Where does the blame lie!

To Whose Feet Do We Lay The Blame!

If necessary, let us consider:

1. I have not, nor have so many other Americans been very pro-active to end the un-necessary violence from weapons.

2. Our Government Officials have been bought off!

3. The Gun Lobby and Military Industrial Lobby has bought them off!

4. Guns are big business:
   a. They make lots of money 
   b. Retirement funds invest in such companies
   c. Many public employees benefit from such funds
   d. Most don't seem to notice or care from where the funds come.

5. The American Culture is a Culture of Violence:
    a.Peacemaker was the name of a Colt Revolver that "Won the        
    West."
    b. America has more deaths by guns per capita than any other          
    country in the world.
    c. We have been at War in one region or another for most of our 
    political existence! Strong Military Industrial Lobby!
    d. Great profits have come from such wars. Weapon and
    munition companies, The Pentagon, etc. all lobby for more 
    money and power. Congressman and other politicians are 
    bought off!
    
6. We all like our creature comforts and seem to be lost in our
    bubbles of complacency: Until some "senseless" act of violence
    wakes us up!
    a. few requirements about who gets what kinds of guns
    b. many adults and teens leave guns laying around without
    adequate protection from mentally ill or children.

Or, is it "senseless"?

I am reminded of the old saying: "Do as I say and not as I do!" Although we all know that we will model ourselves after behavior more than words. And, when we are traumatized (PTSD) what we tend to do is repeat the circumstances of the trauma so we can figure out how we could have lost our purity and innocence.

When our leaders commit violent acts against innocent citizens of other countries what makes us think that our own citizens won't create violent acts agains innocents in our own country? 

As above, so below. This adage holds true in organizations of all sizes; from families to countries.

Conclusion: We are all culpable. 

The question is; who will bring about the needed change, Government, Lobbies, Corporations or The People?

You guessed it: The People! There is no other option.

On the Threshold into The Age of Aquarius!

WINTER SOLSTICE: 2012

ON THE THRESHOLD INTO THE AGE OF AQUARIUS.

On the 21st our the sun will enter ( what ever that means) into the Sign of Aquarius. Every 26000 some years a new age occurs. We have been in the Piscean Age, with the Piscean attributes of divisiveness. So I discovered by attending to this youtube movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlfYHAV1i8w&list=LLH4_kSBHJBeZhiBob8lj0gA&feature=mh_lolz

And, the qualities of Aquarius? Namaste: The Divine Spark in me acknowledges the Divine Spark in you. No need for gurus, we are all divine and in this age we will be awakening to this Truth!

Very cool.

At 10:05, so the same video reports we will cross the equator of the Galactic Rift. And, that is the precise time in which we get the biggest blast from the Black Hole. What does this mean? Good question. The Mayan Elders I have watched, read, listened to say that this is when we (Gaia) get a tremendous down-loading of Spirituality. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8y0MR8KiY8&feature=g-hist and only a few will retain the information for more than a few minutes.

Maybe, but, we have never experienced, in the history of modern man, such an event. Perhaps a great number of us are more prepared to accept the Truths that will coming to us. 

This is an Age where amazing Spiritual awarenesses are being shared. The Law of Attraction:http://www.abraham-hicks.com/lawofattractionsource/index.php,

The Diamond Cutter, wisdom of the Diamond Sutra as shared by Geshe Roach: https://www.google.com/search?q=diamond+cutter&aq=f&oq=diamond+cutter&aqs=chrome.0.57j5j0l2.2604&sugexp=chrome,mod=19&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#hl=en&tbo=d&q=the+diamond+cutter+book&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAGOovnz8BQMDAx8HixKXfq6-gZlFTmWBUVJimKBtD8f2jbf6BVYFM0za5zd1EQBns5VTKwAAAA&sa=X&ei=ro3HUPTSC8ybjALcwYCwCg&ved=0CKUBEOkTMA8&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&fp=9e5a97ecf0eac3e8&bpcl=39918873&biw=1187&bih=661,

The Course of Miracles: http://acim.org/

The list could go on.

You, my faithful readers, can probably name at least three different sources of enlightened information coming our way.

From my own studies I have been able to "choose a better thought", "be kind anyway", exercise "gratitude" and "generosity" more and more.

So, the judgmental nature of my socialization has diminished. Trained to "diagnose" I have even learned to not indulge in that form of professional power-tripping.

No need!

As one who writes this blog and for those who read it you will know that what I am experiencing more and more is the Field of Love. Fear and Anxiety are becoming mere signals to pay attention. We needn't harm ourselves and others by such indulgences as "addiction to adrenaline".

Far more fun to enjoy people as they are, even when they are offensive. Not to enjoy the offense but to understand that everyone has their story and compassionately attending to their story, to "see" them, lets them become less attached to their own destructive thoughts, beliefs and actions. Witnessing allows for easier change.

And now, 12/21/12 at 10:05am comes upon us.

So, why am I celebrating on the 22nd and not on the 21st.

Two reasons:

       First, I want to be at home and able to "receive" more freely.

       Second, I wish to celebrate on the 22nd our having "stepped over the threshold" and; into The Age         of Aquarius!

Well, what if? What if this all just a bunch of crap? Could be yet I experience, as a sociologist, therapist and person, that when individuals share in beliefs the beliefs tend to be actualized.

Heh, noticed lately how many people are sharing wonderfully happy, inspiring, organizing, sharing and caring via the internet?

It is happening, isn't it?
