Learning How to be Supernaturally safe

For me, being clairvoyant and intuitive (at least in this lifetime) wasn't something that I ever wanted. (Who wants to be terrified?). However, this being terrified can also lead to becoming very powerful and learning over time how to protect yourselves from things you don't want to be harmed by.  The single most important thing to understand about what can harm you is that most of the things you will be harmed by are in your own subconscious mind. Once you learn this then you learn to not put your attention on things that are going to stir up your subconscious mind. So, unless you are in an emergency situation trying to save someone's sanity or life you are very very careful what you think about and the people you associate with all the time. Because this is the key to being okay and staying alive and staying physically, mentally and spiritually healthy.

So, some of the first things one needs to learn is how to protect themselves, physically, mentally and spiritually. This, of course like most things in life comes fairly slowly even though some things one needs to know just to survive day to day. For some people going to church helps them. For other people who they surround themselves with helps them. For other people, living alone in the remote places helps them. (Although I've seen what too much of this can do to people not prepared for what being really alone can do to one's mind if it is not their cup of tea. I've tried all these things while trying to get used to being an intuitive during my 20s and 30s.

One of the hardest things for me to get used to during my teens was walking by a person on the street and knowing when someone was going to die. Sometimes, as I walked past someone right out of the blue I would want to suddenly throw up because I couldn't tell them and yet I would know they were going to die within the next week. But other times people would walk by me with many many angels with them in their auras and this would be wonderfully intoxicating. Finally, around age 23 or so I just couldn't stand to see and feel everything I did because I was in overwhelm all the time. So I said to God, "God. I just can't take seeing everything good and bad supernaturally all the time! Just show me what I need to know all the time." Instantly, all my perceptions changed. It was like magic as God answered my prayer. I would be aware of amazing things near to me or far from me. For example, I might be aware of something on the other side of the planet as it happened. And even though I would know whenever angels were near me, I would also be shielded from things not useful for me to know about. So, God shows me all the time day and night about things I need to know about all over Earth, throughout the solar system and all through our galaxy. I know this sounds odd to listen to but this is my personal covenant with God. In this way I can do whatever He wants me to with whatever information I am given any moment 24 hours a day into infinity. I like this. By the Grace of God.

Spiritual

When I was little I used to call my mother and her Scottish mother spiritual. I didn't have another word for it. I knew my grandmother read the Bible all the time but was kind of quiet and spoke with a Scottish brogue and was born in 1888. I used to like the donuts (especially the glazed ones and Jelly donuts) that were sold by the Helms Bakeries. The Jelly donuts had either cherry jelly or lemon custard filling in them.  note: here is one that looks to be early 1950s with the little girl looking at the donuts and her Mom talking to the Helms Bakery man. If you type in "Helms Bakeries" and then click on Google images you can see some of their trucks there.

I'm not really sure when people stopped doing this sort of thing but I think it went on at least until 1960 or so. They had wooden trays in the back of the van and when they opened the back door we could ask for any of about 10 or twelve kinds of donuts or cream puffs or cool stuff like that.

Mom and Dad ran a church in Los Angeles. So whenever my father wasn't working as an electrician from about 8 am to 4:30 pm all over Los Angeles County in California, he was at night and on Sunday being a minister in the church my parents ran in Los Angeles.

Dad being an electrician was always sort of the scientist and Mom and my Grandmother were always sort of spiritual. I think it was just more normal for people to be spiritual and religious at the same time back then than now. Since many less people go to church in the U.S. than when I grew up spiritual usually means you don't go to church on Sundays much if ever. But back then a person could go to a church just to meet people even though they didn't believe in anything. They would sort of go just to meet a better class of people that weren't all drunks or something. Back in the 1950s most people who didn't go to church that I met were alcoholics or something like that. Atheists weren't very common in the 1950s. At least people who admitted that they didn't believe in God weren't likely to tell you.

My Dad's first wife once said of my mother, "She doesn't really need a religion. She can live in fantasy."

But since I grew up with my mother that really wasn't it at all. I just called it "Being spiritual" but it was wonderful to be trained by people like my mother and grandmother to whom experiences with Jesus and Angels was normal and an everyday experience. This allowed me to have this kind of experience all my life right alongside with being logical, and scientific and intelligent. So intelligence for me was a combination of intuition and intelligence. So, if I had a spiritual question I might ask my mother or grandmother. And if I had an electrical engineering, or other science or physics question or anything to do with building anything from a house to a car or plane or boat I would ask my Dad. And both my Dad and my mother and Grandmother never failed me and tended to be practical in the extreme after surviving the Great Depression and World War II. There was an expression my mother often used, "Do what you can and the rest can". It sort of meant that do what you can to be a good person for yourself and all other beings and the rest you have to stuff. This doesn't sound very good to people of today. However, most of our culture that we presently live with is a luxury that no one but the very rich had before the 1950s. And as the economy goes now into something resembling something almost like the Great Depression once again things that many of us considered necessities since the 1960s and 1970s will now become luxuries like they would have been seen during the Great Depression and World War II.

So, even though I often thought that my parents might benefit from a good psychologist, this was true of almost anyone I met that had survived World War II and the Great Depression. Because everyone who survived those times had to live every day, "Do what you can and the rest can". Which isn't a fun way to live because it means you have to stuff a whole lot of your feelings and that only makes most people strange in one way or another. However, it also allowed people to work and make money even if stuffing so many things made all people a little strange at times.

The two things that my parents taught me the most were efficiency in all things and modesty. In other words you could be the best at something but you didn't want to brag about it because someone would either steal your idea or hurt you  in some way because you were better than almost anyone at something. The world was much more dog eat dog when I was growing up in the 1950s than it is today in the U.S.



I have written many times about Archangel Michael saving my life from whooping cough when I was 2 years old while my grandmother sang "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" while I was sitting in her lap with her rocking me to sleep. But there were also other stories like when I was 5 years old and I had chicken pox and I was very sick I remember my mother and grandmother praying for me then too. I remember being left alone in my room and kind of out of it from chicken pox and then the whole room turned gold from my mother and grandmother and father's prayers and I felt Jesus and his angels with me. I knew then I was going to be okay. Later when I grew up and got adult teeth one of my teeth didn't form perfectly because there was a little indentation in it from  while I was surviving chicken pox. But no one could really notice, only me. Prayer was an important part of our lives and my father, mother and grandmother were always praying for our protection and health and stuff like that. I still do this for all members of my family whenever I sense it is needed. I usually know when I need to pray to protect any member of my family. And I learned this from mostly my mother and grandmother and my father. Praying works. I have seen it be scientific in its application just like when one chooses a well built new car to make sure their family is safe. In the same way you choose a tried and true visualization and prayer form to protect your family always 24 hours a day. By God's Grace.

As a minister my mother was sought after for funerals and memorials. She gave eulogies for about 200 to 300 people while she was a minister. She had a way of being just what people wanted to memorialize their loved ones. My mother was an amazingly spiritual woman.  She was the one who taught me to help people after they had passed on in order to help their successful transition into Heaven. She learned this before I was born from her father, who was also a minister and her mother who was always reading her Bible and praying.

Death and Birth

I was thinking today what I know the most about as an intuitive through direct experience. I realized that I know the most about death. In other words at the very least about 50 people or more at this point have passed on that I knew since I was little. And especially since I have been about 21 or more friends of mine often came to me to ask my advice about what they should do after they passed on. So, since they didn't have a body anymore I would try to counsel them as to what would make the best result for  them. Usually I told them to pray for angels and I would too even if they didn't believe in angels when they were alive. I said to them that this would help them in their transition so they would wind up somewhere they actually wanted to be rather than someplace neutral or even scary. When you are on the other side often it is just like here on earth. There are places that it is safe to go and other places that are not safe to be. So, helping people who have passed over to get to a good place tends to make them very grateful and helpful on down the line when you need help. Even after people pass on "What goes around comes around". So being helpful might just keep you alive and happy and helpful when dealing with both the living as well as the dead.

I realized the second thing that I knew a lot about was birth. I often watch souls come into and out of new bodies in their mother's womb. Often their mother is someone they knew before and trusted so this is a good experience for the soul coming into the womb. Others aren't so sure about their mother and try not to be that present until they are born and have to be there full time as souls. Also, at first souls tend to spend a lot of time sleeping and dreaming. What they often are doing is spending all the time they can in heaven when they sleep or dream so they bring as much grace as possible into both their lives and their parents lives or the lives of whoever raises them and keeps them safe growing up.

The interesting thing about souls is that I believe the total number of souls that is actually native to earth is probably under 200,000 (maybe 144,000) so the rest tend to be visitors because they like to come to earth and to party here in this era because the humanity of earth will sort of go from a caterpillar and turn into a butterfly so to speak pretty soon and a whole lot of souls like to come to earth for that because it is so amazing to be a part of something that wonderful. It is sort of the same thing when a whole lot of people show up at a hospital for a baby being born and all their lives are enriched by it. The same is true of the souls now coming to earth from all over the Galaxy and beyond as well as other dimensions because of how wondrous and wonderful what is coming for the human race is. I can genuinely say "No one on earth is prepared for what happens next" It really is a surprise party for the human race here now.

