Invocation for the New Reality Paradigm
TheTwinflames, Wisdom Quarterly
I call upon Mother/Father God, and all the Beings of Light from On High that I personally acknowledge as I align with my Mighty I Am Presence, the Highest Light of Who I Am and Who I have Forever Been.

I now call for a complete activation of the 12 Strand DNA and a clearing of all limited beliefs and patterns I may hold at a cellular level, so I may truly experience myself as this Master Being of Love and Light.

• Buddhism and the Brahma concept
• Buddhism and the God Idea
• Our Spiritual DNA
  

I now call upon the Company of Heaven and my I Am Presence to assist in downloading all the key codes of Light that I am needing in this Now, to take me into unconditional Love and One Unity Consciousness.



I now find myself on the Unity Grid of Light, this crystalline grid of Light, within and around this Earth plane, connected to Mother Earth, and a minimum of one million Light workers along this grid of Light, and all the Beings of Light from On High assisting in this ascension of the Earth.

I am now surrounded in the golden flame of Unity Consciousness, as I merge completely with my I Am Presence. In this energy of Love and Unity Consciousness, I now envisage a spiralling vortex of Light about my aura, combining with all those along the Unity Grid, holding the focus of World Peace, Love, and Unity Consciousness for this new Golden Age.

I now experience this collective Christed Consciousness, opening my heart to all life, recognizing myself as One with all life, One with Mother/Father God.

As I project my Christed Consciousness into the future, I envisage an Earth where all life co-creates in Love and lives fearlessly.



I envisage a world of harmony and abundance for all life on this Earth plane.

I envisage a world of Love and joy for all life on this Earth plane.

I envisage a world of One Unity Consciousness for all life on this Earth plane.

I envisage a world enlightened by the new reality paradigm, the Golden Age of Aquarius.

As this first wave soul in human embodiment of the I Am Avatar Blueprint, I envisage this Blueprint of Light for all life on this Earth plane.

Judaism: God and Gays cause Earthquakes

(LINK) Rabbi Levin provides Biblical and Rabbinical citations that connect disasters in general, such as earthquakes and floods (tsunamis) in particular to gay sex...

"G-D shakes the Earth because gays shake their male members where they shouldn't," according to Jewish (Old Testament) scholar Rabbi Yehuda Levin ("The Fear Kashes" on blip.tv; see full video below from the archives of the Rabbi's weekly radio program are heard on 6.20 AM (in NYC) every Sunday night from 12:00 to 1:00 am.



Many fundamentalist Christians, whose religion is intricately tied to Judaism, agree.

FULL VIDEO: "G-D, Homosexuality, & Earthquakes"

(YourSupremeBeing) August 24, 2011 - Using biblical passages, Rabbi Yehuda Levin tries to blame east coast earthquakes (Virginia, DC, New York City and Haiti, Dominican Republic) on God's wrath against homosexuals and gay marriage.



Using this logic, one could show that God hates Jews even more than he hates homosexuals. In actuality, God does not hate anybody. Maybe Rabbi Yehuda Levin does. But he notes that he does not dislike gay people. And he is not the only one to read Judeo-Christian scripture in this way.



The New York rabbi claims gay marriage and the earthquake that shook the East Coast last Tuesday are directly connected. In a video uploaded to YouTube (and soon taken down as "hate speech"), Levin says gay rights legislation, like the gay marriage law passed in New York, are responsible for earthquakes, like the one that just struck Virginia/Washington, D.C.



"The Talmud states, 'You have shaken your male member in a place where it doesn't belong. I, too, will shake the Earth,'" Levin says. "We don't hate homosexuals," he says. "I feel bad for homosexuals. It's a revolt against God and, literally, there's hell to pay."

Ramadan, War, and the Mythology of Saturn

Muslims in America and Ramadan 2011

(TWS, August 3, 2011)

Misunderstanding Islam continues. For Muslims in America, Ramadan 2011 brings an opportunity to reach out to fellow Americans. Muslims across the world started the holy month of Ramadan on August 1 with fasting. American Muslims are no different. But Keith Ellison, a member of the House of Representatives from Minnesota, claims that Islam is still much misunderstood in the country. More

On a much deeper level, what are Mecca and the Black Cube at its center really about?

