Some have suggested that in conflict resolution each be required/> to state the other's point of view to the latter's satisfaction./> Others have said that A should ask his guardian angel to contact/> B's guardian angels. Still others suggest proper semantics for communication, such as I think that, I feel that rather than the implication that ones thoughts are fact. Conflict resolution/> is an art and a science.

The administration said American soldiers would be welcomed in Iraq with flowers. The only flowers seen have been the flowers on the graves of dead soldiers.

Untold numbers of horse have broken legs on the racecourse whipped into dangerous speed by drugs and jockeys' force. The truth was guarded like rare gems.
Warpromoting pastors have picked up the bloody sword Jesus told Peter to lay down. How is it that those who call themselves prolife through their votes are involved in nuclear and other violence' proliferation? They have no more feeling for human beings than butchers for slaughtered animals. paraphrased. As nonsmokers receive carcinogenic second hand smoke from smokers/> so vegans receive second hand carcinogenic benzopyrene in the air from nonvegetarians' barbecues. As there are innocent human animal and tree victims of arsonists, so there are innocents killed from the animal grease/> fires in meat restaurants. As there are human deaths from power outages, so there are tens of millions of unreported deaths of animals in factory farms as their cages become 140 degree ovens in the heat of summer and freezers in the winter. Pro death penalty pastors who ignore Jesus' prevention of an execution in progress sometimes accompany prisoners from death row to the execution chamber, but how many are willing to take their place?

Jesus miraculously replaced the ear and told Peter as recounted in Matthew to put down his sword, that those who live by the sword shall die by the sword. Jesus only instructed the purchase of the sword to underline later that it should be put down. Some ancient religions have become so overlaid with extraneous matter that their spiritual essence has become almost completely/> obscured by it. rays of dawn light.. they need not fight the sunless night as their swords bright fill earth's grail with ageless delight. Some become capable of breaking out of inherited collective mind patterns that have kept humans in bondage to suffering for/> eons. Animals have rights too, in fact two rights and two lefts. I turned vegetarian after 9/11. A friend of mine came back from New York and said that he couldn't stand the smell of burnt flesh. It immediately reminded me of a barbecue.

God's servants answered his prayers, but later the violence he sent out came back to him. Nature shows us only the tail of the lion.

Meditate upon the Murali (the flute) of Krishna and the melody it aroused in the veins of humankind, animals, birds and plants and even hills and rivers, rocks and sand-dunes. I have no doubt that it is a part of the destiny of the human race, in its gradual improvement, to leave off eating animals. Waterfall mist asked the sea when shall I return to Thee? The heart is looking for a home. He was learning not to shut down when shut out, but to pray for the person shutting him out. I set out one night when the tide was low There were signs in the sky but I did not know I'd be caught in the grip of an undertow ditched on the beach where the sea hates to go with a child in my arms and a chill in my soul and my heart the shape of a begging bowl.

The clarified waters of Snowdrop Lake are made of melted hexagonal snowflakes. The heart unfrozen with new love flows as new soulspace does forgiving make. I thought my talent would transcend my outspokenness. I was wrong. The world has been one long slaughterhouse from its beginning to today. Expert witnesses believe they know the truth. But they do not. When Stalin signed a nonagression pact with Hitler the American left behaved like an anthill struck by lightning. The blocks inside people manifest as obstacles in their paths. (paraphrased). God is the sixth element. As dim cellar caged yams send forth pink roots into the dark unknown, so do souls facing change stretch in trust to the future.

So tell me, do celery stalks around the world send cards to fruitarians on their birthdays? It was not a peace officer's rooflight but the sun flashing hello in the rear view mirror, saying the past of everyone is holy. The most effective method of cultivating prema (love) is to practice Namasmarana (repetition of your favorite name for God). Or better still spend your time in Pranavopasana, the repetition of Om. Om is the origin of Creation; it is the source and sustenance and the strength. It is the prana of every being. Just as air forced through the reeds of a harmonium produces the swaras - sa - ri - ga - ma - pa - dha - ni, so the Om is at the root of all the sounds in all the worlds. Know its significance and practice its recitation. SSS: Vol. IV; Page 55.

The mind is a bundle of desires. The hanging of Saddam Hussein by the American regime has united Hindus and Muslims of India in opposition to the violation/> of international law. GOD is the doer; you are but the instrument. Indulgences are a net by which the papacy catches the rich. For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other.

The knower in you dwells behind the thinker. New Canaan is one village that is not missing its idiot.

He that killeth an ox is as he that slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb is as he that cut off a dog's neck...Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their souls delighteth in their abominations. This body is a valueless iron safe; Like the precious jewels kept in an iron safe, There is the Divine inside the body. Satisfying God means to satisfy your own conscience.

What percentage of the bodies returning in coffins of American soldiers in Iraq are Jewish? How can the parrot taste the sweetness of the mango if she pecks at the fruit of the cotton tree? God is Love Love is God and since God is omnipresent so is Love. You have betrayed your heart (whenever you have muzzled its calls for compassion.). Pumpkins and cucumbers can be materialized as easily as rings or objects. But these are perishable objects and the whole point of materialization as I have already explained, lies in their permanence. That is why rings or watches become more serviceable as talismans or means of contact and communication, between the Avathar and his devotees. Emus standing have no access to arms with which to fight off their captors. If killing a man who had killed would bring back the life of the victim, I'd say 'let him go'.

I have to tell my father than I didn't make Messiahship in this life. Poor dolphins struggle to get out of the tuna fish nets ... and cannot. The waters are red from the blood as they are knifed by Japanese fishermen. Other dolphins are killed or injured by ship propellers. A green gourd sinks in the water, but a dry one floats. Become dry. Rid yourselves of attachments, desires, avoid anxieties, worries. Then you can float unaffected in the waters of change and chance. Alexander had a lust for war. Totally corrupt is an unelected system of legality which allows torture of animals and the inflicting of lethality. You cannot undo what God has done. God has created you as perfect. As each movement of the second hand eventually moves the hour hand, so every mantra on a Hindu japamala or Buddhist prayer wheel, every mindful prayer on a Catholic rosary, every call to prayer in a mosque has spiritual power. There is nothing more brutal and horrible than the 'food chain.'. The only thing that saves us from the bureaucracy is inefficiency. An efficient bureaucracy is the greatest threat to liberty. We have no basis to believe that commercial whaling will not continue to reduce whale stocks. Love God with no other thought. Then you become His and He becomes yours. There is no nearer kindship than this. Fifty others may be peeping into the kitchen, hungry and expectant, but if you are the child of the master, you will be served first.

Jesus' life was a libation for the upliftment of humanity. Parvathi, the daughter of the monarch of the Himalayas, was the very acme of physical beauty.

THE DEATH OF THE OLD PLYMOUTH ROCK HEN It was tragic when her time came After a lifetime of laying brown eggs Among the white of leghorns. Now, unattractive to the rooster, Laying no more eggs, Faking it on other hens' nests, Caught in the act, Taken to the woodpile In the winter of execution. A quick stroke of the axe, One first and last upward cast Of eyes that in life Had looked only down, Scanning the ground for seeds and worms And for the shadow of the hawk. Now those eyes are covered By yellow lids, Closing from the bottom up. Decapitated, she did not act Like a chicken with its head cut off. No pirouettes, no somersaults, No last indignity. Like an English queen, she died. On wings that had never known flight. She flew, straight into the woodpile, And there beat out slow death While her curdled voice ran out in blood. A scalding and a plucking of no purpose. No goose feathers for a comforter. No duck's down for a pillow. No quill for a pen. In the opened body, no entrail message for the haruspex. Not one egg of promise in the oviduct. In the gray gizzard, no diamond or emerald, But only half-ground corn, Sure evidence of unprofitability. The breast and legs, The wings and thighs, The strong heart, The pope's nose, Fit only for chicken soup and stew. And then in March, near winter's end, When bloodied and feathered wood is used, The odor of burnt offerings Above the kitchen stove. It's best to wait until the other guy draws because he won't. The highly learned ones, if they succumb to their senses, are worse than dead men. In Paris I lapsed from my vegetarian diet, experiencing venison and venery (venereal disease).

