The New Science of Water, which is being pioneered by many researchers, including Professor Gerald Pollack from the Washington University, shows that as well as occurring naturally in three different states (solid, liquid and vapour), water also occurs in a fourth molecular-structured state resembling that of liquid crystal. This form of structured water (H302) is energised, negatively charged, and is the vital element in all living organisms and natural ecosystems that is crucial for growth, well-being AND longevity.

According to talented Australian Environmental Scientist, Robert Gourlay, the New Science of Water is leading to the conclusion (not yet well understood by mainstream scientists) that water structure and energy (including cell polarity) are more critical to life function than the natural chemical constituents of water. Most water that humans and domestic animals now utilise on a daily basis is toxic, including rainwater that is exposed to air pollution, soil water that is contaminated by toxic waste and chemicals, and all captured water in dams, tanks and pipes. The limited availability of clean, structured, negatively-charged water, which every cell in your body and in plants and animals requires for good health, is now a major limitation to a healthy life.

Rob Gourlay also points out that magnetically structured water has a concentrated molecular structure that substantially mitigates friction associated with pressure-induced flow velocity in pipes, thereby offering significant efficiency advantages in irrigation, agriculture, and other hydrodynamic applications. Similar flow efficiencies were observed and used by Viktor Schauberger in the early 20th century through his vorticular water flow experiments, that mimicked the processes occurring in nature.

It’s important for a spiritual person to be happy, content and strong: Sunandaji

Posted: at 1:45 am


without comments

She's a spiritual master with a knack for clear talk and vivid similes. Mumbai-based Sunandaji, who will be lecturing in the city tomorrow, offers a slice of contemporary wisdom for the 21st century spiritual seeker.

Q: Why have you specifically chosen Chapter 15 of the Bhagavad Gita to base your lecture series on? A: Well, the last time I had lectured in public on Chapter 14 and since I go in chronological order this time it's Chapter 15.

Q: What is the central message of Chapter 15 of the Gita? A: It's considered one of the most subtle chapters of the Gita. It talks about the highest reality of existence and how to get there. It's similar to a pole vaulter who jumps over an impossible height with the help of a pole. He goes a major distance with the pole and then has to propel himself on his own steam to cross the height. Similarly the highest reality is beyond our intellectual comprehensions but there is a path (pole) that can propel us to reach it.

Q: And what is that path? A: The path is not singular there are three aspects to it which are complementary and must be employed. The first is physical when you use your body and your actions not just to achieve worldly success but to pursue an attitudinal change from being a completely selfish being to an unselfish one and then finally to a selfless one. The second is when you direct your emotions towards a higher, nobler purpose and to purify your personality, instead of being swayed by them. And the third is when you use your knowledge not just for materialistic achievement but to discover the unifying spiritual principle behind all of life.

Q: Does one necessarily need a guru or a mentor to walk the path of Self-Realisation? A: It usually depends on the calibre of the person in question. A guru is like a sign-post that ensures that you are on the right track and are not veering off. Does a sportsman need a trainer to achieve excellence? A guru is very much like that. He/She helps identify your strengths and weaknesses and can coach you from an objective point of view. It's also true that as human beings we often may not be able to accurately realise our weaknesses.

Q: Is life a game of suffering and happiness? A: Life is a buffet everything's available. But you must choose wisely. You must learn to make the right choices and whatever you choose you will have to live with. That's why having an education is so important.

Q: Do we humans have free will or is everything predetermined for us? A: Human beings are the only creatures on Earth who have free will. Of all life forms on this planet, only humans have the freedom to choose and to determine their destinies. If it were otherwise change would not be possible that is why people who are born in stark circumstances can blossom at some stage in life and vice-versa. Just look at our PM who started off a a tea boy...

Q: Is it important for spiritual seekers to be actively engaged in society? A: It depends on the person. Some spiritual seekers need to be actively involved in society while others choose to live a secluded life. One must be true to oneself and to one's inner nature or swadharma. Just as it is important for scientists to have secluded laboratory conditions to make scientific discoveries, it is necessary for some spiritualists to lead a cloistered life in order to make their inner-soul discoveries. Both, ultimately, benefit people, benefit humanity. Having said that it's important for a spiritual person to be happy, content and strong wherever he/she is because you can't help anyone if you are a victim yourself. You need to be a complete human being to benefit others and those are the qualities that spirituality brings about.