Mecca is the center of the Islamic world. But the treatment of the central edifice is an ancient Vedic ritual, more characteristic of Hinduism, honoring Saturn a planet or an anthropomorphic representation of that heavenly body (or, more likely, a visitor therefrom). Who is the god of this world? Judging by our behavior for millenia.

The powers that be (Pentagon, CIA, banking elites, and similar movers and shakers) want a Holy War. The sides? The "good" Judeo-Christian US wages endless war against "evil" Islam (Persian post-Zoroastrian asura-worship). It may be mythology and a fundamentalist interpretation of the Christian Bible, but it is motivating very serious decisions to destroy people on the basis of religion. The military-industrial complex operates as if it is true, growing rich while impoverishing everyone else.

How and Why the World worships Saturn

Theforceiswithinyou.com

[We may] not know it, but the entire world has been worshiping Saturn for thousands of years. The cult has never stopped, and its rites are still present to this day. Saturn, dubbed the “Lord of the Rings,” is the reason why we exchange rings at weddings or put halos on the heads of godly people.

Semitic civilizations referred to the god Saturn as “El.” The supreme deity was represented by a black cube. We can find instances of the cube across the world.

The gods of ELohim are angELs, the messengers of god.

When witches cast a speEL, they put the “Hex” (6) on someone, and when chefs deep fry something, they “Deep 6” it. It is the ELites who run the world today. Elite comes from the “IsraElites” which came from the Egyptian worship of the Moon (Isis), the Sun, (Ra), and Saturn (Elohim), hence IsRaEl.

Jews and Muslims alike worship a huge black cube/box called Kabba at Mecca. Their god YHWH is known as the “Tetragramaton” meaning their 4 letter (4 sided?) God. The “Kabballah” of Jewish mysticism/Masonry comes from KabbaAllah or “CubeGod” around which people gather and ceremonially walk in circles. More (see cube photos and video)

Connection older than Hinduism and Judaism

Walking in circles, called circumambulation, is an appeasing mark of respect. It is explicitly called for in Hindu and pre-Hindu ceremonies. ("Hinduism" only began when Adi Shankara systematized disparate views and schools of thought prevalent in India around 800 CE). Interestingly, as part of the Hajj, or annual pilgrimage to Mecca, pilgrims throw stones at the Devil as if to keep bad luck away.

Shani Deva/Saturn: The fearful Hindu god of bad luck

Hindus are under fear of evil and ill-effect from his planet Saturn. In Vedic astrology, the planetary position at the time of birth determines the future of a person. So Hindus accord immense importance to the planets, and Saturn or "Shani" is one such planet.

Why is Saturn the most feared deity?

The "return of Saturn" as Gwen Stefani sang about might be something to fear more than to celebrate. Of course, making the best of it is always best. There's no bad that cannot lead to some good as well.

What does worldwide Mythology teach us?

The Nine Realms of Nordic mythology -- as one learns in the movie "Thor" or from deep study of Viking lore -- are space worlds corresponding to the nine planets of our solar system. (There is or was a tenth "planet," Nirbiru, but that's another matter). The "gods" (devas) hailing from these worlds came to Earth to help or conquer, pillage or lift up. This left Earthlings with very different feeling about various deities, their days, and their "stars" (planets).

• Scientists say comet Elenin has massive UFO fleet following in formation in its tail

Thor (Sakka, Indra) got Thursday, Saturn Saturday, and so on. This is the collective spiritual inheritance of the world, but it only remains in mythological form. We are pressed to believe it is only fantastic or symbolic. It was once very literal, and as ELenin approaches (see video below) and the "gods" (powerful extraterrestrials revered like gods) return, all will be revealed. Meanwhile, the harmful titans (called asuras in Buddhism) and reptilians (nagas) have been here a long time preparing to resist. [It's not clear where an ape-like race of forest dwellers stand.] Humans are caught in the middle, with many taking the wrong side.

