Part I; Rabbi Michael Lerner calls on environmentalists to develop a spiritual vision: http://grist.org/news/maindish/2006/03/22/roberts/index.html
"we want to challenge the materialism and selfishness in American society and to call for a new bottom line. The old bottom line is that institutions get judged efficient or rational to the extent that they maximize money and power. We say that institutions should be judged efficient, rational, or productive to the extent that they maximize love and caring, kindness and generosity, ethical and ecological sensitivity; enhance our capacity to respond to other human beings as embodiments of the sacred; and enhance our capacity to respond to the natural world with awe and wonder and radical amazement at the grandeur of creation."
Part II; Rabbi Lerner calls for a world based on love, kindness, generosity, ethical and ecological sensitivity, awe, and wonder: http://gristmill.grist.org/story/2006/3/22/111227/048
"What we care about is that when you get down to making a decision, whether it's in the board room or in a school room or in conference committee, that your criteria are ecological sanity, love and kindness, generosity, and awe and wonder at the universe. Enhancing those: That's what a spiritual politics is."
Peace and Blessings!

There is one age left for the garden of man. Spring in the garden will see much upheavel and change. The very substance of the world on the molecular level will be changed. It will be like the dawn arising on the world... Darkness will flee before it. This is the time of aching and groaning...
I watched in my NDE the beginning and end of the earth...
There is one age left for the garden of man. The last age of man will begin in Spring. Spring in the garden will see much upheavel. The very substance of the world on the molecular level will be changed. It will be like the dawn arising on the world... This is the time of aching and groaning...
The Summer is the first harvest for the garden. For those who come out of the shadows it will be a brand new day. There will still be want as each creature will still have to feed itself but none will harm another for their needs...and each of us will only be limited by our dreams...There will still be labor but it will be a labor of love...We will reap the fruits of kindness and harvest a different kind of grain.
There is one last Fall harvest and that is all. Every good seed planted with love will grow ripe. In the Fall of man, death itself is put on hold for a very long season. For those that wish to play in this garden it will be a good time to be a Fall gardener...In the Fall, Earth will have a long season of peace and prosperity... The darkness inside will attempt to hide in the hidden dark places behind walls and in caves...deep dungeons...cities inside of mountains and on the sides of hills...There will come a day in the Fall when the dark hidden things will attempt to creep from their hidden places to steal the harvest of the garden but the garden will be so full of love and kindness that the hidden dark things will not find a way to carry the load without being consumed by the light which it despised...but the light will eventually find its way inside each spirit...In the transition between Spring and Winter...Darkness will flee from every shadow and be rooted out...The darkness inside of each of us will desire to live just one more night but this too will pass into the light... The difference being that the shadows inside of us will be exposed to the light of loving kindness and joy...What is joy and light will remain... The spirits of the night will slither and slide away. Sickness and disease will be the the first casualty...Greed is the next...Death itself will be the last to die but after the Winter of silence... death will die...
The Winter for the garden may look like its destruction...But it is not...The Winter will only come when every dream of Earth that is filled with light is dreamed...And when every loving seed that has been planted with love has sprouted its fruit has been harvested...The Winter is a very long season but all of the harvested dreams that are harvested with love...those dreams are safely held. This is the season of silence...The earth will be no more but its song will still be sung thoughtout all of the universes... A love story. With all things built in space space and time...there will come an end...But every good and loving seed planted in the garden will still exist in the spirit of loving kindness...in timelessness...
Today is the day to prepare for the coming of the dawn...

- New Dawn by yourenchantedgardener

"Today is the day to prepare
for the coming of the dawn."
--Rudenski
http://curezone.com/blogs/c/c.asp?d=12346
"New Dawn" is one of my favorite
songs written by my dear friend
Stephen Longfellow Fiske.
I has been a great honor in this life
to walk in Peace alongside Stephen,
even at times when I could not walk at all
he has walked for me.
This was the brother who first helped me
make the transition back to my Jewish Roots.
Stephen and I would be in lots of Closing Ceremonies
in the 80's with the likes of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach
who would call me "The Greatest Jew of All."
He liked to say things like that, and likely said
it to lots of people, just like Dr. Jensen would
say, "Carrots! The Greatest Food of All!" until he
came to Tomatoes...or Kale, or one and on.
Stephen's Voice just popped on this instant as I
am writing this with computer Itunes in the background.
"Isn't it a miracle when our prayers are heard?"
Angels and Miracles show the way of Grace
You might not hear about it in the News
or in the language that the Cynics use,
but I do, I do believe in Angels and Miracles!"
Yes, it was through Stephen, that I came
back to Unravel the Trauma of my Original Pain Work.
We can Unravel that Trauma, my friend Felice Dunas
is convinced.
Some of this story I tell in "Rekindling of Faith,"
The book being reissued by Christmas.
I have met Rabbi Lerner in my journeys
through Jewish Renewal.
He has been coming to the So Cal area of late.
I am sure we all have opportunities to see before long.
John Vasconcellos, the former dean of the California
Senate, speaks a Holy Political Message as well
as part of his legacy called "The Politics of Trust"
Network.
You can read about his work here:

Rising Sun,
Our Rudenski, writes:
".The darkness inside of each of us will desire
to live just one more night but that too
will pass into the light...
The difference being that the shadows inside
of us will be exposed by the light of loving kindness and joy..."
I Awaken today.
This is what I am feeling inside.
I am conversing with the Inner Child
who was hurt and left behind.
I am seeing him more clearly,
asking him to come out of the darkness
because I am able to love him more.
I am filled with Gratitude.
for my close ones
My Twin Soul/Best Friend
who I allow to show me
to remind me
that,
"It helps knowing I'm in it for the growth,
my growth. I know my life is about my Soul
and how my Soul grows through knowing you."
--"Soul Mates"
My friend Ariella reminds me
this is a Glorious Day!
It is 11:11.
My friend Andrew of Health Concerns requests some
Pomegranate photos.
I am reminded of the Goddess who
lived half in Dark and half in the Light
of Earth.
I go to the garden now
to Visit her fruit
that she comes to live Fully in her
Body on Earth, as well as Fully in her Body
in Heaven.
Blessings on your Journey:
