I Have (Not a “DREAM”… But)
the Father’s “VISION”
Sealed
in
My Mind
(WARNING: This post is bound to disturb and haunt you.)
Monday, January
16, 2017 marks the celebration of the USA’s “Civil Rights’ Day.” As part of the festivities, Martin Luther
King Jr.’s public “I Have a Dream” speech will be referred to, quoted and opined. MLK is known as an “American civil rights
activist” who, during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on August
28, 1963, called for an end to racism in the United States and called for civil
and economic rights. This speech was originally delivered to over 250,000 civil
rights supporters from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.,
and is known as representing a defining moment of the American Civil Rights
Movement. (Thank you for the fore-going,
WIKI.) Frequently, no matter the day or
time of year, people will refer to the words “I have a dream” and be alluding
to MLK’s proffered thoughts.
I, however, have
more than *a dream.* I have an ever-present *vision* which has seared itself
within my CONSCIOUS awareness and haunts every decision I make, every thought I
think, every feeling I have.
This post is an
attempt to assist any reader to gain understanding into HOW I utilize my
unique-to-humans-ability to *Imagine*.
And, perhaps, expand their own interest in, perception of, and ability
to utilize their mental sinews in a similar manner. It is my hope that enough of us joined
together as “one mind” and utilizing our brains in a sharp, consistent, unified
manner… powered by pure hearts… WILL bring about the realization of my singular
*vision.*
Literally,
the picture which is sealed in my mind is:
I see trees of green, red roses
too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of
white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so
pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you
I hear babies laugh,* I watch them
grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world

Although deeply buried from most
people’s memories, our very first experiences established an emotional
foundation for the rest of our existence. This emotional foundation
occurs long before one’s initial mortal infancy, yet directs and influences
every moment of our life. When our
current environment presents something out of line with our nascent emotions,
we sense an inner angst. As we mature
physically and interact with others along our life’s journey, we usually learn
to react to this angst in ways similar to the most influential adults in our
environment. We adapt negative responses
of anger, frustration, depression, and unhappiness to
replace the void of the positive emotions of our pre-mortal past. Thus, like the frustrated man who smashes his
car’s blinking “check engine” light, we seem to have a temporary reprieve from
this warning light within.
These feelings and reactions, though
appearing appropriate because those around us utilize them, establish habits
which become character which continues to influence, not only our self, but
everyone else in the world… whether we ever personally interact with them or
not. Likewise, every other individual
who has ever lived is currently affecting our present experience. Truly, the world has changed us. And we are changing it.
Yet, even as adults, we have not
forgotten what gentleness is, what kindness is, what love, security, and
unconditional self-worth are. Our minds will forever compare our
current experiences with its initial pre-mortal foundational alignment.
Because we experienced it once, we
know deep inside that it is real and possible. It is because of this
alignment that we feel that it must be possible
for a world to exist where we are cared for, valued above all others, and
in which we are provided security and everything else that we need to
survive without being codependent for these needs. But the improbability of
experiencing as an adult what we did as an infant is high. For many,
contrasting experiences are the only ones they will ever know. This fact does not, however, stop us
from feeling the hope that continually affects our
emotions. When what we hope for is realized, we are
happy. When what we know is possible becomes improbable, we are unhappy.
If
you will, join with me in using our combined imaginations:
Imagine that we finally develop and
live in a perfect human world. Although improbable with the current forms
of governments and socioeconomic systems we allow to control our lives, it is
not impossible to imagine that we can accomplish this goal as a unified human
race. It is not impossible to imagine a perfect world. In fact, it
is what we hope for, that which we feel can be possible in spite of the
improbabilities that seem to be part of our present experience.
In my vision, not only is nature pristine
and babies laugh, but I enjoy as much interaction with others as I choose and
this interaction contributes to my preferred emotional state. Although a “society” is the existence of a
group of human beings interacting with each other, a “sociality” is the way
that people socialize and interact with each other. A perfect world is where
human beings are treated and treat other humans in such a way (sociality) that
there exists joy. And, in my ever-present vision, this joy is coupled
with eternal glory, or rather, the real truth of each and every person, place
or thing. In my mind, my eternal *vision,* we interact with JOY and real
truth, living in complete congruence and without enmity to who we were
foundationalized to be. The only way to
promulgate this degree of sociality is for each individual to interact always
in ways that give, not praise to another’s ears, but peace to another’s heart...
for the long term. In this type of
sociality, each human, each moment, with every thought, feeling, and action,
lives in deep and complete honesty and integrity with their innermost
alignment. There is no hypocrisy. No justification of actions. There is no need
for either of these. The mind is a pure vessel for divine
thought. The heart is a pure vessel for
ecstatic joy. And, because each and
every individual human in this pristine environment is, thusly, living humanely
and in harmony, all of nature and each other human is alive and mutually
enlivened. The rewards are, thus,
internal and everlasting.

In my previous
blog post, I left any dedicated reader in the midst of a story. I had just been
bailed out of jail by Dave. Although
many have asked for “the rest of the story,” I have felt restrained until I
knew just where that story was going. I
had to live it first, at least far enough along so that I could offer some
finalization to that particular sub-plot.
I have learned and experienced much since then. Even now, though I clearly see the “end,” I
do not have a clear vision of the intermediary steps. Nevertheless, I have walked each step like
each step before, with a steady and firm reliance on the “Powers that Be” who
make Themselves known within me. Though
I would love to see more of the intervening tunnel taking me through my present
situation and to my known and seared-in-vision, I deeply trust that the
intermediary steps are lit up as far in advance as “They” deem necessary. Truly, I have “sufficient for my needs” this
and each and every moment… even in the fore-knowledge department.
Yes, I am not the
first to have gone through similar mis-placed suspicions and judgments while
living among mortals. WHY??? Because I, and those like me, are mis-fits, “aliens”. We long for and belong to the “True Order of
God” and conduct ourselves as benefitting the good of all, as the servants we
are. Indeed, we offend often even as we
seek to uplift and serve, primarily because we are not understood by those
conditioned to mortal rules and mores.
We think differently. We have
different desires in our hearts, a different vision in the forefront of our
minds. We live true to who we truly are,
who we were foundationalized to be before entering this brutal, brutish,
hypocritical world.
Because I am
living TRUE to WHO I AM, and WHO I AM offends many… including these individuals,
I am known, as the one commonly known as “Jesus”, as a “Rock of Offense.” Yet, even he was attributed to say, “I come,
not to bring peace but a sword.”
So, as a thinking
reader, you are probably wondering, “If you, Kimberly, are so diligent and
desirous of establishing and living within the sociality that you have expressed,
why, then, would your present experience seem to indicate otherwise?”
The same reason
why “Jesus said ‘love everyone, treat
them kindly, too. When your heart is
filled with love, others will love you’” (this is a well-known song, taught to
Latter-day Saint young children). And yet, he was crucified!!! You see, many mis-believe that “when your
heart is filled with love others will love you.” That is not the case in this temporary
world. In this world, when your heart is
filled to any degree with a counterfeit
type of love, one befitting this present existence, THEN… and only then… may it
be received as acceptable and worthy of “others will love you.”
The only way to
understand this is with eternal perspective.
If one wishes to be an “honorable man or woman of this world” then that one (think of a Mother Teresa) might find
peace in applying bandages and assisting the dying. As much as I personally respect Mother Teresa
and all others who wear out their lives in similar manner, this is not enough
for me. Thus, she receives “Sainthood”,
while my name has largely been spurned and derided, misunderstood. I want to apply, not bandages, but sufficient
and pure hope. My words
are my sword. My intention is that lives
will be re-enlivened, sociality will be revitalized. The real truth for each and every individual
will infuse them with the life-giving vision so that they will then join with
me in drawing ever closer to our shared glorious end.
Can I do
that? Can I do that now? With words?
I will try.
Let’s start with
the basics. Here are the CORRECT
definitions for words and terms that many banter back and forth, having no clue
what the REAL TRUTH is behind these obscure sayings. Start by reading “scripture” and replacing
the “religious words” that are bolded, with those in underlined italics.
Replace Satan, Lucifer, the devil with "mortal human nature." Satan is the action or what an individual
does for their own individual benefit.
Lucifer is the way an individual thinks when he’s wanting his own
individual best interests. Likewise, the
Devil is how a person feels when he’s thinking and acting for himself.
Replace God,
the Lord, Heavenly Father with “our
conscious, humane humanity” (i.e., what we all know is good and right.
Replace God,
the Father, your true self, higher self, god, with your advanced self’s emotional
alignment or whole and
complete spirit (Holy Ghost),
JOY.
Replace Enmity with our feelings which represent the joy to misery
continuum; our conscience; our true
self.
Replace Saints of God with those
who wait patiently for “the One anointed to bring peace to this planet” to
return and do so. They have vigilantly sought for and
implanted the “seal of God in their foreheads.” These “saints” understand the will of the
Father, as it is forefront in all
their thoughts. They ridicule
and judge none, worship none, fear none, and are unaffected by the vicissitudes
created by the monetary system. (How many who call themselves
Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Islamics, ‘Latter Day Saints’, Atheists,
Agnostics, etc. TRULY fit this correct profile?)