I don't want a heart attack. paraphrased from the movie Deconstructing Harry. Evil is a Peter Pan, eternally young. Don't try to grasp Being with your mind. You can know it only when/> the mind is still. Multiplicity is a delusion. Unity is the Reality. There's no point running after a bird that has flown away. The key to self realization is selflessness. The key to selflessness is surrender to God. No one can liberate you, for no one has bound you; you hold on to the nettle of worldly pleasures and you weep for pain. The kite is pursued by the crows so long as it carries the fish in its beak, it twists and turns in the sky trying to last and it drops the fish. That moment it is free. So give up the attachment to the senses; then grief and worry can harass you no more. You decide to start Namasmarana (the repeitition of the Name of God) 'next Thursday' as if Death has assured you in writing that he will not call on you till that date. It is time to pull our troops out (of Iraq). It's time to rebuild our military because we've got a bad world and they've inflamed terrorism around the world. I think that's very clear to most people. So what's happened there is a civil war that's going to get worse with us or without us. Like a mother who lets her baby play with the toys and only when he begins to cry, picks him up so Krishna lets us chase our desires until we we are sad. (paraphrased). Love animals. Don't eat them. Every year in America up to 15 million dogs and cats are killed simply because there are not enough good homes for them. They are sentenced to death for the crime of being born. But there is an alternative. Doesn't it make infinitely more sense to prevent pet overpopulation through reproductive control than to try and 'cure' it by killing these poor animals? Know the true nature of your Beloved. In His loving eyes your every thought, word and movement is always, always beautiful. Churchill bombed the Berlin Zoo. What, Winston, did a gnu ever do to you? Claim My power. The same power with which I cast out devils is yours today. Use it. If not, I withdraw it. Use it ceaselessly. I never hear the loud solitary whistle of the curlew in a summer's noon, or the wild mixing cadence of a troop of grey plover in an autumn morning, without feeling an elevation of soul like the enthusiasm of Devotion or Poetry. Shed no green blood from Godgrown plants. I need to forgive even on the cellular level. Man must raise the Atma with the leverage of the Atma. (*atma: divinity within each being). There is no disease equal to greed. There is no enemy greater than anger. There is no sorrow that is greater than poverty. There is no happiness equal to wisdom. Under the rays of the ocean moon one sees the rocky temple of Neptune. The temple is gray but its deity sea is blue. The temple is frozen in form.. the sea is flexible and formless. The temple has fallen stones but unchanged is the seathrone. Or canst thou break that heart of his Wha's only faut is loving thee? Israel is the No.1 recipient of American foreign aid, and an easy case can be made that the U.S. has subjugated its own interests to those of Israel.

I've heard nothing but hatred and cries for blood from the state's attorney. Think not on the contemptible worm past of the risen butterfly. As you receive, you must supply the needs of those I bring to you. Not questioning, not limiting. Their nearness to you, their relationship, must never count. Only their need is to guide you. Pray to become great givers. This as my first commission into The odyssey of love. Let it imprint itself on my soul. Being in possession of a finite mind I cannot conceive of an infinite mind. By satsang, the company of God-minded persons, by systematic attention to self control and self improvement, man can overcome the delusion that makes him identify himself with the body and its need and cravings. There is no disease like greed, No enemy like anger, No sorrow greater than poverty, No happiness equal to wisdom. I say 'man' as downbeat for the rhythm of a sentence. A shadow may move but it has no real power of its own. (Negative karma) melts in the sea of love. The only way to know another is not to judge. Then that person reveals himself to you. To judge another denies you of the truth of his divinity. I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is. I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat or a prostitute. 3 quiets merge.. the silent snowsift .. night's fall swift and the stillness of the wilderness. We have a friend who generates heat by rubbing his cold heart against his dry brain. The mantras are eternal. They is not associated with the gunas (attributes). They are nirgunam, niranjanam, sanathanam, niketanam, nitya, shuddha, buddha, mukta, and nirmala swarupinam (attributeless, pure, final abode, eternal, unsullied, enlightened, free, and embodiment of sacredness). Such mantras will always be ringing in our ears. Yhe world is a kaleidoscopic picture created by ones own imagination.

Your lies assert your choices, Your ignorance displays your knowledge, Your mistakes prove your judgment, But judgment day determines your fate. Enpine the cone! Enoak acorn! Enpear the seed that inner sun be freed! Until we have the courage to recognize cruelty for what it is--whether its victim is human or animal--we cannot expect things to be much better in this world... We cannot have peace among men whose hearts delight in killing any living creature. By every act that glorifies or even tolerates such moronic delight in killing we set back the progress of humanity. (Carson is author of The Silent Spring). In just a few weeks, the boats will arrive, and the cries of the baby seals will be those of terror and agony as sealers clamber onto the ice with their clubs and guns. The pristine white of the ice will be stained with the blood of these baby seals, bludgeoned and shot to death so the sealers can sell their skins to the fur industry..... We can prevent this. People who live in glass slaughterhouses should not throw bones. No more toxic carcinogenic killer insecticide spraying. Cities should spend the money instead on free spaying. War profiteers are our countrymen and therefore our brothers and sisters. Because we are one, we confess their sins and ask God that you change their hearts. Anglers are stranglers. In Vietnam, couples treat each other as a guest. They do not undress in front of each other. If you hang this man you turn back to the past. Nothing's changed my life more.

Can't think of anything better in the world to be but be vegan. Underground corpses had fewer rights thought Sherlock than the ferns' shy locks or dewjewelled shamrocks.

As you walk along the road, your shadow follows you, through dirt and dust, bush and bramble, mound and midden, brook and boulder. But, note how the shadow has constant contact with the Feet. So long as the shadow (man) has fast and firm contact with the Feet of the Substance (the Lord), no hardship can affect him. Hold on to the Lord; that is the way to peace and joy. The essence of Man is Divine. The ice sculpture fish melted into his waters of completion. The goal will near you faster than the pace with which you near the goal. God is as eager to save you as you are eager to be saved. I placed a piece of nougat on the ants' highway. As the sea does each drop, all rivers ingather so flows every soul to God Mother Father. The only moment of victory for the champion runner is the precise second he crosses the finish line, when most in the stands could/> beat him. I touch your hands And my heart goes strong, Like a pair of birds That burst with song. My eyes look down At your lovely face, And I hold a world In my embrace. Younger than springtime, are you Softer than starlight, are you, Warmer than winds of June, Are the gentle lips you gave me. Gayer than laughter, are you, Sweeter than music, are you, Angel and lover, heaven and earth, Are you to me. And when your youth And joy invade my arms, And fill my heart as now they do, Then younger than springtime, am I, Gayer than laughter, am I, Angel and lover, heaven and earth, Am I with you!

When the taste of Beauty ripens, it is sweetness. In that experience of sweetness everything appears brilliant and shining. The whole process may be likened to what happens when a flower ultimately becomes a ripe, sweet fruit. Ripeness is all. The Spirit is all sweetness. The lawnmower was tearing through the unfortunate grass like an avenging devil from hell. A heron flew over the bamboo wood.

The only thing different about me now is I'm a mother of three, not a mother of four. (Cindy Sheehan lost her son in Iraq). Expand (do not contract) in response to pain. The legacy of women's war work is our present post-industrial employment structure. It was the war that created the demand for a technologically advanced, de-skilled, low-paid, non-unionized female workforce and paved the way for making part-time work the norm for married women now. A generation later, it was the daughters of wartime women workers who completed their mothers' campaign for equal pay. Clarity about the aims and problems of socialism is of greatest significance in our age of transition. Under present circumstances, free and unhindered discussion of these problems has come under a powerful taboo. She's so bigmouthed she outdoes a Lake Erie lamprey eel.

When one has not forgiven another, the latter has free rent in the former's brain. Changeling tongue. The Vedas have infinite depth of meaning. All may not be able to comprehend the inner meaning of the Vedic teachings. The earth's gravitational force existed even before it was discovered by Newton after rigorous experimentation. Similarly, the eternal truths hidden in the Vedas were perceived by the Rishis (seers) after intense penance and Sadhana (spiritual austerities). Unless one practises their teachings, one can never get happiness or peace. In order to realize the Divine, you have to practise the precepts prescribed in the Vedas. No doubt, even listening to the recitation of the Vedas is itself capable of purifying your mind and elevating you to a higher level. For, it is Shabdha Brahman (God embodied as sound). If you ruminate over it and practise it in your life, you can imagine the magnitude of the bliss you will attain. Alexander's anger... was there any blame to Aristotle?

Mice are spineless from Frankenstein surgery but judges are spineless from cowardice or malice or greed. The stars became our chronicler of love.

Another illegal immigrant hurricane has visited us. I take vitamins daily, but just the bare essentials not what you'd call supplements. I try to stick to a vegan diet heavy on fruit, vegetables, tofu, and other soy products. God's plan for His animal creation did not include their barbecue cremation. War profiteer owned media have tried to prevent the awakening of the American giant with sleeping pill propaganda lies. There is a passage in the Bhagavad Gita which implies a certain kind of karma we undergo in which God removes the memory of us from our loved ones' minds. It is the design of God to teach us certain lessons. Aspire to be good rather than great. (in the context that many who have an ambition for greatness sacrifice on the way what should not be sacrificed). After kidnappers and jail God has made Vanunu new God can even make Sununu new. One need not the foes of light vanquish. As the dawn slowly breaks, they silently vanish. Jesus said resist not evil. Gandhi spoke of noncooperation with evil. Each soul follows his own conscience. There are false flag and other operations called suicide bombings./> All who drop bombs on people, children, animals, birds, and plants/> are homicide bombers. Love is the great miracle cure.

