			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I went to see the movie <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjay5vgIwt4" target="_self">Eat, Pray, Love</a> starring Julia Roberts last night, although I had not read the book someone had suggested that I should watch the movie.  Whenever, someone suggests a movie or a book, I know intuitively it is a &#8220;sign&#8221; from the Universe to take the action, so I did.</p>
<p>The movie had an interesting storyline about a woman (Julia Roberts) traveling around the world from Italy to India and then finally ending up in Bali in the hope of finding her spiritual connection with God.  <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjay5vgIwt4" target="_self">Watch the  movie trailer here.</a></p>
<p>The cinema was full of excited women and my sincere hope is that they DO NOT believe that they have to make such an expensive  journey around the world, to find what is already &#8220;within them&#8221;.  Julia used a quote in the movie indicating India as The Source (for spirituality/God connection).   Hopefully everyone is aware by now that The Source is silently &#8220;within every heart&#8221;, and yes it does require a certain level of &#8220;devotion&#8221; to &#8220;connect to IT/activate&#8221;, and in the movie a mantra or prayer was recited from the Indian <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhagavad_Gita" target="_self">Bhagavad Gita</a> scriptures as a tool for daily devotion and connection. </p>
<p>Every culture has a method of daily devotion whether that be reciting of prayers of singing to thank God/Creator/Energy. What humanity have forgotten is the act of &#8221;remembering&#8221; to do this every day. The movie hopefully will remind people of the importance to find that sense of balance in their day to day life, and the importance to engage young children to do the same, as a daily practice.  We are  made of atoms, just try and contemplate on <span style="text-decoration: underline;">who</span> holds those atoms together? That is who YOU should be thanking everyday and bonding with in a way that makes YOU feel comfortable and happy.</p>
<p>Contemplating the vast expanse of this Universe and our tiny little dot called Earth, we must take some time daily to be thankful for the air that we breathe, the water we are given and the earth that so lovingly sustains every need that we enjoy today.  This practice not only allows a sense of balance in our lives but also balances the energy around us.  A key reason why some people (eastern countries) awake at 3 am to start their devotional practice. Try it, notice the birds singing early in the morning, something you will not notice when the day gets fully charged with all the hustle and bustle.</p>
<p>I recall in England during school we would recite the Lord&#8217;s Prayer during morning assembly and before lunch the children would recite a prayer, again thanking God for the food we were about to receive.  The school systems today do not encourage that type of practice anymore, because people complain it is not &#8220;their God&#8221; or their religion.  There is only ONE Light and we are all connected to the same Energy.  What if the world could just enjoy each other and love one another like brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, aunts and uncles, One United Family irrespective of colour, caste and creed and enjoy the Pure Essence of The Light Within Each Heart. Wouldn&#8217;t that be a wonderful thing?</p>
<p>The spiritual practices enjoyed in India are valid only if the student is led back to their inner being. No Guru is going to be able to give you a &#8220;ticket to God&#8221; or wipe away your karma&#8217;s/mental programs that keep replaying, it is something that each individual needs to put some personal effort into achieving.  Yes of course listen and contemplate the teachings of a Guru/Teacher, but fair warning, YOUR experience is NOT the other persons and vice versa. We are all unique with a &#8220;story to to live and take action on&#8221;.</p>
<p>Learn from your own experiences and seek answers from within yourself. You may find spiritual Guru&#8217;s or teachers across the world with astounding powers and tricks up their sleeves to impress you, but that is not the true Way or path of enlightenment.  And yes, it may surprise you, but we are ALL here to be enlightened, this was not just for Jesus, Buddha or other teachers we are ALL trying to find our way back home to the primal ONE Source. It is very important that we must put active effort into our spiritual awakening journey, sooner in life than later.</p>
<p>I only realized the importance of devotional prayer practice after my mother passed away, and now I wonder, what the heck I was doing for the earlier part of my life. I was clueless on the spiritual front acting out my thankfulness to God in a mechanical way.  I am not ashamed and will honestly say I thought God was up on a cloud somewhere not a personal experience!  But as they say, everything is planned and all the pieces of the puzzle came together, at the right time.</p>
