    Thank You ! I am happy to be a member of this beautiful conciousness. I feel it is vital, especially in these times, to have self realization and act on it. I know we are all here for one purpose, which is to help others Each one of us has a unique gift that will help make this life here on Earth more positive and loving.  Our job is to find what our gift is to humankind and act on it.  This is true realization and success in this realm.

    I didn't find this site. It found me via ether or cyberspace. I just uploaded images of some of my paintings.
  • Astrid Fitzgerald

    Thank you, Richard Lukens, for featuring my art work. I'm honored to be part of this wonderful community. Besides being a painter, I'm also a long-time student of the Perennial Philosophy, and the author of three books - my latestet a novel for young adults as well as people of any age, entitled WINTER BREAK: A Luminous Journey into Wisdom and Love. I would like to post an excerpt if that's possible on this site.

    Dear Richard;
    My wife, Astrid Fitzgerald, whose work is featured on your site, invited me. I am a writer/lecturer/teacher, the author of ten books. My web site is ww.rgbooks.com. I am also a blogger for the Huffington Post and I am on the faculty of the University of Philosophical Research, where I teach philosophy and consciousness studies. On the lighter side, I used to go to Fillmore West back in 68-69 to listen to Santana and loved the jazz fusion he offered then.

    Thank  you Rick.

     

    It's always nice to feel welcomed. I will do my best to participate in ways that will help others align more fully with the gift they already really are.  I'm not the greatest at navigating the computer or typing, but every day I get better, I'm just slower with the process.

    Thanks so much for the warm welcome. I find myself in a world gone haywire, in a world where warm welcomes are few. It's important to note that I love people, and care very, very deeply about all of mankind. This is not a popular belief system in the world I find myself in.

    I am somewhat handicapped, having a body that has been treated badly, and one that has suffered tragedy. I have experienced a miraculous rebirth over the past year though. It started with a hospital stay that I was not expected to survive. I made a decision to ask God for a helping hand after returning to my home. I decided to put all of my eggs in one basket. This is something I had never done. I have always been too wise and resourceful to do that.

    The fact is: I stopped taking the 300 mg of morphine each day. An 18 year habit is tough to break by yourself. I had no difficulty. Unlike other morphine withdrawls I had experienced, this time it was pain free.

    I started with Radiohead. I sang until I could no longer make a sound. I started playing keyboards again, and I went for 6 months on only one hour of sleep each day. My doctor and life-counselor, he witnessed all of this. I reported to him anywhere from 3 to 5 times per week. He observed that I was alert, in good spirits, relatively pain free and 'ascended'.

    During this time, I dropped 114 lbs. I lost 10 inches off my waist. I gave up the 20+ drugs I had been force fed by the insurance industry. I experienced something very, very special. I won't bore anyone further with details, but suffice to say, this previously misdiagnosed 'bipolar' is convinced he may be a savant instead. Or a prophet.

    I'm looking forward to more testing. Even if I am wrong, and I hope to be most of the time, because this is where the learning begins; it will be interesting to look at the data I have assembled. It will be interesting to discuss this. Peace out. Love you.

  • Tom Kowalsky

    Yep my videos from footage to music to editing.
  • I've Lost

    Thanks for the welcome. And yes, all my own work!
  • Rex Downham

    Hi Richard. I wanted you and everyone else know that I may be unavailable for the time being. This is surely where I want to be, but many technical details are preventing me from communicating. I hope to return here and do good works. In the meantime; my good works will be local.

     

    All my best to all!

  • Susan Dirks

    HI, Richard, thanks for the warm welcome, yes, Iowa is pretty interesting this time of year.  Today it's frosty, tomorrow will feel like true spring.

    I signed on to Architects at the suggestion of one of Carlos' fan mail monitors.  I will be posting music from my son's band, Mad Monks, amazing original prog rock style music with a message.  Too busy at work to get to the upload, maybe this weekend. 

    Again, it's wonderful to have a welcome from you!  I see your good works, keep it up!

    It's Christina, but that's so boring! so Xrstina is what I use for a screen name.  I do photography and I blog. (Political, music, social commentary). I am interested in breaking down barriers between people,  consciousness, peace and zeitgeist.

  • dearangeline

    Thank you for your welcome message.

    

  • dearangeline

    Nice question Richard,

    My life is inspired at waking, (especially to the Sun at dawn) and is always followed by gratitudes; with colour and sound life is in everything and becomes a like, 'a breath of fresh air', a symphony complimenting my belief, "we must be good to our fellow man"

     

    I also find inspiration in progress, building, scheduling and directing the energy of entrepreneurs interested healthful products, nutrition & global business. 

    (i.e. new trademarked healthful compound, increases nutrients, absorption & oxygen uptake albeit is distributed privately) Adieu.....msg. to me anytime

     

    Thank you Carlos Santana, for your webpresence is splendid; and you Richard for your message.

  • Linda Penner

    Hi Richard!  Thanks for the add!  My band is releasing a single called "Be the Change" this Friday for Earth Day and all benefits are going to the Golden Pyramid of Peace project in Japan for the relief efforts there.  I am new to the site but have known about the project for some time.  Is there any way I can get my music and videos posted on the Music channel here?  Thanks so much for your good work and peace be with you! 
  • Beverly Kane

    Hi Richard,

           Found your website address on Earthnetwork.com.  I'm interested in crystals and stones and their use in healing.  I am a networker in my area, so when I find something that other healers would be interested in, I forward it to them. We have a group that meets monthly so I'm sure there will be many things of interest.  Peace!

  • Beverly Kane

  • Breezeluvr

    Hi Richard....Thanks for putting this site together.  I, as most, love Carlos too.  I was drawn to him at age 16...now at 55, and especially after listening to his intro on this site, I realize why I was so drawn to him all my life.  So many wonderful people here all coming together.  This is GREAT.  I watched the video you posted - Redemption Song, Playing for Change.  Beautiful.  I forwarded that out to people in my address book.  Thank you for being you.  Many Blessings to You.

    Hello Brother and Sisters; I'm a new member; just met Rick..I'm excited to keep finding Us coming together at this time...from coast to coast...seemingly readying to implement our Heart in this world.      My part of that Grand Mosaic is a body of knowledge called "LovingCommunication"©.
    LovingCommunication is a set of places to think from.....and places to speak from - which result in the disappearance of human upsets, misunderstandings and arguments.  It works each and every time and allows the couple to re experience the original Love and to continually go deeper in togetherness ("we-ness" - which by the way, seems to be Life's true purpose for us being in relationships)....
    The LC© principles first appeared as mathematical formulae in the mid 1980's.  They are the actual moving dynamics governing human communication.  When you use these natural laws, you can easily navigate in emotional "rough seas"; you can repair precious relationships and deepen the love everywhere in your life.
               Suddenly you clearly understand what occurred in past relationship situations and why it happened and what was "trying" to happen.......and also what you could have done had you had these understandings.
    And here's the site:  http://loving-communication.com
