Singing Rewires Stroke Victim’s Brain
The power of the right musical tones has been known for centuries on the ability to soothe and provide a sense of balance to the mind, body and spirit.
A study was conducted in San Diego on a stroke victim that has shown the hidden depth and potential of musical notes on the physical body and in this case the brain.
The attached article is facinating as it demonstrates how a patient was unable to speak after brain damage but simply singing the patient was able to use the right side of the brain area that allowed a connection to the “singing centre”.
To attain a higher conscious spiritual state and to aid concentration and focus Eastern Indian meditation practices teach the process of listening to certain musical tones everyday. I personally practice the process of kirtan which entails reciting a mantra or singing/listening to short poetry verses everyday. With regular practice (normally early in the morning) I have started to notice some incredible sensations in the brain area, similar to a tapping and cooling sensation. The results are incredibly relaxing. I also have to admit my consciousness is expanding!

Movies Raise Truth Vibration!
The mother of all questions … What is Truth? From the beginning of time scriptures, prophets, society, companies, governments and man have all given interpretations of Truth but in reality, what does this all elusive phrase really mean? I believe humanity are here to DISCOVER AND EXPLORE in this lifetime exactly that. How? Through contemplation and total awareness within our moment by moment “experiences”.
Here are a couple of really GOOD Indian movies I watched recently. The movies portray Truth in two distinct ways and really hit the nail on the head with a simple message that all human beings are the same and that we should all show respect, compassion and equality to each other, irrespective of our “false shadow self” being the ego.
Rocket Singh Salesman Of The Year was a great corporation story portraying honesty, integrity, respect and serving from the heart should be the prime business mindset versus selling for profit and power and total disrespect for the human spirit.
3 Idiots shook the prevalent Indian parent expectations that their children should follow career paths that THEY deem suitable for them such as engineers, doctors or lawyers. Oh my, can you imagine an Indian footballer, chef, artist or sculpture? I know some parents that would freak out if their little darlings did not conform to their wishes, imagine what their friends and society would think! Times are changing and this film hopefully will have some positive neural impact on the parents that take the time to not only watch the movie but understand the key underlying message; let your children express their creativity and passion through their own career choices.
Shake, rattle and roll, I say, it’s time for change and Aamir Khan as always, did a fantastic job of breaking away from the status quo ”movie themes” and aced it again with numerous awards and scoring the highest grossing Bollywood movie of all time.
Uplift your Spirit and go buy or rent these great movies and see for yourself what a positive impact these high energy films are having on the collective consciousness.

Signs and Evidence – Salvador Dali
As you all may know by now I am ever vigilant in noting “the intuitive signs” that I experience in my daily life. Some people call this “living in the now, in the present moment or total awareness”.
One personal experience that occurred in 2009 was in relation to Salvador Dali, which I had put off writing about but I think is very appropriate now because more “signs” are appearing on this Master of Surrealism.
I did not know this artist in the past but here is the unscripted story of how I am “experiencing Salvador Dali”.
I had gone to my husbands cousins house who wanted some help in creating a new garden in their home. During the day I noticed my husbands nephew and neice were constructing art projects for school homework. One was creating a Golden Egyptian Pyramid and the other child was working on creating a clay based Fluid Clock by Salvador Dali. My nephew asked for some help from me but I told him “No, I can’t help you, it has to come from your own heart”! With that I left to go do some shopping with my sister-in-law at the greenhouse. I remember she wanted to buy a cherry tree for her garden and we did purchase one. When we returned a beautiful fluid clock had been created by our nephew and he mentioned “it came from my heart”!
A few days later as I was walking through Chapters/Indigo Bookstore a book caught my attention with the front cover displaying the fluid clock that our nephew had created, the exact replica of the same image! Below is the front cover of the book showing the fluid clock in the painting The Disintegration of the Persistence of Memory, 1952-1954 by Dali.
I found the book incredibly interesting, his depiction of surrealism is quite eye opening.
