Faith and Healing, Mainstream Media Style – Who’s the Real Charlatan Here?



witch-stakeBy Stephen Cook – November 8, 2013

While there are some wonderful and progressive publications and news sources popping up around the world – both online and off – it seems certain elements still feel they have to toe the age-old line of “burning the witches at the stake”. Literally.

Last night, feeling a tad tired, I sat down in my lounge room during the early evening. This is not something I usually do at that time of day. I then did something else I don’t usually do at that hour – I turned on the TV.

I instantly recognised the person on my TV screen as being a man associated with theta healing. I know this because we held Blossom Goodchild’s Sydney event in his welcoming venue.

But first let me state upfront that I have NO link, or really any opinion on theta healing per se. What I feel or think about theta healing is actually totally irrelevant to the issue I wish to discuss.

The issue here is media manipulation. Or, if you wish, trial by media. So let me set the scene….

The guy I knew was talking about how he is an industrial scientist who never thought anything could help his back pain. “Oh, that’s Mark from the Co-Creation Centre”, I thought, as I also wondered: ”What’s this all about?” I then realised I was watching one of Australia’s two, sensationalist tabloid TV current affairs programs.

The story, it turned out was about an event held this past weekend in Sydney featuring US-based theta healing author Vianna Stibal. But this was no ordinary interview and feature story… as I also soon found out.

Mark was talking about how this type of healing had helped his back pain. Another lady was saying how it had lessened her Multiple Sclerosis symptoms. Another lady felt it had helped heal her cancer.

But as I kept watching I was saddened. The TV reporter and crew didn’t care that these people were saying they felt they had enjoyed some relief from their health issues. The story was simply out to discredit the whole concept of anything alternative, intangible and different. The reporter belittled whatever those interviewed said. He called Vianna a charlatan to her face and never let her finish what she was saying.

Then the footage cut straight to one of Australia’s most respected medical professionals, as he stated that supposed claims made by theta healing attendees and teachers were nothing but heresy. I doubt he even knew what the story and/or theta healing was about. He just said what the reporter led him to say.

Accusations about false claims, stories of Vianna’s son’s former wife and their divorce, and their legal cases were also bandied about as part of this report. They even filmed a theta-healing practitioner in Brisbane via a camera in a briefcase, asking her how she treated sick pets. I expect just so they could show how ‘crazy’ and ‘whacko’ alternate healers are…

In short, it was a knife job. ‘Whoa’, I thought ‘ that was pretty harsh.”

I then turned to a respected news show watched a story then flicked channels again. I couldn’t believe my eyes. Here was Vianna and the whole faith and alternative healing story being tied to the stake on yet another tabloid current affairs program.

This time they were even more negative. They had a leading sceptic on. They trashed the whole concept of the mind being used for healing. They spoke to someone they introduced as a ‘real doctor who treats real patients”… as if the people who were talking about the positive effects of their healing experiences were not real people.

It got worse. Essentially, this story tore down any type of possible benefit or healing that anyone MAY have received from ANY alternative therapy or concept. In short, they were burning all faith healers and alternative concepts as if they were witches. I felt I was in a time warp. (Hello, Joan of Arc, are you still here?)

They even claimed that the 60 or so people attending the weekend course were being ripped off because no faith healing process had any ‘old school’ medical backing. We want proof, they said. Give us proof.

Yet these same TV shows will promote the heck out of the latest product from one of their network sponsors, the latest fad diet or some celebrity’s new perfume and also accept payment for stories they run.

Today I emailed Mark and his partner, Theresa, knowing how hard it is to get a story on one of these shows – but even harder to be the victim of negative reporting. They were shell shocked to say the least – but helpless to do much now it has been to air. Yet here were two non-mainstream people simply attempting to talk about an alternative therapy to a small and committed, enthusiastic audience; getting the light energy out there as best they know how.

Instead they ended up being splashed across Australia’s TV screens – twice in one night – and held up to ridicule. All because they were showcasing an alternative way of living that was outside the mainstream world.

As I said, the purpose of this story isn’t about the merits of a form of alternative healing. It is to demonstrate that the mainstream media can still twist and turn any story into the way they – and the mainstream thinking – wish it to be portrayed. In this case, demonising an alternative theory or practice, and those who choose to believe.

It left me thinking: who’s the real charlatan here? To me, it was both TV shows. My faith, however, remains – the world is awakening to such manipulation of things outside the ‘norm’. I hope that what people saw on TV last night was so obviously a misrepresentation, they will see through it. If not today, then tomorrow – or the day after. In these energies it may likely guide them TO alternative modes – of thinking, healing and beyond.