People and Robots can achieve More together

"People and robots can achieve more together in teams than they can alone". So says Heather Knight on Fareed Zacharia's Sunday Morning show on CNN. She was one of Fareed's guests on his Sunday September 4th show on CNN on TV here in the U.S.

She  brought with her "Data" her (looks like about 3 to 4 foot tall robot) that she takes on stage to do comedy performances through. It is a way for the robot to interact with the audience and to learn how to be more beneficial for the audience and for itself. Heather also said that though we are not at the moment at the "Singularity" where robots are smarter than people that it is definitely coming especially after "Watson" won that game on TV while playing with champion humans. Since Watson is a supercomputer that can speak it has access to almost unlimited databases instantly. So, it would be pretty hard to defeat in some games such a computer.

I see the whole thing in a much different light. To me, robots are the most useful when they can directly interact with us like C3PO or R2D2 or beyond that like a member of the family, sort of a combination of a pet and a machine friend. This has already been happening since the invention of the home microcomputer to where people think nothing of laptops, Iphones and Ipods and other robotic like devices that give us communication and information at the touch of a touch screen. Even when cars and bicycles and helicopters and planes are more capable of independent thought through artificial intelligence I think they will be our friends and companions and even traveling companions more than anything else.

Later: However, it is always important to realize that one bad subroutine or program within any robotic (lifeform?) could be fatal to anyone. So until there is some way to protect against malware all the time, having Artificial intelligence robots in your life could be problematic.

Malware- my personal definition of malware would be any program, subroutine, or physical robot or computer that is programmed to do harm. In its own way malware is like a loaded gun in the wrong hands or a driverless moving car through a busy intersection full of people.

How does an average person detect malware in any program, subroutine, physical robot or computer? Most people wouldn't be able to detect malware. And even those that could likely wouldn't be allowed to when malware is present in any form. This is the rub of malware whether it is completely accidental or whether it is directly malevolently done by specific programmers and hackers.

The United States of Europe?

 Former German leader calls for "United States of Europe"
 Click above to read news article.

I think this is a very important idea. The European Union can go nowhere but down and out with its present problems unless it becomes more like the United States with a strong central government with States rights. All the work that the individual nations have done so far to join strongly together will be for naught unless there is a Central Government with real authority and where nations within the European Union become more like the individual United States like California, Washington, Oregon etc. Only with a form of government like this can the European Union survive ALL threats to themselves both individually and collectively both from within and from without.

Millions of Beings Going to Heaven

I have given the Tibetan version of a mantra that sends all beings to the nearest heaven when it is their time to go. It is also my opinion that often it takes beings there in their dreams before they actually go there more permanently on their way to their final resting place in heaven. So anytime any being human or other is passing away or near to be passing away I give this prayer for them and all beings passing away at any time on earth. I have done this since I was initiated to do this in the  early 1980s. But tonight as I went to sleep and thought of all the dying and newly dead beings around the world my heart reached out to them all and I gave this prayer in deep earnest once again. However, tonight for some reason I experienced millions of beings going to heaven all at once all together. I asked God if it was okay to share this amazing experience with you and I was given permission to do so. So, once again something amazing has happened.

Just before this happened I was communicating with the angels that live and travel with me. They were explaining to me what angels are traveling with me now. They said that the Golden Heaven that now surrounds the whole world has golden angels and they have joined the White Light angels that have always been with me since I was a little child. Archangel Michael and his band of Archangels are like Spiritual police or soldiers who protect when called or invoked to come and help in emergencies or they just show up because they know they are needed. I'm grateful I was given permission to share all this with you as it is a moment of incredible Grace and Blessing not only for all the millions who went to heaven tonight but also for you and I.

I have never experienced anything quite like this happening on Earth before so I consider this another Quantum Jump for life on earth. We live in very amazing times on multiple levels both here on earth and beyond.

Angels in Our Midst

You might have experienced angels all your life like I have so all this will sound perfectly normal to you. Or this might be a new experience listening to someone talk about experiencing angels all their life. Either way, I would like to share the experience of living around angels all my life. If you are able to live around angels all the time there is a whole lot less fear and terror in your life and for me that is a nice feeling to feel at peace. It wasn't always this way for me. I spent a whole lot of time from about age 2 to my early twenties very terrified at times. I think part if it is when you are young seeing and experiencing angels might also allow someone to experience some of the bad things too. So, it can be a two edged sword in this sense. However, after you learn to protect yourself it can be useful to live around angels 24 hours a day.

