Har-Money in Europe

Open letter to:

the main entities involved in representing, guarding and developing the system of European Values:

• Mario Draghi, the president of the ECB ( European Central Bank)
• Donald Tusk, the president of the European Counsel
• The parliament of Europe

C:C: all involved in the collective consciousness

Dear all,

With this open letter, I am applying for a function on the European team, as the Creative Head of Project Harmoney.

In this letter, I will outline the thoughts behind Project Harmoney and introduce myself.

About me:

I am a Dutch, 44 year old woman, currently living in France.
I am independently active as an advisor in sustainable community developments.
My expertise lies in a combination of fields: 

• I have a bachelor degree as a teacher in human interactions
• I have then years of experience as an information specialist in the public domain, with a focus on developing online information management systems online.
• I am an empath ( sensitive to what people really think and feel)
• I am a natural 80/20 thinker
• I have an affinity for seeing  practical simple, seriously playful, relatively ‘los cost’ ways on influencing the belief systems in the collective consciousness. Soulful ways, that are designed to : empower people to be able to invest their own talents, apply their own inner wisdom  and highest understandings of ‘quality of life’ smoothly in everyday life.
• Through active experience, I know three cultures from living with it and speak their respective languages well: Dutch (native), British and French.

With this combination of strengths, I am dedicating my life to supporting the social emotional and mental developments of communities.
Strengthening the inner strength of the social fabric, by broadening the perceptions horizons:

• from seeing increasingly problems and  ‘lack’ everywhere
  ( what people believe needs dealing with, by applying ‘more money’),
• to seeing increasingly opportunities for intra- and interpersonal growth
  (what both scientific and esoteric sources point out to be achieved by applying more truth in harmony)

The European Union

Founded on an understanding that peace and prosperity stand a much better chance, when nations are on speaking terms with each other and cooperate on important issues, The European Union developed in the decades after World War II.

In all those decades, turbulence and differences of opinion, have always played a part in the developments. These questions usually form the heart of those matters:

• ‘ what can the  people in Europe freely decide for themselves, in their own cultural ways’ and
• ‘ what would be better, for all parties involved, to be governed from Brussels and Strasbourg?’

Currently, there seems to be an reasonably strong current in the collective consciousness where the people of Europe are indicating that they need more freedom in expression their own ways and less ‘Europe’, less ‘adapting to others’., to thrive, to be happy.

Any ‘others’ that seem to take a bite out of our money-minded security,  are looked upon with increasing suspicions and a sense of threat  and the sentiments of desiring to protect what is ‘ours’ arise.

On those sentiments, the Brits have voted to leave, despite that most people who think twice about it, acknowledge that Brexit, separating into smaller units again, is not doing the overall stability much good.
The same sentiments are alive in other countries within Europe.

In the international field, more fascinating choices have been made recently.
Do people really want to step away from efforts of peace-keeping and open, calm dialogue in the world, by focussing on the ‘lack’ there is in their first world everyday life circumstances?

They say, if you are healthy, you have many wishes, if you are unhealthy only one.
The same, I guess is true for peace. If you live in peace, you have many wishes, if you are at war, only one.

Please understand me right here.
I am not saying that those issues, felt by so many people in the Western World are not true or valid!

Based on my experience, I am wondering if the core of the matter doesn’t lie deeper, in the social emotional dynamic systems. ( It usually does, the actual cause of this type of problems is hardly ever found in the world of appearances).

The majority of people in the Western World do not feel to live  in peace, which is why they feel they need to fight for their personal freedom.
They may see and appreciate that they live in a country where there is a fair amount of physical free trade, free travel and physical safety....
Within themselves, however, in their meta-physical world, they don’t see ‘peace of mind’ and feel many limitations placed upon themselves in free trade, free flow and safety to express their freedom of Being Who They Really Are.

The war, most people are in, on a day to day basis, is an internal war between Who They Really Are (a free spirit, a knowing man:  homo sapiens) and the rules and regulations of their own society, they feel placed upon themselves, that are at variance with their nature, their core values as a person.

Cutting the ties with your planetary neighbours is most likley not going to end such an inner war within people.

From my point of view, I think there is a chance here to serve both needs ( BOTH physical peace AND  prosperity and meta-physical peace and a sense of abundance) .

How?

By applying the resources of central government wisely… to increase the peace of mind of individuals in the community, gentle, playful ways that encourage people to do more meta-physical things ‘their way’… their natural, free spirit way.

About the project:

I have a very concrete idea in mind.

It is  based with one leg in the experiences gained in a major physical change in the collective European value system, all adults currently alive in Europe remember well: the introduction of the Euro.
The other leg stands in our collective understandings that money in the daily economic flow needs to be ‘real’ and ‘ whole’ and ‘clean’. So we are all familiar with systems being put in place to secure that only real, good standard money goes from bank to wallets to tills back to the banks again.

Only this time, the Europeans invite everybody to trade with the meta-physical currency of  Har-money, using personal style, as welle as modern means like a website and apps.

What if:......

Everybody is invited to work,  as a freelance ambulant ex-change officer, for the European Central Bank of Harmoney ( ECBoH), where various types of transactions ( in energy in motion… thoughts and feelings!) can occur in a slightly different mindset from being a powerless ordinary civilian.

