&lt;/font&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;In this message we wish to give you some specifics regarding
&lt;br&gt;the financial and earth changes that are now upon you. We had
&lt;br&gt;hinted at the probability of this in previous planetary
&lt;br&gt;messages, but now the probabilities have become realities.
&lt;br&gt;The main focus of our intent for this communication appears
&lt;br&gt;toward the end when we will share what we feel you can do,
&lt;br&gt;individually, to ride the storm.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;The Current Financial Crisis
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Those who have created/sustained the dominant planetary
&lt;br&gt;economic system are now finding themselves with their "backs
&lt;br&gt;against the wall." This is because the system, as it exists,
&lt;br&gt;is not self-sustaining. It is a form of imprisonment and is
&lt;br&gt;not in attunement with the shifting frequencies of
&lt;br&gt;consciousness that are taking place (albeit embryonically) on
&lt;br&gt;earth. And so financial institutions are attempting to
&lt;br&gt;re-organize themselves. But this is an attempt to perpetuate
&lt;br&gt;that which cannot be sustained. They are simply trying to
&lt;br&gt;re-arrange cards in the House of Cards.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;But their attempts will ultimately be futile. This is because
&lt;br&gt;the current economic system is based upon greed, lies,
&lt;br&gt;control, and manipulation, and these thought forms, these
&lt;br&gt;cultural paradigms, are not in alignment with the new
&lt;br&gt;consciousness that is arising. What you are witnessing is the
&lt;br&gt;dissolution of that which needs to pass away, but that which
&lt;br&gt;will take its place has not arisen, and so it is a very
&lt;br&gt;frightening passage for those marooned in 3Dimensional
&lt;br&gt;reality.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;The financial situation is complex and interconnected. The
&lt;br&gt;difficulties currently experienced in both the United States
&lt;br&gt;and England will affect the entire global economy. These will
&lt;br&gt;be difficult times in terms of monetary considerations, but
&lt;br&gt;paradoxically these can be extraordinarily uplifting times
&lt;br&gt;spiritually.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;We anticipate further deterioration of the financial markets
&lt;br&gt;in the United States, Europe and Asia. The corporate
&lt;br&gt;structures responsible for perpetuating the dominant economic
&lt;br&gt;paradigms will find themselves on very flimsy ground. This
&lt;br&gt;will unquestionably result in the loss of jobs, real income,
&lt;br&gt;and an increase of suffering for individuals. Our advice is
&lt;br&gt;get to know your community, your immediate surrounding
&lt;br&gt;community, because as the system implodes, it will be local
&lt;br&gt;relationships that matter.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Another element that makes this period particularly volatile
&lt;br&gt;is that your perception of time is changing. Culturally
&lt;br&gt;perceived time is speeding up and more seems to be happening
&lt;br&gt;in less time. This is occurring both for individuals and for
&lt;br&gt;the culture as a whole. This rapid movement and changing of
&lt;br&gt;events shall become faster and faster.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;You are entering a relentless pace in which your perception
&lt;br&gt;of time will increasingly accelerate. Because your perception
&lt;br&gt;of time is speeding up, and the events within those
&lt;br&gt;time-frames are increasing in number, many will enter a kind
&lt;br&gt;of shock, a state of disbelief. Specifically, it is
&lt;br&gt;unimaginable that the economic system can deteriorate so
&lt;br&gt;rapidly! What do you do when money is scarce and the things
&lt;br&gt;you are used to in your life are hard to acquire? These are
&lt;br&gt;critical questions.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Collective humanity is at a pivotal point for it is at the
&lt;br&gt;cusp of new cultural paradigms&amp;#8212;a shifting from fixation on
&lt;br&gt;3Dimensional reality into a realization of higher dimensions
&lt;br&gt;and the possibilities that will be open to all as a result.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;While such a shift of cultural awareness sounds inviting, the
&lt;br&gt;actual process is extremely chaotic, which is what you are
&lt;br&gt;now in the midst of.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Factors of Novelty
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;As chaos increases, over the next several years, you can
&lt;br&gt;expect to see radical increases in what could be described as
&lt;br&gt;factors of novelty. By novelty, we are referring to a concept
&lt;br&gt;borrowed from your physics. We are not using the term as it
&lt;br&gt;is used in your mainstream culture, which is essentially the
&lt;br&gt;mindless pursuit of that which is new and different to fill
