STORIES TO MOVE YOU

ADVENTURES OF AN UNGIFTED PSYCHIC
I did not really ask but was suddenly and literally hit on the head with the gift for psychic reading healing. It was while working in the completed unrelated field of IT security project management when deep inside me this revolution took place. Contrary to the expectations of psychics winning lotteries and getting their own books and TV shows, my life as a brand new gifted healer, did not get easier in any way. In exchange for the gift of being able to heal people by using clairvoyant readings to inform them of their life patterns and traumas, I lost the ability to make money. I stopped having any successful job interviews and it is almost impossible to take advantage in a commercial way of God given gifts that start flowing through you. Consequently I had to live like a monk or an easy woman and become dependent on the kindness of strangers - voluntary donations. The materially challenged lifestyle due to the healing gifts brought on as compensation a change in attitude towards the materialistic world. A forced appreciation of the free spiritual things in life made to me the aware of the free gifts in life. These free joys are available to everyone and range from feeling the joy of sending out thoughts of love to people we knew to the happiness in helping a stranger unconditionally. Life became tougher but infinitely more adventurous. These stories are shared adventures based on a universal lesson and meaning for every one of us. Like me the stories are short, simple and deep.

CHAKRA 7: THE TEMPLE OF GOD

I know what the promise was before dying that I made and my mission on this planet. These words were said with a joy that seemed to be so out of place. S was suffering from a number of diseases ranging from cancer to malignant tumors. Any one of these illnesses was capable of making a normal person inactive and dull. In comparison to others, S was active and even drove around in her car to her appointments. Her energy levels were not constant and fluctuated up and down in spurts, leaving her with phases of extreme tiredness. The worst part of her interviewing me in this condition was the look in her eyes. It was cunning and skeptically enquiring, having filtered out as well as filtered in many astrologer, faith healers, masseurs as well as Medical Doctors.. S had been trying for some time all the possible methods to get better. She uses a blend of non traditional methods and standard methods like using astrological predictions to choose doctors, hospitals and days of operation.. I could feel her soul thru her eyes intelligently asking for proof of my abilities. There was a mix of healthy skepticism along with a strong hope that this would be the real deal in terms of psychic powers and healing. She had invited me to her home based on references of her friend who had started to walk after years of being bed ridden with my prayers.

The pain S was feeling right now was acute enough to force her to call me in front of her taunting husband. The promise of relief was therefore more powerful than her usual fear of husbands bitter jibes teasing her as a stupid vulnerable person who was always getting ripped off by various medicinal men. The fact that I work totally on volunteer donations was the only reason he accepted my presence. In answer to her look, I switched myself off and attuned to our common bond- the source of creation and divinity to help her. The information that flowed thru me was something like this: I: Why are you worried now when you have had clinical deaths and managed to recover. She: I have had clinical deaths twice. I: You are Gods beloved. You have been close to death not twice but thrice. She smiled I was saying that to check you. Now I can trust you more. I: The real reason for your illnesses is your deep inability to appreciate your privileges. All our illnesses are a result of this block our basic inability to appreciate the biggest privilege of all being divine by birthright and connected to God and the universe .Your whole life was tainted by thoughts of comparing yourself to your sister. You compared yourself and felt bad. It is this envy and the fact that some of the money you earned was not honest that is the source of your present sickness. Now she was listening earnestly. My gift of being able to pinpoint the traumas in life serving as the root cause of the diseases manifesting themselves as physical diseases always surprised me. Sometimes as in this case the information was not only too personal but also uncomfortable yet I had to say it aloud for the healing to be initiated. The very act of saying out aloud those reasons to the person started the process of healing in three ways. 1/ the patients soul or subconscious heard in my voice its own life traumas and started the healing. In this way my gift is to awaken and unlock the gift of healing in you. 2/ knowledge of patterns of life and traumas identified and said aloud by a total stranger makes the soul of the person aware that there are more things in heaven and earth than we can see with our eyes. The sure knowledge of the limitation of the physical -material world is necessary to kick-starts the process of attempting to rise above it and achieve health. 3/the vocalization of life patterns cleans and balances the attitude and body by reconnecting your personality with the divinity inside and around you. The psychic healing reading is both a prayer as well as a meditation. The session continued:

I: You also have some unfinished business. You made a promise during one of your clinical deaths. Do you remember that? She could not remember immediately but the next day she came in to see me. She had recalled her promise and her tone was lively. S: Yes. I had been involved in planning to build a synagogue. I had started to plan and collect the money. I even had meetings with Rabbi and the town council. However after the meetings I had not found the strength to continue. I am going to start the process again. I: NO. Do not get involved with building the synagogue again. Leave that to people who are younger, healthier, more adapted and more in need of this process than you. Building a synagogue is not going to help you. It is not the priority being indicated by the powers above. You are making things more complex than required. You are barely surviving yourself. The temple God wants you to be taking care of now is your own body. Let not any inappropriate thoughts defile that temple. Let not any actions that degrade you be part of the prayers in the temple. All you have to do is to send out thoughts of love to the family which you feel has wronged you deeply. Her expression fell. She was not happy with the simplification and her immediate long face was testament to that. Somewhere inside us we always know the simplicity of truth when we are hit with it. This is probably due to the resonance with the deep lying knowledge of this and all truths inside us. However it is a fact that in todays world of flashy internet and entertainment, the truth always seems to be drab and unexciting .As as result we are always bored of simple truths. It is more exciting to embark on an expensive diet of exotic Himalayan or Amazonian berries than just shutting up our traps and eating less in a disciplined manner. S is not the only person with an urge to try to take refuge in the beautifully complicated medicines rather than the simple solutions of meditation, prayer and invoking personal will power. I have met more than one person who was involved in studies and researches to provide proof that they were descended from planets like Sirius, Pleiades. or civilizations like Atlantis and makers of Pyramids and engineers of 2012 year future apocalypse( more about this in the last story). When I asked how would this information about UFOs , ancestry from planets, destruction in 2012 helps them in ordinary life cope with the challenge of being good partners, lovers , parents or children , each of the Pleidans and others were silent. The simple fact that even if they were descended from stars and there would be an earth shaking cataclysm on planet, it still would not change anything in our regular lives and our need to meet all our obligations honestly and truthfully .

Morale: The way to God and self realization is deceptively simple and bland. Mysticism is much interesting but just because a path seems to be more exotic, expensive and seemingly out of reach , it does not guarantee that it is the correct path. Since each one of is Gods favorite child, we all have these inherited tools and have no need to go anywhere or do anything special except close our eyes and get in touch with ourselves. We can not better handle our responsibilities and develop towards God by taking complex paths. The path of development is difficult because it is deceptively banal and simple Be good and let go of the past and you will be healthy and happy.

CHAKRA 6- INTUITION - THE BIG PICTURE

L was volunteering with me. She was tall and very lean but her thinness was not born out of yoga training but out of her body negating everything from life. There was a difference therefore in her approach to healing thru energy and my approach to solve everything thru love and God. Her intentions and energy to help others was pure like mine and I was also glad to have some company in the frequently empty office during the first few months of the psychic yoga clinic. Nowadays even if we pray with the right intentions for someone, it helps in a tangible way regardless of the way that they may decide to serve you. The gift of healing appears in different people in different ways and they are all good in their way. Some can read lifelines on hands while people like some like me get highly intuitive and start getting healing information from a divine pool of knowledge. Volunteering with me, she had witnessed firsthand the few times I had been able to access information about peoples past life patterns that affected their present lives. She finally asked for and got ready for a healing reading. She had a good energy and a great desire to help others while at the same time she had frequent periods when she would be listless and anorexic. Her feminine energy and good intentions compensated for a huge lack of enthusiasm for most things unrelated to her immediate interest which was to teach others how to live. One day she asked me to help her. I can almost never take the initiative to ask someone if they wanted me to help them. The desire for healing has to come from the person in need. I asked her to lie down and touched her forehead to start channeling the information. Starting the process I immediately went into the never too familiar trance. Only once in ten clients I get information about past life- information relating to health issues. The information from past is always accepted by the listener somewhat to my surprise. The same happened with Lena. You were a guard. I see you in a uniform. You were supposed to be taking care of a group of weak children and old. You were happy in your role as the protector of the poor. However you died trying to save them. You witnessed that all your efforts to save them came to noting. This was a huge trauma for you and now you dont believe in God at all.