For instance, as an freelance ambulant ex-change officer for the ECBoH:

• You can encounter a ‘stranger’ who is giving you his/her honest values.
  As a civilian in society, what this person wants to give you, may seem unacceptable to you, so in that function/mind-set, you may feel you have to say: ‘stop, wait, this value is not valid in my/our system, you MUST give me something I value’.
  But as a staff member for the ECBoH, you can accept his honest human values  anyway and ex-change them,  straight away, with a friendly smile, into the values you know to be of real and high value in your system. acknowledging that their notes/values do matter to him/her, in another, probably well working system.
  The energetical equivalent of physical Moroccan Dirham’s, Brasillian Reals, US Dollars or Russian Rubbles ,his foreign to you thoughts and feelings, are simply are released by you into the Central Banking System for international exchange. You, personally ‘ loose’ nothing of value… what you give out from the Har-Money wallet you carry all the time, will be replaced.
• You can encounter notes that vaguely look like real Har-money, but are all fumbled up, dirty, torn or incomplete.
  As a civilian in society, you may really frown upon receiving these. You may feel you have to make critical remarks about  the horrid shape or state of it.  You may even resist accepting them, insisting on receiving something more pristine.
  But as a staff member for the ECBoH, you can accept them anyway and ex-change them,  straight away, with a friendly smile, for whole, complete, clear and fresh notes. For it is easy for you to  acknowledge that these notes/values have served their purpose and it is time now for them to be taken out of the active flow, for recycling in the system.
  The incomplete dirty notes  are released into the Central Banking System. You simply, consciously and thoroughly wash your meta-physical hands before touching anything else and again….what you give out from the Har-Money wallet you carry all the time, will be replaced.
• You can encounter false notes. They may appear to be the real deal, they may even be shiny and smooth and really good looking, but…. being/becoming an expert on what highest truth vibes, real Har-money, actually feels like and looks like, you are pretty sure this isn’t it. It hasn’t all the traits of being really true.
  
  As a civilian in society, you may really reject receiving these, when you notice it. You know that when you starts handing those notes out anywhere else, it may get you in really big trouble!.
  But as a staff member for the ECBoH, you have a wider range of options.
  When you suspect that this person received these false notes somewhere else, without actually noticing the falseness of these well-appearing notes, you can simply accept them with a smile, helping a trusted community-member to complete the desired transaction.
  It is an exception and treated as such, without any fuss ( there are many phoney notes that look very real in rotation!). As part of the Clearing-Harmoniously-The-Whole-System operation, you simply label this note as ‘likely to be false’ and the Central Banking System deals with it.
  Again….what you give out from the Har-Money wallet you carry all the time, will be replaced.
  But sometimes, it occurs, that the very same person, regularly brings an awful lot of phoney notes under your attention.  You can still accept the notes and trade them for ones you know are real. But you may decide you want to act upon this  recurring pattern.
  Before you jump to the conclusion that this person is probably the source of creating those false notes themselves ( for their own profit on the expense of others)  and should be arrested and punished for it…. there is also the likely possibility that they are confidently tapping into another source they actually blindly trust and are simply not as trained in distinguishing real Har-money notes, from counterfeit produce, as you are.
  You may want to share your understandings, to raise real Har-money awareness, on the built-in-traits in real Har-money.

If you are afraid that in this case you might be dealing with a real crook, who is really trying to deceive you on purpose, giving you willingly phoney Har-money notes of his own making, abusing your wallet of real Har-money… then you can alert the ECBoH to get in touch with this person.Let’s face it, when the news is out that you always give out real Harmoney, you are like a honey-pot for crooks. But that is where the system takes responsibility for the wellbeing of her freelance ambulant ex-change workers.

On your initiative,  the person get’s an alert from the ECBoH, though e-mail or sms. Usually  you are that close to such a person, that you know those details. It will state kindly that it has been noted within the system that a pattern of giving out dubious truths has been observed.  Choices are given on how it is advised to proceed, with the aim to raise awareness on the negative (trust deteriorating) social emotional effects of passing on phoney Har-money notes has in civil society. An invitation is included to join the ECBoH, where your Har-money wallet will always be replaced with whatever real Har-money notes you truthfully express.

The latter eliminates the  need to be the producer of ….. what is usually referred to as ‘lies’ or ‘deliberately incomplete truths’… in an attempt to make non-fitting energetical ends meet, in a ways that destroys meta-physical peace of mind and structural integrity of the relations this person is having.

Such a seriously playful way of expanding the use of real Har-money, honouring spiritual, social and physical needs, applying insights on strengthening meaningful relations, as free spirits, respecting the various social context people are living in, would kick-start a positive development cycle. In Europe, of course, but he….. technically is real Har-money a worldwide accepted natural currency, recognised and accepted by all people…..

Will it need resources to create this?
Yes, it will need a fair amount of good old Euros to build such a website and the apps in a technically and aesthetically  high quality way, in all languages spoken in the EU.
It will take a fair budget to communicate clearly and widely about this initiative, so people do know about it and can choose to apply for being a freelance ambulant ex-change worker for the ECBoH.

First  of all, this idea needs thinking about!
Do you, as the leaders of Europe, consider using your resources and influence to actively raise awareness and support people in seeing what they can do themselves in the flow of Har-Money,  their unique way, to be a good idea?

