Politics and Your Power
Let's chat, for a moment or two, about what's going on in the world
right now. Clearly, the values, core beliefs, institutions, and
leaders we've placed our faith in for most of our lives are no
longer to be trusted. The mainstream media is filled with stories
of instability in financial affairs, volatility in national
affairs, and downright strangeness in personal affairs. Were we to
believe everything we hear on TV we would surely sink into
oblivion. Where, then, can we look for sanity? Where is the silver
lining we were promised so long ago?
It's as close as our own heart, our next smile, our next hug. It's
with us every step of the way, in each and every moment of our
lives. We needn't go hunting far and wide for it, lest we become
embroiled and encumbered by the changes going on outside of us.
There are a few truths, however, that may be helpful for us to
remember as we go through the days ahead. First of all, we can
remind ourselves that the bailouts and gyrations of our financial
systems are completely 100% orchestrated. Nothing is happening that
hasn't been thoroughly planned out well in advance by those who
make a profit off of the wars, sicknesses, storms, and money
fluctuations. The stock market, for example, does not go up and
down according to the ups and downs of the market. Never has, never
will. It goes up and down in strict accordance with the
instructions of a few selfish men who sit around a table in some
back room somewhere deciding what's going to happen in the days to
come.
By the same token, the diseases of today are man made. They do not
come from out of nowhere. They are thought up and then sold to us
by conscienceless think tankers in another back room which is,
perhaps, right across the hall from the financial think tankers who
create our money challenges. The same goes for all of our wars, our
weather, and every other aspect of the mainstream news we receive.
It's all an orchestration, a construct, not changing due to the
whims of the markets or masses, but due solely to the selfish
agendas of those who would control us. And that brings us to the
exciting, enticing subject of politics.
I know it's popular to get all riled up about the political scene
nowadays, however, politics is an area that's wise to keep in
perspective. Politics, by definition, is the art of controlling and
manipulating people, and to the extent that we spend our precious
energy talking on and on about who's going to win, or what changes
they say they're going to make, we are allowing ourselves to be
distracted and steered away from our own power. For, as we choose,
even in the slightest degree, to turn to others to resolve our
individual problems, no matter how noble he or she appears, we
relinquish our seat upon the throne of our own power. We set
ourselves up to become victims and play the blame game later on.
Essentially, when we obsess on politics, we are feeding the hand
that's biting us.
Once we realize what we're doing, we can stop turning the reins of
our own empowerment over to someone else and start to take back
control over our own lives. In truth, the solutions for today's
challenges will not come from the political arena. Today's
politicians, without exception, are bought and sold, lock, stock,
and barrel. Like puppets, they do the bidding of private masters or
else they wouldn't be standing on the podium in front of us.
Regardless of who wins, the results of the upcoming elections will
change nothing of importance, and to think otherwise is only to
delude ourselves further.
~The more you align yourself with the Family of Man
[instead of a
country],
the sooner your fears will subside
and the closer you
come to your greatest happiness~
Today's issues can only be resolved by learning to live by
manifesting. The days of living by the whims of the politicians and
their mysterious money are rapidly coming to a close. Those who are
currently honing their manifesting skills are the ones who everyone
else will be turning to in the near future. They will be the ones
who are creating a happy life for themselves whether there is money
or not, and regardless of what the TV and newspapers are saying.
Indeed, the time will come when everyone is living by manifesting,
and, in doing so, we will access our own personal power and say
good-bye to the people and systems that do not serve our highest
good.
That's why I wrote
The Code - because subtly embedded within its
lines is a strong foundation for peace, for freedom, for abundance
and comfort for all. I am absolutely certain that we have
everything we need, within us and outside of us, right now, to
create any lifestyle we choose. Living by manifesting is our
birthright. We can start today by deliberately manifesting small
things and work our way up from there. There's nothing to stop us
except ourselves.
Down But Not Out in Sedona - A Hot Intention Story
I don't know about you but I'm being tested a lot nowadays. Last
week I was driving Highway 89A, the awe-inspiring thoroughfare that
runs out of Flagstaff into Sedona, Arizona. I was on my way to
Phoenix where my soul family was gathering in preparation to take
The Intenders Road Show out to the world. About halfway down the
mountain, on the steep road that snakes through Oak Creek Canyon,
my van started smelling weird, like something was burning. Since
there was no place to pull over and no mechanics in sight, I
decided to keep going - and I intended that I make it to town
safely.
