During a meditation a few days ago, this thought emerged: It's time to kickstart the resurrection!
In my life as an activist, I have sometimes heard the phrase "kickstart the revolution". I've also been fascinated by the concept of crowdsourcing creative projects via Kickstarter, where "together, creators and backers make projects happen."
My first association to "kickstarting the resurrection" during this 2013 Easter cycle was to the mass scale, collective return of all on Earth to Christ consciousness, and mass expression of spiritual embodiment as a necessary step in evolution for each person and for humanity itself. I'm sure more will unfold about this over the next few months, but, no doubt about it, this would be a monumental crowdsourced creative project of conscious evolution!
Today I got a link to this great article by Paul Smith, author of Integral Christianity: The Spirit's Call to Evolve. Reading the article "resurrected" the feeling of excited anticipation I had felt earlier in the week. Here are the concluding paragraphs of Paul's article:
The resurrection holds three potential realities for those on an intentional spiritual path. First, if so desired, anyone can commune with Jesus as an icon of the Divine in 2nd-person surrender and devotion in a meaningful way that may have some similarities to that which the early Christians experienced after the resurrection. This does not mean we must relate to Jesus as some Christians insist. Jesus, in his own practice, framed the intimate face of the Divine Presence as “Abba,’ using the paternal name he called his own earthly father. Whatever the meaningful deity forms that may come to us in our I-Thou relationship with the Sacred Mystery, they are embraced in integrally-informed spiritual devotion.
Second, we may find reminders of the eternal existence of our Essence, our True Self, in Jesus’ resurrection appearances back then and today in a recognizable “spiritual” body form, revealing both our own universal oneness with God and also our own timeless, recognizable, unique selves.
And third, Jesus’ model and the practices of mystics of all traditions down through the centuries and today offer us spiritual disciplines and psychospiritual technologies where we can test these possibilities for ourselves. The scientific method of experiment, experience, and evidence is available as a laboratory for us to discover the reality of “resurrection” in own experience.

When this image of Saturn was released by NASA before Christmas, it made the rounds on Facebook and many other social networking sites.
NASA's Cassini spacecraft has delivered a glorious view of Saturn, taken while the spacecraft was in Saturn's shadow. The cameras were turned toward Saturn and the sun so that the planet and rings are backlit. (The sun is behind the planet, which is shielding the cameras from direct sunlight.) In addition to the visual splendor, this special, very-high-phase viewing geometry lets scientists study ring and atmosphere phenomena not easily seen at a lower phase.
Read more at www.jpl.nasa.gov
For me, Saturn has always seemed so impressive...I guess because of the rings. I remember a dream many years ago in which I was out in space, close enough to this large planet to see the rings clearly. I was in awe. By that time in my life, Saturn had taken on new significance as a result of my exposure to channeled information that it was home to the Hierarchal Board (Saturnian Council), the spiritual governing body of our solar system.
Yep, kind of a real life, solar-system-scale version of the United Federation of Planets familiar to fans of Star Trek!
On December 24th and 26th, NASA released additional images of Saturn. Amazingly, within that 3 day window, Phillel of Mark-Age -- who serves as a channel under the code name "Motah" -- received two significant messages relative to Saturn.
Here's the core idea from the first message on Christmas Day:
Symbolically, Saturn is being brought into conjunction with Earth. This is a spiritual, not an astronomical, alignment. It has always been part of the hierarchal plan since the beginning: as we move into the New Age of Aquarius, the Earth must be aligned further with the Saturnian Council, as well as with the rest of the planets under that central governing authority. This is the next phase of the Second Coming plan, as we have foreshadowed.
This message, and a second one on December 26th, continue to trigger new thoughts and insights related to the many models of government now operating on Earth, and the possibilities for transformations of those political systems that will better serve all of Earth's citizens as we move into a new phase of spiritual evolution.
In the next week or so I hope to post additional reflections on our political systems here in the United States. What we see in the mirror of daily life can be viewed through the lens of spiritual history to inform a more conscious evolutionary process and bring governmental systems back into balance. I may post some of these at my Citizen, Ink blog, but plan to cross-post or link them here as well.

[Here's another course assignment I am sharing: a reflection based on some of the notions of time as a dimension of the physical universe, as described at a webpage of the University of Mannitoba.]
At last! I can begin to write this assignment. Yesterday I could not have written these first words. Now it is time.
I initially took on the “What Is Time” website at the end of a long day. Frankly, I could make no sense of it, and knowing that I would be asked to write 1 to 2 pages on some idea within it bordered on terrifying!
The following day, I re-opened the file with dread but plunged into the black (w)hole of it anyway. In the space of this day, I not only made sense of it, but found I could play with the ideas inside. As the old song goes, “What a difference a day makes!”[i]
In this play space, my next challenge was to sort through the many possible themes to find where the fire was to move my work on this assignment forward. In my reading of “What Is Time”, I discovered a section of text that generated a noticeable body-mind-heart-soul tension, so I focused there. My specific point of reference here is to the author’s discussion of cyclic and linear time, and then how Einstein “changed these ideas totally” with his theories of general and special relativity. Here’s how I took it from there:
First, in receptive stillness, I sit with the tension: I sense there is a dismissal of the cycle, the circle, as the irreversible arrow of time moves the Cosmic Feminine aside. I’m thinking there is something about the interrelationship of Masculine and Feminine energy that’s being missed in this shift. I question that linear time represents a “progressive view” as the article suggests. I sense it’s time to move out of quiet reflection and into hunting mode.
On to the Google search! I play with different search strings: cyclic time and Cosmic Feminine, spacetime and Feminine Principle, cronos and kairos, and on and on, following what attracts me until my head is full of possibilities in a sea of chaotic thought. I have no starting point for writing the assignment. And how did it get to be so late in the day?
I quiet my mind, and listen. Out of the chaos, an image emerges: the Taijitu (yin yang symbol). I have to smile as I relax into cellular memories of my practice of Taijiquan. I can feel the flow of energy, yin into yang, emptying then filling my limbs like a precious liquid poured slowly back and forth between two carafes. In this quiet space of memory I move back through my process with this assignment to reflect on notions of time. Now I see the pattern of subtle flows―circles to arrows, chronos to kairos, male to female, and back again―yet something beyond that, too: an idea that links and integrates older human observations and experience with what is emerging.
“Could this speak to a view of time that is more resonant with body-mind-heart-soul,” I wonder, “the flow between magnetic poles of yin-yang?” I am moved to try one more search: spacetime and yin-yang. In the second page of results I find a link that sparks delightful coherence to my thoughts about co-creative harmony of the Cosmic Masculine and Feminine, and what it could mean in relation to concepts of space and time.
In the preface of his book on YinYang Bipolar Relativity,[ii] author Wen-Ran Zhang outlines his intention to introduce a deeper theory that transcends spacetime. In doing so, he doesn’t focus on defining the smallest fundamental element, but instead proposes that YinYang bipolarity is the most fundamental property of the universe. Though Zhang doesn’t claim YinYang bipolar relativity is a “theory of everything” he sees its potential to unify theories: mechanistic with holistic paradigms, classical with quantum logic, quantum entanglement with microscopic and macroscopic agent interaction, and general relativity with quantum mechanics. It is a deeper theory beyond spacetime geometry with practical applications for discovery in many fields of knowledge.
Tension resolved…for the time being.
[i] You can find this song also under the title: What a Difference a Day Made. I linked the Dinah Washington video because this is how I remember the song being sung when I first heard it as a child. For another take on the song, see Esther Phillips’ version. In the extended comments for the Phillips video, I noted with interest that this popular song was “originally written in Spanish by María Méndez Grever (María Grever), a Mexican composer, in 1934. Originally, the song was known as Cuando Vuelva A Tu Lado.”
[ii] The Preface and excerpts from each chapter can be read and downloaded at IGI Publications’ webpage for YinYang Bipolar Relativity: A Unifying Theory of Nature, Agents and Causality with Applications in Quantum Computing, Cognitive Informatics and Life Sciences

[This is another assignment for a virtual course through Giordano Bruno GlobalShift University. Specifically, the task was to build a three-dimensional model--using ordinary household items--of a network that I am a part of, and that demonstrates certain characteristics of living systems. I decided to experiment with an integration of material from Fritjov Capra's Web of Life, and the Mark-Age text, Angels and Man, a discourse on the history of our reltionship with angelic, devic and elemental forces throughout our history on Earth, channeled by Nada-Yolanda.]
[Photo credit: Cathie Bird, January 22, 2012]
This is my (evolving) model of a multi-dimensional network of beings working cooperatively for the collective birth of light body form through which God Self consciousness of every individual will eventually express 24/7 on planet Earth. This network demonstrates non-linear connectedness, feedback loops, self-regulation, and the ability to learn and evolve.
The scale of this model is our solar system (basket). Earth (gold lid) is home to many individual life forms (smaller yellow bottle cap), each of which has a seed of God Self consciousness (single beech nut) within. Each individual (of which I am one) also represents a collective of beings (larger yellow bottle cap with beech burr and beechnuts still attached). We are all connected and interdependent (symbolized by the pink rubber band around the bottle caps).
All living and non-living forms of the whole of Earth are also connected to life forms in other dimensions of our our solar system (represented by the sandstone coaster and white lid). Some of us may not yet see or be aware of these other dimensions, or the different life forms (nuts and seeds) in them, but we are interconnected in a circular (non-linear) way (blue and orange rubber bands), and signal our individual and collective presence and activity to one another through these connections. Through feedback loops that develop, we process and use the information to adjust our activity (self-regulation) based on each one's function and service to the whole as an individual seed of God Self. Through these cooperative processes, every life form learns and evolves – each according to its individual and collective pattern and service.
For example, in a process that some now call sacred or subtle activism, I open myself (yellow bottle cap, beechnut) to conscious energy exchange with teachers in higher frequency dimensions (beech nuts in the white lid), and to cooperation with angelic forces (nuts and seeds on the sandstone) to bring new frequencies in for planetary transformation. Input of higher frequency energy expands my desire to move into expression of that frequency. Feedback loops circulate information about how I, as a life form in Earth frequency, am responding to and holding the higher vibrations. Such experiences stimulate growth and evolution of my light body. Through cooperation with angelic forces whose function is to maintain coherence of the new form while it is under construction, I move closer toward a time when I can step into that form and dissolve the old third-dimensional form.
Many people on Earth are doing this kind of work consciously and, in changing themselves, help stabilize new patterns or forms that will be sustainable in the new Earth.