It almost goes without saying, that I would love to be involved, from  answering questions you might have prior to making a decision, to being actively involved in the creation process, with my expertise on influencing the meta-physical layers of the physical world, wisely.

Thank you for giving this ( unconventional) idea appropriate attention and letting me know how it resonates with you.

Enjoy your day,

either majority.... or... minority?

Invitation to play to the CWG community

Implementing our highest understandings on governing ourselves

In the book 'Conversations With God, The Uncommon Dialogue, part III',  Neale Donald Walsch wonders in chapter 16:" What (else) marks a society as either ‘primitive’ or ‘advanced’?"

The answer is short and sweet: ‘ The degree to which it implements its own highest understandings’.

In the same paragraph, this statement gets followed by this meaningful  question:” What good are the highest understandings if you do not implement them?”

My name is Esther Dageraad.
I am an international advisor in sustainable community developments and I work from a paradigm of oneness.
I choose to invite the people who are attracted by the idea of applying the insights from Conversations with God in their everyday life, to have a close look at the highest understandings going, on: leadership and decision making processes within communities.

democracy

There are democratic elections being organised in one of the nations with the most impact on the use of all kinds of resources on our planet, the USA is in the process of choosing a new president.

I think it is fair to say, we ( modern Western World people) consider ‘democracy’ a reflection of our highest understandings on governing ourselves. It reflects the core choice to allow the majority in a group to make important decisions for the whole, like choosing community-leaders. “Who represents best our personal values and ideas on how to support the quality of life?”

Anyone who observes the actual behaviour of our species for a while, can notice how we say that we believe we are making important decisions by executing what the majority of the people involved in a matter consider to be the best approach.

Meanwhile, however, it is also quite clear that on all levels, from intra-personal, to inter-personal, inter-national, inter-est and inter(-n)-al, we do quite the opposite, every single day. 

So we say we desire to go to Seattle, meanwhile heading day in day out towards San Jose…. (reference to content of the book)

The road to San Jose is in this case, being ‘OK’ with letting a small minority make important decisions on, for instance, how the life-sustaining resources we have access to are used and cared for.

minority/majority?
These are the observations on those levels:

intra-personal  (in one’s inner world):

We put our conscious mind functions in charge of our choices, Which is indeed the majority of what we are most easily consciously aware of.
However, seen from our total mind capacity, our conscious mind functions form only approximately 20% of all functions being minded..... .
About 80% of the life sustaining processes within a person takes place subconsciously, far below the thresholds of our awareness. (Think for example: digestion of food and information, cell-regeneration, waste-management… to name a few functions the conscious mind is hardly actively involved in)

inter-personal (between two or more individuals):

We put the flow of 'matter' in charge of our time-investment decisions. We see material values (stuff, among which money ranks on number one) as most influential on our levels of interpersonal prosperity and wellbeing. As if we are thinking: " what really matters in our communities is what you can count". However, we are (at least semi-) aware that the things you can count and weigh (matter) make up only a fraction of the whole flow of what is playing a part in being well, in this Universe.
The majority of 'things' that really, really matter to satisfying levels of richness and wellbeing is the invisible flow of 'what you can really count on' in life: the immaterial flow of the treasures of a good life. For instance: trust, faith, belief, support, care, comfort, sharing knowledge, cooperation, kind intentions....... 

inter-national (between two or more countries)

Roughly 250 million voters on a population of roughly 320 million, sounds like a majority.Roughly 250 million voters on a population of roughly 7 billion, is very much a minority.

inter-est (the relations between 'what is')

Does 7 billion of very influential people alive today sound like a whole lot of beings alive?

Human beings are only a tiny minority, in numbers, of all beings alive on this Earth, ​who's lives we impact a great deal with our day to day decisions.

Well, going to San Jose might be a beautiful journey too, with a lot of fun and interesting debates along the way, bringing forward the experiences we chose in order to evolve and advance, both personally and as a species…..?
HEB’s* litmus test: Do those governing systems work well?
Is prosperity and wellbeing indeed thriving, for all involved?

I suspect there is hardly anyone in this world who would answer these questions wholeheartedly with:” O yes! I observe that we are all doing really really well!”.
And if there is, I am pretty sure (s)he isn’t voicing the majority’s experiences.

So…can we come up with something that works better, for all involved?

“Yes we can….!” Or am I on the wrong election round here ;-)

Where is the next meta-physical roundabout where we can choose to take the road to meta-physical ‘Seattle’?

This idea, this text, this invitation to play with the content of this website, may very well be such a meta-physical roundabout.

I figure that this big election, might be a very good opportunity to really look deeply at our decision making and self-governing processes and move into another direction with it.
Developing ourselves in a direction that honours, joyfully and freely the (natural, spiritual) human constitution, reclaiming peacefully our human co-creative choices-rights as a tribe member in the tribe of mankind.
Implementing our highest understandings......
if you like making either or choices....... either oneness..... or... democracy.

I know, that is the same exit on this meta-physical roundabout, which makes it a both/and choice, here.

In co-creation with the source of life, I designed invitations to play with this oneness-paradigm, in the light of choices revolving around leadership and I made them available through this website: http://being-one.weebly.com/
Showing those who are curious about it, very practical possibilities on implementing your highest understandings in what you perceive to be your community.

