'Voyage to Betterment' is an interesting documentary film about the current state of affairs on our planet, with diseases such as Cancer, Diabetes, Coronary Heart Diseases etc ... running rampant all over and what we could possibly do to improve the quality of the lives we lead by being more conscious of what we feed our body and how we can nourish our soul. What does it really take to keep good health?


The film introduces the viewer to the Ten Principal Elements for Well Being. As soon as we mention well being everyone immediately thinks of food and exercise. So that is where the film begins. A group of regular people are filmed taking a 30 day food and exercise challenge. Their first week on a holistic cruise yet it turns out the group spent far more time partying then doing yoga or taking in workshops. The film highlights some of the main marketing techniques that we are programmed by.


Then the viewer is left with an appreciation for the difficulty in distinguishing truth from falsehood by the examination of our beliefs including the one thing dear to all, the beliefs about food choice. Secretly, nearly everyone believes their food choices are best and others have it all wrong. Our beliefs about which food is best for us goes from one extreme to the other.

Many believe that meat based diets are best and others that vegan diets are best. Is the truth somewhere in the middle or closer to one end or the other? In the film leading vegetarian doctors highlighted their most critical findings of their lifetime of work. Andrew served as the coach of the participants featured in the film. Although he is not vegetarian himself he put the participants in the film to the test to see if what the vegetarian experts say in the film holds any value.



Before and after blood tests measured the effect of their plant based food challenge, with something of concern to everyone, our risk of developing major illness and our biological age. When the participants in the film discovered the depths of human potential and the reality that everything is forever recorded in consciousness, it left them speechless.

The film goes on to reveal other critical elements for well being and captured things on film for the first time ever. Viewers will see a tumor disappear in minutes, and grass growing taller when surrounded by love.

In the story that follows, Sadhguru tells us about Shiva, the first yogi, and how he transmitted the yogic sciences to the Saptarishis.

Sadhguru: In the yogic culture, Shiva is not known as a god, but as the Adiyogi or the first yogi – the originator of yoga. He was the one who first put this seed into the human mind. According to the yogic lore, over fifteen thousand years ago, Shiva attained to his full enlightenment and abandoned himself in an intense ecstatic dance upon the Himalayas. When his ecstasy allowed him some movement, he danced wildly. When it became beyond movement, he became utterly still.

People saw that he was experiencing something that nobody had known before, something that they were unable to fathom. Interest developed and people came wanting to know what this was. They came, they waited and they left because the man was oblivious to other people’s presence. He was either in intense dance or absolute stillness, completely uncaring of what was happening around him. Soon, everyone left… Except for seven men.








These seven people were insistent that they must learn what this man had in him, but Shiva ignored them. They pleaded and begged him, “Please, we want to know what you know.” Shiva dismissed them and said, “You fools. The way you are, you are not going to know in a million years. There is a tremendous amount of preparation needed for this. This is not entertainment.”

So they started preparing. Day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year, they prepared. Shiva just chose to ignore them. On a full moon day, after eighty-four years of sadhana, when the solstice had shifted from the summer solstice to the winter solstice – which in this tradition is known as Dakshinayana – the Adiyogi looked at these seven people and saw that they had become shining receptacles of knowing. They were absolutely ripe to receive. He could not ignore them anymore. They grabbed his attention.

He watched them closely for the next few days and when the next full moon rose, he decided to become a Guru. The Adiyogi transformed himself into the Adi Guru; the first Guru was born on that day which is today known as Guru Pournami. On the banks of Kanti Sarovar, a lake that lies a few kilometers above Kedarnath, he turned South to shed his grace upon the human race, and the transmission of the yogic science to these seven people began. The yogic science is not about a yoga class that you go through about how to bend your body – which every new born infant knows – or how to hold your breath – which every unborn infant knows. This is the science of understanding the mechanics of the entire human system.

After many years, when the transmission was complete, it produced seven fully enlightened beings – the seven celebrated sages who are today known as the Saptarishis, and are worshipped and admired in Indian culture. Shiva put different aspects of yoga into each of these seven people, and these aspects became the seven basic forms of yoga. Even today, yoga has maintained these seven distinct forms.

