	From Myrna Ferguson's "Great announcement for Native Americans" forum: Chief Seattle--very wise man ‎"In 1851 Seattle, chief of the Suquamish and other Indian tribes around Washington's Puget Sound, delivered what is considered to be one of the most beautiful and profound environmental statements ever made. The city of Seattle is named for the chief, whose speech was in response to a proposed treaty under which the Indians were persuaded to sell two million acres of land for $150,000." -- Buckminster Fuller in Critical Path. Chief Seattle's Thoughts How can you buy or sell the sky, the warmth of the land? The idea is strange to us. If we do not own the freshness of the air and the sparkle of the water, how can you buy them? Every part of this earth is sacred to my people. Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every clearing and humming insect is holy in the memory and experience of my people. The sap which courses through the trees carries the memories of the red man. The white man's dead forget the country of their birth when they go to walk among the stars. Our dead never forget this beautiful earth, for it is the mother of the red man. We are part of the earth and it is part of us. The perfumed flowers are our sisters; the deer, the horse, the great eagle, these are our brothers. The rocky crests, the juices in the meadows, the body heat of the pony, and man --- all belong to the same family. So, when the Great Chief in Washington sends word that he wishes to buy our land, he asks much of us. The Great Chief sends word he will reserve us a place so that we can live comfortably to ourselves. He will be our father and we will be his children. So, we will consider your offer to buy our land. But it will not be easy. For this land is sacred to us. This shining water that moves in the streams and rivers is not just water but the blood of our ancestors. If we sell you the land, you must remember that it is sacred, and you must teach your children that it is sacred and that each ghostly reflection in the clear water of the lakes tells of events and memories in the life of my people. The water's murmur is the voice of my father's father. The rivers are our brothers, they quench our thirst. The rivers carry our canoes, and feed our children. If we sell you our land, you must remember, and teach your children, that the rivers are our brothers and yours, and you must henceforth give the rivers the kindness you would give any brother. We know that the white man does not understand our ways. One portion of land is the same to him as the next, for he is a stranger who comes in the night and takes from the land whatever he needs. The earth is not his brother, but his enemy, and when he has conquered it, he moves on. He leaves his father's grave behind, and he does not care. He kidnaps the earth from his children, and he does not care. His father's grave, and his children's birthright are forgotten. He treats his mother, the earth, and his brother, the sky, as things to be bought, plundered, sold like sheep or bright beads. His appetite will devour the earth and leave behind only a desert. I do not know. Our ways are different than your ways. The sight of your cities pains the eyes of the red man. There is no quiet place in the white man's cities. No place to hear the unfurling of leaves in spring or the rustle of the insect's wings. The clatter only seems to insult the ears. And what is there to life if a man cannot hear the lonely cry of the whippoorwill or the arguments of the frogs around the pond at night? I am a red man and do not understand. The Indian prefers the soft sound of the wind darting over the face of a pond and the smell of the wind itself, cleaned by a midday rain, or scented with pinon pine. The air is precious to the red man for all things share the same breath, the beast, the tree, the man, they all share the same breath. The white man does not seem to notice the air he breathes. Like a man dying for many days he is numb to the stench. But if we sell you our land, you must remember that the air is precious to us, that the air shares its spirit with all the life it supports. The wind that gave our grandfather his first breath also receives his last sigh. And if we sell you our land, you must keep it apart and sacred as a place where even the white man can go to taste the wind that is sweetened by the meadow's flowers. So we will consider your offer to buy our land. If we decide to accept, I will make one condition - the white man must treat the beasts of this land as his brothers. I am a savage and do not understand any other way. I have seen a thousand rotting buffaloes on the prairie, left by the white man who shot them from a passing train. I am a savage and do not understand how the smoking iron horse can be made more important than the buffalo that we kill only to stay alive. What is man without the beasts? If all the beasts were gone, man would die from a great loneliness of the spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man. All things are connected. You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of our grandfathers. So that they will respect the land, tell your children that the earth is rich with the lives of our kin. Teach your children that we have taught our children that the earth is our mother. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of earth. If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves. This we know; the earth does not belong to man; man belongs to the earth. This we know. All things are connected like the blood which unites one family. All things are connected. Even the white man, whose God walks and talks with him as friend to friend, cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. We shall see. One thing we know which the white man may one day discover; our God is the same God. You may think now that you own Him as you wish to own our land; but you cannot. He is the God of man, and His compassion is equal for the red man and the white. The earth is precious to Him, and to harm the earth is to heap contempt on its creator. The whites too shall pass; perhaps sooner than all other tribes. Contaminate your bed and you will one night suffocate in your own waste. But in your perishing you will shine brightly fired by the strength of the God who brought you to this land and for some special purpose gave you dominion over this land and over the red man. That destiny is a mystery to us, for we do not understand when the buffalo are all slaughtered, the wild horses are tamed, the secret corners of the forest heavy with the scent of many men and the view of the ripe hills blotted by talking wires. Where is the thicket? Gone. Where is the eagle? Gone. The end of living and the beginning of survival. [Chief Seattle's speech was submitted by Dr. Glenn T. Olds at Alaska's Future Frontiers conference in 1979.]

