What If It's True?

The other day, I got an email from a listserve I'm on that summarizes a talk recently given by a former Isreali intelligence agent and bodyguard to Golda Meir who has a new book out. OK, so he's promoting his book, but he's also the guy who told the CIA a month before 9/11 many details of the planned terrorist attack. He has an extensive track record. He is now saying that a wave of simultanous terrorist attacks will sweep both major US cities and rural areas in the next few months. My crystal ball is offline these days, so I have no idea whether this will come about, but I find myself wondering - if I did know this was coming, what would I do now? Anything different from what I'm already doing?
It's kind of like the "what would you do today if you knew you were going to die tomorrow" question that I love to live with, but different in significant ways, because it's not so much about dying oneself as it is about the end of a way of life we are used to. This message is being discussed in many different ways in many different circles. We are on the edge of some major shifts in life as we have know it.
Having had the experience a month ago of unexpectedly hearing my leg bone snap after a fall, I've been with this realization of how life as you know it can change in an instant. Things I took for granted, like being able to drive somewhere or hop into the bath tub or shower whenever I wanted, are suddenly difficult if not impossible without assistance.
As it turned out, life had prepared me well to surrender to this experience without my "trying" to prepare specifically for this event.
And I am still in the process of fine tuning - where is that delicate balance point between when is it appropriate to go with the flow, and when is it appropriate to stand fast and say "no!" not in my name.
Would love to hear others feelings and thoughts and experiences around some of these mysteries ....
Love,
Taj

Taj:
thanks for posting this. I have cross referenced your blog to mine and mine is here.
I also am cross posting from the Gramma pod:
Hey Taj:
Glad you are back! We have heard this from several sources, and got an email in fact saying 9/11 will be a bad day here in the US in several cities.
We have taken cash money out of banks so we can have it on hand in case banks fail, we have a store of canned goods and water and we are vigilant about some other things. Always have been since about 1990. One must always be prepared, not fearful that things might change instantly. I think that is why 9/11/01 did not “surprise me”, of course, I was apalled, etc, but knew it was inevitable.
So, here is a case as I blogged about recently: Fear or prudent thinking? We need to be aware things may be changing, but not live in fear and manifest them to us…there is a fine line. I have been criticized by others in the past, so do not discuss it too much, as I am tired of being pooh-poohed. It gets old!
As to our spiritual use, should this happen, we are the lightworkers who have undergone many hardhships from what I can see and we are in place to assist others who will not be able to cope well with adversity. Those who have never lived simply and continue to ignore warnings in their lives will suffer more than those that understand what is occuring..
This is a very important thing to ask ourselves…are we ready? Prepared in case we are stuck at home with no electricity, or cannot leave our home for several months?
To operate from understanding and not fear is crucial. I find there is too much fear in the media, but we also need to be prepared. Discernment is the key.
Would love to hear anyone else's “plan”…everyone should always have a plan, no matter what.
Blessings and thanks,
Aley
I believe we cocreate, all of us …….
And so do
all things,
all relationships,
all planetary systems,
all energies,
all souls, etc…..
Quite a cocreation party, if we allow it!
My feeling is that, if there is no other type of change brought about by our conscious co-creation, then what this man says re terrorist activity may well be true.
I say this also, because I have also been given such visions, not through intimate Earthly connections or being privy to political insider-information, but through what I feel I've been told “on the inner planes.” In this “inner plane”-connection, I am not alone when it comes to these messages. Many of my friends on the “spiritual path” have expressed similar visions (brought to them through dreams, voices, sudden knowings, etc.)
We have the energies of increasing seismic activity, rising water-levels, droughts, climate-change, the threat of the pole-shift, etc., which add to the general “energy” of Earth instability. And the rising impatience of those who feel forced to live in poverty and repression while a small western elite lives openly in unmitigated physical opulence.
My intellect suspects that the only way for our present man-made Earth-structures to mature into a new paradigm of deeper spiritual reality lived on Earth, which, of necessity, includes the letting-go of so much of what we have conned ourselves into believing is “needed to live in physical comfort,” is for a sufficient wave of “destruction” to destabilize the present systems beyond their “balance-point.” (As it is, at present, most systems are “way beyond” this balance-point and seem to be living on borrowed time. It may not take much!)
When I ponder this in my heart and in my cells, and try to make this connection as compassionate as possible, I find myself praying that “only that destruction which is absolutely necessary for absolute change be done.”
Yet I am aware how an all-consuming forest fire is so much more able to allow the forest floor to be properly renewed. So when are we humans helping cosmos and Earth by our innocent healing thoughts and endeavours, and when are we getting in the way of “permanent” and lasting change and transformation?
The prayer Thy will be done is perhaps more apt than ever!
HI John and Aley,
Thanks for your comments. You sum up the global situation very neatly.
I hear a number of people these days letting go of their investment in the survival of humans in favor of the survival of Earth and other species whose footprint is lighter. Strange and unsettling, but also full of wisdom. My mind can have a field day with this one! Are our genocidal wishes going to create the extinction of homo sapiens? Can we survive without the Will to survive? Or will our innocent healing thoughts and endeavors be getting in the way of transformation as you suggest, John?
I know it's incorrect in many circles these days to question whether we have the ultimate power and control not only over our own destinies, but those of the whole universe. When faced with this one, I find it feels better to go with seeing I have only the illusion of choice.
When I really look at the situation, the only thing I feel sure of is The More Love, The Better It Will Be. But as a speciies, our whole understanding of Love is so distorted and sideways, simply knowing what Love is and is not can be very confusing. I guess that's why I've put so much energy in the direction of learning what love IS!
I just watched a beautiful film called Baran set in Tehran during the war in Afganistan. It was billed as romantic and humorous but I cried much more than I laughed. I was very touched by the innocence and selflessness of the characters portrayed. I doubt that these qualities of love are often found in our culture.
Love,
Taj
