			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">The world is full of it&#8230;</p>
<p align="justify">of anger,</p>
<p align="justify">anger is the rage and shame of having no power</p>
<p align="justify">anger too can take you to a place of change when it is truly right to be angry</p>
<p align="justify">but anger though is impulse, it is not a destination for each of us needs to</p>
<p align="justify">go beyond it, to leave its power behind and embrace the power of Love</p>
<p align="justify">anger seeks its own demise, its own transformation but can lose</p>
<p align="justify">its way to healing</p>
<p align="justify">look to the anger within you, see how it moulds your life</p>
<p align="justify">and how the anger of others influences your state of being ,</p>
<p align="justify">anger can be glamourous, even kind, anger can be generous and also blind</p>
<p align="justify">anger seeks its own destruction and understanding</p>
<p align="justify">it is the light of extreme dissatisfaction and the voice of fear</p>

<p align="center"> ONE:</p>
<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
<p align="justify"> <font color="#000080">Wisdom has a sadness of its own, pensive like a cello playing in a soft snow fall</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font color="#000080">Compassion holds a knowingness that looks into all things with an unblinking eye</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font color="#000080">Anger seeks to include everyone in its rage of ignorance and self-defeat,</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font color="#000080">Greed seeks solace in having all it can to bury the  oncoming fear</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font color="#000080">Lust craves a chance at halting mortality and believes in the tempoary as real</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font color="#000080">Illumination lights only what needs to be illuminated for the awakening of the Self happens in the dark</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font color="#000080">Loss and learning go together, and love and liberation are good friends.</font></p>
<p align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p align="center">TWO:</p>
<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
<p align="right"><font color="#800000">Love was within us before we came and went, love was in the first cosmic form</font><br />
<font color="#800000">and fell in the first rainfall, love was within us and will be when we forget that we once dwelt</font><br />
<font color="#800000">upon the Earth, love was within the first rising spark of Wisdom and the clear sight of Compassion</font><br />
<font color="#800000">and Love took the journey willingly into the dark matter and confusion of the temporal world in order</font><br />
<font color="#800000">to evolve back to its own recognition again.</font></p>
<p align="center"> THREE:</p>
<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
<p align="center"><font color="#000080">The human race is a pathway in which Love plies its course, </font><br />
<font color="#000080">a river that flows through time and space</font><br />
<font color="#000080">creating diversity and matter, consciousness and place, </font><br />
<font color="#000080">perception and awakening and the nature of living light</font><br />
<font color="#000080">Love has made the chance for Life </font><br />
<font color="#000080">when it embraced itself openly with Light,</font></p>
<p align="center">
<font color="#000080">for Love and Life make Light and from that all things are:</font></p>
<p align="center">
<font color="#000080">for in Light, Consciousness takes form </font></p>
<p align="center"><font color="#000080">shrouding Love&#8217;s constant breath </font><br />
<font color="#000080">and in that come  the two eternal seasons, mortal life and mortal death </font><br />
<font color="#000080">two great teachings of  Love and Light </font><br />
<font color="#000080">by which the Cosmos and Consciousness descend and create form</font><br />
<font color="#800000"> </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font color="#800000"> </font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever thought to yourself or heard someone say,</p>
<p>&#8221; I thought I dealt with this!</p>
<p>I thought it was over and done with!</p>
<p>why did it take so long to deal with it..why Now?</p>
<p>I have wasted all the years, why couldn&#8217;t I have dealt with this years ago?&#8217;</p>
<p>Because change takes time, like true love, it takes the understanding of time</p>
<p>and the acceptance that change only comes when you are ready..</p>
<p>and often we may think we are ready, but deep within we are not</p>
<p>Change takes time, and time can only be a helper if you see time as agent of change</p>
<p>Time goes in cycles , not in a straight line..</p>
<p>Change goes in cycles, not in a straight line..</p>
<p>There are no straight lines within the growing psyche,</p>
<p>in the inner expression of spiritual change there always is to be found a cycle</p>
<p>of change and time, like two different coloured flowers on one slender plant</p>
<p>Time needs change to give meaning to humanity</p>
<p>and Change needs Time to grow and mature</p>
<p>We are all children of time and change</p>
<p>They are two of  twelve great mysteries that give humanity the impulse of evolution.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What will You do when you can not put gas into your car?</p>
<p>What will You do when you can not buy your food at the supermarket?</p>
<p>What will you do if you can not find any water clean enough to drink?</p>
<p>What will you do when the lights go out?</p>
<p>What will you do if your software fails?</p>
<p>What will you do if all that you know suddenly falls apart?</p>
<p>What will you do?</p>
<p>What will you do when the rain fall burns your skin?</p>
<p>What will you do when the rain stops falling?</p>
<p>What will you do when the rain pours down day and night ?</p>
<p>What will you do when the last glacier evaporates?</p>
<p>What will you do when all the knowhow of all that you take for granted is meaningless and cannot save you?</p>
<p>What will you do?</p>
<p>Stand in the light of your own being and try not to be afraid, that is what you can do</p>
<p>When the Zoo gets raided for the meat in the cages what will you do?</p>
<p>When everyone around you is in despair what will you do?</p>
<p>Stand in the light of your being and try not to be afraid, that&#8217;s what you can do ..</p>
<p>Start now and learn how to know what to do,</p>
<p>Stand in the light of your being and try not to be afraid</p>
<p>Trust the cycle of spiritual unfoldment in the world</p>
<p>This is the sad time of the World versus the Earth, when  there needs to be no competition</p>
<p>When the Earth asks you, and that day will come, what did you do? What will your answer be?</p>
<p>The World has no answer and no question. That is why many do not know what to do.</p>
<p>There are two species of humanity, one dwells within The World</p>
<p>The other dwells with the Earth..the choice is , what will you do?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>People often wonder&#8230; what is Karma?</p>
<p>Karma is any intentional process, a thought, action, word or gesture or combination of all that is done with intent and focus. This the primary impulse of Karma. It does not matter whether the intent is positive or negative.  Because such activity creates many patterns that replicate themselves beyond measurement, we all are linked in a karmic fish net, that trawls the bottom of our unconscious karmic ocean.</p>
<p>If we wish to change patterns in our life, we need to understand what prompts our thoughts, actions, words and gestures, and what are the drives behind our intentions and focus. We can change karmic patterns by changing the nature of our intentions to the world, our inner world, outer world and to all people and other living creatures.</p>
<p>People often wonder &#8230;what  is Rebirth, thinking it the same as Reincarnation.</p>
<p>Rebirth is the process of suddenly been born as soon as you are dead without any understanding or control over the emotional, psychological and spiritual aspects of dying. If you lived a confused life and died with confusion, fear or any other overwhelming emotion that caused you to feel trapped,then it can be that you will be born immediately, as there are endless wombs waiting to be filled with life.</p>
<p>Rebirth is sudden and without understanding, it is a rush an endless flow and pattern. But you can rise out of that pattern by learning how to become conscious and more aware of your inner state so it does not sabotage your mental state as you die. This leads us to Reincarnation.</p>
<p>People often wonder&#8230; what Reincarnation is&#8230;</p>
<p>Reincarnation is the conscious application of mental , emotional and spiritual insight to yourself as you die, thus clearing away all the inner fears and projections that emanate around you as you die. You create a choice within you as to how you shall be, you enter into a dimension of choices. And when you know it is right, you have an element of choice over how, when and to whom you will be born.</p>
<p>In the death process if you enter into the state of clarity, you can redeem yourself, heal all your regrets, learn as to the whys and hows of your karmic legacy and inheritance and transform yourself.</p>
<p>Death is the great equalizer but in that you have choice and intention and focus.   Whatever you have done, you can heal in the process of death, and stay in the dimensions between the former life and the possibility of a new one, to enhance your inner evolution and well being.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bliss and Boredom, silence and noise,</p>
<p>calm and rush, silence and noise, clamour and quietude, dark and light,</p>
<p>to have and not to have,</p>
<p>these are the questions that are asked deep within our everyday selves and we are not normally conscious of the asking. Until, one, some or all of them come rushing out in a surprise guerilla assault of our fragile sense of self. These fuel most people&#8217;s search for meaning, comfort and stability.</p>
<p>But they are heat waves that come from the energy our everyday mind when it tries to make sense of our lives, selves and the world.</p>
<p>To move beyond becoming influenced by the rise and fall of all of these, we need to understand that we can let go of trying to make sense of it, and allow the natural sense to make sense of us.</p>
<p>Yes, we need to let go of the searching when fueled by all of these things that I have listed and allow the natural sense within us to show us that there is no search.</p>
<p>Because  you are the  journey and the destination and you have already arrived, it is just, that at some point in your journey through Life, you forgot. Its like meeting someone from years ago, and you can&#8217;t quite place their face or name, but you know that you know them from somewhere.</p>
<p>The natural sense within can show you that beneath the thrum of all of these experiences that I mentioned earlier is a great simplicity, and it is constant and yet as you experience it, it is renewed and so are you.</p>
<p>There will be no more bliss or boredom, but contentment and a knowing of the great laugh that resounds in the universe, and you will taste joy in everything and everyone.</p>
<p>Beyond Bliss, beyond boredom, you will find yourself and like a long lost lover rush to embrace yourself in the experience of the ever constant divine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Power is often confused with force, and force is regarded as strength, and in many worldly situations that is true and appropriate when needed.</p>
<p>However, true power in all its forms  stems from the relationship a person has with their inner power, and the greatest power is the knowing of when to act, when to not, to be aware of the time of things, for all things have their own time.</p>
<p>The greatest power comes from living in accord with your authentic emotional and spiritual state which can not be defined by anyone other than you and the eternal Self that takes on the material identity that you regard as your personality, day by day. Power comes not from things but from being.</p>
<p>When power is applied it not longer becomes power but another quality of action and intent.</p>
<p>You are potentially more powerful than any man made force or natural cycle or cosmic event or body, you are the summation of a thousand million universes, countless aeons of conscious journeying through many life forms, you are the great navigator and commander of  the most profound power of all..the continuity of Consciousness  which is the energy that all power is derived from.</p>
<p>Power takes on a conscious form when applied that is why as your inner self grows and matures it becomes powerful, not in ego or desire but in accordance with the cycle of things, there are many on this planet who have power but are not mature, their power comes from the intent of despair and ego, fear and the desire for safety from their inner knowledge that their power will fade thus bringing the fear of mortality.</p>
<p>This relationship to power comes from the fear of change and the misunderstanding of who we are as human beings in the natural and universal world.</p>
<p>We are immensely powerful, we are learning to be immensely responsible, but we can come to that by awakening the immense compassion that lies within us. If one person in the millions on this planet was truly compassionate but for a moment, all us would change our relationship to power and no one would seek it for artificial means.</p>
<p>The power that all people, all beings respond to and understand wordlessly is the frequency of love , in this material world it is the greatest and most enduring of all forms of power. Is is the one we as individuals and as a species run from but it is the hidden impulse in our evolution.</p>
