learn to look within with the purity of a child

12-21-18   "China is basically trying to steal the future of Japan, the U.S. and Europe by going after our technology," US trade adviser

Peter Navarro said...."It goes back to the Communist system where there are no property rights.  If there are no property rights, you can't steal property, right?" he said.   (Only Communist Party has property.)  https://www.newsmax.com/finance/streettalk/china-deal-changes-navarro/2018/12/21/id/895509/

  Since March 2014, 30 Crimean Muslim Tatars have been imprisoned on charges of "extremism".  Forty-four activists have been abducted, 19 of whom are still missing, while six have been found dead.  The Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, known as the FSB, is allegedly the main culprit behind these incidents. 

  For decades Crimea's Muslim Tatars have been pinpointed for discrimination by Russia as the Tatars' opposition of Moscow's rule and ambitions have made them prime targets.

  "I was kidnapped by people in military uniform without insignia.  They put a sack over my head and took me away," an anonymous source told Al Jazeera. "They kept me in a cellar, tortured me and threatened my life.  They try to recruit you as an informer to inform on your own people and betray them."  https://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/specialseries/2018/12/crimea-russia-dark-secret-181212065810629.html

11-28-18     Wara noted in a Wednesday tweet that electrical equipment appears to be the cause of most of the state’s 20 most destructive wildfires, responsible for up to two-thirds of the loss of life and nearly three-quarters of the property losses, recorded from those fires.  However he warned that this analysis presumes that the Tubbs, Woolsey, Thomas and Atlas fires were also started by power lines, a finding that’s supported by “strong circumstantial evidence” but has yet to be officially made by California fire investigators.   https://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/why-pge-didnt-cut-power-to-possibly-prevent-californias-deadliest-wildfire#gs.DzCIICg

12-21-18  Cal Fire, the state’s fire protection agency, sent investigative reports to seven counties this summer saying it believes PG&E likely violated state public resources and health and safety laws in 12 blazes.

  Cal Fire spokesman Scott McLean said it is up to local prosecutors in Sonoma, Napa, Yuba, Nevada, Lake, Humboldt and Butte counties to make independent decisions on whether to use the fire agency’s investigative conclusions to file criminal charges.     https://www.sacbee.com/latest-news/article223213665.html#storylink=cpy

    I AM Thy Chalice

I AM the true life of the flame

A focus of God’s I AM name

Descending cycle from the Sun

My radiant source, Thou lovely One! 

I AM Thy chalice ever free

My purposed aim like Thee to be

A ray of light’s expanding love

A focus for God’s comfort dove

Thy ray now anchored in my form

Does my divinity adorn

Thy flame, a rising sacred fire

Each moment takes me ever higher

Until at last made purer still

Eternal focus of Thy will

I AM Thy crystal chalice pure

An anchor of Thy love secure

A healing fountain to the earth

I AM real proof of life’s rebirth

Which by the power of Thy name

Ascends today Thy love to claim

I AM Thy radiance crystal clear

Forever pouring through me here

Thy living joy fore’er expanding

I AM with Thee all life commanding!

    And therefore what we seek to unmask is the God-flame within so that the light that's within people can shine forth.  And then there will be nothing phony about anything.  Not a thing!  Everything will be real because it is real!  It will not only seem real but it will be real!  Then the jewels that we will wear will be the spiritual jewels of light substance that are within our Mind and Being.  And after all what's real in me and in you--that's the important thing in life!
  So when you come to a point where you desire to unmask yourself, this is not to belittle yourself, it's to get rid of the shell of illusion about anything--yourself or someone else....But all of us can open our eyes to see ourselves as we really are.  And as I said before, put away from your consciousness the idea that you're a tiny little idiot of some kind.  Now some people don't think they're idiot, they think they're very wise.  Put that idea away too!
  Realize that your God Presence has all the qualities of wisdom, all the qualities of compassion, all the qualities of peace, all the qualities of Christ-victory, every quality you need to make your ascension.  If you will remind yourself that these qualities exist in your Mind, this human person--the mask you see that is not real...will fade away.  It'll perish!  But in its place spiritual flowers will grow in the garden of your heart.  And it isn't important that your neighbor see them.  If your neighbor has spiritual vision, your neighbor will see them and rejoice with you and you will rejoice with your neighbor when you see the flowers of spiritual expansion coming to life in him as well as in yourself.
  This is the thing:  avoid phoniness in anything you do because you pay a terrible price for it.  Every time you create an illusion and consciously know that you're creating it, every time that you deceive yourself or others knowingly you are weaving a veil that one day the great Law will require you to fight through.  Therefore learn to look within with the purity of a child.  Learn to value the flame that God has placed within you as being the be-all and end-all of existence.  It is!  It's the endless circle, the endless cycles of your life.