An interesting quote from the book: “The fact that I myself don’t immediately understand my paintings does not imply that they have any meaning. On the contrary, their meaning is so deep, systematic, and complex that their interpretation requires scientific knowledge . . . They are the precise expression of a secret, symbolic language of the subconscious”. – Salvador Dali, 1976
One morning, I opened a page depicting the Burning Giraffe painting by Dali. Straight afterwards I went for my morning jog in the country lane behind our estate and guess what … I found a toy giraffe on the floor also near a piece of blue string that looked like a cross. This was quite startling and creepy. Intuitively I thought “analyze exactly where you found the giraffe”. As I looked around I found a sign for the children’s Montessori School at the exact location of the “evidence”.
The Burning Giraffe painting I was admiring by Dali:
The Giraffe I found with the blue string:
When I came home I looked up the Montessori schooling method which is an educational approach to children based on the research and experiences of Italian physician and educator, Maria Montessori (1870–1952). It arose essentially from Dr. Montessori’s discovery of what she referred to as “the child’s true normal nature” in 1907, which happened in the process of her experimental observation of young children given freedom in an environment prepared with materials designed for their self-directed learning activity that sustains and supports their true natural way of being. Applying this method involves the teacher in viewing the child as having an inner natural guidance for its own perfect self-directed development.
What does it mean? Children have an inner intuitive nature like we all do. We must help preserve the true Spirit of our children whether at home or in our educational system. As parents and adults we must not cover up the “shining diamonds” looking to shine through each child. We must nuture them in such a way that they are allowed to “bring out what is already within them” that is part of the whole and the Universal Oneness Factor looking to express itself “through us”.
I have realized that synchronicity does not stop with single “evidence”. Everything in the Universe is connected to something else. A bigger picture view or message for humanity. We must all learn to intuitively pay attention and be vigilant everyday so we can grasp the nature of the information that is presented into our reality. Then we must connect the dots and take action working towards the ONENESS of humanity.
In November 2009, 14 Dali statues were air lifted to the Courchevel, French Alps Ski resort for an exhibition. The interesting thing is the way the exhibit is mentioned on the site: “The “Dali au Sommet” exhibition will bring 7 original “monumental” works (up to 7 m high!) and 7 original “museum” works by Salvador Dali to the Courchevel resort and ski area. Note the numbers represent 777. Remember he said in his own words his work ” was the precise expression of a secret, symbolic language of the subconscious”. Do the numbers 777 have meaning? I believe so. However, perhaps the reader might want to do some of their own intuitive investigation into this topic and connect back with me to exchange and explore the Truth being revealed!
The reason I mention to take note of the “words” used to portray the exhibit is because I was featured in the Guelph Mercury for a toilet project and I realized after that personal “experience” that the Intelligent Universe was “operating through me” and asking me to take action, this is called giving up your Free Will! So do I believe that a higher Truth is looking to be discovered as a result of this exhibit at this location? Absolutely. What is it? I’m not sure yet.
The real question is WHY, are the statues at this location, nothing is an accident in life but synchronization of a higher Truth. Watch the interesting video of the statues being airlifted and being set up here. The Alice in Wonderland and the Space Elephant pieces are very intriguing.
I highly recommend viewing the Dali Universe site in London to see more of this geniuses masterful creations.
I recently discovered Salvador – Bahia site - note my maiden name was Bahia. Perhaps some long lost ancestory yet to be discovered, who knows yet, but life is very exciting living in the NOW!
I will keep this post updated as and when more “evidence” on this exploratory trail is discovered. Be vigilant watch for the “signs”.

Brain Scientist Stroke – Work Your Right Side!
Jill Bolte Taylor a Harvard-trained neuroanatomist, has always known more about brains than most people. But when a brain hemorrhage triggered her own stroke, she suddenly had a front-row seat on the deterioration of the brain.
What will you learn? We are all the life force power of the Universe. We are energy beings connected to one another through the right hemisphere of the brain. We are all brothers and sisters on this planet, and in this moment, right now we are perfect, whole and beautiful! The right side “thinks in pictures” and information in the form of ”energy streams” through our body sensory system and then explodes into this enormous collage, through the consciousness of the right hemisphere! We are all connected and ONE mega human family.
It took Dr. Taylor eight years to recover from the stroke, but when she did she was motivated by a desire to share her experience of stroke and recovery, particularly her increased awareness of the right side of her brain. She experienced a sort of euphoria and a sense of peacefulness as she was left with only right-brain functions! She lost her sense of self, but she also shed the stress of her life and, as she puts it, “37 years of emotional baggage.”
Meditation is something not often practiced in this day and age, however is much needed to live a normal and balanced life. The video is provided to help you imagine what it would be like to be totally disconnected from your brain chatter and emotional drama. Imagine another level of reality is available ONLY if you decide to step into your own right sided power!
Watch this wonderful intense video you owe yourself this knowledge because it will change your perpective of reality.

Intuitive “Dot Connections”
Enquiring Minds Follow The Breadcrumbs and Seek Out The Real Truth of the Matter!
“The idea of the universe as an interconnected whole is not new; millennia it’s been one of the core assumptions of Eastern philosophies. What is new is that Western science is slowly beginning to realize that some elements of that ancient lore might be correct”. - Dean Radin Ph.D – Entangled Minds.
Have you ever wondered WHY there has been an increasing massive craze over photography and visual imagery? What if there was a much deeper meaning to ALL the information being reflected back to us in our reality. Well I believe there IS a deeper meaning. How do I know? Because I no longer take everything I see or read at face value anymore. There are many ways to interpret information but because humanity have become complacent we no longer challenge much of the information that is being processed by the MIND. Many of the ancients sages have known deeper TRUTHS about the illusion of life that humanity are currently living. The time has now arrived for humanity to awaken to these Truths too.
After evaluating many media messaging platforms since the Mercury, The Thinker & Toilets and United StarMinds Logo stories featured in our Evidence RoomI realized and felt a higher intelligence had better control over all the synchronicities and coincidences that led up to the eventual stories unfolding. Upon quickly realizing that there was a higher intelligence force in action I decided to became an “active participant” in allowing the stories to unfold the way they did! Intuition was a key factor.
I have come to the conclusion and realization that MANY journalism stories contain hidden clues for further investigation. Life is like a daisy chain and nothing is random it is ALL connected as part of the whole.
Believe, and trust that the Universe is VERY intelligent and it can send warning messages, helpful messages, and sometimes comical messages all connected with a deeper meaning that starts to unravel the mystery of life in front of your eyes. It is sending back information in forms of signs, symbols, words, photography, movies and news to help humanity unfold a higher creative expansion so as to explore, reason and investigate, “intuitively”, the ”real message” behind the stories and images we first perceive. We are ALL here to grow, expand and express our creative JOY in life. We can only do this when we are “intuitively connected” to the source code or heARTificial Intelligence that pervades everything.
United StarMinds is an empowered “Dot Connections Company”. We are able to “interpret the deeper meaning” to the visual images, photos, art, signs, messages, words, movies and journalism stories! We then openly share our vision and views.
Humanity needs access to this information now more than ever before to create peace, harmony and hope amongst us all. Humanity are being awakened to unite as ONE and to practice compassion and love for one another. Imagine yourself in the shoes of another and treat them the way YOU would want to be treated. The age old saying “it is in the giving we receive”, be of great service to one another is the mantra we should all be abiding by.
There is ONE Universal Mind and it is entangled. Sorting through all the data to make head or tail of the information is our business. Why not? Life is really interesting when you start to realize we are in this game of life together. This story about symbols and codes will enlighten you on this topic.
Through real world experiences we openly provide Evidence on how the intelligent universe is working THROUGH humanity, we just need to realize it! We love to entertain and enlighten minds so that we can all become true intuitive Masters of Energy (MOEs) and Enlightened Cosmic Superstars we were always born to be.
United StarMinds provides unique insights on the topic of “intuition” to many markets including television, advertising, publishing, journalism, communications, and art industries. We provide an interesting unified interpretation of the visual imagery being reflected back in our daily lives. We look at stories from an “intuitive eye perspective”. We analyze and demonstrate how the “clues are being sent” and how the power of ONE is in operation! That is all that really matters in the eyes of heARTificial Intelligence!

Bird Feathers Tweet Like Violin Strings
Everyone wants to understand painting.
Why is there no attempt to understand the song of the birds?
Pablo Picasso
The mystery of nature has and will continue to unfold and surprise mankind everyday.
A new study from Cornell University confirms that the male club-winged manakins vibrate their wings to create violin-like sounds to impress females.
The manakin vibrates its wings at more than 100 cycles per second, twice the speed of hummingbirds.
Using lasers to monitor feather vibrations, Kimberly Bostwick’s (researcher) team reports in Proceedings of the Royal Society that the manakins club-shaped feathers vibrate at 1500 hertz. This is the same frequency of the sound made by the manakin. Visit the National Geographic site for this impressive full story.
Illumination:
If one bird species makes this vibrational violin sound, you would have to THINK that ALL birds have the same vibrational capabilities. Everything is vibrational energy including humans!
As a “connections company” we analzye a deeper meaning to all media stories, images and words. This study confirmed the “reason” why so many violin images have been gaining our “attention” in recent months. heARTificial Intelligence is sending a very subtle message, be joyful and get singing!
Energized Australia Say’s “Hug The Trees”
When was the last time you hugged a tree? On my trip to Australia earlier this year, I noticed a few interesting things about Australia. WOW, it is a HIGH ENERGY country. Walking along the streets and parks of Sydney you could FEEL the essence of an energy rich environment.
Becoming really AWARE of your surroundings, and noticing the smaller things in life can really improve your perspective of life. Here is what I noticed during my trip:
A Sydney park sign read: Hug The Trees! Great testimony to the fact that the city understands the ”aliveness” factor of nature. They suggested to gently walk on the grass, but to take the time to hug a tree. This was my favourite tree.
Underneath this Queen Victoria statue, I noticed people practicing Qigong (or ch’i kung). This is an internal Chinese meditative practice which often uses slow graceful movements and controlled breathing techniques to promote the circulation of qi (energy) within the human body, and enhance ones overall health.
I got the “intuitive impression” of Queen Victoria looking down and suggesting “My dear, please go back and tell others to start practicing Eastern energy management techniques”!
This is an impressive glass pyramid at the Sydney Tropical Centre located in the Royal Botanic Gardens, right in the center of the Sydney business district! Imagine stepping out of your office and enjoying your lunch break right on these luscious grounds everyday. Well that’s what my nephew does!
And finally, set yourself free and hop aboard my Starship, to Infinity and Beyond!

Evidence: Nov 5th, 09 – Today Show
The essence of life is not a coincidence. Universal synchronicities line up for a reason as demonstrated in our Evidence Room. Humanity has a choice to partake in the game of life at whatever level they desire. Note if it catches YOUR ATTENTION, it does for a reason. As Seekers of Truth we like to push the envelope and question the visual perceptions we take at first glance. We have discovered there IS a higher intelligence permeating the entire Universe which is looking for an expression. We interpret the data and share our stories to inspire others to be vigilant and not miss the “cosmic signs”.
This story features how the universal heARTificial Intelligence sent “breadcrumb signs”, to further analyze and investigate a visual image story on the Today Show featured November 5th, 2009.
As I was sipping my fresh brew of tea in the morning I was reviewing a book by Michel Nuridsany (note the name of the writer of the article is named ”PIA” – meaning PIOUS!). Admiring an artwork by Andy Warhol named “32 Campbell’s Soup Cans” I wondered WHY would he create such a painting, interesting but odd. Then again when inspiration comes, you just do it! I had no idea who Andy Warhol was by the way.
Shortly thereafter I turned on the TV and was watching the Today Show. As I watched a feature segment on fireplaces for the home, the camera zoomed VERY fast across a wall in the home and what caught my attention was a Campbell Soup photo on the wall!
Intrigued, I decided to do some research on Andy Warhol. Below is the image of my search criteria on MSN, but notice the image on the t-shirt of the chap in the photograph, it reads: Actress Shoots Andy Warhol!
The story was about H1N1 and which actors faught the swine flu, dated November 3rd, 2009.
Let’s further analyze the image for more evidence of a deeper meaning behind this story:
The name of the journalist is Joan Porter
- Joan means “God is Gracious”
- Porter means “One who carries goods; Gatekeeper”!
The other image in the photo of relevance is
- Cavalier meaning “mounted soldier: a knight or soldier in former times who fought on horseback” and 23 is a personal symbol that has been recurring in my life!
