GLOBAL CONSCIOUSNESS PROJECT: The Silver Lining of 9/11
Submitted by Beth Lapides on Wed, 05/26/2010 - 12:45
Here on earth it is not always reported, but the raising of consciousness - the being aware of consciousness - the consciousness of consciousness - or consciousness sqaured - is The Big Thing That Is Really Going On.
The silver lining to every major disaster from The Exxon Valdez to 9/11 to Princess Diana's departure, is that they are all part of the University of Consciousness that we have all matriculated in.
Some of us are doing the work on yoga mats and meditation pillows, some in bedrooms and gardens, some out on fields and in courts, some in hospitals and soup kitchens. And there are some - whom I think of as technosseurs - doing the work in engineering labs.
GLOBAL CONSCIOUSNESS PROJECT is run by a smarty pants Princeton prof (formerly part of the now-closed PEAR - Princeton Engineering Anomilies Research) and the good people over at the Center for Noetics. Through their network of EGGs (their name for Random Event Generators) they're able to track variations in Global Consciousness - and even more basically - to actually prove that a global consciousness exists.

The Chant to Remove All Negativity

Actually I think of it as the Chant to Remove 88% of All Negativity.
It's in Tamil and I learned it from Siva Baba by listening and singing along over and over and over. And it really does make me feel a lot better.
Let's see how it works over the holidays!
100% Happy 88% of the Time

WHY ONLY 88%?
Anyone that tells you it’s possible to be 100% happy 100% of the time is conning you. America has to get over our 100%ism. We don’t even know where 100% of the matter in the universe is!
Maybe it’s because we're so young, or because we come from Puritans or because we are apple pie people. A pie makes it look like there is a 100% to divide up. And we love our pie charts. We love our pies!
America is 100% all the way! But trying to be 100% happy is setting yourself up for failure, which makes you more unhappy, which sends you into a downward spiral.
100%ism leads to pyramid schemes. My pyramid scheme is a little different. It actually involves learning about the pyramids. And then some!