The Saptarishis were sent in seven different directions to different parts of the world to carry this dimension with which a human being can evolve beyond his present limitations and compulsions. They became the limbs of Shiva, taking the knowing and technology of how a human being can exist here as the Creator himself, to the world. Time has ravaged many things, but when the cultures of those lands are carefully looked at, small strands of these people’s work can be seen, still alive. It has taken on various colors and forms, and has changed its complexion in a million different ways, but these strands can still be seen.

The Adiyogi brought this possibility that a human being need not be contained in the defined limitations of our species. There is a way to be contained in physicality but not to belong to it. There is a way to inhabit the body but never become the body. There is a way to use your mind in the highest possible way but still never know the miseries of the mind. Whatever dimension of existence you are in right now, you can go beyond that – there is another way to live. He said, “You can evolve beyond your present limitations if you do the necessary work upon yourself.” That is the significance of the Adiyogi.

Imagine going to sleep, and instead of having 'normal' dreams, you 'woke up' your mind within the dream, and were able to control it?

It's called 'Lucid Dreaming' and It's a very real and very interesting phenomenon. Lucid Dreaming is the ability to 'control your dreams' every night. It's achieved by activating or learning to activate a certain part of your brain while sleeping.

The part of your brain you're learning to activate is the same part that's responsible for your self awareness in the waking life. It's how you 'know' you're awake or not.

By learning a few techniques, you can unlock this part of your brain so that when you're dreaming, it 'wakes up' giving you full awareness of the fact you're dreaming. It's really easy to learn how to do this as well.. Read on!


Enter Lucid Dreaming

The word 'Lucid' simply means clear. It's a clarity of mind, and an awareness of self. Most people can learn how to control their dreams in just a few days/weeks, and it takes only a few minutes each day to cultivate the skill.

'How do you do it?' you may be wondering...

It's all about building two habits.

1. Remembering and writing down your dreams and
2. 'Testing your reality' with reality checks every day

Remembering your dreams

It's essential to actually remember your dreams in order to be able to control them and have beautiful 'Lucid memories'. Everyone dreams every night, but only a fraction of people actually remember, in detail, those dreams.

The reason is simply that they don't practice remembering them. If you don't pay attention to things in your life, you'll tune them out. You need to get into the habit of writing down your dreams every morning in order to start naturally remembering the things you get up to in the dream world.

A good way to start is to get a 'dream diary' which can just be a notebook. Keep it by your bed and every morning, write down your dreams in as much detail as you can manage. Even if you can't remember anything to start with, just write the date and then 'no dreams recalled'.

It's all about training your mind to start remembering the dreams. You could try highlighting important events, people and places in the dream entries as well.



Doing 'Reality Checks'.

This is the main thing to learn in order to start controlling dreams. A reality check is when you 'ask yourself' if you're dreaming or not. You combine this question with a physical action that has very specific results.

What this means is you'll do something that has different results in the dream as it does in real life. An example is to try and breathe through your nose while pinching it closed. In real life of course, you won't be able to breathe, but in the dream when you do this, you'll be able to breath as normal.

The idea is that by doing these 'reality checks' enough times during the day, they'll filter through into your dreams and when you do them in the dream, you'll instantly realize you're dreaming and your mind will spring into action, allowing you to be aware of the fact you're dreaming, and therefore to control it.

Some example reality checks:

• Trying to breath through your nose while it's pinched
• Trying to push your index finger through the palm of your other hand
• Looking at text, then looking away and looking back (In the dream, writing and text is normally distorted and hard to read. Also it appears to change each time you look at it)
• Looking at your watch (In the dream, every time you look back at a clock or a watch the time is different

So a great way to start controlling your dreams would be to do one or more of those reality checks about once an hour, every day. When you do them, ask yourself 'Am I dreaming?' and REALLY doubt your reality. Look around you as you do the reality check, and really question it.

After a few days, you'll notice that you perform a reality check in your dream and you'll instantly wake up the part of your brain responsible for self awareness. You'll become 'Lucid'. It's very common to get so excited when you first achieve this that you wake yourself up.

This is normal, and with practice you can learn to stay in this state for longer and longer periods of time.