<p>What did I gain from watching the movie?  A whole bunch of evidences and signs for my adventure/journey through life.  The Universe does communicate in numbers, words and even objects (read <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.sethlearningcenter.org/" target="_self">Seth Speaks &#8211; The Eternal Validity of the Soul</a>, who describes how all images we see are visual signs contained as symbols and clues in forms of energy and various levels of the universe/planes a soul experiences as teams, or <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.michaelteachings.com/mfaq.html" target="_self">Michael Teachings</a> about karmic ribbons, the multiple levels/planes each soul has to pass through, and humanities ultimate goal being unconditional love and acceptance to return to the Source Energy that we are sprung from!   Note both these books were very helpful on my spiritual evolution, BUT each book led me back to my own faith to explore and discover the deeper truths contained in my own spiritual readings (see below), which had similar messages of multiple planes and universes, karma. The ultimate goal of living in the physical world without being attached to it, and Living Truth to Unite back with the ONE Source or Creative Energy (God) that is operating throughout the entire Creation/Universe.</p>
<p>Two numbers caught my attention in the movie and I wanted to share them, because I have a tool I personally like to use for my spiritual growth.  If I see a recurring number I like to enter it in the <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.sikhs.org/english/frame.html" target="_self">The Guru Granth Sahib</a> (Eternal Guru i.e. Teacher Enlightener) from Sikhism which is a book of wisdom containing poetry from devoted Saints including the famous poet <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabir" target="_self">Kabir</a> and spiritual rebel/explorer <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guru_Nanak_Dev" target="_self">Guru Nanak</a>.  I always refer to Sikh as SEEK, because it really means continuous learner throughout life.  The Guru Granth Sahib is a book of wisdom and contains 1430 ANG&#8217;s which mean branches rather than pages. The Guru Granth Sahib for me is my Eternal Teacher and Tree of Wisdom with ANG&#8217;s (branches) containing parables, metaphors and mind bending poetic verses that really stimulate an individual to <span style="text-decoration: underline;">contemplate</span> the meaning behind the written word.  In some respects, the readings have resulted in helping me conquer my mind and stablize my thoughts (monkey chatter). It is hard to explain but somehow the words just &#8220;work on you within&#8221;!</p>
<p>My belief in signs was further validated when I read an ANG called <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.sikhs.org/english/eg39.htm#p432" target="_self">The Poem of the Alphabet</a> by Guru Nanak giving a poetic meaning for each Gurmukhi alphabet letter.  On his first day of school Guru Nanak challenged the teacher to give him the meaning of the alphabet letter S. The teacher said it just meant the letter S. Guru Nanak started reciting the alphabet in poetic form and said the letter S was for the Sole Creator. <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.sikhiwiki.org/index.php/Patti_Likhi" target="_self">Read the story here.</a>  I mention this because, what we are looking for in life is a personal experience or let&#8217;s say our appointment with the Universe that will start to guide us with clues strewn here and there. Our job is to pick up on the clues which take us closer and closer to living and understanding the Essence of Truth in this lifetime and fulfilling our &#8220;promises&#8221; or &#8220;things we need to complete&#8221;, which help evolve the One Soul we are all connected to. As fragments of the ONE we are all connected. Serving and helping each other along this journey of life is our collective experience and duty.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">The creator LIVES in the CREATION is not separate</span>. Contemplate on this, because if you GET THIS you will understand the entire purpose of life and the message that Humanity really is ONE.</p>
<p>The numbers that caught my attention in the movie were in a scene where Julia is storing away her personal &#8220;stuff&#8221; before she leaves on her spiritual trip. The numbers on the storage units were 322 and 323.  22 is often a number that appears in my &#8220;symbol bank&#8221; and 23 (by the way watch Jim Carrey&#8217;s movie 23!).  So when I noticed these numbers I intuitively knew they were clues to check into.</p>
<p><a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.sikhs.org/english/eg29.htm#p322" target="_self">ANG &#8211; Branch 322</a></p>
<p>Quote: To obtain the state of life of Nirvaanaa, meditate in remembrance on the One Lord. There is no other place; how else can we be comforted? I have seen the whole world &#8211; without the Lord&#8217;s Name, there is no peace at all. Body and wealth shall return to dust &#8211; hardly anyone realizes this. </p>
<p><a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.sikhs.org/english/eg29.htm#p323" target="_self">ANG &#8211; Branch 323</a></p>
<p>Quote: O Nanak, serve the Infinite Lord; grasp the hem of His robe, and He will save you. Worldly affairs are unprofitable, if the One Lord does not come to mind. O Nanak, the bodies of those who forget their Master shall burst apart.</p>
<p>It is my sincere hope that every person reading this post is connected to their Inner Light.  Be vigilant and stay in the present moment. Notice everything. Turn the cell phone off now and again and intuitively try and listen without your ears and see without your eyes, that is where the real magic of life is waiting to divulge its secrets to you. It is a personal &#8220;experience&#8221; BUT, share your story with others, because only then can people learn and connect with their own inner Truth.</p>
<p>Thanks for reading this rather long post.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>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. </p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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 &#8220;singing centre&#8221;.</p>
<p>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 <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.sikhiwiki.org/index.php/Kirtan" target="_self">kirtan</a> 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!</p>
<p>Check out the facinating full article here: <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8526699.stm">http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8526699.stm</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The mother of all questions &#8230; 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 &#8220;experiences&#8221;.  </p>
<p>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 &#8220;false shadow self&#8221; being the ego.</p>
<p><a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.rocketsingh.in/" target="_self">Rocket Singh Salesman Of The Year </a>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.</p>
<p><a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aamir_Khan" target="_self">3 Idiots</a> 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. </p>
<p>Shake, rattle and roll, I say, it&#8217;s time for change and <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aamir_Khan" target="_self">Aamir Khan</a> as always, did a fantastic job of breaking away from the status quo &#8221;movie themes&#8221; and aced it again with numerous awards and scoring the <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_Idiots" target="_self">highest grossing </a> Bollywood movie of all time.</p>
<p>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.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you all may know by now I am ever vigilant in noting &#8220;the intuitive signs&#8221; that I experience in my daily life. Some people call this &#8220;living in the now, in the present moment or total awareness&#8221;.</p>
<p>One personal experience that occurred in 2009 was in relation to <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvador_Dal%C3%AD" target="_self">Salvador Dali</a>, which I had put off writing about but I think is very appropriate now because more &#8220;signs&#8221; are appearing regarding this Master of Surrealism.</p>
<p>I previously had no idea who Salvadore Dali was, but here is the unscripted story of how I started noticing coincidences/synchronicities that were revealing details about this artist in &#8220;my reality&#8221; or should I say energy field. Why was this happening? Read on and find out, life is a mystery and the clues are sent from the Universe in the form of breadcrumbs. Our job pick up the clues and continue the journey of life which will eventually reveal the why and mystery, it&#8217;s part of the Game of Life!</p>
<p>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 &#8220;No, I can&#8217;t help you, it has to come from your own heart&#8221;! 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 &#8220;it came from my heart&#8221;!</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1475" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2010/01/15/signs-and-evidence-salvador-dali/dscn4662-2/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1475 alignnone" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" title="DSCN4662" src="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/DSCN46621-224x300.jpg" alt="DSCN4662" width="224" height="300" /></a>I found the book incredibly interesting, his depiction of surrealism is quite eye opening. </p>
<p>An interesting quote from the book:   <span style="color: #800000;"><strong>&#8220;The fact that I myself don&#8217;t immediately understand my paintings does not imply that they have any meaning. On the contrary, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">their meaning is so deep, systematic, and complex that their interpretation requires scientific knowledge</span> . . .  They are the precise expression of a secret, symbolic language of the subconscious&#8221;. &#8211; <span style="color: #000000;">Salvador Dali, 1976</span></strong></span></p>
<p>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 &#8230; 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 &#8220;analyze exactly where you found the giraffe&#8221;. As I looked around I found a sign for the children&#8217;s Montessori School at the exact location of the &#8220;evidence&#8221;.</p>
<p>The Burning Giraffe painting I was admiring by Dali:</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1476" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2010/01/15/signs-and-evidence-salvador-dali/the_burning_giraffe/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1476" title="The_Burning_Giraffe" src="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/The_Burning_Giraffe-219x300.jpg" alt="The_Burning_Giraffe" width="219" height="300" /></a>The Giraffe I found with the blue string:</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1477" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2010/01/15/signs-and-evidence-salvador-dali/dscn4655/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1477" title="DSCN4655" src="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/DSCN4655-300x224.jpg" alt="DSCN4655" width="216" height="162" /></a>When