Wisdom of theHeart

by Rev. Danielle Marie Hewitt, Founder & Spiritual Director

I

can remember the day in early October 2007 that I decided to contact the Universal Life Church and apply for a congregation permit.

I had just spent, to no avail, two years searching for a community, a spiritual home, where I could meet and befriend people who, like me, wanted to find some spiritual meaning to their life outside the traditional places that offered not enough answers. Although I was born and somewhat raised United Methodist (we went to church when my grandparents, Rev. and Mrs. H.L. Hewitt came for a visit), traditional religions had far too much dogma, authority and undisputable doctrine for my personal taste. Although I appreciated the warm loving community that could be found in churches (and other such similar houses of worship), I could not, in good conscious, subscribe to the ideals presented and I had too much integrity to simply attend and “pretend” in order to have a place to go. So, necessity being the mother of invention, I decided to create one. A few days later, while sitting at my desk pondering what it would be like to create something like that, it occurred 5

to me I needed a name. Almost immediately “Temple of Light” flashed in my mind. Knowing by now when information comes that quickly and succinctly it is divinely guided. I questioned it not and there it began.

I immediately created a website from a predesigned template and ordered an appliqué for the rear window of my car (which is still there although looking a bit tattered). A friend of mine, who had been out of town for a while, arrived home. After we had coffee together she walked me to my car, saw the sign and declared “You are out of the closet now!”

Today, almost five years later, we are moving into our third physical location (okay fourth if you count my garage office) in the beautiful Irvine Spectrum at 11 Goddard. Words cannot describe how peaceful and fulfilled I feel stepping into what I and all the friends and members of our community have created with our hearts, imagination and purposeful intent.

I could not have imagined five years ago the journey I was about to take building the Temple. >> continued on page 6

My husband and I personally funded the bulk of the founding needs and bless his heart (thank you my dear soul mate) for saying “ y e s ” every time more was needed to build the dream.

For the first few years I will not deny it was a struggle personally, professionally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. My stress levels went up and down like a yoyo; I cried many times and wondered what on earth I had gotten myself into.

A friend of mine who I like to say is very good at putting her personal self-care above everything else witnessed my struggles and kept asking me why I was doing this. My answer was, “….just gotta.” I still don’t have any other answer to that question; I just know it’s my purpose and I cannot imagine doing anything else.

Sometimes I would forget all of the people around me helping to create it and would feel very much alone in the process. One of our members recently sent the following passage to me when she heard me account for some of my past feelings.

As we move into our new location on the first of September these words have given me so much meaning and introspection.

For you see, the Temple of Light is not just a place at 11 Goddard, Irvine, it is in our hearts.

A Temple is a gathering place and we are beings of light who carry that light in our heart space. We are each individually a Temple of Light. I never needed to create it as a building; I only ever needed to know it is here with me all the time and I had only to allow it to be expressed outside of myself.

The wisdom of the heart far exceeds the mind. I know that now.

“I cannot create the Temple alone. The Temple is not an edifice constructed of stone or glass, made by human hands like a church or a mosque. This is a moveable Temple, exists between worlds, transparent, fragile and fleeting. It is created with love and magic out of the dreams and visions of men and women with open hearts.We come together and hold the intention to create it, for a moment, for an hour, for a day and it suddenly appears. When we let it go again, it vanishes back into the mists of time. It is ever new and never the same. It exists for us because we join together and say “YES”.”-- Maggie Tapert 6

2012 Through the Eyes Of the Akashic Records

by Barbara Schiffman

According to Albert Einstein, “People who believe in physics know that the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.”

Metaphysicians also understand everything is composed of interwoven wavelengths and what we think, feel, say and do is recorded in a vibrational library often called the Akashic Records.

As Catherine Morris wrote in Radiance (July/August 2012), the Akashic Records are a field of energy extending far beyond what humans perceive with our five senses. Harry Reed, director of the Edgar Cayce Institute for Intuitive Studies, agrees and states, “If there is any one truth from the legacy of the Cayce readings, it would be there is a spiritual dimension to humans, something beyond time and space.”

I believe the Records are an archive of our Souls’ collective journeys through all lifetimes, i.e. humanity’s spiritual body encompassing all physical, mental and emotional energy fields.

However, humans are not the only 8

Earth-beings attuned to our Collective Consciousness. Animals, plants, trees, rocks, crystals, buildings and places – and even years – also vibrate with it.

While individual, group and global activities that constantly reshape and redirect energy enable the Records to evolve, so do pivotal dates and events – especially those with global impact like 01/01/2000 (aka Y2K), 9/11/2001 and 12/21/2012.

As an Akashic Practitioner, I not only read the Akashic Records of humans, but also those of animals, buildings and even years with enlightening results.

The Records of a year tend to reflect its themes and potential direction.

During October 2011, I accessed the Year 2012’s Records to inquire about the shifts being attributed to the Mayan Calendar, plus the pivotal date of 12/21/12. I transcribed their response for my chapter in the anthology “2012: Creating Your Own Shift” (Shift Awareness Books), which is partially included below.

At their request, I’ve continued opening 2012’s Records at the Equinoxes and Solstices, which are quarterly energetic balance points leading to Winter Solstice 12/21/12. Following is some of what they’ve shared so far:

“12/21/2012 is connected to the turning of the Mayan calendar to focus humanity’s consciousness on the current requirements of evolution. It is not a

While individual, group and global activities that constantly reshape and redirect energy enable the Records to evolve, so do pivotal dates and events.

“What is most critical to 2012 is already stirring within every human, animal, tree and rock: a quickening of the frequency that binds everything together and always will. Everything vibrates – the stars, Earth, air, oceans, people and even time. As the Akashic Records of 2012, we hold the collective vibrations of all of the above. The subtle and amplified frequency shifts occurring between today and that date will shape what occurs.

“Creating a new equilibrium and maintaining balance between the natural world and the new, yet necessary, global connectivity via electronic pathways and airborne wavelengths is essential to prevent the Earth and humanity from imploding.

Therefore, it is vital for humans to raise their own vibrations and harmonize this in physical form. By tuning into the collective energy of the Records and feeding them with positive light and love, you will also receive more light and love directly – and continually.

“Humans will begin living from the perspective of Soul by realizing there is more to life than what is experienced in their lifetime. This will shift humanity’s focus to treating the Earth as the mother of all tangible >> continued on page 10 9

seed planters and nurturers for future generations.