You can use Lucid Dreaming to overcome nightmares

Learning to become aware of your dreams in this way allows you to have much more control over your nightmares. Often people are able to simply 'walk away' from their nightmares, simply be realizing that they're dreaming.

A very common technique for Lucid Dreamers when experiencing a nightmare is to simply ask the scary element of the nightmare; 'What do you represent?' This question results in your unconscious mind basically talking to your conscious mind.

So in a nightmare about being chased by a dog, you could turn around to the dog and ask it what it represents. The dog will stop chasing you and respond with an interesting bit of information about your psyche.

It might say 'You never really got over your fear of dogs' or 'You're scared of getting hurt in relationships'. The answer can be profound, and it instantly removes the power from the 'scary' element of the dream and gives you the power.

It's a very useful technique to use, specially if you experience regular nightmares. By learning how to Lucid Dream you'll be able to overcome these nightmares and even learn interesting things about your mind and the way you really think and feel.

While on Earth, there are many lessons in the form of various experiences for souls to learn from and gradually evolve. There are many lies in our world about our true history and what it is to be human on this planet. We have been stripped off our divinity enslaved by the so called rulers who invaded Earth many thousands of years ago and still continue to feed off all the negativity emanating from the planet. And there is ample food for them if we continue to live in the lower vibrations ... We get easily trapped within the matrix unable to see the extent of mind control and manipulation through the senses. Our minds are constantly on with something and we block our connection to source energy, blocking other Chakras or Energy Centers with issues we may have left unresolved. We don't know this but we really are creating our lives journeys and experiences ... and there comes a time when we may find ourselves not being able to connect with the people we once hung out with because we now have different world views and find it hard to go back to how things were, once we become conscious of our actions. Each one of us here is alone and on a unique journey. We evolve by choice ...

Here is a beautiful article by Barbara Max Hubbard, "Evolution by Choice, not Chance !"

Evolution is evolving from unconscious chance to conscious choice. We are entering the first Age of Conscious Evolution. Why? Because we obviously affect our own evolution by all the choices we make—from the food we eat, the number of babies we have, the cars we drive, and the weapons we build.

Humans have no experience at being responsible for global change at this level. We are facing the possibility of the collapse of our life-support system, or, I believe, the emergence of something new, something better than we have ever known before. This shift in evolution began overtly in 1945 when the United States dropped the first atomic bombs on Japan. The signal went out to the world: We now have the power to destroy life on Earth. I was fifteen years old.

I could see at that time that self-conscious humans, in top-down competitive structures such as nation states, organized religion, and global corporations, could not handle this degree of power. We had suddenly gained capacities we used to attribute to our gods. We can blow up worlds, and we can build new worlds in space. We can travel with the speed of light by image; we can create new life forms or destroy our life; we can tap into immense energy or run out of energy.

I began to ask a great question: What is the meaning of our new powers in science and technology that are good and what are positive images of the future that are equal to our new powers?

I read religion and philosophy as a young girl and found that no one knew the answer. The powers were so new. I went to Bryn Mawr College and found I could not even ask the question there. There were no subjects on it. My father used to say to me, “Barbara, you are the best in the field…but there is no field!”

I went to Paris in 1947 to study at the Ecole des Sciences Politiques. Despair and a sense of the absurdity of life were rampant in Paris after two world wars and the bomb. One day I was having lunch on the Left Bank, and a handsome American walked in and sat down next to me. I asked him my question: “What do you think is the meaning of this new power that is good?” He responded, “I am an artist, and I am seeking a new image of man commensurate with our powers to shape the future.”

The idea crossed my mind, “I’m going to marry you!” And I did. He told me that when a culture loses its story and its image of the future, it declines. We had clearly lost our story of progress, and the image of humans now portrayed in the arts and theater was of a disintegrating destructive force. Yet I had innate hope and had to find out what I was hopeful about.

I went to see President Eisenhower in 1952, just after he became president. My father was an old colleague of the President. I was taken into the Oval Office. He greeted me kindly: “What can I do for you, young lady?” “Mr. President,” I said, “I have a question: What do you think is the meaning of all our new power that is good?” He looked startled, shook his head and said, “I have no idea.”

So it flashed in my mind, “Well, we better find out!” This has been my life quest, and I believe that just now we are discovering the proper response.