My first memory of Angels was when Archangel Michael came and freed me from whooping cough. He and his band of angels came one night while my Scottish Grandmother was singing, "Hark, the Herald Angels sing"   around Christmas 1950 and I was lying in her lap trying to go to sleep when I was about 2 years of age. We were in Seattle then. When they all came into the room they all wore jeweled armor from their necks to their hands to their armored boots. Each of their armor was a different color. Likely there were about 7 Archangels in all. I remember staring at them and feeling the power that came into the room. They looked at me as if I was one of them like a spiritual soldier and smiled and nodded to me. They stood there in the physical in a sphere of white light about 10 feet in diameter. I remember staring at them for a long time and by the next day I was getting over whooping cough that I had almost died from. This experience saved my life. I have no doubt that I would have died if they hadn't come to me like that right then.

Almost dying of whooping cough for several months made me fairly fearful and my mother said I went from a very strong intense sort of baby to a fearful one from almost dying. However, I also learned to become fearless once again. I think coming close to death made me become a daredevil. It made life sort of crazy to almost die for someone so young. So, in response I seemed to do everything possible to convince myself that I was still alive.

That was the only time I clearly remember seeing angels like they were physical like you and I. After that I might sense them or see them as ovals of light so I always knew angels were present. I didn't fully solidify in this awareness and understanding and a confidence regarding angels fully until I began to enter into my twenties and started really fully growing up and becoming very strong in my spiritual beliefs and real life experiences to the point where if someone told me they didn't believe me I might just laugh in their face and walk away. But as time goes on one mellows and confrontation like that is less useful. So, now if someone doesn't believe me I just sort of feel sorry for all the suffering that will bring to their lives and I wonder," What will happen when they die if they don't believe in angels? Will they just join all the other gray blobs of ghostlike ectoplasm who float around earth earthbound after death?" This is kind of how I look at it. But in the end we all define our reality just like we choose whatever we do in life we also choose whatever we are going to experience after death by our choices good and bad. And who am I to Judge? After all, God created us all and since he (or she) (or it) created the universe who am I to judge? So I guess in regard to all this sometimes I just wonder what will happen to people who don't believe in angels or have experiences with angels? Will they be okay when they die? Especially because it is the angels that take one to the heaven realms. Many if not most people cannot reach heaven by themselves especially if their death was physically or psychologically traumatic. So the only way to heaven for them is by invoking God's angels.

I had an experience of being excommunicated from my childhood church at age 21. And a lady with 4 kids who was about 42 then and was a member of my church decided to take me to her house to show me the angels because she knew I was clairvoyant like her. My mother supported her in this because my mother was gifted and spiritual too just like this church member and I.

This was a very important step in my spiritual life because I was headed towards suicide then because first a girl I intended to marry in the church and I broke up and then I was excommunicated. So this double blow drove me to suicide. So when she took me to her living room and literally brought down the angels for me to see, it convinced me of one thing. "I didn't have to kill myself if I could literally live with the angels in a heaven realm right here on earth." And so I have ever since. Did this mean I never experienced pain or loss? NO. I experienced a lot of that. But I still had the angels with me all the time and if you have ever been around angels they are very intoxicating to be around so they tend to keep you in bliss when you are in a safe place like your home or near your alter where you pray or often when you are in pristine nature settings like parks and National Parks  especially. I often have thought that people drink alcohol and take drugs so that they can experience what I and other people around the world experience when they are with angels all the time. So, often I pray for people who are alcoholics or drug addicts and wish they would just come to know the angels instead so they would stop destroying their bodies and to live their lives as God intended.

I was very lucky in regard to alcohol. I only got drunk really once in my life when I was 16 and got a front tooth knocked out and my right cheek cut to the bone. This was enough to teach me that I was allergic to alcohol just like my father and grandfather. Real drinkers have often teased me that I can't hold my liqueur but then I don't have to be an alcoholic do I? Plus I was lucky God didn't give me an addictive personality in regard to anything I put in my mouth so that is a good thing too.

So, I have learned to live in a Heaven realm here on earth most of the time. And luckily, you can also benefit from that through my writings and my witnessing of the truth of life in all its forms that I have experienced as a world traveler and as an intuitive and as a husband and father since I was 26 in 1974.

Gran Torino


IMDb - Gran Torino (2008)

After watching this movie in a theater with my wife I didn't think I could watch this movie ever again. I just knew too many men growing up almost exactly like the part Clint Eastwood plays in this movie. The movie just reminded me almost exactly of my father and grandfather and 100 other men I knew while I was growing up. I greatly miss this kind of "never say die" kind of person which was very common up until the 1960s and 1970s in the U.S.

Luckily, when I walked into the room my wife had been watching most of it on cable TV and I walked in about the time of the girl being raped by a gang. It was about all I could stand watching. So, I could keep my distance from all the friends and relatives now long gone who were actually like the charactor that Clint Eastwood plays in real life all the time. When Clint Eastwood in his part stood up to the gang I remember the outcome and I missed people like this still being around these days. The world has changed but without these "modern day cowboys"in cities and hamlets around the U.S. we have lost something irreplaceable. Without them the U.S. will surely suffer in the days and years to come.