Replace Angels of God with those
who likewise have the “seal of God in their foreheads” but have additionally chosen
to give their own lives, their own capabilities to bring forth this
paradisiacal state. They have felt the
inner “call” of their purified heart and have responded, or rather, “elected”
to follow wherever it may lead.
(Thus, in religious terms, their “Calling and Election” has been made
sure.) They risk all they are, all they ever could hope to individually be
to become an amalgamated part of “the One Anointed to bring peace to this
planet.” These are the “Venus Women” allegorically spoken
of.
Replace female, feminine, woman (literally,
meaning “womb-man”) with a human who
has a heart, a “womb of the spirit,” that is capable of feeling DEEPLY because,
through vast experience, it has been broken open, spiritually “circumcised.” She represents a true “gentle” man. Of either gender. These are they who “shall
inherit the earth”. These are the “meek”
and gentle, seeking not that which benefits themselves at the expense of all
others. They have become truly humane. The earth is the bridge between Venus women
and Mars men, the probationary experience where those mortals who are
developing a conscience and have evolved through the animal kingdom are “let
out of their (spirit) prison” on a probationary status to see what they will do
with the capacity to imagine and think.
Will they utilize these abilities to project and interact with good will
towards all? If so, they will develop
into spiritual women. The ability to
*imagine* and *think* are ONLY carried out correctly by these women… because
they first and foremost engage their purified hearts and have established “the
seal of the Father in their foreheads.” These
are they who “come down through the clouds” with “Jesus Christ” at his “Second
Coming”.
And the “Second Coming” can better be understood
as the end result of humanity’s
experience. The earth is again in
the same state as it was in the beginning:
Peace. Harmony. Purity.
Humane Behavior from All, for all.
Always. The “Second Coming of
Jesus Christ” is global humanity.
The heart (womb) is capable of being impregnated by emotion to various
degrees. The greatest and most desirable
emotion… indeed the “grand prize” of successfully completing mortality… is joy,
the WHOLE (entire, Holy) Spirit. After
sufficient incubation of this degree of pure emotion (JOY), a new creature has
come into being. (Think of the drastic
change many mortals exhibit after a “near death experience.”) Mary
(meaning “bitter”) is symbolic for one who utilizes sufficient hope and spends
“40 days in the wilderness” (or as long as it takes to extricate her former
desires and habits) and has, thus, gone through purification of her former
beliefs, desires and actions—“conceives by the Holy Spirit (Ghost as it is an
enigma, unseen) and brings forth a new life, deserving a new name.
Replace Christ with hope, real truth.
And hope is best defined as that
which we feel can be possible in spite of the improbabilities that seem to be
part of our present experience.
Thus, Christ is a feeling, the
highest vibration possible; one of rejoicing in exceeding gladness, no matter
the current sensory input. This
feeling is the real truth of one’s
being. This feeling (a.k.a light, intelligence, spirit, energy)
is the “father” or creator of your current “fallen” state… only because it
chose to forget its higher octave of existence to become… temporarily (and thus,
temporal, carnal, fallen)… *you*.
And the “real
truth” of WHY YOU EXIST is so that you can develop to the place of experiencing
(ONLY) JOY. JOY is only possible after emotional maturity has been achieved… in
the physical body. Truly, you are a “spiritual being having a physical
experience.” Emotional maturity, uniting the spiritual and physical, is only
achieved (like all maturity) when the growth and developmental sequences have
taken place with proper and adequate (emotional) nutrients all along the
way. These emotional nutrients are the
neurotransmitters oxytocin and serotonin.
These brain chemicals are manufactured and released when humans are
humane and involved in activities which unite and bond them with another or
others. Upon release of these chemicals,
the experience is recorded in memory as part of their emotional foundational
experience. Most individuals currently on
this planet are FAR from emotionally mature.
Indeed, there exists a false sense of maturity. Just because a person looks in the mirror (or
is perceived by others) and sees “age”, OR has a substantial bank account/
diploma/ oversees control over many others, or the like, does NOT mean they
have “matured” emotionally. In fact,
those very features generally prohibit one from exemplifying emotional
maturity. JOY is impossible except for
those who have gone through and successfully completed their spiritual
training.
Replace Sex with a sharing of genetic information. Thus, sex can occur through physical intimacy
and sharing of bodily fluids. However,
far more common is the sexual interchange which takes place when exchanging
ideas through written or verbal communication.
Any time a proffered idea holds sway over our former understanding,
bringing a greater degree of hope and increase in life, sex has taken
place. Why? Because the very genetic material, the DNA,
changes to allow this enhanced upgrade.
A new creature, even if only slightly more alive, is the result. Only these humane and service-oriented
individuals will be taught the principles for “eternal life” AND have the
bodies commensurate for living that life.
And only those who have power over others’ existence, including
creating them and teaching them correct, foundational human premises,
deserve the reward that all people desire... sexual abilities for all eternity. (As the reader reads further, reflect upon
this revealed definition of “sex” in conjunction with Mary and her conception
of the Son.)
Understand Joy as the result of a
human action meeting the expectation of a human thought when there exists the
possibility that the expectation might not be met. (Re-read
this many times and think about it! It’s vital to understanding the
difference between humans and other forms of matter.) Again, the joy comes from knowing what we
expect from an experience, but not knowing how the experience is
going to end, and then having the experience end how we expected it to
end. The fullest extent of joy is only
possible when it is the result of enhancing global harmony.
We would find no joy in experiencing
something that we have already experienced time and time and time and time …
into infinity … again. The things that bring us joy is the unexpected,
the experience of things that we’ve never experienced before; that we didn’t
see coming. And the only way these experiences can take place is if there
are other life forms in our environment that can do things that are unexpected
and unknown to us. Humans are that they might experience joy.
We have a thought. That thought
elicits a desire for positive benefit (expectation). We choose to act upon that thought and
desire. When there is a match in
expectation outcome, the result is Joy.
Replace commandments with the
prompted feelings and ideas offered by a pure heart and mind whose real intent
is humane action and doing that which is good for all equally.
Replace sin with any action
(including thoughts) which detract from one’s joy. Sin
is “committed” by by-passing one’s “alarm system”, their feelings of angst,
etc. and not choosing the humane prompting that would have been offered if that
one had not chosen to be “past feeling.” ALL sin [moral decisions] will
be forgiven, except “denying the Holy
Ghost,” which is actually the side
of your brain that is all you, that you have not let others invade and
occupy.
Replace civil with emotionally mature, gentle, humane, seeking the long-term benefit of
each and every one.
Replace
happiness with the
feelings that we receive when we work righteousness,
or rather, being actively engaged in doing good things, and feeling joy. Happiness suggests we feel an emotional
alignment, a balance. And unhappiness as enmity, or the feelings that we receive when we do evil. When we are miserable, there is an absence of
joy. In other words, this enmity or
unhappiness is our conscience speaking.
Thus, happiness and evil are opposite ends of the spectrum. We are either doing things in alignment with
our level of humanity—“happy”, or doing otherwise—evil. The “reward” for these actions is either
“joy” or “misery.”
Replace
dream with a series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person's
mind during sleep or reduced consciousness. And consciousness
as the degree of conscience, enmity,
feeling one is capable of. Alertness. Ability to understand the reality of life. When an individual has low-levels of
consciousness, no matter how awake they may seem or believe themselves to be,
they are nothing more than “zombies,” “robotic human look-alikes,” suffering
from hallucinations and interacting with others as in a fantasy.
Replace
“Seal of the Father in one’s forehead”
with the vision of global camaraderie,
pristine wholeness and JOY. That which
we each, connected via our hearts into One Humane Being see within our mind’s eye. Figuratively speaking, we think and
understand in our “foreheads.” When
people receive the “seal of God in their foreheads,” they are thinking,
perceiving, and understanding the truths of God properly, thus reacting to
their cognitive processes with righteous works.
Replace meek with being willing to subdue one’s individual
needs and desires for those which are of the good of all and lowly in heart with NOT sad or depressed. To be lowly in heart indicates that a person is capable of feeling deeply. Their heart has been “circumcised”, meaning the
emotional shell has been broken open and they interact with others from a place
of humanity and brotherly love. They
have experienced and learned much through heart-break and have dug down deep to
excavate a vessel worthy of being filled with much feeling: JOY on the one end of the pole and MISERY on
the other.
Replace virgin with a female (again, remember that
scripturally, gender applies to the state of the spirit, NOT the physical body)
who has had Jesus Christ (Real
Truth) cast out “seven devils” or counterfeit characteristics from “her”
nature. She is no longer “adulterated”
but has become “pure” and lives from a constant state of humanity as dictated
by her virtuous heart and its emotional maturity.
Okay now. With the establishment of an entirely new
“dictionary,” let’s get down to some fun business! J
My intent with the unveiling of these definitions has been to show the
dedicated reader how she might be able to open up some of the symbolic language
and allegories purposefully hidden from the casual reader of scripture. Additionally, it is to examine that there is
NO Religion, NO Government, No organized entity that has the power to bring
about world peace except and unless it comes from individual humane
hearts. Those hearts then can, and must,
join together… with only the purest of intentions and transparency of funds… to
establish harmony.
Yes, This is my
vision. Global harmony.
Well was it said:
“Come
unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take
my yoke upon you, (pull
the same load “I” pull)
and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your
souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden (that which is carried) is light. (Matthew 11:27–30)
And just WHO is the “I”/ “me”/ “my” speaking in this scripture? Jesus Christ, or better, the REAL TRUTH of
Who YOU Are.
Let’s take another scriptural passage,
again commonly misunderstood. See what
you can do with these new definitions.
Only with pure intent will the Real Truth open up for you.
And the angel said to her, "Do not be
afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive
in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. He will be
great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give
to him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of
Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there will be no end."
And Mary said to the angel, "How shall
this be, since I have no husband?" And the angel said to her, "The Holy
Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you;
therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. And behold,
your kinswoman Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is
the sixth month with her who was called barren. For with God nothing will be
impossible."
Did you get it? Re-read it.
Over and over. Again, with a
broken-open heart and with pure intent.
See who You are!
Devote yourselves to seeing and
feeling the grandeur of WHO YOU ARE. As
you live in this constant state with your consciousness continually expanding,
you will be so in harmony with your true nature that power will flow mightily
into your life. Not “power” as the
mortal world currently defines it, but pure
power, intelligence, the wisdom to
interact appropriately at all times and in all places.
Although you, like all others, learned
early on to adopt patterns and behaviors that conformed more to those mortals
around you than to your earliest pure feelings established in our nascent
environment, thus aging into an adult without emotionally maturing beyond our
infancy, you CAN reverse this process… and its effects. We bring the
future and past together in the present when we have “no guard up” but have
“open hearts and minds”, living in the now yet with the wisdom of the past and
the pure vision of the future.
Although “Satan” hath been given power
to bruise our heels all the days of our (mortal) lives, when we finally come to
an understanding of the righteousness of the Father and the commandments that
he hath given unto us; then shall we have power to crush the head of Satan, or
in other words, destroy his kingdom with righteousness. (When we act contrary to our humanity, our
feet are symbolically dirtied or wounded.
Thus, Jesus washing his disciples’ feet indicates they are taught how to
act in concert with humane principles.
Their feet then carry them to places… and actions… of peace.)
~~~
NOW…
For those who have found their way to
and through the “Marvelous Work and a Wonder”, here are a couple of the
“prophecies” made concerning me and my role:
“Oh,
blessed day when some unselfish “wise one” shows up with the technology, the
means, and the desire to not want to make a profit off of providing the human
race with life, liberty, and most importantly…
…the
pursuit of happiness.
That
type of person surely can’t be from this planet!”

“More
than likely, Kimberly Wallis will be the one appointed to watch over the funds
of the WMF*, (though she might not know it yet J ) so it is to her that those will be
directed who want to get involved financially in that foundation.”
~~~
*WMF
“Widow’s Mite Foundation,” more recently known as the Worldwide United
Foundation, but now christened “Harmony House.”
The
following is taken from my blog post of March 10, 2009 while in Ecuador:
Saturday, Krystal and I got up very early and
started out with Luis and his family via their car. Partway to Puerto Quito,
traffic was stalled because of a landslide. Huge boulders and piles of mud filled
the road. As we waited for it to be cleared by the tractors and crew, Marcela,
Luis’ wife, commented that they had been inundated by an inordinate amount of
rain over the last few months. Interesting! (Right about the time I had found
The Sealed Portion there was unprecedented flooding very near my house in Santa
Clara, Utah… Hmmmm.)
Arriving at Puerto Quito, Luis took care of his business there at the school
site and then realized that his brakes were broken on the car. While he worked
on the car, the others of us walked up and down the main street of town. Groups
of pre-teen homeless boys, like swarms of bees, molested the local shopkeepers,
kicking at their metal doors and otherwise making their lives, obviously,
frustrated. I thought of my own Spencer (12) and Parker (10) and realized that
it could easily be “them” in this situation if it were reversed.
After fixing the car and quite a lengthy investigation, Luis was able to find
the name and whereabouts of the English teacher. When we found his house, both
he and his wife, Miriam, happened to be home and graciously invited us in. As
Marcela needed to be back to work in Quito that evening, we just had a short
amount of time to visit. I gave them my copy in English of the prospectus I had
prepared of Harmony House. Bolivar read through it and asked questions (in his
halting English) while his wife gleaned what she could. Excitedly, she called
the “Governor” of the province and was able to get me a spur-of-the-moment
meeting with her.