WHEN & WHERE: November 3 to 6, Ravindra Natya Mandir, Prabhadevi

FILM: Fair Game (Film4, 6.40pm)

(2010) This fact-based drama is all about the build-up to the Iraq War.

CIA agent Valerie Plames former diplomat husband is sent away to investigate rumours that Saddam Hussein is trying to buy radioactive materials. He discovers that no such materials exist, but his reports back are flatly ignored, leading him to publicly condemn the Bush administrations eagerness to wage war.

But when Valeries identity is leaked to the press, their lives are put in danger.

A superb cast bring to life a touchy, yet much-talked-about subject and they do it well (its arguably Naomi Watts best performance to date, while Sean Penn shines as he always does).

Many politically minded viewers may feel slightly frustrated at times, especially if they dont agree with the movies controversial claims, but that wont take away from the overall effect of the film.

Starring: Naomi Watts, Sean Penn, Bruce McGill, Adam LeFevre

NATURE: Life Story (BBC1, 9pm)

No qualms about it, Sir David Attenborough is the kind of figurehead who will never need an introduction, his name now synonymous with some of the most weird and wonderful inhabitants of the animal kingdom.

And yet, amazingly, the veteran broadcaster still doesnt show any signs of slowing the pace anytime soon not bad going to say hes in his late eighties.

Pope maps out personal (and progressive) policy in series of speeches now that synod is over

Published October 29, 2014

FILE -- In this file photo provided by the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano on Oct. 28, 2014, Pope Francis speaks to participants of the Global Meeting of Popular Movements, at the Vatican. Pope Francis has made some of the most important policy speeches of his pontificate in recent days, catching up for lost time following months of attention to bureaucratic reform and the convulsive meeting of bishops on family issues that just ended. Often speaking in his native Spanish, Francis has focused on issues close to his heart, pontificating at length about the plight of the poor and unemployed, the environment and even evolution, seemingly emboldened to speak his mind on topics that must make even some of his closest collaborators squirm.

FILE -- In this file photo provided by the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano on Oct. 27, 2014, Pope Francis is flanked by Chancellor of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, Mons. Marcelo Sanchez Sorondo, during the unveiling of a bronze bust of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, at the Vatican. Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI spent his entire pontificate elaborating on the compatibility of faith and scientific reason, insisting that the cosmos isn't a system of random chaos but rather an organized system where the hand of the Creator is obvious. St. John Paul II and Pope Pius XII voiced similar conclusions before him. Pope Francis put the churchs thinking in his own words: "The Big Bang, which today is considered the origin of the world, doesn't contradict the intervention of a divine creator but requires it," he said. "Evolution in nature doesn't contradict the notion of creation because evolution presupposes the creation of beings who evolve." (AP Photo/L'Osservatore Romano)(The Associated Press)

VATICAN CITY Pope Francis has made some of the most important policy speeches of his pontificate in recent days, catching up for lost time following months of attention to bureaucratic reform and the turbulent meeting of bishops on family issues that just ended.

Often speaking in his native Spanish, Francis has focused on issues close to his heart, pontificating at length about the plight of the poor and unemployed, the environment and even evolution, seemingly emboldened to speak his mind on topics that must make even some of his closest collaborators squirm.

He hasn't changed church doctrine. But he has pushed the envelope on some issues, raised eyebrows with his blunt speaking style on others, and made clear where his progressive social priorities lie. Here are some highlights from a busy week at the Vatican, with issues that Francis might raise again when he makes a major policy speech to the European Parliament next month.

SILENT DEATH PENALTY

In his most explosive speech to a group of penal lawyers, Francis went well beyond the Vatican's previous opposition to capital punishment by denouncing life prison terms as a "hidden death penalty." Francis' outreach to prisoners is well-known: He famously washed the feet of juvenile delinquents Muslims and women among them at a Rome detention center during his first Holy Thursday as pope. In his speech last week, Francis denounced prison systems as "out of control" for depriving people of their dignity, citing recourse to the death penalty, detaining people without charge or conviction and holding inmates in isolation, which he called a form of "physical and psychological torture." Putting him squarely at odds with the United States, where he is going next year, Francis also denounced extraordinary renditions, which the CIA used after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks to take terror suspects to third countries for interrogation.

Pope Francis Maps Out Personal, and Progressive, Policies

Posted: at 2:46 pm

Vatican City Pope Francis has made some of the most important policy speeches of his pontificate in recent days, catching up for lost time following months of attention to bureaucratic reform and the turbulent meeting of bishops on family issues that just ended.

Often speaking in his native Spanish, Francis has focused on issues close to his heart the plight of the poor and unemployed, the environment and even evolution, seemingly emboldened to speak his mind on topics that must make even some of his closest collaborators squirm.

He hasnt changed church doctrine. But he has pushed the envelope on some issues, raised eyebrows with his blunt speaking style on others, and made clear where his progressive social priorities lie. Here are some highlights from a busy week at the Vatican, with issues that Francis might raise again when he makes a major policy speech to the European Parliament next month.

Silent Death Penalty

In his most explosive speech to a group of penal lawyers, Francis went well beyond the Vaticans previous opposition to capital punishment by denouncing life prison terms as a hidden death penalty. Francis outreach to prisoners is well-known: He famously washed the feet of juvenile delinquents Muslims and women among them at a Rome detention center during his first Holy Thursday as pope.

Putting him squarely at odds with the United States, where he is going next year, Francis also denounced extraordinary renditions, which the CIA used after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks to take terror suspects to third countries for interrogation.

Big Bang

Francis raised some eyebrows with his remarks on creation and evolution, saying the Big Bang theory doesnt contradict the Christian belief in creation. While his words were very Franciscan in their bluntness When we read the story of Creation in Genesis we risk imagining that God was a magician Francis was merely restating what the Catholic Church has long taught: that there is no contradiction between creation and evolution. Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI spent his entire pontificate elaborating on the compatibility of faith and scientific reason, insisting that the cosmos isnt a system of random chaos but rather an organized system where the hand of the Creator is obvious. St. John Paul II and Pope Pius XII voiced similar conclusions before him. Francis put the churchs thinking in his own words: Evolution in nature doesnt contradict the notion of creation because evolution presupposes the creation of beings who evolve, he said.

Unemployment

Francis also grabbed headlines when he acknowledged that his concern for the poor, the unemployed and the environment would lead some to label him a communist. They dont understand that love for the poor is at the center of the Gospel, he said. The remarks were delivered to a meeting of representatives of popular movements at the Vatican. In the audience were farmers, miners, fishermen and Argentine cartoneros, who sift through garbage looking for recyclable goods.

Also on hand to hear one of the longest, most heartfelt speeches of Francis pontificate was Evo Morales, Bolivias first indigenous president known for his socialist rhetoric. In an off-the-cuff speech in Spanish, Francis denounced the injustices of the poor that the world wants to forget, the scandal of hunger and the lost generation of young people who are unemployed.

Jeff Lieberman, an MIT-trained artist, scientist and engineer, makes a scientific argument for mystical experience. He asks us to challenge our perception of what we are, our relationship to the universe, and our relationship to one another. Our minds are "thought-generating machines." What we would happen if we could turn off the machine? If we could transcend our individual experience of the world?

This talk was transcribed by Brad Miele. Transcript here: http://bea.st/inevolution/?p=264

Wellness event a whole-person experience

What are you doing this Saturday? Will you be taking care of yourself, your spirit, and your heart? Youre invited to do all three by attending Heart of Wellness, an event that will enrich your mind, body and spirit.

This fifth installment of the popular local series created by wellness advocate David Sauro infuses music, wellness information, videos and talks centered on Lessons for the Heart, not to mention fantastic live music from Barnstables own Alicia Mathewson.

Sauro created Heart of Wellness in April 2013 as a workshop program. After seeing Mathewson perform at a Dancing for a Cure event, he realized he needed to include music in his Heart of Wellness events.

Her songs were very touching, very moving, said Sauro. We invited her to sing at HOW No. 3.

Sauro said that sound is a healing element and a perfect accompaniment to the lessons for the heart that each event aims to convey to attendees.

Were looking to teach simple health values such as drinking more water, eating fresh foods, exercise, he said. Simple things that we think will help peoples health.

The event will be a mix of music performed by Mathewson and fellow musicians Marcia Wytrwal, choral director at Barnstable High School, and her partner, John Dirac, wellness videos, and short talks, and will be hosted by Barnstable High Principal Pat Clark, a longtime supporter of Heart of Wellness.