We do have a new story. It is the Universe Story. When we place ourselves IN this 13.7 billion-year universe story, we discover the pattern and an evolutionary process of action that we CAN DO.

We see that our crises are comparable to past evolutionary shift points. The only difference is now we are conscious that we are causing our own extinction. This is what I call “conscious evolution”—the greatest wake-up call we have ever had for the human species to grow up!

Here are some lessons we can learn and apply to our own situation. Problems are evolutionary drivers.

Crises Precede Transformation

Evolution takes jumps through greater synergy: separate parts coming together to form a new whole greater than and different from the sum of its parts.

Evolution creates radical newness. Once there was no Earth, then Earth appeared. Once there was no life, and life appeared.

Evolution raises consciousness and freedom through more complex order. According to Teilhard de Chardin, the great philosopher, the “noosphere,” the mind sphere or the thinking layer of Earth, with all our Internet and global intelligence, is about “to get its collective eyes.” We are about to connect center with center and heart with heart.

Empathy is rising. Spirituality is growing. Healings are happening. The Internet is connecting us everywhere. A “Wheel of Co-creation” is forming in every field and function: innovations in health, education, energy, conscious business, and environmental awareness are accelerating and beginning to connect—a whole system breakthrough out of the whole system breakdown.

We need one more conscious effort to connect the positive to make the shift in time—to midwife our own birth toward the next stage of our evolution. We may be one fraction of an evolutionary second from either connecting what is creative and loving and innovative, or devolution and extinction. This situation is dangerous…yet natural.

What do we need to do right now?

I believe it is time to rapidly connect what is working in every field and function and communicate through all media as fast as we can our creativity, innovations, and capacities to make it through together. We should be calling upon each other—everyone on Earth—to know that they have a part in this “birth.” Each of us is given an impulse of evolution within, a heart’s desire to realize our greater potential. Wherever we are, whatever our situation, we are capable of “giving a gift to the shift,” from one phase of evolution to the next.

Melanin is a molecule which derives its name from the Greek word, Melanos, which denotes the color black. Melanin is the fundamental unit of the universe and can exist in four forms including Cosmic Melanin, Planetary Melanin, Plant Kingdom Melanin (chlorophyll) and Animal Kingdom melanin (black pigmentation).

Some of us might get confused between Melanin and Melatonin ... here are the differences ...

• Melanin is a pigment produced by tyrosine, whereas melatonin is a neurotransmitter produced by tryptophan.

• The main functions of melatonin are the modulation of the synthesis of melanin, maintaining the sleep wake cycle and biological rhythms in the body, whereas that of melanin are providing skin color, photo-protection, and involving in hearing.

• Melanin is synthesized in melanosomes, which are found in melanocytes, while melatonin is synthesized in the cells of the gastrointestinal tract, retina, and pineal gland.

• Melanin can be found in skin, eye, ear, hair, and central nervous system, whereas melatonin can be found in brain, liver, intestines, blood and muscles.


The following text is from the youtube channel, 211 Network who's video is featured below in this post ...

Time and conflict have conditioned us to fear what we do not understand. And our misunderstanding has been based on a lack of knowledge; of others, and of ourselves.

Getting to the core of truth about the human condition in an objective manner, one can shed light on facts that have been kept in the dark, and attain a higher understanding of truths Indecency and hatred have no place in a world of pure knowledge and understanding.

For at least a century, people have tried to preach equality for all, crusading based on the premise that we are all the same. Some vouched for fairness by insisting we are "created equal." It seems as if it were only those who wished to keep peoples of the world separate that would cite and declare our differences. And though they, at times, brought forth dishonest claims, they reign successful in keeping peoples apart to this day.

The truth is we are alike in the sense that we all have common ancestry. This is proven. We have a shared ancient heritage, even with our wide array of lineage. But we are different, a truth we must accept and discuss openly with one another. In the classroom, the household, governing bodies across the globe, and possibly the cosmos, et al.

Imagine a world without inhibitions concerning our differences. A world where, instead of denying these differences in fear of offending each other, we examine and celebrate these differences.

The following is an example of employing an objective approach toward one of the biggest indications of our differences -- skin colour; melanin being its primary determinant.

