As human beings, all of us are gifted with free will to make decisions or choices.

After a particular point, inner healing, growing and spiritual evolution do not take place spontaneously. Each of us has to decide to attain them. We need to involve our will as well as our purpose and Intent to make these things possible. Intent is a strong energy that penetrates into all of Creation.

Intent is made up of two elements: will and purpose. Will is an energy that comes from the universe. The whole of creation has the power of will. Will is the gift that sustains our bodily functions – inhaling air, pumping blood and keeping itself healthy and balanced. Our body naturally carries this out without our intervention or interruption.

The power of Intent is one of the most creative powers in our collective and once aligned it brings the hidden powers of thought, feelings and actions together to form matter.

Intense thought is the first level of creation then word and then action.

“Actions are words moving. Words are thoughts expressed. Thoughts are ideas formed. Ideas are energies come together. Energies are forces released. Forces are the life elements of existence. Elements are particles, portions of all and the stuff of everything”

You can ask yourself, ‘what is the purpose, what do I wish to be or have happen? A collective purpose combine with a collective will gives us the power of Intent on a scale so large it will transform a given reality into any desired outcome.

We need no list of demands we need the power of intent.

Just looked at the User Map. Yes, We are here from all over the world gather! Let's try to go to an international party. It's a will - what World History has never seen!

We need no list of demands we need the power of intent?? I don't agree. Your demands - maybe too harsh a word - let's use objectives instead - articulates to others what you want your intents to achieve. The Civil Rights protest was in part successful because it also had specific objectives (e.g., elimination of segretation, voting rights act, etc. etc) that folks could get their head around and therefore, ultimately support. Stating a mission of economic justice is not enough. The movement needs to articulate what that is and how is it achieved (e.g., elimimation of investment banking, campaign finance reform, national living wage, etc.) otherwise your support will wane. Anyway - I still follow the cause - but it's time to move beyond intents and to move towards specific achievements - IMO anyway. www.wordsofwhizdumb.com

The power of intent is like the power of focus chanting. Get a group of people chanting and you can rumble the walls. Get a group of people that share the same intent you move ideas into matter.

We can solve one issue at a time with focused intent. It's already starting to happen.

I agree with you up to a point. In my experience it has been proven that regardless of intent, things go unexpectedly. We should have intent, but we should not let ourselves be turned away when we fail to meet all of our expectations. It is inevitable that things will not work out the way we desire them to, regardless of intent.

I don't think this is a reason to stop, but others might. We must be careful not to build up one thing so much that when it fails, we lose hope for the whole movement. We will still fail at times. But must remain strong till the end.

If we can see the natural cycle, we can join with it, and nature itself becomes our weapon.

Much is wrong with our political system. We cannot confront it as a whole.

Attack where it is weakest.

The repelican party has stood together as a block, on a foundation of lies. This is where the system is weak.

confront the lies.

There is no global Warming

Nature itself claims otherwise.
