FORGIVENESS
is a state of mind that keeps us locked into a small prison without windows. It is not about the other person!! It is us that insists on being miserable. Forgiveness like charity starts at home. It is timeto forgive oneself for some chosen error thathas ruined our lives. Nothing ruins our lives.We just want to believe that so we do not have to change. Be good to yourself. Get over it whatever it is or was. Today is the day to be lived. Don’t miss it Rev. Margie Ann Taylor-Black., D.D. – you might like it !!!

Michael
Tellinger Discoverer of the
Oldest Civilizations
is
On Earth, by Tony Camacho
a South African renaissance man, author, scientist, explorer and singer-songwriter who has become an authority on the origins of the oldest civilizations on earth in southern Africa. WP: So we’re going to go back to a little bit of childhood, a little bit of history of what it was like being a little Michael Tellinger, so if you could share that just a tiny bit. MT: I don’t really think I had a different kind of an upbringing from anybody else, because I didn’t know there was a difference. I was born in the Czech Republic, to a very musical family. My mother was an opera singer, I used to travel with her around Europe on occasion; I was exposed to classical music and opera at a very early age. My father was a mining engineer, so I had an interesting mix. Very close family at that stage. WP: Siblings?
MT: One sister, she’s four years younger. WP: Were you ever inspired as a young man to become a singer, or explore it a bit? MT: Oh, absolutely, and that’s really I think what makes my life slightly different, because I never ever thought while I was growing up that I would be anything else other than a musician. WP: Sure. You were immersed in that arena. Not only were you learning singing, but were you also learning some instruments? MT: The guitar became my main instrument, and that’s what I played for ten
years of my life. I played music professionally between the ages of about 19 until about 28.
WP: Okay, so coming out of the Czech, you then made a move at some point to South Africa. I was curious how that impacted you in terms of coming into a country where perhaps you’d seen black people, but suddenly you were confronted with a whole army of them. What was that experience like? MT: I’d never seen a black person in my life before, so it was really strange to see people that looked completely different from white people. And I remember trying to touch their hair, asking if I could feel their hair, you know, “can I feel your
hair?” It was the height of apartheid and the black people were working all the menial jobs.
MT: I mean, just the other day, he said to me, “why don’t you just get yourself a job?” He’s got no idea what I do, it’s quite sweet.
WP: Were they receptive to your curiosity, of wanting to put your hand on their hair, and look at them and come up to them? MT: Very much so, they thought it was really weird that somebody would want to do that.
WP: It is. Has he read the books, seen any of the films? MT: No, he looks at my books and he just thinks it’s a bunch of rubbish. Because of the economics, because of the money and things I’ve been telling him for the last two years about the money system. In his mind, he can’t imagine that there could be a group of people so devious and so evil that they could have hijacked and manipulated the world for their benefit.
WP: What drew you to that? What excited your curiosity? MT: I just had to study something. That was expected of me by my father. I had to get a degree and a career to make sure I could survive. WP: Exactly. So you could pay bills and pay rent and have a roof over your head. But nonetheless, you ended up picking pharmaceutics. MT: Completely by accident. Because I loved chemistry. I left, phoned my friend who was in Johannesburg, who was studying pharmacy, and asked him, “hey, what are the girls like?” and he said, “aw, great”. I said, “I’ll see you tomorrow.” That’s it; I joined the medical school and studied pharmaceutics.
”
WP: That’s cute. Okay, so you finished schooling there, and then on to college. What were you pursuing in college? MT: I studied pharmaceutics at Wits University; it’s the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, the main university in South Africa. I know Cape Town and Stellenbosch will claim otherwise, but it’s the big one.
WP: It’s a mouthful, for anybody. It is. It’s a huge hurdle, even without all the education.
I didn’t have to be hooked because even as a five year old, I was always looking at the skies, thinking to myself, “When are other people going to come and say hello to us?”
”
WP: Wow. That was quite a change. Did that create any disruption with the family, or was that okay? MT: That’s the one thing about my family. I’ve probably had the most supportive family anyone could ever pray and wish and hope for. Although my father doesn’t understand what I’m doing, he still supports me.
MT: Well, when I speak of aliens, he says, “you know what? If there were aliens, we would know about it.” And I say, “no, the government doesn’t want us to know about it.” That’s where his reasoning comes crashing down.
WP: What a beautiful gift. Isn’t it? Especially when you say that he doesn’t quite understand what it is, but he’s happy to say, “keep doing it.”
WP: It’s true. And to that issue, it really speaks to our inability or our lack of initiative in bringing about and asking for change. As citizens, we become pretty complacent.
We let things go until they become explosive, then there’s a revolt.
MT: Exactly. WP: It’s where we’re headed at some level. But just in the sense of consciousness, as people become more aware, they’re more active. MT: I do believe, however, that bankers are human beings as well. WP: Yeah, of course. MT: Politicians are human beings and suddenly they wake up and it hits them, and they go, “oh my god, I’ve been stealing from the world, I’ve been oppressing the people.” And that’s when the consciousness overcomes them. The children become the trigger points of consciousness in their parents. WP: I see it like you do, in the sense that it’s going to happen faster, because the kids today, and I say kids whether they’re teenagers or young adults in their twenties, they’re much more aware. They’re not afraid to say that what you do, what you think, or what you support isn’t so right. So we get to be the ones that are taught, as you say, by our children. We just have to become a little less stubborn. We have to let go of our egos at that level. MT: It is the ego thing. The ego is the big common denominator that keeps propagating the enslavement. WP: Absolutely. It’s sad, because it’s such a trap, and your ego is so enormously creative. MT: Absolutely, totally. WP: And you think you’ve moved away from it but there it is. So it’s kind of funny. But it’s great exercise to be clearer and clearer as we go through the process. MT: Yeah. Especially in the field that I’m in now, going to an event like Contact in the Desert, coming face to face with people that have reached great fame and have become well-exposed, and seeing how it’s changed them. What I like about the philosophy of Ubuntu Contributionism is that there is no hierarchy. There can be nobody in charge because there’s no money to create and support the hierarchy. It’s impossible to create a hierarchy Continued on Page 9