The topic of skin colour affects all of us. And even in today's world where we are coming together more than ever through social media, internet and overall the advent of technology, the colour of our skin remains a "touchy-untouched" subject because of our unwillingness to fully accept, examine and embrace our differences. That, plus the fact that melanin is a natural substance found in all of us, is the reason the example is used.

The following clip, an excerpt from a documentary called "Hidden Colors 2: The Triumph of Melanin", serves as one example of our potential to go beyond what history dictates about a characteristic of a people -- looking objectively and without bias at the physical, undeniable, provable traits posessed, with the characteristics serving as mere indication -- to in turn celebrate what makes humanity strong and determine where our weaknesses lie.


The film is not a reflection of the ideals of the uploader. One must admit that the documentary presents a black versus white dichotomy, a mindset that subtracts from the very idea behind the presentation of this clip to you, the viewer.

So that said, The.211Network asks that you heed the message within the message. That message being that humanity can abandon the "a priori" approach to judging people -- if we are even to judge. The message is that our differences, when explored, can open our eyes to the human condition; its brilliance and resilience, the make-up of our collective . And when the knowledge gained is taught and applied universally, the world and its inhabitants can be at least a little better for it.

Go beyond what the historians teach and what religions preach. Go beyond indoctrinated science and political etiquette. Go beyond the system employed. Go beyond, by regressing to true reason.

It is apparent that there is a vast amount of knowledge about ourselves and our potential that is not as accessible. You each have a short amount time to realize your full potential. And ignorance could be bliss, but you owe it to yourself to know what you are missing.

From the makers of the classic documentary film, "Food Matters" comes yet another eye opener titled, "Hungry for Change". The film exposes shocking secrets the diet, weightloss and food industry don't want us to know about. Deceptive strategies designed to keep you coming back for more. Find out what's keeping you from having the body and health you deserve and how to escape the diet trap forever.






Most of us know the truth deep inside, but sadly our inner voice of intuition has been subdued systematically by the so called 'rulers'. By playing with our senses they keep us entrapped in this prison reality while most of us are totally oblivious of it, living an illusion of freedom and independence. Meat, Dairy, Sugar, Artificial Sweeteners, Preservatives, MSG, Color ... the list of toxic chemicals added to our food is endless and the only way to beat this system is to go Vegan ... Eat Organic, preferably home grown food as much as possible. You'd rather invest in good health than feed the pharmaceutical companies which keep us coming back for more, profiting from our sickness.

The facts are in front of us and we can no more ignore the truth and look away if we want to continue as a species on this planet.

May the light always guide us along our journey ... whatever the destination may be !

For those of you who have never heard of the 'Archons' ... The first references to the Archons can be seen in ancient Nag Hammadi Text ... The Nag Hammadi Library, a collection of thirteen ancient codices containing over fifty texts, was discovered in upper Egypt in 1945. The Nag Hammadi material contains reports of visionary experiences of the initiates, including first-hand encounters with inorganic beings called Archons. Gnostic teaching explains that these entities arose in the early stage of formation of the solar system, before the Earth was formed.


This is exactly what Gnostics said about the Archons: they can affect our minds by subliminal conditioning techniques. Their main tactics are mental error (intellectual virus, or false ideology, especially religious doctrines) and simulation. Archons are predatory, unlike a wide range of non-human and other-dimensional beings also known to the Gnostics, beings who are benevolent or neutral toward humanity.




"The Archons influence the way you perceive the world, not the world itself. The primary power in the world we inhabit is the indwelling divinity of the planet, the Gaian intelligence, called Sophia by the Gnostics. If you are aligned to the Gaian intelligence, you do not see the world as a place of fear and predation, but of beauty, bounty, and magic."




Physical descriptions of Archons have been found in several Gnostic codices. Two types are clearly identified: a neonate or embryonic type, and a draconic or reptilian type. Obviously, these descriptions fit the Greys and Reptilians of contemporary reports.





John Lash on Archons ...


The unique emphasis on the Goddess Sophia is the high inspirational message of Gnosis. The ancient seers taught that, through a special link to the Goddess, our species can overcome the Archons and secure a better future for Earth.