When we arrived at the governor’s office, I was sweaty and “glistening” from
the high humidity and dressed in Capri pants and a white T-shirt, my hair
pulled back in a pony tail—not how one would typically dress for the occasion,
but I’m sure it was all perfect. I was at peace.
As we waited a few minutes, Bolivar seemed to proceed to attempt to “sell” me
on why Puerto Quito needed Harmony House more than any other place in Ecuador.
(Although my heart filled with the disparity of the situation of so many young,
needy children—as well as adults, I was beaming inside that I might have just
found the match between my burning desire and others’ needs being fulfilled!)
When the Governor came, I was introduced and then the three of them, Luis,
Bolivar and Miriam presented my heart’s vision—at least I believe they did, as
it was all done in Spanish and I only understood bits and pieces. They waited
after asking me if I knew the meaning of her name “Narciza” (“the attribute of
the human psyche characterized by a great amount of admiration of oneself; self
love”—I had to look it up to be sure after I had gotten home :-)). Not
remembering the exact definition, still I responded that with that name, she
must be perfect for her job. :-)
As they commenced talking about Harmony House,
it was obvious that Narciza was only partially interested and had a great many
things weighing on her mind as she proceeded to open and read her mail.
Occasionally she would ask questions or make comments. Although I have gotten
somewhat capable of understanding spoken Spanish, I have never heard anyone
speak as rapidly as she did and therefore, could glean very little from her
words.
Narciza seemed greatly intrigued that someone (me) from the United States would
come to her country and desire to truly help. I realized that she was focused
on the “milliones” of dollars that it would require to facilitate my plan and
she emphatically presented that they had no money to offer, though they could
donate land. I interceded as best I could that “the focus is NOT on the money,
but on the hearts and the hands of willing people.” I told her that I believe
that everyone in the world has a beautiful heart, although some seem tightly
closed at the present. There are a great many that see the grave situation of
the present world and would like to help, but few have the proper vision of how
to go about this.
I shared my belief that there are many people who could help in some way (large
or small), and though some considered me “loco”, we each needed to proceed in
our own unique way, even if not understood by others. One might have a box of
left-over tile from a building project. Another may be moving to a smaller home
and have children’s books, musical instruments, clothes, furniture or other
materials that would be helpful to donate to the children. Another may have a
great desire to manually work, thereby dedicating a month/ summer/ retirement/
rest of their life to building up and maintaining the facility or helping
“parent” the children. Another may have money to donate but no interest or
ability to directly help. Another might want to personally volunteer, but not
have the money to get here. Yet another may have great organizing abilities to
oversee the volunteers, etc. etc. I shared that this project, I believe, was one
that was greatly needed by all the people in the world and that this first one
would serve as a prototype for others and that, I believe, Harmony Houses will
dot the globe some day.
Especially considering the current economic situation of the United States and
the rest of the world, it is highly likely that this project will end up
benefitting many people that never would have imagined themselves involved—or
their children or grandchildren.
Not only that, but I have already met many people right here in Ecuador that
have expressed interest in helping with this project, again, each in their own
unique way.
Harmony House will be mostly self-sustaining in that most of the food will be
produced on site through the fruit trees and gardens grown and tended there.
Where possible, the power, sewage and water will be as efficient, even
self-sufficient, as possible. Also, the children will be taught all the basic
skills (at least to some degree) of running the community, such as gardening,
maintaining the facilities, cleaning, helping to prepare the basic meals,
caring for the clothes, etc. Depending on their interests and desires, they
will be able to have further, more intensive training in any of these areas.
Lighthouse Academy, the sister component of
Harmony House, is the name of the type of education that will be in place at
Harmony House. In this system, the curriculum is largely determined by the
child’s heart. Literature, reading, writing, arithmetic, music will all be
taught utilizing “the classics” but the GREATEST classic for each child will be
the “book” they “write” through their own experiences. There will be much
freedom during the day to pursue their individual desires and become proficient
in the areas of their choosing. This will be done through mentoring, individual
study, group projects, or in other ways determined by their area of interest
and in consultation with their educational advisors.
Because of time constraints and language impediments, I did not completely
“flesh out” the Harmony House concept in our brief (probably 20 minute)
meeting—nor will I here. However, I truly see Harmony House as a powerful way
to mend the world, through the hearts and hands of those willing to help.
Not only will the children be raised to live healthy, empowered, Joy-filled
lives that benefit many others as well, but the outlying community itself will
be blessed. Yes, there will be less and less “swarms” of molesting or haunting
street children, but the effect will be much greater than that. Unlike any
other program, Harmony House is not a barricaded structure but instead depends
upon interaction with others.
The principles taught and lived at Harmony House are those that I have
discovered and implemented in my own life and with my own children. They are
the ones that created apparent miracles in the lives of the children in my
preschool in the States and that have created rippling out effects from those
who have attended my seminars. They are the very same principles that I have
earnestly sought (and found) and been writing about in my books. Yet they are
more pure and feasible now, because of my experiences. These principles are all
about respecting all others (and HOW to do that) while living happy, empowered,
healthy lives.
Only those with a
degree of understanding and a desire to master these principles will be allowed
to interact with the children within Harmony House. I believe that we will see
similar results: physical bodies as well as emotions will be healed, intellect
and creativity unseen before will be unleashed, and a peace and Joy will be
found within each heart and, thus, within the collective interaction of all
those living and helping there.
Although in no way opulent, Harmony House will be built, run and maintained
with a high quality of workmanship and materials. The flower-graced lawns and
the attention to detail of each structure will all echo the theme of respect
and beautiful harmony. Music and laughter, learning and creativity will sing
through the interactions allowed and encouraged by the setting.
People from all over the world who agree to the principles of H.H. (all hinging
on a correct understanding and living of the “Golden Rule”), who have a craft
or interest to share, will serve as “mentors” for the children who have similar
interests. Those from the nearby communities will be invited to participate in
periodic concerts and art shows or other “performances” where the children will
perform and sell through “admission” and individual transactions the pieces
they have been working/learning on. In this way, they will gain a sense of
pride in their accomplishments, gain “feedback” from others, prepare for their
future, as well as earn spending (or saving) money that they might choose to
utilize for desired “things” (such as chocolate bars, iPods, things not
considered “basic necessities” and provided by H.H.). By the time of maturity,
these children will be prepared to enter out into the greater community as a
true, whole, healed, happy, productive adult, ready to pursue an occupation of
their passion and training as well as continue to interact in productive,
empowering ways.
Plato said it best, "At the touch of love...everyone becomes a poet."
As our short discussion went on, with me mostly listening to the others, I
watched as the Governor’s composure visibly relaxed and her countenance
brightened. I will meet again with Narciza in a couple weeks to share the
concept further, but…she enthusiastically agreed to donate 30 hectares
(74 acres) to Harmony House—and we will begin in May. We parted with
the warm hug of sisters.
In the parking lot, Miriam asked the ages that I would be interested in
helping. I responded from birth to 18—or maturity. Surprised, she volunteered
that her job is working with the homeless infants of the area and that there
are over 1500 homeless orphans between the ages of 0-5 years old (usually sick
and needy) in that small province of about 17,000 people.
As we drove home, I had my mind flood with understanding and awareness of how
to proceed. I realized that this first community of homes would deal with only
those of that age group (0-5) and that the next Harmony House could deal with
more or with older children, and the next one with teenagers, until we had
taken care of the needs of the community. Based upon these same principles,
healing communities could be established for the sick and elderly.
I am also thrilled with the prospects of what this will do for the surrounding
province. Of course a sense of hope will be restored. Knowing that people from
the States and other places of the world are taking a real, hands-on interest
in THEM will produce a heightened sense of pride in their dwellings and
community. Morale will go up as the town physically cleans up in preparation
for their visitors. Visiting mentors from throughout the world will probably
spend time frequenting some of the local shops and restaurants, interacting
with their previously unknown brothers and sisters. Camaraderie will be
established.
Those who volunteer in various ways will find they experience a completely
different kind of “health retreat”. Although we will all work “by the sweat of
thy brow”, hearts and bodies will be mended through the attention to fresh, raw
fruits and vegetables, fun physical activity in an incredible setting, while
reaching out to help heal others. Those who thrill to interact with children
will find a joy unknown before because of the joyful principles lived there.
Those who thrill to be noticed for their mastery and contributions to society
(through their mentoring and help in the community) will find a great joy
through their interested “audience”. And, of course, the children. They will
have their physical and emotional needs met, thus freeing them to really live
meaningful, productive lives while they discover WHO they truly are.
I will need to train those who will be helping and interacting by presenting my
“JOY of Harmony” Seminars, thus finding increased joy in that outlet myself.
Interacting with and seeing the healing and growth of the children and others
will also bring me tremendous joy. And, possibly, my own children will be able
to come spend some time with me as volunteers. THAT would be the “cherry on
top!” :-)
Placed in family-type groups with about 10 children each, the “parents” will
certainly be giving and serving a great amount of the time. Groundskeepers,
handymen, transportation help, food handlers, “substitute parents”, educators and
mentors of all types will all be very important to the community. However, no
one (NO ONE!) will be given any kind of a luxurious salary. In fact, besides
the basic needs being met (basic, fresh food; clothing; shelter; etc.) no one
will be paid a dime. This is not about money! This is about finding our lives
by losing our lives in the service of others.
Interestingly, Marcela explained that this last weekend (and particularly
Sunday, March 8th) was the international (though not in the States) “El Dia de
la Mujer”—“Day of the Woman”. How appropriate that the meeting and the
invitation to begin caring for the needs of the children occurred during this
time! I believe that when the compassionate side (typically relegated to women)
of more and more of us is acted upon (irrespective of gender), the children of
the world will be cared for, the earth will be cleaned up, and the quality of
life for each one of us will be enhanced in like manner.
I believe that there are many who are waiting and hoping that the governments
and/or the religions of the world and/or "alien beings" arriving will
do something that will “save us”. But, just perhaps, it will be from the proper
governing of our own individual actions as prompted by our pure hearts (the
“Temple” of our souls). Perhaps as we all do our own part, no matter how tiny
or grand, in a way that brings us personal happiness, we can find a world of
peace and joy for all.
I believe that there are many ancient scriptures that point to this day; many
esoteric writings that describe our time. Without quoting any of them in this
venue, but allowing each reader to form their own thoughts and understandings,
I do offer that ONLY by focusing on the “least among us” (and these children
without homes, parents, food, and so many of the other “necessities” that most
of us take for granted certainly qualify as “the least of the least”) we will
be bringing peace and a greater sense of fulfillment to our own hearts as we
help to bring a greater quality and quantity of JOY to theirs—and to the world.
I find it of interest that Harmony House and the true uniting and cleansing of
the world is being initiated here in Latin America. Perhaps these people, in
their poverty-stricken, most of them far-from-materialistic-state are most prepared
for the inception of these principles. It will be most interesting to see if
there are those from the rest of the world who will be able to truly reach down
deeply into their own hearts and make the kind of difference that only they can
make.
Although, perhaps, not “our brother’s keeper”, we are our own. As we live true
to our own inner promptings we also find ourselves doing that which is most
helpful to others, too. I beseech each interested reader to ask themselves:
“What can I do?”
After enough of us have united together, perhaps the “leaders” and governments
will take note. Perhaps at that time the red-tape will be taken from the
existing programs and the implementation of Harmony House will be changed
somewhat.

For some unknown-to-me-then
reason, I was “called” out of Ecuador, before ever meeting again with
Narciza. Although it made no sense,
still I trusted that there must be some reason.
Was it a timing issue? Did the
Ecuadorian people just require me to help plant the initial seed idea? Like always, I walked through my transition
back to the States… and beyond… knowing that I would one day understand. I have kept my contact with my dear friends,
assuring them that, “yes, some day I will be back….”

IF YOUR heart has a waking
dream, if YOU desire to do some good, the only True Good possible with your
life…
I now invite you to conduct deep
introspection; as the Widow with her Mite.
What do YOU have to place upon the altar of humanity? This is NOT about “money”, though that may be
a temporary variable. Do you have
time? Communication skills and or
contacts with whom to share this post?
Extra materials that might be helpful?
IF money is your “mite,” then yes, of course, it will be gratefully
received and implemented… transparently… to lay the foundation and kick-start
Harmony House into working order.
I have dedicated my life, every
breath I take, every thought I think, everything I do, to further the cause of
global “Harmony House.” This house in
which I presently dwell, named and consecrated “Harmony House,” I now have the
opportunity to purchase so that it is only and completely within my
stewardship, so that it is not entangled with any ulterior motives. This will be my first task: establish the security of the structural
building “on a firm foundation” so that the rest of the work of establishing
global harmony can proceed surely. To have
a Harmony House I must have a house. Though
I do believe I will return at some time to Ecuador to assist in the further
appendage there, I desire now to create the prototype for my vision HERE, in
southern Utah. Today is the day. I am one of the ones “called.” Hearing and heeding my “call,” I “elect”
myself.
Again, I give my all. If there are others who resonate and wish to
get involved, please do! Share this post
worldwide. May it go viral. Scour your closets, your mind, whatever
assets you might have. The poor are
everywhere. Some of the poorest of the
poor are those who have no clue they are not “rich.” Yet, they are poor in “spirit” and know it
not. But those who “come unto me” I will
feed. I will bind up their wounds. I will assist them to heal. Body. Mind. Spirit.
As we each join hand-in-hand, the day WILL come when we will have
saturated the globe, reached every hungry soul, become, once again, a global
sisterhood.
If you have questions or
comments or wish to make a donation in some way, see the information on my

We CAN Each… We MUST Each join
together in global harmony. One
family. One sociality. Brothers and sisters all.
