The most striking thing about the archaeology of ancient Crete is how prominent women were in that culture. This was a society in which women had very high status. In contrast to later cultures like Greece or Rome, there were no images of warfare or weapons, and a lack of actual weapons in Minoan archaeology. In fact, many archaeologists believe that ancient Crete was a peaceful, egalitarian society. So... Is a matriarchal society the solution to our problems?

The whole paradigm of the genetic engineering technology is based on a misunderstanding - the "One Gene, One Protein" hypothesis of 70 years ago. But the Human Genome project completed in 2002 showed that this hypothesis is wrong. Every scientist now learns that any gene can give more than one protein and that inserting a gene anywhere in a plant eventually creates rogue proteins. Some of these proteins are obviously allergenic or toxic.

The sun is the supreme giver of all life and the greatest source of energy existing in our solar system. The receiving of sunlight not only works to stimulate the brain, but is also held as one of the 5 essential elements in both Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurvedic Medicine. The field of epigenetics has further discovered that by simply exposing our naked skin to sunlight, over 3,000 epigenome DNA switches are turned on or off.

The combined oligarchical complex of government, corporate, finance and military is formed in a steep pyramid system, with the figurative "1%" (those in control) at the top and the "99%" (those under control) below. But anyone who says that people cannot change things, that we are powerless to the control systems that already exists, does not realize "the system" began as imagination, an idea.... and with new, better ideas, we can change those outdated systems that other people once created.

In my own exploration of essential oils, a specific ailment high on my list was relief from muscle and joint pain. The oil of choice? Birch essential oil. Not only is Birch effective against common, everyday aches and pains, but it is outstanding (if not superior) in providing relief from arthritis joint pain and those deep, spasmodic cramps that only seem to visit in the dead of night.

The only obstacle to our personal peace of mind is our unconscious desire to get rid of peace. Don’t believe it? How often do we say or think something along these lines.. "If someone else had behaved differently I wouldn’t be upset or angry". Injecting “but” in the middle of a thought or statement keep us from experiencing what we really want – to be happy and at peace, right now. 

The Electric Universe theory is a coherent cross-disciplinary “Big Picture” of our universe, unifying the nuclear forces, magnetism and gravity as manifestations of an electrostatic force. And the consequences are far-reaching: We know nothing of the origin of the universe... We have no idea of the age or extent of the universe, or the source of the energy that forms the universe... But we are intimately connected with the power and intelligence of the universe.

As a home schooling parent, it’s been clear to me for many many years that there is something wrong with the education system. Someone, somewhere has decided what we are going to learn and how we are going to learn it. Some one set the bench mark of who is smart and who is not. It’s a ‘controlling, factory like’ system that ‘processes’ our kids in batches.