&lt;br&gt;in the void created by emotional desperation and emptiness.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Novelty, as we are using the term, refers to unintentional
&lt;br&gt;and unanticipated changes within a system. These changes can
&lt;br&gt;be positive, negative or both.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;The term, factors of novelty, refers to the phenomenon that
&lt;br&gt;incidents of novelty exponentially increase as systems enter
&lt;br&gt;into a state of chaos. And the probability for chaos
&lt;br&gt;increases when you have many different systems interacting at
&lt;br&gt;accelerated rates. Unexpected results and situations, that
&lt;br&gt;were never anticipated or intended, can and will arise. As
&lt;br&gt;novelty increases worldwide, it will create mental and
&lt;br&gt;emotional strain for many individuals&amp;#8212;primarily due to the
&lt;br&gt;fact that the paradigms that they have used to navigate
&lt;br&gt;through life will be (and are) dissolving right before them.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;As difficult as these times are, and as difficult as they
&lt;br&gt;will be in the near future, there is an evolutionary catalyst
&lt;br&gt;within all of this.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;New ways of thinking and new ways of generating resources
&lt;br&gt;have to be created if humanity is to survive. The old ways
&lt;br&gt;simply cannot continue. This is because they are not
&lt;br&gt;self-sustaining; they are intrinsically damaging to life;
&lt;br&gt;they are based upon lies and manipulation, and they are out
&lt;br&gt;of alignment with the new spiritual energies that are
&lt;br&gt;entering the scene. Nevertheless, those who have created and
&lt;br&gt;sustained the lies are doing everything in their power to
&lt;br&gt;keep the House of Cards intact.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Your evolutionary opportunity in all of this is to pass
&lt;br&gt;through the storm by living (metaphorically speaking) in the
&lt;br&gt;center of the hurricane&amp;#8212;the eye of the storm&amp;#8212;where it is
&lt;br&gt;calm. We will offer some suggestions for this in a moment,
&lt;br&gt;but let us turn our attention to the Earth Changes, for they
&lt;br&gt;are upon you.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;In previous communications we said that the melting of the
&lt;br&gt;polar icecaps and the glaciers would accelerate faster than
&lt;br&gt;scientists anticipated, and indeed, this is the case. This
&lt;br&gt;shall continue to accelerate and the models of weather
&lt;br&gt;generated by computers will not accurately predict the
&lt;br&gt;changes. Like everything else upon your earth, all changes
&lt;br&gt;shall accelerate. From our perspective we see an increase in
&lt;br&gt;the intensity of hurricanes, and we see them arising in times
&lt;br&gt;when they do not traditionally occur. There will be an
&lt;br&gt;increase in tornados and aberrant weather. Alterations in the
&lt;br&gt;cycle of the seasons (where fall and winter patterns occur in
&lt;br&gt;spring and summer and vice versa) will continue to escalate.
&lt;br&gt;Plants and animals that have based their life rhythms upon
&lt;br&gt;these seasons shall be increasingly confused. Due to these
&lt;br&gt;and other climatic changes (as well as earthquake and
&lt;br&gt;volcanic activity), we anticipate increasing food and water
&lt;br&gt;shortages over the next two decades.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Another critical element in this evolutionary stew is the
&lt;br&gt;upcoming Presidential elections in the US. For better or
&lt;br&gt;worse this Office affects not just the United States, but
&lt;br&gt;also the entire world, and while there are differences
&lt;br&gt;between the two camps, in some fundamental areas they are the
&lt;br&gt;same. Those who pursue the Office (from within the ranks of
&lt;br&gt;the two major political parties) may indeed have their
&lt;br&gt;personal visions of what America and the world can be, but
&lt;br&gt;they are like pawns on a chessboard, and the ones who move
&lt;br&gt;the pawns are largely unseen. Unfortunately, their agenda is
&lt;br&gt;not the health and well-being of the United States, nor of the
&lt;br&gt;world. Their agenda is the consolidation of power. And the
&lt;br&gt;confinement and imprisonment of the human spirit that results
&lt;br&gt;from their blind pursuit of earthly power does not concern
&lt;br&gt;them.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;An unprecedented collision of forces is now upon you. The
&lt;br&gt;economic and political situations, conjoined with earth
&lt;br&gt;changes are creating a crack in the facade. This facade is
&lt;br&gt;nothing less than the cultural, economic, political, and
&lt;br&gt;religious illusions and delusions that people have "bought
&lt;br&gt;into." More and more individuals will see through the lies,
&lt;br&gt;simply because things will fall apart. The curtains that were
&lt;br&gt;hiding the lies will fall. This is not a graceful process.