For, charlatans or not, it’s not the media healing the world. It’s our own innate faith – in ourselves.

Meanwhile, in case you are curious, here are online links to both stories:

If you’re interested, I’ve left comments open to see what you feel and think about the issue of the media falsifying and misrepresenting alternative concepts, authors and theories.

The Light Collective via Tazjima: On Being Radiance



autumn_leavesThe Light Collective: On Being Radiance, channeled through Tazjima, November 8, 2013 at bluedragonjournal.com

We are the Light Collective. Welcome to our world. You are a part of it, already, whether or not you acknowledge this as fact.

Beloved ones, we “see” your light bodies emanating radiance across the face of the planet. If you could but see yourselves as we do, you would wonder, too, at the brightness with which you glow. And this radiance will increase in the coming days, weeks and months, as you fully integrate into your bodies the energies of the recent solar eclipse and other celestial events. We tell you that the present energies support rapid growth of your consciousness moving towards full Unity consciousness.

Those who stand at the leading edge of humanity are now on the cusp of bursting into light, while fully anchored in their physical bodies. Others are following close behind. Do these human angels look different from anyone else? Not right now, but with time, their bodies will begin to emanate a soft glow that will be visible to the naked eye. This process is in store for all those who are wayshowers and will come sooner than you might imagine, given that time itself is collapsing into the eternal Now moment.

How can you move into the New World with grace and ease? Tools are available to help you focus, but it is truly a matter of learning who and what you are that will aid you in releasing all remnants of old patterning and beliefs that serve to impede your progress. If you find yourself falling into frustration, you may still be comparing your journey to that of others.

We are not suggesting that you suppress your feelings, but to look at them, feel into them and let them go. Most of all, let go of any belief that you are not moving along fast enough, for this is one sure way to slow down the movement into fully anchoring the fifth dimensional energies into your physical body. Let go of judgment and the need to compare your process to that of others. Learn to trust your intuition and inner knowing as to what is right for you, in the moment. Allow for flexibility and changes in direction, as they will come as you adjust to your own needs. The field of possibilities lies before you; reach out and select what you want to play with and put back what does not serve.

If you haven’t already, learn to quiet your thoughts and emotions by simply sitting and breathing slowly and deeply. The practice of yoga can aid in this, but is not necessary for all to do. Feel what aids you in quieting down for a while so you might breathe gently and slowly and then focus on the heart center. As your heart begins to glow, take notice of the way you feel. If there is a sudden lightening of your mood, you have begun to feel your own energy, your own special note.

By becoming aware of how you “feel” when balanced and quiet, you can reset to that same energy level when you find yourself moving out of center. In this manner, you can come to center quickly and gain a greater sense of confidence and ease in managing change and challenges.

The transitional period in which you find yourself now has been and will continue for a time to be quite challenging to some individuals. The challenges will come in many forms, some physical and other challenges both mental and emotional. Change will rule the day. It will be necessary to let go and to let go some more, as each of you is being refined down from common clay into pure gold frequency. Nothing that belonged to the 3D frequency that is stored within will be allowed to remain. The solar and cosmic energies will simply strip the incoherencies away.

Some of you are beginning to tune into the frequencies of bliss and joy; these will continue and strengthen. You will find yourselves in the midst of making adjustments in your life and refining your direction and focus, coming to greater clarity in terms of what service or gifts you can employ or offer to self and the collective.

Be willing to explore, to feel into what excites and delights and leave the rest for now. You can change your mind. There are no more limits to creativity, just what limits you set for yourself now.

Be aware that when the energies intensify there might be a reason to pull back and rest. Your bodies need time to adjust to new frequencies. You may experience body aches, fatigue, insomnia or the desire to sleep, nausea and other side effects of the high-powered energy streams now entering the atmosphere, the earth and your bodies.

Are you feeling powerful these days? Have you become aware that you are a sovereign being? If so, you may be experiencing feeling fuller and more stable in your body. It may even be a strange sensation to some of you, as many light workers have felt uncomfortable being embodied during this present lifetime, due to the heavy vibrational levels of the earth into which you were born. That earth is no longer; the planet has been raised in vibration into the lower fifth dimension. The human inhabitants of the planet have not necessarily registered that fact. Most are still clinging to third-dimensional habits and modes of acting, despite the fact that there no longer exists any foundation to support their actions.