In a dream I asked Mark B how to avoid the pain of an ending relationship and he replied One falls out of the warp and woof of time and space. Diet can remove animal fat from the arteries of the brain increasing intelligence and ending migraine. Lave tomorrow's burden. Christ is the Great Burden-bearer. The Geneva Conventions in prescribing governmental murder as punishment for certain acts are themselves guilty of war crimes. Clients of psychics sometimes misinterpret knowledge of their feelings to mean agreement with their feelings. Where are prisoners? a. in prisons b. in nursing homes c. in the military d. in factory farms e. in zoos f. in slaughterhouses. Christians should thank Judas as an indispensable link in the chain of Jesus' allblessing crucifixion. Noah's Ark at the end of its journey was not a clean place but it was the only safe place. Jesus' stable was not immaculate, but it was full of light. The jail in which Krishna's parents were held was not spotless, but was suffused with spiritual power. When a man wantonly destroys one of the works of man we call him a vandal. When he destroys one of the works of God we call him a sportsman. Freedom fighters' headquarters are called strongholds (a term assigned to demon possession) while mercenaries of war profiteers/> gather in 'military bases'. There is a memorial in Washington to a slaveholder pedophile animal concentration camp operator who erased his predecessor's help for Haitian independence fighters by inviting colonial France back in. He hired people to wage a backstabbing campaign against his opponent. 200 of his slaves were sold at auction upon his death as his many years promise was broken. The university established by him carves up animals. Its law department churns out graduates who keep Virginia in the top 10 execution states. The author of 'all men are created equal' did not include women, the landless, or people of color. You say the Amish are not permitted to say. Actually no Christian is supposed to sue. Creatures shall be seen upon the earth who will always be fighting one with another, with very great losses and frequent deaths on either side. These shall set no bounds to their malice; by their fierce limbs a great number of the trees in the immense forests of the world shall be laid level with the ground; and when they have crammed themselves with food it shall gratify their desire to deal out death, affliction, labours, terrors and banishment to every living thing. And by reason of their boundless pride they shall wish to rise towards heaven, but the excessive weight of their limbs shall hold them down. There shall be nothing remaining on earth or under the earth or in the waters that shall not be pursued and molested or destroyed, and that which is in one country taken away to another; and their own bodies shall be made a tomb and the means of transit of all the living bodies which they have slain. O Earth! what delays three to open and hurl them headlong into the deep fissures of they huge abyss and caverns, and no longer to display in the sight of heaven so savage and ruthless a monster? The best way to love God is to love all and serve all. Knowing that frogfear is engendered by horsehooves, Pegasus grew wings. In India they crush stream rocks with clothes. I'd rather be with Charles Manson an hour after he won the lottery/> than with Albert Schweitzer during a bout of diarrhea. Pornographers are 2 year old children, scrawling their diaper waste on immaculate walls. O God who answers to all names... open the hearts of all beings. All of us are involved in causing human and animal suffering, whether in driving a car or purchasing non organic food or buying machine harvested grains, ignoring those who are in need, speaking or thinking angry thoughts etc. God, who indwells each being forever, who answers to each of infinite names by which You are summoned, now exorcise the world and each of us of the spirits of hatred, revenge, racism, dead legalisms Open the waters of love in each of our hearts... to quench the flames in a world onfire.. let the clouds of peace gather to rain in the desert..let shoots of the green leaves of compassion rise everywhere.. to blossom and bear fruit in different colors and notes...fragrances and frequencies. The door to door salesman woke the man up from a nightmare caused by his falling asleep on his arm and blocking circulation./> In ways we do not understand, all works for the good. Even a serial killer released his victims from the cage of the body and the prison colony of earth. In the world's holiest language, Sanskrit, the word for peace is Shanti. When shanti is repeated over and over it becomes Shantish or Shantishwar, Divinity whose form is peace. To repeat/> shanti is to summon the the God of Peace. Deals under one hundred mil are for shoe clerks. As Jesus did you are now able on butchers and moneychangers to turn the tables. I am at the bottom of every well. He had an appointment with Death in Samarra but because he had a quickened Sahasrara it was joyful to cross the Sea of Samsara... he was not a tiny samara destined for struggle in the Sahara. Within their 6 point jails the snowflakes.. Not yet does light bedeck them with her flecks nor do they dance in streammelt's flux .. but in the spring they, warmer, will quench the thirst of phlox and sparkle on the wool of now freed flocks.	Oh God beyond gender who indwells all hearts and as the Omnipotent/> One is the author of all action, we pray for those who have used their legal skills, clubs, or sadism to promote torture. We pray/> for exorcisms and removal from political and economic power for Michael Chertoff, Alan Dershowitz, Alberto Gonzalez, Dick Cheney, the CIA, the Mossad, MI6, MI5, Norman Schwarzkopf, George W Bush, George H W Bush, Hillary Clinton, Condoleezza Rice, Madeline Albright. As You send Your rivers of grace through their Augean stables, heal them in all ways and always. The word pesticide is another example of human chauvinism, as beings are defined by their perceived positive or negative relationship to humans. Are animals tortured? Torture is imposition of suffering, and not related to the intelligence of the victim. We see only one millionth of the magnetic spectra. Our senses are virtually blind. The faces of starving children won't leave my mind... like uranium waste in a dumpsite. The closer we come to God the closer we come to each other. Two men are in a bathroom. The plutocrat says to the democrat: At our public school they taught us to wash our hands/> after we urinate. The democrat replied: At mine they taught us not to urinate on our hands. Julius Caesar: a wife to men, a husband to women. Physical charm and force can never overpower the charm or force of the Spirit. I want government out of my pocketbook and out of my bedroom. The pioneers of a warless world are the youth that refuse military service. Criticizing others is a form of mud wrestling. THE MAPLE TREE The maple tree that night Without a wind or rain Let go its leaves Because its time had come. Brown veined, spotted, Like old hands, fluttering in blessing, They fell upon my head And shoulders, and then Down to the quiet at my feet. I stood, and stood Until the tree was bare And have told no one But you that I was there. While the young ridicule the old for sitting in rocking chairs, one reason for this is reduction of pressure on the spine and relief of pain. The Methodist John Wesley would not kill cows named Elsie or Leslie not buy her quartered parts in candy from Mars Hershey or Nestle. Come here into the light as a hesitant rose; those stars above quiver as you do. War profiteering is treason. The base of the yod of the activist was conjunct the pluto of another. It was the latter who suffered more. In 31 to 60 years, scorpio progresses into capricorn and the excesses of his youth give way to his reverence for tradition. Princes pound on our portals with pleas we paint their portraits. Animals are sickened in concentration camp factory farms by the crowding, the constant lighting, by being fed the parts of/> other animals in their food which generates Mad Cow like diseases, by the buildup of excrement which can cause histoplasmosis, ecoli (colon bacteria) infections, by antibiotic resistance, by side effects of carcinogenic female hormones they are given, hormones banned by the EU, by the residual effects of/> insectides and herbicides such as Agent Orange which have damaged/> their immune systems. Rather than inform the public of these dangers, the current regime promotes ineffectual 'vaccines' which cause further diseases. It is difficult to entertain a warm feeling for a 'medical man' who can strap an unanesthetized dog on a table, cut his vocal cords, and spend an interesting day - or week- slowly eviscerating/> and dismembering him. I suppose that the researchers do not deny this thimselves -- they claim that despite the wholesale bloody experimentation on animals, the only real proof of the drugs found by the chemists or the operating techniques suggested by the experimentation of animals, must be in the end verified by trying them on human subjects. (Clare Booth Luce: playwright, politician, and wife of the founder of Time Magazine). NASA blew caged animals over 5 states when the obsolete shuttle exploded. The Air Force irradiated chimps at Barnes AFB The Navy has subjected animals to sleep deprivation in San Diego/> and held primates in restraining chairs for months until their deaths in Bethesda. Walter Reed has for at least 108 years been abusing people and animals injecting 22 Cubans with Yellow Fever in 1900. Ft Detrick has slaughtered countless tens of thousands of primates in weaponized anthrax research. Mice have died by the quatrillions not only in laboratories but through insecticides and being ground up or smashed by machine harvesters. unlike pedophilia and serial killing the wearing of furs and hides especially when many are armed with red spray paint cans is harder and harder to hide. Those who eat burgers are of cows' lives the burglars. the animals' right not to be killed is greater than a human's right to kill. I can tell a train has been here. I see his tracks. They're not obscured by newfallen snow. If you're still alive when you hear the thunder, the lightning did not strike you. I knew 2 Venutians who for karmic reasons had been reincarnated on earth. They would not be liberated in their first life because they could not yet love the gross human beings they encountered. Albert Einstein was patient with his illtempered wife. One day exasperated that he was lost in thought, she poured a jug of water on his head. He looked up and said Frequently we have lightning, but today we also have the downpour. (paraphrased). The Bush White House is a crime scene. The veil of maya hides from him the Face of God which is shining from every being and thing around him. Answers are evil. I try to remain in the hub of all possibility. The fence they want to build to keep the aliens out can also keep you in. Intent on fulfilling your legitimate duties, you can pray to God to keep you alive for a hundred years. You will not incur blame. The horse has his hooves The lion his claws The porcupine: quills The skunk: his smell. Powerless are these against my rifle thinks the trophy seeking hunter, unaware he's been struck by lightning until he hears God's thunder. The way will open. God cares and His plans unfold. Find a home and dig in. You are what you think. Yad Bhavam Tat Bhavati (As is the feeling so is the result). If you think you are a man, you are a man. If you think you are God, you are God. The piggy bank is turned upside down to retrieve coins, as the piggy appetite is turned on its head in order to uncover the gold of joy. Love is all around us. Breathe it in... breathe it out. Breathe it in again. The sun looked down and saw dark spots within his aura.. he was upset until he realized that his light blanket spread over all. Caesar's armies marched on vegetables. Is it better to be a venutian than a martyr... to conquer through venus' love rather than mars' violence? Pruning is a synonym for stealing from plants. May the maple leaf no longer be the crimson splash of blood as a hakapik nail of steel slams into the skull of a seal. Her son was totally averse to non-vegetarian food. He would not even visit the houses where non-vegetarian food was cooked. Seeing his noble qualities, Easwaramma realized that the child was not an ordinary one, but one of divine/> nature. Her eldest daughter Venkamma also recognized the divine nature of the child. Together, they brought up the child with love and care. As far as I am able to judge, nothing has been left undone, either by man or nature, to make India the most extraordinary country that the sun visits on his rounds. Nothing seems to have been forgotten,/> nothing overlooked. When doctors struck in Los Angeles the death rate went down.
In India, the government respects its citizens. None need prescriptions from the medico-narco-pharma industrial complex. Thus they are saved many of the hundreds of thousands of iatrogenic deaths yearly which occur in the US. Spiritual healers do not charge as they remove the spiritual blocks/> which have manifested as physical disease. Jesus, Baba, and other miracle workers (there are 20,000 in the UK licensed to heal with their hands) send current into the body through divinely empowered thought, touch, or other action. Eating fishes enables Canadian seal clubbing by adding to the demand for a toxic food which causes stomach cancer, food poisoning, arsenic, chromium, mercury and other poisonings. If you've ever been on a train and caught up to a slower train, the occupants of the other train at one point look motionless, then it looks like they are gliding backwards. Of course you and they are moving forward at all times. This retrograde phenomenon occurs when Earth and a planet reach a relationship when the planet appears to change direction. As this most often happens when Earth is closer to a planet, the effect is meaningful. All planets retrograde--save for the Sun and Moon--and the planets nearer the Sun retrograde more frequently but for shorter periods of time. Out in the home woods, someone's bound to be killing some being. Contempt of court is better an exercise in silence, like meditation. by the light of a burning bridge he saw that all paths are holy. The speed of light prevents us from seeing the wave of light hit the wall after a flashlight is turned on. However we can see the path of the beam as it moves. In a mysterious way, those gifted with the sight of auras can see a small fraction of the moving energy of the Avatar. The Star of the East is the third eye. Women have been on pedestals, men on thrones. There are eco-Judases in the environmental movement. Korea was then the land of the morning calm, the afternoon demonstration, and nightsoil, of fragrant peonies, of a courageous people in South and North who had fought both the Chinese and the Japanese, speaking a language in some ways closely linked to Finnish and Hungarian, a land whose borders almost everywhere were kissed by the sea. The grail of love is ever full and overflowing; it is only The sense that love must be captured that inverts and empties the cup. A coroner sometimes puts a spleen, liver or kidney on a scale in doing an autopsy. But at Arrow Live Poultry Market and other/> poultry markets, living chickens were placed on scales to determine how many pounds of flesh their soon to be decapitated bodies weighed. I am afraid [if the present trend in Vietnam continues] that direct confrontation, first of all between Washington and Peking, is inevitable. God is like a mirror. What you see is only a reflection of your own action and posture. In the slaughterhouse or 'dressing plant' turkeys are suspended by their legs from a conveyor belt, transported to a buzz saw which cuts off their heads, and are then dropped into boiling water to remove their plumage. If the buzz saw misses, the birds are boiled alive. -in the book Animal Liberation-. AA's emphasis on the powerlessness of the alcohol can be troubling. People are defined by what they do, not what they area. Compassion is the foundation of everything positive, everything good. If you carry the power of compassion to the marketplace and the dinner table, you can make your life really count. None of these wars will end until people stop seeing animals and other people as less than themselves--it is a casual killing that they do to eat, or that their goverments do for land or oil or for even no reason at all. Common ground for Muslims, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists: eating the corpses of murdered pigs is a form of barbarism. Only the US military with the goading of Winston Churchill who wanted to intimidate the Russians has dropped a nuclear bomb on civilians. But all nine nuke nations have burned animals and trees alive in testing, in Nevada, Bikini atoll and everywhere else testing occurred. Life is not something to hoard in storage. Any woman who wears furs of a wild animal is blatantly displaying/> her insensitivity. Jnana-agni-dagdha-Karmanam, the Githa says. The flames of Jnana (spiritual knowledge) reduce to ashes the effects of all activities (karma). Some enchanted evening You may see a stranger, you may see a stranger Across a crowded room And somehow you know, You know even then That somewhere you'll see her Again and again. Some enchanted evening Someone may be laughin', You may hear her laughin' Across a crowded room And night after night, As strange as it seems The sound of her laughter Will sing in your dreams. Who can explain it? Who can tell you why? Fools give you reasons, Wise men never try. Some enchanted evening When you find your true love, When you feel her call you Across a crowded room, Then fly to her side, And make her your own For all through your life you May dream all alone. Once you have found her, Never let her go. Once you have found her, Never let her go! Existence is a young child moving through a lane at night; he wanted to hold my hand. Will is often a euphemism for unrestrained desire. Do not plan ahead. The way will unfold step by step. Take no thought for tomorrow. Paper is sacred in Tibet. The dictionary said that the w is silent in the words two, answer,/> and sword. The w, cuckoo bird in the stolen nest of the White House, has angered the vast majority of Americans by not being silent as he promoted the organized violence of war profiteers. Many shepherds have guarded the sheep from the wolves .. not because they loved the sheep but that they not the wolves could murder the sheep for the flesh and the wool.. God give us now a kinder world. To the masquerade ball went a flock of henhawks dressed as peace doves. However their talons could be seen below their hems. Punch and Judy's fights were arranged by one puppeteer as Likud media controls both 'liberal' and 'neocon' warjock pawns of war profiteers. Besides attempting to jail animal rights activists, overthrowing governments, pricegouging, marketing drugs which cause fatalities, strokes, blindness etc., suppressing natural healing methods, attempting to outlaw liability lawsuits, and bankrupting the US Treasury, multinational pharmaceutical companies are now attempting to force citizens to take their medications as they have already done in the military. Light baptizes life wherever it falls. What if your light ceased to lift us from the ground. Abandon all varieties of dharma (righteousness) and only surrender unto Me (God). I have had unwise relationships, mistaking anger for intensity and jealousy for love. The Pope is Catholic. Jesus is beyond the division of sect. In true love there is no pride. Many trout are found dead from gunshot wounds. Certain countries are dumping nuclear waste directly into the ocean, making fish flesh even more poisonous. Man has to attain liberation while in chains. Enlightenment is an end to suffering. Moon circles in orb that God has laid. The sun means not moonlight to fade though by his glow the sky is dayed. I trained him not to train me. The vow Bhishma took to kill the 5 Pandava brothers recoiled on him and he died by the hand of Krishna. Because he was killed by the Avatar he was liberated at the moment of death. She was forced to walk the plank into the ocean of her Self. Of all age groups and both genders, teenaged women are the most likely to become vegan.	