Tellinger article continued from Page 7
without money. “When you sell millions of books and people elevate you to a demi-god status, you need to break that down at all times. Break it down and keep a level playing field.”
WP: I like the philosophy. It’s like what Krishnamurti spoke of when he said, “don’t look to me as being a guru. I’m just here to share information. Don’t follow me; don’t even embrace what I’m telling you. You can look at it and do what you will with it.” He was just inviting people to come in contact with that voice inside of them. MT: It’s critical, and I find it quite frustrating when I share this philosophy with people and they want to engage me in arguing about it. That’s not my job. I don’t want to convince you of this. It’s okay! Carry on with what you’re doing, because something will happen that will make you come back here and go, “hold on, I want to go back and revisit that.” WP: I like what you say, that we’re not going to force anybody into taking anything, but I feel a little bit of our job is perhaps being just a tad persistent. MT: Exactly? Or it might be a line in a
movie, many people don’t realize movies are fully encoded with this information. But it’s very subliminal. Back to the history. I was playing music, I was playing golf and wind surfing, doing theater, I was on stage in front of 1500 people every night. I came to America with my partner Russell Sterling, and we recorded an album in Nashville. Then off to L.A. in ‘85 to sell the album and get signed, which we did very successfully. We had at least three labels look at us, we were just choosing which was the best deal, until they found out that we were two white boys from South Africa. Eerything stopped. They said, “sorry, can’t do the deal, goodbye.” End of deal. Because of apartheid.
WP: It reminds me of a recent movie, I don’t know if you saw it? Searching for Sugar Man? MT: I was very closely affiliated to that moment because I was friends with Stephen Segerman, the guy that found Rodriguez. I had arrived at his house the morning after he spoke to him on the phone in Cape Town. WP: Oh, wow.
MT: I walked to his house and he said, “I spoke to him last night!” I said, “who is it?” He said “Rodriguez” I was there when it happened, so when I saw the documentary it was like I was in tears man. WP: It’s a great story, on so many levels. This humility in him, he was such a humble man. So coming back, there you were doing water ski instructing and all kinds of stuff. What was the pivotal moment for you, what hooked you, about other worlds, about E.T.s, about different civilizations? MT: It wasn’t anything specific at that stage. I didn’t have to be hooked because even as a five year old, I was always looking at the skies, thinking to myself, “when are other people going to come and say hello to us?” When I got to school, that was beaten out of me. “That doesn’t exist. Stop that, you’re imagining things. We’re the only ones.” Later, when I was in my first year at the University, 18 years old, I read Daniken’s ‘Chariots of the Gods’, in 1978, and that was the reintroduction. But throughout my childhood, I wrote a lot of music, I wrote a lot of songs from about twelve years old. Continued on Page 11

Tellinger article continued from Page 9
WP: Well you’re very talented. You’re very gifted. MT: I just never ever wanted to tow the normal line. When I go back and revisit the lyrics of these songs, I’m astounded at how conscious the lyrics are. WP: Was there a sensation of that, as the information was coming to you, as you were there writing, “I’m not quite sure why I’m writing this, but here it is”? MT: I didn’t really know. I did not know until I read when I was 18. By then I’d written probably 200 songs, and I’d say at least 50% of them were deeply spiritual and conscious songs. Until I read Erich von Daniken, and I just suddenly went, “Ah, I got it!” It was a homecoming; I said “wow, that’s amazing.” I was doing the same kind of work musically. WP: You were dialed in. MT: Yes, the lyrics were dialed in. But then the music didn’t take off. And I’m glad it didn’t. I wouldn’t be doing what I’m doing now.
WP: No, no question about it. So when was your first little excursion? Was it in Africa ? MT: No, it was when I’d just turned thirty. Twelve years after I’d read von Daniken. A friend of mine, Michelle, dropped off a present for my birthday, William Bramley’s Gods of Eden, which is a classic in this field. I just devoured that book. That was it. The next few weeks I went and I got into Zechariah Sitchin. So it started in 1990. WP: Well you’ve certainly provided a lot of information. So you’ve devoured all of Sitchin’s work, which has been prolific. MT: And then I got into Hancock, more scientific stuff. I like the scientific stuff. WP: Just a side note, there’s a great book out now, and you may have read it, Rupert Sheldrake, ‘Science Set Free.’ MT: I haven’t read it. I need to read it. And on that note, I must also tell you about another wonderful book on that line called ‘Punk Science’ by a British medical doctor of Indian origin, called Manjir Samanta-Laughton. A spectacular book. I just couldn’t put it down.
WP: That’s great, I’ll have to get it. Can you tell me a little bit about some of the surprising discoveries you’ve come upon? MT: Well the first one was the fact that there is a vast, vanished civilization off the southern tip of Africa that no one has ever figured out or recognized, of more than ten million structures. And Egypt is inextricably linked to what’s happening in South Africa and in Zimbabwe. It’s on the same longitudinal line. We now know instinctively and immediately that there is a vast vanished civilization. We need to rethink the entire story of our human origin. WP: Absolutely. So is there a name to that area? MT: Well, the Sumerian tablets call it the Abzu, and that’s apparently where the gold came from. First of all, the mystery is that they’re connected by these channels that are not roads. It’s like everything’s suspended in a giant spider’s web that are actually giant agricultural terraces. And this is just insane. We have a huge population potentially, who were growing a lot of crops or growing a lot of something, and using these devices that are not dwellings, and then realizing that Continued on Page 27

333333 Three Quick Steps to
Enlightenment Every person on the planet is born with both an ego and spiritual identity. The ego self is the one most of us presume ourselves to be, while our spiritual self often remains hidden, or even if it’s obvious to us, it is not the self we live through most of our lives. Experiencing our enlightenment meaning our complete identification with our spiritual selves—is demonstrated by responding to every experience with love. Since this love (or God-beingness), is already inside us, it means that each of us is born already enlightened. The key is finding a way to live this expression of love in every moment. So with this uncovering of enlightenment in mind, here are three exercises to make our spiritual selves our primary identity, while relegating our ego to a back-seat position.
1) Slow Down. Recognize that liv-
ing with our egos is like driving a car 90 miles/hour most of the time. We are so accustomed to living our lives this way that things become a blur because we are moving so fast that we don’t re-

Our ego does not want us to slow down or allow us to identify with our spiritual self. Instead it wants to fill our time and mind every day. That’s why emptying our thoughts in meditation can be difficult. Our ego mind does not want to be quiet and just observe and be objective. It’s always got to be somewhere other than where we are now, but in reality, our Godly mind knows there is no such thing as time, and very little purpose in rushing. As long as our ego can prevent us from living in the present, it obscures who we really are and hides our enlightenment from us.

ness gives us the ability to more objectively observe our thoughts, feelings, motivations, goals, actions, etc. Daily meditation, or the observing of our thoughts during a specific time period, is only part of this exercise and many people find meditation difficult. Indeed, daily meditation does require a leap towards enlightenment, where small steps can be more effective. One key concept is to always be obser-
Carefully examine even the slightest negative feeling. Even if only mildly annoyed, be honest with yourself and look at the very deep and real feelings that lie underneath. Perhaps you feel belittled, not good enough, or unloved. Just considering these feelings, rather than simply moving on, means we are able to observe a situation in a new way. In my counseling experience, it’s almost universal that a person dismisses the idea that they’re experiencing any negative feeling unless it’s overwhelming. Instead of dealing with the dismissed feeling, they rationalize that the incident that caused their discomfort is so minor that it does not warrant a negative feeling. Our emotions don’t work that way. However, if we acknowledge the feeling, the result of our observation is incredibly liberating. Even if we’re not ready to forgive the person who disturbed us, we get a glimpse into our reaction and that opens the door to other possibilities. Just looking at other ways of reacting to a situation is a step towards loving ourselves, and the more we practice observing, the more layers of old patterns and ego are removed, bringing us closer to understanding and obtaining our enlightenment.
3) Recognize that you are the light of

vant of even our slightest negative emotion. Let’s say a co-worker or a mate says or does something that makes us angry. As we recognize the upset in our body, it becomes a signal to practice being conscious. The upset itself may be very slight but should be fully experienced. Then, as our feelings subside, look at the situation and objectively ask yourself, “What just happened?” This question allows us to move away from simply blaming the other person and instead allows us to observe what is going on inside ourselves. Remember: Do not focus on the other person!

the world. God, or whatever terms we might use to describe our spiritual selves, has created us in its own image and therefore we deserve respect and reverence. This Godly part of us serves as a light to the world. This may sound highly egocentric, but it’s just a fact. If we believe a divine force creates us, how can we not reflect that divinity? Recognizing we’re God’s presence in this physical world means accepting who we really are rather than identifying with our self-created and constantly critical ego. This gives us greater meaning, respect and responsibility in our lives. Our true reason for being is to bring this divine light into the physical world, however we might express it. It doesn’t mean we have to give up our current lives and devote yourselves to saving the planet. Rather it’s as simple as doing all the things we are already doing, but acting with our new perception of reality. If we consider ourselves as a light unto the world, we move closer to recognizing our true, enlightened, spiritual self. There’s a Talmudic saying that as we walk down the street, angels walk in front of us, harking to the world, “Behold, here comes the creation of God.” Accepting this as who we are means remembering our true identity, and through this recognition, we peel back our ego selves and reveal to ourselves and the world, the enlightened being of God that we are, have always been, and will remain for the rest of our lives and beyond.

Never Offer to Rid a Man of His
De mons By Edwin Harkness Spina
The
other day a man cursed me - up, down and sideways - with some of the most colorful expletives I’ve ever heard, for five minutes straight! In retrospect, I should have expected it - I had offered to get rid of his demons. You might think that offering to help someone would always be welcomed, especially if they first request it. But no, not always. It’s useful to be absolutely sure before you walk into such a potential mine field.
That was when Bobby’s friend John walked up. Bobby introduced us and John seemed interested in the energy work that I was describing. As soon as Bobby walked over to talk to some other friends he recognized, John had my full attention.
it would get rid of discordant energies surrounding him and he would “bliss out.”
Last Friday, I was relaxing with my friend, Bobby, enjoying a delightful pale ale at a local restaurant. I was describing my upcoming event where I would show people how to clear out their energy centers to relieve stress and feel light, free and energized.
John was a medium-sized man with a fluffy, white beard. He seemed very pleasant, but even in the dim light, I could see pain in his eyes.
I said, “Twenty bucks. Just come on Wednesday and I’ll make sure they’re gone.”
He asked what my event would do for him, if he were to attend. I told him
That’s when he leaned a little closer and asked, “How much would it cost to get rid of my demons?”
He said, “For 20 bucks, you can get rid of my demons?” I nodded, “Yes.”
21
I assumed that he had misunderstood me. I said, “I can get rid of your discordant energies, including your demons; but if you go back to thinking your negative thoughts, feeling your negative feelings and doing your negative acts, your demons will come back.” He ignored me and continued his expletive-filled tirade. While he paused for breath, I explained further, “Jesus healed lots of people. Do you remember what he would say afterwards? Go and sin no more.” I leaned closer to try and get him to focus on what I was saying, rather than sit back while he remained stuck in his anger. “Do you understand what he meant? It wasn’t a moral judgment. He was just telling people that after he healed them, not to go back to doing the same unhealthy things that got them sick in the first place.” Reason was no longer working with John. His stream of colorful (and uncommon) curse words continued. I tried to agree with John. “You’re right. I can’t get rid of your demons.” He continued his rant. I came to a realization and decided to share it.
while he continued screaming even louder, incoherently, and completely out of control.
Then John stepped back, took a deep breath and walked out the door.
I did not sense any physical danger. John was not the type who beat people up - more likely, he was the type who got beaten up, which would add to his tales of woe and add to the list of demons he could complain about.
Bobby shrugged and said, “Underneath it all, he’s actually a nice guy.”
Finally, I had enough. I said, “Forget it. My offer is withdrawn. Just continue on with your life, just as it is.”
“
I can’t get rid of your demons, because you’re too attached to them.
“
That’s when he exploded. He told me there was no way I could get rid of his demons. That I was a quack, a charlatan and a thief, preying on gullible people.
Before John could react, Bobby rushed over. He put his hand on John’s shoulder and asked him several times to “calm down and relax,” reminding him, “Ed is a very good friend of mine.”
“I can’t get rid of your demons, because you’re too attached to them.”
As if a light switch was turned off, John abruptly stopped and apologized to me.
The part of John’s face that was not covered by his beard got even redder,
I shook his hand and said, “Apology accepted.”
And I realized, so is almost everyone “a nice person, underneath it all.” It’s only when we get attached to our own image of who we are that things can get off track. It doesn’t matter if that perceived image is one full of virtue or one filled with demons. If you threaten someone’s self-image, he or she will rebel. And when you threaten to “take down” their self-image (by offering to rid a person of his demons, for example), you risk having that someone fight you for what they presume to be “who they are.” The point is that we are not our perceived demons or our perceived virtues. We are majestic spiritual beings living a human life. Ultimately, we are single points of awareness in the Oneness that is Reality. To identify with such superficial attributes is not in tune with our true nature and will lead to needless conflict. But while we continue to grow, evolve and approach these higher states of consciousness, unless you’re absolutely sure of a person’s intention, as a word of caution, never offer to rid a man of his demons.

God
is as close to you as your
next breath
Soul Transcendence is becoming aware of yourself as a Soul and as one
with God, not as a theory but as a living reality. Your Soul is who you truly are; it is more than your body, your thoughts, or your feelings. MSIA provides tools and techniques for experiencing your Soul and your own Divinity. We focus on how to incorporate spirituality into everyday life in a workable way. We call it “practical spirituality.” It allows you to tune more and more to your Soul and to increasingly live from that awareness.
“All that you want to be, you already are. All you have to do is move your awareness there and recognize the reality of your own Soul.” —John-Roger

Next Level to the hifting W
S
hen we desire to shift our life to the next level, we should ask these questions. Are you expressing thankfulness right now? Look at your level of gratitude and gratefulness. How authentic are you in your life? How adaptable are you? Can life and circumstance still surprise and delight you? Do you keep things simple or do you complicate life with drama and chaos? Do you listen to others? Do you command the space you came here to inhabit? Do you use your gifts and talents? Does your passion lead you to the next right thing?
Be Authentic “I had no idea that being my authentic self could make me as rich as I’ve become. If I had, I’d have done it a lot earlier.” Oprah Winfrey Great leaders are who they say they are. Vulnerability and humility are hallmarks of the authentic leader and create a positive, attractive energy. We all want to help an authentic person to succeed. There used to be a divide between one’s public self and private self, but the social internet has blurred that line. Tomorrow’s leaders
By Debbi Dachinger
are transparent about who they are online, merging their personal and professional lives together.
Be Responsive
“Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.” Charles Swindoll
Everyone you come in contact with today is a potential viral sparkplug, for better or for worse, and the winning leader is one who recognizes this and insists upon a culture of responsiveness. Whether the communication is email, voice mail, a note or a tweet, responding shows you care and allows others to make a positive impact on your organization.
Be Adaptable “When you’re finished changing, you’re finished.” Ben Franklin
Be Grateful “I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought, and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.” Gilbert Chesterton Setting one priority doesn’t mean we don’t do other things. However, we give each of our biggest goals top priority in our busy schedules and look for ways to tie our other activities to that priority. It encourages us to ask ourselves: What do we need to do this week to move this goal forward? The best way to stay focused is to ignore the back and forth swings and instead focus on the long run.
REMEMBER Do what makes your heart beat the fastest. Surround yourself with people smarter than yourself. Nurture and develop—go where you’ll stretch yourself and be forced to grow in ways you wouldn’t have planned. The point is this – we’re all going to be over-praised and we’re all going to be under-praised, but the key is to just buckle your seatbelt and keep on moving forward. If we’re not making mistakes and we’re not trying new things, then we’re not innovating. Learning from your mistakes is how you reinvent yourself and your life. Are you ready to shift? Debbi Dachinger is the Host of the syndicated “Dare to Dream” show, and bestselling awardwinning author. Debbi’s second book entitled: “Wisdom To Success: The Surefire Secrets to Accomplish All Your Dreams” will launch on September 17, 2013.

they used sound as a source of energy. That is just the biggest breakthrough, I think in any archaeological or historic arena. How is an archaeologist going to reach that conclusion? They can’t, unless they’ve studied that area of science. Because of my background with music, sound, electronics, then understanding the esoteric side of it, I realized we were dealing with sound.
WP: Yes. You have the advantage of looking at it really from a very metaphysical standpoint, which allows you to see it vastly different. MT: Yes. And then I started getting involved in the more spiritual aspect, going to a few channelings myself and getting exactly the information that I was finding on the ground. What’s exciting for me and I guess many other people is that I’m providing the physical evidence for much of Zecharia Sitchin’s work. WP: Right. And then here you are. MT: Adam’s Calendar description is virtually as if he’s described it perfectly, perched on the edge of a cliff, in line with Great Zimbabwe and the Pyramids at Giza. Measuring the sound frequencies and electromagnetic waves, it’s clear now, from a scientific perspective, that they are energy generating devices. They give energy every second of every day. WP: These are areas of civilizations that go back to what time, what year? MT: About 300,000 years. This is why the average academic, when they hear this, they shut down. They think that you’ve lost your mind. WP: Yes, that’s exactly right. It’s way
outside their beliefs, so they don’t want to have a conversation about it. It’s so beyond our periphery, we don’t look into it. It’s sad.
MT: Just like many people. So I hope that this message is not ahead of its time. I trust it’s not, because we finally have a large group of scientists that understand the science and the metaphysics at the same time and know that it’s the same thing. Otherwise, the next part is out of context. WP: Yeah, a larger group. In some respects it is still limited but there is a lot of momentum. MT: So, we can really get into the science of this, and I believe if we go and investigate these stone circles, we can give the entire world free energy tomorrow. But the authorities will want to disprove any findings. WP: Yes, they don’t want that at all. But on the other side, you potentially have people who would be interested in exploring, supporting, and being co-partners to discover it, because of the money issue. MT: Trying to make some money out of it is really not the intention. The intention is the opposite. WP: Exactly. That would be fantastic. So what are the new things you’re looking at? MT: The brand new things are the sacred stones, and the vortex fields that they create. WP: Are those in the same area you’re speaking about, in South Africa? MT: Oh, yeah. Well I delivered one to Nassim Haramein’s laboratory and re-
search institute in Hawaii. They got very excited. These are donut-shaped stones that are exactly the same shape as the toroid vortex models that we see in movies like Thrive. I started looking at the donut shapes. I went, “hold on, these are far more important than I ever imagined.” And I’d already had measurements of the energy fields around them done, not with electronic devices, but with dowsing. We used very accurate dowsing devices. So much so, it stripped the skin off one of my friend’s hands. That’s how strong these fields are around this donut-shaped stone.
WP: Oh goodness. MT: It activated some sort of a spark, you know, they’re obviously bombarded with all kinds of frequencies. How the stone works, I believe, is that you put a sound frequency into it. It creates the electromagnetic and vortex field around it. That’s how these things work. We were bringing one into the US, and Homeland Security stopped the plane. They made me get off the plane and open my bag on the tarmac. So when this happened, I went, “the stone works!” WP: Very funny. Then they let you go? And they didn’t take it? MT: No, I was really relieved. Now it’s up to Nassim to do some studies. WP: He’s been quite a visionary. MT: He has been, but we need to see what he comes up with on a practical level. That’s the thing. There are, however, other people who have been developing these cone-shaped, donut-shaped vortex coils. Continued on Page 39

How to Awaken the Zentrepreneur in You
4 Steps to Manifest Fearlessness and Peak Productivity
W
hatever it is we do, whether we run a household, our own business, or work for a company, there is a “zentrepreneur” within us all—a soul seeking release and a creative idea seeking expression and manifestation. This is the heart and soul of our being—our human being! It is our innate desire to grow, to explore, and to be creative. Zentrepreneurs know this as nirvana, here and now, heaven on earth. We know that we are meant to be free and flow fearlessly. We came to this earth to express ourselves, to interact with one another, to learn, and to make this world a better place. Yet many souls have become trapped - imprisoned by fear, doubt and insecurity. Rather than embrace change and uncertainty with poise and confidence, the timid allow it to hold them back. Indeed, we can be our own enemy. We can get in our own way. The secret to getting past this fear lies in tapping our inner zentreprenuer and applying four fundamental steps to inspiration and success—the ring of peace.
by John J. Murphy
1. Let Be
The first step to freedom is “Let Be.” Zentrepreneurs know that we cannot change what already exists. We have to accept it like it or not. We have to learn from it. Why? Because it already is. It happened. This includes people, problems, circumstances, weather, long lines, slow computers, traffic, difficult bosses, and painful losses. There is no value in complaining about it or getting upset. There is no undoing it. There is no wisdom in letting it bring us down. Stress only makes things worse. The Law of Attraction delivers to us manifestations that match our emotional vibration. Complaining, stressing and being anxious only calls more into our lives to complain and stress about. How wise is that?
The sage zentrepreneur within us offers us an alternative— the capacity to transcend these emotional temptations. We just have to recognize them when we see them and avoid the trap. Rather than becoming anxious and fearful, we can choose to think differently. We can learn to see what “is” as simply a blessing in disguise, a lesson to be learned. For example, the people who challenge us or annoy us most might be among our greatest teachers. They give us an opportunity to learn patience, wisdom and spiritual presence.
2. Let Go
The second step in the Ring of
29
3. Let See
When we accept what is and learn to let go of any emotional distress drawing destructive drama into our lives, we experience step three: “Let See.” This step involves a shift in our perception. We see the world very differently. The people who used to annoy us now appear differently. We feel compassion for them. We recognize their suffering or ignorance. We forgive them “for they know not what they do.” We offer a helping hand. We reach out from a higher place—a higher frequency and vibration—knowing that this is really the only way we can be of any true assistance. Misery may love company, but zentrepreneurs know that this match in frequencies does not solve problems. It compounds
”
Peace is “Let Go.” Rather than resist what is, we accept it, feel it, examine it, learn from it, and then let it go. Resistance only makes that which we are resisting stronger. Why strengthen the enemy? Push back invites push back. Force meets force. Try dancing with the problem instead. Embrace it and then let it go. Admit there is a problem and then release it. Denial will get you nowhere. Rationalization and defensiveness obstruct flow and attach you to the problem. Learn to let it go. There are many proven techniques to assist with this, including EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), Meditation, TRE (Trauma and Tension Release Exercises), yoga, tai chi, and healing sounds. Identify and choose a practice that resonates with you - and then practice it! The only obstacle to releasing fears, phobias and limiting beliefs is you!

them. The only way to really help someone in pain is to help them change the channel and see things differently.
3. Let Flow
The fourth step in the Ring of Peace often results in experiencing a sense of awe and wonder. When we let be, let go, let see and experience “Let Flow,” it is as if we are living a dream come true. We are “in the zone” as some athletes like to put it. We experience a sense of fearlessness, timelessness and peak productivity. We make ourselves available to a much higher frequency of spiritual energy and we channel this into our work and relationships. We literally light up the room. People feel our presence. They are inspired by our energy - or zenergy! In return, we reap what we sow. By giving unto others, we are given more to give. We become an instrument of peace, a fountain of love, a beacon of light. By emptying our bowl, we receive more. We channel spiritual wisdom, sacred joy and emotional intelligence. This powerful inner peace then reveals itself to the rest of the world as “good ideas” resulting in positive changes. We make the world a better place. Have you awakened the zentrepreneur in you?

GMO or Non Gmo
That is the Question Ultimate health is not a luxury it’s a necessity. Treating oneself by eating healthy foods once in a while, or by occasionally engaging in some form of exercise will not make us healthy. Eating healthy foods, regular exercise, and healthy thoughts are necessities that need to be practiced every day of our lives. It is a lifestyle. What’s interesting is that we say we are going to start to eat well or drink our green drinks, create an exercise program etc, after vacation, or after the relatives visit or when we get this new job. I think we all can relate to this great way of procrastination, “Yeah, I’m going to start next week.”

move our body (walk, dance, run, etc) and watch our thoughts consistently every day. That’s a good formula to live by! But how do we get back on track? We might think we are doing everything right, but yet we still don’t feel good. Well, there are some very important ingredients to this recipe for great health.
(info taken from - “http://www.nongmoproject.org/about-gmos-2/” GMO’s strip our foods of their nutrients and are injected with chemically manipulated organism—ones that our internal systems cannot identify; and don’t know how to process; or illuminate from our cells. So they grow inside causing in-

selves and be aware of what is in our foods. We think we might be eating all the right foods but the question to ask is, “Are the foods that we eat GMO or NON GMO?” Next question - What is GMO?
The best way to avoid this is to eat NONGENETICALLY MODIFIED FOODS (NON GMO). How do we know if the foods that we eat are NON GMO? If you are in doubt, just buy organic. Here are

Whole Foods Markets are starting to label their NON GMO foods and most of their 365 brand items are NON GMO.

going on in our bodies. Adding in raw veggies and greens with each meal or in between meals will also help. The damages from all the GMO foods that we have already eaten, can be reversed and healed by eating strictly organic fresh veggies, grains, flours and grass-fed meats. Scary thought not knowing what’s in our foods. But whatever the situation, we must take the responsibility and do our own research! Be aware, take the right action and precaution, vote for food labeling in California and buy healthy clean foods. In the USA, we are having a very difficult time getting food labeling laws passed. The Europeans, China, Japan have kicked GMO’s out of their countries. Why can’t we do the same? Vote for food labeling for all our foods at the next election. There are many documentaries on GMO. Pay attention. When we are educated on what goes into our foods, we make healthier choices and become less fearful. It is up to us to eat healthy. FACT: our foods are injected with Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO). Here are 2 documentaries that explain GMO in detail, and how they affect our lives, our health and our freedom. Be aware! “http://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=2DOCbI64T6o” “http://www.amazon.com/Genetic-Roulette-The-Gamble-Lives/dp/ B00AVS2OKA” “Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information on it.”Boswell To be or not to be healthy is our choice and our responsibility. - In Loving Light!

Our Teeth Are The Root Of Our Collective
Unconscious ol low ing the pain in my teeth down through the bones of my jaw into the middle of the chest, it appeared like lines of fire and light leading to a place in the center of my chest. The place in my chest appeared as a ball of light, which in turn was connected by a river of light to a much vaster light, outside of the body. That sun-like light is the collective unconscious mind of the whole human race. It seems that our teeth connect each individual to the whole collective unconsciousness of humanity.
”
These memories are stored in the DNA of each cell of each human body. It seems that each person’s teeth are their individual evolutionary link to existence itself.
”
F
by Swami Davageet
This human collective unconscious is a mental mythological history that has been left behind by humanity on its long journey. It is the record of humanity’s biological evolutionary history. It is the millions of years of mankind’s experiential memories. Stored
and recorded as a code in the DNA in each cell of the human body. It is our human biological collective inheritance. This record of the path that humanity has followed during the long journey of evolution is the true human collective unconscious mind.
35 35
Our bodies remember our evolutionary history back to the beginning of time, long before there were human beings. These memories are stored in the DNA of each cell of each human body. It seems that each person’s teeth are their individual evolutionary link to existence itself. They hold memories connecting each person to the human collective unconscious mind, and contain a complete record of all their memories The teeth are a personal akashic record of everything that has happened to an individual during their whole evolution. Our teeth continue to record all that is happening, even now. Memories stored in teeth? It may seem a little strange, but it is not. Crystals are able to store much information. Your computer chips, for example, store millions of pieces of
information. The tooth enamel is made up of millions of tiny crystals, and each one is like a computer chip. The brain is a bio-computer, and the teeth contain all its memories from today and going back through millions of years of evolution. If the teeth could be used to release the memories they hold, it is possible to find the roots of many diseases there. If we knew how to use the teeth correctly the madhouses would be empty. Just taking out the right tooth, just taking out the right nerve, cleaning out the infection in the teeth and the gums can clean the whole body and mind. Working with the teeth can be very healing for the whole person. I found that certain of my teeth contain memories of my family and friends. Sometimes within the same tooth the different root nerves are connected to different people and different events. My lower right first molar has memories of my mother, for example. This is of great significance for those who meditate, because the roots of all human conditionings are there. The teeth can be used to bring consciousness and awareness to the oldest human conditionings. It is these ancient conditionings, our deepest unconscious, that are the invisible barriers to meditation. The ancient-most biological male and female conditionings are also found in the teeth. Our biological bondage lies in our teeth. When we find a way for the teeth to release their memories, we open the door to go beyond biological bondage. Then meditation can reach the depths where authentic transformation happens. Meditation is the only way to ultimate transformation for a human being. Memories are locked in the deep layers of the collective unconscious mind, and the teeth can be used as the key. With awareness, the true seeker can bring all the unconscious memories in the teeth to consciousness. This will be a tremendous breakthrough in their meditation and will enable people to go deep enough in their meditation for the
real transformation to happen. Meditation is from the stars, and biology is from the earth. Biology blindly pulls us to the earth and knows nothing of higher consciousness. Meditation can take us home, but one must first overcome the gravitational pull of thousands of years of biology. Our higher consciousness has a force too; it is levitation. As gravity pulls us downward, levitation pulls us upwards. Meditation brings the upward vertical movement to our consciousness, thereby offering balance. Masters throughout human history have shown that meditation and enlightenment are possible. They are the proof that meditation is the only possibility through which enlightenment can enter. For those who meditate, it is the attachment to the body-mind that is their biological bondage, and until this attachment is dissolved it is too difficult for an ordinary person to go deep enough in their meditation for enlightenment to happen. The older religions knew something of this but their priests, being unenlightened, made the wrong interpretations. No enlightened being forms a religion. It is the followers that form the religions. The religious traditions all try to fight biology. They tell you to renounce the body, to abuse it, torture it into submission, and force it to surrender. This is sheer madness. It is the ego, the personality-self, the mind, which has been conditioned into the religious belief system. It is a mistake to fight with the body and the mind. This, in fact, strengthens the ego. One out of a thousand people who try to meditate may succeed in going deep enough to reach the abysmal depths where enlightenment can happen. For the others, their biological bondage is too much.

The Happiness Hoax
e
Transcending Our Addiction to The Illusion of Pleasure
verything is beautiful. All is blissful. I feel invincible, hyperexcited, endorphins pouring through my veins. Laughter sounds all around me. My universe feels like endless positivity. I am shielded from any negativity. I’m higher than the sky. My life’s a mess. My finances suck. My partner and I are miserable. I don’t have the energy I used to have. I feel so let down by the job I am doing each day. Boy was I stabbed in the back by my “best friend”. I could not feel more disappointed with myself, others and my life. Please just shoot me.
We all have experienced moments of extreme pleasure as well as the hardships that accompany extreme pain. At the same time, all of us would rather experience more of the pleasure and less of the pain... Or would we? Happily ever after, the pursuit of happiness, happy birthday, happily married—clearly our lives have been inundated with the happiness pill, so why is clinical depression at an all-time high? Well… while we have created a culture that pursues and is almost obsessed with pleasure and happiness, we have simultaneously created a culture where we have become blind to parts of themselves and others. Who am I? What would I love to do with my life? How does the universe really work? What is God? What are my emotions? How do I evolve my being, presence and inspiration? How to I live from my heart? If you will notice, this group of questions transcends seeking emotions. When we become courageous enough to pursue these questions relentlessly, we become empowered to focus beyond the illusions of happiness and sadness in order to discover some of the universes secrets. Imagine a pendulum. Let’s focus our attention on three balls in the pendulum: the ball all the way on the right, the ball all the way on the left, and the ball directly in the center. Let’s call the ball on the left Happiness, the ball on the right Sadness, and the ball in the center Stillness. With a pendulum, if we pull the ball on the left (Happiness) out, we are all

familiar with what happens. The ball all the way to the right (Sadness) will fly out and back. In fact, the further you pull the ball out on the left (Happiness) the further the ball on the right (Sadness) will fly out. The relationship is fairly proportional. But what happens to the ball in the center? Right, it barely moves, and the center of the ball in the center does not move at all. Now think of the scenario of getting really HIGH on a drug and the inevitable crash that soon follows. Most of us have isolated this experience to substances outside of ourselves, i.e. being addicted to gambling, sex, drugs, food…, you name it. But what if at the very core, it is our addiction to pleasure/happiness that causes our sadness in the first place. What if the happier we got about something, the sadder we would eventually be?
sitated the experience of sadness at another point in space time? Just like the pendulum, EVERY time. What if manifested reality necessitated the experience of dualism expressed as happiness and sadness? But simultaneously, at the center of the center exists the eternal, unmoving presence. How do we get to this place? How do we transcend flying off the handle like the balls on the pendulum? So is the key to life to remain centered, never experiencing happiness or sadness? Quite the contrary, the human mind at some level seeks pleasure. That will not change. We fantasize, imagine, seek pleasure and run from pain. At the same time, as we become aware that the happiness we experience is directly proportional to the sadness we will soon receive and that neither is true, both illusions of the mind to be transcended, we become empowered to evolve through a paradigm. By discovering the happiness hoax we become empowered to experience BOTH happiness and sadness for what they are. At the same time, when we are ready to transcend BOTH to become centered and appreciative from a place of fulfillment, we can do so as well. By learning how to equilibrate our perceptions, we can transcend the illusions of our emotions and become centered. By transcending our judgments we become equilibrated. This process becomes a lifetime practice.
What if our society has created the fantasy of a one-sided ideal that we are striving for, where because of the very nature of the universe is impossible to attain? Where the very nature of existence necessitated the experience of equal and opposite sadness to every happiness experience that you had? What if all that actually existed was the center, the unmoving perfectly balanced center, and our lives are mainly experienced as the oscillation of the illusions of happiness and sadness.
Life becomes a lot more magical, a lot more mysterious as we transcend the happiness hoax and allow ourselves to embrace what lies beyond the illusions of the mind. Life itself is seeking pleasure, and then transcending the addiction to its illusion. The more often we allow ourselves to transcend our mind’s addictions, the more often we become centered, like the center of the center ball in the pendulum, unmoving as the world moves around us. We become the master as opposed to the universe’s ping pong ball.
What if the experience of happiness neces-

WP: Is there a connection between the Anunaki and Atlanteans?
WP: Yeah. I feel like, if this were a graph, we’re really moving up the slope, and it’s going to really start to bloom very, very fast. MT: For me, the most exciting thing is that there can be no doubt any more that my research has been worth it. We’ve found the missing, vanished civilization. This is one of the big ones. And it’s linked to gold, so it makes a direct connection to
MT: Absolutely. The technology used in Atlantis was Anunaki technology. They’re masters of technology. The Anunaki are probably one of highest masters of technology in the universe. And we’re talking billions of years. The Anunaki presence on earth just goes back 500,000 years, and this is how often people get confused and start writing the emails and say, “you don’t know what you’re talking about, the Anunaki are much older.” I say, “I know they’re a lot older, but I’m talking about their presence on earth. So let’s first define what we’re talking about.” They’re masters and they’ve been doing this on many, many planets. However, they’ve also risen in consciousness.
WP: Yeah, that would make sense. MT: A lot of this information is downloaded to me. I walk in there and I look at it, and either immediately or a day or a week later, I figure out what’s going on. It’s interesting, you know? WP: Well it’s quite a gift. You are quite a talented, gifted man. MT: I must have chosen to do this, because otherwise I’d be baking bread, working in a mine, or singing. Feeding my ego, playing songs to large crowds. Although now, I would sing songs I’ve written now, and be performing with a different headspace. WP: So a conscious you is present, and performing (laughing) rather than the ego part of you saying, “okay, give me more applause.” I hear you. MT: I mean, the last time I performed was in 2002 actually, to about 9,000 people at a reunion of all the Continued on Page 42