“This past January 2012’s Records reported: “With more than seven billion people on Earth, humanity is like a pearl becoming too large energetically to remain in its oyster. The original grain of sand has rubbed against the inner shell long enough to generate a strong and iridescent gem. This pearl is now being influenced to see itself more as cohesive and beautiful. When it does, the sense of separation between the metaphoric grain of sand, the shell and the pearl will dissipate.”

My Akashic students and I have also accessed 2012’s Records as a group. Following are some of the insights we’ve received:

“We and the world are mirrors of each other – we are going through our own internal shifts.”

“We have always had ups and downs. People’s fear can influence how things look and feel. We can shape the face of how things look.”

“We’re in the shift of a cycle. It’s an entire year of transition. It’s the late 60’s on steroids, but this time happening in a more concerted, rational and compassionate way.”

“2012 is a dark room lit up from inside by a bright flame. As the heat and light of the flame expands, the darkness disappears.”

I wish you an enlightening, uplifting and evolving 2012 as we all shape what’s to come!

ARE YOU A “MAGNETIC” OR “DYNAMIC PERSON?” It’s ALL in the Sex of Your Planets

I

n my last corporate job, I had two managers. One was Magnetic and the other was Dynamic. Everyone, including me liked to talk to and hang out with the Magnetic person. One day he seemed bummed-out and I asked him why.

He said he wished he was more ambitious, more willing to fight for his position and ideas and was depressed because he thought he didn’t try hard enough at anything in his life. However, he had a great job, wife and two children he left work “early” to see each night (it was an unwritten rule managers were expected to stay after hours).

My other manager, the Dynamic person, was always too busy to chit chat, wanted to find his true love, get married and have children, but he was always at work long after everyone else, including other managers, had gone home. He worked weekends and frequently traveled for work. He rarely took vacations and came in when he was sick.

It was obvious to everyone he loved his job and that work WAS his true love. However, he felt there was something wrong with him because he was still single in his forties. His dream was to be a CEO of a big, successful company someday.

Together they made a great team. Unfortunately, neither felt okay being who they were, nor did they realize the value of knowing their birth chart.

Answer the following questions to determine which you are: Are You a Dynamic Person?

• Do you feel there is something you must do

before you die?

• Do you think you are supposed to do

something or you have a calling?

• Do you feel more alive when you have

many responsibilities?

• Would people describe you as driven?

• Do you get depressed if you are not always

making progress in your life?

• Are you a goal setter with several

accomplishments under your belt?

• Have others told you many times that no one

on their deathbed wishes they’d spent more

time at work?

If you answered “yes” to these questions, you most likely are a Dynamic person and the planets in your birth chart are predominately in “masculine” signs.

Are You a Magnetic Person?

• Have you never felt the urge to be the CEO of

a company or believed life is all about a

great career?

• Do you find meaning and pleasure in just being

alive and believe life is supposed to be enjoyed?

• Are your relationships more important

than anything?

• Will you drop everything to help a friend

or family member?

• Are you are a person who shows up

reliably every day to do your job?

• Is your job not the most important thing

in your life, even if you are an executive?

• Have you ever thought you were lazy and

not living up to your potential?

If you answered “yes” to these questions, you are probably a Magnetic person and the >> continued on page 12 11

continued from page 11 >> planets in your birth chart are predominately in “feminine” signs.

With Self-Knowledge and Acceptance Comes Peace

You can be more Dynamic than Magnetic, or vice versa, and it doesn’t matter whether you are a man or a woman. It’s important to know which one you are so you can save yourself a lot of energy and angst by accepting who you are and

KOWALIK FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC Serving the Community for 16 years

Dr. Daryl Kowalik

Allow Your God-Given Life Force to Transmit Without Interference The life force that travels through your nervous system controls every cell of your body. Nerve impulses flow from the brain, down the spinal cord and to every organ and tissue. Impulses sent back to the brain confirm the body is working properly. The moving bones of the spine can interfere with this exchange. When these bones are stuck out of alignment, it causes nerves to be choked or irritated. This can degrade or distort these messages resulting in ill health or disease. Chiropractic helps restore the integrity of the nervous system thereby allowing our God given life force to transmit without interference. This process allows your body to heal itself and function as it should.

Difficulty Walking and Misdiagnosed ”I previously had never seen a chiropractor.

I rode a bicycle daily and traveled the world with a backpack. I began to feel old and felt my health deteriorating. It was hard to walk properly and stand upright. I took pain pills in order to sleep. The Veterans Administration doctors said I was in the early stages of Parkinson’s disease. I gave up hope of keeping my health and was waiting for the end. My son took me to Dr. Kowalik and everything changed. After two weeks of treatment, I could sleep the entire night without pain - and without pain pills. After one month, I was able to walk two miles, something I haven’t done for years. Now other doctors say I do not have Parkinson’s disease and I am off all prescription medicine. Thanks to Dr. Kowalik, I believe I have more than a few good years left.

Nathan Lombrozo, 76 Migraine Headaches “Since the birth of my little boy, Rudy Jr., five years ago, I awoke every morning with migraine headaches and blurred vision. I was unable to go into the sunlight because it made my migraines worse. To help with the pain, I took medication. The pain was so bad it was difficult to be a new mom. My

husband, who was seeing Dr. Kowalik for back and shoulder pain, referred me.

Since I started receiving treatment in August 2000, I no longer get migraines and am PAIN FREE! I can now be a better mother.

THE FOUR AGREEMENTS AT WORK: Creating a Vibrant, Sustainable Workplace

By David Dibble reamWork is ChangeWork, both in the workplace and at home. It is about each of us living our dreams, aspirations and life purpose. For some of you, your dreams and life purpose will take you into the workplace as Conscious Leader/Managers, Conscious Coaches or Conscious Professionals (service providers). We, too, are teachers whose dreams and life purpose have pulled us to teach in the workplace. Part of the New DreamWork Path is The Four Agreements at Work. This wonderful body of knowledge rapidly transforms working relationships in almost any workplace open to change, growth and improvement!

D

David Dibble, a former CEO, is a keynote speaker, trainer, consultant, executive coach, systems thinker and spiritual teacher. He has written four books, including “The New Agreements in the Workplace and DreamWork”, both of which describe a roadmap to living our dreams at work and at home. He is the creator of The Four Agreements at Work, based upon his eight years of work directly with don Miguel Ruiz, author of the bestselling The Four Agreements. He is also the creator of DreamWork, a path to Conscious Leadership and living our dreams and higher purpose, both at work and at home.

