href="http://www.ralphbuckley.com">www.ralphbuckley.com</a> Consciousness Awakening.... I don&#39;t know why....but I feel compelled to continue with this...call it what u will....intuition...instinct...but this idea is constantly spinning in my head. It&#39;s very weird...but I remember thinking these same thoughts back when Art did his experiment way back when. I was so riveted during this time. I literally couldn&#39;t wait to listen to Mr. Bell&#39;s show every night...it was way better then cable....(hehe)! I recall wondering why this hadn&#39;t been done or thought of before &amp; why the &#39;powers that be&#39; hadn&#39;t put there monies &amp; resources into a venture that held such extraordinary potential...I was really quite naive then...we&#39;ve never had any real money, nor have we been truly exposed to the corruption of it all, always been poor....&amp; for this I feel fortunate. Never really bothered me much. In the years that Marcie &amp; I were homeless...we didn&#39;t really analyze it then, but we were always taken care of...people, things...necessities came to us....as they were needed. I wish I would&#39;ve been more in tune with the spirit back in those days, I would&#39;ve been more relaxed...for I was constantly in a state of panic and anxiety. anyways....this &#39;consciousness&#39; project is a really delicate matter and we musn&#39;t allow things to become distorted....or lost in hype and money. I think that we need to become accustomed to this idea...the idea of thinking or being as one. Like everything else this takes getting used to...it takes practice. With large groups it becomes extremely evident of personalities that are louder then others...ego&#39;s are incredibly fragile &amp; unpredictable &amp; possibly dangerous. We have to account for this....before we begin. This is why I think we need to keep on trying...until we are comfortable with the idea &amp; more importantly comfortable with each other in what we&#39;re trying to accomplish, again we have to get used to thinking of ourselves as one. When I close my eyes....I think about a flock of birds that can change direction instantly....as one. Thousands of birds that can make a complete change of direction...as one. One mind. One heart. One Love.... I am positive that as long as everyone involved has their hearts in the right place that this could really grow....quickly. We could enter into this online as individuals or groups....small or large...depending on where the comfort zone is with an individual....so we can eventually be able to develop this intuitive ability to think and be as one. To be honest, I don&#39;t want to be the one to lead this experiment. I believe for this to work we&#39;ll need to trade off on who will &#39;moderate&#39; or host certain &#39;sessions&#39;... Just to be sure &amp; positive, I think it would be wise to prevent any one individual to be in control of things, for very long anyways.....if this happens it will most assuredly fail. I&#39;m doing this, because, in my mind, it is the most important endeavor of our time. We need to come together spiritually...without a care for race color or creed....or money. Staying as far as we possibly can from any organized religious beliefs... We are one...and until we can start thinking about ourselves in this capacity....we&#39;ll never get past the differences that have held us back for the ages. ______________ What would be the focus? - perhaps prayer lists? - those who are sick? - without a doubt we should always try to envision a world of peace. But eventually we could attempt to become more specific...specific regions - focus for specific leaders -............ This is always about bringing light.....we can never feed the darkness. The response to this idea in recent attempts has shown great promise...but as I stated in the video.... Most people won&#39;t think of such things as necessities...that is until their very lives are effected by the chaos that our future promises.... If anyone feels inspired....then it&#39;s important that you act on that impulse.... __________________ <a href="http://www.ralphbuckley.com">www.ralphbuckley.com</a> &quot;Shine on Forever&quot; (ralph buckley) <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkX3bMSr8cI">www.youtube.com</a> ________________ note*:...after writing this I came upon a u2b video of Eckhart Tolle on the Oprah Winfrey show...&amp; it just blew my mind.

Let yourself be still. Try to stop being the one in control and just let yourself flow. The more I try to &#39;capture&#39;....to analyze...the more it takes me out of the flow... then the moment is gone...I&#39;m back in the body. Where was I...??? well, that isn&#39;t meant for words...no adjectives will suffice...but... Sometimes it&#39;s like I&#39;m outside, looking through a window at myself...there is no time for self analyzing....there is only the intuitive reaction. Creativity. (Yes even the simple act of &#39;breathing&#39; is &#39;creative&#39;...breath is &#39;spirit&#39;...it is life...) But all of a sudden...I become aware of myself being aware....and the fragile &#39;house of cards&#39; takes its inevitable tumble...the beautiful state of mind that I was previously inhabiting...disappears for the moment.... but like the flowers that hide in the winter will most assuredly reappear in the spring....so I to will somehow return to the beauty of the &#39;quiet&#39; and stillness... ________________ &quot;take what u need (leave the rest)&quot; These images that move across this video are disturbing....but they are necessary. Sometimes I just get so wound up with my own bullshit and trivia...that I become oblivious to those who are suffering...&amp; hungry &amp; dying...

