"What can we do to help?"  People everywhere are asking this question.  It is a part of the human soul to want to help others when we are in times of distress.  Governments around the world are getting their heads together as they do their part.  Celebrities are organizing fundraisers, and even donning hard hats as they work shoulder-to-shoulder at Ground Zero.  Others are giving blood.  Still others donate much needed clothing, toys, and essential items.  The list goes on, as America, and the global community pitch in to offer whatever kind of help they can.  

Over the past few days some of us at TCS have been formulating ideas on what we can offer.  The present situation requires resources for those suffering from this disaster.  But the world also needs to stop terrorism--or this could happen again, anywhere, at any time.  As we watch the world's leaders discuss how they will find the terrorist needles in a haystack, I have asked myself how we might help that same area.  

Beings of darkness reside in dark places.  They cannot be found for they blend into their dark surroundings.  But if one aims a flashlight into those dark corners, they will be seen, and flushed out into the open.  We can do that.

Everything is made of energy.  Einstein told us that.  'Everything' means just that, and it especially includes our thoughts and words.  When we think of depressing, unhappy, destructive things, we create a self-fulfilling prophecy and end up creating more of the same!  It causes our energy field to become gray and dark.  But when we put out positive, life-supporting, healing thoughts we create an atmosphere of Light, peace, and optimism, and our projected energy becomes quite light--like a beacon.  In other words, we literally create our own reality.

To augment that energy... to strengthen the Light we emanate when we are in a positive mood, we can use a magnifier such as prayer, healing techniques, sacred rituals, etc.  When many souls come together in Light they generate much more than individual pockets of Light.  It would be like placing 500 candles together on one table, rather than having them each burning in separate locations.  The Light becomes visible for great distances.... and it sheds light into the darkened areas.

I would like to ask for your suggestions on how we may do this.  Do you use prayer, ritual, sacred teachings, plants, herbs, crystals?  If you have found techniques that have a positive, life-supporting influence, we would love to have them.  Send them to me and I will post everything possible.  I also have many, many techniques to share, and will add these in a following newsletter.

Blessings.......  Cheyenne


In the meantime, there have been many submissions since the last newsletter and I will add them here.
