Last night I went to see the film "This Is It". My experience of it was not what I would call joyful. I have a deep appreciation for the spirit behind the flesh in all our lives. Michael was very ill inside, and it is clearly visible in this film, despite the excellent editing and choice of clips.<br />

Last night I went to see the film "This Is It". My experience of it was not what I would call joyful. I have a deep appreciation for the spirit behind the flesh in all our lives. Michael was very ill inside, and it is clearly visible in this film, despite the excellent editing and choice of clips.<br />
<br />
Despite the obvious tragic vibrations that run through the film, something else emerged, something of a gift. Michael sends us a message of love. A challenge to rise up to our own potential, not in the context of our professions or appearance, but in how we treat each other. He places the song, "Man in the Mirror" and his earth song, in the context of our immediate time frame. During one point in the film Michael reminds us that we have about 4 years to get this thing turned around, an obvious reference to 2012. He says we can't wait for governments or institutions, that we as individuals have the power to transform the world with love.<br />
<br />
While Michael's soul is, clearly in pain, I observed the presence of angels within him. Coming through him and his work, offering us a feeling, a vibration that resonates in harmony with a future world filled with dignity, love and compassion.<br />
<br />
I invite you to accept this gift....to remove all the materialist trappings and wrappings which our merchandise based society delivers art. I invite you to see beyond all that into a soulful place filled with hope and love of our commonality, our humanity. In this place.... in this time.... it is up to us to make the difference.<br />
<br />
This Is It !<br />

Today I came upon some very interesting video material. The 3 video clips took a fair amount of time to get through, and I found myself drawn into the ideas expressed. there are lots of things to argue with in these videos, if one is of a mind to argue or resist. such a debate internally or between us, may as yet be of value. However, in this moment I am choosing to post these 3 videos for others to experience and learn about. I have not made up my mind, and welcome others insight and…

The act of self refinement is an act of magic.<br />
As each of us reaches out with our heart and open up into the Universe, we may feel vulnerable or exposed.<br />
There is truth to our vulnerability, our fragility, but for what we risk we stand to gain something transcendent.<br />
The nature of our individuality in the universe is not simply a matter of ego and identity.<br />

The act of self refinement is an act of magic.<br />
As each of us reaches out with our heart and open up into the Universe, we may feel vulnerable or exposed.<br />
There is truth to our vulnerability, our fragility, but for what we risk we stand to gain something transcendent.<br />
The nature of our individuality in the universe is not simply a matter of ego and identity.<br />
There is the soul's role as a nexus, or intersection of light.<br />
<br />
As each of us uses our own ability to transform ourselves, others who are waking up may see the light growing and thus, find the confidence to take the risk, to be more open and beaming.<br />
<br />
Transformation of the self spreads out across the universe one being at a time, until one by one we light up the stars. Together, as each individual soul light is lit, the universe grows brighter, until we reach the tipping point.<br />
<br />
It can be tempting to try to exercise control of externalities, to focus on other beings or transforming environments. Ambitions which flow from altruistic intentions based on a desire to transform our universe. While this is admirable and ultimately a good goal, the process can be daunting and frustrating when we seek to control that which is outside our personal sphere.<br />
<br />
Transforming the self is a act of magic and when one examines the upside potential, the mathematics reveal that one plus one, plus one, the universe is transformed wholly, when we reach critical mass together.<br />
<br />
This is not to forget our connection, the expression of our collective oneness, more an acknowledgment that as we are one, so are we also singular unique expressions of divinity... whole unto ourselves.<br />
<br />
As we reach out with hope to the larger universe, the offerings of compassion and warmth we give each other produce an antidote to fear and judgment. This enables more people to relax and accept themselves, and in turn accept and encourage others. Slowly building toward the critical mass of love which can transform the outer universe.<br />
<br />
This week I have been given the chance to exercise my skills in the area of patience with others....it is hard, but when I get through the moments and break into timeless compassion, patience feels easy and right.Lights in the Skytag:architectsofanewdawn.ning.com,2009-01-15:2227378:BlogPost:84232009-01-15T18:45:30.000ZMarchttp://architectsofanewdawn.ning.com/profile/Marc
