Why give energy to fear? If you want to give energy to fear, then join
the protesters, write the letters and sign all the petitions. Several
governments have tried to push through similar legislation, and in every
case the end result has been severely watered down and is still being
challenged. Politicians have secrets, too... and they are slaves to big
business, which also is not going to be in favor of open access to trade
secrets and strategies.
Besides, no government can really afford the manpower to do all that
surveillance. Increased security expenses have already bankrupted some
airlines, they were on the front lines of the anti terrorist war and as the
attitude spreads, more businesses will discover that paranoia does not
pay... just as insurance expenses have crippled the medical establishment.
Natural selection works in industry, politics and economics, too. These
things must eventually go the way of the mailed Knight and the sabre tooth
tiger.

Best guess would seem to be the increase in the Schumann resonance.
The planetary electromagnetic vibration has increased quite a bit these
last decades. Gaia's Kundalini, bringing up all the old gunk to be
released, and weaving a higher planetary consciousness.
Could also be that nothing has changed except the communications
revolution. Seems like there is more happening in the world, but it is only
that we get more news of the world. Stuff was always happening, we just did
not hear about it. Imagine if historic events, like the Boxer rebellion in
China, had been on sattelite TV?

Controlled? Kundalini? What?

:) The K-list has always been publicly archived, as it states in the
yahoo listing. Posting to the list, is consenting for it to be archived.
The archives have not always been available, due to server changes and
technical difficulties, but that has always been the list intention, since
its inception in 1996. To increase the volume of information and personal
experiences about Kundalini, make them available to any seeker in need.
This discovery sometimes upsets people, they write asking for their
posts to be removed. I do not like to do that, once consent is given it
cannot be revoked and I prefer to maintain the integrity of the list
history... but Hillary has kindly volunteered to anonymize posts from the
archives if the need seems urgent.
My attitude is to emulate a quote by Richard Bach. "Live, never to be
ashamed if anything you say or do is broadcast around the world... even if
what is said, is not true."
I am not perfect at it, there is a place for privacy but I respect the
intention behind it. It is about image, and ego... and how we truly cannot
control what someone thinks of us, and how they see us. Trying to, is an
ego game. I know, I have played with image a lot, actress, comedienne,
dominatrix, spiritual teacher... You can spin doctor an image all you like,
but you cannot control what people think. Privacy is important, but in the
absence of information, people get imaginative... and will invent something
to get worked up about. Some conspiracy theory or paranoid dream. The fear
comes up, to be released, not to be acted on.

You know, the world around you reflects who you are. This is really not
about what the government does, it is about your ego trying to clutch at
its fading boundaries. You titled this email paranoia, so you know that is
what it is. The question is, will you let it rule you? Whom do you serve,
love or fear? Who do you believe is in control of your world, the
government or Goddess?
> In summary, I'm going to sign of this list (unless someone can
>persuade me that it's safe),
No one can persuade you than anything is safe. Your sense of safety,
real safety comes from within. It is not about what is happening outside of
you. The buddha walks through the battlefield, unscathed because he has
Grace. Not giving energy to fear of harm.
How many million people where you live? How special would you have to
be, for a busy beaurocrat to consider your emails worthy of their time?
Jeez, I hardly have time to read my own email, some days. The sheer volume
of internet communications makes any kind of spying like finding a needle
in a haystack.
The fall of the USSR illustrated the folly of attempting too much
control over people. It all falls down, sooner or later because fear cannot
be sustained, long term. The body cannot handle the stress. Now, other
countries are experimenting with similar ideas, as the released karma is
balanced. Using the excuse of terrorism, and if not that, then perhaps it
would have been something else... some other enemy to unite against, and
work out the karmic issues with.
I count my blessings... we westerners live in wealth and luxury that
Solomon could not have dreamt of. Things we take for granted,
refrigeration, central heating, planes trains, bananas from distant lands
and strawberries year round, a 200 piece orchestra playing for my
entertainment at the flick of a switch, abundant hot water day or night,
immunity from many killer diseases, ... count your blessings, on and on and
on. We are the wealthiest society in the world, the wealthiest that there
ever has been, in terms of basic standard of living. Rights, freedoms...
freed from feudalism, slavery, witch burnings, ...
So what do we find to cry about? Waah, somebody peeked at my email and
called me a loonie. Sheer decadence. I found these statistics on the net,
that I find help me to maintain perspective.
If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of precisely
100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it
would look something like the following.
There would be:
57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south
8 Africans
52 would be female
48 would be male
70 would be non-white
30 would be white
70 would be non-Christian
30 would be Christian
89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual
6 people would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth and all 6 would
be from the United States.
80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death;
1 would be near birth
1 (yes, only 1) would have a college education
1 would own a computer
When one considers our world from such a compressed perspective, the need
for both acceptance, understanding and education becomes glaringly apparent.
The following is also something to ponder...
If you woke up this morning with more health than illness...you are more
blessed than the million who will not survive this week.
If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of
imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation ... you are
ahead of 500 million people in the world.
If you can attend a church meeting without fear of harassment, arrest,
torture, or death...you are more blessed than three billion people in the
world.
If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof
overhead and a place to sleep...you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish
someplace ... you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.
If you can read this message, you just received a double blessing in that
someone was thinking of you, and furthermore, you are more blessed than
over two billion people in the world that cannot read at all.

> Sad shunyatauk
There is no need for you to drive yourself underground. Nobody makes
you feel anything. Your feelings are based on your choices, in how you
choose to respond or react to what Is. If you want to give energy to fear,
then, "happy trails".. and I hope someday you find safety in your own heart
and mind.
Blessings...