He launches DreamWork with his new 3-day onsite training September 8-10, Introduction DreamWork. For more information and to register, go to www.newdreamwork.com/liveevent.html.

The Origin of The Four Agreements at Work

To say we grew personally and professionally in our eight years working directly with don Miguel Ruiz, author of the worldwide best seller, The Four Agreements, is an understatement. When he kicked us out, saying it was our time to teach, we knew we would be teaching DreamWork in the workplace and the Four Agreements would be a powerful component in making workplace dreams and aspirations real. With DreamWork and The Four Agreements as a guide, we knew the creation of a dream company or a dream job was up to you—if you were willing to do the work.

For 15 years, we have been teaching/ training DreamWork ChangeWork and The Four Agreements at Work in organizations committed to long-term sustainability and growth of their staff, both management and frontline staff. Let’s take a look at don Miguel’s Four Agreements and the implementation of The Four Agreements at Work.

The Four Agreements (at Work): The First Agreement – BE IMPECCABLE WITH YOUR WORD Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love. – don Miguel Ruiz Implementing the First Agreement at Work: The way to be impeccable with your word at work is first being impeccable with your thoughts. Every word starts as a thought. Practice the Mastery of Awareness and chose your thoughts wisely. The word is the most powerful tool in humanity’s toolbox. A word here or there can influence a day at work or an entire lifetime. – David Dibble The Second Agreement – DON’T TAKE ANYTHING PERSONALLY Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream.

When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering. – don Miguel Ruiz Implementing the Second Agreement at Work: When we are detached about what others say, think and do, we don’t have to suffer for something that has nothing to do with us. What people say about us says more about them than us. In the workplace, realize the only way something can be a personal attack is if you agree to make it so. – David Dibble

you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret. – don Miguel Ruiz

Implementing the Fourth Agreement at Work: It is doubtful many of us come to work with the express The Third Agreement – DON’T MAKE ASSUMPTIONS purpose of being less than our best. There are many factors Find the courage to ask questions and express what in play in doing our best work.

LIVING ON THE EDGE: The Deep Truth of Our Destiny and Our Fate

By Gregg Braden

D

uring the last years of the Cold War, I had a front row seat as a senior systems designer in the defense industry to one of the most frightening times in the history of the world and the thinking that led to it. During the 44 years of the most potentially lethal, yet undeclared, war in history, the super powers of the United States and the former Soviet Union did something that seems unthinkable to any rationally-minded person today. They spent time, energy, and human resources to develop and stockpile somewhere in the neighborhood of 65,000 nuclear weapons — a combined arsenal with the power to microwave the Earth and everything on it many times over.

There is a common thread that links the rationale that led to the cold war and many of the crises that face us today.

It stems from a way of thinking that has dominated much of the modern world since the beginning of the scientific era about 300 years ago. It is based in false scientific assumptions that suggest we are somehow separate from the Earth, separate from one another and nature that gives us life is based upon violent competition and survival of the strongest.

Fortunately, new discoveries have revealed each of these assumptions is false. Unfortunately, however, there is a reluctance to reflect such new discoveries in mainstream science, mainstream media, traditional classrooms and conventional textbooks. In other words, we are still teaching our young people the false assumptions of an obsolete way of thinking based in struggle, competition and war.

16

Although we no longer face the nuclear threat that we did in the 1980s, the thinking that made the wars and suffering of the 20th Century and the crises of the 21st Century possible is still in place. This fact is vital to us today for one simple reason: Today’s best minds clearly say we are facing the greatest number and magnitude of crises in recorded history, and that if left unresolved, each crisis threatens our existence!

OUR CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER

The journal Scientific American released a special edition (vol. 293, no. 3, September 2005) to inform the world of the current critical situation. The title, Crossroads for Planet Earth, says the way we solve the simultaneous crises that include: - our response to climate change - unsustainable and growing levels of

extreme poverty - emergence of new diseases - growing shortages of food and fresh

drinking water - growing chasm between extreme wealth

and extreme poverty - unsustainable demand for energy ...will chart the greatest destiny, or seal the darkest fate, of our global family that is estimated to reach a staggering 8 billion people by 2025.

continued from page 16 >> single generation—us—and choices are being made within a small window of time— now.

The key is that the way we address the crises of our time is based in the way we think of the world and ourselves. Maybe it is no coincidence that today, after three centuries of using the scientific method to answer the most basic questions about ourselves, the world faces the greatest crises of war, suffering and disease in recorded history! Our old ways of thinking—which include believing in the need for competition, our separation from nature and the Darwinian tenet “let the strongest live and the weakest die” have brought us to the brink of disaster.

Clearly, the thinking that led to the war and suffering of the 20th century, including the Cold War, is not the thinking upon which we want the delicate choices of our survival based!

THE QUESTION…

How can we possibly know what to choose—what policies to create, what laws to pass, how to build sustainable economies and bridge the issues that are tearing at the fabric of our relationships and society—until we have answered the single question at the very core of our existence. The question is: Who are we?

As individuals, families, nations and a combined human civilization our answer to this deceptively simple question creates the lens through which we see ourselves, our world and make the choices of our lives, future and survival. When we embrace the discoveries of modern science—the truths of our past on Earth, our planet’s cycles of change and the role these play in our lives—then we will understand what we are really up against, what our options are and what choices are available.

THE HOPE

In recent years, an explosion of new discoveries throughout the sciences has left little doubt that many longstanding views about life, our world and our bodies have to change. The reason is simple: The ideas are wrong. In light of the new evidence regarding near–ice age civilizations, the false assumptions of human evolution, the origin and role of war in our past and the undue emphasis on competition today, we must rethink the basic scientific beliefs that lie at the core of the decisions we make and how we live. This is from where the new deep truths of science come.

DEEP TRUTHS 20

During a conversation with Albert Einstein, Nobel Prize–winning physicist Niels Bohr once shared his insight into our deep, mysterious relationship regarding what we think of as “truth.” In clear and eloquent terms he stated “It is the hallmark of any deep truth that its negation is also a deep truth.” In other words, what Bohr called the “negation” of old scientific assumptions (discoveries that no longer make sense in the presence of new evidence) makes the opposite of those assumptions a deep truth. In addition, this is where the news of recent scientific discoveries becomes a proverbial double-edged sword.

