Words are Windows (Or They're Walls)


I feel so sentenced by your words,

I feel so judged and sent away,

Before I go I’ve got to know

Is that what you mean to say?

Before I rise to my defense,

Before I speak in hurt or fear,

Before I build that wall of words,

Tell me, did I really hear?

Words are windows, or they’re walls,

They sentence us, or set us free.

When I speak and when I hear,

Let the love light shine through me.

There are things I need to say,

Things that mean so much to me,

If my words don’t make me clear,

Will you help me to be free?

If I seemed to put you down,

If you felt I didn’t care,

Try to listen through my words

To the feelings that we share.

—Ruth Bebermeyer

Talking To Plants

You may wonder how aboriginals all over the world have been using plants for medicinal purposes. After all, how do you figure out what they’re good for if you don’t do any “scientific studies” on them? David Ike, a popular conspiracy theorist, had been going on and on about how native peoples of every culture have been “talking” to plants to find out their medicinal properties. Poor Mr. Ike has been labeled a crazy person!

Here is an excerpt from his book, “The David Ike Guide to the Global Conspiracy (And How To End It)”:

“Credo’s wife, Virgiia, talks every day to the plants that she grows for traditional medicines she uses to treat patients for AIDS and other problems. She tells the plants about the patient and asks them to help. She takes only as much of the plant as the patient needs and the plants don’t die as a result. They are involved in the process of healing through this telepathic communication, and respected for what they are—consciousness.”

No more scorn for you, Mr. Ike! Some researchers have been shedding light on the matter! It turns out, plants talk after all—you just have to listen! Plants react to signals coming from other plants, and animals! Why not from people? When hooked up to a lie detector, you can actually listen to the frequencies they give off. Apparently plants don’t like it when they sense shrimp falling into hot, boiling water (just one of the experiments that had been done on them). I think I’d cringe too!



Perhaps we can develop some technology that lets us hear trees screaming when we cut them and turn them into paper. At least that would make a difference.

God, Speak To Me

The child whispered, 'God speak to me.' and a meadow lark sang.

the child did not hear.

So the child yelled, 'God speak to me! ' and the thunder rolled across the sky.

But the child did not listen.

The child looked around and said, 'God let me see you.' and a star shown brightly.

But the child did not notice.

The child shouted, 'God show me a miracle! ' and a life was born.

But the child did not know.

So the child cried out in despair, 'Touch me God and let me know you are here! ' Where upon God reached down and and touched the child.

But the child brushed the butterfly off and walked away unknowingly.

The Perversion Of Language And English

I'm interested in discussing Kymatica’s view on the perversion of human language. Some quotes to discuss:

“Dean Winter reproduced an experiment to prove that the ancient languages of Hebrew and Sanskrit, when spoken create vibratory frequency that moved matter into sacred geometrical patterns. “

“The alphanumeric translation from Hebrew to English shows a complete reversal of the two languages, giving cymatic effect unnatural results”.

“A degradation of language in this case is shown to affect biology”

We wondered why in the world we’re all so attracted to modern English (if it’s such a hypothetically perverted language). Where did this language originate from?

Excerpts from Wikipedia:

“English is a West Germanic language that developed in England and south-eastern Scotland during the Anglo-Saxon era. As a result of the military, economic, scientific, political, and cultural influence of the United Kingdom from the 18th century, and of the United States since the mid 20th century, it has become the lingua franca in many parts of the world, and the most prominent language in international business and science.”

“Historically, English originated from several dialects, now collectively termed Old English, which were brought to the eastern coast of the island of Great Britain by Anglo-Saxon settlers beginning in the 5th century. English was further influenced by the Old Norse language of Viking invaders.

After the time of the Norman conquest, Old English developed into Middle English, borrowing heavily from the Norman-French vocabulary and spelling conventions. The etymology of the word "English" is a derivation from the 12th century Old English englisc from Engle, "[the] Angles".[13]

Modern English developed with the Great Vowel Shift that began in 15th-century England, and continues to adopt foreign words from a variety of languages, as well as coining new words. A significant number of English words, especially technical words, have been constructed based on roots from Latin and Greek.”

Excerpts from a strange book I’m reading by Peter Moon (entitled: Synchronicity and the 7th Seal).


About Doctor John Dee (scholar, and occultist)

“A “channeled” language from the mouth of the archangels, the Enochian language given to Dee has baffled scholars as it has grammar and syntax all on its own. In Elizabethan days, scholars generally wrote in Latin, Greek or the King’s English. Dee broke with tradition when he recorded this major work in “vulgate”, the version of English spoken by the common people. Due to this uncommon act, Dee has been considered in magical circles to have started the tradition of the English language. In this regard, English is attributed to “Anglish”, the language of the Angels. Ironically, “Anglish” or English also properly refers to the language of the Angels who long ago settled in the British Isles. “

…

“The founding of the English language has also been attributed to John Dee, but there are at least three others who either share or compete for this distinction: Christopher “Kit” Marlowe, Francis Bacon, and William Shakespeare. There is not much question to historians that the most popular catalyst with regard to the proliferation of the English language were Shakespeare’s plays. Great literature, when scripted into a new form of writing which captures the vernacular of the people, literally creates and codifies what then becomes a language. It was only after Dante’s Inferno, the first book to be written in Italian, that the Italian language actually became known and recognized as a language on a broad scale.

Most scholars recognize that Francis Bacon was the most likely candidate to have authored the plays of William Shakespeare. There is an excellent portrait of the “face” of William Shakespeare in Manly P. Hall’s Secret Teachings of All Ages, which shows how the portraits of Shakespeare and Bacon are one and the same. Bacon was a pupil of John Dee, and there is no way to measure the latter’s influence. Like Elizabeth, Dee and Bacon are inextricably related… As for the real Shakespeare”, he is historically known to have been illiterate and have spelled his name as “Shakespere”. It appears that he was chosen as a deliberate stooge to obscure the true author. There are other theories and historical claims as to who was behind the writings of Shakespeare, but the most interesting one, although it is not credible to most historians, revolves around considerable intrigue that actually did take place. This concerns Kit Marlowe, the author of Faust. Marlowe is the first author on record to write his plays in English blank verse. After this, all major English playwrights, including the writer of the Shakespeare plays, soon followed suit. “

Etymology: Apple

“In terms of religious mythology, one of the most flagrant examples of a geometric shape being integrated into compassionate intentions is that of the human heart. Anyone who has studied sacred geometry, particularly as that which has been taught by Stan Tenone of the Meru Foundation, will recognize that the geometry of the human heart can be seen in nature’s creation of the apple.

Although the heart is recognized as a good thing, the apple is depicted as evil. The etymology of the words evil and apple are revelatory. Evil derives from the Middle English ivel which is suggestive of “I will” (Germanic people pronounce the v as a w). This in turn derives from the Old English yfel which is suggestive of “I fell”. These trace back to a hypothetical etymolology of the Indo-European upelo or upo which means “up”. The word evil also suggests “Eve ill” or the idea that Eve is ill. The most scholarly etymologies of Eve will indicate that it is another name for YHVH or Tetragrammaton. The word apple is derived from the Old English aeppel which means fruit, apple or anything round. It is akin to the Old Irish aball or the Welsh afall. Again, we are referred to “the fall”. “

CYMATICS

And for those of you who can't wrap your head around how language could create "geometric patterns", here are some stuff on the field of Cymatics. It is the study of how sound (or vibration) affects form/matter.

Sanskrit: Language Of The Gods

It's quite common for people in spiritual circles to try to learn Sanskrit. It's one of those ancient languages that produces sacred geometrical vibrations (see: Cymatics). Ancient Aramaic languages are said to be more pure and can be used for manifestation.

I heard Sanskrit is pretty difficult to master, but I found lots of online resources.

Crop Circles 101

I was surprised to find my co-worker never heard of the term “crop circle”— and even more surprised that most people lack minimal background knowledge! Personally, I have a deep fascination for crop circles. I make it a habit to search crop circle databases like The Crop Circle Archives monthly in hopes of uncovering the next crop circle design.

WHAT IS A CROP CIRCLE?

Crop Circle: a geometric pattern, often very intricate and complex, appearing in fields, usually wheat fields and usually in England.

The Skeptic’s Dictionary offers a reasonable explanation. Rather than assume crop circles form any old geometric pattern though, I’d link them directly to sacred geometry. Moreover, crop circles are now found in countries all over the world, including Germany, Switzerland, Italy, The Czech Republic and Canada.  China and South Africa are the only countries deprived of crop circles.

I’d like to add that crop circles are a phenomenon; one that is no longer limited to crops! When you think of crop circles, you may imagine a wheat field, but as of late, the “Circle-makers” (term coined from Barbara Hand Clow’s Alchemy of 9 Dimensions) have experimented with other bizarre mediums, like ice and snow!

UNIQUE CROP CIRCLE CHARACTERISTICS

Artists and pranksters have been able to mimic the crop circle phenomenon by “beating grass”, or using a wooden device to flatten crops. Some pranksters lead the public to believe that all crop circles are hoaxes.

To combat their ignorance, the Circlemakers have created more and more complex crop circles, spanning great distances. Considering how fast authentic crop circles appear (literally in the blink of an eye), it would take an amazing engineering fit to produce similar results. See Arguments Against The Hoax Theory Of Crop Circles by Joseph E. Mason.

General Characteristics of Authentic Crop Circles

• They appear mostly in the middle of the night, in a matter of seconds
• Crop circles often span great distances
• The more sophisticated ones display complex, geometrical patterns
• The crops affected show signs of radiation; crops are permanently bent at a 45 or 90 degree angle
• Only a particular type of crop (or medium) is targeted; any other plants, grass or crops inside the composition remain untouched
• Plants in genuine circles are weaved together in a particular way when they are flattened; the plants overlap each other, and gently spike into the standing crop in a spoke-effect creating the circle
• Crop circles have increased electromagnetic measurements at the center (10 times the radiation level of a normal field)
• Sometimes emanate at 5 KHz frequency just a few days after formation

Of particular interest are the sample crops taken from crop circles. Plant stems inside the formations show an increase in diameter, as if the plants had undergone intensive heating. This effect perfectly matches the radiation pattern of an electromagnetic source at a height of four meters and ten centimeters above the field.

Crop circle formations often appear in canola (oil seed rape) fields. The crops have a consistency like celery. If the stalk is bent more than about 45-degrees, it snaps apart. However, in a ‘genuine’ crop circle formation, the stalks are often bent flat at 90-degrees.

HISTORY

Even though we think crop circles appeared in modern times, there are accounts dating far back in history.

Fairy Circles (Fairy Rings)

A fairy ring is a naturally occurring ring or arc of mushrooms. Folklore across many European traditions warns about trespassing into fairy rings. They were believed to be the location of gateways into elfin kingdoms, or places where elves gather and dance.

 “The Mowing Devil”

The earliest documented crop circle is that of the “Mowing Devil”, in 1678. Legend has it that a landlord refused to pay the price demanded by a laborer to mow his field. The landlord swore that he would rather have the Devil mow it instead. That night, his field appeared to be glowing, as if it were engulfed in flame. The next morning, the field was found to be perfectly mowed—unnaturally perfect.

CROP CIRCLES AND SPIRITUALITY

Scientists are too baffled to come up with any reasonable explanation for the occurrence of crop circles! A large number of crop circle enthusiasts turn to spirituality or answers.

The Realm of Sacred Geometry and the Merkabah

An easy to way to look at “crop-circle technology” is from Drunvalo Melchizedeck’s point of view. He wrote plenty of books on the topic of sacred geometry, and how it relates to the Merkabah. What is the Merkabah? Some ancient texts refer to this as the “chariot of light” and you can think of it as the inner “spiritual technology”. Practitioners of Kundalini Yoga and Merkabah mediation claim to have jump-started their own Merkabah. Many people believe that ETs are actually using their internal Merkabah to travel through different dimensions.  If humans can do it, why not ETs? We often hear of sightings of strange, organic, alien ships made of pure light that seem to expand or contract. This coincides with the crop circle witness reports of expanding discs (or balls) of light.

Here is an introductory video on sacred geometry:

The Study of Cymatics
Another explanation lies in the field of Cymatics. Cymatics is the study of how sound affects form. Sound a bit strange? (No pun intended) Actually, it isn’t. You can see some Cymatics experiments on YouTube. All you need is a good, flat, metallic conductor, some really light particles of matter – and sound waves! When you change the sound frequency, the particles form different symmetrical patterns. This may be the technology the Circlemakers are using. These experiments have also been performed with water as a medium.
Here are some videos on cymatics experiments:

WHY SHOULD WE CARE?

Spiritually-oriented people believe that a higher intelligence is attempting to communicate with us. What are the messages in the crop circles? It depends on the crop circle! Probably the most classic crop circle is the one in Barbury Castle in England. It clearly spells out PI! See Crop Circle Depicts PI for a complete explanation.

Meditating on a crop circle design is said to be highly beneficial and can even trigger one’s “cellular memory”.
