Jesus Fresco Artist 'Asking For Royalties'

A pensioner who horrified the congregation of her local church in Spain with a disastrous attempt to restore a fresco of Jesus, has reportedly struck again.

According to Spanish website elcorreo.com , 81-year-old Cecilia Gimenez has demanded royalties for her handiwork, after the Sanctuary of Mercy church decided to charge visitors to see the painting.

Jesus Fresco Artist 'Asking For Royalties'

The decision apparently angered Ms Gimenez, who believed she should be rewarded for her attempt to restore Ecce Homo to its original state, after the painting began to peel.

The fresco, originally by Elijah Garcia Martinez, had been admired in the church in the northern city of Zaragoza for 120 years.

When Ms Gimenez's restoration tragedy became public it caused a sensation. Pictures of her work were published in newspapers around the world, including Iran, China and the Virgin Islands.
Tourists and visitors eager to see the famous fresco soon flocked to the church, which then began charging for admission.

According to reports, the church collected 2,000 euros in the first four days.

Ms Gimenez is said to have become a recluse after news of her astonishing art skills became public. Her supporters have even set up a Facebook fan page for her.

"For all the fans of Cecilia Gimenez, who noticed that an oil painting of Jesus Christ on the wall of her local church near Zaragoza was deteriorating and decided to take it upon herself to fix the 120-year-old fresco," it says.

But after noticing the fresco had succumbed to damp and much of the paint had peeled from the plaster, the pensioner, in her 80s, embarked on a secret mission to restore 'Ecce Homo' (Behold The Man) to its former glory.

When the artwork was revealed, though, the original depiction of Jesus was unrecognisable.

To make matters worse, the church had secured a sizeable donation from the granddaughter of the artist to professionally restore the fresco only weeks before.

A spokesmen for the church in Zaragoza said: "The value of the original work was not very high but it was more of a sentimental value.

"The lady, who is in her 80s, apparently considers herself to be an artist. She acted without authorisation from anyone.

"The church is always open because many people visit and although there is a guard, no one realised what she was doing until she had finished."

The woman's handiwork is being examined by art experts to see if the painting can be saved.

Wine maker Bodegas Ruberte have even launched an Ecce Homo vintage to cash-in on the story.

A statement on their website said: "Some works remain unchanged over the years. Others, such as Ecce Homo, are interpreted to write a new chapter in its history.

"A story that is part of the land of Garnacha, and that inspires the creation of a wine, whose freshness and boldness combined with more traditional processes to reveal the pleasure that newfound taste".

A group of painters calling themselves Wall People have set-up a wall in honour of Ms Gimenez's work where fans can post pictures and postcards of her fresco.

Spanish graffiti artists The Graffiti Company have also paid tribute to Ms Gimenez by creating a mural depicting her alongside her Ecce Homo artwork.

The Santi Spiritus Hospital Foundation, the owner of the church, has reportedly instructed a solicitor to handle Ms Gimenez's remuneration demand.

Meteor 'Fireball' Lights Up Sky Across UK

http://youtu.be/b8LDL5Ri_84

People across the UK have reported seeing a large meteor shooting across the night sky.
It was seen breaking up into pieces last night, with sightings reported across northern England, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Hundreds of people took to Twitter to report the sightings, posting photos and video.
Many people described seeing a bright fireball moving across the sky with a large tail.
The Kielder Observatory also reported the sighting of a "huge fireball" travelling from north to south over Northumberland at 9.41pm.
It posted on Twitter: "Of 30 years observing the sky, fireball best thing I have ever seen period."
But there was some suggestion the object could have been space junk which burned up as it re-entered the atmosphere.
Jodrell Bank Observatory tweeted: "No real consensus on whether last night's spectacular fireball was a space rock burning up or space junk (bit of spacecraft)."
Sightings of the suspected meteorite sparked a flurry of 999 calls from worried members of the public in Scotland.
Concerned callers from Airdrie to Arbroath likened the lights to flares, fireworks and even a plane crash.
Coastguard and police forces were inundated with reports from around 11pm on Friday night.
A spokesman for Forth Coastguard said: "From talking to other stations and to the RAF it's almost certainly meteorite activity.
"Calls came in from all over the place, thick and fast. We've had people report possible plane crashes, and others the weirdest fireworks they've ever seen.
"Folk just haven't known how to describe what they've seen. It's quite extraordinary."
Meteors, which are sometimes called shooting stars, are rocks which burn and light up on contact with Earth's atmosphere.

Iron Man 'carved from meteorite'

A mysterious Buddhist statue with a history that sounds like an Indiana Jones movie plot has extraterrestrial origins, researchers have discovered.

The 1,000-year-old artefact, stolen from Tibet by Nazi scientists in 1938, is carved from a meteorite.

Weighing 22lb, the statue known as the Iron Man is believed to portray Vaisravana, one of the Four Heavenly Kings in Buddhist mythology.

A large swastika in the centre of the 24 centimetre-tall figure may have enticed the German expedition leaders, who were supported by Nazi SS chief Heinrich Himmler. Swastikas decorate many Buddhist and Hindu statues. The ancient symbol was adopted by the Nazis, who modified it into a mirror-image form. Himmler believed the origins of the Aryan race could be found in Tibet.

The German expedition team, consisting of SS members, was headed by zoologist and ethnologist Ernst Schafer.

Precisely how the statue was found is unclear, but after being transported to Germany it became part of a private collection in Munich. Scientists were only able to study it after an auction in 2007.

Experts led by Dr Elmar Buchner, from the University of Stuttgart, analysed samples of the figure and found it was made of ataxite - a rare class of iron meteorite.

"The statue was chiselled from a fragment of the Chinga meteorite which crashed into the border areas between Mongolia and Siberia about 15,000 years ago," Dr Buchner said. "While the first debris was officially discovered in 1913 by gold prospectors, we believe that this individual meteorite fragment was collected many centuries before."

Details of the analysis are published in the journal Meteoritics and Planetary Science.

"The Iron Man statue is the only known illustration of a human figure to be carved into a meteorite, which means we have nothing to compare it to when assessing value," Dr Buchner said. "Its origins alone may value it at 20,000 dollars (£12,400). However, if our estimation of its age is correct and it is nearly 1,000 years old, it could be invaluable."

A barely visible path, wanders through the dark and treacherous woods.  A traveller walking this path gets weary and sad as the path is not easy to walk.  It wanders seemingly forever; up a very steep mountain.  Many travellers give up and turn back to an easier path, yet many still try to reach the top of the mountain.

The woods are so dense that the travellers can’t see the top of the mountain; they can only see a little part of where they’re going, and sometimes the path almost disappear.  Many a traveller has gotten lost on this path, wandering the woods, for a long time before finding it again.

On this path there is a stream, this stream flow from the top of the mountain.  The snow-capped peak feeds it with sweet tasting water, which soothes the aches, pains and tiredness of the weary travellers.  Beyond the stream the woods thins and the travellers are able to see more clearly, and the sun breaks through the denseness of the woods, giving the travellers hope, and lifting their spirits.

 In this stream lay a stepping stone.  Well placed in the centre of the stream, revelling in the flow of the stream, listening to the song of the water against its sides.  Singing with the song of the stream; rejoicing in the knowing that it has a purpose.  It tirelessly stood strong, so that each traveller had a steady place to step on as they pass over the stream to continue on their path.  Some would sit down on the stone, sharing their stories with the stone, and rest for a while before moving on.  The stone patiently listened lending them its strength and the essence of the stream, so that they can walk once more.

Year after year the stone did its work with joy, yet slowly more travellers came, and the stream did not wash the mud left by their feet from the rock, as fast as it had before.  Slowly the stone started to wonder at the reason it was there.  Why it would lie there, to be stepped on to help the travellers with its steady foundation.  Every day the stone watched the travellers pass, and with time every step from the travellers began to hurt, the mud from their feet grinding into its surface scratching it, leaving marks on the stone.

The travellers praised the stream for its service, and beauty, before moving on.  None of them ever realising that the stone was also of service to them.  If the stone was not there they would not have been able to step over the stream, keeping their feet dry.  As the path is not completed yet, and walking it with wet feet will cause them pain.

Sadness grew in the heart of the stone, waking in it a yearning to not be what it is. To abandon its purpose; as its purpose is not needed.  Slowly using the flow of the stream and the weight of the travellers as they stepped on it; the stone started to shift, loosening the foundation it rested on and one night a storm raged increasing the flow of the stream, the stone succeeded.  The rushing water rolled the stone further downstream away from the path, leaving its place empty.

As the storm subsided, the calm returned to the stream and it flowed steady again.  Yet the place of the stone was empty and the song of the stream changed, and it lost the way it danced around the stone, caressing it.  The water spirits dancing on the flow of the water, felt the change and it saddened them.  They missed the stone, its song and its steady strength.

Still the travellers came, they stopped at the stream, and there was no stepping stone to help them across.  They had to walk through the stream, getting their feet wet.  The flow from the stream washed sand into their shoes, grinding at their feet, as they continued on their way.

Time passed and the stone felt relieved to be away from the stepping feet.  The stream washed it clean from the mud the travellers left behind.  Yet the sadness stayed in the heart of the stone, but it felt that no-one would miss it.

Two men came walking down the mountain, their white hair and beards gleaming in the filtering sunlight, their white robes crisp and clean.  As their reached the stream, the one called Seni asked the other “Where did the stepping stone go.”  The one called Eli answered: “It seem to have shifted from its place, let us search downstream.”

“A storm has come and clouded the heart of the stone, it cried out in pain as it rolled away from where it belong.” The spirits sang.  “Return to us what belong, so that we can sing again” the stream whispered.

The two men walked down the stream searching for the stone.  “Here!” called Eli.  They lifted the stone form the stream and placed it on the shore.