The good news is that the new information provides an updated and presumably more correct way of thinking about things. The downside is that entire paradigms have been built upon false assumptions.

Everything from the curricula approved by school boards and taught in our classrooms; to the careers of teachers, authors and academics whose lives have been devoted to teaching the paradigms— along with political decisions and policies that have been made into law in the highest courts of the land— is based upon what is accepted as “true” in our culture. We may well discover that our beliefs about global warming, the role of competition in global economies, when we choose to save or take a life and the reasons for war, for example, fall into this category of deep truth. As we face the greatest number and magnitude of crises in recorded history, the facts revealed by six areas of discovery radically change the way we have been led to think about our world and ourselves in the past. They include: — Deep Truth 1: Our ability to defuse the crises threatening our lives and world hinges upon our willingness to accept what science reveals about our origins and history.

— Deep Truth 2: The reluctance of mainstream educational systems to reflect new discoveries and explore new theories, keeps us stuck in obsolete beliefs that fail to address the greatest >> continued on page 24 continued from page 21 >> crises of human history.

— Deep Truth 3: New discoveries of advanced civilizations dating to near the end of the last ice age provide insights into solving the crises in our time that our ancestors also faced in — Deep Truth 4: A growing body of scientific data from multiple disciplines, gathered using new technology, provides evidence beyond any reasonable doubt that humankind reflects a design put into place at once, rather than a life form emerging randomly through an evolutionary process over a long time.

— Deep Truth 5: More than 400 peer-reviewed studies have concluded that violent competition and war directly contradict our deepest instincts of cooperation and nurturing. In other words, at the core of our truest nature we simply are not “wired” for war!

— Deep Truth 6: The key to addressing the crises threatening our survival lies in building partnerships based upon mutual aid and cooperation to adapt to the changes, rather than in pointing fingers and assigning blame, which makes such vital alliances difficult.

The best science of our time, when married to the wisdom of our past, confirms we have the ways and means to shift our time of crises into a time of emergence. We can create a new world based upon actionable, sustainable principles based in the core understanding of our deepest truths. The key is this: the better we know ourselves, the clearer life choices become.

No one knows for certain what the future holds.

However, no matter which challenges await us or which choices we face, one thing is certain: Knowing who we are and understanding our relationship to one another, as well as to the world beyond, gives us the evolutionary edge to tip the scales of life and balance in our favor. It begins with awareness of our deepest truths and how we rely on these truths daily for choices in our lives.

Visions & Dreams Once Again

Today’s world requires a new way of being.

The world in which we live is in the midst of massive changes on every level. The earth is purging and adjusting to new relationships with the galactic alignments predicted for generations. We are asked to embrace the prevailing energies and become a renewed expression of ourselves, an expression that makes the greatest contribution to the evolutionary process humanity is now experiencing. The evolutionary effects apply to individuals and the planet as well as to all aspects of life including businesses.

It was spring of 1987, just months before the Harmonic Convergence, when Suandra Newberry and her husband, Joseph, accepted the challenge of operating Visions & Dreams, a metaphysical store in Costa Mesa. Motivated by a commitment to support the evolution of consciousness, the Newberrys have offered all types of tools and the venue for learning via all pathways, be it esoteric, wiccan, Eastern or new thought. This has given them a front row seat in the theater of evolutionary unfolding that is taking place.

The Newberrys have ridden the wave of change for years, paying close attention to the shifts in the communications industries and how information is delivered. As humanity was slowly awakening and “New Age” became more mainstream, books became available via many different means. First large chain stores carrying the most popular authors, then Amazon came with lesser prices. Now people download everything from books to spoken word or music and 24

The model of “bookstore” has morphed Visions and Dreams creating the need to adapt continually along 2482 Newport Blvd, Costa Mesa, CA 92627 the way.

VASTU SHASTRA: Your Home As Sacred Space

By Robin & Michael Mastro Vastu Shastra is the architectural science of building in harmony with nature and is seven to ten thousand years old. Vastu comes from a body of knowledge called the Vedas written by visionaries who spent their lives in contemplation. The teachings of Vastu address how our environments, where we live and work especially, influence our daily lives by supporting or hindering our health, happiness, abundance, relationships and Spiritual growth.

For years, my husband, Michael, and I have been practitioners of this sacred science.

Vastu explains how in nature, all five elements (earth, water, fire, air and space) are in perfect balance, but when a building is constructed, that balance is disrupted and, in the process, can have enormous impact on our bodies, minds, and spirits. Through this ancient architectural science, we can learn how to create sacred space in any environment by balancing the five elements, thus enhancing our connection to the Divine Spirit that resides within us all.

The science of Vastu links our bodies, the microcosm and the universe, the macrocosm, together with the five elements. Our bodies are composed of these elements, as is everything in the material world. Like all things in nature, our bodies occupy space, the same space that created the universe. This space holds within it the silent consciousness of all possibility and it is from this place of Divine silence that we create our reality.

When we disrupt the space element in our home 26

or office, we experience obstacles to our success.

When it is in balance, we more easily experience our limitless potential.

The same air that fills our lungs surrounds the earth in a blanket of protection and nurtures every living thing with life force energy (known as prana in Sanskrit). Without air, all life would perish. For this reason, when the air element is out of balance in our environment, we begin to experience disharmony in all relationships, including our relationship or connection to Spirit.

When the air element returns to a state of balance, relationships flourish.

Fire, in the form of heat, brings warmth and stimulation to systems within the body.

Without the light of the sun, plants, animals and other forms of life would not thrive on this planet.

When the fire element is disturbed in our living or workspace, we experience apathy and a lack of forward motion. When this element is stable,

enthusiasm and gratitude abound in our lives. The difference feels like living in darkness or living within the light.

Our bodies are composed of 80 percent water that creates vitality and harmony through our blood, bodily secretions and every cell in the body. When the water element is blocked, we feel disconnected to the Divine; it is as if we are alone in the world. Conversely, when the water element is in proper proportion, our lives flow effortlessly.

Earth gives our bodies shape through bones, tissues, muscles, skin and hair. Without balance in the earth element, we experience disruption in our ability to be grounded and capable in our lives. When this element is balanced, however, we feel supported by Spirit in all our endeavors. Our well-being is intimately linked to the five elements (space, air, fire, water and earth) and so readily reflects balance or imbalance that the teachings of Vastu describe one’s life as a blueprint of the universe, as seen through the five elements.

At a basic level, everything in the universe is energy, vibration and interconnected in a continuous, shifting balancing act whose goal is ideal harmony. There is harmony between earth and water, between the sun (fire) and the moon (air), between the stars and planets.

The energy of all things is connected and moving in a precise universal dance. Even natural calamities, such as earthquakes, excessive rains and flooding, hurricanes and tornados are simply nature’s attempt to make adjustments in its ability to restore universal harmony.

When a home or office is built, the universal balance gets disrupted and people, once they take up residence, experience a litany of common complaints. In our work, we have seen how people’s lives are affected adversely by where they live or work, the importance of living in harmony with the natural forces of nature to allow the blessings of the universe to benefit us is still an alien concept, especially in the West. It appears through our advancement in science and technology, we have moved farther away from understanding how the elements affect our lives. Throughout the world, we use various means of controlling the environment without paying attention to the ramification of our actions. Nothing in our world happens in isolation: we are interconnected through Spirit and the elements.

As the human race has transitioned from living and working in natural environments to spending most of our time in manmade structures, we have distanced our sensitivity and connection to the natural world. Over time, we have created congested, artificial environments filled with synthetics. These have been designed to add ease and comfort, but unfortunately, despite expanding methods of construction and widespread technological advances, we have only recently begun to consider the impact of these physical structures on the body, mind and emotions.

Many people struggle with allergic reactions to

building materials and artificial lighting that severely limits their productivity and emotional well-being. A building can be friendly or unfriendly to its inhabitants, depending on how it is constructed and maintained. Just as a chiropractor assists people by aligning their physical anatomy, Vastu has the power to create balance in our life by aligning our home or office environment – the “body that surrounds our body.” Vastu can support our connection to the Divine by energetically aligning our environment to the positive forces naturally inherent in the universe. A qualified practitioner in the field of Vastu can make powerful, though seemingly simple, adjustments, without our having to move or remodel our home or office workspace.

As a part of this earth, we live in a sea of electromagnetic and stellar influences. Every shift produced in the atmosphere has the potential to affect our actions and

emotions. Every particle of energy is linked to the next particle. Each of the five elements is associated with a direction on the compass, and each direction has a particular influence on the way we think, feel, and perceive our lives.

Our connection to the field of unlimited possibilities is affected by environmental stress, which inhibits the ability to experience the depth of our connection to the Divine.

Without this connection, our >> continued on page 28 27

continued from page 27 >> experience of love for self and others, our ability to live our lives fully, with peace in our hearts is limited and will be compromised. For this reason, it helps to understand how the directions are associated with the five elements and to achieve balance between them to enhance our lives.

The northeast area of your residence is associated with the water element. It is the source of positive magnetic energy from the north and positive solar energy from the east. Ideally, our residence needs to be open to the northeast to receive this positive energy. The northeast influences our Spiritual growth and the ability to give and serve humanity.

In a home designed according to Vastu, the northeast is good area for entrances, meditation rooms, altars, and fountains. If this area has proper Vastu, knowledge of the self will come with more ease. If there is a kitchen, toilet, missing corner, clutter, heating system, or blockage in the northeast, such as a large tree or house, Spiritual progress will be slowed. In an office, use a fountain in this area to promote creativity and success.

The southeast is associated with the fire element.

The southeast influences the energy needed to have a vibrant connection to the Divine. Kitchens, heating and electrical systems in a home or office are well placed in the southeast. If this area is designed according to Vastu, the veils of ignorance that separate us from our true nature will be removed more easily. If there is a missing corner or blockage in this area, our relationship with the Divine, as well as our physical health, will be challenged.

The southwest is associated with the earth element. The southwest influences the support we receive from Spiritual allies. If our bed is in the southwest area of the house with our head against the south or east wall, our relationship with the Divine will be strong and well grounded. If there is a missing corner, toilet, or heating source in this area, the inhabitants will be more likely to experience health problems and a feeling of disconnection to Spirit. In a work environment, this is an ideal location for the owner or manager’s office.

The air element is associated with the northwest.

This direction influences the strength of our relationship to the Divine. Toilets and guest bedrooms work well in the northwest. If this area is designed according to Vastu principles, we will experience a heightened sense of connection with universal energy. If there is a missing corner or blockage, mental instability and resistance to Spiritual practice can result. At work, use this area for marketing, public relations and conference rooms.

The central area of a residence or office is associated with the space element. If this area is open and without congestion, the blessings of universal energy will enter the environment and a sense of wellbeing and peace will pervade it. If there is clutter, toilets, a kitchen or a lack of open space in the center, the space element will be compromised and success will be inhibited in all areas of life.

The earth is a magnetic force and composed of the five elements as is our brain. The thalamus is the relay center for all sensory >> continued on page 30

continued from page 28 >> and motor skills in the brain. Neurological research has shown that the firing patterns of neurons in the thalamus function differently depending on which direction one is facing. Our mind, therefore, is influenced by the interaction between the magnetic field and our brain cells. Placing our bodies and environments in alignment with the magnetic axis enables us to think and act more in tune with the forces of nature. Our lives then feel as through we are swimming with the stream as opposed to swimming against it.

These studies have shown that when we meditate facing the east in the morning, as opposed to all other directions, we are able to enter deeper states of meditation and experience greater stress reduction. We achieve a more restful state in this direction (measurable by lowered metabolism and breath rate), which affectively supports our health and Spiritual growth. Sleeping with our head to the south or east also directly aligns us with the Divine forces of nature. Sadly, most modern architecture is not designed in alignment with natural forces: the sun, wind, water, the climate and planets are ignored during planning and construction. Yet our connection to Spirit is enhanced greatly when all aspects of a residence or office are carefully balanced according to universal principles. We then gain nature’s support and our health, happiness, success, and connection to the Divine comes into harmony. With body, mind and Spirit aligned to these natural forces, we feel deeply connected to every living thing and our willingness to harm that connection diminishes. Living according to the principles of Vastu not only reduces stress in our lives, it fills us with a palpable sense of unlimited possibility.

Robin and Michael Mastro are considered the foremost practitioners of Vastu in North America.

They utilize timeproven techniques to reestablish the connection between man and nature. Their books on Vastu, Altars of Power and Grace, The Way of Vastu, and Making Room for Mr. Right, are considered important resources. Their work, with individuals and corporate clients, such as Microsoft, Boeing, Amazon, NASA, The World Bank and Oracle, has helped thousands live more harmonious, stress-free lives.

History and Celestial Time

By Walter Cruttenden

D

iscoveries like the Greek Antikythera computer (1500 years before precision geared devices are invented), Baghdad batteries (2000 years before Volta “invented” the battery) or dental and brain surgery artifacts found in ancient Pakistan (8000 years ago) appear “anomalous” within today’s paradigm of history.

However, they are not unexpected according to the ancient cyclical view.

Giorgio de Santillana, former MIT professor of the history of science, states many ancient cultures believed consciousness and history were not linear but cyclical; they would rise and fall over time.

In Hamlet’s Mill, Giorgio and Hertha von Dechend wrote the myth and folklore of over 30 ancient cultures globally spoke of a vast cycle of time with alternating Dark and Golden Ages that move with the equinox precession. Plato called this “the Great Year.”

The idea of a great cycle timed by the slow precession of the equinox was common to cultures before Christianity.

We were taught this is a fairytale; there was no Golden Age. However, new astronomical and archaeological evidence suggests the cycle may have a factual basis. Understanding the cycle might provide insight into where society is headed now and why consciousness may be expanding at an exponential rate. Understanding the cause of precession is key to understanding the cycle.

The standard theory of precession says it is the Moon’s gravity acting upon Earth that causes Earth’s changing orientation to inertial space, a.k.a. the “precession of the equinox.” However, ancient sources say the observable of an equinox slowly moving (precessing) through the Zodiac constellations is due to the solar system movement through space (changing our viewpoint from Earth). At the Binary Research Institute, we modeled a moving solar system that better produce the precession observable and resolves a number of solar system anomalies.

A moving solar system might provide a reason for the Great Year with alternating Dark and Golden Ages. If the solar system carrying Earth moves in a huge orbit, subjecting the Earth to the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum of another star or EM source, this would affect our magnetosphere, ionosphere and life in a pattern commensurate with that orbit. Just as Earth’s smaller diurnal, annual motions produce day and night cycles and seasons (due to Earth’s position to the Sun’s EM spectrum), the larger celestial motion might produce a cycle affecting life and consciousness on a grand scale.

The hypothesis for how consciousness would be affected in such a celestial cycle builds on the work of Dr. Valerie Hunt, former UCLA professor of physiology.

In many studies, she found consciousness is affected by immersion in EM fields. Consequently, the concept behind the Great Year, consistent with myth and folklore, is based on the Sun’s motion through space, subjecting Earth to waxing and waning stellar fields (stars are EM spectrum generators), resulting in the legendary rise and fall of the ages over time.

In Lost Star of Myth and Time, we explored ancient myths about rising and falling ages tied to the precession cycle and current precession anomalies, outlined a dynamic solar system model that explains the precession observable and suggested a hypothesis for how a change in proximity to stellar-generated EM fields >> continued on page 32 31

continued from page 31 >> might induce Earth’s cyclical changes. We use this as a guide to understand where we have been in terms of consciousness and ancient civilizations and where we are going. As Graham Hancock stated, this “new – or ancient – approach to the greatest problems of human history” could be “key to the mystery of the ages.”

Current history theories ignore myth and folklore and do not consider macro external influences on consciousness. Modern history theory states consciousness or history moves in a linear pattern from primitive to modern with few exceptions. Some tenets include: • Mankind evolved from Africa • People were hunter-gatherers until about 5000 years ago • Tribes first banded together for protection from warring parties • Written communication must precede large engineered structures or populous civilizations

The problem with this widely accepted paradigm is it is inconsistent with the evolving interpretation of recently discovered ancient cultures and anomalous artifacts. In the last hundred years, major discoveries were made in Mesopotamia, the Indus Valley, the Asian 32

plains, South America and other regions that break history theory rules and push back the time of advanced human development.

Ancient man was more proficient and civilized 5000 years ago than during the Dark Ages. In Caral, an ancient complex on Peru’s west coast, six pyramids were carbon dated at 4700 years old, a date contemporaneous with Egyptian pyramids and rivaling when the first structures were found in Mesopotamia, the “Cradle of Civilization.” However, Caral is an ocean away from the “Cradle.” We find no evidence of writing or weaponry, two of the “necessities of civilization.” However, we do find beautiful musical instruments, astronomically aligned structures and evidence of commerce with distant lands.

Gobekli Tepe in Turkey presents a greater challenge to current historical accounts. Dating back 11,500 years, it contains dramatic architecture, including huge carved pillars. To find something so complex long before we supposedly invented pottery is an archaeological enigma. This defies the standard historical paradigm.

What is stranger is many civilizations declined en mass.

In ancient Mesopotamia, Pakistan, Jiroft, Iran and adjacent lands, knowledge of astronomy, geometry, advanced building techniques, sophisticated plumbing and water systems, incredible art, dyes and fabrics, surgery, medicine and other refinements of civilization arose from nowhere yet were lost over the next few thousand years. By the Dark Ages, these civilizations turned to dust or nomadic ways of life. Near the depths of the downturn, ruins and little else was found. Throughout Europe where larger populations remained, poverty and disease were rampant. The ability to read, write or duplicate any earlier engineering or scientific feats disappeared. What happened?

While records of this period are spotty, archeological evidence indicates consciousness, reflected as human ingenuity and capability, diminished. We lost the ability to do things we used to do. Ironically, many ancient cultures predicted this.

The world’s foremost Assyrianologist, Stefan Maul, shed light on this phenomenon in his Stanford Presidential Lecture stating the Akkadians knew they lived in a declining era. They revered and tried to hang onto the past while lamenting and predicting the Dark Ages. His etymological studies of cuneiform tablets show ancient words for the “past” have become our words for the “future,” whereas their words for the “future” have become our words for the “past.” It is as if mankind orients his motion through time depending on whether he is in an ascending or descending age.

This principal of waxing and waning periods of time is depicted in ancient Mithraic temples bas-reliefs.

The famed Tauroctany (bull slaying scene) is surrounded by two boys, Cautes and Cautopetes. One holds a torch up on one side of the zodiac indicating a time of light;

the other holds a torch down on the other side indicating a time of darkness. As the accompanying chart shows, these periods correspond with the Vedic description of when the Earth goes through periods of rising and falling consciousness.

Jarred Diamond, well-known historian anthropologist and author of Guns, Germs and Steel, states it is local geographic and environmental advantages on Earth that determine which human groups succeed or fail. Those with steel, guns and bad germs win. While this helps explain regional differences of the last few thousand years, it does not address macro trends affecting all cultures (including China and the Americas) as they slipped into the last Dark Age.

The cyclical Great Year model overlays and augments Diamond’s observations giving a reason for the downturn. It suggests man’s geography and environment determines his success as well as the geography and environment of Earth in space that affects mankind. Just as small celestial motions affect life over the short term (causing day, night and seasons), large celestial motions affect us over the long term, resulting in the Great Year’s rising and falling ages.

Understanding consciousness may rise and fall with the heavens’ motions gives meaning to ancient myth and folklore and puts anomalous artifacts into an historical context that makes sense. It may be why ancient cultures were fascinated with stars and provides a workable paradigm to understand history and help identify forces that propelled the Renaissance and is accelerating consciousness today.

The Greek historian Hesiod wrote of the last Golden Age’s wonderful nature when “peace and plenty” abounded. Hopi myths report cities on the bottom of the sea. Ancient peoples broke the great cycle into an ascending and descending phase, each with four periods.

For example, the Vedic (Hindu) culture states when the

them the Iron, Bronze, Silver and Golden Ages. Distant cultures, such as the Maya or Hopi, used other names such as “worlds” or “Suns” and identified specific epochs.

A modern proponent of the cyclical system was Swami Sri Yukteswar, the Sanskrit Sage and author of The Holy Science (1894). He taught that the position of our solar system relative to another star indicates we are in recent transition from the lowest material age, the Kali Yuga, into the electrical or atomic age, the Dwapara Throughout Europe where larger Yuga. In this period, we see world as more transparent populations remained, poverty and the as we move from selfawareness as a physical body disease were rampant. The ability in a physical universe to an awareness we are something to read, write or duplicate any more, living in a universe filled with subtle forces and earlier engineering or scientific energies. feats disappeared. What happened? The discoveries of the laws of gravity, electricity and magnetism in the last few hundred years give this credence – and the trend is Autumnal Equinox moves from Virgo to Aires, we go accelerating. In the last century, it was discovered physical through the ascending Kali, Dwapara, Treta and Satya matter is not solid. It is made of molecules that are made Yugas (the golden era) before slowly declining in reverse of atoms, which are 99.9% empty space. The bit of matter order as the equinox completes its journey.

The Silver Age or Treta Yuga, the third age (from the bottom) is the Greek “age of the demigods,” or to Indian yogis, the age of divine magnetism and the mind.

While this is a difficult concept to grasp consider the story of Babel.

Before Babel (pre-3100 B.C. in the last descending Treta Yuga), humanity spoke with one tongue and communed freely with nature. The Old Testament states mankind began to build “towers” and then languages were “confused.” People could no longer understand one another (Genisis 11:1-9). In the standard theory of history this story makes no sense; however, in the cyclical model it has great meaning. It would have occurred around the building of ancient Mesopotamia’s first towers, between 3000 B.C. and 3500 B.C. This is around the time (3100 B.C.) when, according to Sri Yukteswar, the world declined from the descending Treta Yuga into the descending Dwapara Yuga, a time when clairvoyance and telepathy were lost (see Chart). We learn from Paramahansa Yogananda, another proponent of the yuga cycle and author of Autobiography of a Yogi, this time will come again in 4100 A.D. when we pass from the ascending Dwapara into the ascending Treta Yuga. He states there will once again be a “common knowledge of telepathy and clairvoyance” when we will better understand the meaning of ancient myths.

The Treta Yuga was the age of levitation, telepathy, a time of shaman and wizards, when tremendous physic and mental abilities were common, an “age of demigods.” continued from page 33 >> and neutron is thought to There are stories about mythical powers of saints and be vibrating energy, according to the latest String Theory. sages.

Ages beyond the present are difficult to grasp consciousness. This is exactly what the ancients said. because our present consciousness cannot behold a Christ quoted the far more ancient scriptures of the Old greater consciousness anymore than a farmer of the last Testament when, in the depths of the last Dark Age he century could understand how we communicate with said; “Is it not written that ye are gods.” He embodied this electrons through wireless space. So we extrapolate the consciousness when saying, “These things that I do ye shall do also.”

If the and wizards, when tremendous physic Treta or Silver Age is inconceivable, and mental abilities were common, an then the Golden Age sounds like ™age of demigods.∫ a myth or dream.

However, Oriental myths and folklore hint this was when gods walked the teachings about cycles indicate this is a passing phase and Earth and mankind lived in perfect harmony with nature the real trend is towards a god-like state where the physical and the heavens.

Going back further, structures were 34

aligned to mirror constellations. The Golden Age was when we could perceive and communicate with astral or causal realms and know God without the intermediacy of any religion. This sounds like a fairy tale given our current state of consciousness, but it was common to ancient peoples who spoke and wrote of long lost higher ages.

If the cycle is real and we are now progressing out of the Dark Ages, understanding the cycle has predictive value. Just as the seasons caused by Earth’s orbit around the Sun can be forecasted (through calendars and astronomical

means) so can seasons of the Great Year be calculated by the rate at which our solar system moves through space.

This is observed as the equinox precesses through the twelve zodiac constellations that act like numbers on a giant celestial clock and the Autumnal Equinox is the hour hand. Seeing where it falls as it points to the heavens shows our place in history and time.

Reconnective Healing:

A NEW LEVEL OF HEALING MAKES ITS WAY TO THE PLANET

by Dr. Eric Pearl

R

econnective Healing is a new level of healing that, according to researchers and scientists, may very well be here on the planet for the first time. Of course, they are the last people you would expect to make such a bold statement – and so I asked, “How can you say something this strongly?”

They said, “It really makes perfect sense if you just understand two basic concepts.” Concept One is that we are four-dimensional beings. We exist in a fourdimensional world of height, width, depth and time and in Quantum Physics today they often illustrate that world as a bubble. They tell us to imagine that the wall, or the cell of the bubble, the outside of the bubble, is comprised of height, width, depth and time, and everything inside that bubble is energy. This has been our four-dimensional existence from the beginning. The healing techniques we have have had – Reiki, Johrei, Jin Shin and QiGong, for instance – have been different portions, subsets or fractions of energy.

