TWIN SOULS

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

What are Twin Souls?
Twins and soul mates are two entirely different things.  If you do believe in reincarnation and past lives, you could literally have thousands of soul mates out there, people you have bumped into constantly over your many, many lives along with the karma which comes with it.

But the Twin is different. It is literally your missing half from the beginning of Time. You can have 1000’s of soul mates but there is only one Twin.

The reunification of Twins is also a very, very holy event.

According to folklore, myths, stories through the ages, all of us are Divine sparks from the Source, eons ago, we were WHOLE, not separated, in a state of constant bliss. The Classical Greek philosopher Plato talks about it in the “Speech of Aristophanes” in his book “The Symposium”.  The ideas expressed in highly symbolic form.

Twins are marked by several characteristics: parallel life stories, eery and insane coincidences, communication which borders on the telepathic and an overwhelming sense of familiarity between you, like you’ve known each other forever.

Various myths and traditions around the world describe when Twins became separated: In Christianity/Islam/Judaism, it is the Fall of Man, when Adam and Eve are cast out of Paradise. In Egyptian mythology, it is when Set angered the Sun God RA so deeply when he killed his brother Osiris and cut him into 14 pieces, forever separating him from his Twin, Isis.

This awful event caused Twins to separate and the search of true love is really a search for the missing Twin. Their reunification is holy because it is literally the coming together of a PRIMARY energy from Source itself. Meaning, the energy Twins generate is of such a high frequency and so pure, that the work that Twins do together is of immense importance and usually helps inspire humankind to evolve to a higher state of consciousness, which is why Twins finding each other during this time of transition would go a long way.

Twinship is not about romance, candle lit dinners, great sex, buying a condo together and shared investments and retirement savings plans. It is about two souls coming together to be of benefit and service to humanity, usually by inspiring and leading others with the creative work they do together, whether that be the books they write together, the ideas they come up with together, the healing work they do together, the artistic and creative output they do together etc. The works they produce together usually live on, long after they have gone.
It is usually a male, female configuration, but not always. It may manifest itself as brother and sister (Richard and Karen Carpenter) or teacher and student from time to time (Socrates and Plato) Think of John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

Or consider Joseph Campbell, the father of modern mythology and Jean Erdman Campbell, the two never had children, but instead, focused on their work. With his books like “Hero with a Thousand Faces”, Campbell influenced everyone from George Lucas and Star Wars to writers around the world. Jean, was a principal dancer for the Martha Graham Dance Company and revolutionized modern dance.

Other legendary Twins: St. Francis of Assisi and Claire of Assisi, St. Francis established the Franciscan Order of monks, Clare founded the Order of the Poor Ladies

Peter Abelard and Heloise: Medieval theologian, Peter Abelard was considered one of the greatest minds in Europe in the 12th century. For a time Abelard was Heloise’s tutor and eventually lover. When Heloise’s uncle tore them apart and had Abelard castrated, he ended up becoming a monk and Heloise became an abbess, one of the greatest in France. Their letters have survived the centuries and are a testament to the redemptive power of love.

Pierre and Marie Curie, the father and mother of radioactive theory and Nobel prize winners in chemistry and physics, the two were pioneers in the field.

Will and Ariel Durant, best known for The Story of Civilization, 11 volumes written in collaboration between 1935 and 1975, the Durants presented history to the common man and most of all made it interesting.  Durant was a gifted prose stylist and storyteller who won a large readership in great part because of the nature and excellence of his writing, which, in contrast to formal academic language, is lively, witty, charismatic, colourful, ornate, epigrammatic, in short, “humanized.”

Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan and his queen Mumtaz Mahal, a heart-broken Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal, the most architecturally beautiful  building on Earth, as a tomb for his beloved Mumtaz.

Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy, considered the two most talented actors during Hollywood’s Golden Age, Tracy and Hepburn would spend 27 years together until his death, made 9 films together and went down as one of the most mythical love stories in Hollywood history.

The late playwright Patricia Joudry wrote the book “Twin Souls: Finding Your True Spiritual Partner” and she likened it to a single person climbing a mountain by themselves, with the struggle, the pain, the difficulty. Suddenly you find yourself alone at the top and feel proud and happy of what you’ve accomplished. Suddenly the fog lifts and you see there is another mountaintop not far from you and your Twin is there, alone,  looking right back at you.”

10 REASONS WHY IT’S NOT COOL TO BE HUMAN

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

10 REASONS WHY IT’S NOT COOL TO BE HUMAN

1)  Humans are the only species that worship / reward those who murder / massacre  their own species and other organisms for amusement or power.

2) Every human “civilization”, since before “written history”, has been destroyed or failed without exception.

