Skanda is out catching waves with friends and takes time each day to do his yoga practice. Once upon a time in 1999, while on a surfing trip to Brazil, he ate a bowl of Acai Berries that delighted his senses. They were grown in the Amazon. Skanda had an epihany that day. He thought he could help the indigenous people of the rain forest, helping them earn a Fair Trade harvesting their Acai Berries, rather than cut down trees to make a living.
Fast Forward to 2012. Skanda, the co-founder of Sambazon Superfoods has contributed to the livelihood of more than 10,000 indigenous people of Brazil who want to live in harmony with the beat of nature. Today, thousands of people each day drink the delightful Sambazon Superfood Acai drinks perhaps with little knowledge that they are helping to save rainforest.
Today the popular drink is making its way into supermarkets, as well as stores where people look for healthier foods. It's distribution grows each day, and the Sambazon Cafe in Encinitas, California and soon Newport Beach epitomize conscious commerce and outstanding Green building practices.
It's by example that we inspire each other. From the mountaintops today, I hear a call that says Plant Your Dream! Skanda, is one among many today, who showing how making the most of our Sacred Seeds, we can create a new world.

I am fine tuning details. On my Radar this morning is a very inspiring new ally, Skanda, the co- founder of Sambazon Superfood.
We spend quality time Sunday July 15 at the Yoga Journal Marketplace at the Sheridan Hotel. I met Shanda the day before. I came back the following day with some Green Fix Smoothie from Daniel Toth made of 100 % organic greens, banana, and apple. This was a gift for Skanda, who kicked off a weekend of telling others about the Right to Know Label GMO Grass Roots Movement I am working to support now. Skanda and his team at the Yoga Journal Conference also enjoyed some fresh organic tomatoes grown by
J.R. Organic, one of my favorite local farm families that have Farmers Markets through San Diego and into Los Angeles.
Giving the Label GMOs Right to Know Victory November 6
A key part of the boost I want to give Prop 37 is my full time work to support victory for the ballot measure November 6, election day, with
There were 15 Million who voted in the general election 2008. it will take i'7.5 Million + 2' of us to vote yes, a simple majority if the same number voted today. Toward this end, I started the '7.5 Million + 2 Petition' on Change. Org.
Themes in the '7.5 Million + 2 Petition'
This Petition 'Rounds' out a number of crucial themes that are important now
to not only win the Ballot measure, but Win Back our Sacred Seeds.
Skanda, a founder of Sambazon epitomizes what I mean by Sacred Seed.
inspired by a bowl of Acai berries on a surfing trip to Brazil in 1999, this brilliant Sacred Seed put together a plan that has now helped more than 10,000 indigenous people earn a Fair Trade livelihood and in doing so save thousands of acres of rain forest.
A Brochure for Samazon Reads:
Sambazon's journey began in 1999 when we experienced a blow of acai during a surf trip to brazil. when we discovered that sustainable harvesting of amazon super foods like acai could create jobs and help protect the rainforest, we made it our mission to share these amazing fruits with the world. today, our certified organic and fair trade partnership helps protect the rianforest and benefits over 10,000 family farmers while bringing you the next level in superfood nutrition."--

