peace

What if our foreign policy over the past century is deeply flawed and has not served our national security interest? What if we wake up one day and realize that the terrorist threat is a predictable consequence of our meddling in the affairs of others, and has nothing to do with us being free and prosperous? What if war and preparation for war is a racket serving the special interest? What if the American people learn the truth? – Ron Paul

We can achieve much more in peace than we can ever achieve in these needless, unconstitutional, undeclared wars. – Ron Paul

The moral principal is that of defending liberty and minimizing the scope of government. – Ron Paul

“The bigger the whole, the bigger is the meaning. At this level of understanding, God is the biggest concievable whole, and without God you cannot attain the highest meaning. God is not a person; and God is not sitting somewhere. Those ideas are just stupid. God is the total presence of existence, the being, the very ground of being. God exists wherever there is union; wherever there is yoga, God comes into existence. You are walking alone; god is fast asleep. Then suddenly you see somebody and you smile; God is awakened, the other has come in. Your smile is not isolated, it is a bridge. You have thrown a bridge towards the other. The other has also smiled, there has been a response. Between you both arises that space called God- a little throb. When you come to the tree and you sit by the side of the tree, completely oblivious to the existence of the tree, God is fast asleep. Then suddenly you look at the tree , and there is an upsurge of feeling for the tree- God has arisen. Wherever there is love, God is; wherever there is response, God is. God is the space; and it exists wherever union exists. That’s why it is said that love is the purest possibility of God, because it is the subtlest union of energies.” -Osho

I finally decided a name for the foundation!  It has been nameless for the past several weeks.  I wanted it to come naturally, so I waited. Today it arrived. :D

LoveUnity Foundation

The name LoveUnity compliments the goals of the organization:

  • Love the Earth
  • Live sustainably
  • Unite humanity

more info about LoveUnity. .

Last week, I came up with the idea of using LoveATX.com as a community building website for Austin.  LoveATX will provide support for the development of Austin’s conscious community, and represent the foundation’s efforts within Austin.

LoveUnity will assist in building “home-town security”.

LoveATX.com = LoveATXcommunity

Love Unity. . .

Love U. . .  yes, love you

I Love Unity! :D

Here is a documentary about the struggles of war veterans.  These patriotic Americans feel betrayed, duped into participating in an unjust war.  They attempt to return to their normal lives after serving their country, but remain in a mental prison consumed by the guilt of killing innocent people.

Documents the stories of ordinary men and women who heeded the call for military service in Iraq, as they experience recruitment and training, combat, homecoming, and the struggle to reintegrate with families and communities. The terrible conflict in Iraq is a prelude for the even more challenging battles fought by the soldiers returning home – with personal demons, an uncomprehending public, and an indifferent government. As these battles take shape, each soldier becomes a new kind of hero, bearing witness and giving support to other veterans, and learning to fearlessly wield the most powerful weapon of all – the truth.

Former Canadian Minister of Defense discusses the troubles the world is facing and reveals the U.S.’s secret experiments with alien technology.

“The people of the United States, who have paid the bills, have the right to know.  The people of the world demand to know because it is our descendants too whose lives are in mortal danger. It is time for the people of the United States to launch a new war against the evil of lies, deceit, and darkness.  And go all out to win the victory of truth and transparency and light.”  -Paul Hellyer

The following quotes were stated by John F. Kennedy, one of the boldest American leaders of our time.  JFK risked his life to expose corruption and secrecy in hopes that his messages would be heard.  Listen to the words of this freedom fighter.

We are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence; on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly-knit highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed. – JFK

The very word, secrecy, is repugnant in a free and open society, and we are as a people, inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths, and to secret proceedings. – JFK

There is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it’s in my control. – JFK

I have complete confidence in the response and dedication of our citizens whenever they are fully informed. – JFK

The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie, deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic. Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought. – JFK

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable. – JFK

When we got into office, the thing that surprised me the most was that things were as bad as we’d been saying they were. – JFK

Quotes about JFK stated by others.

Kennedy apparently reasoned that by returning to the Constitution, which states that only Congress shall coin and regulate money, the soaring national debt could be reduced by not paying interest to the bankers of the Federal Reserve System, who print paper money then loan it to the government at interest. – Jim Marrs, Rule By Secrecy

The answer to the Kennedy assassination is with the Federal Reserve Bank. Don’t underestimate that. It’s wrong to blame it on [CIA official James] Angleton and the CIA per se only. This is only one finger of the same hand. The people who supply the money are above the CIA. – Wife of accused assassin Lee Harvey Oswald

In rejecting an expanded military involvement, Kennedy went against the Joint Chiefs and a host of high level people in his government, including (CFR members) Dean Rusk, Robert McNamara, and McGeorge and William Bundy. – Donald Gibson

Kennedy’s support for economic development and Third World nationalism and his tolerance for government economic planning, even when it involved expropriation of property owned by interests in the U.S., all led to conflicts between Kennedy and elites within both the U.S. and foreign nations. – Donald Gibson

I will light the match this mornin’, so I won’t be alone
Watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
Oh, I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I’m free to roam
Oh, I will make my way, through, one more day in Hell…
How much difference does it make more. . .

As we mature, life encourages us to bring the healthy individuality (which we developed through our independence) into relationships and networks which involve a lot of healthy interdependence. People use words like mutuality, community and synergy to describe this good kind of interdependence.

Nature is a great model of interdependence. Today you, like me, are breathing hundreds of gallons of invisible oxygen, a gift from our plant kin, to whom we return hundreds of gallons of that stuffy carbon dioxide that they love so much (thank heavens for diversity!). Meanwhile the flowers are gifting nectar to the bees, who return the favor by pollinating the flowers.

But interdependence is social, as well. As technology and population growth bring us all to each other’s doorsteps, and as the globalization of economic, political and ecological factors (and occasional disasters) have woven our destinies ever-more-tightly together, more people are waking up to the fact that we are interdependent whether we like it or not..

It seems that the world is trying to tell us something. Perhaps it hopes that demonstrating our INTRINSIC interdependence will stimulate us to CONSCIOUSLY CO-CREATE POSITIVE FORMS OF INTERDEPENDENCE — mutuality, community, synergy and co-intelligence.

Here’s are a couple of trailers for “Connected”, a documentary about transitioning from independence to interdependence.