Honouring your freedom of choice, holding the be-do-have paradigm**, the way it usually does work wonders, for all involved.

Enjoy!

A letter

TO: the collective consciousness of all people who care to know 

CC: Eckhart Tolle

Dear reader,

I recently read Eckhart Tolle’s book ‘A New Earth’.
I was enjoying the book a great deal, but in the light of ‘the palette of choice’ project, I couldn’t help noticing that the painted picture on ‘living in the now’‘ seems to contain a great deal of “either….. or….“ options, which may by troubling the MIND (Managing Information for New Developments) of an interested reader.

With all due respect for my colleague Eckhart Tolle and his pioneering work to help people focus on the opportunities offered in the NOW..... some things were not quite sitting well with my preferred palette of choice..

The way he writes about the "ego" seems to me to be somewhat at odds with what he also writes: "What you resist persists and gets even stronger.”.

In his descriptions, the ego seems to be identified as the source of all madness and the root of all evil; a very clever illusion that lurks around and jumps on any occasion to interfere with your everyday life during unguarded moments. Reason? So that you (again) come to believe that you ARE  'the ego'.

Why would that be a problem?

Well, ego-based behaviour is said to be the root of all pain and suffering; if not for yourself, then surely for others.

And, as a (wannabe) enlightened being… that is surely the last thing you would want, isn’t it?

Eckhart Tolle seems to suggest that it would best not to feed your ego with "negative" energy, because that would also feed the pain-body.  This entity, which also dwells in you, has the power to create quite some havoc in your inner household - to the point where you can even become “not yourself”.

The way he puts it may lead to this happening:- in everything you do, you start to wonder "Oh dear, is this now my ego or not?”
In ‘palette of choice-speak’: “ Is this either good/non-ego-based… or bad/ ego-based?”

And with the slightest suspicion that your ego might be involved in your thoughts, feelings and actions, you then chose to do your utmost best to prevent this ego-driven behaviour from happening ......

If  ‘experiencing enlightenment’ is your goal, this approach is likely to backfire on you, given ‘what you resist persists and gets even stronger’.

‘Thinking' is another thing Eckhart Tolle doesn’t seem to consider to be charming or very helpful in Being Yourself.

What he recommends is "Presence," a conscious presence in the moment.  Applying that allows you to accept all of this NOW with full attention, without thinking about it.

And as much as I do know and appreciate how Presence feels and works, I also know that's very complicated for beginners in the field of working with a heightened degree of awareness and consciousness to BE that; to apply that skilfully.  Especially in difficult situations where all kinds of emotions and thoughts are tumbling around in their system and you’re easily triggered into ‘either….or…… choices’ inspired by either…..fight…. or flightimpulses in a perceived crisis situation.

Then what?

Using my talent for finding and proposing really simple practical options, this is what I see could work, even for a beginner.

I think it is feasible for anybody to apply just one leading question on any challenging situation.

• A question which both… your ego and… your innermost being find interesting to play with, which saves you having to deal with an inner conflict  (Being or Doing, Ego or Self) within the turmoil of the situation.
• A question that focuses your attention, in an open way, on what is really present in the here and now (which automatically activates the Presence of your innermost being)
• Something you are allowed, without tension, to actively think about (which activates your active consciousness) without having to put energy into the effort of you trying to stop thinking.  Given the beginner level of consciousness, it is simply not very likely at this time that you’ll succeed in stopping thinking - the energies present are too powerful and they don’t ‘bend’ for the powers you can confidently apply right now.

That leading question in any situation could be:

"What is of value (for me) in this situation?"

With all the things that come up you keep asking this very same question, as calmly as possible, until there is nothing more of value that you haven’t noticed or picked up.
 You know when you've reached that point, because you are then very calm, with a positive feeling. If necessary, you can walk away quietly; you let it go.  

The reason? 
You know deep within that you have left nothing behind of great value to you (or "lost" anything), in that situation.

"Value? Value?! ... Hey .... there is disappointment!" may shout a voice within you.”

"Yes, thank you for bringing that under my attention. Show me, please….what is the value for me in noticing the fact that disappointment is there, now?”

This way you show that you accept that disappointment IS present. In ‘palette of choice speak’: “ I accept both… the knocking at my door and….. the entering of the message and.. that I have to give it my full attention in order to be heard and understood.

You do not fight it, but are showing interest in its value.  Not so much inquiring why the disappointment is there, because that could quite quickly lead to a focus on what's missing in this situation, nor what is wrong about it and what others (preferably, of course ;-) ) have done wrong.

‘Either…right, or….wrong’ thinking patterns activate, at high speed, the "negative spiral" that is not likely to open up the full palette of choice within you.

No, this question focuses on what for you is all vitally important to experience.

What happens under the bonnet is this:

• Your ego interprets this question as: "What is of high value for me, personally?" 
• Leaning towards: What can I get out of this? What is in it for me, at a personal level?
• Your deepest essence interprets this question as: "What occurs here in my Presence (what presents itself to me), that is of high collective value?" .... 
• Leaning towards: What can I bring here? What is it that I can shine my light on?