“Let’s place it back where it belong!” said Seni

“NO!” said the stone angrily.

“Why have you left the place you belong, dear stone?” asked Seni.

“Because the belonging hurt, and none see the service lend to them.  Why stay, when none care about the strength lend them, the rest given or the comfort so they can walk further, with no grinding wet sand in their shoes. The travellers praise all they can see, yet they never see the foundation lend to them. Never realise that what they received resting on a stone, touch them in ways they can’t see!  Do not place me back, where there is no appreciation for who I am!” said the stone in a sad and angry voice.

“We came to find you, as your place is empty, the stream’s song changed when you left, the water spirits can’t dance in the ripples created by your presence, it made them all sad.  Many travellers passed through the stream and had to be helped as their feet were bleeding and they could not walk, because you were not there to lend them a way to cross the stream.  The strength you so selflessly shared, and the way you listen to their stories, is needed.  You have to return to where you belong, without you, the place you belong... are empty, and it affect many things.” Seni said.

“How can this be true…” mumbled the stone not all that sure it wants to believe the ones that came to fetch it.

“It is true, let us show you.” Eli said.

They picked up the stepping stone and carried it back to where it belongs and placed it on the shore.  The stone heard the song of the stream, a sad song felt the change in the energy.

“Why have you left? We need you, can’t you hear that without you my song is not the same?” the stream sang.

“Bring us your ripples Stepping stone so we can dance again, so we can find the joy you bring to our existence.” The water spirits sang, sadly.

“You can place another stone there, it need not be me.  Every stone can be replaced.” The stone said stubbornly.

“Every stone have a specific value; size and balance, the soul of each and every stone are different.  Your soul and the way you change the song of this part of the stream is needed, as it affect the flow of the stream lower down.  All things hold energy and in the way your soul flow here, lend its strength to the energy of the area, and to the rest this part gives to each traveller.  This is what gives the travellers the strength they need and the fortification they need to continue their path.” Eli said softly.

“Since this mountain was created and this stream flowed this stone has been here, lending to all travellers this service.  In return the travellers leave upon it their mud, which grinds and cause it harm, and from them are taken a lot of their pain as they rest.   A stone is strong, but sometimes it needs to be washed with the waters of love and appreciation.  It also needs what is given, so that it can continue to be who it is.” Replied the stone sadly.

Just then a traveller stumbled to the stream, his feet bleeding, carrying his shoes. “I am so happy you found a stepping stone.  I came back to look for a stone to place here, as the pain crossing this stream is causing, should be prevented.  Let me help you place it so that others that come past here, will have the benefit of crossing over it.  In this way they will not have to suffer the pain I am feeling, as this stone can prevent it from happening to others!” The traveller mentioned.

Seni and Eli looked at the stone, “Do you see how much your presence affect here?”

“Yes, yet it does not sooth the pain it causes.” the stone whisper sadly. “Being a stone, bring the need to be strong, no matter the consequences thereof.  No matter what is thrown at it, it has to be what it is, a stepping stone, each has their place, where they bring to others the best of who they are, even if none can see, or appreciate what is done for them.  The stepping stone need to be true to itself and its purpose.”

The three people placed the stone where it belong making sure that it rest on a steady base.  As they step out of the stream, they heard the song of the river change, saw the joy of the water spirit return as they danced in the ripples cause by the flow of the stream.  All felt the energy change, to what it was before.

The stepping stone felt the caress of the stream, heard her song, a song it has heard since the time it was created.  Felt the joy of the water spirits, and sighed.

Eli and Seni turned to leave, “We will walk with you traveller”, they offered.

“No, I think I will sit on this stepping stone for a while, placing my feet in the healing ripples of the stream.  The energy here is soothing, I will continue when I feel stronger.” He replied.

The others smiled, and returned up the path to the top of the mountain.

As the Stepping stone listened to the story of the traveller, it contemplated all that happened.  In all things there is a place each belong, a place where who we are serve all there is the best.  At times the mud of existence cover our vision, and a storm is needed to wash us clean so we can see, just how much we are worth, being who we are.   Be all you are in yourself, in service of all there is.  No matter whom you are, even a humble stepping stone.  Sometimes who we are can’t be understood by others, as they are not a stepping stone, so they can not appreciate the being of a stepping stone. 

Maybe we need to learn to show more understanding and appreciation to those that are the stepping stones in our life, those that are there to listen, and lend their strength to us in our need.  Never look down on the stepping stones that gave you more than you realised in a time you needed it.

Barbara-Lynn Freed: The Mayan Prophecy and Our Shift in Consciousness

Sep 29

Posted by Wes Annac

Thanks to: http://soundofheart.org/galacticfreepress/content/mayan-prophecy-and-our-shift-consciousness

By Barbara Lynn-Freed | Waking Times

–

According to the Maya, the December 21, 2012 Sunrise marks the first time in 26,000 years that our Sun, on its ecliptic path, will be in conjunction with the intersection of the Milky Way at the Galactic Center. This alignment forms a cosmic cross, and is considered by the Maya to be an embodiment of the Tree of Life, a sacred tree that is remembered globally in all spiritual traditions.

The Maya also say that this alignment opens a portal that allows cosmic energies to flow through the earth, purifying her and all her inhabitants, and raising everything to a higher vibration. The Maya call this the beginning of the Fifth Sun or the next World Age. They say that this Fifth Sun will be dominated by the influx of Stellar energies, the element of Ether, and changes in the fabric of time.

However, like in all astrological phenomena, things don’t just happen, there is always a period of transition before and after an occurrence. And in this case the lead-time has been building for approximately 25 years and creating a subtle, though powerful, shift in our consciousness and vibration.

There have been many Planetary Configurations during those 25 years that have helped this shift to develop. However, since this article is limited in scope, I have selected a few that are either occurring now or will be occurring in the near future, which may help you to understand what’s going on.

The New and Full Moons are extremely important, as they give us a huge download of Stellar energy every month that helps initiate us into this shift. In the last few months, their themes have worked with releasing duality and our old emotional patterns, while helping us to move forward by offering new perceptions of reality.

In February 2012, Neptune moved into Pisces (the sign that it rules) and will be there for the next fourteen years. From this we should expect to see the advancement of spiritual awareness, providing more peace in the world, along with many of us developing clairvoyant faculties.

Although Pluto/Uranus remain square to each other until 2015, this year they formed two exact squares on June 24th and September 19th. Squares denote tension and challenge, and this configuration is bringing up our core issues to be healed. Pluto is the planet that tears everything down first, and then builds something new from its ashes of destruction. Uranus is a planet that needs unbridled freedom to initiate the new.

Together, Pluto and Uranus are associated with cultural upheaval and change. It’s a time to know how you want to transform your life to move forward. The main message here is go with the flow and don’t get caught in the undertow. In this way we can ride the wave instead of feeling submerged in fear or resistance.

An Extremely Rare Mutual Reception between Saturn in Scorpio and Pluto in Capricorn forms when Saturn enters Scorpio on October 5th and continues until Christmas Eve 2014. A Mutual Reception means that two planets are in each other’s ruling signs, which indicates challenge that must be overcome before success is accomplished.

The challenge denoted here focuses on power struggles between people and government to gain authority, and further unrest in the global economy. However, once these energies are balanced, there is the promise of reorganization of financial structures and government that serves humanity instead of serving itself.

And finally on Winter Solstice 2012 we have an astrological configuration called a Yod, or sometimes named “The Finger of God or Destiny.” A Yod is comprised of two quincunxes (difficult & awkward aspects) and a sextile (easy flowing aspect), however in a Yod, the difficulties of the quincunxes are transformed into something special. In this case, the Exact configuration of Dec. 21st, 2012 has Pluto at 9 degrees Capricorn and Saturn at 9 degrees Scorpio sextile to each other, while both are quincunx to Jupiter at 9 degrees Gemini. Jupiter is the Apex planet or focal point for these energies.

Generally speaking, a Yod entails a choice of two roads, yet not knowing where either one will take you. Following instinct, we simply find ourselves veering off onto another path and changing the course of our lives. Although undefined, the new direction has actually been gathering strength for many years. And after activating the Yod, you soon realize that you have a hidden knowledge of how to proceed and be successful.

So it looks like humanity will be able to act on transforming and restructuring its philosophy of life and move forward in a new direction.

Coupled with the Pluto/Saturn mutual reception, the Yod of 2012’s Winter Solstice alludes to a time when we have the power to regenerate ourselves and the world from unrest and chaos through discipline and hard work, while we learn to look at situations realistically, release our fears and dogmatic attitudes, and move toward new opportunities. This reflects the Mayan prophecy of a time for awakening and moving into a higher state of consciousness.

Although the Sun’s conjunction with our Galactic Center has been widely publicized, most do not know that the Mayan elders and day keepers also say that on the Winter Solstice 2012, our Sun will be in exact alignment with the Center of the Universe.

Agreeing with the ancient Vedic seers, the Maya feel there exists a massive energetic network that travels throughout the universe and transforms every 13,000 years. Although, masculine Solar rays from our Sun, and feminine rays from our Galaxy’s Core are our primary connections to this network, we also receive neutral rays from the Universe via our Galaxy’s Center. According to the Maya, this is a time of transformation for this stellar network.

These ideas are also supported by the decrease of both the Earth’s magnetic shielding and our Sun’s Solar Wind, an idea that is reflected in NASA’s 2008 report on the increase of “Space Weather” due to the instability of the Earth’s magnetic shield. NASA also states that the solar windshield that protects us from stellar radiation has been decreasing since the 1990’s.

As a result of these phenomena NASA warned that we should expect much stronger geomagnetic storms in the future. With the increase in Stellar Light coming to the Earth in the form of cosmic and galactic radiation, our planet’s vibrations are moving into a higher frequency, thus catalyzing an evolutionary shift with all life on Earth.

So what are these evolutionary implications? With the element of Ether (Spirit) coming into focus during the Fifth Sun, there will be an upliftment of everyone’s energy, enabling us to transform darkness into Light.

As this shift inevitably raises your consciousness, you will learn to live life, as Spirit, without separation between the two, become closer to nature, become sustainable in all facets of your life, and change your perceptions, allowing you to see the sacredness of all life.

Releasing emotional conflict will also become a priority, as well as, taking full responsibility for all of our actions and non-actions. As we change, we will become more Heart Centered, learn from a place of joy, release the drama from our life experience, and feel unconditional love, compassion and forgiveness for ourselves and humanity.

And we will also sense a dimensional shift of time and space. Although material form will still persist, our rigid belief system of linear time will be transformed to living in the present moment. Here, our conditional perceptions, judgments and reactions will shift to a more enlightened approach, by becoming an observer of life, instead of being emotionally attached to our dramas with people, situations and events.

We will achieve a sense of ease, wondrous possibility and positive thinking. As our higher consciousness develops we will also choose to respond to our environment, instead of reacting to it.

By allowing the new Light frequencies of this shift in consciousness to clear away your old emotional debris and thought patterns, you will be transformed into a new State of Being that will magnetize people, opportunities and circumstances that mirror your new perceptions.

A Hathor Planetary Message - through Tom Kenyon

A Hathor Planetary Message Through Tom Kenyon

The Aethos and Non-dual States of Consciousness A Hathor Planetary Message Through Tom Kenyon In this message we wish to discuss some of the significant relationships between manifest reality and non-dual states of consciousness.   Mind and Consciousness Before we proceed, however, we would like to draw a distinction between the terms consciousness and mind as we use the words. For us consciousness is transcendent to all phenomena and is not bound by neurological activity in your nervous system. Furthermore, consciousness is transcendent to both time and space, as you perceive them. And it is through the vehicle of your consciousness that you can travel through energetic vortices that lead outside the constraints of embodied existence. Mind, as we use the term, refers to the sensory, mental and emotional experiences you have as a result of distinct changes in your nervous system. Indeed, as you read these words, you are creating their meaning through the agency of your physical brain and nervous system.  You are creating the meaning of our words through the window of your mind, but this window is both created and constrained by the limitations of your nervous system. Our messages are linguistically coded, and at various locations in the syntax (order) of our communications there are vortices—wormholes—through which you can temporarily transcend your mind and enter into the infinite mystery of consciousness.   How We View Higher Dimensions In our experience of ourselves, we exist within multiple dimensions of consciousness, and depending upon our level of personal evolution we manifest in the fourth through the twelfth dimensions. Through the ninth dimension we can alternate between our anthropomorphic form, which is humanlike in appearance, or our light body. As we shift into the 10th dimension all connections to our anthropomorphic form dissolve. We become, for all intents and purposes, geometric light forms. As we progress in our own personal evolution we can express ourselves through the 10th, 11th and 12th dimensions in a multitude of ways. Each progression upward in consciousness brings with it a greater understanding of the interconnectedness of all beings and all aspects of the cosmos. The odd paradox of existence becomes clearly apparent as we enter into the 10th Dimension.   Interconnectedness and Non-duality We are sharing this information because something similar occurs for you as you transit into the higher dimensions of your own being. In the 10th through the 12th Dimensions, awareness of interconnectedness expands, as does an awareness of non-duality—the Mother of All Things. This is, indeed, the paradox of consciousness we mentioned earlier, and it is one that has been addressed by some of your Perennial Philosophies. For us, the attainment of non-duality is not the final destination but rather a cantilever to greater mastery and an understanding of how to create benevolent outcomes.   How We View Non-duality In a non-dual state of consciousness we, like you, experience a disappearance of opposition. In non-dual states of consciousness, duality—as it is experienced in relative existence—disappears, and we enter into a great sense of centered awareness and serenity. In the deepest states of non-duality there is only pure consciousness experiencing itself. It is important to realize that non-dual states of consciousness are relative to the perceiver. Thus, if you experience non-duality through your heart chakra, you may very well experience impersonal love—a deep sense of cosmic connection. Indeed, in this state of union between non-duality and the heart, you become infatuated, and for all intents and purposes, you fall in love with the cosmos. And in that paradox of the heart, you become the Beloved, and everything you see and witness is the Beloved as well. While this is a beautiful state of consciousness, it is not pure non-duality. As you move upward into the higher chakras experiences of non-duality change. When you reside in the crown chakra, non-duality is experienced in its pure form—pure consciousness aware of itself. There is no sense of a personal self in these higher dimensions of non-duality. The paradox of creation is that it unfolds from the purest states of non-duality into the most polarized states of existence. Thus, in your consciousness are the two seemingly conflicting states of relative existence (i.e., your embodied life in time and space) and non-dual states of consciousness in which all polarities and conflicts disappear. Our perspective, as mentioned earlier, is that non-dual states of consciousness are cantilevers to greater mastery of creation and not the end point or the goal of evolution.   Interconnectedness vs. Oneness It is here we feel it necessary to discuss an important distinction between interconnectedness and the concept of “oneness.” We do not view these two terms interchangeably. There are many different definitions of “oneness” upon the Earth, and so it is not possible to address all the subtleties and distinctions. We will instead turn our attention to what we consider to be the fundamental distinction. Some persons believe that interconnectedness is the same as “oneness” and that as you enter higher states of consciousness and higher dimensions of being, you merge into a blob of light, in which all distinctions disappear. This is not our view. Interconnection or interconnectedness is the recognition that all beings and all aspects of the cosmos are interrelated and at the same time beings have unique differences. These differences are fascinating and unique. Sometimes they are annoying, and sometimes they are enriching. But these differences are part of the tapestry of manifest reality, and they are not superfluous.  One of the difficulties we see with the concept of “oneness,” as currently propagated by some persons in the New Age and Personal Growth communities, is that the unique differences between people are denigrated and somehow because everything is “one,” appropriate energetic boundaries between individuals can be, and often are, disregarded. Furthermore, some individuals use this belief system (i.e., “oneness”) as an excuse to avoid personal accountability and responsibility. In our experience of ourselves through all dimensions we remain unique individuals, and the higher dimensions of our being do not obliterate our uniqueness but rather present greater opportunities for creation.    The Aethos We now wish to share with you a means to access one of our greatest cultural treasures, what we call the Aethos (pronounced, AH-EE-THOS). The Aethos is a bandwidth of consciousness anchored in pure non-duality. When a Hathor enters into the 10th Dimension there are many opportunities and ways of manifesting. Some of us choose to temporarily join a community of vibration. This community consists of individual Hathors in the 10th, 11th and 12th Dimensions. These individuals enter into non-duality by their own volition and choose to remain, for a period of time, in this vibration of consciousness for the benefit of other beings. Most individuals remain temporarily in the Aethos, while a few show no signs of leaving. When a being enters into the Aethos all personal distinctions are set aside. A being that is in the Aethos has no name. All personal identity has been replaced by total immersion into non-duality. These beings “hold” this vibration of non-duality for the benefit of others because non-duality is the Mother of All Things and the underlying fabric of all existence. To be in the presence of an Aethos is to be raised upward into non-duality. Your experience of being with an Aethos will differ from another’s experience, based upon your own level of evolution and the issues in duality that you are facing. But regardless of how complex or difficult your personal issues may be, being in the presence of an Aethos will elevate you, and that is why we are sharing this information at this time. For some of you who are highly advanced, simply hearing the name Aethos, and understanding its non-dual nature, will be enough for you to move into communion with non-duality through this means. Many people, however, would find such a path, or method, intrinsically difficult. And so we are offering a sound treasure to assist you. This Sound Meditation is an analog of the light realms where the Aethos resides. The Aethos emits vibrations of light and these vibrations can be stepped down into the audible range of human hearing. Thus, what you will be hearing, when you listen to The Aethos Sound Meditation, is a translation of light into sound. It is the harmonic essence of the Aethos as it manifests in the 10th Dimension. We suggest you experiment with listening to this unique sound treasure in various ways. The first way would be to listen to it with your full attention on the sound. Allow the sound to be the primary focus of your attention, and when your mind wanders bring it back to the sound. The second way to listen would be with your focus of attention on your heart chakra in the center of your chest. Then listen to it with awareness in your throat chakra. Next, listen to it with your focus of attention in your Third Eye (Ajna), located between your eyes at the bridge of your nose. And then, finally, listen to The Aethos Sound Meditation with your attention in your crown chakra at the top of your head. Feel and sense the differences that arise when you listen to The Aethos Sound Meditation from these various chakras. Most of you will find that it feels more natural to listen to The Aethos Sound Meditation with your focus of attention in one of your chakras. This chakra is the focus we suggest you use when listening, in preparation for the sound meditation that will occur during the upcoming World Meditation.   The Evolutionary Intelligence Test From our perspective one of the signatures of an evolved consciousness is the recognition of interconnectedness. This recognition is an evolutionary intelligence test and your species is in the middle of it. Humanity cannot continue to live, collectively, as it has done—living in the delusion that humans can plunder the Earth with no consequence to the Earth, to its myriad life forms or to humanity itself.   The World Meditation The goal of the World Meditation is to add a vibrational quality to the emotional atmosphere of your planet. You have an inherent right to do so because you are embodied in time and space, and because you are living temporarily upon this Earth. As a resident of this planet, you have a right to encourage benevolent outcomes. The specific purpose of this World Meditation is to accelerate the collective human recognition of interconnectedness and a passage from the miasmas and delusions of humanity’s collective history into a new constellation of cultural beliefs that will serve to unfold humanity’s higher destiny. This will be done through the agency of your imagination—the power of your will and intention—joined with the creative potentials that reside in non-dual states of consciousness. The date and time of this World Meditation will be November 4^th between 3:00 and 4:00 PM PST (Pacific Standard Time). While the meditation will be global, the nexus point of the energetic will be in Seattle, Washington during the final hour of a Hathor Intensive we are calling The Art of Seeding New Realities. For the duration of this meditation, the Aethos will enter into the space that will be created by those attending the Intensive. And from this nexus point, the Aethos will extend its energetic throughout the world to all those who have chosen to join us in this undertaking (The World Meditation). It does not matter where on Earth you are physically located. Furthermore, while the formal meditation in Seattle will begin at 3:00 PM and end at 4:00 PM, the energetic generated by the Aethos will continue for twenty-five hours. In other words, the Aethos will continue to emanate its energetic from the 10^th dimension to those individuals who have chosen to participate in the World Meditation from November 4^th 2012 at 3:00 PM PST to November 5^th 2012 at 4:00 PM PST. You can join the World Meditation anytime during this twenty-five hour period. In point of fact, you can also enter into this specific meditation whenever you wish to “broadcast” the thought form of interconnectedness to humanity. As you collectively enter the more intensive phases of planetary transformation, those of you attuned to the reality of interconnectedness will “know” when it is propitious to send this thought form to your fellow humans through the agency of this particular meditation. When undertaking this meditation, it is important to understand that you are not directly affecting the outcome of events, but rather you are “broadcasting” a benevolent thought form to the human collective. What individual humans choose to do, or not do, in relation to the realization of interconnectedness, however, is in the sovereign providence of each individual. Furthermore, the Aethos does not and is, in fact, incapable of intervening into human consciousness. A human person must choose to enter into a vibratory alignment with the Aethos. In other words, the Aethos does not take actions. It simply emanates its nature, which is non-dual consciousness.   The Actual Meditation During the meditation we suggest you begin by listening to The Aethos Sound Meditation for thirty minutes. During this phase, your focus of attention is in your heart chakra unless you intuitively sense that it would be better for you to place your attention in another chakra. After listening to the Aethos Sound Meditation, simply be in silence with your awareness in your heart chakra (or another chakra you have chosen to work with). After a minute or so of focusing in your chosen chakra, imagine that some part of you (i.e. your KA or “etheric double”) rises above you wherever you are physically located on the Earth. Imagine and sense that this second you, which looks exactly like the physical you, floats to a position sixty miles above the planet, where you join hands with others all across the Earth who have joined in the meditation. This joining of hands is a symbolic representation of the thought form we are calling “interconnectedness.” This is the recognition and the acknowledgement that all humanity is interconnected and that this interconnectedness exists simultaneously along side the unique differences of all individuals. The one you may be joining hands with could very well live in a far distant area of the Earth from you. He or she may have a different view of reality. He or she may follow a different religion than you or follow no religion at all. The person you are holding hands with may be facing challenges very different than those you are facing, due to his or her location on the Earth and the culture he or she must conform to. And yet in spite of all these differences you are interconnected. Joining you in this sea of interconnectedness will be the Devic kingdoms, the spirits of the Earth, the elementals, and the myriad life forms upon your Earth, as well as the Earth herself. For those of you who are aware of multiple dimensions you may very well experience a joining with intergalactic intelligences as well as with cosmic bodies, including the Sun and the Central Sun—the black hole that forms the center of your galaxy. We realize that some of you reading this are so disheartened by the quality and the state of humanity you may find it difficult, if not impossible, to join hands with fellow humans. If you are one of these persons we suggest you join hands with the nature spirits, and you will, by this action, be adding to the potency of the transformation.   Preparation For The World Meditation If you choose to join us in the World Meditation, we ask that you begin to work with The Aethos Sound Meditation on a regular basis. The purpose of this preparatory work is so that you become familiar with the states of consciousness produced in you by the Aethos. If you are dealing with difficult issues in your life, we suggest you listen to The Aethos Sound Meditation at least once a day. This is to assist you to move into a different state of consciousness, and from this perspective your issues will decrease and/or your ability to deal with them will increase. The net result of this is that you will be elevated, and we need as many elevated individuals as possible to join the World Meditation. Let us put this another way…if you are riddled with personal toxicity, work with The Aethos Sound Meditation every day, first for your own benefit and, secondly, for the world sangha (community). You are, by the way, welcome to listen to The Aethos Sound Meditation and use it as a personal transformational tool even if you do not plan to join the World Meditation.   The Aethos Sound Meditation: Final Reflections It is with pleasure and great expectation that we present to you The Aethos Sound Meditation. We trust that it will bring you a sense of serenity and a greater capacity to deal with the chaotic events of your world. It is also our expectation that the Aethos will open a path to your own non-duality, and that, as a manifest creator-being, you will bring the two together—the uniqueness of your life and the power of non-duality. May this union be a boon to you and to all your relations. The Hathors September 20, 2012