Some songs just help me get through stuff. I was kinda in a trance singing this over and over when Marcie came home the other day. She set up the mics for me so we might try to record right then...I&#39;m glad she did...it is very raw...but what would be the point of smoothing out the rough spots....this is not about aesthetics...its not what&#39;s on the surface that counts anymore. Perfection is like trying to mimic a machine...and a machine has no soul...(not yet anyways)....though I&#39;d like to record this again with a band... ________________ We have all lost someone or something dear to us...some of us our more apt to a talk about it. I sing about it....but I cannot talk about it. It&#39;s just not something that I&#39;ve ever been comfortable with.... all that counts is that I&#39;m here now, and with whatever time I may have left...well I need to spend that time doing something other then appeasing my own selfishness....I&#39;ve already wasted a lifetime doing that. We have all loved and lost, no one is immune to this....but death is not the horrible tragedy that we have been taught to fear...no it is a part of our spiritual journey back home... ...Mystics have always claimed to have had direct experience of the nature of ultimate reality, and seven centuries ago, Rumi, a Persian mystic, wrote the following enigmatic lines: I died a mineral and became a plant; I died a plant and rose an animal; I died an animal and I was a man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying? Yet once more I shall die as a man, to soar With blessed angels; even from angelhood I must pass on ... When I have sacrificed my angel soul, I shall become that which no mind conceived. Seven hundred years later we find the remarkable psychic Joan Grant reaffirming exactly those ideas, which she derived from her own paranormal experiences: &quot;I acquired sufficient empirical experience to see the broad outlines of the progress of an individual during the initial four phases of his evolution. He starts with only enough ability to organize a single molecule. As his experience increases, and his consciousness begins to expand, he requires more complex forms through which to express that consciousness. When he can no longer be contained by the mineral phase of existence, he enters the plant kingdom, then graduates by a series of incarnations as various species of animal, to his first incarnation as a member of the human race.&quot; ________________ YouTube video clips used in &quot;So long ago&quot; yeknup <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/yeknup">www.youtube.com</a> &quot;Hug&quot; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMOyYbpVe4g">www.youtube.com</a> eaglesy <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/eaglesy">www.youtube.com</a> &quot;3d digital album &quot;dreaming angel&quot; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtM5sYGLrUI">www.youtube.com</a> cdewilde <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/cdewilde">www.youtube.com</a> &quot;Multi-Dimensional Orbital Clock and Calendar&quot; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3v1STDr9EY">www.youtube.com</a> Lassoto18 <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/Lassoto18">www.youtube.com</a> &quot;AoI - 3D Hourglass&quot; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWUNKmgftqE">www.youtube.com</a> 06solareclipse <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/06solareclipse">www.youtube.com</a> &quot;Thunderstorm Time Lapse&quot; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cl0aw87LqA">www.youtube.com</a> ______________________ <a href="http://www.ralphbuckley.com">www.ralphbuckley.com</a> 2012 Consciousness Awakening (Cd available now) <a href="http://cdbaby.com/cd/ralphbuckley3">cdbaby.com</a> </p> </div> <a href="/blog/50998-so-long-ago">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/50996-freedom-calling 2008-10-29T15:31:07Z conkling <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hY7o8wduv_8&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hY7o8wduv_8&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/50996-freedom-calling"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/61927" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p><a href="http://www.ralphbuckley.com">www.ralphbuckley.com</a> Freedom...it is a strong word. It&#39;s a word that conjures up a wide variety of imagery in any individual. But like everything else...it has a multitude of meanings and definitions... A man might be free...but still enslaved to the ideas and influences that surround him! I like the way Jordan Maxwell put it: &quot;I don&#39;t trust anyone who professes that they&#39;ve found the truth...implying that there is no need to go any further. I would be much more inclined to befriend someone who is still &#39;looking for the truth&#39;....keeping an open mind. Still open to learning new things&quot;. This is a real pickle....for the one who claims to know the truth...implies that it&#39;s kind of a &#39;closed end affair&#39;, and if you happen to disagree with the found &#39;truth&#39; of an individual...then you may be about to embark upon a disagreement that could very likely end up turning into WW3. &quot;I don&#39;t claim to know the truth...but I do claim to have glimpses of it...however brief...from time to time.&quot; said I to myself... Mind control in the 21st century has become quite the art form for the elite. Just how far the technology has come...is incomprehensible. Science fiction or fact... The little tid&#39; bits of &#39;fringe&#39; information that gets leaked out, here and there, is mind boggling enough in itself. Holographic technology? Human genome project??? Project looking glass??? Genetically Modified food??? this is some of what we&#39;ve heard about. What about the stuff we haven&#39;t heard about??? What about the ground breaking discoveries (or nightmares) of....today??? _______________________ Let us simplify... Whatever faith you choose to endorse...whatever political party or candidate that turns your crank....whatever opinion you may or may not have about anyone, anybody or anything... Doesn&#39;t mean anything whatsoever without.....FREEDOM...!!!! _______________________ Freedom Calling is another improvised &#39;jam session&#39;...again it is more about capturing the moment then it is about perfection... Not that I don&#39;t love producing and multi-tracking and mixing tracks...It&#39;s very much like being able to paint a picture with music...and the effects give you an endless array of colours to choose from. I love recording...and I started doing it when I was young by layering tracks with 2 portable cassette players. I knew that I wanted to do this....a long long time ago. But for right now...staying in the moment is what counts. I would love to expand on this song...let the imagination within your ear hear multiple percussion instruments and a stage full of people joining together. Can anyone see or visualize &quot;Toobstock West - Peace Festival&quot; Do you think we can make this happen? Do you want to see this happen...? There is a lot of folks...right here at u2b who are &#39;Wide Awake&#39; as far as I&#39;m concerned...if you know what I mean...!!! We can start a trend right here and NOW!!! Let us set a precedent!!! Let us give &#39;each other&#39; a voice....4 PEACE &amp; FREEDOM...!!! -------------------------- <a href="http://www.ralphbuckley.com">www.ralphbuckley.com</a> 2012 Consciousness Awakening (Cd available now) <a href="http://cdbaby.com/cd/ralphbuckley3">cdbaby.com</a> Toobstock West -