Please check out my reflections on Japanese artist Isao Hashimoto's time lapse map of the 2,053 nuclear explosions that shook the Earth between 1945 and 1998.
Perhaps it's not that Hashimoto's art brought my nuclear thoughts, feelings and questions more profoundly into my body, but that his interpretation put me more profoundly in touch with something that was already there. After all, the atoms in the bombs and the atoms in my body are the same, all connected, all communicating, all the time.
When the US dropped that bomb on Hiroshima, it dropped on me, though I wasn't yet born. The cells that would grow and develop as a vessel for this local self I know as "me" already held the memory of that nuclear holocaust, and have no doubt reverberated with every explosion since, though well beyond conscious awareness...until now.
Read more and see the video...

Over the past couple of months I've caught myself smiling for no particular reason, smiles that seem to come from deep within. Today, the simple act of reminding myself that it was Christmas Eve seemed to coincide with an impulse of joy generated from some place beyond conscious awareness.
In this joy that needed to be spoken, I playfully explained to my dogs and cats that it was Cristmas Eve and tomorrow was the day we were going to be reborn into our light bodies and stay in them, right here on Earth!
While doing some laundry before breakfast, I thought more about what I'd just told my pets. What arose then was not so much a smile, but a very deep appreciation for Sanada-Jesus and his re-entry into third dimensional Earth life more than 2,000 years ago -- the birth that many will celebrate tomorrow, Christmas Day.
The realization that moved this feeling was about the dangers of coming into the trap of this 3D-Earth experience that has held so many of us for so many thousands of years. As I went into meditation recently, I got this idea: “We replay the fall of man into matter a hundred times a day.” In this light I looked at a typical day for me, all those moments when I'm dealing with ordinary life, focusing on tasks necessary to maintain existence in the material world, in and out of memory of who I really am, and that I am one with all that is.
"Wow," I thought, with a renewed sense of wonder, "Sananda jumped right into the open jaws of this huge 3D trap and then got out of it via the light body! Awesome!"
Of course, there's much unfinished business for Sananda and for us: his re-descent or return to 3D Earth, and our collective birth as a Christ mass. A spiritual brother shared with me recently (and just posted it on his blog) that he'd been "guided to not only celebrate the past birth of baby Jesus some 2,000 years ago, but also to visualize and look forward to Jesus' upcoming spiritual rebirth and redescent in his light body sometime in the next few decades."
This idea has played powerfully in my meditations over the past few days, and especially since the winter solstice.
I see it's now officially Christmas Day...I have some other thoughts to share later.

Great article at Science Daily, and what a great day for such a link to appear on my home page:
Last night I spent the evening with a bunch of agents of conscious evolution, sharing visions for Birth 2012 Convergence Day this Saturday, October 15th.
Today I linked with interdimensional partners in a co-creative project aimed at restoration of love and peace to whole continents. Tomorrow that project launches!
Thousands still occupy Wall Street and other public spaces around the world to affirm we of Earth say "No!" to greed and injustice. People are coming together across the planet to transform broken systems and birth new structures for just and peaceful societies.
And the wisdom of these movements toward conscious evolution, toward planet-wide collaboration is mirrored by the very cells of which we are made:
The research, published Sept. 15 in the journal Science, also demonstrates why it's advantageous for cells to cooperate to overcome their meager individual decision-making abilities by forming multicellular organisms.
"Each cell interprets a signal from the environment in a different way, but if many cells join together, forming a common response, the result can eliminate the differences in the signal interpretation while emphasizing the common response features," says Andre Levchenko, Ph.D., associate professor of biomedical engineering and member of the Institute for Cell Engineering. "If a single blood vessel cell gets a signal to contract, it is meaningless since all the surrounding cells in the blood vessel need to get the message to narrow the blood vessel. Cell collaboration does wonders in terms of their ability to transfer information and convert it into decision-making."
