I am sure they have mastered OBEs:) Are you familiar with Byron Katie? She teaches The Work in prisons. In essences she teaches only each one of us has a job to do and with acceptance we love reality as it is as it is God: http://www.intentblog.com/archives/2007/04/35_years_in_sol.html

She has a wonderful dvd with the inmates of San Quentin. On Youtube you can the process with a inmate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ycd3CAwUW0&mode=related&search=

Sending love and miracles to you and your friends. The walls are our ordianary mind. love patty

Dear Anita:

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to Intent Blog. Having been an investor since college, I remember when the Body Shop came public and reading what you were doing and thinking at the time, I really like this woman and what she is doing and here you are! Welcome and it is good to meet you.

I am not going to comment just yet on the title of your thread but something else based on your biography posted here. Background: On the Open Thread a poster was deriding the baby boomer generation for the supposedly Age of Unreason by saying "However, the magical thinking never left them---and they passed it on to succeeding generations." He stated he was a member of the boomer generation and said "This is something I am not proud of as my generation was one of the most spoiled and self-centered generations of all time. He then summarily dismissed the entire generation of an estimated 30 million people here in the States by consulting an astrological site and saying it was the age of aquarius and could be identified as "I know" Someone else asked me if I had read the post and I replied that one did not even have to be a boomer to realize that, the litany of developments that galvanized the awareness of the '60s is long: the Civil Rights movement, Feminism and Equal Rights for Women, Native American resistance, Prison rebellion and reform, Farm workers protests, Ecology and Environmentalism and of course Vietnam and Sex, Drugs and Rock'n Roll and my contention was that it was not these things that shaped our world over the succeeding 30 years but the backlash against them.

All of this is on Open Thread if you want to read it and the reason I am bringing it up is that Forewarned is forearmed.....expect some backlash here at IB.

Additionally, I consulted the site of an astrologer by the name of Bill Herbst who grew up in the '60's and has some very good insight regarding the ideals and principles of that era.
They were:

"What amazes me, however is the consistence of character between then and now. My generation of Baby Boomers who were at the forefront of the'60s awakening have caught a lot of flak for being pampered (definitely) narcissistic (true) and for selling out (less true, I believe).......also
"You could tell which people were waking up in authentic ways and becoming committed to social change versus others who were just partying with the herd. It didn't matter much what people said or how they acted, you could see through that into their character and anticipate their future paths.....You knew also who was likely to run with the awakening for decades to follow, never giving up, never selling out."

So after saying all that, I am glad to see someone who's "magical thinking never left and never sold out and is passing it on to succeeding generations....in a more mature fashion. We have much to offer and much to look forward to. I too love Dorothy Sayers quote "A woman in advancing age is unstoppable by any earthly force." I say don't "you know it" and Girl! it is too late to stop now.

So again Welcome, it is indeed a pleasure to meet you.

Love
Bonnie

Hi Anita,

Looks like you’re doing some great stuff. My mother is also British growing up in War II and I know the frugal nature of which you speak and have been indoctrinated with it. :)

I think about the people in prison often, and the innocent ones that get there because justice is so expensive, and if you don't have a good lawyer ... I also think about the real criminals that use pen and policy rather than a gun sometimes killing over a period of time, stealing food from the mouths of children, and raping the planet. Soon they will be gone as a result of the blooming awareness and truth that will pervade the minds of man.

It has always been my intention to eliminate the prisons (which are profit centers for some) and replace them with Contemplation Centers.

I also have solutions for the drug problem understanding how various factors destroy the bodies ability to produce it's own natural opiates. There is a very efficient and unprofitable approach to the problem of addiction far superior to the high profit ineffective one we currently have implemented.

The justice and legal system have been turned into a big profit center and I would like to see that change.

There are only two real crimes violence and environmental destruction. All the rest are artificial crimes where it is the laws that create criminals many being a product of dysfunctional systems.

A revolution was started a long time ago when one refused to embrace the fictions of the world and it has gone through many phases. Now it is time for it’s climax.

The Internet has made it possible, all minds joined as one, the truth unencumbered, which will set us free.

There are two projects you might be interested in Rock Dust (earth surface soil remineralization) and Amaranth. They solve problems like malnutrition, hunger, poverty and global warming.

If you click my name the link takes you to where you can read about them they are a part of Infinite Play the Movie which is really a covert intelligence operation designed to destroy the fictions of the world using entertainment, at least that's the intention.

Here is the link to the soil remineralization Rock Dust project. One of the major benefits of doing this is that it eliminates the need for pesticides and petroleum based fertilizers. Not only that, it can double actual food output, and helps plants to become resistant to drought and disease.

Everything is a first draft and it will all be refined later, energy permitting.

One last thing you might have an interest in, I may have figured out a cost effective way to extract squalene a natural, oil-free moisturizer from Amaranth. A better and more enviro friendly source as opposed to sharks.

This would increase the value of Amaranth so that unskilled people growing it could generate about $6,000 USD per acre selling on the world market.

When awareness of the benefits of Amaranth increase demand it could very well become a major commodity market surpassing soy beans.

My intention would also be to create a supply chain (new system) where there are no middle men extracting a large percentage of the profits that belong to the growers. Each producer or group could sell direct into the world market.

Solutions to all the worlds’ problems exist as executable solutions, it is simply a matter of generating awareness, having the intention, and it will happen.

I am sorry I pasted the intenblog address for Byron Katie. Here is her address: http://www.thework.com/thework.asp And you can actually view the Youtube with the process of the father who is incarcerated right on her site. I purchased the dvd and it is excellent.

Many years ago after Dr. King jr. was shot a lot of people gathered at a Church on top of Nob Hill and I stood and held hands with someone wearing a black cape and Panther Hood. Later I did some volunteer work at the San Rafael jail in Marin County. I think that is where the court house was where they had a shooting that was connected with the Black Panthers. Being from S.F. I remember the movement very well.

I am so grateful for the movies that have been put out about the blood diamonds. Africa is the richest nation of natural resources and what does that tell us about the world.

I am so grateful for people like you and Byron Katie who are going into the system. I truly wish the best for your friends and do hope they have OBE's because they validate we are not our bodies. May their energy return be with God's Speed as space and time is a continuum. love patty
