How to Get What You Really, Really Want: One of the Deepest Secrets of Zen

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Sat, 06/13/2015 - 20:19

Well, as opposed to so many other articles with such a blatant click-baity title, we’re not going to string you along here. In fact, we’ll give you the answer right now, right in the second sentence: STOP WANTING IT.

That’s it. Want nothing. Choose what shows up instead.

This is the very essence of zen. It is what is meant by the “surrendered state”. Do this, and persist in it long enough, and you will find some incredible things unfolding in your reality, very likely including those that you formerly really, really wanted. The irony? It won’t matter, because you don’t want them anymore! You’ll surely enjoy them while they last, but the terrible need you had for them to give you fulfilment is gone, and you could honestly care less if they showed up or not.

Can you think of a more pure definition of freedom?

Maybe the Scenery Is Moving

God said:

Life is easy. You think life is hard, yet life is easy. Life goes on as if by itself, sort of a wind-up toy.

You find yourself here on Earth. With or without your involvement, life takes strides. Your life takes strides. You can’t stop it. The sun rises, and the sun sets. You rise, and you go to sleep. You really can’t set life aside. You can’t control it all, and yet you have some say in it. You can commit yourself to certain directions. You can set your dial to what you want. Then, as with all dials, once you set it, you let it be and go about your business. Life has those elements that are as if you are riding a train.

You cannot set your life manually and manage every detail of it, for letting go is also a part of living life. Whether you let life be or you hold on tight, life goes its merry way and takes you with it. It is also part of life that you not know much ahead of time and be surprised at what life brings.

Once you lived in one town, and now you live in another. Or, once you lived in one country, and now you live in another country on the other side of the world. You may have made a conscious decision. Sometimes you wonder if you are the actual decider. You had say, yet it seems that somehow you got where you are as if propelled. You are riding in a jet plane to a destination known or unknown. You are all set either by your jurisdiction or by one kind of decree or another.

Out Of Our Own Backyards – Rethinking The Future Of Food

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Sat, 06/13/2015 - 15:31

The following article is an excerpt from my new book titled Rethink, Your world, Your future, which  has just been released.

Buying Local Can be Difficult

Buying local these days can be difficult, as most of the food in supermarkets travels thousands of miles. An example of the lunacy of the current food system is highlighted by a 2007 study conducted by Melbourne’s Centre for Education and Research in Environmental Strategies, or CERES. The study found that the average Australian basket of food has travelled over 70,000 kilometres from producer to consumer. The study analyzed 29 different food items purchased at a typical supermarket. These items included fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy, and non-core food items such as chocolate. Typical across the globalized food system, the food in the basket of goods had been transported by road within Australia and by ship from other countries. Apart from the high transport miles, the energy which goes into the production of the products can also be far more significant in terms of global carbon emissions.

Breathtaking Drone Footage Of Sudan’s Forgotten Nubian Pyramids

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Sat, 06/13/2015 - 08:42

Amazing drone footage released last month from National Geographic Engineer Alan Turchik shows the world some excellent shots of the Northern Sudan’s 3000 year old pyramids.

Pyramids today remain a complete mystery to researchers, archaeologists, and scientists alike. Theories have have been put forth, but we still don’t have a concrete notion of how they were built or by whom, or even what their purpose is. There are still several questions that remain unanswered, which is why many of them are considered to be some of the greatest ancient unsolved mysteries in human history.

One of the most fascinating things about the pyramids is the fact that they have been discovered all over the world. They range in size but are remarkably similar in construction, and are known to have been built by several ancient civilizations – in several different time periods – all of which were completely unaware of each other’s existence. It’s truly remarkable and mind-blowing when you think about it, isn’t it?

Croatia Forgives Debt Of 60,000 Poor Citizens

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Sat, 06/13/2015 - 08:39

Source: www.collective-evolution.com | Original Post Date: February 11, 2015 –

We live in a world where so many of us are ruled by debt. We work long hours to earn as much as we possibly can but still find ourselves drowning in mortgage payments and credit card bills. As far away as “freedom” may be for most of us, it is still a distant light at the end of the tunnel – something that is attainable… eventually.

In a bold move to help those whose light faded long ago, the Croatian government – under the leadership of its Prime Minister Zoran Milanovic – has decided to forgive the debt of 60,000 of its poorest citizens. Meaning that 60,000 Croatians will be given the opportunity for a fresh start, something that the Croatian government hopes will both set them personally on the right path and also stimulate the country’s economy through new spending.

Daily Message ~ Saturday June 13, 2015

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Sat, 06/13/2015 - 08:35

Your old belief systems are so limiting! When you believe things are so black or white, you miss out on the myriad of possibilities in between. For example, you think you work during the week and you enjoy life on the weekend. Why on earth would you accept such a model? Why would you accept only having the potential for enjoyment two days out of a whole week?

Why not step back and take an observant viewpoint of what you have accepted for yourselves? Many belief systems are so deeply ingrained, they run in the background, much like a virus on your computer that has not been discovered, affecting the ease and joy of your experience. How are you limiting yourself? How are you accepting much less than what your true potential is? How are you playing it small? What opportunities are you missing due to beliefs you have adopted that likely were not even yours in the first place?

Thrive, Dear Ones! Enjoy! Live! Create new paradigms, new beliefs. Know that if you try something and it doesn’t feel right for you, you can try something else. Grab the reins and guide your life expression in a way that delights you! You are in the realm of experience for a reason. ~Archangel Gabriel