She recognized the truth. L: I had been depressed for the first 30 years of life. What was my fault? You failed to recognize the big picture. The big picture was that you had to understand that ever was playing their roles. You played your role as a guard while the executioners played their role by taking part in the whole cleaning process. The victims had set themselves as sacrifices on the altar of life play and the executioners were the medium of adjustment. The sacrifice set the whole nation on a different level. The Jewish community having undergone huge sacrifices controls so much of the material world now. The knowledge of truth set her free. She was now free of the past till she was able to keep her past thoughts from coming back to her. To keep the past away and maintain there is only one way. That way is to keep meditating on the present as our past problems are with us till the moment we empower those thoughts with values and judgments. The moment we consider the thoughts of the past to be like drifting clouds, we are free of them. Morale: See the big picture which is always positive. Where a normal person sees murder and theft an enlightened may see the human tragedy but at the same time may be able to appreciate the cleansing of the soul hidden in such traumatic developments.

CHAKRA 5COMMUNICATE ONLY LOVE

The Mom with her daughter was a beautiful pair. Both were similar and the daughter looked like a brunette angel. Mom: She is having problems. She has a nervous tic and is hyper active. When she stands after some time she starts to cross and uncross her legs. The Doctors have conducted all sorts of tests and not found anything wrong at all. I could see that more than the 6 years old child it was Mom who was having problems. She had blocks in perception. Mom: She is been having this problem for 2 years now. I checked the girl and touched her forehead. I: No it was three years ago and it happened twice. You and your husband fought and the fight happened in front of the child. His burst of anger has resulted in her having this nervous tic Mom now broke down. Yes it was a complete accident that she witnessed that fight. Her father even now regrets the outburst. I told her Your husband in that burst of anger used angry words loaded with sexual imagery. The impressionable childrens mind had latched on to that aspect resulting in her current condition. This was an angel who was suffering due to being sensitive and kind.

Morale: We have to be promising ourselves to be communicating only love through all our being. Any violence even oral or in thoughts can have big implications for the rest and therefore for ourselves. In another instance of communication relating issues: I got a call from Israel. I : Hi. S: Can you help me. My Mom in Toronto says that you helped her immensely. I: If you are ready to help yourself, I will be the catalyst of change in you and for you. S:I am depressed and have been taken to the hospital twice for heart related emergencies. I meditated and asked her what the significance of the age 33 is. S:I got married and he keeps on helping his first family. He has children and keeps on helping them with all the money that he makes. He leaves almost nothing for us. I :Well for you, it is an easy task. All you have to do is to communicate your deep love towards your husband. S:How can I do that ? I: Communicate love to your husband and his previous family. Help your husband in not feeling any feeling of guilt or remorse for the family that he has left out of his of love for you. My words strike a blow and penetrate to t heart for three reasons: 1/ the words are from a higher self 2/ the listener also know at a deeper level and just need my voice to be the catalyst to start the changes required. 3/they are simple without any complexity in terms of needing any expense, external effort or ritual. Sure enough in a week I got another call. S: How can I send you money? In the first time in 6 years I prayed and sent to my husband and his ex family. Coincidentally on the same day he brought me flowers and chocolates. It was the first time in six years. I want to send you money. As much as it I want to accept the money, all this clairvoyance makes you impractical as well as makes you notice different levels of energy exchange. The act of payment is important but not the sum. You start seeing the different connections between helping others and helping ourselves.

So it was that I asked her to pay to the Synagogue and I would get the energy in some way. We are all inter- related. Therefore the best ways to take care of our inescapable depression is to help others less fortunate.

