WIKI - Yom Kippur, also known as Day of Atonement, is the holiest day of the year for the J
ews. Its central themes are atonement and repentance. Jews traditionally observe this holy day with a 25-hour period of fasting and intensive prayer, often spending most of the day in synagogue services.
This is a good idea. We could all do this as a daily spiritual practice, with self honesty, and eliminating selfishness.
2012 is the time of change for ALL humans. And a time of great opportunities. Let’s not miss any! This is the 11th hour for us all.
Jews are accused of faking the holocaust, murdering Jesus, attacking and destroying Palestine, being very racist, and generally destructive and base. Some of this is in the past, some in the present. But what really counts is what we are ALL doing in the present, individually, and as communities, and as nations. It is easy to prove what any individual, culture, and nation is all about just by observing their actions and their motive. We can all discern the truth.
We must not be hypocrites and judge and criticise anyone when no one on this Planet is perfect. We must find the bravery and compassion to admit to our OWN faults, which are many.
“Become the person you want the world to be”
Gandhi
7 billion silent inactive people are responsible for all atrocities on Earth. Unite. Take compassionate action. We cannot blame the minority when we are the majority. Don’t use others as scapegoats. Stop self-pity! “The Karma of silence and inaction is terrible”
It may often be true that the more we attack guilty people, the less likely they are to change. We must be positive, and bring out the inner Spiritual potential in self, which automatically raises the consciousness of the whole, via meditation, prayer, and Love in Action, and positivity, etc.
We must forgive self and others endlessly. Forget the past, and move forward.
There is good and bad in every nation, culture, and individual. All lifestreams are Spirit. We are here to learn and change.
"I have three things I'd like to say today. First, while you were sleeping last night, 30,000 kids died of starvation or diseases related to malnutrition. Second, most of you don't give a shit. What's worse is that you're more upset with the fact that I said shit than the fact that 30,000 kids died last night"
Tony Campolo. American pastor, sociologist, author, and speaker.
Saint Francis was very much in tune with Nature and the Universe, and was able to talk to animals. He lived to about 250 years old, so was perhaps not from this Earth, or was an advanced ascended Soul from Earth.
He instructed his disciples (disciplined ones) to: "Go out and teach; use words if necessary"
Eliminate hypocrisy. Teach by example. LOVE is the answer. All you need is LOVE.
"If you are a Christian, then live the Laws as laid down by Jesus. If you are a Buddhist, live the Laws as laid down by Buddha. If you are a Hindu, then be the best Hindu. This procedure is the one true Way for men of Earth to save themselves from their lower aspects"
Humans have followed the same destructive pattern for millennia. Its 2012, a time for INNER change, at long last. WE CAN DO IT!
"If we don’t do the impossible, we shall be faced with the unthinkable"
Petra Kelly. Founder of the German Green Party
We have individual/personal Karma and collective/group Karma
Karma and reincarnation are REAL. The heavens and hells are REAL. We have to be responsible for every thought and action, knowing that there are repercussions. So we may as well choose to make every thought and action positive, not negative. All humans certainly need to change. Some individuals and cultures are worse or better than others, but we all need to learn to live in the NOW. And love all life.
MAN’S GUILT
The heart and mind is blocked by guilt, selfishness, self-pity, ego, fear, greed, jealousy, and our many weaknesses and failings that we are meant to overcome and learn from, transmuting negativity into positivity. SELFISHNESS is perhaps man’s worst failing.
Humans have such immense guilt which has accumulated for millennia, due to committing multiple genocide (all wars are engineered), poisoning their children with vaccines, killing billions of animals, & harming & destroying the Planet & all lifestreams. It must all STOP. We may as well create positive Karma instead of negative Karma, and reap what we have sown. Love, protect & respect all life, then we will receive the same
“You can't undo anything you've already done, but you can face up to it. You can tell the truth. You can seek forgiveness. And then let God do the rest.”
Mahatma Gandhi
Humans have followed an endless pattern of destruction for thousands of years, destroying Atlantis and other advanced civilisations with nuclear weapons.
Its 2012, time is short, please let us all change, starting with self.
"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."
Buckminster Fuller
“Become the person you want the world to be”
Gandhi
“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself”
Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy
“To put the world in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right"
Confucius
If you want to awaken all of humanity,
then awaken all of yourself.
If you want to eliminate the suffering in the world,
then eliminate all that is dark and negative in yourself.
Truly, the greatest gift you have to give
is that of your own self-transformation.
Lao Tzu
"All meaningful and lasting change starts in the mind”
Albert Einstein

Our Deepest Fear by Marianne Williamson
From her book... “A Return to Love”
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light not our darkness that frightens us.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking;
So that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine as children do.
It’s not just in some of us, it’s in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously
give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
Our Presence automatically liberates others.
We ask ourselves – “Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?”
Actually, Who are we NOT to be?

“In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot”
Mark Twain
“These are times that try men’s Souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his own country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered …”

Go vegan for inner and world peace
We pray on Sundays that we may have light
To guide our footsteps on the path we tread;
We are sick of war, we don’t want to fight,
And yet we gorge ourselves upon the dead.
George Bernard Shaw
Can we REALLY expect a golden new age of peace while we still have slaughterhouses and vivisection laboratories?!
“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world”

Go vegan for world peace. Love, respect, and protect all lifestreams.