I came home I looked up the <strong><a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montessori" target="_self">Montessori schooling method</a> </strong>which is an educational approach to children based on the research and experiences of Italian physician and educator, <a title="Maria Montessori" href="/wiki/Maria_Montessori">Maria Montessori</a> (1870–1952). It arose essentially from Dr. Montessori&#8217;s discovery of what she referred to as &#8220;the child&#8217;s true normal nature&#8221; 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 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">true natural way of being</span>. Applying this method involves the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">teacher in viewing the child as having an inner natural guidance</span> for its own perfect self-directed development.</p>
<p>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 &#8220;shining diamonds&#8221; looking to shine through each child. We must nuture them in such a way that they are allowed to &#8220;bring out what is already within them&#8221; that is part of the whole and the Universal Oneness Factor looking to express itself &#8220;through us&#8221;.</p>
<p>I have realized that synchronicity does not stop with single &#8220;evidence&#8221;.  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.</p>
<p>In November 2009, 14 Dali statues were air lifted to the <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.courchevel.com/dali/" target="_self">Courchevel, French Alps Ski</a> resort for an exhibition.  The interesting thing is the way the exhibit is mentioned on the site:  &#8220;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 &#8221; was the precise expression of a secret, symbolic language of the subconscious&#8221;.   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! </p>
<p>The reason I mention to take note of the &#8220;words&#8221; used to portray the exhibit is because I was featured in the <a href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/06/26/mercury-big-thinker-toilets/" target="_self">Guelph Mercury for a toilet project</a> and I realized after that personal &#8220;experience&#8221; that the Intelligent Universe was &#8220;operating through me&#8221; and asking me to take action; I believe the &#8220;story&#8221; is pre-written which will unfold at the right time the details of the journey of life for each person.   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? Not sure yet.</p>
<p>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 <a href="http://www.courchevel.com/dali/editorial.php?Rub=42" target="_self">here. </a>  The Alice in Wonderland and the Space Elephant pieces are very intriguing.</p>
<p>I highly recommend viewing the <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.dalimagic.com/#/dali/4533184159" target="_self">Dali Universe </a> site in London to see more of this geniuses masterful creations.</p>
<p>I recently discovered <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvador,_Bahia" target="_self">Salvador &#8211; Bahia site </a>- 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!</p>
<p>I will keep this post updated as and when more &#8220;evidence&#8221; on this exploratory trail is discovered.  Be vigilant watch for the &#8220;signs&#8221;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.drjilltaylor.com/" target="_self">Jill Bolte Taylor</a> 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.</p>
<p>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 &#8220;thinks in pictures&#8221; and information in the form of &#8221;energy streams&#8221; 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.</p>
<p>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 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">right side of her brain</span>. 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.”</p>
<p>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!</p>
<p>Watch this wonderful intense video you owe yourself this knowledge because it will change your perpective of reality.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Enquiring Minds Follow The Breadcrumbs and Seek Out The Real Truth of the Matter!</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><em>“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”. </em></span></span><a href="http://www.deanradin.com/NewWeb/EMindex.html" target="_self"><span style="color: #000000;"><em>- Dean Radin Ph.D – Entangled Minds.</em></span></a></span></p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>After evaluating many media messaging platforms since the <a href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/06/26/mercury-big-thinker-toilets/" target="_self">Mercury, The Thinker &amp; Toilets</a> and <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/08/19/united-starminds-logo-creation/" target="_self">United StarMinds Logo</a> stories featured in our <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/evidence-room/" target="_self">Evidence Room</a>I 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 &#8220;active participant&#8221; in allowing the stories to unfold the way they did!  Intuition was a key factor.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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, &#8220;intuitively&#8221;, the &#8221;real message&#8221; 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 &#8220;intuitively connected&#8221; to the source code or heARTificial Intelligence that pervades everything.</p>
