The two first videos I watched this morning blew my mind. I do not want natural disasters. I do not want World War III. Other human beings DO want these things. You might even say we do not have control over whether they happen or not. You might say we have DIRECT INFLUENCE on whether they become reality or not.
it is up to you to decide. Its just a choice. That is all we have. Fear or Love. What are you going to do about it?
The two following videos have nearly confirmed what I have been talking about lately. They cast grave shadows on this bright day, but that is where you come in. You have the power to change the world. This is the first step: KNOWING.
3/9/12 - 7.1 Earthquake Vanuatu - one year ago TODAY almost to the hour! 3/9/11 off Japan... two days before the megaquake 9.0 that created the tsunami/Fukishima disaster
and what do we have here? Oh yeah, the Sun and its crazy X-Class flares and CMEs... you think we're all connected? Damn straight. Do you hear them beating the war drums?
I am going to present some deep, far out stuff here... literally. ^This first video is by a researcher named Danny Wilten. He has many theories on consciousness, life, space, etc. which are all fun to hear, but sometimes he gets caught up with pictures of space and seeing things in them; he talks about a holographic universe, but then uses 2-D pictures to identify images or symbols that supposedly relate to us and spirituality... that's where he loses me a bit, but I'm telling you, there is something substantial in the path this is all leading down. That being said, I must give credit to Wilten as he does find some gems of old and new videos and then makes good commentary ones like the first two videos I am linking to. The man featured speaking in video #2, below, is named Bill. He knows his shit. He makes reading the Bible exciting and links it to common sense, ancient knowledge, and deeper questions. A great piece of the puzzle...
I do not know much about 7th Day Adventists, but since seeing this video, I want to know more. Where did they get the kickass computer graphic program to travel through space in?! Since when is Heaven just a little place in a random Nebula in our run-of-the-mill Milky Way Galaxy? Which day is the 7th Day... REALLY? Why is everyone white with grey hair in your pictures? Who is Ellen G White... REALLY?
Though much of this seems batshit crazy and irrelevant, let me tell you, it is SANE and REAL. What does Orion mean to us? What does the word Orion mean? Well, ORI means a couple things:
1) Ori is a metaphysical concept important to Yoruba spirituality and way of life. Ori, literally meaning "head," refers to one's spiritual intuition and destiny. It is the reflective spark of human consciousness embedded into the human essence, and therefore is often personified as an Orishain its own right . In Yoruba tradition, it is believed that human beings are able to heal themselves both spiritually and physically by working with the Orishas to achieve a balanced character, or iwa-pele. When one has a balanced character, one obtains an alignment with one's Ori or divine self.
2) Ori is the DNA sequence that signals for the origin of replication, sometimes referred to simply as origin. In E. coli, ori is some 250 nucleotides in length for the chromosomal origin (oriC). The plasmid orisequences are similar to oriC.
The Orion Nebula is the birthplace of stars. Is it where we come from? The Orion constellation was thought of as Osiris by the Ancients... the star Sirius was thought of as Isis. Who else thinks things about Orion? Is this what the Vatican doe not want us to know? If our Sun was created there, does it still have connections to it? Will we gain higher consciousness from a our Sun as it gains power from Orion to evolve into its 5th Dimension? Is this why it is acting to volatile? Is our Sun going to change into a Red Giant Star near the end of this year? Will the electromagnetism kill the weak? Will it raise up the rest of us ready to ascend into higher realms?
Let's take a short trip to see what we're talking about. These are REAL images from the HUBBLE spacecraft... breathtaking.
END OF PART ONE... to be continued. If you have any information or comments regarding the themes memes and other content presented in this post, please leave a comment, contact me, or leave a link for others to follow. This discussion is endless... really.
Rachel Corrie is a special woman who though only lived 23 years, stood for an old, wise, and compassionate life; peace for all. She was an American student, serving with the International Solidarity Movement with fellow international activists in the occupied territory of the Gaza Strip, Palestine. She was murdered by an Israeli bulldozer as she stood in between it and a Palestinian family's home.
Here are here letters and journal, a terrific read: http://www.ifamericansknew.org/download/rachels_letters.pdf
At the age of 10, "international activist" was on Rachel's list of things she want to be when she grew up. This is the 5th grade speech she gave that will forever echo the halls of peace...
I do a lot of my own research on subjects closely related to the main issues here, so when I stumbled upon the story of Rachel Corrie, I asked myself how in the hell have I not heard of Rachel Corrie? And if I do not know about her story, who does?! An innocent peace activist American killed by a foreign army while they occupy another people's land? And what did the US Govt do about it? What did they do for the Corrie family? Why did the media companies ignore this? Why am I just finding out now? What else has Israel Defense Forces done that I do not know about?
Well, thing is, more people that I thought know about Rachel Corrie and her story has been made into documentaries and plays and still I have to ask, who knows about this? Not enough people. That's who. Now you do and now it is your turn to share this, with just one person that's fine. Thank you... okay, so I truly cannot do her life justice with my words, so I have compiled the most compelling videos I could find. The first video is a full-length documentary entitled, "Rachel: An American Conscience" that shines the best light I have seen shown on the Israeli occupation of Palestine.
The remaining videos are short news pieces and a look into the international hit play, "My Name Is Rachel Corrie"
This last video here ^^^ is the only video I could find relating to Rachel from the Israeli point of view. He seems to be an author, pushing his book, but he is an obvious Israel supporter who also touches on the MV Rachel Corrie humanitarian aid flotilla which was intercepted by Israeli Defense Forces commandos who were enforcing the blockade of Gaza.
