For those who are spiritually-minded, it’s not uncommon to feel a little disconnected from other people at times.  The experience of loneliness is almost a natural byproduct of spiritual awakening.  Though we might be connected to our inner guidance system, we might also feel a little displaced in modern civilization where materialism, consumerism and negativity often reign supreme.  If you are going through an awakening process, or if you already have, then you will certainly know what it feels like to be rejected by the herd.

So how do we maintain a feeling of unity with everyone, while also feeling like we are emotionally separated from everyone?

Quiet yourself, quiet the ‘inner chatter’ of everyday life. What do you hear? The Universe has a rhythm all its own, a lovely melody just for you if you take the time to listen. ~ Creator

Modern medicine has failed miserably at treating antibiotic resistant superbugs. Widespread use of antibiotics in farming as well as antibacterial agents have promoted the growth of dangerous superbugs for decades which could leave millions vulnerable to untreatable illness within a generation. A recipe for an eye salve found in the British Library in a 10th-century book of Anglo-Saxon medical advice may hold the natural solution to which conventional medicine has not been able to address.

While infections are becoming increasingly difficult to beat, no new class of antibiotic has been discovered since 1987. In contrast, a new infection emerges on an almost yearly basis.

Enjoying an unhurried meal may have more advantages than previously thought. In a world of increasing speed, the idea of leisurely savoring a bite to eat can seem just plain crazy. But ancient wisdom, modern science and a grassroots movement have all come to the same conclusion: eating mindfully is good for us.

Mindful Eating – The Pleasure of Leisure

Epicurus (b.341 BCE) is most famously known for his freewheeling indulgence of pleasure. Founding a school in Athens called the “Garden,” he has long been associated with gluttony and excess. Nevertheless, the reputation of Epicurus isn’t entirely accurate. He did advocate a life of intelligent pleasure, which was coupled with the wisdom that simplicity will bring the greatest joy. Jules Evans of Philosophy For Life explains:

“In seeking to restore an experience of oneness between your children and yourself, the path leads by way of the discovery of communion with your own forgotten self. This is the case because establishing a meaningful partnership with your children will inevitably cause you to attend to the development of your own authentic being. As your growing awareness disintegrates the parent-child hierarchy, it will spontaneously equalize the playing field in your family. Moving away from egoic behavior- surrendering your opinions of how situations ‘ought’ to be, and how people ‘should’ act- will allow you to step off your pedestal of dominance.” ~ Shefali Tsabary, Phd, author “The Conscious Parent”

Intention is a powerful tool. It is like setting your destination in your internal gps. When you get clear about your intention, you are stating to the universe what you wish to create or experience. You are choosing your path, and expressing yourself in your authentic power. If you do not know exactly what you wish to create, you can simply intend to surrender into the flow for your highest good. It can be as simple as that, Dear Ones, to chart a course to a life that is in line with what you truly wish to experience. ~Archangel Gabriel

Does consciousness create the material world? Before we answer this question, it’s important to first go into what the material world is actually composed of at a fundamental level. “Reality” is not simply made of tiny physical pieces, like a bunch of marbles or tiny little bowling balls. Molecules are made out of atoms, and atoms are made out of subatomic particles such as protons and electrons which are 99.99999% empty space and electrical spin. These are then made out of quarks, which then are a part of a Superstring field which consists of vibrating strings that give rise to fundamental particles based on the nature of their vibration.

We interact with a world of physical objects, but this is only due to the way our brains translate sensory data. At the smallest and most fundamental scales of nature, the idea of “physical reality” is non-existent...

END OF WAR   There has been much talk in your Realm of the need for war to maintain peace. Many of you have come to believe this is true. We disagree and ask that you open your eyes and hearts to allowing others to walk the Paths of their choice.

These wars not only exist on global levels, but within families, close relationships, co-workers, those you meet casually and within your own self. There are increasing instances such as road rage where fights, sometimes leading to death, ensue between strangers over trivial issues.

How can you help end this madness? Maintain inner peace at all times. No matter what another says or does, allow it to be, without getting caught up in the swirl of negative emotions that will surely take you out of balance. When possible, excuse yourself from the situation, go into the bathroom or a quiet space and regain your inner composure.

Realize that each person acts and reacts from his set of belief codes. Question the codes within yourself that make you want to lash back. Are there past events that have you continually reacting in the same manner in similar situations? You have the ability to change your mind, attitude and actions and begin to act differently in these situations. Once you have become a peace-full person, you will then become a role model for others.