Where are you living at the present moment? You may feel like you’re in a void. Know then that you are deep in process of integrating the energies. In a while, you will emerge and find yourself aware of things that you never consciously registered before. And there will be a new sense of knowing, just knowing things, without effort. This is an indication that you have connected fully with your soul, anchoring the energies of higher self in the heart center, whereby allowing greater access to the wisdom and knowledge contained therein.

There will be plateaus reached and then a steep climb, and yet another plateau. Ascension is an ongoing process which will never end, even when you are fully adapted and able to live in the higher frequencies at all times. It is an adventure and will be different and unique to each individual who makes the commitment to ascend in this lifetime. Recognize your unique qualities and savor the diversity that they bring to the Collective. It is a rich symphony of delights that is being prepared on this beautiful world of yours and each of you is in the process of blending and interweaving your individual light signature into the great web of Light, the golden Christic light grid that encircles the planet.

This is all for now. Our scribe has had a long day at work and would like to rest.

We love you. We adore you. We honor and watch over you. You are never alone. Call on us and we will be there, in your heart center, glowing. Feel our presence and know our love for it is yours, also. We are One.

Thank you, beloved Light Collective.

Note to reader: For a long time I have been aware of a small part inside of me that was impervious to whatever happened to the outer personality. I feel that I have always been aware of a heart connection. I just didn’t always acknowledge it or believe that it was possible. It was simply there and I was aware of it. Now, we are becoming more fully aware of our abilities, gifts and are presently reclaiming our power and personal sovereignty. I know that I feel more at ease, calmer and more balanced despite the sometimes challenging environment that I work in.

I can “tune in” quickly and pull myself out of a mood dip and even find myself slipping into being happy for no reason at all. I am certainly experiencing what it means to be light-hearted. It is a pleasant sensation and one that is welcomed after a somewhat difficult life. I hope you are feeling better about yourself, too. We all deserve love and to be loved. We are Love and are in the process of really understanding and knowing that this simple statement is quite profound and really meant for us.

I send to all many blessings, dear ones, my sisters and brothers. Namasté.

From Wes Annac's personal blog:

Understanding Spiritual Evolution – Part 4

[9Nov2013]

Written by Wes Annac for the Aquarius Paradigm, continued from Part 3

Just how much we understand, know and can feel about the spiritual realms will determine the progress we make in growing back toward them, and in regards to gaining metaphysical perception, I can say that practice makes perfect.

Practice the newfound abilities you discover, and understand that you’re not meant to perfect them instantly. Understanding that you’re a Divine being who’s coming to practice and understand your links to the higher dimensions can help you deepen your metaphysical perception immensely over a steady period of time.

Depending on the specifics of your Life path, a few short months could see you beginning to grasp many aspects of energy work and metaphysical perception, and you can take the understanding you gain and work to uplift the collective.

We each have the ability to help our collective understand the spiritual realms and the importance of disconnecting from physical distraction and connecting within to gain full-on perception of these realms. Upon deepening our level of interest and activity with the spiritual realms, we’ll perceive of them in greater ways and help the collective to do the same.

It’s been said that when our populace is opened up to the existence of the spiritual realms and the souls in them, Lightwork and other forms of interaction with the higher dimensions will be practiced actively, openly and with interest by every person.

It’s believed that we’ll all open up to our unique roles as we come to find the existence of realms beyond our conscious understanding we couldn’t of imagined, and the number of Lightworkers on this world will be in the billions.

Despite any great-sounding prediction or idea, for our world to reach the point of everyone knowing about and working with the spiritual realms, we who’ve opened up to them must work to deepen our metaphysical perception as much as possible while subsequently doing what we can to inform the collective (without overwhelming them, might I add).

It’s important to remember if attempting to “enlighten” those around you, that some simply don’t want to hear or attempt to respond to ideas that are of a paradigm far outside of their comfort zone. Some aren’t yet comfortable hearing some of the most paradigm-shattering ideals we awakening souls tend to bring to the table, and are more comfortable discussing matters related more to the physical world.

Even still, it’s been said that the entire collective must be opened up before we can gain a full-on perception of the higher dimensions, and for our ascension to come about, we must remain diligent in our efforts to spread awareness and help as many people as possible find enlightenment.

Our abilities, which we’re going to get into discussing soon, are much more extensive than we’ve come to understand.

While much of what’s expressed on this or other spirituality-oriented websites could be seen as strange, when understanding the sheer difference between the higher dimensions and the realm we exist in one will understand why the beliefs of the awakening public are so far outside of the established paradigm of thinking.