It would be very nice if you can invite both parts to put their respective answers together in this formula:

" The VALUE of experiencing ‘X’ in this situation is that I KNOW I LOVE  ‘Y’ ".

This formula works wonders, because it contains the three magic ingredients Tolle has identified: acceptance, joy and enthusiasm.

To put it in my own words:

• You focus on the value of this experience, which shifts your attention to Joy (Joy of Being). This actively makes a connection with the desire of your innermost being.
• You make a statement in which you indicate that you are connected to The Knowing (the collective consciousness). This Knowing has a more versatile multi-layered, multichannel, multidimensional range of qualities than 'thinking'.
• You say openly and honestly that you love. You feel that love, remember that love, embrace the object of your affection with your attention, here and now. Love, so they say, is the most powerful energy that you can call forward to bring relief to a situation.

I KNOW I LOVE, might very well be YOU Acknowledging Who You Really Are; Being the Knowing of your Whole Self.

In following this formula, you do absolutely nothing to push anything away in order to freely embrace what you value. (not somebody else’s experience, not even your ego, not even your pain)

In addition to that …. energetically ….. it is much easier working/playing /dealing with what IS, then with what is missing.

It even works in the material world.
Try building anything with the stones that are missing and …. it will not succeed. But if building something sturdy is the sought after thing of real value, you’ll probably see other building materials currently present in the situation that you can use to fulfil the very same purpose.

Examples of applying the formula?

You order soup to eat and it arrives cold.  You wish to calmly resolve the situation.  Applying the formula you consider:-

• The value of experiencing disappointment in this situation, is that I know I love hot soup.
• The value of experiencing anger in this situation, is that I know I love openness and honesty.
• The value of experiencing frustration in this situation is that I know I love mutual respect and clear communication.

Knowing those answers will bring you peacefully, joyfully and fully automatically into the lukk palette of choice, working with all that IS (relevant), here and now.

Then, the next natural question pops up: "Okay, what is the best way of dealing with this situation now, in line with my highest values… those high values of which I have now reminded myself.” 

This act of reminding was not done by thinking or making them up, but by knowing - which is naturally firmly rooted in my own experiences in the dynamics of the choicesprocess.

Then, your innermost Being (which you have invited to shine its light on this situation) gives you instantly suitable choices.
Because you are now quite calm, in open contact with your consciousness and the Knowing, you’ll be able to notice those high value suggestions for dealing with this situation.
Based on those solid, truthful foundations you choose, in a natural way and with calm enthusiasm, a pattern of behaviour that fits your highest values ​​and serves all you need for this moment.

Of course you can say:

"Hey, but wait a second…… the hot soup, the openness, the honesty ,the respect and clear communication were not in that situation ..... ! Because nobody brought it in, it was missing!
You too have got to see that and understand it! It is obvious.”

Bear with me, because I do not deny this and I do understand the statement.

However, once YOU actively and lovingly remind yourself of the ‘joy’ of hot soup, once you have communicated openly and honestly and clearly with respect to yourself in this situation, then you have energetically inserted into this situation what you find important. Somebody has brought it in – you.
It is a new NOW in that moment, where this knowing is a part of the whole energetic situation.
What you clearly find important is to have acces to your full palette of human choices, to apply the your true colours onto the canvas of this situation.

Even more important than the question whether-you-are-right-or-wrong, or that something is-or-has-been-missing  or you’ve been-done-wrong-by-another, you have tapped into your power about how you can deal with the situation in line with your own highest values and all your needs.

Whether that other person does or doesn’t give you what you would like to receive…
Whether or not that material thing is there …..
You wind yourself up a lot less about it! It is not a life threatening crisis and you know it.

Whether you ARE either….your “ego” or…… your "very essence" has become a largely irrelevant matter too, because the two are comfortably working together as one, as a constructively collective whole, acting for the* best interests.

* Notice how I write here THE best interests and not 'your own personal interests’. "

Your innermost being positively fed your ego, with food of the highest quality ..... joy, attention and opportunities.
Your ego, who has the function to help you develop your identity as a unique human being within the context of the whole collective, has seized an opportunity for sustainable personal growth.

Your unique-me-standing-out-from-the-crowd-ego (the part of you that endeavours to develop a pleasant, unique identity in a way that has benefits for you) has experienced, with this approach, the overall interest is strongly related to his / her / your personal interest. So…… there is no threat the ego has to strongly respond to in it’s characteristic way.

The whole aim of your life is to be (both) a unique human being (and) within the dynamic context of the collective Being.

Both…. peace and…. joyful, in an ever evolving way.

A letter

TO: Google 
CC: the collective consciousness of all people who care to know

Dear reader,

I am asking a couple of minutes of your full attention, to put one suggestion to you.

Would you please consider (seriously) using:

·         your awareness on the importance of ‘access to all relevant up-to-date’ information

·         your available resources,

·         your unique way: clear, straightforward, clean, high quality, high speed and playful

to help mankind raise its awareness all over the world that freedom of choice is exercised most meaningful on a palette of choice that contains more than “either this…. or that….”

I don’t think that concepts need much explanation to specialists in information management.
However, you’ll find my take* on it in a nutshell explained….here.

* I am an international advisor in sustainable community developments, combining expertise in both ‘human interactions’ and ‘ information management’.

