BOOK LIGHTS: His Holiness the Dalai Lama in “The Path to Tranquility”

February 3, 2010 — Rosemary
“Whether their entire life will be successful or not depends much upon the atmosphere young children feel throughout the day.  In a family where there is love and compassion, the children will become happier and more successful human beings.  Without love, there is a danger of spoiling or ruining their whole life.  Human affection is thus most influential for children’s development.”

The most important ingredient in any recipe is LOVE.  Share that ingredient with your children and you will do the best you can for them.  And they will, in turn, learn to share Love with others.

MUSE-INGS: Eat, Drink and Be Conscious

February 2, 2010 — Rosemary

The children.  They should always be our concern when we are making decisions.  As any real estate agent will tell you, families with children are considering the number of bedrooms/bathrooms they need for the kids, the schools in the area, the protection of the yard for playing outdoors, where the parks are, how close to the road is the house, and lots of other factors.

But it seems we live in a crazy world where the food that goes into their bodies isn’t anywhere near as healthy as it should be.  Breakfast foods that aren’t really food don’t prepare the children for a good day of learning at school.  McDonald’s meals might not provide the healthiest balance of ingredients that they need.  Many kids refuse to eat the foods that Mom & Dad know they should eat.  What can a parent do?

It seems to me that everyone can only do their best.  Offering fast food only occasionally if at all is a start.  Buying fresh food choices and teaching the kids to prepare food introduces them to a future of healthy eating.  Your little one might really enjoy some one-on-one time in the kitchen with you as you prepare a meal together.  Some kids would love to help out but the folks are tired and just want to get the meal over with so they lose an opportunity for togetherness in the activity.

Sometimes kids are kept out of the kitchen to be out of the way for their own safety.  I used to worry when I heard that my little girl was peeling carrots in her Montessori classroom but she showed me at home, standing on a chair at the sink because she was so short, that she could safely handle a peeler and a carrot.  She learned to cook standing on a chair by the stove, with me close by.  Bring a child into the kitchen with you and teach her to use a recipe to prepare something delicious.

But it’s not just food, is it, that is harming our kids?  We need to understand how complicated life is in this 21st Century.  We’re all breathing air that is less than perfect for our bodies.  We all have to drink water and we pay huge amounts to try to get healthier water that doesn’t have chlorine or fluoride or bacteria in it but that does have the minerals we need.  I tried to get an ice cream cone in London from an American chain and was told they don’t carry Rocky Road because the ingredients are genetically-modified, not allowed to be imported there.  How many food products are we eating that contain molecules of pesticide in them?  And we don’t even know the answer because we have no way to find out.

So Conscious Living would require us to pay attention to what goes into our bodies and the bodies of the children in our lives.  Do you know the source of the food you eat, the water you drink?  Have you paid attention to the air quality in your area?

For some people this will spur them into political action to demand that their environment and what they take into their bodies is as healthy as they can get it.  For some it will become a crusade to make sure that they and their family are careful about these things.  I’m hoping that some will think about areas of the world where the people are desperate for anything to eat or drink and where help is needed in meeting the simplest of requirements for life.

We in the Western World have the luxury of examining the chemical content of our food while there are many on Earth who would love to have that concern.  Let’s be careful about what we eat and drink and the air we breathe while we also do something about all those children who have nothing to eat, no clean water to drink.  Maybe we can achieve a balance so that this wonderful Mother Earth can provide sustenance for all her children, healthy sustenance that keeps them all alive and healthy and thriving to advance humanity into evolved consciousness.

Mystic Message from The Divine Feminine: Consider the Children; they are our future!

February 1, 2010 — Rosemary
Dear Ones,

These are times when many are concerned about the children in their lives and it is right that there should be concern.  We are not wishing to scare anyone but the children of your times are not being given the consideration that they deserve and need.

Let us first talk about the environment on Planet Earth, for that is an immediate and desperate arena.  The human body was developed to exist in the purest of circumstances on Planet Earth.  The lungs were designed to breathe clean air, the blood circulatory system to handle impurities and to carry life to cells, and the digestive and elimination systems to take in healthy food while removing that which the body does not need or cannot process.  Even the skin has a major role to play in the healthy balance of the systems in the body as it is part of the system of eliminating waste and balancing the temperature of the body.

But the children of your day are being given food, air, water and earth to walk on that contain very unhealthy elements that are detrimental to their development as healthy human beings.  The air they are breathing contains many molecules that the lungs were not designed to deal with.  The foods they are ingesting contain chemicals that no system in the body knows how to handle.  The water they drink contains so many things that are not healthy that it is no longer the single most precious, life-giving substance they can take into their bodies.  Do not fool yourself into believing that the large companies that are in charge of these factors are concerned with the health of your children and grandchildren, for they have lost sight of the human aspect of their work.

Now we are not saying that every individual who works for these companies does not care about your children or their children.  But we are saying that in the aggregate these corporations have ‘forgotten’ that little bodies are affected by decisions about what the products contain or the effect a process will have on the natural environment.  Each person does a little job and may do it well, but when the pieces are put together the overall effect can be deleterious to the health of the next generation.

When politicians believe that air pollution is not dangerous they do so because someone has convinced them of findings that are misleading at best, perhaps even deliberately so.  When corporate heads are analyzing data they are looking at financial information, not at the effect their product will have on a 4-year-old who lives in your house.  These people are not ‘bad people’ but they are not concerned or motivated by the care and concern that you have for the children in your life.

YOU are the one who must be concerned about the children in your care or in your life.  What can you do to assist them in having the healthiest life they can have?  Why is this important?

The children who are on Planet Earth at this time are the ones who have Spirits that agreed to move the Planet through the coming changes and into a New Era on Earth.  These Souls know their work is global, not provincial.  They are concerned with all of humanity, not just their own neighborhood.  But to accomplish what they have come to Earth to do they must keep their bodies healthy enough to support their efforts. They require a healthy environment, good food, clean air, supporting energies so they can get good educations, and a loving, nurturing home environment to be allowed to grow into the person they incarnated to be.  Whatever relationship you have with today’s children, it is your work to make sure that each child has this support.

Do what you can to provide these requirements to all children on Planet Earth.  If you do not have children at your home at this time, help other people’s children.  Work for the good of children in other countries.  Make sure that young people have support and information so they can grow into healthy adults to accomplish their mission on Earth. Take care of Mother Earth for them.  Do what you can to reverse the damage caused by previous generations and others who have not yet been educated about the harm they are causing.  Figure out what is yours to do to support children.

Even if you have no children in your immediate arena, help the children of others.  Too many children do not have the support they need to become critical thinkers.  Too many do not have access to opportunities to express their own creativity, the artist within.  Can you support efforts to provide those opportunities?

There is much that can be done.  The children need your efforts.  Do it for the children and the future.

And so it is.
