Staring At Everything

I have stayed awake for countless hours, staring into nothing Wondering what awaits me when I sleep, staring into nothing
I have waited for so long for something to change, staring into nothing Hoping for secrets to be revealed, staring into nothing
I have seeked endlessly for meaning, staring into nothing.....
Then, I realized, that the nothing that I was staring at was everything
I was staring at the walls, the trees, the rivers, the mosques, churches, synagogues, the temples, the shadows, the dust, the pebbles, the birds, the stray cats, the homeless, the rich, the poor, the spiritual men, the wise women, the flowers, the clouds, the rain, the moon....I was staring at the sun...
Then, I realized, This whole time, I was staring at myself.... I am Everything...Everything is Me...
I looked at myself, and I saw everything that I was waiting for.
I realized dreams, I initiated change, I discovered secrets, I have given meaning to myself, I have learned, and taught, I have been shown the light, and have shone my own light...now, I no longer stare at nothing...Now, I Gaze...at Everything....

A Plead for Change

If you knew how the universe affected you on a constant basis, your awareness would expand a million fold. If you knew how your energy is affected by your thoughts, by other peoples thoughts, by the moon, the planets, the sun, the tides...you would never wonder why you are feeling a certain way. If you were aware of how much our culture affects you, our buildings, our subways, the food we eat, the entertainment we watch, you would understand why you do the things you do, feel the things you feel.....

I have recently, within the past few years, and more so within the past few months (because of my Goddess partner) become aware of the effects of galactic events that cause changes not only in our psyche, but also in our physical bodies. The ancient civilizations were aware of these effects, and they were also aware of how to protect themselves and prepare themselves for these changes.

Change is neither positive nor negative. Change can be negative if we perceive it as such and it can be positive if we perceive it as such. When we accept change for just that, change, we then are equipped to handle change effectively, without stress or feelings of helplessness. This is our problem, we believe that we have control over everything, we stopped relying on our senses, and become completely dependent on our minds to tell us how to deal with change, whether it be the most minute change or a major shift.

Our sense are capable of dealing with change on a macro scale, but only if we allow our senses to deal with it, without letting our minds get in the way. We underestimate the power of our feelings, our intuition. We downplay the power and magnitude of our connection to all of creation. We have been conditioned to believe that our minds are separate from everything, that we as individuals feel things separately from everyone and everything else. We have been lead to believe that everything is coincidental, and things happen randomly. This is true to a certain extent, random events do exist, but out of the randomness comes a deep connection, out of the randomness comes a message of linkage to everything that occurs around us.

Change happens when the Gods and Goddesses, the Universal Consciousness, the Mind of the World, etc, decide that a shift needs to occur in order for evolution to continue, in order for our planet to move on to the next phase of creation. Creation never stops, its not as if the earth and all of her inhabitants were created billions of years ago and then it just stopped, it never stops...it continues and will continue...with or without us....the decision belongs to us for whether or not we want to be a part of this continuous adventure of evolving creation.

Our culture has entered a period where we perceive change, evolution and creation as something that has stopped, and in a way, we have stopped it, for ourselves. We stopped living with the earth the way our ancestors have lived, the way the indigenous cultures live. When we stopped living in conjunction with the universe, we stopped our evolution. We when disconnected from spirit, our evolution stopped. We started to invent tools, invent technology, this is not evolution at all...this is change that is not set forth by a shift in the cosmos, inventions that come from the human mind are merely a product of our man made society, not an evolution in consciousness.

Inventions are not bad, that is not what I am saying, there are many inventions that have brought much light onto this planet. What I am saying is that inventions have not propelled us further down the path of evolution, I could even argue that certain inventions have halted evolution. I wrote about this “de-evolution”, as I call it, in some of my other articles of reflection...

Some writers, philosophers, environmentalists, etc, have brought this to our attention, and have been for a few decades now. They have warned us that if we continue down this path of false perception, we will bring ourselves to extinction, some even say, we will bring the whole planet to extinction. Then you have some other thinkers who say that the end of the planet and our lives is inevitable, something that will naturally occur...this to me, is based on nonsense. The earth, and all of her inhabitants have survived many cataclysmic events, events that we deem as “apocalyptic”. The difference from then and now is the fact that we no longer live with the earth, we live against her. And yes, I say we including me...I am not a hunter-gatherer, I do not live as the indigenous tribes of Australia or Africa or South America live. I live the way you, who are reading this, lives.

The thing is this, I want to change, I do not want to continue living this way knowing that this way of life will bring about a total failure of our species and our planet. I cannot sleep at night peacefully knowing that the way i am living is bringing about extinctions of certain species and total collapses of major ecosystems. I cannot pretend that i am a being of Love and Light if I sit here and consume just as YOU do...

I write this as a plead, practically on my knees, asking you to research what I am saying to you. I am not an expert on the environment, on ecosystems or on anthropology, but the research i have done over the years (not purposely, material on this subject seems to just fall into my lap), has convinced me that we are not living according to the natural law that allows life to continue in peace. I am convinced that our society, our culture, our inventions, are bringing about a total destruction of our planet and our species. 

I do not sit here writing this out of mere paranoia, or conspiracy, this is why I beg you to research..please...consider changing things with me...this needs to happen on a mass scale...i can go and live as a hunter gatherer if I learn the techniques that are needed to survive and if I re-learn what our ancestors knew about living in harmony with nature, i can leave this society, this culture...it would be difficult at first, and I may risk my life doing so, but it can be done....but there is one thing stopping me, and that is my love for humanity, my love for my brothers and sisters...I cannot abandon you...that is why I beg of you to reflect on what needs to be changed so that we can go back to living in harmony with all of creation....with the animals, with nature. Can we not be leaders of this world without being destructive? Can we not be self aware without wanting to rule everything, forcing everything to live the way we perceive as being right? I know its possible to live civilized without hurting the planet and its inhabitants...it has been done...long long ago....I beg you to consider my words, and to research how our culture, and our society is destroying this planet, and murdering so much of creation...

Get Up, Stand Up - Still Waiting After 4 Decades

Get Up, Stand Up, stand up for your rights. Bob Marley wrote those lyrics exactly 4 decades ago. He spoke to sold out crowds about awareness, he spoke to his die hard fans about growing consciousness....4 decades ago...

I wonder if he knew that not much would have changed in 4 decades time. Get Up, Stand Up, stand up for your rights...how many of us actually do this? How many of you have complained about government corruption, high taxes, fluctuating gas prices, unnecessary laws and regulations, unjust treatment, etc, etc, etc? I’m POSITIVE that masses of people are aware of the injustice that plagues much of our planet...yet how many of those masses actually get up, and stand up, and stand up for their rights? My answer, too few...

International Women’s Day, a day for women to stand up and voice their Goddess given right to equality, and a freedom from violence, oppression and any form of domination or fear...but isn’t there more to it than that? The men of this race that we call human need to voice their support and make real changes!

How many of you men stood around while witnessing a woman being treated with disrespect? At a nightclub, in the workplace, on the train, in the street...how many of you can say that you have stood up for a woman? Tell me men, does this sound familiar “damn, that girl is smoking hot, I would bang the shit outta her!” while all the other douche bags stand around giving each other high fives and agreeing with this cavemanish comment. Have you ever stopped to think that this woman that you see as a piece of ass is someone's sister, someone's daughter, someone's cousin, and will one day be someone's mother? Do you not stop to think that maybe, if you stand up and say something like “Whoa there buddy, have respect! She is a woman, a human, someone’s daughter! How would you want your daughter to be treated?!!”  that the caveman that said this may stop and think twice before making such disrespectful and vulgar comments the next time?

You may think that my last point is weak, pointless. You may say to yourself “ there are worse things happening like beatings and rapes” but really, where do you think this lack of respect and care towards women starts? Think about it...stop it, before it starts....

How many of you men out there have used your status or your social standing to take advantage of a woman? How many men out there assume that a woman's role is to serve you? My answer, way too many....

I have had the unfortunate experience to have met men, many men, who pretend that they are something that they are not in order to attract women, and the moment the woman lets her guard down, the moment she decides that this person is safe, the man takes advantage, uses her, abuses her soul, and shoves her aside, looking for his next victim....these men need to be called out, lined up, deprogrammed and educated.


The boys who grew up into REAL men, respectable, compassionate, honourable, caring, strong men, need to stand up. Don’t be shy, don’t hold your tongue in fear of judgment from the douche bags. Don’t pretend to fit in with the cavemen. Speak out against the men who make our gender shameful. Act against any injustice you witness, whether it be in a nightclub, a gym, a bus, a train, on the street, at the grocery store, at the office....anywhere. Don’t be cowards, act, use your power, use your voice, use your witt, use your alchemy to transform their un-evolved thoughts. Show all the women out there that WE do exist, our gender has not totally given in to the conditioning and programming, their battle is not being fought alone!

Many of us are here, fighting the fight, spreading truth and awareness. Sometimes we get lucky, and we are able to awaken masses, but sometimes, just that one mind is all that matters. Many of us are here, the problem is, many are afraid to be judged, afraid to appear different, afraid to appear weak, and because of these fears, they do not step up.

I urge you, the men who have honour, the men who know what truth is, the man whose blood boils when he see’s a fellow woman or man being mistreated, the men who were raised by women, the men who appreciate the divinity of the feminine, the men who worship a woman for her strength and compassion...I urge you men....Get Up! Stand Up! Stand Up for THEIR RIGHTS!!!!!!!

With Passion
