Shhhh......
 

The artist is portraying the sadness and irony in the fact that this mindset is what the majority of people believe. It is a satirical piece meant to show the absurdity of this reality, and not meant to "spread hate" or any such thing.

Wasn't meant to spread hate. The artist was portraying the sadness and irony in the fact that that mindset is what the majority of people believe. I thought that was obvious, though I guess I should have explained it more. It is a satirical piece meant to show the absurdity of this reality.

Re: Shhhh......
 

What I want to know is why the pro-Israel folks feel the need to constantly put on a charade at universities to defend themselves? They must obviously know that the Israel government is full of **** so they always have to defend themselves.

This is yet another thread that does not belong on the Avalon Forum. It will be moved to off topic.

Re: Shhhh......
 

The most we need peace..and to pursue knowledge..human beings are complicate enough to amuze themselves various ways.
But also can behave very stupid...so never know how ones words will be understood.

Not all yet live in a 'good word', there's still lots of poverty, untreated diseases and unhealed suffering, people in their 40th who don't know how to read and write,
there are NASA labs in one corner of the world and pygmies in another.

It's a complicate world with unresolved issues between our forefathers, whose origin we already forgot.

It's not easy to fight your prejudice and what about mine ..:wub2:

When it's Quiet..we understand ourselves little More . So then after we meet each other again, there's more understanding..

Re: Shhhh......
 

And the sadness is why..because you remember the darkness and sadness of destruction, the catastrophes again are typed to our biological memory.

But the destruction does not have to happen, the world can continue in peace as it does so that peeople can go and keep solving their own issues.

Don't put any energy to the 'apocalyptic scenario' , use your strenght to keep the world going fair way..

Re: Shhhh......
 

Thank you for seeing this for what it is Humble.

I am well aware of the fact we have to solve all these issues and spread love and understanding, but we can't solve problems without first understanding what they are and why they are present.

The reality is that there are many groups, and in some cases entire nations that are taught to think a certain way, like Israeli Extremists. No matter what they do to people they see no wrong in it. Hell, even here in the U.S. we(not me) watch our soldiers on the TV killing innocent Iraqi's and say it's all in the interest of spreading freedom.

What's worse is that most often these extremists are driven by the idea that their religion tells them they have this right and should do these things, which is never the case. They are spoon fed the information in a way that doctrinates them into a life of hate and violence, when the truth of the matter is that the core message of all beliefs is unconditional and godlike love for everyone and every thing.

i agree.this cartoon is even more relevant this week. the fact that the u.s. and canada boycotted the conference in durban makes it more relvant.
ahmadajad's address SHOULD have been heard. it seems that if we don't hear it it can't be true. i am not antisemetic, but i am definitely anti zionist!

here's the text of his speech, which our leaders refused to listen to.
check it out. it contains truth, and nothing anti-semetic.

Re: Shhhh......
 

my solution, is listen to what the man has to say.open a dialogue with iran. keep an open mind. understand the the route to peace is not through war. have our leaders refuse to support the upcoming israeli attack of iran.

we must understand that the greatest danger we face is to start more wars for oil. israel must not be allowed to attack iran and they MUST allow palestine to survive.

btw....did you read ahmadinijad's speech?

The Middle East is a big cauldron of racism. On the one hand, everyone wants to exterminate the 'Other.' On the other, there's a lot of progress reversing the de-humanization, which occurs in collective racist head spaces.

Like Lorien, I don't think ignoring all the layers of facts is useful.

Re: Shhhh......
 

The cartoon is not hate oriented at all, or in any way anti-semitic. The purpose of posting it was to show how absurd it is that there are even people in the world that have this way of thinking. I made the incorrect assumption that most would be able to gather this without having to explain it.

As far as solutions? Before the corrupt governments and leaders of the world are gone, I fear there isn't much we can do.

However we can try to help these misguided souls find there way by showing them the truth. If you know someone of the Zionist, Islamic Extremist, or any other fanatical religious or government group, try to help them on the way to true spiritual awakening instead. Solutions start with bringing about change in one person, who can then do the same with someone else, and so on and so on.

I also think that major spiritual leaders of various faiths need to man(or woman) up and come out in swarms and denounce all the hatred and "killing in the name of" that is going on. Again, I think this starts with an individual follower who teaches others and forces their leaders to do this.

We can already see things such as this happening on small scales in religion and with military soldiers refusing orders. The goal is to get these people to see with their heart that these things are wrong and only detrimental to our race as a whole.

In order to solve a problem, the problem must first be clearly defined. We cannot trust the media to clearly define the problems, because they're controlled by the very forces that have created the problems to begin with. And what's actually going on, is pretty far removed from what they're telling us is going on. This cartoon is merely an example. Anybody remember the whole Georgia-Russia situation? What the media version was versus what was REALLY going on? Our opinions are molded to fit in with the plan of controlling a sheep-like population. Sorry, but I've got to call 'em as I see 'em, and anyone that thinks our government is looking out for us is sorely mistaken. Anyone who thinks their god is going to save them is sorely mistaken. So long as we look for the answers and the solutions as things to be obtained outside of ourselves, we'll continue to flop around in a paradigm that's been designed to instill division. Even here, where someone offers a simple cartoon that more accurately portrays the true nature of the problem - in an attempt to convey the truth, the desire to divide comes into the mix with words of admonishment for not offering the solution. C'mon people.