That is the kind of inspiration that our world needs now.
I once wrote a poem about living in a dream of our own making, or the dream of someone else.
It is better to light a single candle that curse the darkness, so one spiritual saying goes.
Right now, we all have a big job on our hands.
We can give the US the Right to Know-Label GMOs as we create together the Greatest Grass Roots Movement in California history.
For more than 30 years now, I have seen the benefits that come when we connect our own beat with the beat of nature.
Plant Your Dream--a teaching I share and have received from the mountaintops--is my message.
SIGN THE "7.5 MILLION + 2 PETITION HERE
WE CALIFORNIANS--AND OUR FRIENDS IN OTHER STATES AND NATIONS-- HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT IS IN OUR FOOD.
WE WANT TO LABEL GMO FOODS.
"If commercial interests--once again-- have convinced Congress--to do business as usual--and that profits are more important than our children having improved lunches in schools, if Congress has now said that a few tablespoons of tomato sauce define Pizza as a Vegetable, then we, as Conscious Consumers will Grow a Healthier Pizza through the action of the '7.5 Million + 2 Petition.' To top off this pizza, we want to know the quality of our Ingredients. If pizza is made from cans and containers that have ingredients that are made with GMOs--Genetically Modified Organisms--We have a 'Right To Know,' and say "Label GMO's!" just like people in near 50 other nations. Together now, the people of California--with support from people of other states and nations signing as well--will build the Greatest Grass Roots Movement in California History. We are 'Sacred Seeds' It is time now to 'Win Back Our Sacred Seeds.' " --Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener, Plant Your Dream Blog
June 22, 2012
Millions of Californians are without their knowledge eating GMOs every day. GMOs are Genetically Modified Organisms. They have been in our food for a number of decades. Somebody thought this was O.K. to include GMOs in the daily foods we eat, but did not take the time to ask us first if we wanted them there. Near 50 nations of the world have the integrity to give their people choice to know if they are eating GMOs in their corn, soy, and a host of other foods, but in the US, since the inception of the idea of the FDA in 1906, Commercial interests have placed profits over producing healthy kids and influenced heavily our food supply. Congress, in Fall 2011, declared that tomato sauce qualified Pizza as a vegetable to keep from the added expense of improving foods in our schools. Toward that end, we are coming together, bonding together, opening an honest Dialogue on Science, Ethics, and Food about GMOs. We are here to educate ourselves, and our fellow Californians that we might each stand in the light about what we are eating. We believe that in signing this petition we are Cultivating Food Justice on our own tables. Our bottomline is that we have a 'Right to Know' our food ingredients and to 'Label GMO Foods.' We intend to create a massive grassroots movement to support this.
We love California. We love good food. Many of us are gaining confidence now that we can grow some of our own foods. We trust the process of initiative in the Golden State. We come together now as registered voters, and as others around the country and from many nations, that the people of California become aware that GMOs are in many of our foods. We each, endorse the California 'Right to Know - Label GMOs.' We are letting each other know that we are standing together here to 'Grow a Healthier Pizza' for our Kids.

WHAT'S UP WITH THE NUMBER 7.5 MILLION + 2 CALIFORNIANS?
I was with Pamm Larry, May 29, 2012. She is the Grandma who started the California Right to Know Label GMOs Proposition that is on the Nov 6 ballot. Someone asked, how many people voted in California? She said 15 million. She said that we needed a couple people plus 50 % to win the California Right to Know Label GMOs Ballot Proposition. So...I thought...that meant we needed a magical number: "7.5 Million + 2 Californians" to Vote "Yes." Get it?
The "7.5 Million + 2" Petition is about counting our numbers now, and helping to build the most powerful Grassroots Movements California has seen.

“If you watch the growth of this seed...
you will find that there is an indestructible
and mysterious power in it--the power of life.
If you watch long enough,
you will see that the grain disappears
and is replaced by a plant
which will triumph over
all obstacles and opposition--
which will grow higher and higher
and higher because it has life within it.”
from "The Book of Asha,"
by Edmond S. Bordeaux
(Edmond B. Szekely)
"You,too, must one day cease to be your present self,
so that you may become a richer personality,
in pursuance of the law that life always creates more life,
truth more abundant truth, the seed more abundant seeds.
This is one answer to your problems given by the grain of
wheat--Professor Edmond. B. Szekely,
"The Essene Book of Asha."

BEET KEEPERS, RETURN!
'Beet Keepers, Return' is a play on words for an international movement that is needed now to on the Journey to Win Back Our Sacred Seeds.
'Beet' is a play on words for 'beat' and a reference to the beat of nature that has been by most of us and can be regained as we began to get our confidence back that we can grow some of our own food.
Begin with growing a beet in a pot. Move on to some of these recommended Plant Friends.