I noticed that the 24^th of October is dedicated to be the World Development Information Day, by the United Nations since 1972.

I was wondering if you’d be interested doing something a bit special with that… since, in a way…..the theme is commemorating your core-business, your very raison-d’être in this world: Google’s Joy.

I would like to suggest to give a twist to your daily special of that day, the Doodle, and putting it ‘on’ all over the world.

A twist?
Yes, this particular Doodle will be programmed to highlight the intelligence that is necessary for both the search query results list to be produced (by Google), as well as it being used and interpreted by the user in a meaningful way.

Here is the thought in more detail:

On a normal, everyday search query, Google responds at the speed of light by composing a  comprehensive results list, in order of significance.
The user can then browse through the summaries of web content and pick and choose which websites to delve deeper into.

What if.. 

on this very day….. 

Google seems to be showing.....

in what appears (at first glance) to be a normal result list......

only’ two (!) results:

1.     the ordinary number 1 ranking for that specific search query
(so it is intelligently responding to the user’s request) and

2.     a link to an explanation website on the importance of freedom of choice and the joys, importance and meaning of being able to see and choose from more possibilities than just 2.

Under this interactive doodle-top-bar….. the normal results do still appear. 

Service as usuall.

This is a mock-up image, to give you an idea, what I picture it to be like.

This whole in itself ultra-short experience, repeated millions of times on one single day:

• right in the heart of a normal real every day process, 
• where a person actively desires to see a range of varied options in a search for information
  (and could be tempted to take having free access to such an empowering service for granted….!),  

has the power to raise a lot of awareness on the intelligence involved in making it possible to choose a beautiful life in a sustainable world-community. 

World-peace, world-prosperity, world wellbeing are all highly depending on how humans process storing, retrieving, filtering, interpreting and combining available information and options.

That is what this day is about.
That is what Google is about.
That is what I am about.
That is what this project ‘palette of choice’ is about.

Do you feel invited to play with this suggestion?
I really hope it appeals.

A letter

Dear reader,

Yesterday I started reading the e-book The Female Brain.

With a fascination on how the human MIND* influences the developments within the tribe of mankind, with a special interest in the quality of human interactions and the role the free flow of ‘energy’ plays in all that, I read with great interest chapter 1.

*
The MIND does not equal the brain, in my understanding.
I understand the brain to be the ‘biological hardware’, with the sole purpose to manage  all streams of available information and it is situated in the skull.
I understand the MIND to be the intelligence that is present in every single cell of a living body with the purpose to Manage Information for New Developments.

It was fascinating to read:

• all humans are having what is referred to as a ‘female’-setup on the brain in the first 8 weeks after conception
• the male brains then get marinated in testosterone, which ‘ kills off some cells in the communication centers and grows more cells in the sex and aggression centres’.
• The female brain sprouts more connections in the communication centres and areas that process emotion.
• “ a girl actually incorporates her mother’s nervous system into her own”..
  which is highly influenced by …. ‘current circumstances’

(A story is told of two daughters having been in the same uterus, both under completely different emotional circumstances for the mum. The first harmonious confident and calm, the second fearful about the quality of the relationship. Those daughters had respectively  a harmonious confident and calm outlook on life and a fearful one.
Quote in this paragraph:” Studies in mammals now show that this early stress versus calm incorporation – called epigenetic imprinting – can be passed down through several generations.”)

I found and started reading the book just after I had finished writing a blog post that talked about the development of human beingsin their early years, after birth.

I wrote there, on an understanding that the intelligence of life  doesn’t waste energy and doesn’t ‘wait’, but always does what can be done to develop into the next best ‘thing’:
“How 'more' important to being a human being a skill is, the earlier you'll start with using it... and by using it......training it. Becoming as good as you can be, at it.”

I have to admit, I was a little startled, reading about how the brain get’s already hardwired on the gender differences, so  early on in the development of a new human being.

Even though these hardwired differences between males and females are ‘small’… (the overall setup doesn’t  differ that much between males and females)….., the differences that are ‘ built in’  are hugely influential on human male and female behaviour when it comes to (inter-)acting in a social context: communicating skills and preferences for certain types of actions and contributions to the community.

There I am, writing about ‘human beings’ on what I know ‘human beings’ to be intrinsically capable of.. with a huge faith that all people who chose to, already have got what it take to create a more harmonious life….
only to find that “ I am a typical female , longing for harmony, subtle communication, emotionally fulfilling relationships with strong two-way connections”.

OMG…..is really  the desire and capacity for all-that-I-hold-so-dear destroyed for the most part in half of the population, about 7 months before birth?
Male human beings actually don’t have access to these precious resources within……?
Why would that seem such a good idea in the bigger scheme of human evolution?

There is not much you can ‘ do’ about ‘ the nature of biology’, can you?

If this is ‘ the way things are’, then it may be time to pick myself up, dust myself off and find another mission in life than raising awareness on the full palette of human choices in order to create more harmony in our communities.

But in challenging circumstances, when I observe that what I know seems to be completely the opposite of what is known by others…..I  always wonder, how can this both be true?
Because I know that going into either….. or…. mode, is closing down my MIND for seeing broader understandings, who contain usually more joy.. because it is incorporating all (available) knowing, on what is ‘so’.

Known is in this context specifically to be understood as:
experimented with in many ways and by hands-on- experience confirmed to be so.

When I wonder,  when I open up my palette of choice, apply my knowing onto the new (seemingly contradicting) information I’ve received, I see new blends appear.
Some…. not appealing enough.
Others… are really vibrant new ideas with lots of practical potential, that I think are worth playing with, by applying them on the canvas of life.

This idea that appeared on my palette of choice in my MIND is such a vibrant (exciting me) new idea.

The idea that shows a way on
how ‘ the biology of nature’ can be understood to interact /interrelate with the ‘cultural choices of human beings’.

It is an hypotheses ( not tested, at least not as far as I know)  and it goes like this;

What if…… 

• The essence of: ‘what a person/man needs to know about being a (male) human being in the cultural environment he is living in’, is already conveyed by the main most reliable source of that information, right from the moment of creation?’
• What if that one sperm-cell, that ‘makes it’ to fertilize the egg-cell, does not only contain the biological setup for the human material form, but also contains up-to-date information on the currently used energetical setup, the shape of the energy body?

Sperm cells live about 70 days within the male human being.
Sperm cells  are living entities.
They could very well absorb, just as embryo’s do living in the mother, the information on what the currently used settings are, based on the real latest shared intelligence on that matter on how the male in casu is actually living.
The individual sperm cell  is in touch with what the energetically frame of MIND is in all cells within the body, since it is a part of that energy system. They are aware of it, because they resonate with it, vibrate on the same wavelengths.

With their purpose to create more successful members of the community ( the ultimate dream of an individual sperm cell ;-) )…..wouldn’t it be very intelligent to use (practically apply) this knowledge on what apparently seems to be working best  at the moment on the level of energy investments, the flow of energy-in-motion….. emotions?

Working best?
Well, let’s face it, when a sperm cell merges with an egg-cell:

• under the natural circumstances
  (as explained in any biology book on procreation)
• as preferred to all involved
  ( as explained in any book/song/stage play/film/poem/dance/painting that covers the topic of ‘love’), 

…. it is a very strong indicator that the human male in casu was alive, healthy enough to ‘perform’  (individual success)  and succeeded in connecting to a female, healthy mate who was willing to receive him (which means…..social binding success).

I am deliberately adding ‘ as preferred to all involved’.
There is more to creating  (a good) life than biological mechanics.
I know that technically (in terms of mechanical biology)  a sperm cell can merge with an egg-cell without the informed consent of the mother, when one of the parties involved decides to force his freedom of choice, his desires ….. on the expense of honouring the freedom of choice of another party, involved in the process.
However, as any woman who has ever been raped can tell you, that is not the preferred way of mating for all involved.
However, as any man who has ever been ‘ framed’ into fatherhood by deliberate dishonest actions of a female can state, that is not the preferred way for all involved.
And, as any person, male or female, who has ever been robbed by another human being of his freedom of choice on any issue important to his personal responsibilities and wellbeing can tell you, that is not the preferred way for all involved.

If this line of thought rings on ‘Hmmmm…. that is not beyond the realms of possibility….’,
then I think it is worth investigating further.
Probably by female scientist who have this hardwired longing for discovering and using ways to contribute ‘more harmony’ to our societies. 

Why?
Because we ‘ know’ that harmonious human interplay is possible .
Also, because we are experiencing frustrations that so many of male play-mates ( in the home, at work, in the street, in politics)  seem to be blind and deaf on receiving the obvious signals (to us) that peaceful harmony is being ( structurally) jeopardised.

What does that frustration look like, when put into words?

“Unless we start shouting, kicking and screaming those signals on a large burst of testosterone gushing through our vanes, marinating our verbal and non-verbal communication with it, when investing calmly and lovingly after the natural needs of being in a ( loving, working, living-) relationship doesn’t matter that much to us  anymore (either)…
In those hostile situations where we are really not feeling human, or Being The Best Version Of Ourselves…. (Think PMS outbursts)…. Then, the signal get noticed in the male brain that something is ‘wrong’….. with us.”

Interpreted as ‘”what is wrong with those women……?! On the first sign of discontentment, they explode and force their demands upon us! Pfffff.”

“The first sign??????
Are they out of their MIND?
There has been something wrong between ‘us’ (as a couple, as colleagues, as a community) for a while. The woman has (highly likely) been communicating about it for a long while . She has been dealing with it in all possible ways that she knows that don’t jeopardise the usness, the peaceful nurturing qualities of the relation, to all involved.”

So, if this idea gets investigated and confirmed to have a lot of merit, then it open up ways of using the biology of nature (wisely) to create more harmony in the tribe of mankind.

There is one option  I see, that I’d like to mention in more detail here:

At the moment….women who would like to become a mother, often start using folic acids and make other behavioural changes ( like stop smoking and drinking alcohol) because they know that this behaviour supports the health and wellbeing during pregnancy…. before, during and after, for both themselves as the child.

In that line of thought….. couples who would like to have a baby, may decide to make a few life style alterations too, starting about 2 to 3 months before ‘ trying for real’.
Suggestions I can come up with, based on my experience and many studies (footnote 1) to ‘things that impact the healthy alignment in your energy-household’

• Reduce the amount of screen time ( t.v., smartphones, computers) drastically…. to: less than 4 hours a day!
• Reduce the amount of ‘stuff’/ ‘clutter’ in your house. Make the physical (and emotional space) clean for the (new) life, by removing what you don’t need anymore. (Gently, cautiously, respecting freedom of choice and each other’s (emotional) attachments to certain belongings)
• Add more ‘ joy’ in the mix of your days, both having some time invested in things you like doing on your own, dipping into you individual likes, as well as engaging regularly in activities you enjoy doing together.  Every day at least a tea spoon full.
• Add more and more- frequently down-time into your days. ( If you can… in nature)
• Have a five minute break of doing nothing between two activities. Taking nothing in ( no food, no drink, no information)  and giving nothing out ( no service rendered, not attention given to anything in the outside world)….. is not doing nothing.. 
• it is your MIND refreshing… transformation time..  storing impressions correctly away, feeling into the current field of circumstances, needs and desires, coming up with a coherent ‘plan’ on what to do next.

(Note: Like stopping with smoking and drinking alcohol is not only a good idea for people who want to have children….. also this list of behavioural changes is a good idea for ‘most people’ to enjoy a better health and higher degrees of wellbeing.
It is simply that the desire of bringing a healthy baby into this world after a smooth pregnancy, may just be the powerful incentive you need to stick to the ‘ stopping’ when any inconvenient side-effects off overcoming an addiction come to pass…)

What do I expect to happen, when people apply these suggestions, based on my experience?

The energetical setup of both mother and father will calm down and re-integrate the various parts.

All the chakra’s (energy centre’s) will align to a much more harmonious state, connect to each other.
The MIND will calm down as a result of this.
All body cells, wired to resonate with the current state of MIND, will respond to this calmer, more harmonious state of being a human being, knowing that to be both individually as well as socially.

That means, not only the egg-cell(s ) of the month ripens resonating on this make-up, but all dormant egg-cells will be marinated in these vibes too. ( A woman carries all her egg-cells in dormant state all her life with her… in a way: they experience everything that  she experiences)

It means also that not only the sperm-cells created today, will store that message for 70 days when still contained in the fathers body. But also the sperm-cell producing centre’s will accumulate the knowing that this is not a ‘ one day fly, a hype that fades away, an exception in human behaviour’, but will experience this to be a real structural part of what it means to be a joyful, successful human being.

Not only will the individuals see an improvement in the quality of their individual life ( yes, there may be some cold-turkey side-effects from laying off energetically unsound habits…. most last only three days), but also in the quality of their love-life and their community life.

Will that alter the hard-wiring of the father and/or the mother?
Probably, over time, yes…. the human brain is capably of making new neurological pathways, also in the adult life stages.

Will it alter the hard-wiring of the unborn child’s brain?
My guess would be, yes.
Both the male's and the female's hard-wiring developing process will be different.

Why?
My guess would be that the need to destroy parts of the co-creative human nature (very early on, long before it is outwardly tangible) , I favour of re-directing energy to the parts that force your creative desires into other’s lives, in ‘order for the specimen/species to survive’, becomes re-evaluated and … eventually redundant.

How to survive an internal war within the same tribe (between opposing yin and yang energies within a person) as a question of existential important gets replaced by How to live  within the same tribe?
Based on an experienced knowledge that both yin –and yang energies are meant to be alive together, having (many) interrelated purpose (s)  and ways to express themselves, in harmony.

The need to survive (your culture), get’s incorporated in the more fundamental meta-physical natural need to know what it means to be alive…

Please note when you observe (rightly!)  that this is an important matter where survival ( individually as well as  ‘your tribe’) is at stake here:
You cannot be alive, without surviving. … so the increased chance of surviving comes automatically with the increase of healthy sustainable (peaceful) aliveness…
( While on the other hand, it is very well possible to exist, without actually experiencing living, as in being fully alive. )

Please ask yourself in the process of interpreating this suggestion…..
 “How great is surviving, without actually knowing (experiencing)  what it means to be fully alive?)”

Always happy to share more thoughts on this idea, on request.
For now, I think this will to, to add this options onto the palette of choice and on the canvas of life.

P.S. If you have found this blog post interesting.....
You might also be interested in reading another blog post that was inspired by the very same Female Brain book.
You'll find it here.

Footnote 1:

I can fully recommend reading this book.
Writer and blogger Tammy Strobel describes very clearly and with a passion about the benefits of applying (herself!) all these suggestions as mentioned above.

This is NOT one of those ' instant success guaranteed, simply do as you're told here' type of book.

This book is clearly writen by an author who honours freedom of choice for all involved in a life changing process of major significance.
She is not 'blind' to the (social) obstacles anyone who is engaging with this is likely to encounter along the way.
She decribes in fair detail, what she experienced on that score and...... shares many ideas she has gathered asking around in her network of like-minded people... .
Not ' like' minded, as in Facebook ' like' but not do anything about it......
People who took the plunge and gained hands-on-experience and where willing to make their experience available to the others to. To play with 'as is', or customized and finetuned tailored to the occurances and unique details of your own situation.

It also contains a good number of references to 'her sources' in the back delve into more in depth material.

Thank you Tammy Strobel for sharing your experiences with the world in wrtiting!