Here is a link to http://www.rachel-corrie.com/ which hosts a thought provoking article on Jessica Lynch & Rachel Corrie. One was a soldier for the USA, one was a peace activist for human rights. One was rescued and showered with attention, while the other was murdered, our Govt sat quite while the Israeli Defense Ministry held its own investigation (going back on the agreement with the US on behalf of the Corrie family for an independent case) and there was a near total media blackout.
This article, from Israel's "#1 source for news," but I am not one to trust any mainstream news source anymore, so take it fwiw, but it is the most recent news I could find about the civil case taking place in Israel ~ http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/145588#.TzdxvpjlcSE and here is an LA Times story citing the Corrie family stating there is evidence that Israel is witholding. The contrast on the Comments sections of these two stories is amazing to see... http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/babylonbeyond/2011/07/israel-corrie-parents-say-israel-withholding-evidence-in-wrongful-death-suit.html
Israeli government officials I'm sure are not too happy that Iran recently named a street after Rachel Corrie... http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/aug/11/iran-street-rachel-corrie
and I do want to find this documentary for sure^^^ please post information in the Comments section if you know where to see the documentary talked about in the video above. Thanks ~ ah! look what I found a great Trailer for the documentary in question, RACHEL and three short clips from the film ~
If you've digested all of this info about Rachel, Gaza, Israel, ISM, the investigation, the trial, what is means today, what is means to you, and what it means for our futures... I ask only one thing: whatever thoughts pop into your head after experienceing and knowing this now, will you act on them? Even the slightest gestures can have long-standing effects that ripple into the unknown and continue to add to all the wonderful opportunities we can choose from.
Thank you for your attention. In solidarity, in peace, in love until All are Free. Thank you Rachel Corrie for your service in the name of peace. Thank you to the Corrie Family continuing to fight and spreading the good message; "They are Us, We are Them"

I was going to purchase another 1 or 3 month membership to Bikram yesterday, I really was, but after 20 days of the 30-Day challenge, my heart is not in it anymore. I physically feel amazing, but it has gotten to be just too much yoga. My schedule became dictated by when my yoga class was and its just so darn repetitive. It feels like a perfectly natural end to a great yoga cycle.
I am looking forward to not breathing the dirty Bikram air during the day time. I want to spend more time at the beach... ah, who am I kidding, I totally need to move down there. I love me my South Park, but gosh darn there's nothing like that ocean breeze.
OB Pier > shore
And for some reason I am not as enthusiastic about posting a somewhat-naked picture of myself on the web as I was last time. But oh well, I said I would and it is important to follow through with what you say. I need to go tanning asap.
So in hindsight, I would not recommend a 30-Day Bikram Challenge to new Bikram students, but if you've been practicing a while and have yet to do it, go for it. If you so choose to do one, you should be somewhat versed in the practice and be physically confident and competent for what you will be asked to endure because it was mentally exhausting. IMO, Bikram should be a MWF-type thiing or even once a week every Saturday morning or something... but everyone is different and that is what is great about Bikram, ANYONE can do it. I think a 20-day run at the challenge was good for where I am in my practice. I will continue yoga in whatever form fits for now and Bikram will always be part of my life somehow. I would love to just own a studio, run it, take a class here and there... now that I think of it, South Park doesn't have one anywhere near, hmmm....
As the NFL season ended, so did a great streak of Bikram yoga for me too end. It was trying, trying, and more trying... I pushed myself further than I had ever gone, I failed miserably, I conquered triumphantly, and I locked eyes with beauty. Not only did I make my body stronger, but my mind has benefitted substantially. I take all that I have learned and will cherish this springboard.
Enough with all this namaste talk, I'll leave you all with this one thought from my experience: One class of Bikram yoga is more beneficial to you than watching every SuperBowl ever played. That's how I spent my SuperBowl Sunday 2012... CAMEL POSE for the wiiiiiiiiiiin, it's gooood.
CMEs along with an alignment set for 3/11? Is it possibly happening?
Check out the NASA SOHO footage
So, to update this post with brand new information stating that the Sun has released CMEs that are the largest in 5 years (they said the one around 1/22/12 was the largest in 7 years, check my old post about that if you want). Is this DUE to the pending alignment event? DUE to the 2nd Sun's approach? All I know is that I am excited for next week! Gonna prep the rest of this week and hit it hard this SUN Day. Magna Adoria ;)
^This is how our solar system was on the day of my birth, at the time of my birth. Here is another perspective...
Below is Valentine's Day, February 14, 1980, which was a leap year as is 2012.
Wanna see the future? K, this is Valentine's Day 2012. Just for kicks...
^ Is that not a beautiful arc of planets? Its gonna be a hot n heavy day, thats for sure. With Jupiter holding both Venus and Mercury close... and Mars hovering close above Earth.
Now that I've set you up, I must bring you down. Down to Earth in the here and now. You must realize that humans have very little control, if any, over anything in our consciousness. That minuscule amount is very powerful, yes, but it must be understood from its origin (whatever yours is, and that is yours only to discover, a blessing IMO). It must be humble and know it is nothing before it can be something substantial and fulfilling for not only you, but others. The rest of our fate rests in our solar system, galaxy, and ultimately the universe. That being said, I believe there is a very good chance that our Sun is part of a binary star system. That means there is a 2nd Sun (Sun2).
DUN DUN DUNNNNNN!!!!
In 1983, IRAS (Infared Astronomical Satellite) found a "heavenly body" that they were not sure what it was, but that it was at the most 40 degrees above absolute Zero. That means it cannot be detected by regular telescopes. It would be classified as a Brown Dwarf Star or a Dead Star, which emits no light or heat... unless it gets warmed up by its long, lost brother. Here is the original article:
And the text, so you can read it:
(This story was pulled in December 1983)…
1983 Washington Post “Front Page” Story -
Mystery Heavenly Body Discovered
a front page story 31-Dec-1983
A heavenly body possibly as large as the giant planet Jupiter and possibly so close to Earth that it would be part of this solar system has been found in the direction of the constellation Orion by an orbiting telescope aboard the U.S. infrared astronomical satellite. So mysterious is the object that astronomers do not know if it is a planet, a giant comet, a nearby “protostar” that never got hot enough to become a star, a distant galaxy so young that it is still in the process of forming its first stars or a galaxy so shrouded in dust that none of the light cast by its stars ever gets through. “All I can tell you is that we don’t know what it is,” Dr. Gerry Neugebauer, IRAS chief scientist for California’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and director of the Palomar Observatory for the California Institute of Technology said in an interview. The most fascinating explanation of this mystery body, which is so cold it casts no light and has never been seen by optical telescopes on Earth or in space, is that it is a giant gaseous planet, as large as Jupiter and as close to Earth as 50 billion miles. While that may seem like a great distance in earthbound terms, it is a stone’s throw in cosmological terms, so close in fact that it would be the nearest heavenly body to Earth beyond the outermost planet Pluto. “If it is really that close, it would be a part of our solar system,” said Dr. James Houck of Cornell University’s Center for Radio Physics and Space Research and a member of the IRAS science team. “If it is that close, I don’t know how the world’s planetary scientists would even begin to classify it.”
The mystery body was seen twice by the infrared satellite as it scanned the northern sky from last January to November, when the satellite ran out of the supercold helium that allowed its telescope to see the coldest bodies in the heavens. The second observation took place six months after the first and suggested the mystery body had not moved from its spot in the sky near the western edge of the constellation Orion in that time. “This suggests it’s not a comet because a comet would not be as large as the one we’ve observed and a comet would probably have moved,” Houck said. “A planet may have moved if it were as close as 50 billion miles but it could still be a more distant planet and not have moved in six months time.
Whatever it is, Houck said, the mystery body is so cold its temperature is no more than 40 degrees above “absolute” zero, which is 459 degrees Fahrenheit below zero. The telescope aboard IRAS is cooled so low and is so sensitive it can “see” objects in the heavens that are only 20 degrees above absolute zero. When IRAS scientists first saw the mystery body and calculated that it could be as close as 50 billion miles, there was some speculation that it might be moving toward Earth. “It’s not incoming mail,” Cal Tech’s Neugebauer said. “I want to douse that idea with as much cold water as I can.”
So, why is this so important? And yes, I could be so wrong and brainwashed that this is a complete waste of energy. But what if I am right?
^ The video above is the trailer for a movie named "Melancholia" (watch in full-screen for better viewing). Now, I know what you're thinking... "its just a movie. wow, John is brainwashed by the movie industry?! its just art." But no. Hollywood has been in the business of foreshadowing, not only in their stories, but for and to our civilization. The best example is the pilot episode of The Lone Gunmen, which tells a chilling story of what is basically the day of September 11, 2001.
What I am saying is that the event passing (or psyop if you're that paranoid) known as Comet "ELENIN" can be translated into being what the Hopi Prophecy calls the "Blue Kachina" a harbinger for the "Red Kachina". Notice that Melancholia in the movie is blue... because Lars Von Trier is mimicking the Blue Kachina as a whistleblower hidden in plain sight telling us what is to come? Or it would be too obvious if he had made it red, right? Or the movie execs said, "blue is nicer"? Whatever. The point is if Elenin (some say it is an acronym for Extinction Level Event Nemesis Is Near) is really a warning and our 2nd Sun is the Red Kachina and from what my research tells me, it is exactly a year behind Elenin... here are some "predictions" - trust me, I am not that serious about wanting to have "predictions" but they're merely thoughts and fears, but ultimately HOPES that I am wrong and nothing physically happens with a failed star system moving right through our system, disrupting everything we've ever known and probably causing a full pole shift that will bring about change to our existence that we cannot fathom right now.
1) The March 21-23 date that coincides with the 188-day Earthquake cycle is correct, but I expect major activity in addition, between March 11-14, 2012 when Sun2 and Earth are aligned with the Sun. The point where the blue line and yellow line cross is the location of Sun2 just about 2/3rds of the way between Jupiter and Mars.
2) "If Sun2 is real, we're going to see it sooner or later, right?" Yes, we will see it eventually. But even though it is approximately 3x the size of Jupiter, that means it is still dwarfed by the real Sun. It will not be peacefully moving across the background of our Moon as Melancholia was so gracefully portrayed on film. Sun2 will not do us any favors with its backdoor approach and will likely remain unseen until... you guessed it, the Summer Solstice of 2012! As you can see, Sun2 will be pushing Mars' orbit line and directly aligned with Mercury and the Sun. If this is not the date we can see Sun2 with the naked eye or telescopes in the daytime, it must at least be when we become aware of it on a mass level.