2013 Astrological Psychology
OCTOBER
Aries - 3/21 – 4/19 You are certainly on the track of abundance. How much and how quickly depends on your personal effort. In certain areas of your life, you are much more tuned in to your inner voice than in other parts. Remember your inner voice is equally available in all parts of your life! Take delivery? It’s guidance comes in silence. Sometimes you recognize your inner voice because of the comfort there. At other times, you miss its guidance because of the emotional circumstances clouding it and/or pushing it into the background. The information is still all there. Go into your inner silence and inquire! The totality of all that is/was/will be/ may be is knocking on your door. The key is to let go some more. If not sure where to begin, let go of all attachment of pride in what you do well. Do this and a space opens for the unseen blessings to come in. One of your most helpful aspects is your intensity. Know it, love it, sit with it and learn to direct your intensity in silence with a sincere intention/prayer. Taurus - 4/20 – 5/20 It is time to catch the ‘ripe fruit’ because it is falling from the tree of opportunity. Some opportunities have already arrived, while others will require a little patience and awareness. What is an asset and what is a liability? An asset is there because you are self-assured and know who you are. A liability occurs because the conditioning is covering up many aspects of your potential. Part of your conditioning is morality. On the surface, morality is a spiritual asset. Examine the depth of your moral principles and determined whose they are and to what degree you have accepted them as part of your world view? Also look at how you were raised and which parts of that conditioning is an expression of your purpose in life. Morals also impact your world view about who is in need and why. In silence many pieces will come
together and rise to the surface of your conscious awareness leaving you with less blind conditioning and more clarity of purpose. What happens in the future is much more self-awareness. The veils of reality will part and your view will deepen and sweeten.
panion of the miser is laziness. These English words are archetypal and the interested one must dive deep into the depths with curious enthusiasm to plumb the deeper blessings and healing. The future yields massive receptivity for the one that moves forward.
Gemini - 5/21 – 6/20 The internal fire is the thunderbolt that is ready for more specific direction. While you are attempting to slow down and emerge from cover, the fire is right there. Knowing that you are protected, and that you are becoming a greater part of your life’s purpose can be comforting. The things that used to scare you are mostly imaginary. You are more ready for a breakthrough than you realize. Trust, and notice the way you are holding the string on the danger. You are creating circumstances that give the appearance of working very hard. There is great skill in juggling all you have in the air, and at any time, the rug can be pulled out from under your feet. You hold all the strings and can decide to let go of the façade.
Leo - 7/23 – 8/22 Inner guidance is at the heart of your teaching this month. Settle into the sweetness of that teaching from within. You know how to let go. Do so as if you know nothing and a new and deeper layer of guidance will emerge.
Harness the thunder as you slow down to produce a healing. This healing will enable you to face the abyss. In the abyss, you will discover an even deeper healing. Before you are half way through, you will have to deal with guilt. It is inherited and is a millstone around your neck. Let it go and be ready to grab hold of the next step. In doing this work, the deep awareness of the Creator within will come into your life with full force and with greater support. Cancer - 6/21 – 7/22 Friendliness is the key. Seeing God’s presence in everyone all the time is the goal. By holding everyone in that awareness, the circumstances will melt and mold into divine right action. To hold onto what you have, to withdraw, or to stop is a miserly act. Beware of the miser. Your highest and biggest healing is coming up from your depths. Welcome it, expect it, and it will arrive. A com-
Over time water wears away boulders and produces sand used in new construction. The first step is to be open about what is being said, so that something can be seen and understood. Take action! This will provide the medium for this new awareness to come to light. A habit of laziness is keeping the lid on what feels like a burden. It’s the right time for completion and you are now ready! Your maturity and your inner guidance allows you to proceed without knowing exactly what you will encounter. Congratulations on the fine and hard work you have done so as to arrive at this point with so much going for you. There is great success in your future. You will ride on the back of your fear, and there will be great cheering and applauses. Virgo – 8/23 – 9/22 Go with the flow of life. Resistance is futile, so just ‘let it be’ and you will be amazed. While sitting back you may be accused of doing nothing or of being lazy. Know that for now you must sit back for the change to happen. Going with the flow and understand that what it means is a blessing. Change will lift you beyond your comfort level and carry you to new heights. There is a new freedom and a new normal at the other end of the tunnel. In the future, you will know the experience of the dark night and you will
have the success of riding atop the light of consciousness and the depth of the Void at the same time. The outsider will stop looking into the distance for what is right at hand. The lock on the gate is open, turn around and be with what is right now. Libra - 9/23 – 10/22 Courage, courage, courage: Right where you are, right where you have landed in the life is the perfect spot for you to sprout roots and to grow. Dig into the fertile soil and/or the rocks and sprout roots. You are supported and loved right where you are. Know it deeply. While there appears to be a stalling of the manifestation of what you want, being in harmony with what is, smoothes the way. While your tendency is to be ready to fight, it is time to allow your awareness to part the veils in peace. From there a healing occurs. You are holding back the depth of the reservoir of maturity. Welcome the wisdom that you are, that you have accumulated and that is your right. Do it now. Your journey requires you do some traveling. Step by step, feel the earth under your feet allowing your maturity and your courage to keep you moving so that the healing can occur. Be prepared to compromise and to find a suitable path through that compromise. Be ready to give up something you want, thereby opening the door for something new to come in. Scorpio - 10/23 – 11/21 Sadness and pain is the result of wanting what is to be different, and then thinking about what it means. The conclusions you come to produce feelings that are reinforced by the meaning you have concluded. Wow, like a hamster chasing its tail. There is a moral dilemma behind it all, which holds self-righteousness in place. If you are lucky, the awareness from deep within will surface, allowing you to see through the veils. Conditioning is a big part of your dilemma. Are you who you have been trained and taught to be, without considering for yourself if it really fits for you! Family, friends, country, socio-economics, religion etc. all have been laid on you before you were 5 years old. Is it ok for you to hold onto all that conditioning? Decide for yourself which customs, beliefs and ways of thinking are serving you and serving God.