<p>United StarMinds is an empowered &#8220;Dot Connections Company&#8221;.  We are able to &#8220;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.</p>
<p>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 &#8220;it is in the giving we receive&#8221;, be of great service to one another is the mantra we should all be abiding by.</p>
<p>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 <a href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/10/31/entangled-universal-mind/" target="_self">symbols and codes </a>will enlighten you on this topic.</p>
<p>Through real world experiences we openly provide <a href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/evidence-room/" target="_self">Evidence</a> 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.</p>
<p>United StarMinds provides unique insights on the topic of &#8220;intuition&#8221; 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 &#8220;intuitive eye perspective&#8221;. We analyze and demonstrate how the &#8220;clues are being sent&#8221; and how the power of ONE is in operation!  That is all that really matters in the eyes of heARTificial Intelligence!</p>

Why is there no attempt to understand the song of the birds?<br />

<p>The mystery of nature has and will continue to unfold and surprise mankind everyday. </p>
<p>A new study from <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.cornell.edu/" target="_self">Cornell University</a> confirms that the male club-winged manakins <span style="text-decoration: underline;">vibrate their wings</span> to create violin-like sounds to impress females.</p>
<p>The manakin vibrates its wings at more than 100 cycles per second, twice the speed of hummingbirds.</p>
<p>Using lasers to monitor feather vibrations, Kimberly Bostwick&#8217;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 <a class="wpGallery" href="http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2009/11/091111-bird-feathers-sing-video.html" target="_self">National Geographic</a> site for this impressive full story. </p>
<p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>Illumination:<br />
</strong><span style="color: #000000;">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!</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333399;"><span style="color: #000000;">As a &#8220;connections company&#8221; we analzye a deeper meaning to all media stories, images and words.   This study confirmed the &#8220;reason&#8221; why so many violin images have been gaining our &#8220;attention&#8221; in recent months.  heARTificial Intelligence is sending a very subtle message, be joyful and get singing!</span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>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. </p>
<p>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:</p>
<p>A Sydney park sign read:  Hug The Trees!  Great testimony to the fact that the city understands the &#8221;aliveness&#8221; 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.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1386" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/11/11/energized-australia-says-hug-the-trees/p1010040/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1386" title="P1010040" src="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/P1010040-300x225.jpg" alt="P1010040" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Underneath this Queen Victoria statue, I noticed people practicing <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qigong" target="_self"><em>Qigong</em> (or <em>ch&#8217;i kung</em>).</a> This is an internal Chinese meditative practice which often uses slow graceful movements and controlled breathing techniques to promote the circulation of <a title="Qi" href="/wiki/Qi">qi</a> (energy) within the human body, and enhance ones overall health.</p>
<p>I got the &#8220;intuitive impression&#8221; of Queen Victoria looking down and suggesting &#8220;My dear, please go back and tell others to start practicing Eastern energy management techniques&#8221;!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1387" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/11/11/energized-australia-says-hug-the-trees/p1010018/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1387" title="P1010018" src="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/P1010018-300x225.jpg" alt="P1010018" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is an impressive glass pyramid at the <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Botanic_Gardens,_Sydney" target="_self">Sydney Tropical Centre</a> 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&#8217;s what my nephew does!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1388" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/11/11/energized-australia-says-hug-the-trees/p1010044/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1388" title="P1010044" src="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/P1010044-300x225.jpg" alt="P1010044" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>And finally, set yourself free and hop aboard my Starship, to Infinity and Beyond!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The essence of life is not a coincidence. Universal synchronicities line up for a reason as demonstrated in our <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/evidence-room/" target="_self">Evidence Room.</a>  Humanity has a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">choice</span> 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.