3) I cannot think of a better (or worse) way for Mainstream Media (MSM) to cause mass panic and sorrow than to formally announce Sun2 is inbound on my Mother's birthday, give or take a day or two. Do not worry Mom, I gotcha covered if you so choose. That's also a good point to bring up: there is no right or wrong way to be in this near future. Everyone has their own choice and destiny, so please do not try to force others to do what you want them to do or feel sad if it does not go according to your expectations.
Disclosure will be something like the movie Deep Impact (there he goes mistaking movies for real life again...) do you remember Deep Impact? Before I get into that, here's me Mum's b-day alignments. As you can see, Sun2 will be on the heels of Venus's orbit and IMO, many of us will be in survival and/or panic mode by now. Not the masses, but the smart ones. There is also a long, long alignment with Jupiter>Sun> Mars and a hot date between Venus and Mercury. Sun2 will be right where the dark blue line meets Venus's orbit white line making what is very close to a 4 body alignment of Mars, Sun2, Mercury, Jupiter... all right in the face of our Sun, while we get a front row seat.
4) In Deep Impact, the comet was known by the government as ELE... code name for Extinction Level Event. Just so happened there was one of the first, if not the first portrayed-in-movies African-American President of the USA as played by none other than Morgan Freeman. Our comet Elenin is named after the amateur astronomer who found it, LEOnid Elenin who many believe was a made up character who appeared in a few interviews and shortly ran a website to champion his discorvery ~ http://spaceobs.org. He released cryptic videos and messages and banned anyone who asked "fringe" questions on his site or FB page. Where is Sun2 now and coming from, same as "comet" Elenin? the LEO constellation. Who was the amateur astronomer who found the comet in Deep Impact? LEO Biederman.
^This is the webpage of Leo Elenin. Does the top banner look like anything familiar? On the left hand side, we have a fiery, menacing red thing and if you pan to the right of the banner, well, lo n behold, its a blueish comet-like object leading the way. Hmmm... you think Leo is just playing with colors? Or playing off the Hopi prophecy of the Red and Blue Kachinas? just another funny coincidence, right?
So, by August, earthquakes and other natural disasters will be occurring quite regularly around the world. The pole of magnetic North will be retreating further and further into and past Russia. Yes, this is why its so warm this summer because where you are is moving to what we now think of as "south" at a very rapid rate - imagine if Chicago were to end up near the Equator!? That would be awesome, actually. No more shoveling when I am home for the Holidays... here is where Sun2 will be on September 24, 2012. Perfect timing along with the Autumnal Equinox, many believe Sept 24-27 will be three days of darkness as Sun2 passes directly in front of the Earth in between the Sun. The darkness will be what we choose, ultimately, but the term is being used because Earth's magnetic field will be so greatly compromised that we could lose all electronic capabilities. Frequency and perception will be compromised in all beings and things. In my eye, the power of this time will overwhelm us to a humbling degree. I hope it is true and that we gather with our loved ones and be with each other sharing and appreciating all that we have ever had. I hope we sing and make love in the candlelight. I hope it is the dying days of our maddening "society" we have created up until today, thus giving way to a new era of not only global consciousness, but universal consciousness, compassion, and above all, love. Sun2's force will unhinge the ground crust from the bearing of Earth's core. A pole shift will occur first which could actually only last merely hours as an event, but will shake humanity beyond its imagination.
^ As you can see, above shows how the Earth will be all alone as Sun2 approaches. Follow the yellow line up until it hits the bright blue line. That, in between Earth and the Sun, is where Sun2 will be. In my hopes, I feel that if there is any planet made to withstand the passing of a brown dwarf star, its Earth and its fragile, yet collectively invincible life-force.
That leads me to my final number and point. 5) Whether this happens or not, the dates I've listed above can be used as markers, milestones, or goal achievement dates. I dream of and believe for a new consciousness. That is what I truly believe all of this really is. Whether the system we're in is really a Binary Star system and the world as we know it will end this year, sooner than we think, or it is all a reflection of the global awakening and coming ascension into a higher realm of being? Some say a lot of us are already in the 4th Dimensional Earth consciousness... Some are still stuck in a 1D realm of complete ignorance, some manage to survive (if you want to call it that) in the old 3D reality (the new version of 3D is a Matrix-style tyrannical one-world government that implants chips into everyone's bodies and tracks everything they do, yes, the FDA approved VeriChip implants for medical record use yesterday, Google it) and then there is the next great level that will bring peace and prosperity to all and that is the 5th Dimension Earth. In my eye, that means that we have the usual 3D reality, that will not change, but our 4th Dimension will be an expected norm where each individual has their own powers of lucid dreaming, OBEs, astral projection, and telepathy-like skills. The 5th Dimension will be the last link of awareness as all of humanity actually knows we are all the same, we have nothing to fear, we are the reflection of true love and we then give up all hate and violence, and the world is flooded with unconditional love. We will have the power as individuals and as a group, not linked together by taxes, war, or even good things like trade, but ARE together by knowing, understanding, and being at all times.
We say things now like, "you can do anything you want if you put your mind to it" or "there is no limit to what you can be" and those sayings are true, but I think not until we continue to make enough strides over the rest of 2012 will we be able to achieve heights beyond what we can imagine now. We should be proud, ashamed, and all of those things of our past until now. We're animals, right? Well, we are, but we are eternal love manifested into souls of eternity who happen to have chosen a human body to occupy. I believe we are all meant to be here or not be here for a reason and it all leads to this up coming moment. Find your love. Find your truth. Find yourself and find peace. If we all do this individually, we will all be ready for what is to come.
If you are reading this... thank you. If any of this resonates with you, please do your own research and do not take my word on any of this as fact. It is purely my interpretation of what I think I know. Be prepared on all levels.
*This is a diagram of how the solar system looks today. Pretty cool alignments everywhere, eh?! I love it.
Today is the start of the 3rd week of my Bikram 30 Day Challenge. Technically, due to what I feel in hindsight was acute food poisoning, I missed my 12th day class. So, I went 11 classes in 11 days and not only rested on the 12th day, but received a deep tissue massage and infrared sauna treatment. It helped A TON! Yesterday I had a great class on Day 13 and am very ready to hit up the 430pm class today. Just because I missed a day does not deter me from continuing, but it did disappoint me for a moment. I felt foolish that I did not prepare well enough. My body was not ready for the onslaught of so much physical exertion with the same diet I was on while doing far less Bikram...
I have learned my lesson and adjusted accordingly. Let's just say that the first 11 days were like the first period of the hockey game that is this challenge. My mind is stronger. The body? By far stronger, especially after the most intense massage I have ever experienced. I was riving in pain, yet laughing and thanking Erin while she took my breath away at moments. As she pulled me back to the middle of the table, I knew that I was in this place for a reason... right place, right time no doubt.
As I lay under a tube-like contraption, sweating balls, I had a moment where I snapped into consciousness... "was I just sleeping? wait, no... how long has it been so far? I can breathe out of my nose completely now. yes!" and then this song came on...
I started to laugh... I was instantaneously transported back to the USS Ogden (LPD-5) and the nights I would have free time to myself. I would take my headphones and Incubus' "Morning View" cd out onto the Forecastle. I would lay down and marvel at the stars while floating in whatever ocean or sea we were in at the time. In the middle of the Indian Ocean, I remember having the epiphany of seeing a night sky so full of stars, more than I had ever seen while standing on land... I knew we were not alone. My heart fills with joy every time I hear this song or feel that feeling.
I left Spa & Etc. to pick up the Honda which was receiving a new seatbelt clasp so the Airbag light would shut off. Good thing there is nothing wrong with the airbag, I guess. I knew that it was okay that I missed my 12th day in the Bikram 30 Day challenge. The experience I just received was nearly as physically demanding as a Bikram class itself! I was sore yesterday from her masochistically genius hands, but a Bikram class evened everything out.
I feel better than ever today. I hope you do too. Here's to another 11 days and beyond!
Above is a video of our Sun from the last couple days (open in YouTube and watch in Fullscreen). I have watched our Sun for years via the SOHO satellite cameras and others from NASA. I have NEVER seen a "white out" like this. The Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) from the northern hemisphere of the Sun is super-massive. Mainstream media is reporting it is the largest in 7 years. Well, I have not been watching everyday for the last 7 years, but even if that is true. This is amazing. I checked the solar system orbit diagram and there is no planetary alignments that would/could trigger this. It HAS to be something else. What is it? Why is the Sun doing this? And if someone tells me that the Sun is not the reason for "global warming" or the current weather anomalies and earthquakes, I'm gonna slap you. Not YOU, but you know what I mean... here's a picture showing the last 4 days and 4 consecutive 6.0+ earthquakes. This is NOT good. This MUST be monitored. And we MUST be AWARE of this.
We have not come this far to be an ignorant, helpless race of carbon-based consumers. NO! I will not stand for it. We are capable, strong, spiritual beings that can take out lives into our own hands. We can have FORESIGHT and trust in ourselves. I know that all that we see and all that we use to make these decisions might be manipulated. We might be playing right into some sick game, but I know that we were born with good instincts and healthy intuition. When you know something in your HEART (yes, I am in a capitalization mood today) you just know it.
Above is a picture of what our solar system will look like on March 11th of this year. My cursor is positioned at where the Blue Kachina (Comet ELENIN ~ some say that stands for Extinction Level Event Nibiru/Nemesis Is Near) was located exactly one year from the day, March 11th, 2011. If the theory is correct, this is where the Red Kachina will be on 3/11/12, in direct alignment with Earth and the Sun.
So, if you read my previous blog entry entitled, "Women & Children First..." and you saw the picture for March 22nd, 2012 with an alignment of (possibly, the Red Kachina)>Earth>Mercury>Sun and how that correlates with the 188-day Earthquake cycle... AND the Spring Equinox, then we can put this all together and say March is going to be revelatory. To say the least... I hope we can see the truth. I hope we can make the necessary changes in our daily lives to be with the ones that matter most. Whether a Second Sun is coming to flip our world upside down and press the Reset button, or this is all just a figment of our collective imagination and a reflection of our consciousness ascension into another dimension, follow your heart.... follow your Anu. Follow the love energy that makes you wake up everyday with a reason to live and laugh and be human.
This is the greatest time to be alive. I love you all. Peace. ~ JVR
Before my decision to do the Bikram 30-Day challenge last Monday, I had only done two consecutive classes in two consecutive days at the most. I have been practicing on & off since 2002/2003 abouts, but my mind never felt strong enough to make the decision to go further than what I thought was tough enough already. I am so thankful that something inside of me has pushed for all these years to help me maintain a practice and/or curiosity to stay with and keep coming back to Bikram.
These past 7 days have been a blur of emotions, up & down, and all around. I have hit lower points in my practice this week than I had in years (Day 3 was the biggest challenge) and higher points than ever too (last night's Standing Bow Pulling pose was other worldly... and I almost fainted I fell so deep into it, I started laughing it was so crazy).
The picture above is not me, but that's the pose I had most fun with. I can say humbly enough that my deepest point of this pose was deeper than this Gentleman is doing, so I pat myself on the back for that one. Also, Camel pose is just something else too. When you can do it and breathe and push yourself under the circumstances, it invigorates your soul to a point where you just cannot explain it. Transcendent.
My legs feel stronger than EVER before. "Lock the knee, lock the knee, lock the kneeeeeee.... and change." And I can feel my feet changing and evolving. I have always had problems with my feet and calf muscles cramping up, but not much more at all now. I still have issues with my back. As you can see from poses like the Camel pose above, the lower back is of main focus for a lot of the Bikram class. I take precautions in and out of class to support my back. Its a DAILY thing that keeps changing and evolving but its my back and with kids gloves, (I think and hope) its getting stronger... or at least not worse than it already is. Thanks US Navy...
Day 8 is here. I have a feeling that Week 2 is going to be pretty much like Week 1. Starts off fine, but by Wednesday I'm going to want to runaway and hide... then by Saturday I'll feel like a zillion bucks. I must say though, it feels like its consuming a lot of time... A LOT OF TIME. Like, all I do or think of is eating enough to maintain energy, then NOT eating for about 2.5 hours before class (whenever that may be, I cannot pick a time to save a squirrel's life) and then class>then recovery and sleep. Even if I do not make 30 days, whatever may happen, I know I cannot do Bikram every day as a part of my lifestyle. I could see M-W-F no doubt, hands down for sure. But that's a long time from now...
Happy Yoga Monday everyone! "Yogi, fight on! Brothers, sisters roll! Sunlight, ride on! Let's ride on, ride on, ride on!"
I really did NOT want to do this as an entry, especially only as the fourth of this new blog that I have been so blessed to have reached so many people with in so little time. That being said, it made me realize that this information needs to be put out there asap. As you can see in the picture above, the spring equinox (correct me if i am wrong) will bring a great alignment of the Sun>Mercury>Earth. This is also within the window of the 188-day pattern of massive Earthquakes. Some of which have shifted Earth's axis by many inches. Please see this video (objectively, this is not my video and no, I do not agree with all of it and do not know the original uploader personally or have any ties with her whatsoever ~ just using it as an informational tool) ~
Please note that I hinted at this and wrote about alignments and a possible binary dwarf star to our Sun before this video was made, so the pics below prove that I have further knowledge on the subject and am not just taking this lady's video as all my proof or information source, fwiw. This issue goes deep and it will be up to you whether you want to investigate more or not. Here you can see a couple Facebook posts of mine ~
Now, there is a light at the end of this tunnel! Be hopeful yet prepared and listen to this... there is NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF. Why? How? After you showed me the alignment and video? Who are you foolin'? Right? Well, as you can see in the solar system diagram picture, Mercury is shielding the Earth from the Sun. This might be our saving grace as some theorize that Space is all magnetic. Some feel that all the planets are connected and also with the Sun. If its just our vibration, frequencies, and consciousness rising that is creating this, so be it, but if there is a heavy-mass object making its way to orbit through our solar system, namely a Dwarf (dead) Star that is our Sun's binary star... who knows what could happen. For more information about binary star systems (the norm in the known universe, as opposed to what we believe our Sun is, just a single star flying thru our galaxy) use keywords like - Hopi prophecy, Blue Kachina, Red Kachina, the great year, Nemesis, Tyche, and brown dwarf stars.
As you can see here for the last two axis shifts/megaquakes, Mother Earth was alone and vulnerable in orbit. Mercury is in between us and the Sun on 3/22, so could this be our protection?
Remember, love is the most powerful energy. We can make the choice every moment of our lives to sing love, to be love. Every moment I feel our awareness growing and consciousness expanding. Even if there is a dead star 3x the size of Jupiter about to make an orbit around our Sun that will cause a complete axis shift, I know that we are strong souls that believe in each other and foster love... especially in the times when we realize that nothing material really matters. Not money, not gold, not smartphones, not cars, nor clothes... just each other.
That being said, I might just take a lil 4-day weekend starting March 21st back to Wisco ;) In peace n pot,
For anyone out there that loves eggs, this is for you! Did you know that poaching eggs is the healthiest way to eat them next to crackin' open one of those suckers and downing it raw? Which you can do btw, you will not get salmonella poisoning. You know how I know? Cookie dough... you know you've eaten that stuff a bunch of times. Its all sneaky and fun cuz you were not supposed to when Mom was making cookies, right? No, it was because she worked her ass off all week to pay for the cookie dough and she wanted some chocolate chip cookies you little cookie dough monster!
Holla at me Austin! Vital Farms of Austin, Tejas is the jam. Thanks for doing it right. You have the best "mainstream" eggs in the country. When I do not have enough Federal Reserve Monetary Credits in my account to help out my local farmers at the market, I get these Pasture-Raised, and I capitalize this term because it is VERY important; these Hens are happy and clean-fed vegetation only. I am not promoting Whole Foods here, but they do sell Vital Farms' eggs for a lower-than-you'd expect price. If you cannot afford or attend a local Farmer's Market that sells local eggs, this is the national standard. Check the video:
Check those stats right there^^^!!! Add 2 poached eggs of nearly 120 calories and 12 grams of protein and bam, you're pooping muscles you got so many! My wish for today (apart from everyone in Congress waking up and testifying that they help make sure the internet is a free and fair medium of communication like it is now... for the most part ~ check wikipedia.org for the easiest way to find you local Representatives), is for you to help hens run around and lay fat eggs while giving your body magical powers by buying local, organic, pasture-raised eggs (Vital Farms or something close if you cannot to go a local FM, good luck!) and Bob's dry beans. Dry beans do not lose nearly as much as pre-cooked canned beans, plus, you do not have to worry about BPA-lined aluminum cans messing with your feelings, err, hormones or whatever that nasty shit does to our bodies. Just don't ingest it for any reason.
Eggs, beans, and veggies are compatible with Adobo-type seasoning. Its easy with low salt/high flavor as well. Those Eastern-type seasonings are also good anti-oxidants. Cheap too. Get your grub on clean and lean and deliciously holistic. All is flowing in the right direction today... hope you have a nice ride on this wave. Let's keep it rollin'!
How do you like my old suit? It was custom tailored... one of a kind! I have to wear it every single day. Sometimes I get sick of it, sometimes it looks down right sexy. Sometimes I neglect it, but now I am really taking care of it. You have one too, right?
I am posting this for the world to see because I have started the 30-Day Bikram Yoga Challenge. After last night's wonderful class, the answer popped into my head, "yes, I can do this everyday now." And so it goes, I will try my best to do the most disciplined thing I can do this side of military bootcamp.
I am posting my body picture to contrast how 30 days of Bikram changes it. I am NOT weighing myself as I am not concerned about pounds at all. I believe that unless you are morbidly obese, the number of pounds you carry is not the measuring stick for health. How do you feel? How do your clothes fit? Listen to your body, it speaks to you and does not lie. Currently, I have no idea how much I weigh, but I do know I feel as healthy as ever. I hope this is a topic that most can relate with because I have struggled with my weight and body image since grade school. Not only does Bikram Yoga make my body feel strong and leaner than ever before, but it has helped me shed the fear and doubting mechanisms that had previously haunted me. I do not care anymore what anyone thinks of my body. It is mine and I am the one who has to live in it.
That being said, I will be posting updates along the way and another picture on the morning of Day 31. I will not be doing a class-by-class thing because it will infringe on the other great things we could be talking about and learning from each other. If there are any major changes, slip-ups, or epiphanies along the way I'll be sure to document them along with the weekly run-thru summaries. I will also be posting summaries of what I eat just to keep me honest. I'll tell you right now though, no matter what kind of burritos, pizza, or other non-essential goodies get devoured on top of my usual diet, I start everyday with a Hemp smoothie containing hemp protein powder, hemp milk, coconut milk (sometimes), hemp oil, coconut oil, cinnamon, peanut butter (sometimes), and various leafy greens, veggies, and low-glycemic index fruits like cranberries or pineapple. Also, I take a fish oil supplement everyday mainly for the Docosahexaenoic acid or DHA which is an Omega-3 fatty acid and a primary structural component of the human brain and retina. It is only found in algae or the fish that eat said algae. This is the product I use and it is amazing! http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Chapter-Wholemega-Fish-Oil-1000mg-120-Softgels-/290596097795?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43a8e08f03#ht_1619wt_1165
Here is a finished 30-Day Challenge blog ~ http://www.yoga.com/ydc/enlighten/enlighten_document.asp?ID=458§ion=9&cat=144 ~ if you want to get an idea for what someone goes thru during this time. Its a long read, but the first couple paragraphs have good info. I hope I inspire myself even more to let go and dive deeper... maybe some will follow.
"One step closer to hitting bottom," he whispers with a cheshire grin... JVR
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I intend http://BornInTheCall.blogspot.com to be a space of freedom for anu. I truly had not dreamt of publishing this. Now, i find it funny and unusually completely natural that I be posting this picture and thanking the girl standing on the far-right in the black dress for giving me that final nudge I needed to make this a reality. IT'S CRAZY! right? right? but no, seriously it is. And now, how i look at everything that has ever happened, how I am me and how you are you. We are all imaginations of ourselves. We are surviving bloodlines thru the generations and generations after generations. For all we have lived through and all the possible moments that we can imagine lay ahead. The only thing I can say at this very moment is that I am alive and this is the only thing that exists... this moment, now. Good thing about this moment now is that it is all the previous moments, all the possible moments, and all the impossible moments rolled into one. Its called eternity, or sempiternity as it is commonly known ;) ...and be Love, and be Love.
Without her existence, I would not be occupying this moment for which I am in right now. This is not to diminish the importance of all my family and dear friends who are much closer to me personally, than she is, but the timing, unexpectedness, and weight of her request for me to start a blog was so precise and perfect, I cannot help but marvel at the meaning her intent has borne in my life. She was the only one to say what she said to me. Maybe not the only one to believe it themselves, but the only one to take action. This is a version, right now, of a part of the story, back then, of how this space of my love and reflections came into existence... thanks, JB.
I got the Facebook message from her on the night I returned back home for a funeral. RIP Chuckie...
She is the current author of a site that soothes the soul's sweet tooth, MemoirsFromMorocco. Jaime and I met during the Indian Summer of 1996. She was a friend of a girl that my best friend was trying to "go out with." He succeeded and we had some good times as a circle of friends. During that year especially, we were at some of the same parties, concerts and classrooms, but during that time I am not sure we even had a conversation more than "hey." Not that there was anything wrong with our non-relationship in high school... we were more or less just acquaintances.
Thru the years, heaps 'n heaps came and went, loves and losses, money bought and spent... you know, life. The next time she was on my radar, we were both in California. Being from a 'nowhere-esque Midwestern city, I always kept an eye out for new Californians from "back home" - it became quite easy to do so with the invention of a website named The Facebook. She was in Los Angeles, I in San Diego. She actually started a Kenoshans in Cali FB page way back in the day, I do believe. Nothing more transpired other than noticing her posts from time to time. The extent of our communication might have been one or two "Likes" over a span of years.
That changed a bit when she up and moved to Morocco. She became a devout Muslim and followed her heart. It was shocking and inspiring to me. Around this time I was going thru a metamorph-gnosis myself. I decided to end my enlistment with the United States Navy and become a full-time college student using my GI Bill. I took the chance, which my wife supported, but the transition back to civilian life from 8 years in the military was extremely hard on us. After five years of a solid and loving relationship, not only was it now in a new and uncertain stage, but we were grown a bit, I was world-traveled, twice to the Persian Gulf and I had woken up from the mental haze of "haze grey and underway" military lifestyles/mindcontrol. I had a new perspective on the world and politics that she could never identify with. She was a college graduate with a full-time job and that was a first for us too. I had months of terminal leave and time off before my classes started. Our lives were turned upside down. Within 14 months, we were in marriage counseling, trying to save what we once had...
During the two years since, I have let go of even more. So much... so so so much. It has been addition by subtraction. Shedding the societal skin of indoctrination, airwave and brainwave manipulation. Religion, tradition, guilt, expectations, fears and hopes... truths of those you thought you knew and lies you thought you would never tell yourself again. I have learned the material world truly is a lie. The less stuff I have in my life, the more room I have for peace and happiness. It is all in our minds.
I was introduced to the Pineal Gland in a Bio Psych class during my studies at San Diego City College. It was an 8-week summer course and the only reason I passed the class was that I wrote my Final on the relationship between Poly-Unsaturated Fatty Acids in the diet and Dyslexia, which my professor had confessed she had suffered from as a child. That paper still seems too advanced for me to have been the writer, but I wanted to prove it to her. Also, it had a strong hand in raising my curiosity about essential aminos, Omega 3-6-9, and other nutritional details that I had previously ignored. After her private lessons and my own research, I have come to a conclusion that the Pineal Gland truly is our Third Eye. I will not get into specifics as the research is not very traditional due to the subject's complexity and/or esoteric importance, thus the real knowledge, striking and vast, is being withheld from public forum.
Please do your own research and come up with your own belief. I bring this tiny gland up because it is a symbol of my faith. I have an unwavering faith in myself, my love, and the people in my life that love me. It is a symbol of strength yet fragility, knowledge yet mystery, desire yet spirituality...
On the eve of the infamous year 2012, I flew into Billy MitchelI still a bit in shock from the recent news. I opted to spend my NYE at home. A year previous, I was hootin 'n hollerin' with the Black Keys at The Aragon in Chicago in the midst of a brief affair of Michigan Ave stature... what a difference a, you know, that period of collective days that billions of humans call a "year," makes... But I was happier 16 days ago than I was 381 days ago and all because of the wisdom obtained from following my heart. The heart is a creator who leads with a foe named the mind that refuses to follow...
After a week I will never forget, for good, bad, and everything in between, I returned to this warm tokus of a city located in the ass-end corner of America only to find that I had a lot of work to do. I owe so much to everyone I have met along my way. There is no time to waste on NOT giving back everything and more to the world! Not just your close-knit loves, but it is being part of the ether, the collective unconscious, the zeitgeist, the universe... consciousness itself.
I will be posting EVERYTHING I can without limitations. No fear cavalier. I will be making videos, sharing music, food recipes, quantum ideas, dreams, book readings, live streaming teach-ins, etc etc etc and I can only hope that it will do the same justice and bring the same joy to you, as it does to me.
Lastly, I must give tribute to the name, Born In the Call. I woke up on a certain comfy couch last week with a story in my Inbox. As I tried to peel myself up from the coziness (thanks Bunny) and the fact I was leaving my friends, I read a life-altering story. It was on the subject of pregnant women using Cannabis as an anti-nausea and anti-pain therapy. An extensive study that WILL change the way you look at "medications" during those prego months and beyond. Start here: http://patients4medicalmarijuana.wordpress.com/2009/12/20/marijuana-cannabis-use-in-pregnancy-dr-melanie-dreher/ ~ within the reading I came upon a term, "born in the caul" or born with the amnionic sac intact around the baby, namely the head. Ancient civilizations believed them to be god-sends with heightened spiritual powers.
I believe each one of us is a God-Send and we are evolving to reach our unlimited potential, not only as human beings, but spiritual beings passing thru the human experience. LOVENOW.
