"When I wake up, I expect things to be good. If they're not, then I try to set about trying to make them as good as I can 'cause I know I'm gonna have to live that day anyway. So why not try to make the most of it if you can? Some days, they pan out a little better than others, but you still gotta always just try." ~ Dolly Parton

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

#RamDass #humanism #JoanBaez #book #reading #quote @bookstodon @bookstodon@fedigroups.social

Ram Dass was no stranger to “us” versus “them.” In Be Here Now, he defined that polarization as “Hippies create police; police create hippies. If you’re in polarity, you’re creating polar opposites.” Ram Dass didn’t run from the contrasting forces of good and evil, yes and no, pleasure and pain, loss and gain. He didn’t complain on social media. He didn’t lecture against anything or anyone. He didn’t ask his followers to vote for a certain party or stick to a particular spiritual path. Instead, he dove into his guru’s instructions to love everyone. He put a framed picture of the person who most represented the polar opposite of his personal beliefs on his altar, right next to the images of his guru and other beings who point the way to oneness. And he would try to open his heart to love the “other” as a soul, not as the role they played in society.

If I develop my identity as a teacher, I need you as an audience or students in order to legitimize my definition of myself. So I’m constantly looking to you. I’m manipulating you to get you to give me back something I need to reassure me that I am who I think I am. The identification with my own separateness starts to make me use everybody around me to get that. You can feel that in your own lives again and again and again. If you feel yourself to be a competent mother, you need your children to be a certain way to legitimize your role as a mother. The minute you need somebody else to fulfill a model you have of yourself, you start to manipulate the other person. Don’t think the other person doesn’t feel manipulated. They do. And then you’re dealing with an interesting situation in which you are creating paranoia in other people who feel that they are being used and exploited.

Joan Baez found her commitment to nonviolence pushed to the limits in the ruins of Sarajevo. Everywhere she went, her strong silver voice was accompanied by the staccato sounds of shelling from the hills around the bloodied city. She went, she said, not with any answers but as a nonviolent response to what was happening there. She wanted to share her life and her music and be a witness to people who were undergoing such tremendous suffering. She told me, “The best thing I could have done was just to be there because they are, for the most part, no longer afraid of dying. They are afraid of being forgotten.” As Baez trudged through the muddy landing strip on her way out of Sarajevo, a young woman who attended the concert came up to her and said, “Thank you for coming. You have brought us life.” That’s all Joan needed to know. It had been the right thing to do. How do you bring life to somebody? How does that infusion take place between people? The ability for two people to fulfill their roles inherent in their relationship without being trapped by them so they meet behind their roles, they meet in being together. That is an infusion. What a play, what a dance! As the poet Rabindranath Tagore said, “I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.” You are ready to be an instrument of the relief of suffering.

When people are only in their minds, they’re very dry, brittle, cynical, frightened, tight people. When you first realize how caught you are in your own mind, very often you try to push it violently away, which is the renunciation path. It’s like this is all a crock and I’m going to the Himalayas. I’m going to go into a cave and stay away from the cities. But that is the newness of realizing there are other realities; you push against one to get to another one. After a while you realize that if you are pushing against anything, you may be getting high but you’re not getting free. Being free means you’re not standing anywhere or you are standing everywhere, meaning you are both the One and the many.

One of the problems has to do with the speed of light and the difficulties involved in trying to exceed it. You can't. Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws.

"The great social justice changes in our country have happened when people came together, organized, and took direct action. It is this right that sustains and nurtures our democracy today. The civil rights movement, the labor movement, the women's movement, and the equality movement for our LGBT brothers and sisters are all manifestations of these rights." ~ Dolores Huerta

"Joy is sometimes a blessing, but it is often a conquest. Our magic moment help us to change and sends us off in search of our dreams. Yes, we are going to suffer, we will have difficult times, and we will experience many disappointments — but all of this is transitory it leaves no permanent mark. And one day we will look back with pride and faith at the journey we have taken." ~ Paulo Coelho

JEW SHITHEAD Died in 2023 and lived on #Bird_Key, FLORIDA. HOME OF 🐍 #NAZIVILLE #TERRORISTS living amongst us..

DEPORT ALL NAZI JEWS AND SUPPORTING
Jerry Springer & #HOLLYWOOD #FAKE_ACTORS TODAY BACK TO SHITHOLE ✡️ 👹 #JERUSALEM, JUDAH

or if you have an ounce of decency left in your Miserable skins ✝️ #Repent_Now. 🧎 🧎‍♂️ 🧎‍♀️ before your final sentence is #HELL_FOR_ETERNITY! Choose Wisely.

JEW #ZIONIST_TRUTH FINALLY #EXPOSED!

JERUSALEM #JUDAH NOT #Israel Spent 80 Years #Hiding: The #Truth #About 1948??

#QUOTE: 🇵🇸 #Palestinians left voluntarily. Arab Leaders, it said told them to evacuate. That they could return after a #Arab_Victory.

📆 Today is #July 2, 2026 and USA jew Nazis started this war with #Iran within the last year. Its safe to say that there will never be a #arab_defeat bc this is an #extermination campaign (GENOCIDE) under the guise of an Arab Victory THE WILL NEVER COME. While Gilead, Pysher, Oil Companies, Bankers, illegal inside traders, #Lockheed_Martin, #Raytheon #WMD Manufacturers PROFIT hand over fist while these YOUTUBE WARMONGERS DRINK ITS KOOLAIDE? Not on our watch EVER #SHITHEADS!

Does Kicking the can down the road come to mind?? RECESSION >>DEPRESSION??? SCREAMS USA JEW OCCUPATION and LAND THEFT ON USA SOIL?!

There will never be an Arab Victory>> Just #Apartheid as a Business! #AAAB and truth.

The Israeli (AKA JUDAH) did not expel a population. It Fought a War.

But portions of the Israel's Archives became accessible and a #new_generation of Israeli #historians examined the #record...

THAT #STORY BEGAN TO #UNRAVEL..

#Military Files, #Intelligence Reports and #Cabinet minutes revealed #EXPULSIONS and #MASSACRES carried out by #ZIONIST #FORCES.. and #NO_EVIDENCE of any #Arab order instructing #CIVILIANS to #leave.

As the #voluntary_flight #narrative_collapsed (ERASURE)?? A narrower #defense #replaced_it.

YES, #Civilians were #expelled. Yes #JEW_ATROCITIES occurred. But these were #isolated_incidents, #unauthorized excesses #committed in the #Fog_of_War.

Jerry Springer, Joe Rogan, YOUTUBE, USA TICTOK, TWITTER, bigtech etc, #CIA #MKULTRA #PSYOP warfare against 🇺🇸 We The People to divide and conquer by snake oil 🐍 ACTORS promoting #degeneracy (FearMongering!)

= Jerry Springer, Joe Rogan, YOUTUBE, USA TICTOK, TWITTER, bigtech etc, #CIA #MKULTRA

That argument #endured because something crucial was missing. #Documentation showing whether the #EXPULSIONS and #ATROCITIES were a BREAKDOWN of the SYSTEM or the system #working as #designed??

Conclusion:

WEBTRAFFICBROKERS WAS ABLE TO SURPASS ALL SO CALLED BIG TECH WITH JUST 3 WORDS TO EXPLAIN IT.

#FLAWED_CORE_SOFTWARE_LOGIC last 2 decades recognized before the LAUNCH OF GOOGLE.. by JEW NAZI #RETARDS! = #NASA = #NAZI_VILLE #COVERUP!

Which pretty much sums up the success rate of #ZIONISM?? = #ZERO!

= #UNSUSTAINABLE BY #DESIGN IF DESIGNED by a #JEW NAZI #SATANIST FROM #JUDAH, EUROPE, FRANCE OR GERMANY

#King_David took back Israel in the David and Goliath War. This is not our first rodeo but its yours.. REMEMBER??

The JEWS have been stealing YOUR USA FARM LAND for the last 2000 years and the REASON WHY THEY have been #EXCOMMUNICATED FROM EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!

As Israel’s secret archives slowly crack open, a darker reality of 1948 emerges: a deliberate system of #state_sanctioned_terror, #expulsions, and #massacres. From the #bombshell 2026 #release of the #Shmuel_Lahis trial #transcripts to #confidential #military orders discovered in a #Tel_Aviv #dumpster, the #evidence now points to a #calculated_strategy (AKA #PRE_MEDITATED_MURDER in the 1ST #DEGREE) of #annihilation.

We #examine the #documents Israel spent 80 #veteran #years #hiding and the " #Malmab " unit tasked with keeping the #truth_buried.

Everyone complains about politicians. Everyone says they suck. But where do people think these politicians come from? They don't fall out of the sky; they don't pass through a membrane from a separate reality. They come from American homes, American families, American schools, American churches, and American businesses. And they're elected by American voters. This is what our system produces, folks. This is the best we can do.