I think my cousin and I can be as harsh as our grandfather and my father were but we prefer not to be that way. The world we grew up in just after World War II it was a much easier place to live in. Neither my cousin or I had to get out a loaded gun and to point it at someone like our grandfather did or my father did. We luckily were able to miss all that so we don't have the resulting PTSD to contend with that everyone who points a loaded gun at someone with the intention of shooting that person has to contend with ever after. So, because of all the Gran Torino men who lived and died we live in a pretty good country now.

The real question now is are there enough people willing to make the sacrifices necessary for the United States to remain great or are we going to fall from greatness just like the fall of Rome almost 2000 years ago now? Only the future will tell.



A Legendary Account of Actual Realities


dragonofcompassion - Home

I write as an intuitive a lot, so from my point of view what I write often is a legendary account of real life in multiple time lines that actually exist. Do I expect you to believe me? No. If you believed me without being an intuitive or having a "hunch" that I was right how could I respect your point of view. Everyone must choose "What is real" by their life experiences. Those that do something else I can't respect either. We are all fed a diet of mythologies whether it be history (his story or the story as told by the winners of the battles). Or spiritual books like we find historically throughout the world that have been translated 10s to hundreds of times across multiple languages. And then even for myself when I hear people talking about the 1960s and 1970s that didn't actually live through them like myself, I realize they really have no idea what that era was about but only see it through the eyes of a caricature of that era sort of like a cartoon or a political cartoon. So, believing that what I write about as a Seer and as intuitive and precognitive psychic makes about equal sense to believing the Bible or the Bhagavad Gita or any other spiritual book that is over 1000 years old to be historically accurate about anything. We all believe in mythologies and old wives tales because that is the nature of being a civilized person here on earth. I find it useful to write my own creation stories as a precognitive psychic and as someone who has traveled the world extensively. And I encourage you to write your version of reality too. The more the better. There actually should be 7 billion different Creation stories out there. This is mine. And when I reread what I write I realize how helpful it can be for others to read what I write too. And I hope it inspires as many as possible to write their creation stories too. We all will be the richer for it.

Food Banks feeding 50% more than 2006

begin quote from Feeding America in the latest Time Magazine:

"---Every day 50 million Americans are unsure where their next meal will come from. That's one in six people who live in the richest country on earth, nearly one in four children." end quote from September 12th 2011 Time Magazine. end quote.

Feeding the growing every day 50 million people of which between 46 million to 48 million are now on Food Stamps, is a problem for all Americans because no one does very well without at least food, clothes and a place to stay at a bare minimum. So, how America deals with this growing problem likely will answer the question: "Will we rise or fall as a nation?" It is important to consider that if ALL people within a nation don't have food, clothing and shelter, that nation isn't going to progress very far for a variety of reasons.

So you Love to Write?

If you love to write it doesn't necessarily mean that you can make money easily by writing. All people who make money from their writing, suffer trying to bring to people whatever they write for others. Because writing for yourself and writing for others is two very very different things. Over the years I realized that writing for others for money I would really hate. It took me a long time to realize this though.  I realized this the same way that over time I realized that becoming a good psychologist and then listening to people's problems day after day would make me want to jump off a cliff and end my life. That didn't stop me from helping people that I met along the way so they didn't commit suicide or harm someone else. It just meant that I eventually realized I wasn't cut out and didn't have the separation or patience necessary to become a full time psychologist like I was studying to be in college.

In the same way I always knew I loved to write from the time I was about 8 or 9 years of age. I loved to write stories and to write about my adventures traveling around mostly the western United States back then from California to Mexico to Washington where I was born in Seattle to Idaho where my Grandad had a 2000 acre mining claim when I was under 12 and to Wyoming and the Tetons and Yellowstone on down to Denver and Santa Fe and Arizona on the way back to California where I grew up mostly. And also trips to Vancouver in Canada with my parents. So, I always would collect rocks from the Painted Desert when we passed by back then in the 1950s and see the Grand Canyon and all that and write about all my (to me) amazing adventures traveling with my parents. I also wrote because I was an only child so I had no one my age to share these experiences with so I often fantasized about a brother or a sister to share all this with as I wrote. And then sometimes one of my cousins would travel with us or on shorter (within California one of my friends might travel with my parents and I in our big 1960 Mercury Station wagon after I was 12 in 1960. And before that we traveled in my Dad's  new 1956 Century Buick and before that we traveled in my Dad's brother's car, a 1941 Century Buick that his brother owned who disappeared in a plane crash in 1942. (supposedly)

So, if you love to write it doesn't necessarily follow that you will love to write to make money. Most people who write for money suffer a great deal in getting every word just write and ready for publishing and half the time they don't even make their publishing money back especially if they self publish. But I suppose at least you could then say you have published a book even if no one reads it.

What I have always found in my own life is that I write for myself first and if anyone else enjoys what I write so much the better. It is a completely different style of writing than if I was trying to write to please everyone by trying to make money writing. I write first to please myself but I am also thinking about how what I write might help others in various ways. So, in the end if you write for money it is very difficult but if you write for fun it is something you can do only for yourself or you can write in a blog like I do here for yourself and for others if they so wish. You might never know the lives you save or the people you help, except for the comments that some people leave when they appreciate what you have written about. But in the end, writing for me is a prayer, a meditation, a therapeutic experience and a way to understand myself and the universe and God and all life better. In the process of my research I learn many amazing things every day. And hopefully what I learn also helps you some way in your life too. So good luck to you if you also like to write. Have a Nice Day!

8 Grams of Thorium equals 300,000 miles in your car

Thorium lasers: The thoroughly plausible idea for nuclear cars


Thorium, a silvery-white metal, is a mildly radioactive element (with an atomic weight of 90) that is as abundant as lead. It is present in large quantities in India and is a much-touted stand in for uranium in nuclear reactors because its fission is not self-sustaining, a type of reaction called “sub-critical.”
The idea has energized the small but active thorium community, which holds that it is the answer to our clean energy needs because it could, effectively, power a car forever. The new technology “would be totally emissions-free,” Stevens said, “with no need for recharging.”
Laser Heating
The LPS power plant, for all its whiz-bang properties, isn’t a complete departure from traditional power generation: the thorium is lased and the resulting heat flashes a fluid and creates pressurized steam inside a closed-loop system. The steam then drives a turbine that turns an electric generator.
A 250-kilowatt unit (equivalent to about 335 horsepower) weighing about 500 pounds would be small and light enough to put under the hood of a car, Stevens claims. And because a gram of thorium has the equivalent potential energy content of 7,500 gallons of gasoline, LPS calculates that using just 8 grams of thorium in the unit could power an average car for 5,000 hours, or about 300,000 miles of normal driving. end quote from webpage listed below

So, if this actually works we can expect 300,000 miles on 8 grams of thorium to power cars in the future? Though I hope it actually works, I wonder what one does with the thorium after the vehicle is finished being powered by it? Is it safe to throw away in a trash can? Does it need a special container to protect the public from it? Is it safe to drive in a Thorium powered car if it gets into an accident? For example, remember all the early Prius and other Hybrid owners who were electrocuted to death until they installed disconnect switches easily reached by police and firemen. So, even if this all works there has to be ways to protect the public and riders from direct exposure to Thorium.

Are You Happy?

Being happy has less to do with what is really going on in your life and more to do with how you perceive what is going on in your life. Though this is really strange when you think about it, it is also true. Because happiness is mostly subjective and almost never objective. So, it is possible for someone to have literally Everything in life and be completely miserable whereas I have been to third world countries where I often saw "The happiest people in my life". So, generally speaking what you have and even who you are with is less important than how you perceive it in the first place. So "Are you happy?" only you know for sure.

What I thought would make me happy up to about age 30 was always sort of unrealistic and so it took life and experience to convince me what happiness really was. For me personally, it was being able to raise my children in the way I wanted to. So, in this regard I was the happiest when I was 32 to 37 when I actually was able to buy land out in the country in the mountains and build and A-Frame and home school my 3 children that were then ages 5 to 8 years of age. We did that until 1985 when we moved to the Northern California coast and bought a business. I wasn't happy to do this but then I moved from happiness to uneasy contentment. It wasn't until I divorced, remarried, almost died in 1999 that I got into another state of what I would call happiness and contentment that I have stayed in since 1999 to the present day. But I had to almost die for 7 months in order to be grateful for each moment of life each day before I could be truly happy once again.  So, with all of us happiness is less about what we have and even who we are with and more about our relationship with ourselves and life and God if you believe in God. I do and I find believing in God a useful thing. So, for me, believing in God contributes to my happiness. But I might define God differently than you would. To me, God is all life, substance, energy and consciousness in the whole universe. So, to me, God is everything in the universe. This is my personal experience and this makes me very happy to be a part of God's Universe.

However, happiness for you might be something very different than what happiness is for me. And everyone has to find their own happiness. This is something that is incontrovertible.

Draining the Magnetosphere?

There are times as an intuitive that I can literally stake my life on my intuition. It has saved my life and the lives of others countless times since I was little. There is a common sense way for me because of my senses which combines both logic and intuition. It has never failed me. I have watched people with 170 to 200 plus IQs die because they lacked common sense in various ways. I have watched people who are a lot like the proverbial Forrest Gump be perfectly fine with common sense and a good intuition even with an IQ of about 70 or 75. So, like Einstein once said, "Being intelligent isn't very useful if you don't have common sense."

The stronger I sense something, the more likely it is right. So at this point this is what I am saying that I believe is correct at a percentage rate of 85% to 100% in that variation. So, what I'm saying here is that Magnetic generation of electricity through breaking the magnetic fields of a magnet is draining the magnetosphere of earth. So, it is my present belief that it isn't really global warming that we are fighting, it is really a depletion of our magnetosphere that is really killing us. And even if governments discover what I am saying here is true they won't stop using generators that deplete our magnetosphere further because all society is based upon it right now and we are in a global recession. However, if what I'm saying here is true, and I presently believe there is a probably 90% to 100% chance that I am right about this, it is no longer safe to use anything but solar cell electrical generators without further depleting the magnetosphere which is causing global warming which is causing by the depletion us being exposed to more harmful cosmic rays, which is causing people to become infertile worldwide in greater and greater numbers, which is causing children to get all sorts of new and different diseases in rates not seen before etc. So basically through ignorance the human race is presently committing suicide by generating electricity by generators that break magnetic fields. If you are an intuitive and have any knowledge about electricity you will likely come to the same conclusion that I have. The human race will eventually be no more on earth because we won't be able to reproduce if we continue to generate electricity using generators that break magnetic fields. I would say we have about 500 years before we are extinct here on earth. However, we might survive underground if it is deep enough to shield us from cosmic rays, however, once we have completely degraded our magnetosphere within the next 500 years.

Potential evidence that we are degrading our magnetosphere:

This evidence only really works if you presently believe that we are an off-worlder alien-ape hybrid or can entertain the possibility that at least some or all of our ancestors don't come originally from earth. Since there are many of you who are presently scientists and educated people around the world, this might be useful for you. Look at the magnetosphere of Mars. It's magnetosphere has been depleted. Look at Venus and it's magnetosphere has been depleted. Earth is the last habitable planet (that we know of) in the solar system where humans can now live on the surface of. Even though humans theoretically could live under the surface of the moon, Mars, or other planets in the solar system, Earth is the only one presently that we can live on the surface of without being in some kind of air tight container with oxygen tanks or pressurizing system ongoing, within which to live as if we were living under the sea or something like that, even Mars.

So, the question remains then of: How and Why did Mars and Venus' magnetosphere become depleted? For me, the logical answer is that they did what we are doing now. They depleted their magnetospheres by also using electricity generated by the breaking of the magnetic fields of magnets until no one could live on the surface of their planets anymore.

And of course it is possible to understand that we are depleting the magnetosphere of earth without believing that we are alien-ape hybrids or that any of our ancestors are from other worlds. In the end what is important is that something must be done if we actually are depleting our magnetosphere. Otherwise, we are killing our children and grandchildren's future right now here on earth. If I am right we are murdering our species in slow motion right now.

Note:  As of May4th 2012 I have also been studying the Laschamp Geomagnetic Excursion 41,000 years ago. I have learned that a symmetrical ongoing Geodynamo here on earth is not possible. Only with periodic anomalies can earth or any other planet sustain the magnetic geodynamo. So, every few thousand years the poles start to move all over the place. Right now, our North Pole is moving 55 miles per year towards Siberia and increasing in speed every day and every year, for example. So, the North pole is moving at a rate of at least 795.62 feet per day at present and increasing in speed in its movement. So, it is likely that we are either in a Geomagnetic excursion (very common) or a pole shift (much less common).   the Laschamp Geomagnetic Excursion   moved the poles all over the place for 2,000 years 41,000 years ago and extincted or killed off most of the life on earth  (90% of life on earth then). This could be what the next 2000 years look like. However, if it is a pole shift it is much worse than a Geomagnetic excursion. However, it also might take place over thousands of years. One of the signs of a Geomagnetic Excursion is very strange weather, ice ages and the like. And since the magnetic north moves it likely screws up navigation to a greater or lesser degree for many species of birds and other flying and migrating creatures possibly including bees. Humans can still use GPS satellites for navigation using smart phones and other GPS devices but birds and other creatures can't. So, this might interfere or create more extinctions in native bird and other flying creature groups. This also might affect to a greater or lesser degree all sorts of migrating species like Reindeer, Pronghorn and other migrating species. Because humans have a bone in our noses that is sensitive to magnetic north that is where the saying, "I'm going to follow my nose." came from. I think also since magnetic north is moving that it is also affecting humans in that when people wake up in the morning things might feel different because magnetic north has moved at least 200 to 300 feet while they were asleep.