This idea that anybody is going to present themselves as the one who has the answer is part of the mindset that's keeping us enslaved. No ONE has the answer, until that ONE realizes that we are ALL ONE. The solution lies within the truth that we're all connected. The things that prevent us from realizing that connection and the solutions are multi-faceted and pervasive in our society. We have a programmed need to identify everything as right or wrong, good or evil, etc. Is it possible to reserve such judgments? Is it possible to reign in our massive egos? I'd like to think it is. In fact, I know it is. I don't find fault with someone trying to offer a different perspective. In fact, I applaud them.

If you already knew about the information, perspective, whatever - is it necessary to throw stones because you already knew it? What's the motivation behind wagging your finger at someone? To announce your alleged superiority? Are these ego-inflating responses, or is there a higher connection that's to be won by labeling? These questions don't necessarily require answers, by the way - just consideration. Even where people want to pat themselves on the back for being so well informed and "on the path of enlightenment", per se - the same processes that are used in organized religion and other organizations of control and manipulation are being used here. The solution is inside of you, not waiting to be found outside of you. If you want peace, BE PEACE. Please, stop berating those who share information because they're not offering the magic-bullet-solution. None of you are until you stop dividing and start uniting.

I wish you all peace.

Point taken

Re: Shhhh......
 

Recallone...I might like to add..when this thread started...there were no comments ..just a picture.....the comments were added later.....to inform ...great...to instigate..much different.
Again..be the solution...or be the problem....
When posting a picture of that nature....even though we here can get it....there must be a point ...otherwise..it the same as big media flashing us... :lol3: And we're suposed to just accept the picture without words.

Re: Shhhh......
 

Thank you for this. And you added so much to its meaning and purpose that I honestly didn't have the time to when I posted it.

Point taken. To be honest it was late at night, and I was a tad drunk. Came across the picture and just didn't have the time to type up what I wanted. I put it up assuming it would start some intellectual discussion and I could further my point in the morning. Much to my surprise and dismay I found my self being attacked for spreading hate :tears:

Re: Shhhh......
 

Re: Shhhh......
 

BTW...Lorien....We Know now that you did not intend to spread hate :wub2:
Some of us here are so effected by the change in energy...that to see a picture of that nature...without a point...is like being stabbed in the heart :mfr_omg: We all want world peace...and human rights are of the utmost importance....:thumb_yello:
As Recallone said..we need to be the change :thumb_yello:


Orion11 has a heart of GOLD....and it struck him with a vengence.....but knowing
his nature...I'm sure he still loves you :wub2:

I also agree with what is being said here. Thank you, you saved me a lot of typing.:lol3: It seems as if one is wanting to go beyond duality one would not be always condemning someone for being "negative" that's still polarity. I want to allow for others to take the path they need to get to their truth, not mine. The path may have to take one through what would be deemed "negative"by some. All spiritual leaders I have read about have gone through a dark night of the soul and testing, so why would I not allow for each spark of the divine encased in a different human form the same respect and love. Often times for myself it has been the "darkness" that awakens me to the "light."

Fear may be not enough contrast for some and perhaps at times needs to go anger :mad3:for one to realize and feel, ah. There have been times when an opportunity for growth presented itself and I did not get it. It presented itself in another form, I did not get it. Then it presented itself like a sledge hammer accompanied by some anger on my part, and I got it, yeah.:thumb_yello: So I allow other's ,out there who at times may learn the way of the sledge hammer. :hammer::shocked:

My respect and love to all, for seeking and sharing your paths:wub2::groupwave:

Re: Shhhh......
 

Very true about the energy of late, Brook. I've been feeling it, seeing it in others, and trying my best to figure it out. I think the 'trying to figure it out' part is what's messing me up. Trying to figure it out is in a sense embracing the psychological time aspect of it instead of just honoring the NOW of it. It is what it is NOW, so be here now and roll with it, baby! My new mantra for the day, courtesy of Steve Winwood - roll with it, baby.

When I first read this thread and the responses, the first thing that came to mind was the thread about some British officer biting the head of a chicken or something (this was months ago, btw). Some people were really bent out of shape about it, but ultimately - who is in control of the way you feel? If something outside of you is influencing you to feel a certain way, are you still in control of your vibration or are you prey to your programming? And going even further with it, WHO put that programmed response in place and for WHAT reason? When you really start scrutinizing these details, it's hard not to acknowledge how deep the programming goes and how easy we're controlled by it. AND on so many different levels! Peeling away the layers of the onion....

Love and light, y'all.

Well said Judy....now we are getting somewhere

I was thinking...wouldn't it be something if the whole world stopped what they were doing and just said...We are not going to take this anymore...ENOUGH....no more war.....no more hate...just a collective body of mankind standing in unity...against the rage of horror and atrocity....:thumb_yello:

We would be the change...and no one could stop us :thumb_yello:

Re: Shhhh......
 

Judykott, you touched on something that's HUGE. The polarity of it all.
You can't have good without evil. You can't have wrong without right. There are necessary opposites that illustrate the beauty (and tragedy) of this experience.

But you can't have a tug of war without the rope. Hmmmm.....
There's one to think about for a while. Could there be any more duality, polarity if we removed the contructs by which the ropes have been defined?

Re: Shhhh......
 

Huge indeed...ying....yang....:naughty:

Very ingenious.....constructs of the rope...hmmmm
You just made a good point :thumb_yello:
