Entheogen : Awakening The Divine Within

Entheogen literally translates creating or generating god within, and this ancient knowledge of sacred plant teachers has the potential to transform the world if we can connect with the divinity within and all around. 'Entheogen Awakening the Divine Within' is a feature length documentary which invites the viewer to rediscover an enchanted cosmos in the modern world by awakening to the divine within through the ritualistic use of Entheogens or Psychedelics.

Stan Grof, Marilyn Schlitz, Ralph Metzner, Alex Grey, Terence McKenna, John Markoff, Daniel Pinchbeck, and Kat Harrison among others, postulate how the disenchantment of the modern world may be remedied by summoning the courage to take the next leap in the evolution of planetary consciousness.

The film examines the re-emergence of archaic techniques of ecstasy in the modern world by weaving a synthesis of ecological and evolutionary awareness,electronic dance culture, and the current pharmacological re-evaluation of entheogenic compounds.

Within a narrative framework that imagines consciousness itself to be evolving, Entheogen documents the emergence of techno-shamanism in the post-modern world that frames the following questions: How can a renewal of ancient initiatory rites of passage alleviate our ecological crisis? What do trance dancing and festivals celebrating unbridled artistic expression speak to in our collective psyche?

How do we re-invent ourselves in a disenchanted world from which God has long ago withdrawn? Entheogen invites the viewer to consider that the answers to these questions lie within the consciousness of each and every human being, and are accessible if only we give ourselves permission to awaken to the divine within.

Jesus Used Cannabis : Holy Anointing Oil

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Cannabis , Entheogens 22 Comments

The word Cannabis derives from the Hebrew word Kaneh-Bosem which literally translates 'Fragrant Cane' and is known to have been an integral part of healing rituals during the time of Jesus and considered a holy sacrament by the ancient wise ones. Jesus did in fact use the same herb as his ancient semitic ancestors, and which is still used by people around the world for its enlightening and healing properties. Jesus used cannabis based oils to heal eye and skin diseases and his very name derives from being anointed with cannabis enriched holy oil.

The Greek title "Christ" is the translation of the Hebrew word Messiah, which in English becomes "The Anointed". The Messiah was recognized as such by his being anointed with the holy anointing oil, the use of which was restricted to the instillation of Hebrew priests and kings.

"Anointing was common among kings of Israel. It was the sign and symbol of royalty. The word 'Messiah' signifies the 'Anointed One', and none of the kings of Israel were styled the Messiah unless anointed."

The ancient recipe for this anointing oil, recorded in the Old Testament book of Exodus (30: 22-23) included over nine pounds of flowering cannabis tops, Hebrew "kaneh-bosem"( pluralized ; singular is kaneh-bos), extracted into a hind (about 6.5 litres) of olive oil, along with a variety of other herbs and spices. The ancient chosen ones were literally drenched in this potent cannabis holy oil.

"Knowledge and healing were two aspects of the same life-force. If to be rubbed with the 'Holy Plant' was to receive divine knowledge, it was also to be cured of every sickness. James suggests that anyone of the Christian community who was sick should call to the elders to anoint him with oil in the name of Jesus The Twelve are sent out among their fellow-men casting out demons and anointing the sick with oil (Mark 6:13)."

Awaken to the wonderful gifts the Hemp Plant has to offer, assisting us towards creating a more sustainable ecological balance with Mother Earth.

Daniel Pinchbeck on Psychedelics at Horizons 2008

Cosmic ૐ Oneness 2012 , Daniel Pinchbeck 0 Comments

Horizons is a annual forum for learning about psychedelics. It is hosted by Judson Memorial Church in New York City. It's goal is to open a fresh dialogue about psychedelics and rethink their role in medicine, culture, history, spirituality and art. The Speakers at Horizon 2008 were Daniel Pinchbeck, Allan Hunt Badiner, Robert Forte, David Nichols, Ph.D., Roland Griffiths, Ph.D., Dimitri Mobengo Mugianis, Dan Merkur, Sasha Shulgin, Ph.D. and Ann Shulgin, Psyche and Delia, Alex and Allyson Grey, Sean Helfritsch & Isaiah Saxon, Rick Doblin, Ph.D. and Bob Wold.