God does not dust the summer leaves nor rake the leaves of fall She does not mop up deer' footprints nor dam the waterfall. She does not shovel falling snow She leaves that to the sun's bright glow. Unmowed She leaves the grass to grow Unchained She lets the wild wind blow. The earth and sky will open their purse for you and your life will change. We attain God who is Love by loving. In picking up her or his pen, a writer is more free to ignore the sensitivities of the audience whereas in speaking to someone, that person's thought grid is a brake on expression. Courage and perseverance have a magical talisman, before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish into air. The most important contributor to higher profit margins over the past five years has been a decline in labor's share of national income. That is about to change. Democracy is 3 wolves and a sheep deciding what's for dinner. I have stepped from that region of me that did not love all the time. There were no slaughterhouses in the Garden of Eden. It's easier to pull a wagon uphill than down. In the present moment you can enter the Kingdom of God. God is the Antharyami, the Indweller, and so when He is sought in the outer world He cannot be caught. The out of wedlock birth rate of black Americans is 70%. Smoking is one of the leading causes of statistics. Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference. Coward literally means cow-hearted, but there is no reason to believe cows are cowards. The word is another example of human chauvinism. Nor are many who choose not to engage in response to taunts... cowards. Chicken soup is poisonous to the soul, carcinogenic to the body, and a cause of virtually infinite suffering to innocent chickens. Sunshine, rainshowers, windfans and earthblanket loved the seed of lilac. In growing to her purple fragrance she has not known loss or lack. Crocodiles shed crocodile tears which blend with riverdrops when they are underwater. They cry perhaps when they are hunted. Animals killed for fur chew off their paws to get out of steel jaw traps or have their eyes pecked out by birds of prey while they are held captive, or they die of hunger or thirst. Muskrats/> and beavers are drowned by traps stored under the water's surface./> Factory farmed minks are anally electrocuted, (so as not to harm the coat, gassed (so as not to harm the coat) and suffocated (so as not to harm the coat). Seals are smashed in the skull with a steel spike called a hakapik (so as not to harm the coat). Other animals such as dogs and cats and deer and birds are caught in traps dying or losing limbs. Ermine (whose pelts are no longer worn by British judges) have been caught in cold climates by humans who grease traps so their tongues will freeze solidly to them. I'm building a box, to bury my father's tools; a coffin, where they might rest, until some maestro takes them out, and makes them sing again. 1 million chickens and turkeys, 16,000 cows were suffocated by heat in California when their unairconditioned metal ovens became coffins sometimes reaching 140 degrees. California factory farm owners and politicians are guilty of animal genocide. The morning dove's call is brief because it comes out of eternity on a slender branch of ash. We can't kill evil by killing men. I have abandoned all effort and tied myself to God's sleeve. Ten fingers calyx the chalice, assuming its spherical cup. The prizes of those killed mounts adorn the walls of our pride. we may chance reenter heaven or else in some mild zone Dwell, not unvisited of Heaven's fair light, Secure, and at the brightening orient beam Purge off this gloom:. The antarvani, inner voice, keeps reminding man of his divine nature day in and day out. The sun and the moon are shining. What scientist can make them shine. None. They shine by the power of Divinity. If you go to a rock and say tell me who you are the rock can heal you, bless you, if you don't hurt his feelings by saying 'you're just a lowly rock'. War is war on animals too. People animals birds trees are killed by bombs. People animals birds are blown apart by mines of war profiteers ./> Whales, dolphins, fishes, turtles, sea birds are killed in oil spills from bombing power plants. Animals die on livetransport ships in wartorn ports after standing/> in their own waste, dying of hunger and thirst. Animals die in military weapons research labs. Animals die in military contract 'vaccine' research. Animals are bulldozed (killed or backs broken) in zoos such as Gaza's. Animals are made minesniffers.. porpoises are electroshocked into/> being submarine bomb carriers. Animals are seized, slaughtered and eaten by armies. Just as animals secrete adrenalin fighting for their lives in slaughterhouses, so fish as they are being smothered and are suffocating, secrete adrenalin in panic. This adrenalin is a protein enzyme whose links are only partially broken by cooking. Eating adrenalin soaked meat and fish is the consumption of biochemical terror. The American eagle is possessed.. in need of an exorcist. Presently it rises on the wings of technology, but has eyes only for profits scurrying around on the ground. (based on a parable of Ramakrishna). This cross thing sucks. The Lord takes the Form that the seekers crave for; He is above all Name and Form. Children go to the sweet shop and select sweets representing the animals they love; some ask for the dog, some the peacock, some the horse, some choose the elephant. But, what they desire is the sweetness therein. To say that one Form alone can be sweet is to deny the compassion of God. He is eager to satisfy the yearning of the genuine seeker. The way will open. All My Love has ever planned, all My Love has/> ever thought, you shall see each day unfold. Only be taught. Just/> be a child. A child never questions plans. He accepts gladly. Many people have gotten the flu from the flu shot. The world is on fire. Are words the quenching waters of compassion and illumination, or gasoline poured on the flames? Intelligence agents distribute the Bible to everyone else and keep Machiavelli for themselves. Washington was a Mason, a slaveowner, an avid fox killer participating in hunts, an insider trader who profited from the sale of land for Washington's capital. Washington sat with his feet warm in a heated house while his soldiers' feet froze off at Valley Forge. France and then England abolished slavery several decades before the US. Both should love and serve one another as One. There is no distinction nor any difference between them. Both are One and one cannot live without the other. A dollar circulated to 100 people becomes $100. A dollar in a drawer is a dollar. God took off His clothes and dove into us. Lies bring you fortune, but the truth brings you peace. In the mystery novel, Cheney would die not by his own hand but by his own foot, tripping over a fence as he stalked animals with his rifle. Climb every mountain Search high and low Follow every byway Every path you know Climb every mountain Ford every stream Follow every rainbow Till you find your dream A dream that will need All the love you can give Every day of your life For as long as you live Climb every mountain Ford every stream Follow every rainbow Till you find your dream A dream that will need All the love you can give Every day of your life For as long as you live Climb every mountain Ford every stream Follow every rainbow Till you find your dream. Jesus told Peter to put down his sword. Abba said Thou shalt not kill. The CIA has for decades militarized the churches of the US. Many pastors are either silent and frightened sheep or wolves in sheep's clothing. God, Lord of Peace, dismantle the weapons of violent governments and systems now. Nuremberg was an illegal operation in criminalizing behavior after the fact. He's the last surviving British judge who sentenced people to death. They say he used to order muffins on such occasions.
Bring the Statue of Liberty down off her pedestal that she may truly stand for democracy and freedom. Elect the Supreme Court. Shut down political party ownership of 'voting machine' companies. Make the Senate 1 person 1 vote, eliminating the power of states dominated by the slaughter industries. Decentralize the media. Feed the hungry. Heal the sick. Decentralize and demonopolize the air waves. Maya is of the nature of thamas; it is darkness, ajnana (nonwisdom). Despite our local 'health' department and its insecticide trucksprayed clouds of death seeking to kill every winged one, we saw a firefly tonight, twinkling like a lighthouse. Of the category of all living beings many who call themselves prolife care for only the pre-birth sliver approving executions, supporting war, and harming animals as they eat calves' livers. Love is God. God is Love. Where there is Love, GOD is certainly evident. Love more and more people. Love them more and more intensely; transform Love into Service; transform the Service into Worship; that is the highest spiritual sadhana. All life is worth saving. The release of matter and other possessions is harder for earth signs. They more readily see the divinity dancing in debris, are more likely to recycle. As a deluded sword thinks it slices beams of the sun so do the unforgiving believe they have been harmed. We too can turn water into unfermented purple wine by watering now our greenleaved allgiving grape vines. What is not half the truth, is a whole lie. Somethings are better left unsaid. Into his hand has grown the bow of Yo-Yo Ma. Consider all you meet as the Lord. Show untarnished prema (love)/> towards all who come to you. The river flows on.. meditating... carrying leaves and boats effortlessly, while lost in riverie. An old man was being put to death because of something he did when he was a young man... like waiting 3 weeks before rubbing a puppy's nose in s**t. You are the cause of karma. You are the result of karma. Until you think of Me as separate, Until you fear death, Until you feel you are the doer, Till then only will karma exist. Karma ceases to exist, When I become the doer, When there is no you separate from I, When you realize that, The self is never born and never dies, When all that surrounds you is only God, When you can ignore All physical pains and mental chaos, When all becomes God, Then karma itself becomes God. And what is God? G etting you O ut of D uality And accepting Oneness. From: 'SAI DARSHAN' by SEEMA M. DEWAN. They called wild violet a weed though it was satellite bee'd and scotched these purple fragilities with unconscious facility. Nature is generous with stars and snowflakes.

As in the dark purple of the night appears Milky Way: starry path of light As in the crimson of the Red Sea waters God makes a way for His sons and daughters so does God every day give supplies and show the way. Sailors as they glide take the North Star as their guide The Magi in the desert with Bethlehem's light did abide. Spiritual aspirants take holy ones as their guiding stars. But you can be led by the Star of the Third Eye Inside. Basho taught us the pond has no sound, no refrain.. until violated by a frog, a stone, or fingers of the rain. You're the opposite of a paranoid. You're under the illusion that/> everyone likes you. Some give up tobacco cold turkey. Others give up turkey flesh cold/> tobacco. You seem to be more concerned with the news outside than the nuisance inside you. Not a gold parachute but a diamond one went to Lee Raymond of Exxon Mobil, 400 million worth. Exxon has made over $70,000 in profits a minute, 10 billion in a 2006 quarter, as petroplutocrat pawns in the illegitimate White House allowed international cartels to rape the poor and suppress transportation. The bullies of nuclear nonproliferation say nine nations can have their nukes.. but none else. Let them disarm now.

Shrieks of cageraised netreleased birds shot by Senator John Cornyn foil the silent peace of the cornfields in mornlight acorning while the songs of birds far from Cornyn are in their throats aborning and the sun keeps his promise to return to earth punctually each morning. Maya is a Narthaki, a juggler, an enchantress who entices the intelligence and traps the senses. This Na-rtha-ki can be subdued by ki-rtha-na, Kirthana or the concentrated contemplation of the glory of God. Why is food given to dogs called food and food given to cows and pigs called feed? Because the latter are in most cases on an eventual trip to the slaughterhouse, where they will be murdered, drawn and quartered, skinned, and their cadavers renamed meat and sold in little pieces. If an unripe avocado is thrown against a wall, it will shatter. If a ripe avocado is thrown, the fruit will separate from the seed. Souls ready for liberation are freed by crisis. (paraphrased). The word afterbirth for many means the sheltering shroud ..the swaddling for the newborn .. sloughed after his birth. For others it symbolizes those who are prolife after birth as well as before. Henry confused solemnity with sorrow. If we get into the mind-set of saving rather than wasting and utilizing other materials, we can save the Earth. (re his building his home in Colorado using abandoned tires and aluminum cans)dennisweaver.com. Because the stomach parts of ruminants, known as tripe.. are decomposing they are always overripe. In nature predators kill the sick and the weak, thus leaving the strong to breed. Human hunters kill the best and the strongest, and often just for trophies, leaving the weak to breed. Mother cows grieve for not in distant fragrant groves but in human bellies their infants' graves .. while their babes' blood curdles to fat and adrenalin drenched gravy. If you want to love someone, love Allah. Every time a fruitbearing tree drops free food, wealth is created out of nothing through the agency of a seed, sunlight, rain, and mother earth. Caligula was safe only when surrounded by soldiers, He ordered them to the seashore to gather shells. Bush who is safe only when surrounded by guards ordered troops to Iraq to gather dollars for BP Exxon and Shell. Hunters set traps, mimic sounds of mates in distress, sit hidden in blinds, stalk animals in the woods, often working in darkness as do other criminals. After many lives of wanting to be gracious to visiting friends, Nita decided no longer to have cigarettes around for those struggling to quit. As joyful steam spirals above a cup of berry tea do souls leave their bodies and fly to the Lord. I haven't bought any leather articles for a very long time. My ideal is to be able to avoid all animal products, in food as well as clothing. Love your enemies. You never really know what your friends think/> of you.	All shed blood is innocent blood, whether it is the red blood of a soldier, a hunted animal, or the green blood of a tree killed for/> his wood or because he is in the way of someone's desire. To struggle for each breath is the worst form of suffering. A time came when for a while I was left with nothing on the physical plane. I had no relationships, no job, no home, no socially devised identity. I spent almost two years sitting on park benches in a state of the most intense joy. 3 stages of marriage. 1st stage: 2 lions mating. 2nd stage: male in cage cowering as mate roars at him 3rd stage: male lion made into rug. One cannot lie cheat or steal at the US Naval Academy. This is considered an honor offense. But one can harrass in cruel ways plebes (first year students). When one graduates one can kill whales and dolphins with sonar, use dolphins as bomb carriers and mine sniffers, keep primates in restraining chairs for months at a time.. chairs in which they sleep and defecate as their legs are slowly paralyzed and hope is replaced by despair. One can launch airborn bombs from aircraft carriers which kill civilians and soldiers and animals. And when one graduates, he can in naval intelligence lie cheat and steal. John Connally comes out onto his estate lawn in pajamas surveying the forced auction of his possessions and asks if anyone/> has a cup of coffee. We think caged birds sing, when indeed they cry. Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest. The Bush regime FCC which choked on the gnats of 'unacceptable' words swallowed live elephants by ignoring the treasonable ownership of radio networks. Satan is the reverse mirror image of Jesus. My family were holocaust survivors...we went to England When I was five we left for America. After a few days my mother/> called me up to the deck... to see the Statue of Liberty. I asked her what the Statue of Liberty was and she replied ein tag, alles or One day you will understand all. If innocent powerless voiceless babies are terrorized when they are bombed by billionaire war profiteers, are those who bomb them terrorists? If innocent powerless voiceless animals are terrorized when shipped and butchered, are those who eat them terrorists? George Washington was an avid member of the foxhunting group, described by Oscar Wilde as the unspeakable in full pursuit of the inedible. While the United Kingdom has banned the 'blood sport', it is still continued in Virginia. Negative thoughts are a form of witchcraft, of cursing. Like night's shards slipping away in the advent of the sun, no curse can stand against infinite love. Those who participate in a permanent Meatout save lives 1 bite at a time. One should avoid restaurants in which animal flesh is served. The fish sensed danger seeing the hook danglers He also felt anger as he spied the strangers for he knew that anglers are suffocaters, stranglers. The king and queen of hearts leave the royal chamber And enter through the kitchen door where pots and pans Pile up and the trash of yesterday enters the recycle bin. The illegal U.S. occupation regime had no authority to try or convict Hussein or any of his co-defendants. Real trials for crimes against humanity would have Bush administration officials and Pentagon generals as the defendants. (Clark is former US Attorney General). Anyone who walks by an animal trap in the woods, a fishing line or a lobster trap in the water and leaves it there is complicit in a crime of cruelty. The Light of My Presence is flung across the year to come--the radiance of the Sun of Righteousness. Backward, over the past year, is My Shadow thrown, hiding trouble and sorrow and disappointment. One can only make music through a broken reed said one, while Isaiah said break not the bruised reed. Buddha ate once a day or he fasted. So I am living without fats, without meat, without fish, but am feeling quite well this way. It always seems to me that man was not born to be a carnivore. in a letter written to Hans Muehsam. Robert Redford said Ohioans are really into lawnmowers. This is still true of a majority of landowners, but Ohioans have won federal and local court victories against compulsory lawnmowing. The average dolphin lifespan were their fins and bodies not maimed by propellers, were they not suffocated in fishing nets or knifed by Japanese fishermen nor poisoned by pollution would be 75 years. A dolphin photographer as he was scuba diving saw 3 dolphins herd a shark away from him. The Japanese continue to murder untold tens of thousands of dolphins yearly, with knives and other methods, considering them competitors for fish. The pollutants of the world have filled the sea with so many pcb's,pbb's, so much arsenic, chromium, mercury, nuclear waste, etc. that in some cases marine mammal milk has become contaminated. It is a gilding of the lily for popes to canonize those God has made holy. Everyone is born a saint and remains a saintly sun no matter how thick the cloudshroud. Joyce Kilmer's I think that I shall never see.... a poem as lovely as a tree was published on murdered trees. What percentage of poetry about nature is so published in newspapers, magazines and books? What's black and white and red all over?... the bloody New York Times with its warmonger writers, promotion of fur, destruction/> of woodpeckers, chipmunks, and trees as it uses dinosaur paper,/> its pornographic advertising. Birds and beasts need no Divine Incarnation to guide them, for they have no inclination to stray away from their dharma. Man alone forgets or ignores the goal of life. Eating animals annually causes more deaths than tobacco, booze, war and traffic accidents combined. More than half of deaths in the/> US are a result of animal fat, uric acid, adrenalin or other meat byproducts and their effects on the heart and cardiovascular system. Only an infinitesimal part of infinite being can ever be affected by my personality. All the rest floats past me utterly indifferent to my existence, like far-away ships to which I make futile signals. Why was there more outrage about an inebriated Dick Cheney shooting his hunting companion accidentally than his deliberate serial killing of thousands of cageraised net released birds? Human chauvinism. Tyrean purple.. a beautiful dye associated with the Lebanese city of Tyre . Now Tyre is crimson.. with blood from innocents slaughtered by Israeli bombfire. What is a factory farm? A concentration camp in which animals enslaved in tiny cages are made to produce milk stolen from their babies, egg babies stolen, or in which captive Hansel and Gretel pigs are grown by hitmen butchers for their consumer hirers. In prison lie the pennies' pickpocketeers while free go billionaire purloining petroplutocrats and babybombing war profiteers. Israel is an illegitimate child, a breach birth. Like all illegitimate children Israel needs love and discipline. Wasps make nests in animal carcasses in the woods ... as God begins to replace death with sanctuary. I went to school every day with my John Glenn astronaut lunchbox/> and inside it was wrapped my mother's love. The mirror finds many different personalities projected onto her/> by passersby. The God who fashioned phlox, created chrysanthemums, designed delphiniums, willed wisteria, and materialized marigolds/> wants no one to pluck flowers. Jesus stayed in the Himalayan monasteries of Kashmir and other centers of Eastern asceticism and philosophical inquiry. In Tibet/> Jesus is referred to as Isha which means Lord of all living beings. I was a victim of exhaustion from examining my conscience. A Muslim Palestinian and Israeli Jew lived side by side. They loved each other as brothers. They shared the fruit of the olives/> oranges and lemons which grew on the land of both of them. One day they found the decomposed body of a stranger by the road. They buried his remains on their property line, which in time became olives. Like the dhobi in kneedeep water dying of thirst, man too suffers with the panacea in easy grasp. It is a terrible thing to humiliate a father in front of his family. Humor is the response of the detached to pain. Animal fat in penile arteries reduces virility Animal fat in cerebral arteries increases senility. Adrenalin in ingested animal blood reduces civility. Toxins in ingested flesh increase sterility. Uric acid in cadaverous meats reduces agility. Excess calcium in stolen cows' milk makes bone fragility. If you honour your mother, the Mother of the universe will guard you against harm. Offer the food you eat to God first. Then it is rendered pure and potent.
The beach at Sanibel... an Arlington Cemetery of shells. 6 million kangaroos a year are sentenced to summary execution in Australia by a kangaroo court, a government dominated by cattle, sheep, and roo butchers. What is vimalakshmi? It is vimala, purity, wed to lakshmi, wealth./> The wealth that is blessed and not cursed is money invested in fruit trees, not in liverwurst. Regime leaders: They und UC Davis paralyzing of chimps. And fail to publicize hepatitis from shrimp. They let fast food outlets turn children into blimps. In New York and Washington for war profiteers they pimp And ignore soldiers returning paraplegic blinded or with a limp. There is always a higher incidence of fire, tornado, drought, famine, flood and disease in areas in which animal slavery and slaughter occur. Conversely there is always more peace, health, joy and real security in places in which little animal slaughter occurs. As Uri Geller can bend metal with his mind, so can any focused brain defuse nuclear weapons. It's not important to get something, it's important to keep it. Now real are imagination's figments as the sun does new figs mint. Romeo and Juliet: Their breaths with sweetmeats tainted are. Don't get attached to any words. They are only stepping stones to be left behind as quickly as possible. If I walk a tightrope I must remember to don underwear. Why did the coming Republican primary make them happy? Either the serially killing executioner attorney general or the man who helped throw a national election to war profiteers and professional haters would be gone... like witnessing two warlords fight each other. Less than 7% of the population is Republican. 55% of US voters are unregistered. Of the remaining 45% 3/5 are independent or third party such as Green, Socialist, Libertarian./> Of the remaining 18% over 2/3 are Democrats. Sometimes it is good to write a letter to your inner child. The measure of a man is not how much it takes to make him happy, but in how little. The yearning for God is so deep that all bodyconsciousness is lost, the senses are ineffective, and the mind is inactive, the intelligence is at a standstill, ideas of duality disappear. The individual sees before him only step after step of Aanandha leading him to the highest bliss of merging in Him. If there is an apparent conflict between thought and emotion, the thought will be the lie, the emotion the truth. The strong branches of an old apple tree can support two tons of apples free but only Mother Earth can hold pumpkin spheres of growing glowing gold. I would be more interested in the results if psychiatrists were to examine each other (than to examine prisoners). The Canadian government in 2006 paid fishermen to club seals with pikes of steel. As a sealer killed seals, Harper has killed harp seals. Hunter colors are scarlet..crimson.. from the shedding of innocents' blood Green is the color of God's trees greening. There is no hunter green. There is only .... hunter gangrene... The fishers also shall mourn, and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish. .. And they shall be broken in the purposes thereof, all that make sluices and ponds for fish. Isaiah 18: 8, 10. Anyone can count the seeds in an apple. Only God can count the apples in a seed. You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles, and everything tries to be round..... The Sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are all the stars. The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nest in circles, for theirs is the same religion as ours.... Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves. We are told to hail serially killing judges as Your honor, to address warmonger cardinals as Your eminence, and to call decadent animal abusing 'royalty' Your highness. We are expected to greet thieves of the electoral process as Senator or Mr President. What runs but never gets tired? Water. Radio and tv give more airtime to fire which threatens the homes of humans than flames which threaten the treehomes of squirrels, woodpeckers, chipmunks, robins, sparrows. Even (lowlying) water when it becomes steam can rise into the sky. I expect everyone of my crowd to make fun Of my proud protestations of faith in romance, And they'll say I'm naive as a babe to believe Every fable I hear from a person in pants. Fearlessly I'll face them and argue their doubts away, Loudly I'll sing about flowers in spring, Flatly I'll stand on my little flat feet and say Love is a grand and a beautiful thing! I'm not ashamed to reveal The world famous feelin' I feel. I'm as corny as Kansas in August, High as the flag on the 4th of July No more a smart little girl with no heart, I have found me a wonderful guy! I am in a conventional dither, With a conventional star in my eye. And you will note there's a lump in my throat When I speak of that wonderful guy! I'm as trite and as gay as a daisy in May, A cliche comin' true! I'm bromidic and bright As a moon-happy night Pourin' light on the dew! I'm as corny as Kansas in August, High as a flag on the Fourth of July! If you'll excuse an expression I use, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with a wonderful guy! I'm as trite and as gay as a daisy in May, A cliche comin' true! I'm bromidic and bright As a moon-happy night Pourin' light on the dew! I'm in love I'm in love I'm in love I'm in love I'm in love with a wonderful guy! What is the socalled avian flu? A disease of factory farm overcrowding, of feeding animal parts to other animals, of mountains of chicken waste creating histoplasmosis, and in some cases of Mad Chicken Disease or avian spongiform encephalopathy. People are not allowed to have bare feet in restaurants in which they dine on the rear ends of pigs, the rotting muscles of dead cows, the decomposing thighs of chickens, and the cadavers of fishes. We gather our Self up as one would Gather up and fold a flag on any dull and ordinary Workday. It is in this quietude that love gathers momentum. One can be a follower of Christ or one can support war, but one cannot do both. Birds chirp and cheep above the school chapel, for Chips no longer serves chops to the chaps. The Buddha says it is alright to be angry, but not for more than 1 night. Love is a purifier more sacred than pure fire. Water only the seeds of love, the positive seeds. He decided to prostitute no more adages for Madison Ave or Ad Age. The Ohio River after the rain Has a long sparkling wedding train Merging in her mate Mississippi Together they flow on to the main. Candle flame fear not results if you ignite the snuffed candle's reborn light. Truth spreads quietly and as easily as morning light beams fill the chalice of the skybowl. It resonates in every heart. He is best in humanity who has no enemy among the living beings. Do you want to develop the killskill of a hunter or soldier or the art of love of saints? Here in the figured dark I watch once more. There with the curtain rolls a year away, A year of years .. There was an idle day Of ours, when happy endings didn't bore Our unfermented souls, and rocks held ore: Your little face beside me, wide-eyed, gay, Smiled its own repertoire, while the poor play Reached me as a faint ripple reaches shore. Yawning and wondering an evening through I watch alone -- and chatterings of course Spoil the one scene which somehow did have charms; You wept a bit, and I grew sad for you Right there, where Mr. X defends divorce And What's-Her-Name falls fainting in his arms. Iraqi babies bombed by billionaires keep their appointment with death in Samarra while fall from the trees with the slightest breeze winged maple seedling samaras. Does the conch shell of Hari sing as sweetly of omkar when the living conch was knifed? While Dracula despises dawn's bright sun swords, insomniacs plug out the bird choirs' cheery chirps. Caesar was a husband to his wife and a wife to men. The United Nations is designed to make possible lasting freedom and independence for all its members. In relationships, she missed the first bus. Out in the cold, she grabbed the second.	As the shadow that you cast is reduced bit by bit with every step that you take towards the Sun, until the Sun shines right on the top of your head and the shadow crawls under your feet and disappears, so Maya too becomes less and less effective as you march towards Jnana. Maya falls at your feet and is powerless to deceive you further. Not like a lone beautiful bird these poems now rise in great white flocks startled by God breaking a branch when His foot touches earth near me. Bring your troubles to Me alone said God Calling. And so he offered to God his suffering, each pang of pain, the beat of a drum by which he called on the Lord of Love to heal his own loved ones. Oh God because we are so inconstant and forgetful in our actions, we offer to You now all the food that has ever been is now or will ever be consumed by any being. We ask that You accept our humble actions. Inter arma silent Musae - when the weapons speak, the muses fall silent. It is hard to obtain the company of the noble. It is easy to obtain the company of the ignoble, Pebbles are available in plenty; but it is hard to obtain the precious diamond. Judge not lest ye be judged. When day's azure blues become eve's purple hues then blues are violet. Jesus said to consider the lilies of the field.. they toil not nor spin. God's sun does the spinning for them. Only control freaks mow lawns. Pharmaceutical companies need black lab rats. (a lawyer summing up for a jury deciding on a lawsuit by black families in the book King of Torts). When you're in a hole, stop digging! God only knows. (the response of Khruschev when asked if he was an atheist). Since women find men attractive, why are we upset when men also find men attractive? The acid test by which an activity can be confirmed as holy or sacred is to examine whether it promotes attachment or avoids bondage. Plutocrats making money on war rely on media pawns to help them pick your pockets for their armaments profits. You cannot ask too much (or Me). Those who let killer cats run free make the decision that the freedom of one cat outweighs the lives of dozens of birds, /> mice, rabbits. Are the humans karmically responsible then for those lives in which creatures were terrified before death? Dogs and cats can't get out of the fur coats they're in in the heat and they are totally dependent for a cool environment on their human companions. Vivisectors do not like to be bothered by barking. since dog barks and cries of pain in hospital labs travel up ventilator shafts disturbing patients. Laryngectomies (debarking) are performed on the captive animals. What is less known are laryngectomies on cats... demeowing. These cats can at best softly squeak. All critical attitudes and irritations are forms of hatred. Vines greencurl around the fallen log as children play round the statues of dead warriors. suddenly (night)hastened by me, bringing Thousands of lights, a haunting breeze,. Truth can never be told so as to be understood, and not be believed. When the ax enters the forest, the trees view the handle as one of their own. Between earth and sky the rainbow bends as if to acquiesce To both. Future forensic pathologists will not kill insects in their work. Insecticides are a pernicious example of size chauvinism... of the oppression of the powerless. Resist nothing. The commandment Thou Shalt Not Kill is not asterisked with exceptions in the Bible. Nor is the commandment What God has joined together let no man put asunder. To scotch the life of any being is to break that law of God. Like the donkey that carries sandalwood, without knowing anything/> more than its weight, man too carries the burden of wordly worries, without being aware of the fragrance which he can really/> get from the very burden on his back. His logic was similar to watching a frog jumping from one lily pad to another, and the leaves were sinking under his weight. Reading Leviticus a gentle cow found that it is forbidden to consume cloven hoofed animals. Like a WW1 pacifist shooting himself in the foot, she took an ax to each of her four hooves. Prosecutors like womanizers notch up their cruel victories (paraphrased). From my rotting body, flowers shall grow and I am in them and that is eternity. We're all people. Why should I grieve more for the death of a Jew/> than of anyone else? Bright sunwands as they unfurl cause the chrysanthemum to uncurl .. so cause loverays unbidden to ope heartchambers long hidden. Your relationship with each other is the nest in which your baby will live. There's a hunk of veal in every glass of milk. Clinton bombed Iraq and Afghanistan Serbia and the Sudan but his paymasters sent Lewinsky because he didn't want to bomb Iran. Rape and divorce are an intrinsic part of many armies whose men have been separated from their wives and girlfriends. The circuit courts are in actuality the shortcircuit courts since they unplug democracy and the will of the majority. With their lifetime appointments to unelected seats, they have a record of rubberstamping corporate fascism and serially killing prisoners. The dead can infect the living (in morgue or on dinner plate). The vacuum needed no attachments since its cleaning power came from having no attachment. A star has come out to tell me it's time to go. A beggar has been sitting by the side of a road for over 30 years./> One day a stranger walked by. Spare some change? mumbled the beggar, mechanically holding out his old baseball cap. I have nothing to give you said the stranger. What are you sitting on? Just an old box. Ever look inside? asked the stranger. No Have a look inside insisted the stranger. The beggar managed to pry open the lid. He saw that the box was filled with gold. I am that stranger who has nothing to give you and who is telling you to look inside. Be very careful with your immigration laws. We were careless with ours. a Native American to a past US president. Life is as complicated as one makes it. Faith moves mountains. Truth soars over them at the speed of light. You might not have always liked Republicans, but you could count on them to manage the bank. They might be lousy tippers, act snooty, talk through their noses, wear spats and splash mud on you as they race their Pierce-Arrows through the village, but you knew they could do the math. To see them produce a ninny and then follow him loyally into the swamp for five years is disconcerting, like seeing the Rolling Stones take up lite jazz. So here we are at an uneasy point in our history, mired in a costly war and getting nowhere, a supine Congress granting absolute power to a president who seems to get smaller and dimmer, and the best the Republicans can offer is San Franciscophobia? This is beyond pitiful. This is violently stupid.
Bucketed plants.. some drowning in excess water, some dying of thirst, are like capitalism, some/> bloated with excess, others with virtually nothing. There are many who are soulmates of my lower self. But Helen is the soulmate of my true self. (Fish have)iridescent coats of mail. Nowadays chickens are raised in large scale modern farms where they cannot walk, run or seek food in the soil. They are fed soleby by humans. They are kept in small cages and cannot move at all. Day and night they have to stand. Imagine that you have no right to walk or to run. Imagine that you have to stay day and night in just one place. You would become mad. So the chickens become mad. In order for the chickens to produce more eggs, the farmers create artificial days and nights. They use indoor lighting to create a shorter day and a shorter night so that the chickens believe that 24 hours have passed and then they produce more eggs. There is a lot of anger, a lot of frustration and much suffering in the chickens. They express their anger and frustration by attacking the chickens next to them. They use their beaks to peck and wound each other. They cause each other to bleed, to suffer and to die. That is why farmers now cut the beaks off all the chickens to prevent them from attacking each other out of frustration. So when you eat the flesh or egg of such a chicken you are eating anger and frustration. If you eat anger, you will become and express anger. The sea is calm tonight. The tide is full, the moon lies fair Upon the straits - on the French coast the light Gleams and is gone; the cliffs of England stand, Glimmering and vast, out in the tranquil bay. Come to the window, sweet is the night air! Only, from the long line of spray Where the sea meets the moon-blanched land, Listen! you hear the grating roar Of pebbles which the waves draw back, and fling, At their return, up the high strand, Begin, and cease, and then again begin, With tremulous cadence slow, and bring The eternal note of sadness in. Sophocles long ago Heard it on the Aegean, and it brought Into his mind the turbid ebb and flow Of human misery; we Find also in the sound a thought, Hearing it by this distant northern sea. The Sea of Faith Was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore Lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled. But now I only hear Its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar, Retreating, to the breath Of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear And naked shingles of the world. Ah, love, let us be true To one another! for the world, which seems To lie before us like a land of dreams, So various, so beautiful, so new, Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light, Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain; And we here as on a darkling plain Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, Where ignorant armies clash by night.

She laughs wildly after every kiss; after every kiss she licks her lips and wipes them on her wrist. Her mother calls out from the kitchen window: Kathleen Elizabeth! I'm not telling you again! Stop kissing those bees! You're gonna get stung! Kathleen Elizabeth pouts and stares wantonly at her bees in the blossoms. She seems enthralled by the buzzing throng. I wonder if she knows that, in Brittany, generations believed the tears Christ shed on the cross turned into bees, that according to Mohammed the bee is the only creature that God ever spoke to directly, that according to Herodotus, kings of Scythia were buried in beeswax. Maybe she was once chosen, having lived a former life in the Far East, where bees are believed to impart eloquence to a child of their choice. Maybe she intuits, somehow, that when Plato, Sophocles, and Xenophon were infants, bees alighted on their mouths. She must know something, because, now, she is singing to the bees, as people in England used to do, to keep their bees at home and happy. And, now, I can hear the thoughts that incite her desire, that arrive on the breeze, as the whole luminous day around her -- and around me -- seems to whisper: Kiss the bees! Kiss the bees! COURAGE AFTER SIXTY Now it is certain. There is no magic stone. No secret to be found. One must go With the mind's winnowed learning. No more than the child's handhold On the willows bending over the lake, On the sumac roots at the cliff edge. Ignorance is checked, Betrayals scratched. The coat has been hung on the peg, The cigar laid on the table edge, The cue chosen and chalked, The balls set for the final break. All cards drawn, All bets called. The dice, warm as blood in the hand, Shaken for the last cast. The glove has been thrown to the ground, The last choice of weapons made. A book for one thought. A poem for one line. A line for one word. Broken things are powerful. Things about to break are stronger still. The last shot from the brittle bow is truest. THE FORCE THAT THROUGH THE GREEN FUSE DRIVES THE FLOWER The force that through the green fuse drives the flower/> Drives my green age; that blasts the roots of trees Is my destroyer. And I am dumb to tell the crooked rose My youth is bent by the same wintry fever. The force that drives the water through the rocks Drives my red blood; that dries the mouthing streams Turns mine to wax. And I am dumb to mouth unto my veins How at the mountain spring the same mouth sucks. The hand that whirls the water in the pool Stirs the quicksand; that ropes the blowing wind Hauls my shroud sail. And I am dumb to tell the hanging man How of my clay is made the hangman's lime. The lips of time leech to the fountain head; Love drips and gathers, but the fallen blood Shall calm her sores. And I am dumb to tell a weather's wind How time has ticked a heaven round the stars. And I am dumb to tell the lover's tomb How at my sheet goes the same crooked worm. Steel buildings don't collapse from fire. A 12 year old girl cries in horror as her parents and the 4H Club take her pet pig away to be slaughtered. Television stations/> advertise the products of such murder as 'meat', but virtually never air films of the animals in transport trucks freezing in mountain passes, being poured down hillsides in truck accidents, being pulled off trucks with electric shocking rods, beatings, and pulleys. They seldom show the shrieks of animals being butchered, their defecation in fright, nor their being skinned alive occasionally at the nation's biggest conglomerate abbatoirs/> euphemistically called 'packing houses'. Is it any wonder that illegal immigrants from Central America, the most desperate of the poor, are the only volunteers for the high turnover high injury jobs for which unionbusters recruit them? Islam is a word which denotes not a particular religion but a state of mind, the state of total surrender to the Will of God. Islam means dedication, surrender, peace, tranquility. Islam denotes the social community whose members have achieved supreme peace through surrender to the All-merciful, All-powerful God and who have vowed to live in peace with their fellowmen. Later, it came to be applied to communities that considered themselves separate and different and so hostile to the rest. Islam taught something higher. It directed attention to the One in the Many, the unity in diversity and led people to the Reality named God. [Sathya Sai Speaks Vol. XVI P. 80] (Sai Baba has volunteers in all paths). THE TUFT OF FLOWERS I went to turn the grass once after one Who mowed it in the dew before the sun. The dew was gone that made his blade so keen Before I came to view the levelled scene. I looked for him behind an isle of trees; I listened for his whetstone on the breeze. But he had gone his way, the grass all mown, And I must be, as he had been -- alone, 'As all must be,' I said within my heart, 'Whether they work together or apart.' But as I said it, swift there passed me by On noiseless wing a bewildered butterfly, Seeking with memories grown dim o'er night Some resting flower of yesterday's delight. And once I marked his flight go round and round, As where some flower lay withering on the ground. And then he flew as far as eye could see, And then on tremulous wing came back to me. I thought of questions that have no reply, And would have turned to toss the grass to dry; But he turned first, and led my eye to look At a tall tuft of flowers beside a brook, A leaping tongue of bloom the scythe had spared Beside a reedy brook the scythe had bared. The mower in the dew had loved them thus, By leaving them to flourish, not for us, Nor yet to draw one thought of ours to him. But from sheer morning gladness at the brim. The butterfly and I had lit upon, Nevertheless, a message from the dawn, That made me hear the wakening birds around, And hear his long scythe whispering to the ground, And feel a spirit kindred to my own, So that henceforth I worked no more alone; But glad with him, I worked as with his aid, And weary, sought at noon with him the shade; And dreaming, as it were, held brotherly speech With one whose thought I had not hoped to reach. 'Men work together,' I told him from the heart, 'Whether they work together or apart.' (The Tuft Of Flowers was included in a 1929 collection of the world's most famous poems). When the skies are a bright canary yellow I forget every cloud I've ever seen, So they called me a cockeyed optimist Immature and incurably green. I have heard people rant and rave and bellow That we're done and we might as well be dead, But I'm only a cockeyed optimist And I can't get it into my head. I hear the human race Is fallin' on its face And hasn't very far to go, But every whippoorwill Is sellin' me a bill, And tellin' me it just ain't so.

Hatred, vengeance, unforgiveness: weapons of mass destruction. Why are people who would be tried for murder if they euthanized children in heavily populated countries able to euthanize animals?