God's Approval Ratings Are Down (video)

God's Approval Rating Barely Breaks 50 percent
Jack Jenkins (Religion News Service)

WASHINGTON (RNS) - More than half of U.S. voters approve of God’s job performance, according to a new poll, making God more popular than all members of Congress.

• LISTEN: "God's Polling Power" (NPR)
  
• God's approval rating is 52%, a very theological poll
• VIDEO: Secret NPR: Bias or fake controversy? (newsy.com)
  

The poll -- which was conducted by the Democratic research firm Public Policy Polling (PPP) -- surveyed 928 people and found that 52 percent of Americans approved of God’s overall dealings [they particularly liked "its" creation of the universe], while only 9 percent disapproved.

Questions about God were asked as part of a larger survey assessing American opinions of congressional leaders in the midst of the ongoing debt ceiling debate in Washington.

God’s approval rating exceeded that of House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, as well as both Democrats and Republicans in Congress, with each party receiving only a 33 percent approval rating.

God also polled significantly higher than the scandal-ridden media baron Rupert Murdoch: only 12 percent of those polled viewed him favorably, compared to 49 percent who viewed him unfavorably.

“Though not the most popular figure PPP has polled, if God exists, voters are prepared to give it (sic) good marks,” PPP said in a July 21 press release.



The poll also gauged God’s handling of specific “issues.” When asked to rate God on the creation of the universe, 71 percent of voters approved and only 5 percent disapproved. Respondents were also generally appreciative of God’s governance of the “animal kingdom,” with 56 percent approving and 11 percent disapproving.

Younger respondents were more critical of God’s handling of natural disasters, with those ages 18-29 expressing a 26 percent disapproval rating, compared to 12 percent disapproval among those 65 and older.

The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.2 percentage points.

Teens practice religion in their own way

New book suggests teens are practicing religion in their own way
In A Faith of Their Own teens rate the personal significance of religion highly, less so the institutional part.

A common assumption among both clergy and scholars is that the time between the end of childhood and the beginning of childbearing is the least religious period of a person’s life.

Not necessarily, according to a new book by a pair of sociologists. In A Faith of Their Own: Stability and Change in the Religiosity of America's Adolescents, Lisa Pearce and Melinda Lundquist Denton, argue teenagers are interested in religion. But they often want to “do religion” apart from institutional structures.

“It’s not automatic that adolescents are negative about religion,” says Pearce, an associate professor of sociology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. “Our interviews suggest they’re thinking of these things. They’re looking for things to be passionate about. The potential is there.”

Pearce and Denton’s book draws on the massive National Study of Youth and Religion, which included telephone surveys and in-depth interviews. The project, supported by the Lilly Endowment, has already produced two other books, Soul Searching: The Religious and Spiritual Lives of American Teenagers and Souls in Transition: The Religious & Spiritual Lives of Emerging Adults.



In this volume, the two researchers follow up with 2,530 young people, aged 16 to 21, who had first been surveyed about their faith and religious habits in 2002.

In looking for common patterns in the survey responses, the sociologists came up with five types of religious profiles among the teens:

• Abiders, representing 20 percent of the teens. These are the adolescents with the highest levels of religious interest and practice. They not only believe in God, they pray regularly, attend services, volunteer and are most likely to say their religion is the only true faith.
• Adapters, 20 percent. This group shows high levels of personal religiosity. But compared to the Abiders, they are more accepting of other people’s faiths and attend religious services more sporadically. The Adapters are most likely of all the groups to help others in need.
• Assenters, 31 percent. These teens say they believe in God, but they are minimally engaged with their faith. Religion is tangential to other aspects of their lives.
• Avoiders, or 24 percent. They believe in God but do not engage in any religious practice. Their God is a distant one and they often don’t name a religious affiliation.
• Atheists, representing 5 percent. The opposite of the Abiders. They don’t believe in God and don’t attend services.

Overall, the researchers found a modest dip in religious participation between the two waves of their study.

“On average there’s a slight decline in practice and beliefs, especially religious service attendance” says Denton, assistant professor of sociology at Clemson University. “But there’s not the precipitous drop-off people might have expected.” More