&lt;br&gt;But the old ways of being and doing must come to an end, in
&lt;br&gt;order that new ways can take root.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;It shall be increasingly difficult to perpetuate the old
&lt;br&gt;world in the same ways it has been perpetuated. And by this
&lt;br&gt;we mean both the old world of your civilization and the old
&lt;br&gt;world of your own personal lives. As the wave of spiritual
&lt;br&gt;evolution accelerates, those who insist upon living in the
&lt;br&gt;old paradigms will find it increasingly difficult. Fear and
&lt;br&gt;paranoia will be the tone of the day, from the minutest
&lt;br&gt;aspects of personal life to international relations. This
&lt;br&gt;"tug of war" between that which wishes to remain locked in
&lt;br&gt;place, tugging against those forces that wish to open the
&lt;br&gt;world to new possibilities shall indeed become a surrealistic
&lt;br&gt;experience.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;The evolutionary pressures upon individuals and society are
&lt;br&gt;extraordinary, and those individuals who are less centered
&lt;br&gt;(psychologically imbalanced) may experience an increase in
&lt;br&gt;irrational behaviors. Many countries around the world are
&lt;br&gt;already seeing a rise in irrational acts and unusual crimes.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Escape Velocity
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;We have spoken about it on numerous occasions, and although
&lt;br&gt;it is very simple, it is a powerful ally. Your word for it is
&lt;br&gt;appreciation and what we mean by this is the ability to
&lt;br&gt;appreciate the smallest things in your life as well as the
&lt;br&gt;large things.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Appreciation is a fascinating vibrational field with multiple
&lt;br&gt;effects. As you watch your economic system go through its
&lt;br&gt;metamorphosis, as you watch earth changes increasing and the
&lt;br&gt;stresses upon those around you escalating, including the
&lt;br&gt;escalation of stress on yourself, remember the doorway of
&lt;br&gt;appreciation. All you have to do is step into this field and
&lt;br&gt;the disturbances around you will be less able to effect you
&lt;br&gt;negatively. The situations you are dealing with might not
&lt;br&gt;change, but your emotional response to them will be of a
&lt;br&gt;higher order. And you will be more resourceful in how you
&lt;br&gt;deal with the challenges you are facing.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Were we to describe, in detail, the probable future in terms
&lt;br&gt;of negative events, it would be overwhelming. That is not our
&lt;br&gt;intent, and so we will not discuss it. What we wish to
&lt;br&gt;discuss is escape velocity. How do you escape the negative,
&lt;br&gt;imprisoning forces that continue to confine you and the human
&lt;br&gt;spirit? The most efficient and simple way is to cultivate
&lt;br&gt;appreciation&amp;#8212;as ridiculous as that may sound in the face of
&lt;br&gt;the immense challenges facing your earth. Appreciation is a
&lt;br&gt;key that will unlock the doorway to the new world, even as
&lt;br&gt;the old world dissolves and falls apart, as it must.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;As the spiritually driven evolutionary forces increase, and
&lt;br&gt;the rip in the fabric of your civilization becomes clear to
&lt;br&gt;more and more individuals, there will be a tendency for those
&lt;br&gt;who are fixated on 3Dimensional reality (without access to
&lt;br&gt;the higher dimensions of themselves) to enter into a state of
&lt;br&gt;mental and emotional shock, a kind of numbness. You can
&lt;br&gt;recognize these numb people because they will walk and talk
&lt;br&gt;like normal, but they are like zombies, half aware, half
&lt;br&gt;alive. Have compassion for these individuals because they are
&lt;br&gt;caught between the old world that is passing away and an
&lt;br&gt;uncertain future that has yet to be born. Have compassion,
&lt;br&gt;yet be wary of them. Do not let them seduce you into their
&lt;br&gt;numbness and fear.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;If you learn to live in appreciation, you will enter a
&lt;br&gt;domain, a vibration that will carry you through the chaos of
&lt;br&gt;these times. You will find a type of solace and comfort, and
&lt;br&gt;the vibrational rate of your energy body will increase. At
&lt;br&gt;some point you will reach what we call escape velocity. You
&lt;br&gt;will easily step out of the illusions and the lies of the old
&lt;br&gt;world. You will see them for what they are, and you will
&lt;br&gt;become a joyous co-creator of a new world that is being
&lt;br&gt;birthed even as the old world passes away right before your
&lt;br&gt;eyes.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;The Hathors through Tom Kenyon
&lt;br&gt;September 22, 2008 Orcas Island, WA
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Thoughts and Observations from the channel, Tom Kenyon
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;When the Hathors gave me this particular planetary message
&lt;br&gt;there was no hint that the Wall Street fiasco was coming. At
&lt;br&gt;least I hadn't heard about it, let's say that.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;I am amazed at how quickly things are changing and I have to
&lt;br&gt;acknowledge that the Hathors were bang on (once again).
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;When I was in the eighth grade, my algebra teacher would
&lt;br&gt;always introduce a new section of the curriculum with a
&lt;br&gt;slight grin on her face. She would look down at the book and
&lt;br&gt;then up at the class with these words&amp;#8212;"it's going to get
&lt;br&gt;worser before it gets better."
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;I think that's what the Hathors are saying here as well. We
&lt;br&gt;are all in for a heck of a ride. But the strange thing about
&lt;br&gt;collective mayhem is that there are always islands of sanity,
&lt;br&gt;solace and comfort. I agree with them that we must find this
&lt;br&gt;within ourselves, and I agree with them that it is probably a
&lt;br&gt;good idea for us to get to know our neighbors.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;As usual, the Hathors emphasize the importance of
&lt;br&gt;appreciation. They say at one point that we need to cultivate
&lt;br&gt;appreciation for the small things in life, not just the big.
&lt;br&gt;And as they have said previously, we need to learn how to
&lt;br&gt;create this feeling in the moment without having a specific
&lt;br&gt;reason to be happy.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;That may seem odd to some, choosing to experience
&lt;br&gt;appreciation when nothing has happened to make us feel that
&lt;br&gt;way. But essentially what the Hathors are saying is that
&lt;br&gt;appreciation is a specific vibration of consciousness and
&lt;br&gt;when we are in that vibration we are elevated. And I suspect
&lt;br&gt;that such skills as self-elevation (when many around us are
&lt;br&gt;in distress) will be an excellent skill to have.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Like all skill building, repetition and actually doing it (in
&lt;br&gt;this case, entering into appreciation) is the key. If you are
&lt;br&gt;new to these Hathor messages, I encourage you to go to the
&lt;br&gt;Archives and take a look at their postings regarding Ecstasy
&lt;br&gt;and the Heart. It is a very interesting and beneficial way of
&lt;br&gt;experimenting with the state of appreciation.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;And although they do not mention it in this message, you
&lt;br&gt;would find their messages about the Holon of Balance and the
&lt;br&gt;Holon of Healing helpful. Descriptions of how to create
&lt;br&gt;Holons also appear in the Archives.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tomkenyon.com/managing-subtle-energy-during-earth-changes/" target="_blank"&gt;http://tomkenyon.com/managing-subtle-energy-during-earth-changes/&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;As many of you no doubt know, the Chinese word for
&lt;br&gt;transformation consists of two ideograms that translate
&lt;br&gt;as&amp;#8212;danger and opportunity. There is no question that we are
&lt;br&gt;entering into dangerous times. But there are opportunities as
&lt;br&gt;well.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;The evolutionary question is: will you, me, and we (the great
&lt;br&gt;collective) find the opportunities to create a new future for
&lt;br&gt;ourselves? Or will we get quagmired in the old world of
&lt;br&gt;perception and belief?