	Arcturian Sacred Geometry Posted by Mary W on February 28, 2013 The Arcturians have provided us with a large range of images for meditation to produce or speed up changes within us. The images were created by John Paul Polk with Arcturian messages and meditations channeled by Jill Mara. We reproduce a few here but the entire article can be found as a page here. ARCTURUS http://love2ascend.com/?s=arcturian+symbols Sacred Geometry Arcturian Geometry We are Arcturians of 6th dimensional consciousness. We relay to you the meaning and awareness that these graphic symbols can provoke in the viewers being. Each is coded with a particular pattern that aligns with a specific frequency that is encoded in the potential of each human being. By viewing these images, and reciting the intention meditation, one may activate these frequencies within oneself. These images can be used as tools to awaken the whole self to a higher level of consciousness or inspire ascension to a more aware state of being. All aspects of the image; color, shapes, sizes of shapes and the positioning and number of each shape in the whole image has meaning to the matrix of Earth, and the human being within its sphere. The following images were created by John Paul Polk with Arcturian messages and meditations channeled by Jill Mara Manifestation Manifestation The force of creation within the three dimensional realm is awakened from this image. It activates the ability to make desires manifest in your world. It heightens creative ability and the motivation to make concepts take concrete form. Intention Meditation The desires of my soul are made manifest in my reality. Soul Purpose Soul Purpose Each person comes to incarnation with a purpose they wish to fulfill. This formation activates the inner knowing of that purpose and allows one to see the signs that will lead them to their highest intended destiny in each day. Intention Meditation My soul purpose is being revealed to me every day and I am acting upon this mission. Please go here for the larger article.

	How the Divine Mother Was “Born” Posted by Steve Beckow on March 10, 2013 Given that Mary just posted Linda Dillon’s channeling of the Divine Mother on the birth of the universe, or of the world of matter (mater, Mother), it occurs to me that you may enjoy listening to Maura O’Connor describe Rabbi Isaac Luria’s vision of the “birth” of the Divine Mother, which scientists call the birth of the universe. Luria calls the Mother “God’s first breath.” “Breath” in Latin is spiritus or Spirit. The Divine Mother is the Holy Spirit. (Actually she said once that the Holy Spirit was only a small part of herself so you can imagine how vast she is.) “Emptiness, what the kabbalists call ayin [God the Father], exists far beyond concepts or language. It is like a pure ether that can never be grasped by the mind. … Emptiness is the ultimate mystery, the secret of the Cause of causes, and it brought everything into being. … “The absolute nature of this emptiness meant that it was so pervasive, nothing elsebut it could exist. In order for life to become manifest, a seismic contraction of emptiness in on itself had to occur, creating a space in which divine emanation was possible. … “Following this immense contraction, God’s first cosmic act was the emission of a single, perfect ray of light. This beam pierced through the void and then expanded in all directions. Think of it as God’s first breath ["spirit" = "breath"] exhaling into the abyss after eons of slumber and filling it with His divinity. This is how the universe was born.” (1) I never miss a chance to explain the difference between what the ancients describe as “God the Father” (ayin) and “God the Mother” (ruah). The subject is one of the most interesting I know. By God the Father is meant stillness, emptiness, the Void. It’s still and empty in material terms but it’s very active and full in the flow of non-material love and bliss. By God the Mother, is meant activity, energy, the Creation. Hence her Sanskrit name Shakti, which means energy. God moves and the universe is born. The Mother is all movement. Both Mother and Father are God alone. God divided itself into two for the purpose of creating the world, so that he could raise “particles” (metaphorical) of himself up from ignorance of their essence to knowledge. The reason why he created this illusory game has been explained fully elsewhere. (2) Jesus signified a knowledge of this situation when he said, in response to his disciples’ request for a password: “Tell them a movement and a rest.” (3) The Mother is that movement; the Father is that rest. Of course God is neither male nor female. These distinctions were made by many ancient religions to distinguish between God as stillness and God as movement only. God has no gender.