Psychedelics are a unique class of psychoactive drugs that have been used by humans for thousands of years. In the 1950s and early 1960s, academic research with psychedelics yielded important discoveries in psychology and neuroscience. Just a few years later, they entered popular culture across North America, Europe and the world.

Questions about their safety, medical value, history and implications in politics and culture were unfortunately answered with numerous myths spread by both their users and the media. The millennial rave fever brought a similar wave of popularity and hysteria.

Recently, a renaissance in psychedelic research and dialogue has taken shape. Horizons brings together the brightest minds and boldest voices of this movement to share their insights and dreams for the future.

Daniel Pinchbeck is one of the founders of Open City, an art and literary journal. He was a 1999-2000 Fellow of the National Arts Journalism Program at Columbia University and has written for many leading magazines. Author of 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl (Tarcher/Penguin, 2006) and Breaking Open the Head (Broadway Books, 2002). He is also the Editorial Director for Reality Sandwich.

Daniel Pinchbeck on The Future of Psychedelics

Beyond the potential for psychedelics in medicine and psychotherapy, these substances may have importance as tools for creativity, scientific innovation, and spiritual communion. As psychedelic research develops, we can look at the role of plant teachers and shamanism in tribal cultures for perspectives on what the future of psychedelics might hold for our desacralized postmodern world.

DNA Activation : Evolution Of Human Consciousness

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Chakras , Cosmic Consciousness 9 Comments

DNA is often called the 'blueprint of life' and the DNA blueprint remains in every living cell and continues to provide information about how the cell must function. It does this by controlling the proteins that are made within cells and the blueprint is passed to every new cell that forms. Junk DNA as it's popularly known is the part of our DNA which does not code for proteins and researchers believe this is where we harness our latent PSI Abilities such as Clairvoyance (Clear Vision), Telekinesis, Teleportation, Claircognizance (Prophetic Knowing), Telepathy, Clairaudience (Clear Hearing) and Clairsentience (Clear Sense).

Following is a recent article by Mary Desualniers on DNA Changes & Psychic Consciousness ...

Recent discoveries in the nature of DNA have overthrown the idea that man is genetically fixed. The Human Genome Project has uncovered two interesting facts about human genes: a) man has 30,000 genes( only 300 more than a mouse) in the human DNA; b) only 10% of the human DNA is used for coding and reproduction of proteins; the rest –approximately 90%-- is known as junk DNA which scientists have considered garbled and redundant. However, the Russian Branch of the Human Genome Project , headed by renowned Dr. Pjotr Garjajev, has uncovered the linguistic and psychic capabilities of junk DNA, ushering in a re-evaluation of the human gene in terms of words, wave genetics and a grammar of spirituality.

DNA Changes and Words

According to the findings of the Russian Scientists, the genetic code follows the same rules found in human languages. By modulating certain frequency sound patterns on a laser ray, they are able to influence DNA frequency and genetic information. The most interesting aspect of their discovery is that simple words and phrases can work just as well as laser beams. Man can literally reprogram his genetic blueprint through words--which explains why affirmations and hypnosis can have powerful effects on mind and body.

DNA Changes and Wave Genetics

This discovery also points to the significance of sound frequencies and vibrations in the origin of human life and the possibility that creation was generated by waves of consciousness. The Phantom DNA effect is a case in point: the energy field of a DNA sample remains detectable by laser light even when the physical sample is removed. At a fundamental level, man is pure energy. In Wave Genetics, the junk DNA functions at a rich infrastructure level of super codes and wave communication, realized in material form as crystalline structures—dynamic gene-holograms in liquid crystals of the chromosome continuum. What this model suggests is that the human gene is part of larger holograms (multiverse) of wave information reality. Hyper-communication, in the form of remote sensing, remote healing and telepathy, is definitely a part of the human protocol.

