Wear your green arm band, take a photo and send that photo to the Earth Guardians through EarthGuardians.org. Why? To show that you are working on yourself, with yourself, by yourself, and with others, to manifest the magnificent EDEN that Spaceship Earth is, and is meant to BE!!

Earth Guardians are Protecting Planet Earth

What are you doing to protect the Earth?
Are you an Earth Guardian?

 Earth, by Elisa Beck :)

As our Inner Ecosystem
As the Spaceship Earth
As the Present, the Future and the Past
As the rivers flow
and the fluids flow in our bodies
and in the
bodies
of all forms
of Life
the blood
the lymph
the single cells of hemoglobin flowing
through
our arteries
and veins
through the cytoplasm, the ecoplasm, the plasma
the chlorophyll
the SUN powers all of this and all of it

The beautiful Spaceship
called Earth
with all its
majesty
colors
sights
smells
The Perception
we hold
is ours
to form
Our thoughts
CREATE
OUR REALITY
So shift your thoughts towards Positivity
Creativity
Blissful wonder
& let's
CREATE
together
through
how we act
towards
ourselves
and
towards one another
What we eat
drink
and think
the new world that is
MEANT TO BE
IS
as we
Look
Feel
&Think
that way!

And now that you know to just go with the flow
Flow on with me and see our true divinity!!!!

From Dr. Liberman:

"Seeing Holographically

Suppose for a moment that you don’t see with your physical eyes — that you have no single “point of view,” but can see clearly from all places at once. While meditating twenty-five years ago, I actually slipped into this indescribable state — and experienced a miraculous change in my vision.

Although my eyes were closed, I could “see” myself sitting there in meditation — only I couldn’t tell where I was seeing myself from. It was as if the room was filled with eyes, and I was looking through all of them.

When I finally opened my eyes, my vision had undergone a profound change — from barely being able to see the eye chart, to seeing better than normal — and it has remained so to this day. Since I was a practicing optometrist at the time this shift occurred, it forced me to reconsider everything I had ever been taught about vision.

I realized that it is our insight, and not our eyesight, that must be healed if we wish to see clearly — and that only by seeing beyond our beliefs can we truly see clearly.

~ ~ ~

When the "I" stops looking,
the eyes start seeing."

Here's the scoop on how to travel to Schwartz Living Market this coming Sunday, May 4, 2014, for the amazing, not to be missed workshop, Stop Looking, Start Seeing from 10 AM to 6 PM, with visionary Dr. Jacob Liberman, of Maui, Hawaii, and Dr. Elisa Haransky-Beck, of Pittsburgh, PA!
