I have always been interested in others beliefs, I find it fascinating as to the different ways that we believe in a Creator and the different ways that we worship or don't worship, I find it interesting that those that profess to be atheists at one time did believe in something and for some reason or other decided to turn away from the belief that they were exposed to, now I'm not saying that that's neither right nor wrong and it is their choice and that's the way it should be, no one should be forced to believe one way or the other and no one's belief should be forced upon another. I believe that the more we learn about others and the way they believe and the way they worship, the more choices that we have to decide which is the right way for us as an individual. I also believe that all religions and cultures have a basic belief and that is the belief in a Creator and I also believe that the Creator is the same for all of us, we just call him/her by different names and worship him/her in different ways, but deep down inside at its very core it's all the same.osay

What I do remember clearly however is that it was stated the scientists were entirely at a loss as to the meaning of this. Back then, the thought would run through my mind that they should probably ask the Shaman .... Anyone knowing better by now?

I have met many people in the "esoteric circles" talking about a necessary cleansing of our Earth, but hardly ever willing to let this kind of talk become a clear picture. What about our memories, individually and collectively? What do we really know about ourselves?

Working the nightshifts, diligently. Peace and Love to you and all.

By cleansing I simply mean that we will cleanse ourselves of the ego. I believe we will keep all of our memories, personality and such but we will be more united in spirit rather than divided.

The sacred circle is a very good example of how we can be.

Blessings and Love back to you

I come and sit in silence, to listen and learn, and know that all that have entered into the sacred circle has much wisdom to offer to all. I sit and learn and listened with respect to others and to honor those who sit among me and I am humbled by your presence, may the Creator of us all look over this honored gathering.osay

ptsum, I just watched TV featuring "Wild Appalachians - Mountains of the Cherokee": despite much reading, it's only now I find REAL answers to this quest of the heart. Need not say much more, except that I'm slowly slowly finding a way home, understanding a calling that's never going to cease.
Not to worry, it's gonna last longer than this lifetime!
Back to silence ....
