Autism Rates Increase Drastically again in the 90s

Here's the Autism Increase facts as presented on Buergerwelle's website:

http://www.buergerwelle.de/pdf/autism_increase.doc

I knew that it had gone up from 1 in a 1000 in the 80s to several out of every 100 children in the early 90s but this just shows that the continuing increase in ambient radiation that has occurred in the 90s has made this situation even more and more severe.

It's like "wake up out of your unconsciousness, people! Stop living in denial! Stop thinking that change doesn't start with you!"

I find it amazing that people just don't care about their own health or the health of the planet, but even more amazing that they are willing to let their children's brains be fried just because of a stupid and selfish need to use their radiation boxes - i.e. cell phones - and WiFi. I know people find it "convenient" but so was Chernobyl.

You have a Choice - that is - unless you are Unconscious!

After reading some more of Eckhart Tolle's "The Power of Now" I have come to realize that given the facts below, the only reason that one would continue to harbor one of these weapons (I consider it a weapon) that harms oneself, one's family, future generations, and our precious wildlife (frogs are now dying all over the world because of this technology) is because of "unconsciousness."


paul

"Choice implies consciousness - a high degree of consciousness. Without it, you have no choice. Choice begins the moment you disidentify from the mind and its conditioned patterns, the moment you become present. Until you reach that point, you are unconscious, spiritually speaking. This means that you are compelled to think, feel, and act in certain ways according to the conditioning of your mind. That is why Jesus said: 'Forgive them, for they know not what they do.' This is not related to intelligence in the conventional sense of the word. I have met many highly intelligent and educated people who were also completely unconscious, which is to say completely identified with their mind. In fact, if mental development and increased knowledge are not counterbalanced by a corresponding growth in consciousness, the potential for unhappiness and disaster is very great." p 188-189

The Inability to Make Inferences

The Inability to Make Inferences Inbox

"Someone once asked a former prime minister of New Zealand what he thought about all the Kiwis going to Australia and living off the dole (i.e. welfare). His reply was 'that every time a Kiwi goes to Australia, the average IQ of both countries goes up'."

As an experiment, I told this joke to all my students at Kyushu University (one of the top ten universities in Japan) in both English and Japanese and out of the eight classes I was teaching with an average of between 25-50 students per class (about 300 students), only one student was able to figure why the IQ in both countries would go up - (he was in the one class where the students did not have to take a test to enter the university and of which the professors considered the students below par. On the other hand, none of the medical students could figure it out). I have even told this to Japanese professors who couldn't figure it out.

Now, cultural differences may play a part in this inability, but the point I want to make is that in a system where students are not given experiences to reflect on in order to figure out the answers to problems themselves, but rather given the answers to memorize in order to take a test, they are not going to develop this "natural" ability. Hence, a system like this actually harms their ability to actually "think" and often gives those people who do actually graduate from the top universities - because they are good at memorizing facts and taking tests - a false sense of intellectual superiority, which in turn becomes harmful to the rest of the population - since those people are usually the ones in positions to "pull the strings". This kind of system is endemic in Asia, but it is also part of Western education systems (but not to the degree it is in Asian systems). Unfortunately, I find this inability also endemic among most doctors I have had the opportunity to meet and talk with (except for of course the doctors on the ML. Scary, though if you think about it!

P.S. In case you didn't get "it", the reason the IQs in both countries would go up is because it was implied that (1) all Kiwis have higher IQs than all Aussies, and (2) any Kiwi that would want to go to Australia must have a lower IQ than your average Kiwi that wouldn't but naturally higher than any Aussie. :)

EMF Refugee Group

Anyone interested in joining the following group to learn more about the dangers posed by EMR and to consider the creation of possible EMF-Refuges?

Description


Throughout the world, with the proliferation of cell phones and their towers and other devices emitting electromagnetic radiation, we are seeing dramatic increases in a number of illnesses (chronic fatigue syndrome, autism, ADD, mental illnesses, suicides, bizarre crimes, cancers, brain tumors, leukemias - not to mention electrosensitivity).

Some people are able to realize that it is the electromagnetic and microwave radiation that is making them sick and have taken refuge in the few areas left that are out of cell phone range. These are the EMF Refugees. In Sweden, an EMF-free community called Frivolten is being set up. There are also groups formed in Italy and Ireland.

Unfortunately, there are many people who have a difficult time believing that EMFs can cause so much damage and even when confronted with the facts still choose to live in a state of denial. Yet, nothing deepens knowledge more than experience and for the people who have been dramatically affected by EMFs and can actually FEEL the microwaves being emitted by cell phones and their towers, there can be no denying this fact.

This ML has been created with the intent of bringing EMF refugees together in countries around the world to form their own EMF-free communities in natural environments where they can heal and create healing environments for the Earth and others.

It is only by coming together that we can be empowered to create positive change and healing for ourselves and others and counteract the negative effects caused by the proliferation of microwave and digital technology.

By creating our own EMF-free communities, we can draw attention to our plight and hopefully influence politics positively in our direction.

Here in Japan, the population is unwittingly being negatively affected by this technology. I strongly suspect School Refusal, Falling Academic Abilities, ADD, youth crimes, suicides, infertility and birth defects are caused by EMFs.

Every crisis represents not only danger, but also opportunity

I was reading "The Power of Now" and came across the following quote, which I think applies to our present situation regarding the dangers posed by this technology:

"Every crisis represents not only danger, but also opportunity....The opportunity that is concealed within every crisis does not manifest until all the facts of any given situation are acknowledged and fully accepted. As long as you deny them, as long as you try to escape from them or wish that things were different, the window of opportunity does not open up, and you remain trapped inside that situation, which will remain the same or deteriorate further."

So as long as people deny the dangers or try to ignore them, nothing will be done and the situation will deteriorate further, which is exactly what is happening with microwave and other emr technology just as it is happening with Global Warming.

The industries want to create (unnecessary) "needs" for us - and many of us feel trapped by these needs - so we become slaves to the machine (whether it be our cell phone, our sleeping pills, or our automobile). But that machine is killing us. We must break free of that machine.

Identification, Compassion, Unity and Oneness

Identification, Compassion, Unity and Oneness

One of the greatest emphasis or energy that can be expressed within a human body is compassion. If we are to think about the many events in which we obtained, listened, put ourselves in focus of, you will find that sometimes we leave a situation more full of self, sometimes we leave an event more full of others. Basically, what that means is "Did we go into the experience and be ourselves in relation to that experience - judging, comparing, categorizing, every element of the
experience or do we find compassion. Compassion gives us a lead into - a tool - in which we enter into a situation and we allow the situation in our heart.

There are many ways in which we can lead life. But some of the greatest and highest tools that are given to a human are the ones in which we are allowing our hearts to express - not just the thoughts as we feel they are perfect - but to really express life. The key to compassion is a willingness to become. Any teacher or master who attains states of God Realization is willing to release the self, the concept [of] how we hold onto things - and become something greater.

And the tool of compassion gives us an opening, a door, to that becoming something greater. Can you be in a room, such as amongst yourselves, and rather than feeling "me" in relation to the room, to the other individuals, to the experience of this "being" [speaking], "Can I begin to allow my heart to be what is interacting with this room - so that I 'become' with compassion - or elements that I see - and not hold to myself as separate, for some sense of safety and security?" And that is a very clear understanding of [how] the male in the ever drive to recognize independence - to protect independence - can become enlightened through compassion.

We may feel very strong within the self to identify - and the identification process can be something that allows us to include perhaps our family, or our vocation, or things that we feel strongly about. And it is an innate survival drive within the male aspect for identification and for the protection of that identification. But in the protection of that identification - when there is no compassion - there is War - and Worse.

When there is compassion, the identification becomes extended so that what you are holding [as] truth in your hearts is not just your positions - what you feel strongly about - but it eventually becomes God - the intense desire to unfold the infinite within your being.

So when we experience the drive - the survival, the identification - we can see how in our individual life it becomes so much what pushes us, what helps us to clarify - where - who we are, what is this about.

But that process of identification will leave us empty beings - empty men - if we are not allowing as well - compassion. For we can only hold small pieces of life when we are holding onto them. But we can hold all of life when we are opening to it.

So no matter how good your identification has become - "I am a good provider, I am a good student, I am a good person" - whatever your identification is, even though you have perfected it in making you feel very good in acknowledging to yourself, if that is all you do, then it is empty.

You must open the self up! Hm.

So the very same drive that wishes to protect its tribe can be extended into knowing the more universal tribe - and then that very same drive can drive us into unity - into Oneness.

In the identification in the role of Swami, I was forced to release all previous concepts of self. I became not identified as an
individual but I became identified as a devotee. Within the experience I found myself fighting - not for material possessions - not for a particular energy to stay the same in my life. I found myself fighting for something to fight for. I found myself wanting something to stand for. I found myself realizing the role of devotee to become that which I wishes to stand for and in recognizing this I became to understand why so much [of] mankind becomes misdirected - because the drive is to fight for something, the drive is to stand for something, the drive is to protect something.

And even when all of the somethings are taken - such as in the order where you are to release attachment - the instinct remains and so my teacher taught me more the teachings of compassion. And that is ultimately what quenches the fire and brings it Truth. So what I am speaking to you about is in your own lives what you have found to be qualities that separate you from the rest of life - because you are a good this or a good that - that very same drive when fueled with compassion can open the lotus of one's heart.

There are many ways to judge life. A fool is the one who takes the easy pathway. A fool is the one who says "that person this and this person that. That situation this and this situation that." They are foolish because they do not apply their intellect and they do not apply their heart. They are taking the easy pathway. They are trying to eliminate the possibilities of life by categorizing them, making life very small and very safe.

A wise person will say, "I do not know." A wise person will look into the eyes of life and find himself. And maybe it is more work because the truth is to find yourself in all life - [it] is to override the tendency that wants to separate, that wants to hold it different, that wants to make yourself better than. So the wiseman - [is] the one who looks into the lion's mouth and sees himself, [who] looks into the face of life and doesn't turn his back, [who] feels the strength of Unity - and not separation.

There are many ways in which men separate. There are many ways that in which they hold to values, ideas, concepts - justify them, validate them, support each other in the same ideas. And to what purpose? So we can feel justified and validated for being separate from the rest of life. So again - the application here and the teaching is to understand that some of the very basic and instinctual drives that can be utilized in such a way as to say "This is who I support and this is who is important and these are the good guys and these are the bad guys" - can be put in service, and [can] be stretched into greater
understanding and can be brought into the heart. Do you understand?