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;If the Hathors are right about this, and I think they are, we
&lt;br&gt;would all do well to cultivate more appreciation. Then
&lt;br&gt;perhaps, we will self-elevate enough to recognize that we
&lt;br&gt;live in an amazing universe brimming with possibilities even
&lt;br&gt;as those of us in the old world struggle with how to enter
&lt;br&gt;the new.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Tom Kenyon Orcas, Washington
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;Note: The focus of the Hathors in the upcoming Stairway of
&lt;br&gt;Illumination Intensive in Seattle will be on the infusion of
&lt;br&gt;spiritual light into the seven major endocrine glands. The
&lt;br&gt;Hathors consider the infusion of light into the endocrine
&lt;br&gt;glands a crucial step in the process of personal ascension.
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333"&gt;This is the only Tom Kenyon/Hathor event this year, and it

Not only do I know this from my own guidance, but there are are many other signs and words. For example, witness this last paragraph from the latest Karen Bishop newsletter:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;p style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"&gt;&lt;font color="#993300"&gt;"We
no longer need to carry the planet or to carry anyone who resides upon
her. We are free. We can now leave all of that role and reality behind.
It is over. We need not suffer now. We need not feel or experience the
pain of others who are in a very different space. We are free and
clear, and we can go now&amp;#8230;..go to our place in Heaven on Earth where we
will hold the space for others to arrive when they are ready and
willing to come where we are. And the energies of late and of the near
future will support us in creating and arriving in our very new spaces. ww&lt;/font&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.whatsuponplanetearth.com/latest.htm" target="_new"&gt;w.whatsuponplanetearth.com"&lt;a href="http://photo.xanga.com/kuanyin33/12a12205606514/photo.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://x12.xanga.com/a12c63e456130205606514/z159843830.jpg" style="border-width: 0px;" alt="kuanyin 5" height="360"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

I've known practioners of Ho'oponopono, and what they see and do is simply amazing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;HO'OPONOPONO&lt;br&gt;
by Joe Vitale&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a&lt;br&gt;
complete ward of criminally insane patients--without ever seeing any&lt;br&gt;
of them. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then look&lt;br&gt;
within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he&lt;br&gt;
improved himself, the patient improved.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"When I first heard this story, I thought it was an urban legend. How&lt;br&gt;
could anyone heal anyone else by healing himself? How could even the&lt;br&gt;
best self-improvement master cure the criminally insane? It didn't&lt;br&gt;
make any sense. It wasn't logical, so I dismissed the story.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"However, I heard it again a year later. I heard that the therapist&lt;br&gt;
had used a Hawaiian healing process called ho 'oponopono. I had never
heard of it, yet I couldn't let it leave my mind. If the story was at&lt;br&gt;
all true, I had to know more. I had always understood "total&lt;br&gt;
responsibility" to mean that I am responsible for what I think and do.&lt;br&gt;
Beyond that, it's out of my hands. I think that most people think of total&lt;br&gt;
responsibility that way. We're responsible for what we do, not what&lt;br&gt;
anyone else does--but that's wrong.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"The Hawaiian therapist who healed those mentally ill people would&lt;br&gt;
teach me an advanced new perspective about total responsibility. His&lt;br&gt;
name is Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len. We probably spent an hour talking on&lt;br&gt;
our first phone call. I asked him to tell me the complete story of his&lt;br&gt;
work as a therapist.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
He explained that he worked at Hawaii State Hospital for four years.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
That ward where they kept the criminally insane was dangerous.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Psychologists quit on a monthly basis. The staff called in sick a lot&lt;br&gt;
or simply quit. People would walk through that ward with their backs&lt;br&gt;
against the wall, afraid of being attacked by patients. It was not a&lt;br&gt;
pleasant place to live, work, or visit.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"Dr. Len told me that he never saw patients. He agreed to have an&lt;br&gt;
office and to review their files. While he looked at those files, he&lt;br&gt;
would work on himself. As he worked on himself, patients began to heal.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"'After a few months, patients that had to be shackled were being&lt;br&gt;
allowed to walk freely,' he told me. 'Others who had to be heavily&lt;br&gt;
medicated were getting off their medications. And those who had no&lt;br&gt;
chance of ever being released were being freed.' I was in awe.'Not&lt;br&gt;
only that,' he went on, 'but the staff began to enjoy coming to work.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Absenteeism and turnover disappeared. We ended up with more staff than
we needed because patients were being released, and all the staff was
showing up to work. Today, that ward is closed.'&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"This is where I had to ask the million dollar question: 'What were&lt;br&gt;
you doing within yourself that caused those people to change?'&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"'I was simply healing the part of me that created them,' he said. I&lt;br&gt;
didn't understand. Dr. Len explained that total responsibility for&lt;br&gt;
your life means that everything in your life- simply because it is in&lt;br&gt;
your life--is your responsibility. In a literal sense the entire world&lt;br&gt;
is your creation.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"Whew. This is tough to swallow. Being responsible for what I say or&lt;br&gt;
do is one thing. Being responsible for what everyone in my life says&lt;br&gt;
or does is quite another. Yet, the truth is this: if you take complete&lt;br&gt;
responsibility for your life, then everything you see, hear, taste,&lt;br&gt;
touch, or in any way experience is your responsibility because it is&lt;br&gt;
in your life. This means that terrorist activity, the president, the&lt;br&gt;
economy or anything you experience and don't like--is up for you to&lt;br&gt;
heal. They don't exist, in a manner of speaking, except as projections&lt;br&gt;
from inside you. The problem isn't with them, it's with you, and to&lt;br&gt;
change them, you have to change you.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"I know this is tough to grasp, let alone accept or actually live.&lt;br&gt;
Blame is far easier than total responsibility, but as I spoke with Dr.&lt;br&gt;
Len, I began to realize that healing for him and in ho 'oponopono&lt;br&gt;
means loving yourself.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"If you want to improve your life, you have to heal your life. If you&lt;br&gt;
want to cure anyone, even a mentally ill criminal you do it by healing&lt;br&gt;
you.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"I asked Dr. Len how he went about healing himself. What was he doing, exactly, when he looked at those patients' files?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"'I just kept saying, 'I'm sorry' and 'I love you' over and over again,'&lt;br&gt;
he explained.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"That's it?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"That's it.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"Turns out that loving yourself is the greatest way to improve&lt;br&gt;
yourself, and as you improve yourself, you improve your world.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"Let me give you a quick example of how this works: one day, someone
sent me an email that upset me. In the past I would have handled it by
working on my emotional hot buttons or by trying to reason with the
person who sent the nasty message.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"This time, I decided to try Dr. Len's method. I kept silently saying,&lt;br&gt;
'I'm sorry' and 'I love you,' I didn't say it to anyone in particular.&lt;br&gt;
I was simply evoking the spirit of love to heal within me what was&lt;br&gt;
creating the outer circumstance.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"Within an hour I got an e-mail from the same person. He apologized&lt;br&gt;
for his previous message. Keep in mind that I didn't take any outward&lt;br&gt;
action to get that apology. I didn't even write him back. Yet, by&lt;br&gt;
saying 'I love you,' I somehow healed within me what was creating him.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"I later attended a ho 'oponopono workshop run by Dr. Len. He's now 70
years old, considered a grandfatherly shaman, and is somewhat reclusive.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
He praised my book, The Attractor Factor. He told me that as I improve&lt;br&gt;
myself, my book's vibration will raise, and everyone will feel it when&lt;br&gt;
they read it. In short, as I improve, my readers will improve.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"'What about the books that are already sold and out there?' I asked.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"'They aren't out there,' he explained, once again blowing my mind&lt;br&gt;
with his mystic wisdom. 'They are still in you.' In short, there is no&lt;br&gt;
out there. It would take a whole book to explain this advanced&lt;br&gt;
technique with the depth it deserves.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
"Suffice It to say that whenever you want to improve anything in your&lt;br&gt;
life, there's only one place to look: inside you. When you look, do it&lt;br&gt;
with love."&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The words of Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len:&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp;" Ho'oponopono is
really very simple. For the ancient Hawaiians, all problems begin as
thought. But having a thought is not the problem. So what's the
problem? The problem is that all our thoughts are imbued with painful
memories, memories of persons, places, or things.&lt;br&gt;
&amp;nbsp;The intellect working alone can't solve these problems, because the
intellect only manages. Managing things is no way to solve problems.
You want to let them go! When you do Ho'oponopono, what happens is that
the Divinity takes the painful thought and neutralizes or purifies it.
You don't purify the person, place, or thing. You neutralize the energy
you associate with that person, place, or thing. So the first stage of
Ho'oponopono is the purification of that energy.&lt;br&gt;
&amp;nbsp;Now something wonderful happens. Not only does that energy get
neutralized; it also gets released, so there's a brand new slate.
Buddhists call it the Void. The final step is that you allow the
Divinity to come in and fill the void with light.&lt;br&gt;
&amp;nbsp;To do Ho'oponopono, you don't have to know what the problem or error
is. All you have to do is notice any problem you are experiencing
physically, mentally, emotionally, whatever. Once you notice, your
responsibility is to immediately begin to clean, to say, "I'm sorry.
Please forgive me."&lt;br&gt;

One day an acquaintance met the great philosopher and said, &amp;#8220;Do you
know what I just heard about your friend?&amp;#8221;..&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;Hold on a minute,&amp;#8221; Socrates replied. &amp;#8220;Before telling me anything, I&amp;#8217;d
like you to pass a little test. It&amp;#8217;s called the Triple Filter Test&amp;#8221;..&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;Triple filter?&amp;#8221;..&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;That&amp;#8217;s right,&amp;#8221; Socrates continued. &amp;#8220;Before you talk to me about my
friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you&amp;#8217;re
going to say. That&amp;#8217;s why I call it the triple filter test. The first
filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about
to tell me is true?&amp;#8221;..&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;No,&amp;#8221; the man said, &amp;#8220;Actually I just heard about it and&amp;#8221;...&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;All right,&amp;#8221; said Socrates. &amp;#8220;So you don&amp;#8217;t really know if it&amp;#8217;s true or
not. Now let&amp;#8217;s try the second filter, the filter of goodness. Is what
you are about to tell me about my friend something good?&amp;#8221;..&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;No, on the contrary&amp;#8221;...&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;So,&amp;#8221; Socrates continued, &amp;#8220;You want to tell me something bad about him,
but you&amp;#8217;re not certain it&amp;#8217;s true. You may still pass the test though,
because there&amp;#8217;s one filter left: the filter of usefulness. Is what you
want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?&amp;#8221;..&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;No, not really&amp;#8221;..&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;#8220;Well,&amp;#8221; concluded Socrates, &amp;#8220;If what you want to&lt;a href="http://photo.xanga.com/kuanyin33/dea98202111380/photo.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://xde.xanga.com/a988220119269202111380/z156780209.jpg" style="border-width: 0px;" alt="!cid_006301c78784$657e5740$01fea8c0@craig1" width="320"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?&amp;#8221;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;1) IS IT TRUE?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;
&lt;br style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;
2) IS IT GOOD?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;
&lt;br style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;
3) IS IT USEFUL?&lt;/span&gt; </description><comments>http://www.xanga.com/kuanyin33/667633212/the-socrates-triple-filter-test.html#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>And So It Is!</title><link>http://www.xanga.com/kuanyin33/667269930/and-so-it-is.html</link><guid>http://www.xanga.com/kuanyin33/667269930/and-so-it-is.html</guid><pubDate>Wed, 23 Jul 2008 10:44:40 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;font size="5"&gt;I love this teaching &lt;a href="http://photo.xanga.com/kuanyin33/f8f63201603552/photo.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://xf8.xanga.com/f638522b67518201603552/z156332329.jpg" style="border-width: 0px;" alt="newkuanyin16" height="400"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; from Abraham through Esther Hicks:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;"You will notice that
those who speak most of prosperity, have it. Those who speak most of
health, have it. Those who speak most of sickness, have it. Those who
speak most of poverty, have it. It is Law. It can be no other way...