CHAKRA 4 HEART-LOVE TO ALL

S came over in a panic. He was suffering from regular panic attacks leading to insomnia. When I worked with him, it was more a feeling of being tested due to his curiosity than a healing psychic reading. The reading opened him up. The resulting feeling of peace and a good sleep made him ready to accept the healing meditations prescribed to him. The next day he came over to ask for advice. By chance an energy master was visiting me based on curiosity. S started to ask him questions. I could see that the explanations were not regarded but the important thing was the focus on him by others. S had access to all the information that was being given to him but he needed to feel important and be at the center of attention. The moment I felt the change in dynamics, I asked them to stop and asked him to start sending love to all , especially to his family. The stress he had faced in his previous phase in life (before the heart attack) had made him dependent on his wife, who had become the main financial support- bread provider for the family. It was inevitable that after some time, we can only become angry at the person to whom we have to be thankful. We all want to be like God- powerful- in control full of love but the dependency on anyone shakes our feeling of inadequacy. It is for this reason that very often we are forced to betray the one we love to recover our false sense of pride. Saying simply thanks seems demeaning to us because it makes us feel less than who we are All powerful Gods. The exercise I had asked him to do was simple. Send out thoughts of love to people who he felt had wronged him. When he came back he had become better but was a long way from being cured. Instinctively I asked him Are you doing the meditation exercises fine. S: Yes. I meditate regularly. I send love to all. From my project management background I knew that when everyone shares the responsibility for some critical process, it is a red flag indicating that no one is really managing the activity. In the same way I asked him do you send love specifically to his wife, mother in law and children people with whom I could see who surrounded him and with whom he was having difficulties because of his lack of self acceptance and judgments. S: No. The love does not flow from my heart when I think of them. I: Love to all is love to none. It is a feeling of make believe happiness when we send love to the whole world, but our salvation is in sending it to specific people we perceive to have hurt us and those that surround us. The exercises of sending love without attaching a name and face to it weakens us. First we send love to people it is easier for us to send love to , then

to people who are in need and suffering but those that we dont know personally. Lastly we start to send love to people that have hurt us. We have to understand that the people in our lives were playing their scripted role in providing us the life lesson we needed to grow. It was personal and not personal at the same time. It is only thru pain that we seem to grow so there are people who have elected to send us that pain and make us grow. The people who caused the pain go away but our judgment of them rankles in our body leading to a faster destruction of our cells and body than designed by nature in short premature aging is caused by the feeling of anger we maintain at others. Morale: Send love from our heart by remembering name and faces. Love to all is love to none and remains an abstract entity.

CHAKRA 3 IN SOCIETY - LIVING WITH THE GHOST

I was surprised that even though the house was so luxurious, there was nothing really wrong with it. The kids were healthy and for a change in North America seemed to be obedient. You could feel that it was a nice family with the family head not only being rich and successful but having deep spiritual inclinations. He had read a lot of books about integration of modern sciences with the ancient texts of religion. What I felt odd was that the settings were luxurious and there seemed to be no guilt feelings which I had got used to in visiting places of luxury. The money did not seem to be earned from any wrong doings. I: Why did you invite me? Gordon: There is a negative presence. My wife has seen a ghost. He had invited me for house cleansing and I had noticed energy with my hands. Wife: I know what I saw. It was a ghostly presence. A couple of times late in the night when I went to the kitchen, in the corner near the sink, I saw a bluish presence with unrecognizable but human features. The wife in short felt that the house had a wrong energy and blamed the ghost on all her migraines. I closed my eyes and focused. The resolution I got was simple, inexpensive and based on love for all. I: Learn to live with the ghost. He is not troubling you. All you have to do to appease it is to make it happy. Them: How? I: Just leave a shot of good whiskey at a corner out of reach of children and things would be fine.

The husband was now smiling and really happy at my advice. It was a relief that he will not have to sell this luxurious house because of the wifes headaches. The moral was that even with the negative things you try to work out in a friendly and soft manner. Some of the people I tried to cure I told them to tell their body part or the disease to say the following: Oh disease, now that you have woken me up I value life more. Now go in peace. Morale: We have to treat even the grossly negative forces with love and send them on their way away without aggression in any way. Even the negative is Gods child serving humanity in a different way.