I knelt at the feet of the Master – when once in Heaven I Lived:

Channelled through Pat Grabham.

I knelt at the feet of the Master, when once in Heaven I lived;  for I was a boy, not more than nine, and how we listened and indeed loved, all those stories he told.  For he went back into the past, those very early days, and also ahead to the future – delightful stories, so we were told, but they were you know all true, which was the joy of them all.

Many of us children gathered round, and adults too, as we eagerly listened and marvelled at his majesty and splendour. For he shone with light, he dazzled us all – his robe changed as if at will, and his eyes you know were full of compassion, such love and kindness, and how fascinated we all were, and what happy days we had, long long ago.

During that life when I lived in the Higher Realms, many wonders did I see, for my Father and me, we walked hand in hand as we journeyed through the Aeons of Time.  Across many lands, continents, countries we went.

Different pilgrimages we undertook, following in Beloved Footsteps, where many others had travelled, but it was still quite rare and a great privilege to go thus.  But my Father you see, lived long ages past, indeed in the Beginning of Time, so was he born, for we all if we but knew, have a Jewel that is Forever Our Own. 

For Life in Heaven, as also on earth, forever grows, seeking and questioning, for only in so doing – do we reach those heights, for our thoughts are full of joy, love and wonder, at the Beauty and Meaning of Life, and yes, even Death, and so a New Beginning, leads to Great Excitement.

Many Memories I have of my Father and me, Flying Through Time – to the Past, those Early Days, and to the Future - We Flew Through Time, for my Father would say, ‘Well Benjamin my dear boy, what shall we do today’, knowing full well I loved to fly through the Air on that Golden Carriage, passing Golden Eagles, as we Flew so High. 

Indeed Winged Golden Horses, with Fairies riding therein, so did we meet, and we waved to each other and laughed with joy, and even the wind, so calm it is true - at times spoke my name – ‘Hello Benjamin, nice to see you again’, and the Sun seemed to follow us wherever we went, and so close was it.

I saw people, faces there amongst its Golden Glow, and sometimes more than One Sun, so did I see, for a total of Seven, All Having Beautiful and Different Colours, Once Was Shown To Me.

But I loved above all else, My Father speaking to me as we Flew Through Time, and I was Blessed Indeed, for I saw how History was, before it became Fact;  indeed I saw the Future, as we Looked into the Akashic Records – The Book of Life, for we Transcended the Veil of Time and Space, and once my Father said, ‘Benjamin – what will you do when you return next to earth with all this Knowledge that has been shown to you’? 

I thought for a long while, and then I said, ‘Can I write like you, about Heaven please’?  At this remark, my Father laughed, indeed tears of joy came to his eyes, and he hugged me and I too laughed with joy. 

‘Oh, my son, you will forget all this that you have learnt, until the time comes when your memory is awoken, and thus knowledge will begin to return and then all those earthly veils will have been blown away, and then my dear child, you will feel blessed indeed, for you will have travelled far over many life times, so yes, we will remember you want to write, and one day you shall write about Heaven itself, just as I myself have done in the Past’.

World Without End.

Amen.

We Are But A Messenger To Angelic Hosts Above:

Channelled through Pat Grabham

We Are But A Messenger to Angelic Hosts Above – Who Glide Throughout the Universe, full of Joy and Love.

Patiently they wait, listen and understand, knowing that for us, there is much more to comprehend.

They move around so silently, subtle and supreme.  All it takes is but a second, for them all to be seen.

Their innocence and purity is there for all to see.  For those who have ears to listen with, and for those who wish to see.

Their job is one of service, their work they do for God;  Blessed in that Knowledge, that they are One With Him.  His Guidance so they sought, in days of long ago, but now they are Supreme, as they go about His Dream.

They whisper amongst themselves, time and time again – then at varying other moments they simply look and talk within.  For in that unspoken action, lies the secret of their success, for they are Ambassadors for those Higher Planes of Light, and their joy is to lead us back once more, to those Heavenly Worlds Above.

We talk here on earth of action, but there is more to life than that;  for in those Higher Worlds of Being, God’s Thought Was The Key To Eternal Life. 

Life Is Eternal, it has stood the test of time – the Guardians of the Threshold, they Hold Wisdom in their Hands.  But beyond Wisdom, Love is the Key, that Golden Key to Eternity.

Thought takes us everywhere – it takes us back and forth.  Up into the Planetary Spheres, where Love is but a Thought.

Thought though can ease the pain of suffering, it can Pass Through the Veils of Time and Space, and thus seek out Home.

It can Transcend Death and Enable that Wheel of Rebirth to have Run Its Course.  For Right Thought can indeed Tune Into The Mind Of God, as we Remember Who We Are, and Where We Are From – for then we are Not a Messenger Any More, But An Angelic Host Ourself.