While you are practiced at seeing beyond illusion, it is time to fine-tune this skill. You are ready to let go of some of the conditioning and spread your wings. Do some writing as you look at your conditioning a little deeper. Holding on to the dearest and most valuable could be a trap. For purposes of exercising complete openness, let go of all ‘sacred cows’ and see what stays, what goes and what changes.
to distract you from the responsibility for recognizing and working on your life purpose. Look beyond the illusions that surround you. What is really Important and what is busy work? This will plunge you into the abyss, which will be uncomfortable and possibly a little frightening. Be gentle and allow yourself to just go with the flow within the abyss and you will experience a spiritual breakthrough!
Sagittarius - 11/22 – 12/21 Many circumstances from the past are coming to the surface and are ripe for clearing. Use your awareness of all things being connected, to allow the deeper meaning and messages of those circumstances to arise, to be understood, and then to clear by themselves. Notice your tendency to project responsibility onto someone else or the circumstance in your life rather than taking full responsibility. This is tricky, so be alert as you dive into the depths of your life and your path.
The stress mentioned earlier is a cover for your readiness to fight to survive. This is habit. Stop comparing your insides to others outsides and you can stop feeling like an outsider. You will recognize that the gate is open and you are just as welcome as anyone. You will discover that holding on to your busy work is like being a miser. Holding on to what you have rather than moving to the next level of success is being a miser. Stop it! Your breakthrough is eminent and requires that you stop putting on a show, stop stalling and decide to pursue what is really important. Get started and before long your receptivity will start a self-generating momentum that will carry you further, safer and faster toward your life purpose.
You are ready to complete, so all of these nuances are important for you to consider to maximize the benefit of your inner work. Stay tuned in to your work, there is an important transformation in your future. Many pieces will fit into the puzzle, completing many parts of the picture, and resulting in a transformative event. Capricorn - 12/22 – 1/19 Riding on the back of success has cost you a lot and you have rationalized that it was/is worth it. You are exhausted! Do you think you can run on empty forever? While there is a mechanical aspect to what keeps you going, you are still being drained! What are you running from and what are you afraid of ? You have the innate creativity to’ bob and weave’, trust that! Something from your past is coming forth to enrich your participation in the life! Slow down. Allow the ordinariness within to shine from your heart and the circumstances you fear will melt! Along the way, you will have an opportunity to remove all conditioning! This will happen gradually and naturally as you step into a deeper heart space. The conditioning you got before age 5 will reveal itself to be an important commitment for you today; it will drop away; or it will morph into something more useful in support of your life purpose. Aquarius - 1/20 – 2/18 Your stress is self-imposed and meant
Pisces - 2/19 – 3/20 It is time to let go of everything that you hold near and dear in order to create room for grace to come in. This does not mean divorcing your partner, giving all your money away and quitting your job? It means to let go of attachments! This includes projecting meaning onto someone else or some set of circumstances. Projections deflect a teaching that is meant for you! Your past wants to come to the surface for completion. Stop projecting and face what is there. Gain a new understanding of your life and it will propel you from the place you have decided is safe into the air with a new set of supportive and energetically compatible companions. All of this adds up to a new adventure. At best, it resembles an innocent childlike curiosity as you move into the light. Anything less are clues about what is holding you back from realizing your life’s potential. Go for it! www.Discerning-Wisdom.com Swaha@Discerning-Wisdom.com

South African bands from the eighties. We went on stage and the people started singing along with our songs… and… Wow! I couldn’t believe it!
WP Now you still live in South Africa, but you spend a fair amount of your time travelling abroad. What portion of your year is abroad? MT: Well this is the biggest, every year it seems to get longer. So it’s four months away from home. WP: Wow. Yeah, a long time. MT: We want to find a place in the USA, somewhere in L.A. or the west coast because I like the climate here. It’s very similar to our climate. WP: Good surf too. MT: Yeah, exactly. Live here for three months and live in Europe for three months because of my Czech heritage; I’ve got a EU passport. And then we can do presentations and tours throughout Europe. WP: Have you done anything in South America? MT: No, but we have to do that. We have some invitations but we just haven’t done it. WP: What’s on the horizon, the immediate horizon, in terms of projects for you? Are there any new areas you’re scoping out? MT: My new book, Ubuntu Contributionism: A World Without Money. If you Google Ubuntu Contributionism, you’ll get a lot of information about it already, and our website is up. We’ve got members all over the world. Plus we’ve also started the Ubuntu party in South Africa; it’s a registered political party. And I’m running for president next year.
MT: And if you elect us, we’ll dissolve the government. The people governed by the people, for the people. WP:: Very exciting! MT: And as quickly as possible, get rid of the money. There’s a very simple process.
WP: True. WP: I’m not too familiar with the concept, but from what you just shared, it makes perfect sense. MT: If your little community is doing something another community in the mountain can’t do, for reasons that are obvious, even geographic or for resource reasons, this is how the spillover of the Ubuntu community works. It’s not a closed system. Any scientists will know what I’m talking about. Whenever you have a closed system, it will fail. You need to open it up, because everything is connected. One of the biggest mistakes communities make is when they become self-sustained. That becomes their suffocation. You’ve got to sustain yourself and all your neighboring communities. You let the energy flow from your own community into all the neighboring communities. And they do the same. So you become the seed of the toroid vortex field, your community. It spews the energy out and it sucks the energy in, and other ones do the same next to you, so it becomes this completely enmeshed, entangled, toroid vortex field of energy, of people doing things, and sharing, and reaching incredible abundance. WP: Fantastic. Here’s my last question for you, Is Michael Tallinger a Whole Person? MT: No way. I’m so far from being whole, it’s ridiculous. Sheesh. I wonder if anyone thinks that they’re a whole person. I guess maybe some people do. WP: They do.
WP:Congratulations! How exciting is that. MT: It’s funny, but it’s true. WP: No, it’s wonderful!
lightenment? That is a whole bunch of BS in itself, because most so-called teachers of enlightenment don’t even know what the word ‘enlightenment’ means! They teach it and preach it but they don’t understand what it means, they keep giving you descriptions, but they don’t actually give you an answer.
MT: In fact, how would I even know what a whole person is? How do you define a whole person? Is it ‘whole’ because I’ve been sitting on a mountain meditating for twenty years and I think I’ve reached an understanding of en-
MT: They keep describing the same thing with different words. I’ve started doing that now because I’ve reached a sense of understanding of what enlightenment is in the last six months. I’m still struggling with it because I don’t want to be too arrogant and start preaching to the people, but I tell them, this is what I believe it is. And it seems to be working. It’s reaching a level of comprehension of our enslavement status that allows you to take the necessary steps to reach higher consciousness. That is a moment of enlightenment. Until then, you remain a slave, ignorant and full of ego. So for me, enlightenment is coming to terms with the fact that we’re a slave species. And we can choose to do something about it. And suddenly the messages of Christ, and Buddha, and Krishna, and so forth, all their messages suddenly all start sounding the same, and they resonate with that ‘being’ purpose. WP: No question. So I want to compliment you in a huge way, in the sense that you have this humility about you, and you recognize no matter how aware, no matter how conscious you are, that there’s this infinite space for you to move into. MT: And once I’ve moved into the furthest corner of infinity, there’s no need for me to be here. WP: So thank you very much, I’m really honored to have you here. I really appreciate you and your work. MT: Well thank you. I feel honored to be here. You’ve made your beautiful space available to us.