By the time I reached Sedona smoke was billowing out of the right
front side of the engine. With the burning odor so strong I could
hardly stand it, I coasted into the parking lot of a local health
food store - just as my brakes gave out!
Parking behind an adobe wall, I got out to take a look and
immediately saw that my right front wheel had been on fire.
Something inside (it turned out to be the rubber boot), was still
smoldering. Now . . . I'm a bit of a mechanic myself, but without
special tools and a few new parts there was no way I could work on
it, especially in a health food store parking lot. All I could do
was intend that I find a good mechanic and also intend that he or
she charged me less that the $800 I had to my name at the time.
Looking around and only seeing tourist shops, I decided to go into
the health food store and find a phone book to locate a mechanic or
a tow truck. As I walked across the hot asphalt, a pretty lady who
was having coffee on a patio nearby smiled and waved at me like we
were old friends. I walked up, introduced myself, and told her of
my plight. She said her name was Garielle and asked where my van
was. I showed her and she pointed to the adobe wall and said, "On
the other side of that wall is the main street, and on the other
side of the street is my friend, Karl's shop. He's the best
mechanic in town."
Long story short, in less than 2 minutes we were in Karl's office;
within 30 minutes he had given me a quote of $600 to replace my
front brakes, rotors, calipers, boots, and wheel bearings; and, by
the end of the day my van was working perfectly again and I was
back on the road, heading for Phoenix with $200 still left in my
pocket!
Oh, and by the way . . . not too long ago I would have gotten
flustered and angry at this seemingly strange turn of events. But
this time I didn't. I stayed on the bright side, made my
intentions, and knew that it would all work out for the highest
good. And you know what? It did! In fact, looking back on it all, I
was filled with gratitude throughout the entire experience. I made
several new friends and got to hang out in Sedona all day. My van
couldn't have broken down in a better spot!
Berni's Healing Story
Here's a very inspiring note that came in three days ago from our
friend Berni Higgins in Albuquerque.
My husband, Larry, had a physical therapy appointment on Wednesday
of this week. It went very well. The therapist had 2 new
adjustments in mind for pinched nerves, which was Larry's main problem in
his back. She explained that she was told to put an intention on
the adjustment when she started, which she did - but we didn't. It
was good . . . On the second adjustment we all put an intention on
it when she started & all throughout it, and it was amazing! She
and Larry both felt it straighten out. They physically felt it! We
were all so excited!. She is an Intender also. It really goes to
show that there is power in numbers. Keep intending...it works!
Thank You for Sharing, Berni
The Code
From a practical, "How do I do it?" point of view, The Code books
and DVDs are the foremost works today on the subject of Intentions
and Living by Manifesting. The people in the new 3 hour DVD set, On
the Road with The Code, are the real deal. They have actually been
applying these principles in their lives and their stories show you
how you can do it too. "If you liked The Secret, You'll LOVE On the
Road with The Code!"
You can order the 2 DVD Set of On the Road with The Code or the book that inspired it all, The Code: 10 Intentions for a Better World at www.intenders.com.
Aaron Jacobson's CD - Wrestling with Angels
We've received several letters lately from people who have seen our
new DVD, On the Road with The Code, requesting to know where they
can purchase Aaron Jacobson's remarkable CD, Wrestling with Angels.
After our last Road Show event, Aaron decided to reissue his album
with all new artwork and it turned out so beautiful that we added
it to our Intenders Shopping
Cart.
Wrestling with Angels includes songs like "Lullaby of the Archangels" and
"Branches of the Soul", stirring pieces that have taken our
workshops into a whole new dimension. It also showcases "A Father's
Song" which often closes our live events with a delicate touch.
This entirely acoustic album features 11 songs leaving you with a
sense of transcendence and empowerment. Five Stars! We highly
recommend it!

A Timely Passage from The Reunion: A Parable for Peace (Book 2 of
The Code)
"Your lesson," she answered, "is to Shine your light. Speak out
for that which serves you and your friends and your world. We who
abide in Spirit will be with you always, helping you. You need not
worry or be concerned about what to do next. You are being guided.
Your path is sacred and it leads you to all that is holy. Think
about those two words--sacred and holy--as you walk these woods, my
brother. They are what await you on the other side of your fears."
INTEND YOUR DAY!
