Every encounter I have through out the day, is an opportunity for me to make someone think. Think outside their self-created thought prison. Dissension is not always running off to the hills.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I found this sitting here for six hours, with you for the last 2 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hello everyone! In this issue of DNA Perfection's Online Course, we will learn all about THOUGHTS and how they are manifest into our holographic reality. In order to be in control of your manifest experiences, you first must understand about what your thoughts are, how they create, and how you can make them manifest into what you desire to see in your reality.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In Kathara Healing, we define thought as "scalar wave configurations of multi-dimensional vibrating patterns of bi-polar electromagnetic energy radiation, which form specific patterns of scalar frequency within the personal manifestation template".....
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In other words, thoughts ARE real THINGS :) You've probably heard that before. And your mind is an energy force that continually generates these patterns of scalar waves through the process of thought. Knowing this, it is not difficult then to understand how appropriately DIRECTED thought can directly influence one's manifest experience and reality. And this is what thought manifestation is about. How thought gets transduced into externalization and holographic projection. Reality is actually just a hologram that is created right through your DNA template. The more strands of DNA you have active, the more expanded your hologram will become, because you are able to bring in more dimensional levels of consciousness into your body via these frequency receivers.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you do not have the frequency receivers in your DNA called apparthi, turned on and active, which happens during DNA activation, then your body will not be able to hold a certain frequency, and that THING that you are trying to see in your hologram, like FABULOUS WEALTH, will not be manifest in your experience. There is no way to see something if you don't have the receivers for that frequency. The frequency will be blocked out as if it doesn't exist so you won't see the reality fields formed by those types of frequencies. It's like trying to explain to your great grandmother how we landed on the moon. She just doesn't have the receptors to receive this information turned on, and will not be able to comprehend it. I remember that my great grandmother thought us landing on the moon was a big hoax and that they filmed it all in a TV studio :)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It's the same thing when these self-labeled skeptics e-mail me and say that this is a "scam" or a "hoax". These people are in a self-imposed frequency fence first of all, PLUS they don't have the apparthi turned on to even receive the frequency of information that my website vibrates at. So it doesn't matter how many ways you try to explain to them, they will NEVER "get" it. Because they believe that if they can't see it with their eyes, then it doesn't exist. It's funny because science and the scientific method actually KEEP people in this frequency fence, and if one of the scientists goes out of it and becomes a "fringe" scientist, then they become black-balled in the scientific community, will not receive funding, etc.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It's like when we look up into the stars and into outer space, we are actually seeing a massive reality field that's filled with life and consciousness and all sorts of structures and forms and density levels and civilizations. But we don't see it all - we see deep SPACE - the huge amounts of black distances between planets. Space between objects is a vibrational frequency. It is a vibrational frequency that our body systems are not used to perceiving so they block it out. If the frequency receivers (apparthi) inside your DNA are not doing their job to receive frequency, then the frequency will be blocked out as if it doesn't exist. Since we don't have the frequency receptors turned on for that specific frequency, we literally won't see it in our reality. If we had all of our sense receptors turned on, complete DNA activation, we would not see the hologram. Everything would be direct cognition and known as part of us within ourselves when we know ourselves as Source.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;So there are LOTS of things that we can't perceive with our 3-Dimensional consciousness and that is one reason why science can't "prove" that there is "life on other planets". Because the beings exist in higher harmonics of frequency that their senses and current 3-D technologies can't detect.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It's really funny when I have a "scientist" e-mail me and tell me what I'm doing is impossible or a "scam". I love it when this happens because I can blow them away so fast that they don't even know what to say. Science tends to look at thought as one of those unquantifiable things as a result of physical "phenomena". But thought is just as physical as your physical body. Your body and the planet's body are just thoughtforms.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thoughts also wear chemical "clothes". They exist in your body as chemical form. They will be in some type of chemical molecular structure in your body and DNA. In fact, the ones that are disharmonic are the ones that cause chemical disease in the body. That's why the Auric Clearing and Karmic Sessions that I do are so valuable - to prevent these discordant thoughtforms from manifesting as physical disease.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Every thought that you think has a chemical reality in the body. Your thoughts are running through your blood and through your organ systems. They are in your body DOING things. So a big part of learning manifestation is learning mental body control - how you are going to use the physics in your body and in your mind to control your thoughts and direct your holographic reality.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Science misses a lot of what is happening when they are looking through their electron microscopes at parts of atoms, particles, and sub-atomic particles, because there is a TIME thing going on. What is happening is things flash on and off from Source and then back to polarity SO fast that they are beyond the perception of not only the brains of the scientists trying to see it, but also out of the range of the time distortion that you get by looking through a microscope.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Things flash on and off so quickly (as now proven by our quantum physicists) that we can't see it with the senses because the senses have a certain mathematical calibration that gives them a range of vibration that they can perceive but a large part is blocked out - because of the inactive apparthi (frequency receivers in the DNA).
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;When scientists look through microscopes and telescopes, remember, they are seeing a holographic projection. They are using lenses that bend light which means it's creating SOUND waves, which means it is CHANGING interrelationships between templates - so it allows them to see certain levels of the microscopic kingdom and macroscopic kingdom that normally our sense facilities would not project out.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;But the thing is, we DO have these sense facilities. If we can see these things through mechanical instrumentations, which are THOUGHTFORMS, that were created out of the BELIEF that we need an instrument to do this because we did not HAVE the innate ability to see these things ourselves....
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We don't need microscopes to see our microscopic particles. In fact, we will get a much more accurate assessment of what the particles look like and how they actually behave, when we begin to turn on our own MICROVISION, which is part of the natural senses that start to come with 4th strand DNA activation.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There are all sorts of things that we could do when human consciousness was functioning within its hologram the way it was designed to (when the DNA was operating properly and fully activated). We wouldn't need things like microscopes, telescopes........ CARS, HOUSES, MONEY, STUFF.....
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The very ancient civilizations that lived thousands of years ago didn't have a lot of STUFF. They didn't have junkyards like we do. They didn't have a problem with disposing of things - and it wasn't because they were primitive cultures at all. In fact, they didn't BURY bodies, because originally, they didn't even DIE. They ascended when they were tired of being here.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;When certain things happened to the DNA when they DID die, they didn't die and then bury the body. They TRANSMUTED it with frequency. And the parts that wouldn't transmute would become DUST........ "Ashes to ashes, and dust to dust". It would all be controlled by the most powerful source/force in the universe - THOUGHT. Because thought is the director of frequency and EVERYTHING is formed by frequency.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;So we're actually going back in time to reclaim the knowledge and the power and the understanding that was once ours when the DNA was functioning properly. And I think you all already know and see that thought manifestation from a 3-D level alone (3rd strand activation which most people are now in) is a hit or miss situation. New Age teachers teach you to say, "I am God, so that means whatever I command to do will happen". It doesn't really work very well does it? It's because your consciousness is still stationed in the 3rd dimension, and Source is still beyond the 15th dimension. In order to be more like Source or God, you have to be able to embody more dimensions of frequency which happens as you activate your DNA.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you HAPPEN to create an alignment between you and your higher levels of self and you HAPPEN to create an alignment between your particles and their angular rotation of particle spin, then you will create a thought field that does indeed jump out from you and in about 3 days time, start to become manifest. But again, it's hit or miss trying to manifest from 3rd dimensional consciousness.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;BUT, if you have 6 strands of DNA active, this means you can embody 6 dimensional levels of consciousness (your soul's frequency), so therefore you are closer to fully embodying Source's energies and thus when you use your thoughts to direct this energy, manifestation happens much faster and more consistently. When the frequencies in the planetary grids are running properly and the DNA inside your body is working properly, thought manifestation is INSTANTANEOUS. This is the power you have to look forward to eventually.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hope this information helps you and please let me know if I can assist you on your path.&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hit the Corporations Where They Feel It Most: Their Bottom Lines 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;By a heartbreaking two votes, the Senate approved drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge -- that pristine Alaskan wilderness area called the "American Serengeti," a living monument to the vast beauty of our planet. But the struggle in Congress is not over by a long shot, and there are other avenues available to protect this wildlife refuge. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Senator Barbara Boxer and others are organizing a consumer boycott of any oil company that drills in the Arctic Refuge. If by using our pocketbooks we can convince these companies to do the right thing, we can protect the Arctic Refuge from destruction. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you want to inform BP, ChevronTexaco, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil, and Shell that you will boycott their gas stations unless they pledge not to drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (see the text of your message below), just click "Reply" and "Send" in your email program. If this was forwarded to you, or you'd like to edit the message, just click this link: 
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Imagine if millions and millions of us, young and old, progressives and conservatives, make it clear to these companies that they stand to lose big-time if they drill for oil in the wildlife refuge. Polls show that most Americans are on our side. Let's walk our talk.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I could never think of the perfect way of describing this tribe to give an appealing and accurate introduction.   But I dig what it is.   I encourage everyone to post any and everything you wish.  The name obviously designates whom wish to connect on this tribe, and I believe it will naturally go in the direction designated by us.  Most of you came from my friend Beaudha's tribe "Catalyst 4 Change".  Beaudha and I also have another tribe setup called Nomadic Networking.  This tribe we are hoping to start as a network for travellers to hitch rides with other tribe members or offer a meal or advice on where to get a meal.  So check that one out as well, and we can try to get something going there as well.  Peace to you all.  Namaste.