CHAKRA 2 SELF ESTEEM - THE LADY WITH THE GHOST

She was good looking and I could feel that she had smartly exploited her attraction for career success. The session started. I: You are gifted. You have charm and appeal so you would never know the lack of attention from men. She: I know that I always was able to exploit men. I: Yeah but at the end it was you got exploited more. It is like in the old song- who is the hunter and who is the hunted. It is difficult to make out as looks in this case are almost always deceptive. She nodded her head lying down in the massage couch with eyes closed.

I: You had a traumatic experience at 16. The incident has left a fear of men in you. That is the reason why you cannot have successful relations with men who came in your life. You felt that you were cleverly exploiting them and taking your revenge but in reality by letting themselves be exploited you were being exploited. It does not matter whether the knife falls on the watermelon or the watermelon hits the knife- the result is the same. She wanted healthy relationship and at the same times harbored a deep rooted fear of the opposite sex. It is a common problem. People hold on to first angers and then at the same time try to have good relations with the other sex. I told her not to expect anything from men but to be like big children. If you hold on to anger from your past at a member of the opposite sex, you will not be able to achieve a good relationship. It is like if you are

10

angry at one , you are angry at all and this anger shows up in your relation issues making true love ineffective. With this lady I felt that there was a fear and infatuation with the opposite sex since her the incident in her teenage. Continuing the session I moved my hands over the aura in the lower chakras when I felt a foreign energy. The lower chakra areas are responsible for the . I reached out into her auras lower parts and took out and sort of dissipated the negative with my hands. She relaxed immediately. There was something that was foreign energy inside you in the lower part. She understood immediately. Maybe it was my dead grand ma. She often comes to me and comforts me. I: No. If it had been grandma you would not be having the nightmares that you have. It is the person who caused you the trauma when you were 16. She got upright but did not refute what had been said. She did say that she had been scared by her grandma whom she knew to be dead and seeing again in her dreams. She however keeps in touch by phone but never came back the next time. The reason - We love whatever haunts us. Morale: To let go is sometimes impossible because we like the drama. It is impossible for us to cure someone who is in love with whatever is haunting us.

CHAKRA1 FEARS -MAN FROM PLEIADES AND 2012

1/ THE MAN FROM PLEIADES
As a young IT professional I did not expect to hear the words which I did from my friend. I know. I have been told that my headaches are based on my astral twin fighting to take control of my body. He was suffering from headaches for which he had tried all sorts of cures. In his search f cures he had tried traditional as well as non traditional systems. He was trying my new abilities but was deeply convinced that he was suffering was from an astral twin syndrome. The astral twin was fighting for body control due to past actions- karma. I could sense that he had two energy dis-balances at the same time- in the lower section as well as the third chakra. My proposed cure was to meditate together and thru prayer ask the two energy centers be balanced. Since our energy is controlled by our all powerful soul who is the passenger in this body, once invoked, it usually works.

11

My friend did experience relief but he never came back. The reason As we noticed before not only do we love our diseases we cannot accept the simple cure for them. The more complex a cure is the more we like it.. After the session I told him was to serve his family and meet his responsibilities as a sure shot cure for his headaches instead of focusing on astral mumbo jumbo. I knew that when we meet our responsibilities fully our family and social obligations- there is a high chance of us finding a cure simply by praying.

2/ THE COUPLE WHO WERE DEVOTED TO SHAMANISM

The Russian couples looked well were good and were ideal for each other but they were both going thru a tough time. The words on the phone had told me to expect that -I need you. My energy is low. This is an emergency. The words also told me to expect meeting people adept at playing with energy. A lot of people who exploit energy do not really understand that anything that we exploit exploits back in return. When I met them I saw that they did not have any negative deeds in the past. However both were feeling lost in life. I knew the challenges of the first few years of being emigrants in a new land. Due to the stress, the divorce rate hits as high as 70% amongst new emigrants . Our anger and frustration in starting from scratch make us angry at the only person around who cares. I started the session and told them to consider our session a prayer. They both relaxed with a smile. Every time that I mentioned the word God during the session-the smile grew bigger. They were glad to have come to the right place. At the end of the session, both admitted that they had practiced yoga and energy but in a different form. Usually all forms of yoga and meditation are just prayers and it does not really matter what path people take towards their higher self. Not one of the yoga paths of devotion, knowledge, duty action yoga do not lead to the feeling of being lost that the couple had shared. There was something wrong. The husband admitted. We had been practicing Cosmic Yoga in Russia for six years. I had not heard of Cosmic Yoga but then I have not heard of a lot of things relating to different energy practices. I did know that when people practiced meditation and energy without the factor of love and God, they had problems. All attempts at harnessing the energy of the universe without factoring in love and God ultimately seem to end up with being exploited by the energy. I could make out that what the Russian couple had done was basically a form of shamanism. Shamanism deals with energies at a primitive level and it works at the lower chakras or the lower more primitive drives of a person. The Russian couple had devoted six years to the practice when they noticed that even after devoting such a long time some of their colleagues had become visibly more irritating while they themselves had not changed for the better No one had become kinder softer or happier which is what all spiritual development is about.

12

After having searched for the right place with Gods guidance to meditate, they took to meditation practices like fish to water. Their energy exercises had made them prepared for intensive cleaning. All they had to do was to add to their regular exercises components of God and compassionate love for all. Morale: Unless in our energy and meditation we let in and factor in God, it is easy to be misled. The simple test for any spiritual development is if we feel becoming better human beings - more capable of laugher , loving and fun. The path to God is very simple but we are attracted to complex things that leave us confused and without clarity. We want to forget the simple medicine of things like bland prayers and meditation in favor of mystical and complex rituals and symbols.

3/ THE UN-BALANCED SOLDIER

He was so funny and instinctively enlightened. The ex soldier was very garrulous. He kept everyone entertained with silly and funny vulgar jokes. I could feel that he needed to be balanced and grounded. He agreed to a session. When I worked with him, I felt that his lower chakras were unbalanced. When our lower chakras are unbalanced, we feel rootless without a strong foundation with Mother Earth or with others. He was not the first case like that. It seems that all soldiers who had undergone army training had deliberately unbalanced lower energy centers with the results that they were always in a stage of flight or fight. This condition had served them in the army well as the soldiers were always strung up and more aware towards hidden dangers but now that they were in peaceful surroundings, their dis-balance made them psychologically vulnerable. Once I had explained the source of his discomfort, the soldier was able to meditate with me and get rid of his past issues as the army life had also gifted him with good intuition and discipline two things which are essential for the seeker to remove fear and be relaxed.

4/ THE YEAR 2012 PHOBIA

Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. There are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end. Bribery and corruption are common." (Oldest recorded apocalypse warning on an Assyrian clay tablet- 2800 BC. ) Even five thousand years ago at the start of ancient civilizations, the fear of a doomsday was with us. While none of the prophecies worked, thousands have died of the fear and the anticipation including some who committed suicides from the stress. Right now a Google search for "2012" and "the end of the world" will bring in more than 300,000 hits. YouTube has more than 65,000 clips about 2012.

13

Recently when I was invited by friends to their new home.The house was beautiful and expensive. I asked them out of a sense of envy as well as concern for I knew their financial limits having at times loaned money to them. Me: How did you manage to buy this? Host: Well what we care. By the time we have to pay for it. It will be 2012 and there wont be any payments to make. I felt a dj vu. This was not the first time in history that people were getting afraid of the future and just indulging in naked consumerism. Recently another lady had bought an almost a million dollar mansion. The main reason for the buying was depression at being left alone by husband and feeling insecure about her job. You would think that job insecurity would be the last thing on the mind of someone signing on a mortgage document but that is the way our mind works when we are afraid.

People have made millions based on our collective insecurity. Authors have managed to make their books best sellers by invoking this inherent fear of death. In 1988 88 Reasons Why The Rapture Could Be In 1988 sold more than 4 million copies. The rapture is the apocalyptic second coming of Christ. The event, of course, did not happen. The author wrote a sequel for 1989. After selling more copies, he wrote another sequel for 1993 and when that failed he wrote another sequel for 1994. The author was wrong every time about the end of the world but he made money every time he said that. The Jupiter Effect, ,1970 book The Late, Great Planet Earth and Bible Code are some of the other books that have exploited our fear for the benefit of the smart authors.
The root cause of our fear is started by our sense of entitlement that makes us angry at not having more or having things only our way. We start liking things only when they fit our image of ourselves.This anger becomes an irritation at the way things are and finally we start getting angry at God- ourselves and life in general. The ability to be angry at and doubt God ends up with a fear of being isolated. Any fear makes us irrational due to our primal reaction of flight or fight reaction. Unfortunately most of the time consumerism is the easiest response this fear. Our ability to buy and get something fast helps to take the focus of our original problem. The instant gratification of buying makes us feel a sense of achievement taking the edge off our fear and insecurity. I had also met people who had donated their lifes savings to sects in return for promises of safety. In Dubai a Russian church had received vast donations from scared people promising salvation in exchange for life savings. History is full of such apocalyptic dates and people are able to exploit that fear in various ways. Fear of the future makes us irrational leaving us very vulnerable to exploitation in any way . For example Argentinean international goalkeeper Carlos Roa was acclaimed as one of the world's best

14

keepers. In 2000 he refused to sign a new contract with his team out of fear that the earth would be destroyed. He did return to the game a year later, but lost his form.

In todays world when we are scared and unhappy we buy. It is the simplest thing to do. Buying makes us think that we are doing something and the instant gratification of having a thingy in hands makes us believe that we achieved something. However anything that we buy suffers from three limitations: 1/ it gets old. 2/The neighbor has a better one. 3/ the peace and sustainability we were looking for is not present in whatever we bought. We bought a car like BMW with a more manly image for twice the money instead of the more reliable Camry however the buying does not change anything in the core of You. What we had wanted to do was to achieve a sense of achievement but what we ended up by buying is a temporary high with a hangover known as Buyers Blues. Some states have official cool off periods before big buys for this reason. The reason is that we can buy a hundred planes and luxury cars but if we are looking for emotional security, all of these goods will finally backfire. You are not the goods that you can or did buy. You without the goods we can buy is still You. The Indian scriptures have a story from Mahabharata where the biggest riddle of all is that we live with certain knowledge of death yet live almost never thinking about it. With this certainty we should be focused not on the sure shot death but on what all we are able to achieve before we meet death whenever that happens. There is no tragedy for an enlightened person. In death and apocalypse the enlightened one will see cleansing and a radical change towards better. Like forcefully making people letting go of cars that we drive in favor of brand new clothes or vehicles of our choice. It is tough to have an optimistic outlook about all cataclysms like one in Japan but in our enlightened age, our current job is not to be able to see God not only in a childs smile and flowers- but the current responsibility is the achieve the ability to see God in the situations when shit hits the fan which is pretty much all the time nowadays>

I had been part of the wave of consultants who had benefited from the Y2K scare in 1999 when the expectation had been that the world markets would crash. Consultants had made sufficient money in those times based on the irrational fear as all everyone had to do was to write mini codes or simple time changing scripts . Added to this was the factor that *Nostradamus had himself chosen, July 1999 was the chosen date of Armageddon

May 5, 2000, had also been predicted due to an alignment of planets which would cause massive earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. People forgot that in 1982 the same alignment had without any results. We have forgotten that we are inherently divine whether we have things or not. We forgot that there can be no tragedy in a world so lovingly created and full of divinity. We think that if there was seemingly a tragedy for all humanity and we would survive in a village, it would be worth it. We forget that we are all interconnected and we will survive and party together to the new Mayan cycle just like the Mayans had planned. The Mayan calendar comes to an end on December 23, 2012 and there's no historical evidence that the Mayans themselves expected any apocalypse or anything bad to happen. The Mayan Long Count calendar tracks more than 5,000 years, then resets at year zero starting a new cycle.For the ancient Maya, it was a huge celebration to make it to the end of a whole cycle,. We should learn from the Mayans and get ready to party and enjoy the new cycle just like we enjoy every day and then go to death like sleep to rest and then resurrect ourselves next morning