The way you feel is your point of attraction, and so, the Law of
Attraction is most understood when you see yourself as a magnet getting
more and more of the way you feel. When you feel lonely, you attract
more loneliness. When you feel poor, you attract more poverty. When you
feel sick, you attract more sickness. When you feel unhappy, you
attract more unhappiness. When you feel healthy and vital and alive and

It's our choice.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I've enclosed the email instructions so if you choose to receive these Intenders Message, you know how to contact them. &lt;a href="http://photo.xanga.com/kuanyin33/3c0e4199048630/photo.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://x3c.xanga.com/0e4c7a1448730199048630/z154090028.jpg" style="border-width: 0px;" alt="Smallest Apples" width="400"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font size="4" face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font size="4" face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font size="4" face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;+++++++++++++++&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font size="4" face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font size="4" face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font size="4" face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Bridge ~ Reminder #116&lt;br&gt;
Receiving Your Own Messages&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="center"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Create with Love and your creation will Love you back  &lt;br&gt;
&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div align="left"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;I have a copyright on my work, but I can't say
as I'd enforce it if someone with good intent wanted to take a portion
of it and use it. In fact, there is one piece of information that I've
gleaned in the last few years that I would encourage my readers to copy
down and use freely. My good friend, Debra Ward, who runs the Intenders
Circle in Houston, calls it The Intenders Prayer and I mentioned it in
the seventh step of The Bridge earlier, but it is so important that I
mention it again here. It has to do with the instructions I give myself
before sitting down and picking up a pencil or speaking to a group of
people. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt; I've come to realize that there is an exactness, a clarity, that
is required when we begin to make contact with helpers from other
dimensions. Whether we know it or not, all of us are receiving messages
from the invisible a good deal of the time. Entities from invisible
worlds come and go from our bodies and we don't even realize that what
we're saying may not be coming from us, but from a being who just
popped into our body to pursue its own interests. We're a world full of
people who have given free-reign to the rest of the energies in the
Universe, to use our bodies at their discretion. If you think about it,
this would explain all of the mood swings, self-detrimental activities,
violent and nonproductive behavior you see all around and within you.
We're simply letting some invisible being use our body. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt; A good example of this can be found in the writings of most of our
present-day, best selling authors. Stephen King, for instance, has
surely tapped into an almost unlimited source of information, (he says
it's a cigar chomping muse). But the fearful nature of his work
suggests that it's doubtful if his muse is interested in creating a
better world for us to live in.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt; Indeed, we can enhance our creativity and beneficent behavior by
using this new knowledge wisely. We can invite beings who only stand
for the Highest Good to use our bodies. We can issue clear instructions
to those who would come in and borrow our voice or our writing hand. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt; I know that this will sound like an oversimplification to many of
you, but I suggest that it is entirely possible that the world we live
in would take a monumental change for the better if we were to stop for
a moment before we say or do anything that is of value to us and give
ourselves brief instructions for what we desire to follow. My whole
world began to change when I began to stop and take a minute or two to
talk to the Universe each time the outcome of my actions was important
to me (which became more and more frequent).&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt; For me, taking that moment or two became the difference between
caring and not caring. I began to see a noticeable difference in the
quality of my work. And, at the same time, everything got a lot more
enjoyable for me.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt; So, like I said, you can borrow my instructions if you like. Put
them to the test. See what comes out. I intend for you all the best
that life has to offer.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
            	&lt;strong&gt;The instructions I use are:&lt;/strong&gt;       	&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
         1. &lt;em&gt;I ask that everything needing to be known is known here today. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;
          	2. &lt;em&gt;I Intend that I am guided guarded, and  protected at all times.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;br&gt;
          	3. &lt;em&gt;I Intend that all of my words (or writings) are clear, precise, uplifting, helpful, and fun.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;
          	4. &lt;em&gt;And
I Intend that all of my words and thoughts and deeds serve the Highest
and best Good of the Universe, myself, and everybody everywhere. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;So be it and so it is.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="center"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;em&gt;My Intention for today is:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;em&gt;I Intend that I am only attracting invisible energies to me&lt;br&gt;
    who stand for the Highest Good. &lt;/em&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;
&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;
&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
