I heard about Occupy Wall Street through Facebook. Then, Occupy LA sprung up, and I was there from day one until the raid, aside from a week at OWS and a road trip up the Cali Coast to Occupy Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz, San Francisco, Oakland and Berkley on my way to the Goddess Festival in my home town Mendocino. This is humanity waking up. This is a global movement, and I feel very honored and privileged to be a part of it. My work has been to assist in the evolution of consciousness, so I’m dealing with individual ascension and collective ascension now that we have reached critical mass. I believe that’s what the Occupy Movement actually represents. Last year, when the Occupy Wall Street encampment was established, how long did it take for the rest of the country and nearly every city to establish their own encampment? Bam! It just happened almost over night. That to me says that we have reached critical mass, which basically means that enough of us have already woken up, so that now everyone will wake up. I believe it’s inevitable now. That’s why I’m already celebrating.

The movement is so important because almost everything is at stake -- the environment, the future of civilization on earth. This is what it’s taken to get everybody on the same page. It’s very crucial that we actually do this now. What we are actually doing is ushering in the new paradigm. I consider myself an ambassador of the new paradigm. The new paradigm is a golden age of enlightenment. I think we are going to see a lot of things change quickly. The Occupy Movement is a global movement. We are uniting as one human family. Let’s all agree to stop killing each other. Let’s not buy into the divisive thinking of the old paradigm of us against them. So much of what we see in the world today is managed through mind control. It’s so subtle because it’s through the media and motion pictures, and it’s been perpetuating this whole mindset of us against them, of being a hero and being a winner rather than a loser. In order to have winners, we must have losers. That whole survival of the fittest, competition over cooperation, that’s old paradigm. Now what we’re seeing is the new paradigm arriving and the new mindset of all inclusiveness. There is no us and them. There’s only us.

I’m not just hoping. There are those of us who are actually creating this new paradigm and bringing it about. Do I believe in the new paradigm? Yes! Not only do I believe in it, I am working diligently to bring it about. Even more than working, I’m actually at play here. As I said, I already see it happening. I am already celebrating. That’s why I have this smile on my face all the time, and I’m not engaged in the drama. I see through it. Drama is based in illusion. Our authentic nature is love. Fear and therefore all suffering is based in illusion. When we experience fear, which we do as humans, then all we've got to do is remind ourselves, “Oh, that’s fear. I remember what that is. Well, what is the illusion that I’m now within that is creating this experience of fear? Oh, well thank goodness I've studied the illusions of life. It’s that illusion. I’ve been through that illusion before.” And then poof, like a cloud of smoke, the fear is gone because it wasn't real to begin with. Illusion is all smoke and mirrors. So as we live in our hearts and not our heads, life begins to make sense again. 

Love is all there is. All negative experience derives from fear, which is the polar opposite of love. Fear is what allows us to experience being the love that we actually are because the source of all things is love. It longs to experience itself, but it can’t because it’s everything there is. In order to have experience, there must be something else. There must be something other than what I am. The source can create anything except something that its not, because it’s everything. So in order to actually experience being the love, we create the illusion of there being something else, something other, and fear arrives out of these illusions. The primary illusion in life is need. Why is there no need? Because there is only one of us. There is also an infinite number of us. Divine Dichotomies. It’s both. So since there is only one of us, how can one thing need something when it’s everything? It can’t. There’s no need. There’s no need because there is always an alternative. It’s our attachment to a particular result that causes our suffering when things don’t unfold as we’d hoped. So no attachments. Now if we choose to believe that need exists, which is doesn’t, then we must justify that illusion with another illusion to support it. If need exists, then disunity must also exist. If disunity exists, then separation must exist. That’s where the fear arrives, which leads us to feel like “I am separate from the source.” “I am separate from others.” “Oh, poor me.” “I’m afraid.” See how it works? We are love loving love, for love is all there is...