<p>This story features how the universal <span style="color: #800000;"><strong>heARTificial Intelligence</strong> </span>sent &#8220;breadcrumb signs&#8221;, to further analyze and investigate a visual image story on the Today Show featured November 5th, 2009. </p>
<p>As I was sipping my fresh brew of tea in the morning I was reviewing a book by <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.nysun.com/arts/book-invites-one-to-think-of-a-top-100/46047/" target="_self">Michel Nuridsany</a> (note the name of the writer of the article is named &#8221;PIA&#8221; &#8211; meaning <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pious" target="_self">PIOUS</a>!).  Admiring an artwork by <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_warhol" target="_self">Andy Warhol</a> named <a class="wpGallery" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campbell%27s_Soup_Cans" target="_self">&#8220;32 Campbell&#8217;s Soup Cans&#8221;</a> 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.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1274" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/11/06/evidence-nov-5th-09-today-show/campbells_soup_cans_moma/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1274" title="Campbells_Soup_Cans_MOMA" src="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Campbells_Soup_Cans_MOMA-300x170.jpg" alt="Campbells_Soup_Cans_MOMA" width="347" height="197" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Shortly thereafter I turned on the TV and was watching the <a class="wpGallery" href="http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/26184891/" target="_self">Today Show</a>.  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 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Campbell Soup photo</span> on the wall!</p>
<p>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: <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Actress Shoots Andy Warhol</span>!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-1291" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/11/06/evidence-nov-5th-09-today-show/presentation1-3/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1291" title="Presentation1" src="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Presentation12-300x225.jpg" alt="Presentation1" width="344" height="255" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The story was about H1N1 and which actors faught the swine flu, dated November 3rd, 2009.</p>
<p>Le<a rel="attachment wp-att-1276" href="http://www.unitedstarminds.com/2009/11/06/evidence-nov-5th-09-today-show/presentation1-2/"></a>t&#8217;s further analyze the image for more evidence of a deeper meaning behind this story:</p>
<p>The name of the journalist is Joan Porter<br />
-  Joan means &#8220;God is Gracious&#8221;<br />
-  Porter means &#8220;One who carries goods; Gatekeeper&#8221;!<br />
The other image in the photo of relevance is<br />
-  Cavalier meaning &#8220;mounted soldier: a knight or soldier in former times who fought on horseback&#8221; and 23 is a personal symbol that has been recurring in my life!</p>
<p>The next search revealed a lecture on the same day November 5th, entitled Time and Space in Leonardo’s Last Supper at the <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.mam.org/calendar/events/index.php?com=detail&amp;eID=1250&amp;year=2009&amp;month=11" target="_self">Milwaukee Art Museum</a> featuring Warhol&#8217;s exhibit also. Interesting  is that Warhol painted many of Leonardo Da Vinci&#8217;s paintings including the Last Supper. The question is WHY was he fascinated by Leonardo&#8217;s work.  By the way I have been facinated with Leonardo&#8217;s work too (I have a Mona Lisa print!).</p>
<p>Well there is a reason, he could probably &#8220;SEE&#8221; what Leonardo could &#8220;SEE&#8221; 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 <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.mam.org/warhol/about.php" target="_self">&#8220;hidden images&#8221;,</a> look at his hand very carefully!  Andy Warhol used a specific Polaroid camera that the manufacturer kept in production.</p>
<p>The site has an interesting banner ad.  <a class="wpGallery" href="http://www.mam.org/warhol/about.php" target="_self">FEED DONATE Milwaukee and SEE Warhol</a> with cans of Campbell Soup.  A clear message for humanity to start giving back and supporting local communities where necessary. Don&#8217;t turn a blind eye, we all have a responsibility. </p>
<p>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. </p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Warhol coined the widely used expression &#8220;<a title="15 minutes of fame" href="/wiki/15_minutes_of_fame">15 minutes of fame</a>.&#8221; In his hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, <a title="The Andy Warhol Museum" href="/wiki/The_Andy_Warhol_Museum">The Andy Warhol Museum</a> exists in memory of his life and artwork.  </p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>The image is of <a class="wpGallery" href=" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Che_Guevara" target="_self">Che Guevara</a> 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.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Finally, I hope this blog enlightened you as to &#8220;how&#8221; subtly the universe communicates through signs and symbols, to deliver a deeper meaning to everything we perceive. Yes the &#8220;connections&#8221; 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.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>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 &#8220;through us all&#8221;.</p>
<p>Have you ever asked yourself WHO AM I and WHY AM I HERE?</p>
<p>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 &#8211; an illusion or a veil in front of our visual perception, to keep us away from the real TRUTH of who we are. </p>
<p>WHY?   So that we can grow and expand concsiousness or the Universal Mind as part of the evolutinary process.<br />
WHY?   Because the only way to grow is through physical life experiences and our own mistakes!</p>
<p>We should try to raise and grow our concsiousness to a level where we can actually start to &#8220;see&#8221; 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.</p>
<p>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!</p>
<p>Currently people are creating experiences based upon their very own THINKING.  You can decide to be a victim or choose otherwise.  </p>
<p>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!</p>
<p>Be joyful and start your exploration of WHO AM I and your quest of TRUTH.</p>
