Waking Times

The long anticipated and

prophesized year, 2012, has comeand gone, yet, the problems and

challenges facing mankind and

planet earth remain. Those who

have put stock in the idea of

conscious evolution are now faced

with the burden of proof: is there

any legitimacy to this idea of a

shift?

Some human experiences prove too extraordinary and too far outside of the purview of

In order to help steel your resolve and open up your heart, Ive compiled a short list of 10

things for conscious people focus on in 2013 that will give you a framework of daily action

so that you can better engage the world in your understanding the shift, and better

exemplify the positive qualities of the human race.

So, lets get to work.

Dispel fear from your life.

Kill it, once and for all. Bury it and never look back. The greatest force workingagainst the rightful destiny of mankind is fear. Fear is the prime component ofthe

control matrix and this human emotion alone is a more effective prison than even

the gulags of Guantanamo Bay. We hear it on the radio, we see it on TV shows.

Fear is king in the modern world and this king must be violently overthrown.

Death is the ultimate fear of man, and reckoning with your own death is paramount

to being an agent of positive change in the years to come. Behind death, we areprogrammed to fear pain of any kind, including physical pain and the pain of

adverse economic conditions, the pain of perceived insecurity and the pain of

feeling different amongst our peers.

Stop running from pain Stop masking it with material balms and mind numbing

disruption than the mind can fathom. Its time,

right now, to engage yourself in goodwill

towards our eco-systems and the life they

support. You are nothing without a healthy

planet and the responsibility for a shift

towards sustainability lies squarely on your

shoulders. No longer can you fall for the

empty promises of the elite to steward a

healthy environment, you must act now in

protest to the failed materialistic systems that extract, deplete, frack and burn thevery substance of life. Disengage with materialism, and dig deep into the soil for

relief from the madness consuming us all.

Abandon conflict.

The sickness of conflict is an obstacle to all things positive. No longer is it

acceptable to violently argue with your friends and family about the intentions of

the ruling class, and no longer can you allow your energy to be sucked into battles

of opinion or want. Learn to observe, learn to listen, learn to give rather than solely

take. Your opinion matters, but, in the great scheme of things no ones opinion is

more valuable than anothers. Try living with this philosophy in your daily life andwatch and see just how much easier it is to influence other people.

4.

Practice gratitude daily.5.

spirituality.

There is so much more to our existence than the

physical reality we accept as our material universe.

Beyond that lies a vast infinity of awareness and

surprises that can be accessed by various means,

adding a richness and fullness to everyday life,

which is incomprehensible to our scientific minds.

Explore this and you will discover a limitless source

of inspiration, which will allow you to look at thematerial world with a renewed curiosity and calm

passivity. The unexplored realms of your

consciousness is where peace resides, and the

cultivation of individual spirituality is the gateway to

this peace.

If you are bold enough to pursue the revelations

offered by plant medicines, then this may offer you a

unique opportunity to break through our collective

cultural programming and better understand your

role in this crazy world. Spiritual cultivation is thenoblest of personal endeavors and the path to total revolution.

Spirituality and inner peace is your true nature, use it or lose it.

transformative year of your life. Practicing each of these ten things will help you to

develop more love for yourself, your community and the living organism we call planet

earth, while helping to cultivate a demeanor of poise and fearlessness in these waking

times. It is your calling in 2013 to rise to the challenges we all face and play a part in

revitalizing our shared world.

Namaste.

possible to be prepared and be one step ahead of the game without it being

I thought the same thing. And then there is #10practice what you preach.HAHAHA

sally singersays:


I dont think it is confusing at all. Gain knowledge, then deal with the fear that

may arise for what is learned, there are many ways offered to help with this., it

will rise and fall at times. Preparation is not neccesarily a fear based action based on knowledge of possible outcomes, it seems nothing more than

sensible to me.

Well put Sally. If you dont like the term prepared because it has been

demonized lately (which is silly) than interchange it with being sensible


8/15

preparations are essential in my mind to being free from fear. Being honest

about the crises we face is essential to being free from fear. I know a number

of people will not get this, but just as spiritual preparation can free you from the

fear of death, physical preparation can free you from the fear of bad

economies, strife, famine and so on. There is a connection between the two

that must be recognized by conscious people.

Thanks for the comment and have a great day.

Let us get clear about fear Fear is a natural part of our emotional body the

problem around this is that we for the most part have learned and accepted that fear

is our enemy and have never taken the time to realize that fear can also be an

ally a powerful component that lets one know through intuition not to go into a

building, not to go to a meeting, to take another route to where ever. Fear is not

wrong we have been taught to experience fear from a mental or head oriented

perspective Fear felt from the heart can save your life. I highly recommend the

following books The Heart Code by Paul Pearsall PhD Secret Teachings of

Brilliant!! thank you. Reminder to reread Paul Pearsalls book on my shelf. Ilove Dylans suggestion to ditch fear and wish to god I could! Ive just come

from the hospital, where my son was admitted this morning with a leg infection

and is on iv antibiotics. His leg looked terrible..I feel myself sinking into a

black hole. I think its called fear. THIS is my biggest fear (and the one I wish I

could jettison) not my own death (so much, though I agree with Woodie

Allen, I just dont want to be there when it happens) but rather, losing my

children. There is so much fear around their well-being, the possibility of them

passing before I do. This is obviously not a helpful fear (is it?) and one I am

sure I could happily live without. Do you have any thoughts on the nature of

this particular fear?

an unfathomable pain.I know the roots of my feelings must go

further than this life. Tho its true, I am an overly emotional and

sensitive Piscean. You are fortunate in many ways not to have

children. Not every lifetime is intended to be about the sacrifice and

the joys, of parenthood. Its a crazy world and an even crazier life

Victor Gagnon says:


What you resist will persist! I believe that Eckhart Tolle once said that if

you worry about something that might happen then you are lying to

yourself.I have two children and two grandchildren and yes fear does enter into

my thoughts but I have learned long ago that I have no power over my

children or my grand children so I choose to hold the thought that they

will always be well and healthy. With these thoughts I have nothing to

loose. The mind comes into play once again. All of our fears are rooted indeath and that is because we really dont know who or what we are.

So, Thank you for the positive outlook.As a genuine manager and commander, I must move

quickly beyond general staements and wishful thinkings

to address immediate needs.

Like Viktor Kulvinskas vision from Survival into the 21st Century,

where he says to fast yourself down to a scarecrow and allow the

bad guys to just take whatever they want from your house,the wishful picture of fantasyland prevails.

Mr. Dylan,

Fukushima trumps all visions for any future.

Your course in miracles, Various Gurus, techniques of transcendence,

are all bathed in this radioactive fallout. Fukushima is unabated in itsoutput of, conservatively, one hundred Hiroshima-bombs per HOUR

into the atmosphere and Pacific Ocean.

You understand, after reading up a bit, that Civil Defense models

and Duckn'Cover training only anticipated a weapons-exchange,

followed by a ceasefire or Mutually Assured Destruction.

Now, today, specifically upon You, Dylan, today,

the Plutonium239 particles, Cesium 134-and-137, Strontium 90, and

many other radionuclides, are in your lungs, in your food and water,

and everybody elses lungs, food and water.

This event this abomination is foretold if one dares to

Idolaters will suffer for their folly.

David McElroy says:


While Dylan Charles urges the cultivation of many good virtues and characteristics

in ourselves, I am somewhat taken aback in the part about how we must Abandon

Conflict. No matter how spiritually we might become, conflict is unavoidable in the

real world, although we can avoid a lot of useless arguing. I am dismayed Charles

seems to be advocating a totally passive, submissive stance in the face of evil, and

denying that there is any correct or righteous opinion by which any might find

guidance. If this is so, why write the article? Is God not good? God is creative andlife-affirming, life-fulfilling. Evil is destructive, life-denying, life-degrading. Are these

things unworthy of Charles expressions of opinion?

HARD it is!! As a mother of four, I live in constant fear of something terrible

happening to my kids. As a conscious, empathetic, sensitive being this is looking

like being a lifelong companion. Perhaps it is about re-framing it. Or, ACCEPTING it.

Is that enough do you think? Accept that this is me its okay to feel what I am

feeling. I guess as long as we are not immobilized by fear. Courage. THIS is theantidote to fear. I love that the word comes from coeur French for Heart. We come

from the heart when we did deep and engage our capacity for courage. So then, the

fear we feel, when we worry about our kids, or our health or any of the numerous

things we have to feel fearful about must be met with courage. In this way, we

USE fear as a tool to connect us with the heart and our evolutionary intention togrow and heal

Afshin Nejat says:


Reconnect with this great earth? Nonsense. There is nothing great about it. It

needs to be completely scrapped, and it will be. Anyone who reconnects to this

foul heap of evil hyle will be scrapped with it. Better follow the advice of wiser menthan you who said that Gods Kingdom is no part of this world and Detach from

the illusion of maya (maya is the illusion of reality bred by attachments to physical

incarnations, namely on this earth), and that evil matter will be destroyed along with

the evil mind angra mainyu which has invented it. This year is the year of getting

The truth is we are are immortal, infinite, interdimensional beings of conciousness

which is a lot to swallow for many people and requires serious contemplation for the

penny to drop..when you do get it however everything including fear becomes an

illusion..

You had me until your only option given to explore consciousness was plant

medicines. Come on now. Isnt the ultimate goal to find and be able to access all

your levels of consciousness through the purist most natural meditative ways. Imnot saying it cant give you a kick start but its kind of a cheap short cut and I dont

think as conscious people we should encourage others to get enlightened through

short cuts. You just cheat yourself.
