Iceland – An Equal Opportunity Democracy

As we assimilate the inevitable transformation in human consciousness we are always delighted to see the good news filter in. There are many intelligent sources we can look to for more information than the main stream press will deem news worthy. This article on Iceland, passed on to Robert, is one of them. Hooray for the good guys.

In Iceland, the people have made the government resign, the primary banks have been nationalized and it was decided not to pay the debt that these created with Great Britain and Holland due to their bad financial politics, and a public assembly has been created to rewrite the constitution. 

And all of this has been done in a peaceful way. A whole revolution against the powers that have created the current crisis. 

This is why there hasn’t been any publicity during the last two years: What would happen if the rest of the EU citizens took this as an example? What would happen if the US citizens took this as an example?

 This is a summary of the facts: 

2008. The main bank of the country is nationalized. The Krona, the currency of Iceland devaluates and the stock market stops. The country is in bankruptcy

2008. The citizens protest in front of parliament and manage to get new elections that make the resignation of the prime minister and his whole government.

The country is in bad economic situation. A law proposes paying back the debt to Great Britain and Holland through the payment of 3,500 million euros, which will be paid by the people of Iceland monthly during the next 15 years, with a 5.5% interest. 

2010. The people go out in the streets and demand a referendum. In January 2010 the president denies the approval and announces a popular meeting. 

In March the referendum and the denial of payment is voted in by 93%. Meanwhile the government has initiated an investigation to bring to justice those responsible for the crisis, and many high level executives and bankers are arrested. 

The Interpol dictates an order that make all the implicated parties leave the country. 

In this crisis an assembly is elected to rewrite a new Constitution which can include the lessons learned from this, and which will substitute the current one (a copy of the Danish Constitution). 25 citizens are chosen, with no political affiliation, out of the 522 candidates. For candidacy all that was needed was to be an adult and have the support of 30 people. 

The constitutional assembly starts in February of 2011 to present the ‘carta magna’ from the recommendations given by the different assemblies happening throughout the country. It must be approved by the current Parliament and by the one constituted through the next legislative elections. 

So in summary of the Icelandic revolution: – resignation of the whole government – nationalization of the bank. – referendum so that the people can decide over the economic decisions. – incarcerating the responsible parties – rewriting of the constitution by its people.

The Road We’ve Traveled

It has been my wish to bring inspiring and thought-provoking content to this blog. In the past I have been criticized by a few for drawing on political ideology and its position in this all evolving storm which drives us to greater heights and more heartfelt decision-making. We can’t discount the effect that politics has on our lives. We live in a world that is driven by politics, and no matter how hard we try to ignore it and just meditate our way to salvation, we cannot. A dream is not an illusion, it is a deep connection with our soul’s cry and our dream is to allow the great intelligence that abides in All-That-Is to do its work and let Conscious Evolution preside over our development.

I can’t hide the fact that I am a supporter of the Obama Vision, that is a more Service-To-Others way of life. This goes beyond the ego manner of our human ways and reaches for the glory that will be humankind in its next incarnation. It is not hard to see this, for we, as loving beings, need only sit in the seat of our heart for one moment to feel the power of love and the oneness that lies within us all.

For those of you who agree with this idea, that we are beings driven by our deeper nature of love and compassion, you will certainly be touched by this promotional video produced to ignite a new wave of hope and a second term for Barack Obama.

“Blockage” The Hindered Flow of Cooperation

It is almost always the case that when a body has some blockage in its flow of continuity there is a greater chance of the body failing and dying unless the blockage is removed. I find it amazing that the congressional leaders of this great nation do not understand this as well.  In fact with the amount of former doctors in the “House” you would think they would certainly get the point.

So here we are, about to enter a new age, an age of transformation and awareness; and the most inspired ideal on the planet, the one set forth by the founding fathers, is being mired by ignorance and self-serving. It’s interesting though that we elected a leader that is aligned, to the greatest extent, with progressive thinking (ideas not the party) and an awareness greater than the lawmakers presently seated. Perhaps this leader is ahead of his time and we just can’t quite get it together to catch up. Whatever the case may be the body is failing due to the plaque build up blocking the way to the heart of cooperation.

The most amusing part of this whole debacle is the alternative we are being handed by the latest pretenders to the throne. These new sightless visionaries are taking the hands of time and directing them in a retrograde motion. We all know what happens when Mercury, which represents the mind, slows down to a retrograde motion giving an illusion of backward movement. Everything goes haywire. Perhaps this is just another symptom of the Great Storm. And when the storm clouds clear we shall have brighter days.

Robert sent me this article on Obama’s Health Care Initiative and I would like to bring it to your attention as the clouds clear and the day brightens.

 

 

Cooperation and Appreciation

It is with great joy that appreciation has become part and parcel of this Communing landscape. It’s easier than we think to accept ourselves in a vision beyond our present state and feel the presence that the words in Letters brings to our imaginations.

I would like to offer to the community this email from Nancy and ask that we continue to keep the space that we created and expand its circle wider and wider.

 

Dear Stefan, Robert and everyone at the wonderful day at Judy Welder’s Farm in November.

I want to share how truly special our time together felt for me, that I revisit some of each of our visions that day and that simply everything I’ve been doing each day since then has been with thoughts of moving toward Roberts vision in the sense of,

“What can I do today that will move us toward that time of cooperative and appreciative living?”

You ALL, not that I haven’t been working with the intuitive families and the plant kingdom that way for years already, BUT Robert, something …SOMEthing in what you have intuited, and the way it is written and formatted… is just so uplifting and encouraging.

I haven’t even had time to read half of the first book yet, partly because it’s the first book in ages that I can’t get 2 sentences without stopping to envision or spontaneously “fall” into meditation.