The stiff resistance towards sharing the truth about Cannabis and all its potential benefits in the media is proof that someone doesn't want the world to find out that its being lied to systematically by our so called governments and law makers for so many years. They still continue to suppress all natural cures while making the population sick with toxic food and an unhealthy lifestyle while providing temporary relief through pharmaceutical drugs which do more damage in the long run than most are inclined to believe. Ted Talks and TEDx have been censoring and banning certain videos because 'someone' thought this information isn't for the masses. Thankfully in today's world of the internet it is hard to keep the truth hidden for too long.

In this article, Mike Zappy transcribes the contents of a talk on cannabis and how it's going to change 'life as we know it' that he had intended to deliver at a Tedx event in Boca Raton. The text was approved by the organizers and Zappy was scheduled into the event but a few days later he received an email from the same organizers cancelling his talk. They said that 'Boca Raton was not ready for a talk about cannabis'.

Zappy wants to take a stand against what he believes is the hypocrisy of Tedx, an event that is supposed to break barriers, and is publishing his talk in full here.

Mike “Zappy” Zapolin
I’m here today to explain to you “How Cannabis is Going to Change Life as We Know It,” and why you don’t need to be afraid.

What I’m speaking to you about is somewhat controversial, but also inevitable … so what I’d like to do is help get everyone over their fear of what cannabis is and what it isn’t.

For the last 25 years I have wanted to be in the cannabis business, but never really wanted to go to jail so I just waited. I always knew there was something positive about it beyond its psychoactive effect; something intuitively told me that there was a healing component to it. Unfortunately there was nothing concrete for me to point to; the plant was made illegal back in the 1930s so there have been no major scientific studies done to back this up.


I’ve seen the amazing healing power of this plant in my own life … a friend of mine had a daughter who was severely brain damaged during child birth, the family spent every moment of their life tending to her trying to give her joy, but it was unclear how much their efforts were really doing. The family was desperate and decided to break the law and try giving her cannabis oil, the results were shocking, within seconds of taking the cannabis oil her seizures stopped and she was able to enjoy life at a whole new level. The question is how can something that sounds that amazing be unavailable and even illegal?

I knew that to understand the answers to these questions I needed to start by studying the cannabis plant itself, and here’s what I found.

Cannabis Sativa comes in two varieties, one is the traditional marijuana plant that is smoked, vaporized, and eaten for its psychoactive effect. The other is called industrial hemp, which is used worldwide as a food ingredient and to make products like rope and clothing.

What is virtually unknown is that there are over 70 different elements in the plant including a group referred to as Cannabinoids. What makes this really interesting is that each one of us has an endocannabanoid system in our bodies that allows us to interact with these different elements. The question is … why would we have this system inside our bodies unless we were supposed to be interacting with this plant?

This chart shows just a few of these elements found in the cannabis plant … there’s THC that produces the feeling of being high, but that has also been known to alleviate nausea and stimulates appetite, which is why it has been recommended to patients going through chemotherapy. Then there are the also the Cannabinoids with their different names and abbreviations. Most widely known today is Cannabidiol or “CBD”, this is the one that has caught peoples attention with its ability to potentially heal seizures in children like my friend’s daughter. It turns out that the natural ability of CBD to reduce inflammation is why it has shown to be effective at eliminating lesions on the brain that cause the seizures. This natural inflammatory can also be effective against the pain associated with diseases like diabetes, which is painful specifically because of the inflammation in the body.

What wasn’t realized until recently is that the Industrial Hemp variety that is non-psychoactive, has naturally high levels of CBD, higher than are found in the typical marijuana plant. Industrial hemp characteristically has less than 1% THC and high levels of CBD. The evidence is showing that these Cannabinoids are not specifically a cure for epilepsy, colitis, diabetes, or cancer, but what they’re doing is helping boost your own immune system so you can naturally fight off whatever it is that’s ailing you.

A friend of mine who was the chief science officer for a major vitamins company, began studying CBDs a year and a half ago. After studying it for about a year he felt he knew enough about CBDs to test it on himself to help combat the intestinal colitis which had been ruining his life. He began taking the CBDs and within a couple of weeks all of his symptoms disappeared and it has now been 6 months and he has not had a single episode.

Companies are beginning to create specific formulations to replace the current slate of pharmaceutical drugs, like Prozac, Oxycodon, and Ambien. As an example, many cannabis smokers have realized that after leaving their cannabis unused for a long period of time, once consumed, get the psychoactive effect but they will become very tired, this is because the THC has turned into CBN, which acts as a natural sleep aid. This is how an Ambien replacement will be derived – it will be all natural and have no side effects

So how can something this amazing not be available? As usual, with any conspiracy, it’s important to follow the money. At one time in United States history, hemp was the number one crop because it is so incredibly strong and cheap to grow. Some of the many uses of hemp were rope, clothing, building materials, sails in ships, and as a bio-fuel. Not to mention the Constitution of the United States is written on hemp paper. There were also some very powerful industries and individuals that played a huge role in the prohibition surrounding hemp. The Dupont family controlled the cotton industry, which saw hemp as an obvious threat. William Randolf Hearst’s newspapers were printed on paper and he owned significant timber reserves. These powerful families wrote the very legislation that outlawed hemp and funded the propaganda campaign known as “Reefer Madness” where they predicted that marijuana would make people go insane and destabilize society. Many industries since then have also been threatened by cannabis and have fought hard to keep it illegal. The pharmaceutical industry fears it because they can’t patent and own it, and the alcohol industry sees it as a natural enemy. Our own government, it is said, has kept it illegal for the reason that they don’t need everyone walking around freethinking, asking questions like “Why am I paying taxes? Why are we in so many wars?”

Einstein is famous for saying, “You can’t solve any problem with the same consciousness that got you into the situation.” This means to me that if we want to solve the big issues in society like violence, anxiety and addiction, we need to change people’s consciousness. Nature knows that people are highly stressed and is trying to bring this plant out to change people’s collective consciousness and bring about healing to our most menacing diseases.

Prohibition is being lifted after more than 70 years and every application will play a critical role in your life. Hemp is going to once again become the number one crop in the United States and will again be used in a wide spectrum of applications that add value to our everyday lives. Because of the natural strength of its fibers, it has the potential to be the base material in most 3d printers. Scientist recently became excited about a material called graphene, which has incredible conductivity and is touted as the material that will allow us to have a computer that folds up like a newspaper. The graphene mining stocks are all of 10x or more. Interestingly enough, it turns out that hemp is actually a better conductor than graphene and it doesn’t need to be mined. It grows quickly and is very cost effective.

Recently the government allowed the growing of industrial hemp, leaving it up to the states to regulate the growing. Unfortunately, the law currently says that the plant needs to stay in the state that it is grown in, which is why most of the hemp being sold today in the US is produced in Europe and Canada.

Everyone here today owes it to this plant to make sure that it becomes available as soon as possible by petitioning their government officials and getting out to vote for cannabis related issues. Even today Marijuana is designated as a “Schedule 1” drug in the United States. The definition of a Schedule 1 drug is that it is highly addictive and has no medical benefit. How can it still be claimed to have no medical benefit? Because we have allowed a handful of special interest groups control our access to the future we deserve!

When future civilizations look back, they will see that the suppression of this plant was one of the biggest human atrocities to ever take place, so let’s make sure that they see our generation as the one that took a stand and righted this wrong.

Much thanks to Graham Hancock for sharing this on his website.

'The Shaman's Last Apprentice' is a narrative documentary focusing on the story of Rebekah Shaman, who in 1997 followed a vision she received from a Shaman calling her to the Amazon, where she found and studied intensively with a powerful Ayahuasquero Shaman in a little village nestled in a remote corner of the Amazon rainforest. Now she tells of her unique story working with the Shaman and Ayahuasca to connect with Mother Earth.

What follows is a warning from the Shaman to the West that we urgently need to change our relationship with each other, and with mother Earth.
Only when we understand how vital each one of us is to the future unfolding of this planetary story, can we find the courage to let go of the fear, evolve consciously, and step into our own power so we can be the change.

For a land of traditional knowledge and wisdom of the ancients, India has today become a place where its people have forgotten what it is to be human while chasing material wealth and sensory pleasures like the rest of the human population on Earth. In India we find all kinds of folks ... some awake and aware .... some who seem deeply archaic and medieval in their world view to the techno savvy robots tuned into the Matrix with obviously no idea of the extent of mind control and manipulation that goes on in our reality.

Before western medicine and pharmaceutical drugs came into the scene mankind always relied on natural remedies to cure any diseases and ailments. Cannabis for instance has always been used as medicine throughout various cultures around the world and is now making a resurgence on the world stage as a potential remedy for all kinds of ailments and disorders that affect the human body. I came across one such shining example of someone being cured of Cancer using Cannabis Oil in India. The story was shared on Facebook on a highly popular page called 'Being Indian' sometime in November last year and has managed to fetch close to 25,000 likes with about 10,000 shares and thousands of comments which shows some signs of the truth finally reaching out to the masses. Its up to us now what we choose to do with this information.





Viki Vaurora used 500 gms of Ganja buds and extracted all its medicinal properties to its oil base, concentrated with THC and CBD compounds. 14 gms of oil was extracted from this process and was ingested in small doses for a period of 2 months. Leela who was suffering from cancer for a long time wasn’t able to eat, talk, walk or sleep peacefully because of the the damage done through chemotherapy but after 2-3 days into the treatment by Viki, she was able to eat and rest without any pain.

Here is the full story ...

What an amazing day with some great news.

A couple of months ago, i was talking to my cousin regarding the amazing benefits of CANNABIS and the reasons for it being illegal. She being an Ayurvedic doctor was quite surprised to learn about the medicinal values of the plant and later informed me that one of her neighbour and a family friend, LEELA, was suffering from cancer. The chemotherapy had damaged her to an extent where she wasn't able to eat, talk, walk or even sleep peacefully. She was throwing up like 20 times in a day and she had to pop like half a dozen of prescribed pills at a time to null the side-effects of the toxic chemo injections. None of the prescriptions was helping her in anyway.

Next thing we know, we asked the patient if she wanted to switch to the "REAL" medicine. A sacred plant, filled with medicinal compounds to cure any disease known to man, CANNABIS / MARIJUANA or commonly referred to as GANJA, in India.

I got my hands on half a kilo of plant buds and extracted all its medicinal properties to its oil base, concentrated with THC and CBD compounds.

14 grams of extracted oil, ingested in small doses over a period of 2 months.

Our patient is now cancer FREE.
And her doctors are curious to know HOW?

Just 2 or 3 days into the treatment, she stopped throwing up completely and was able to eat a little and also rest without any pains.

And in the course of next two months, she healed herself completely.

Thank you Leela for being a brave patient, handling the powerful medicine on a daily basis and finishing your treatment.
Thank you Sowjanya for your brave support in letting me do this. Our world needs more open-minded doctors like you.
Thank you Sushmitha and Harshith for accompanying me in the very long extraction process. (still owe u guys the pizza that we never ordered that night)
Thank you Abhiram for you greatest support. This couldn't have happened without you.
Thank you Sowju and Sowmya for taking the test dose.
And thanks mom, for helping me clean seeds from half a kilo of plant
You are all awesome - Viki Vaurora

Many of us who have blindly accepted Ganja or Cannabis as a dangerous drug still continue to live in our bubble reality, oblivious of the truth. Its only after having done some research into the subject can we truly understand how this really works and the ulterior motives of the big pharma and the-powers-that-be to suppress natural cures and herbal remedies while pumping toxicity into the vast majority which continues to sleep in a perpetual state of ignorance. It is time we speak the truth as we know it and help ourselves and the planet of all negativity and lower, pesky vibrational frequencies which seek to keep us in their control. There are many folks who are beginning to use Cannabis as medicine and there are scores of articles in the mainstream media on the potential benefits of Cannabis which should enlighten and awaken the masses, hopefully !

The only way we can free ourselves from this invisible prison is by gradually taking our power back, one step at a time. Once we stop feeding this system, we become more self sustained and connected to our roots, which is the need of the hour. Let's grow our own food, our own medicine ... let's change our world, one step at a time. The truth cannot be suppressed for too long ... we must be the change now. Its time !

Let's gear up for a Cannabis Reprise in India !

Join the Community for Legalization !