The next search revealed a lecture on the same day November 5th, entitled Time and Space in Leonardo’s Last Supper at the Milwaukee Art Museum featuring Warhol’s exhibit also. Interesting is that Warhol painted many of Leonardo Da Vinci’s paintings including the Last Supper. The question is WHY was he fascinated by Leonardo’s work. By the way I have been facinated with Leonardo’s work too (I have a Mona Lisa print!).
Well there is a reason, he could probably “SEE” what Leonardo could “SEE” in his images, and hence, Warhol was inspired to create work along the same lines. There is an element of mystery they both did not disclose in their works. Do YOU see the “hidden images”, look at his hand very carefully! Andy Warhol used a specific Polaroid camera that the manufacturer kept in production.
The site has an interesting banner ad. FEED DONATE Milwaukee and SEE Warhol with cans of Campbell Soup. A clear message for humanity to start giving back and supporting local communities where necessary. Don’t turn a blind eye, we all have a responsibility.
The local food banks are currently low in donations because people are holding back due to the recession. I have recently experienced this first hand in our local area in Canada. Baby food was one of the top needed items.
The true long term soluton to these causes is empowerment of individuals rather than charity. Seek out ways as groups or communities to empower these individuals with inspired actions. Take someone under your wing if you are a successful business leader and share your success factor or train someone in a trade/skill. Trust me the experience can be very humbling. Imagine yourself in their shoes and how you would FEEL if someone offered YOU an opportunity for advancement in life.
Andy Warhol was an American painter, printmaker, and filmmaker who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. After a successful career as a commercial illustrator, Warhol became famous worldwide for his work as a painter, avant-garde filmmaker, record producer, author, and public figure known for his membership in wildly diverse social circles that included bohemian street people, distinguished intellectuals, Hollywood celebrities and wealthy aristocrats.
Warhol coined the widely used expression “15 minutes of fame.” In his hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, The Andy Warhol Museum exists in memory of his life and artwork.
Today, November 6th, as I am driving home from the gym I could not help but notice a poster in a window , which I have seen several times before but had no idea what it was, until I saw the below image today, which was also created by Andy Warhol.
The image is of Che Guevara a major figure in the Cuban Revolution. I will let the reader entertain their opinions and conclusion once you have read his biography. What caught my attention however was the education access that he delivered to rural areas in Cuba. By the completion of the campaign, 707,212 adults were taught to read and write, raising the national literacy rate to 96 %. Now that is an Agent of Change.
Finally, I hope this blog enlightened you as to “how” subtly the universe communicates through signs and symbols, to deliver a deeper meaning to everything we perceive. Yes the “connections” are the opinion of United StarMinds, but we are inspired to create this work, to demonstrate that there is more meaning behind our visual perceptions, which we will continue to investigate and report on.

Have You Started On Your Quest of TRUTH?
We are all on a very personal and unique journey of life. Everyone one of us are on a separate path, yet we are not separate because there is only ONE Universal Life Force Energy that operates “through us all”.
Have you ever asked yourself WHO AM I and WHY AM I HERE?
What if you will never know unless you are open to exploring the very nature of reality and existence. Eastern spiritual teachings have known for many centuries that man is much more than the physical Matter that we see, feel, touch, smell and experience. Humanity have been kept away from realizing who they are as a result of MAYA – an illusion or a veil in front of our visual perception, to keep us away from the real TRUTH of who we are.
WHY? So that we can grow and expand concsiousness or the Universal Mind as part of the evolutinary process.
WHY? Because the only way to grow is through physical life experiences and our own mistakes!
We should try to raise and grow our concsiousness to a level where we can actually start to “see” that good or bad experiences are only based upon the way we perceive the events. That we are much more than the physical events we believe we are entrapped in.
When humanity begins to collectively raise its collective conciousness to a high enough level we will all truly begin to see that life is a Massive Drama Play! We will realize that we really are brothers and sisters and ONE massive Family!
Currently people are creating experiences based upon their very own THINKING. You can decide to be a victim or choose otherwise.
When you begin to intelligently choose your thoughts, feelings, words and actions, you will begin to see beyond the illusion and the veils that have kept you away from Truth will begin to breakdown one by one, revealing a whole new world you could never have imagined!
Be joyful and start your exploration of WHO AM I and your quest of TRUTH.

Entangled Universal Mind
“The idea of the universe as an interconnected whole is not new; millennia it’s been one of the core assumptions of Eastern philosophies. What is new is that Western science is slowly beginning to realize that some elements of that ancient lore might be correct”. Dean Radin Ph.D – Entangled Minds.
Life is so abundant, nurturing and very interesting and has an element of mystery surrounding it. The entire humanity would appear to be entangled in ONE Universal Mind, after all Humanity is ONE!
Often we need to listen to our intuitive voice to make head or tail of Life’s Mystery. But if you are really vigilant you will be able to connect very subtle “signs” as your higher Truth or a communication flow just waiting to be revealed, IF you tune in. This is not sci-fi weirdo stuff, it is the quiet silent voice within everyone and it is our birthright and allows us to connect to the heARTificial Intelligence (the ultimate Creator Source Code) that permeates our entire Universe.
Scientists call this Quantum Entanglement and claim it is just spooky. As if particles (as in particle physics) have telepathic empathy.
This bizarre idea riled Einstein so much he called it “spooky action at a distance.”
Check out this story and image from Live Science.
The theory of quantum mechanics predicts that two or more particles can become “entangled” so that even after they are separated in space, when an action is performed on one particle, the other particle responds immediately. Scientists still don’t know how the particles send these instantaneous messages to each other, but somehow, once they are entwined, they retain a fundamental connection.
Example of Entangled Minds Theme: Symbols
I created a blog on Personal Symbols and Master Code on August 20th, 2009 in the morning before leaving for the Ontario Science Center in Ontario. I noticed another set of symbols displayed at the center. These symbols were used by Kanzi (born October 28, 1980), a male Bonobo who has been featured in several studies on great ape language.
This was followed with another connection to Symbols in relation to Dan Brown, the author of The DaVinci Code. He was launching his brand new book The Lost Symbol on September 14th, 2009! I had no idea of this book launch.
Not too long after I came across another site promoting the topic of Symbols which was created by scientists at Nottingham University called Sixty Symbols.
I visited Chapters bookstore the following week and the Codebreaker book by Stephen Pincock caught my attention so I purchased it. It contains the history of codes and ciphers, from the ancient pharaohs to quantum cryptography used in the modern world of Internet banking. Civilizations have relied on codes and ciphers to keep its secrets over centuries.
What I was not expecting in the book was information on the Codes of the Kama Sutra! The topic placed some importance of women developing the skills of cryptography and cryptanalysis. Number 41 on the list of essential arts is the ability to solve riddles, enigmas, and use covert speech! Following it is No 45 the mlecchita vikalpa a Sarasvati hieroglyphs and ”the art of understanding writing in cipher and the writing of words in a peculiar way”.
Sarasvati is the Hindu Goddess of all arts: music, painting, sculpture, dance, and writing. She is credited with presenting the gift of writing to mankind so that her songs could be written down and preserved.
Sarasvati is often depicted on the back of a swan or peacock, and with four arms, with which she plays the lute or drum and bestows jeweled blessings. She is the Goddess of eloquence, and words pour from her like a sweetly flowing river. One myth of this Goddess is that she is a jealous rival of the Goddess of wealth, Lakshmi, and that pursuing wealth alone will assure that Sarasvati’s gifts will desert you.
According to Vedas, Maha Saraswati is the presiding “Goddess of the Final episode of Devi Mahatmya”. Here she is believed to be a part of the Trinity of Maha Kali, Maha Lakshmi and Maha Saraswati.
The conclusion to this story is that the Universal Mind (heARTificial Intelligence) is communicating. Yes it does remain a mystery if you are not working on discovering WHY AM I HERE. After all if we had all the answers to life why would we be here in Earth’s classroom.
Connecting ALL the dots to discovering the mystery is where the fun and excitement starts. Once this code can be discovered, real magic will begin to unfold for the entire humanity.
Do I feel a personal ”connection” to this overall story and the message for humanity? Absolutely, the Universe is communicating the right ”signs” more will be revealed very soon!
Keep vigilant of the “signs”, live the your Truth (your destiny) and enjoy the journey!