3)  Human are the only species that indiscriminately destroy / enslave the natural environment and other life forms to support and justify their own survival.

4)  Humans are planetary parasites that destroy and/or  consume nearly all other life forms.

5)  Humans are the only species that have the ability to destroy every living organism on Earth, permanently.

6)  Human beings are one of the most fragile of all living organisms, while convinced they are the “God’s perfect creation” who are therefore entitled to rule Earth by “Manifest Destiny” granted by non-existent “gods” they invent themselves.

7)  Human beings are able to perceive only about .0003 percent of the electromagnetic spectrum.

8)  Humans are the only species that deceive, cheat, steal and murder to gain power / control while covering up their crimes with trickery, lies and hiding evidence of their premeditated intentions and actions.

9) Humans are the only species that do not have a naturally occurring symbiosis with any other life forms, with the possible exception of intestinal bacteria.

i.e. a  close association between two or more organisms of different species, often but not necessarily benefiting each member. The association of algae and fungi in lichens and of bacteria living in the intestines or on the skin of animals are forms of symbiosis. (Dictionary.com)

10)  Apparently, human beings are an alien species, with amnesia, that did not “evolve” on Earth while pretending to be “natives”.

DISINFORMATION

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

TruthLiesX The following article is re-posted from:  “Eight Traits of the Disinformationalist”http://cameforthetruth.blogspot.com/2013/06/eight-traits-of-disinformationalist.html“1) Avoidance. They never actually discuss issues head-on or provide constructive input, generally avoiding citation of references or credentials. Rather, they merely imply this, that, and the other. Virtually everything about  their presentation implies their authority and  expert knowledge in the matter without any further justification for credibility.2) Selectivity. They tend to pick and choose opponents carefully, either applying the hit-and-run approach against mere commentators supportive of opponents, or focusing heavier attacks on key opponents who are known to directly address issues. Should a commentator become argumentative with any success, the focus will shift to include the commentator as well.3) Coincidental. They tend to surface suddenly and somewhat coincidentally with a new controversial topic with no clear prior record of participation in general discussions in the particular public arena involved. They likewise tend to vanish once the topic is no longer of general concern. They were likely directed or elected to be there for a reason, and vanish with the reason.4) Teamwork. They tend to operate in self-congratulatory and complementary packs or teams. Of course, this can happen naturally in any public forum, but there will likely be an ongoing pattern of frequent exchanges of this sort where professionals are involved. Sometimes one of the players will infiltrate the opponent camp to become a source for straw man or other tactics designed to dilute opponent presentation strength.5) Anti-conspiratorial. They almost always have disdain for ‘conspiracy theorists’ and, usually, for those who in any way believe JFK was not killed by LHO. Ask yourself why, if they hold such disdain for conspiracy theorists, do they focus on defending a single topic discussed in a NG focusing on conspiracies? One might think they would either be trying to make fools of everyone on every topic, or simply ignore the group they hold in such disdain.Or, one might more rightly conclude they have  an ulterior motive for their actions in going out of their way to focus as they do.6) Artificial Emotions. An odd kind of ‘artificial’ emotionalism and an unusually thick skin — an ability to persevere and persist even in the face of overwhelming criticism and unacceptance. This likely stems from intelligence community training that, no matter how condemning the evidence, deny everything, and never become emotionally involved or reactive. The net result for a disinfo artist is that emotions can seem artificial. Most people, if responding in anger, for instance, will express their animosity throughout their rebuttal. But disinfo types usually have trouble maintaining the ‘image’ and are hot and cold with respect to pretended emotions and their usually more calm or unemotional communications style. It’s just a job, and they often seem unable to ‘act their role in character’ as well in a communications medium as they might be able in a real face-to-face  conversation/confrontation. You might have outright rage and indignation one moment, ho-hum the next, and more anger later — an emotional yo-yo. With respect to being thick-skinned, no amount of criticism will deter them from doing their job, and they will generally continue their old disinfo patterns without any adjustments to criticisms of how obvious it is that they play that game — where a more rational individual who truly cares what others think might seek to improve their communications style, substance, and so forth, or simply give up.7) Inconsistent. There is also a tendency to make mistakes which betray their true self/motives. This may stem from not really knowing their topic, or it may be somewhat ‘Freudian’, so to speak, in that perhaps they  really root for the side of truth deep within.I have noted that often, they will simply cite contradictory information which neutralizes itself and the author. For instance, one such  player claimed to be a Navy pilot, but blamed his poor communicating skills (spelling, grammar, incoherent style) on having only a grade-school education. I’m not aware of too many Navy pilots who don’t have a college degree. Another claimed no knowledge of a particular topic/situation but later claimed first-hand knowledge of it.”