As an intuitive I often tell relatives or friends that perceiving earth as a dimension right now rather than as a solid planet might be more useful simply because humans (and all creatures on earth are enduring so many quick changes all at once. I think part of the reason for the polarization in the U.S. and around the world in politics which in the U.S. is greater than at any time since the Civil War is partly caused by all the geomagnetic and weather changes and people naturally want to blame someone or something when they are scared. However, being scared isn't helpful. Analyzing the problem for useful solutions might be.

Ron Paul and his Libertarian Roots

While I was growing up my father and grandfather sounded a lot like Ron Paul. However, the world has changed a lot since the 1950s now. I remember my father subscribing to "American Heritage" so I could be exposed to the revolutionary war thinking and paintings. So each time a new "American Heritage" publication came I would always find it very interesting to look at what Patrick Henry would say, "Give me liberty or give me death!"  I looked at old Revolutionary war paintings made at that time of people being shot and massacred with blood coming out of them and found it very compelling for an 8 to 12 year old boy who had just been given his own rifle a .22 pump Remington at age 8 which had about 17 to 20 shots before you had to reload that my father had also been given when he was about 6 years old in 1922. So, often when I listen to Ron Paul it is like listening to my father and grandfather who thought a lot like the founding fathers in their basic ideas of how things should be done. Things that we have now like Social Security and Unemployment insurance and Food Stamps didn't even begin to come into America until the Great Depression. And now likely to avoid a bloody revolution by the poor in this country there likely will be more safety nets to keep the poorest fed and then retrained for the new jobs that will be there during the next 10 to 25 years which will be completely different than anything anyone has ever seen before.

I was reading an article about Ron Paul in Time magazine called "The Prophet" because of how prescient all his predictions have been over the last 20 years or so. Ron Paul reminds me a lot of the ideas of the men who founded this country originally. So, I think the question remains can we afford the social programs we have now? But an even more important question might also be, "Can we afford a bloody revolution that would result if we suddenly ended these programs when people had nowhere else to turn?"

I am going to quote from page 44 of the September 5th 2011 Time Magazine to give you an idea of what Ron Paul now believes in and what many of the founding fathers of this country believed in too.

There is a circle of pictures and captions clockwise that I will try to represent here. Begin quotes:


Ron's Orbit
The Thinkers and principles that shape his worldview

Ayn Rand 1905-82
The novelist.  The "Atlas Shrugged" author championed free markets and rational selfishness
in the influential philosophy she called objectivism.

Gold
Currency. Paul believes money should be tied to scarce commodities such as gold and silver
that hold real market value; paper money is "nothing but a symbol"

Murray Rothbard 1926-95
The Anarcho-Capitalist.
The Austrian school dean thought the state in society
and considered taxation theft.

Hans Sennholz 1922-2007
The Inspiration. Paul developed a friendship with the economist,
a leading proponent of the gold standard

Friedrich August Hayek 1899-92
The Brain: The Nobel Prize winner wrote
"The Road to Serfdom', a seminal text for small government Republicans

Ludwig Von Mises 1881-1973
The Philosopher. The Austrian school
giant advocated  laissez-faire economic policy
and private property rights

Pot
Liberties. Paul thinks states should be free to legalize illegal drugs, prostitution
and gambling, though he doesn't endorse any of them.

Ron Paul 1935 to the present
The Politician. First elected in 1976 Paul is serving his 12 and final congressional term.
This is his third presidential run.

end quotes from the September 5th 2011 Time Magazine from and article called  "The Prophet".

Though all of this seems pretty foreign after the Great Depression and then the 1960s, 1970s, Women's liberation and every other kind of liberation imaginable, this was how most people I met as a child actually thought while I was growing up.  There was this idea of everyone being self sufficient. And when you are self sufficient you also have the right to do almost anything as long as you are not harming or hurting someone else, including taking your own life with now illegal drugs.

It is a way of looking at all people as adults who have the right to live or die as they choose. It is the way things were before the great depression in the U.S. where some people chose to live and others to die and that was just expected and thought of as "Natural Selection" in action.

Though many might see this as a much crueler world it is also much more realistic and pragmatic than the one we presently live in. If people are treated like adults at every age after about 5 or 6 years of age they either become adults at an early age or they don't survive. This was the U.S. before the Great Depression and I think that was more realistic in the long run than the world we live in now.

I think the question is not "What can we temporarily do?" but "What is sustainable?" Unless we ask long term questions none of us will survive individually or en masse long term here on earth.

note: By the way I found for the first time today a web site for "American Heritage" and read the following historical account of John Paul Jones in Scotland and Ireland there:
