Next IONS MEETING: Tuesday, August 14-- Crystal Skulls - Are we talking Indiana Jones, Mayan mysticism or modern mystery?

Next IONS Bookclub: The Bond, By Lynn McTaggert. Date, TBD
meetingIONS MEETING: Tuesday, August 14, 7 pm - 8:30 pm at breathe books

Guest speaker: Nancy Fox with Sam-U-El

 

Every once in a while, you may hear someone gush with an inexplicable reverence for crystal skulls. As if pendulum dowsing, healing stones, sage smudging, sacred drumming and the Mayan calendar musing were not enough, now they are introducing another oddity, usually without explanation. It is just assumed that you know the powerful transformational potential, the amazing communication with other intelligences, or the healing power of something that you actually have never heard about outside of the most recent Indiana Jones film.

Well...at IONS we are about explaining things and also about experiencing them before we actually consider broadcasting their benefits.

 

This month's meeting offers members a Sam-U-EL chance to observe a crystal skull first hand and, as a group, to experience any outcomes associated with it.

 

The human accompanying the skull is Nancy Fox. The pale citrine, carved stone skull that she stewards is named Sam-U-El. Nancy is a practicing psychic. I had a reading with her in the presence of Sam-U-El a few weeks ago and she shared a few remarkable predictions - one had been given to me by another psychic a year ago!

I am not sure if crystal skulls are a medium of communication like a walkie talkie, if they serve as a touchstone or catalyst for psychic phenomena that would happen anyway, or if they are physical link to a being or consciousness that lies in a realm outside our typical senses. I do know that the experience was worth the time and I'll join you at the next IONS meeting to see what happens.

For centuries, Western science and many Western cultures have taught us to think of ourselves as individuals. But today, a revolutionary new understanding is emerging from the laboratories of the most cutting-edge physicists, biologists, and psychologists:

 

What matters is not the isolated entity, but the space between things, the relationship of things. The Bond.

 

By international bestselling author Lynne McTaggart, The Bond is the culmination of her groundbreaking work. It offers a Lynn McTaggart completely new, scientific story of life and the human experience, one that challenges the very way we conceive of ourselves and our world. The Bond shows that the essential impulse of all life is a will to connect rather than a drive to compete.

 

In fact, we are inescapably connected, hardwired to each other at our most elemental level-from cells to whole societies. The Bond The desire to help others is so necessary that we experience it as one of our chief pleasures, as essential as eating and having sex, and we succeed and prosper only when we see ourselves as part of a greater whole. Every conflict that occurs-whether between husband and wife, social or racial groups, or nations-is resolved only when we can fully see and embrace the space-the bond-between us.

 

McTaggart offers detailed recommendations to help foster more holistic thinking, more cooperative relationships, and more unified social groups. Blending interviews and human stories into an absorbing narrative, she shows how:

 

* A simple daily practice conditions the brain to enable you to become more empathetic toward others.

* A new way of speaking and listening can overcome polarization, helping the staunchest of enemies to become close friends.  

* People who fire together wire together: Whenever a group works together for a common goal, the brains of all parties begin to get on the same wavelength, strengthening the bond within the group.

* Fairness is more powerful than unfairness: A small group of individuals committed to strong reciprocity can "invade" a population of self-interested individuals and create a fairer society.