DNA Changes and the Grammar of Spirituality

Is it possible that the linguistic structures of the human genome point to a form of universal speech, a grammar of spirituality? William A Tiller in Psychoenergetic Science: A Second Copernican-Scale Revolution (Walnut Creek, CA: Pavior Publishing, 2007) certainly thinks so. Man, he explains, is composed of a personality body self and a “rich infrastructure ...in subtle bodies” that lead to ”greater human performance and expanded capabilities”. The purpose of life is building this infrastructure into a grammar of spirituality. Michael Cremo in Human Devolution: a Vedic Alternative to Darwin's theory (Badger, CA: Torchlight Publishing, 2003) claims that man originated billions of years ago in waves of consciousness, but has “devolved” into an ego-driven modern counterpart , alienated from the group consciousness and spirituality of his ancestors. Group consciousness can bring about the healing of the earth. If weather can be influenced by Schumann’s frequencies, man, who is capable of resonating at these frequencies, can through group consciousness bring about changes that dissolve violence and restore earth to its natural balance. DNA activation is ultimately a matter of gradually building one's own multi-dimensional awareness and abilities through one's own efforts. It is a journey towards wholeness and higher frequency attunement that becomes a reality only when individuals have become autonomous and self-empowered.

David Wilcock's The Science Of Oneness

Cosmic ૐ Oneness 2012 , Aether 0 Comments

David Wilcock's 'The Science of Oneness' Convergence Volume Two, goes deep into esoteric wisdom and brings to light much information concerning the accelerated shift in consciousness humanity is undergoing now and why he believes that consciousness is fundamental to reality and it's evolving to a much higher sense of self, awakening to cosmic oneness, moving towards a singularity where time ceases to exist and all duality is transcended, we awaken to Infinite Oneness !

Following is an excerpt from his book 'The Science Of Oneness' ...

Chapter 2 : The Aether Is Pure, Conscious Oneness

THE AETHER

We live in a harmonic universe, built upon a unified, unseen foundation of conscious, loving energy, known as "zero point energy" or "aether." Up until the 20th century, all Western scientific tradition proposed that such an energy force existed, going back to at least the time of the ancient Greek philosophers, and most likely to a far older civilization with advanced scientific knowledge.

The existence of this aether was supposedly proven to be false by the Michaelson-Morley experiment (M-M) at the beginning of the 20th century, and most scientists still believe that it is correct. There are a number of reasons for why the M-M experiment is flawed, and for our technically-inclined readers, many of the researchers that we will be mentioning have detailed explanations of how it was misinterpreted.

We now know that an “aetheric” science is the only remaining model of the Universe that fits together with the evidence that is now available. Current theories working with these aether concepts, including “Sequential Physics,” "Subquantum Kinetics," "Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics," "General System Theory," "Reciprocal System Theory," "Harmonic Universe Theory," "Maxwell / Whittaker scalar-wave physics" "Hyperdimensional Physics" and any number of “Unified Field Theories,” all agree that our physical reality arises from this hidden energy substance, which creates all that we know and see by vibrating.

And thus, like fishes in the sea, the pressure of this energetic “fluid” constantly surrounds us, though we do not normally notice its presence. In this wealth of new data, the aether fluid is a source of tremendous energy that is in constant vibrational motion, flowing through all objects in the Universe, creating and recreating them every second — just as a candle flame is constantly absorbing new wax and oxygen and radiating new heat and light, but still continues to exist as a measurable "unit."

Should this aether ever stop flowing and swirling about with such an intelligent, purposeful behavior, all mass would shed heat, gradually "dissolve" and return to its primordial energy state; the "flame" would go out.

Indeed, this new "physics of the 21st century" tells us that the very building blocks of mass, the atoms and molecules themselves, are not particles at all. Instead, they are ultimately nothing more than spherical whirlpools of energy in this flowing river of aether. And the aether itself provides the most tangible, scientific way to define, explain and even engineer the Mind of God.

ALL IS ONE

Our ultimate contention is that all of the fundamental fields – gravity, electromagnetism, weak nuclear and strong nuclear force – must emanate directly from the aether, a unifying force of sympathetic vibrations that forms all of physical reality as we now see it. Consciousness is fundamentally interwoven with this process.

If the Unified Field is pure energy, and the energy must move to form all of physicality, then ultimately Consciousness is another from of aetheric movement. Once a person is properly trained, they can use their consciousness to create motion in the aether in any of its forms, including the commonly observed force fields. And as the Russian scientists have demonstrated, this is no longer speculation; this is experimental data.

Manifesting The Mind : Documentary On Psychedelics & Shamanism

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Andrew Rutajit , Daniel Pinchbeck 0 Comments

Manifesting The Mind, a documentary on Psychedelics & Shamanism from 'Bouncing Bear Films' featuring interviews with renowned experts such as Daniel Pinchbeck, John Major Jenkins, Dennis McKenna, Nick Herbert, Alex Grey & Dr. Rick Strassman to name a few. This is the first release from Bouncing Bear Films which comprises of Andrew & Jennifer Rutajit and all other folks from Bouncing Bear Botanicals. 'Manifesting The Mind' gives us a broad perspective on psychedelics, how we can benefit from them and why is the use of psychedelics suppressed by the mainstream media and governments of the world.

Andrew Rutajit attended college for film, but left the field to pursue the writing of his two books, Astrotheology & Shamanism (co-author) and The Vestibule (author). Although his focus was on writing for several years, his passion has always been film - namely directing and production. Andrew brings years of experience and a dynamic vision to all of his work. In 2007, Andrew produced The Pharmacratic Inquisition with Jan Irvin and realized film was where he wanted to focus his creative energy. His first film was well received and became a catalyst for Andrew's current projects. He works with his wife, Jennifer, a writer by trade. She serves as associate producer for all films. Andrew also lectures on various topics, such as religion and entheogens. In addition, Andrew has also dabbled in art and music; as a result, he produces original music and graphics for his films.

Andrew is also the co-owner of Gnostic Media, which is a multimedia production and publishing company geared toward the separation of mythology and reality - historical accuracy.

Jennifer attended college in Boston for art history and has been a copy writer/editor, substitute teacher and curriculum writer. Jennifer is an advocate for various causes, such as animal rights.

With the help of Bouncing Bear Botanicals, they founded Bouncing Bear Films and 'Manifesting The Mind' is the first of a 3 part documentary series called 'Footprints Of The Shaman' to be released by the spring of 2009.

Part 2 will include a discussion with Dennis McKenna, DM Murdock, Timothy Freke, and Peter Gandy on the topic of religion. Several others will be interviewed in this film but these four authors will help lead the way. Part 3 is a discussion on the topic of Christmas. One may ask, “What does Christmas have to do with the ‘Footprints of the Shaman’ ?” This is a good question and we assure you that this question will be settled by the end of this film.

Quotes from the documentary :

" Sometimes there is a tendency in the psychedelic community to almost become like an entheogenic fundamentalist and think that all visionary experience was mediated by psychedelic plants, and the origin of all religions is based on the use of these substances. "

~ Daniel Pinchbeck

Guess what he's trying to say is that the ritualistic use of entheogens is one of the many ways to alter your states of consciousness ! Perhaps one of the oldest known traditions to connect with the invisible universe however not the only one by any means.

[Entheogens present] "... the capacity for the human being to experience infinite love and total self forgiveness ... a sense of deep interconnectedness with the planet, with all people, with the cosmos ! "

~ Alex Grey

" Here is a body of beliefs... and you are just supposed to accept it. Don't ask questions. Sit down and shut up. Entheogens are threatening because they enable people, or sometimes compel people to reject that."

~ Dennis McKenna

Earth Hour 2009 : Switch Off Lights For An Hour

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Climatic Change , Collective Consciousness 0 Comments

We are the Earth and the Earth is us ... a shift in global human consciousness is emergent and is enveloping the entire planet now. Earth Hour is one of the many synchronistic world events organized to create conscious awareness of Global Warming and Earth Changes worldwide. Earth Hour 2009 aims to reach more than 1 billion people in 2000 cities around the world, inviting communities, business and governments to switch off lights for 1 hour and send a global message that we need to take action on climate change. This year, Earth Hour has been transformed into the world’s first global election, between Earth and global warming.

For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote – Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF is urging the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009.

This meeting will determine official government policies to take action against global warming, which will replace the Kyoto Protocol. It is the chance for the people of the world to make their voice heard.

Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights.

In 2009, India joins Earth Hour for the first time. New Delhi and Mumbai are among 825 cities across 80 countries and territories that have pledged their support to VOTE EARTH during Earth Hour 2009. This number is growing everyday.

Noted film actor and icon Aamir Khan will be leading the campaign in India. Many companies such as Google, Infosys, HP, HSBC and Wipro are also supporting the campaign. WWF-India Secretary General and CEO Ravi Singh says: “Earth Hour is a step in the world's efforts to combat the threat of Climate Change and it holds tremendous potential to influence sound policy and people's participation on the issue. Earth Hour is an unprecedented communication initiative to make people understand what they must”.

In 2009, Earth Hour is being taken to the next level, with the goal of 1 billion people switching off their lights as part of a global vote. Unlike any election in history, it is not about what country you’re from, but instead, what planet you’re from. VOTE EARTH is a global call to action for every individual, every business, and every community. A call to stand up and take control over the future of our planet.

People from 825 cities across 80 countries and territories have pledged their support to VOTE EARTH during Earth Hour 2009, and this number is growing everyday.

Richard Branson, Nelly Furtado, Cate Blanchett, Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachhan, Sachin Tendulkar and several other prominent individuals have extended their support for the campaign and urged citizens to turn off their lights. Noble peace prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu and UN secretary General Ban Ki Moon have also supported this campaign and have appealed global citizens to sign up.

So far over 2000 cities from 85 countries will be participating in this campaign.

We all have a vote, and every single vote counts. Together we can take control of the future of our planet, for future generations.

VOTE EARTH by simply switching off your lights for one hour on Saturday, March 28, 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm local time.

“Climate Change is undoubtedly and regrettably, the biggest immediate long-term environmental challenge we face. A failure to come to sound policy outcomes on climate change will not only have a negative environmental impact but also social and economic consequences for all of us. Stand up and join us in the fight against climate change. Support Earth Hour.” - Aamir Khan, Noted Bollywood Actor & Filmmaker

“Climate change is a very important issue facing us today. We are all in a position to make a contribution to help change our planets future. Earth Hour is a great opportunity to make this contribution whether it is turning off lights or a candle lit vigil with our friends. I encourage all of you to join me in supporting Earth Hour.” - Sachin Tendulkar, World Famous Indian Cricketer To invite your friend click here ... be a part of this collective consciousness awakening as the Earth is us and we are the Earth ! How you feel and what you think affects the entire Cosmos ... Darkness is simply an illusion of no light ... be the light !

Diamond Shaped Orbs Karbala Iraq

Cosmic ૐ Oneness Dimensions , God 1 Comments

'Karbala' is a place in Iraq, 100 km from Baghdad at the edge of the desert, surrounded by the beautiful greenery of fruit orchards and palm groves. Karbala is believed to have originated from two Assyrian words 'Karb' which means 'Sacred Place' and 'Ail' which means 'God'.

Some also believe the word is of Persian origin formed from two words which are (Kaar) which means work and (Bolo) which means the higher, thus meaning the 'Higher Work'.

A friend, Zoeb Asif shared some beautiful diamond shaped orb pictures from sacred sites, dargahs in Kerbala, Iraq. On Googling for diamond shaped orbs i found various sites and images, some say it's due to the diamond shaped iris inside the lens in some Sony cameras which make Orbs look diamond shaped.
