The first type is the deep state, which chose decades ago to precipitate World War III, reduce the population to a docile 500 million slaves, and assume full-spectrum dominance over the planet. (1) The second is the authoritarian culture which enforces a […]
Why do people hate? What are they seeking? Where do they end up as a result of hating and using violence against others? In 2015 and 2017, the Divine Mother addressed the subjects and I repost that discussion as being very germane today. “Transcript of the Divine Mother: Density is Unloving Emotion; Love is Lightness […]
As we look within, and “clean” our selves of everything not of love, we are witness to the same happening without. As within so without. Helping us be aware of what is happening on planet, observing with compassion, holding the highest vision for the highest good for each of us, Collective Evolution is posting revealing […]
I personally don’t believe the charges being leveled against President Obama. I think it’ll be found that the same people who neutralized him as President are now laying their own crimes at his doorstep. Meanwhile I like the modelling he does here, in a video that Kathleen brought to my attention. Michael once said: “Leadership […]

I’d like to leave memes behind for the moment and look more deeply at the worldview we call “patriarchy.” Patriarchy is one of a number of perspectives that arise from egocentrism – the view that “I” am what’s most important in any one situation. Ethnocentrism, temperocentrism, and anthropocentrism are examples of its extensions into ethnic […]
It isn’t just Rep. Cummings that stirred my heart last week. (1) It was also the stands that two Canadian Members of Parliament and one provincial civil servant have taken towards maintaining respect for the rule of law. I have to say I don’t follow Canadian politics any more than I do any other country’s. […]
The next day I was still exploring determination in my journal … when suddenly the penny dropped. We pick up the thread. I’m not talking about a goosestepping, maniacal, ego-driven determination to command others, etc. I’m talking about the resuscitation of our ability to stand on our own word, on our own two feet, and […]