We do indeed believe wholeheartedly in what we express, as we’ve come to uncover hidden aspects of our reality and of the equally-hidden realms of full consciousness that have opened us up to paradigm-shattering truths and perceptions that we seek to spread to as many as possible.

Consciousness/Matter/Love Drive Existence

An aspect of gaining a true perception of the spiritual realms is understanding that consciousness is the driving force of existence. Ultimately, consciousness is energy and energy comprises our reality and all others beyond it.

EnergyFanatics.com discusses the Creation of our reality very well (but be warned – this snippet is a bit dense).

“When we look at frequency and vibration from the perspective of the external Creation, frequency and vibration have their differences. Frequency is the cyclic pattern of scalar waves that flash on and off. The frequency rate is determined by how fast energy units (partiki) contract and expand. (…) Partiki is made of units of conscious energy that act like the template upon which consciousness enters manifestation.

The process when energy contracts toward the neutral point is known as vibration. The process when energy expands away from the neutral point is known as oscillation. The combination of vibration and oscillation is what determines the frequency rate (cyclic pattern of scalar waves) of all things. Scalar waves are standing waves that flash on and off. This process creates energy patterns that are processed by our consciousness and DNA to create our external reality. The on and off energy pattern is very simple but yet it has infinite potential. This is the mysterious and amazing power of the intelligence of Creation.” (1)

The belief in many spiritual circles is that our reality is less dense and solid and more energy-based and changeable and that we, as the energy of consciousness, have Created our realities and continue to Create the experiences we have in every moment.

This belief is interlinked with the idea of humans as energy workers who sustain active links to the spiritual realms even when we don’t realize it, and the basis behind this belief is that we’re both constructed of and work with the energy around us that we’ve been taught to believe is solid, to Create and sustain our reality.

It’s believed that while we decide as individuals what’s going to happen in our Lives based on the choices we make, our Life paths are generally scripted in realms beyond our conscious understanding by our oversoul-consciousness who seeks to help us evolve back into the spiritual realms.

This oversoul-consciousness has been referred to as the “higher self” (2)

It’s believed that the general purpose of our existence is to learn lessons and come to rediscover ourselves as the conscious Creators of our reality, and an important key to understanding this is understanding that consciousness is everywhere and is the driving force of our reality and so many others.

Everything is Consciousness

Everything around you is constructed of conscious energy. Put quite simply, everything is consciousness.

Specifically, it’s believed that the conscious energy creating our reality is what humans have come to know as Love.

Obviously, Love has been misunderstood and dwindled on our world with romantic and emotional associations that can’t be fathomed on a scientific level, but the idea behind many spiritual beliefs is that the energy Creating our realities and the realms beyond our conscious understanding is of pure Love.

It’s believed that we grow into greater perceptions of exactly what Love is as our limited perceptions give way to expanded understandings of every facet of our existence, and we come to see Love as the driving energetic force behind our reality.

The simplest way to put it would be to say that Love is everything, and conscious co-Creation with focused intent sees us decide our destiny and the immediate experiences we’re going to have. Growing to understand that Love is everything and that we’re constructed of and can work with very changeable energy to Create our reality and eventually evolve, we’ll find ourselves uninhibited in the amount of good we can do for the planet.

Understanding that we’re not simply “meat puppets” capable of no greater perception or ability beyond the physical paradigm we’ve been convinced is the only one in existence, we can find ourselves working fruitfully for humanity on various facets of the establishing of our new paradigm and our evolution into the fifth dimension.

We can do so much to assist humanity’s spiritual evolution upon opening ourselves up to the basic idea that Love is the driving force behind our existence and that we, as this energy, are unlimited in Creating our realities and growing into greater perceptions of ourselves as it.

An ever-growing number of people in an ever-growing number of spiritual circles have opened up to this idea, and fruitful works for the higher dimensions and the evolution of humanity have resulted as we’ve all tapped in to the motivation that results from opening up to a paradigm far outside of one’s understanding and coming to see just how distorted our current paradigm is.

Even the idea that consciousness is much more than an individual’s perception brought about solely by the brain helps one to break many of the instated physical-paradigm barriers that have held us back from greater, undistorted perceptions.

One can’t believe in one’s own ability to anchor purer energy from the higher dimensions if one doesn’t know or can’t believe that such dimensions even exist.

The collective ultimately needs to be awakened to the existence of the higher dimensions, and it’s been suggested that many of those in power have known about the spiritual realms throughout the ages and have attempted to keep humanity unaware of the perceptions we can gain and the truths we can discover.
