Hi there. I wanted to pass along this article I found - I feel it is incredibly important and needs to be read by those in this movement. It's titled: "Power To the People-The Economic Re-Wire", was written in 2007, and the link is: http://www.planetlightworker.com/articles_free/steverother/article18.htm

Please read, and spread!! Thank you. :)

"Fear vs. Love Let us speak to you about the decision process. First, understand that 97% of the leaders on this planet over the last 200 years have been elected out of fear. Are you tired of being afraid? We hope so. Fear vs. Love Let us speak to you about the decision process. First, understand that 97% of the leaders on this planet over the last 200 years have been elected out of fear. Are you tired of being afraid? We hope so. You have been playing the game of fear over and over again. Yes, it is a drama and humans love drama so you have chosen to go back and play the game over and over again. You have elected your officials and representatives out of fear, and that is where the challenge is. We tell you, dear ones, it is time for humans to take back their power. It is not a revolution, and it need not be in a negative way."

"An Equal Distribution of Wealth? Many of you believe that a market crash has to happen in order for a new economic system?one of fair and equal intent?that will distribute wealth equally all over the world. We tell you that this is not possible, dear ones, for wealth is a chosen attribute. Let us explain. There is a ladder we will simply call an economic ladder. Up here, you have wealthy people; down there, you have poor people. This is about money, dear ones, and it does not fit in any other place. You must understand our perception of money, for it is merely a reflection of a reflection. You treat it as an energy, but it is not. It is only a reflection of energy. Money is only a representation of exchange that you use to exchange energy. It has taken new proportions, for there are gaps and air bubbles. There are big balloons in your economic systems. Well, all the air is coming out of the balloon in one of those systems now. That is the economic structure on planet Earth at this time. Change your individual perceptions and you will start to change the collective perception. That can happen very quickly."

I'll post excerpts:

"There are big changes coming to planet Earth and you are seeing the very beginning of them now. These changes are beginning in the United States, but they are not limited to the United States. You are seeing the air escaping out of a huge balloon."

"Are the United States of America welcoming those in need today? No, because her government has stopped the flow, creating a separation that was not there before. The separation that was meant to protect you is instead killing you. It is not just in the United States, dear ones, but it is all over the world."

"Many of you have been waiting for your leaders to do something to correct the current economic situation. However, your leaders have just written a check that cannot be cashed. It is absolute insanity to expect to fix the problem with the exact same actions that originally created it. We ask you not to give your power to the leaders at all. The leaders of your countries, and even your organizations, will return to the more important things that they were meant to do. Leaders are not meant to make a country great, because only the country's people can do that. Your leaders are meant to do the important things, such as collect the trash, make your highways safe, and coordinate things with all the other countries. That is what your leaders were meant to do, but they have been allowed to do so much more until now. You have constantly given your power to world leaders. They have gladly taken it and said, "Thank you." Ahh, but you have choice at hand now, do you not? Not only do you have choice in the United States of America, but you have choice all over the world."

For those who do take the time to read it, please don't dismiss it as 'new age' religious crap. i think the one thing we can all agree is that what most of us have been taught to believe is "wrong" is not actually that at all ...

I came across this article, which I will admit is a spiritual article (but not religious), it was written in 2008 and it not only foretells the economic downturn of the U.S. and the EU, but it also describes the loss of the people's power, touches upon corporations - and i believe, captures what this movement is about - it's foretelling of great changes that are forthcoming, not only to our economics, but to our ways of life - i'm thinking of environmental, political, social, changes.

Thanks, but can you summarize it?

It touches on reincarnations at which point I backed out as fast as I could.

[-] 2 points by evol (14) 12 years ago

being open minded doesn't hurt, i promise.

[-] 1 points by kingscrossection (1203) 12 years ago

Oh I am. I just didn't feel like reading anything religious to be perfectly honest. Its not the right night for it.

[-] 3 points by evol (14) 12 years ago

It's not religious at all. ;)

"You have traveled such a great distance with so many incarnations as souls, and playing a number of games throughout the universe." Not my cup of flour. Although whole homemade cinnamon rolls is something else entirely.

I made them this weekend. I tend to burn mine but the one time I got them right I couldn't get them out of the house to sell.

I had to fight my dad for the last one. The doctor said if I'd lost any more blood out of my leg they would have had to amputate.

I gladly will just give me a couple of years. Of course I won. I needed to try at least one of them but I can tell you they were worth it.

Sounds like new age drivel. Many words combined to form "deep spiritual thoughts". Just a whole lot of nothing.

[-] 1 points by evol (14) 12 years ago

have you even read it?

it doesn't offer a solution, but it is very insightful about what caused our problems in the first place.

it may be new age, but to say "drivel" is to assume that all "new age" is useless. if that is your belief, that's fine. you're free to believe what you want. just know that the world is going through a lot of changes as we speak, and your perceptions might have to shift slightly.

Please don't pay Thrasymaque any mind. He is a paid troll. All he cares about are his own ideas. He loves to criticize and censor people and the forum. He has nothing interesting to say. He doesn't have the ability to avoid the posts that he doesn't agree with. Instead he posts negative comments and defaces them. He is a douchebag. BTW I found the story very inspirational. I found it far more spiritual than religious.

[-] -1 points by Thrasymaque (-2138) 12 years ago

Yes, my belief is that all new age stuff is useless. I would even say dangerous as it confuses the issues. I like precise scientific papers when seeking to elucidate problems and attempting to find worthwhile and practical solutions. There's no need for fantasy in such circumstances. It's just an obstacle on the path towards the truth.

[-] 1 points by evol (14) 12 years ago

I would like to know what part of that article, other than perhaps the beginning - (depending on what you believe), is fantastical. I also do not see anywhere in that article where the issue is confused. in fact, everything that they've written about the issue is spot-on. the people have given far too much power to their political leaders, this economical problem cannot be solved by, to quote einstein, "using the same thinking that created the problem in the first place." love cannot be scientifically proven, but it exists.

[-] -1 points by Thrasymaque (-2138) 12 years ago

I think love can be scientifically proven. It's nothing but a complex series of chemical reactions; so complex that it reaches transcendence which makes it seem like magic when it's not. Saying that love cannot be proved scientifically is a God of the gaps argument. It's nice to quote Einstein, but he's getting old. A lot has happened in the world of science since his death.

I tend to agree with you. As far as I can tell it doesn't really matter what you believe in reference to the article