I may have mentioned on that Sunday the day after, that I had already perceived that your book might be the perfect educational tool for the new children of today and that I have been looking for something with as much depth as the SETH material by Jane Roberts, but far more ACCESSIBLE to a younger generation.   I believe I’ve found it! I’m gonna start recommending it to every family I can.

Many blessings and happy holidays all, and much appreciation of our intercommunicating time together. Hope I get to visit with you all again,

Our First Community Gathering

Over this weekend, on Sunday the 6th to be exact, we had our first gathering in Marshall, North Carolina, just outside of Asheville. In one of the sweetest spots on earth, nestled among two glorious mountain sides, we gathered to celebrate the messages sent to us from our future selves.

At times I feel that the timeline of past, present and future are no longer linear, but they are happening all at once. Because we live in a multi-dimensional universe our essences are moving through the space of past, present and future simultaneously and this allows us to connect and dialogue with our soul’s essence at every moment.

The gathering included those who have read the book and those who were interested in learning more about it. It is wonderful to see different generations represented in this gathering and everyone came to open more areas of awakening within themselves.

Robert allowed the “Muses” to direct the flow of the day and the creative spark bounced around the space with unconditional aliveness. It is of note how much respect each of the attendees gave to the material and to each other’s offerings.

I am still gathering information in my self about the experience and will expand upon it in future posts, but for now I want to honor those who attended and thank them for their awakened consciousness and their continued alignment.

Below is a photo of the group and thanks to Debbie Woodruff’s timed shutter release camera we were able to include all who attended.

Ecoluxe Mag and Potter

In the latest issue of Ecoluxe Magazine editor Shannon Dunn did a wonderful interview with Robert and began a new chapter in the life of “Letters.” Now a wider audience can appreciate the new wave of consciousness headed our way.

Editorializing “Letters from 500″ is not an easy task, and yet the give and take between Shannon and Robert seems so natural. It is obvious that Shannon Dunn not only did her homework but is a fan of the book as well. Her questions are short and concise, yet seem to open doors of information for  both the new reader and dedicated followers of the book. This is the first chance for Robert to elucidate the flow of consciousness that has brought this book to bare and try to make clear the direction we are headed based on his dialogues with “O” and his own inner thoughts.

So, thank you Shannon for the space and time you have given the book. And to the readers of this blog, if you want to see how eco concerns look from down under, with a flair of chic, check out Ecoluxe Magazine online.

“Letters” Travels Down Under

As the circle  of resonance grows around the book it is strangely taking on a life miles from home. Through our dear New Zealand friend Shannon Dunn it has made its way west and north to Australia and into the hands of psychic  Rebecca Dettman.

“Psyched in Stilettos” is the nom de plume of this clear headed spiritual adviser with the clouds over her head instead of her head in them. Her website RebeccaDettman.com is a refreshing departure from the almost still hokus pokus realms of American and European followers of the new age banner. It brings a fresh look into the everyday needs of our spiritually overgrown society and puts “practical” back into the crystal ball mindset. She tells it like it is and not what you necessarily want to hear. Read her article on Eat, Pray, Love as an example.

For those of you who want the reality of this modern esoteric world, wrapped up in beautiful visuals and served with common-sense advice,  RebeccaDettman.com is what you are looking for.

If you would like to feel a closer connection to Rebecca you can visit this YouTube interview with reporter Zoe Sheridan.

The Grass Roots of the Spiritual Movement

Last night I attended a workshop at the Sages Pages Bookstore in Madison, NJ. At first glance you think this is just another community book seller with the usual titles. Not so fast. Down the stairs, to the right and left and all around, is an abundance of mystical charms that will move any soulful aspirant to a mood of heightened Samadhi. The vibration alone is enough to open your Third Eye and give you glances of a world beyond 3D. Lillian, the joyous shop owner, is ready for any question on any subject. Her wit and upbeat demeanor is a welcome addition, in a world filled with cold shoulders and disinterested retailers.

This evening’s attraction is a wonderful monthly workshop and meditation with Ilona Anne Hress. Ilona is a healer. She heals beyond the needs of the body. She heals through the nuances of the spirit. Her approach is filled with laughter, inquisitiveness, application and sound. She makes light, she reads, she teaches and she sings. By the time the evening has ended you are in another world. You feel one with Peace and Light and Cosmic Fairy Dust. As I write this post I can say I am still reeling from the effects. I would recommend that any and all participate in Ilona’s world and she can be contacted through her website growingconsciousness.com

So this is it. This is where it all begins. Not in the star laden hierarchy of the spiritual gurus or the new age wannabees. No this is a grass roots movement that is taking it’s energy from the sincere, awakened souls, that populate the hills and dales of our vast planet. The Dick and Jane crowd. This is where the movement is taking shape and this is where the movement is going to evolve. I pray that you realize, each one of you, that your addition to this movement is as important as any team that needs all of it’s players to win. The future holds magical things for humanity. It is not the apocalyptic vision that some of society imagine. That is only their ego’s fear that paints that picture. No, this is a world that has been envisioned in all the great minds and hearts of those who have brought Knowing to this realm of humankind. Krishna, Buddha, Christ – they all knew and tried to tell us. And we have laid dumb to their words. But change has come in our time and we are in the midst of a great shift. This shift is so great that in generations to come we won’t even recognize the beings we are now. It is a time of celebrations – through the very muck and mire of the ignorance that stands in our way – we move ahead. Strong in our knowing of what will come next, a life of Peace and Oneness and Appreciation of all that the Source, through Conscious Evolution, is giving us.

This is a great beginning people. Don’t be fooled by the tumultuous happenings of the moment. Remember, it is always darkest just before the dawn.