You access Reiki through a different technique than you access QiGong. It feels different; they’re different parts of this energy.

It is as if you are looking at the heavens at night and studying the stars with a telescope and use it as a metaphor for one of these “techniques.”

The more you fine-tune your view from the telescope, the more you fine-tune that technique, the better you might be able to see that one portion of the sky exposed to the planet at that moment in time. But what is the expense, the cost, the price you pay when you fine-tune that telescope? You lose the rest of the vista, horizon, and picture. At some point it becomes wise to place the telescope down so we can see the entire sky. With Reconnective Healing, we can access the entirety of the energy that exists within our bubble, not just a portion.

Here is Concept Two, which is time is moving faster, not just in a linear fashion from point A to pointB, but >> continued on page 39

continued from page 36 >> moving faster in all directions at once – in other words, time is expanding.

This means our bubble, our playground of existence is expanding further, further out into the universe encompassing more of what has always existed in the universe, but has not been present on our planet before.

In other words, it is timeless in its existence, but once it enters into our bubble of height, width, depth and time it is new to us. Therefore, it is bringing in levels of energy that haven’t been seen here before and further expanding beyond energy into a spectrum of energy, light and information for the first time.

Reconnective Healing is different than the “techniques” of traditional energy healing because they access a limited range of energy. In contrast, Reconnective Healing takes us beyond the techniques into the full spectrum of energy, light and information.

Instead of looking for a problem and trying to fix it with a “technique,” we totally transcend the diagnosis. The gift of stepping into Reconnective Healing is it allows us to facilitate healings that are far greater, that tend to last for the lifetime of the person and are often fairly instantaneous.

Reconnective Healing is not something we do. It is something we allow and help facilitate. It works by itself, as well as greatly expands the results of the modalities that today’s healing and healthcare practitioners are already using. We can each be the catalyst for other’s healings and our own. What can be better than that?

However, are we dealing with something real

in Reconnection Healing.

William A. Tiller, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Stanford University was able to gauge a huge energy upsurge in The Reconnection workshop rooms. The measurements in the rooms where Reconnective Healing takes place shows levels of energy that he says could not possibly be reproduced. The analaogy they use, is it as if they heated the room to over 300 degrees Centigrade.

Konstantin Korotkov, PhD, Deputy Director of SaintPetersburg Federal Research Institute of Physical Culture in Russia is tracking significant improvement in athlete’s peak performance once exposed to the Reconnective Healing frequencies. Dr. Korotkov discovered it alters and affects the blood. He has demonstrated this on the Russian Olympic athletes they have been testing. It changes our blood, our DNA and even changes the gamma radiation we emit as human beings.

W

hat is so exciting is that everyone can learn how to do this. In addtion, our reward is oftentimes far more than just the amazing experience of helping someone else to heal. Reconnective Healing is a pathway to transformation for both the healer and the person receiving the healing. The evidence shows that the healer or practitioner also receives the gift of the healing frequencies.

How does one become proficient as a Reconnective Healing catalyst to heal themselves and others? The first thing is you have to interact with the frequencies.

There are various levels in which you can to do this. On the basic level, you can begin to access this by reading The Reconnection, Heal Others, Heal Yourself, now available in over 36 languages.

However, the keyword is that you can begin to access it from reading the book. Even though the last third of the book is a basic “How To,” it is especially valuable to attend Reconnective Healing seminars because there soak in these frequencies and you transform throughout the weekend. You are learn the light and consciousness of this work and the philosophy, which is what allows it to come through.

We show you how to access, find and feel the frequencies. And as you do, you will most likely see the body of the person lying >> continued on page 42

Instead of looking for a problem and trying to fix it with a “technique,” we totally transcend the diagnosis. The gift of stepping into Reconnective Healing is it allows us to facilitate healings that are far greater, that tend to last for the lifetime of the person and are often fairly instantaneous.

here, not just theoretic or anecdotal? The evidence is in scientific studies showing the effects on heart waves, brain waves and gamma waves. There is a transformation that takes place once you interact with this new, allencompassing spectrum of healing frequencies.

Something changes in the tissues, even our DNA. • The University of Arizona’s Human Energy Systems Laboratory, under Gary Schwartz, PhD, has performed six major controlled experiments that have substantiated the electromagnetic transference

continued from page 39 >> on the table begin to move their fingers, feet, arms and/or legs involuntarily.

Their eyes will begin to rapidly dart back and forth. Even tiny muscles on the forehead or the chin, muscles not easily moved intentionally or independently, will go into involuntary movement. You will begin to see and recognize that by your “tuning in” to certain sensations, the person responds physically.

As you locate and access other sensations, you will see the person visibly respond in another way. This is how you start to recognize your mastery. In your “seeing” lies your “knowingness.” First, by the end of the weekend, you will be able to do everything I – or any human being on this planet – can do in the way of healing. People are always astonished at what they can accomplish after only a weekend of instruction.

You and I are standing on the precipice of the next level of human evolution. As we reconnect with the truth of who and what we are, we shine as the light that we are, we illuminate our lives and the lives of others. As this work spreads, we raise the health, consciousness and vibration of everyone on the planet and, therefore, the planet itself. All we have to do is open up, experience and share it.

The Next Reconnective Healing Seminar is slated for Oct. 19-21 in Newport Beach, CA. The Friday evening “Essence of Healing” presentation by Dr. Eric Pearl is open to the public for a $9 fee. To learn more,

go to www.TheReconnection.com or call (323) 9600012. To see a video clip, visit www.youtube.com/ TheReconnectionTV.

Eric Pearl, internationally recognized healer, is widely regarded as the world’s leading authority on energy healing.

His patients’s healings from cancers, AIDSrelated diseases, epilepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, birth disfigurements and other serious afflictions have been documented in six books to date, including Eric’s international bestseller, The Reconnection: Heal Others, Heal Yourself, which has been published in more than 36 languages. He travels the globe extensively throughout the year bringing the light and information of Reconnective Healing onto the planet and has delivered his method of healing to approximately 70,000 people in more than 70 countries, bringing about a spontaneous generation of healers worldwide.
