So -- the airports are shut down by protesters in Thailand, and elite Indian troops are going room-to-room in India -- and it is perfectly quiet this early morning in Santa Barbara....

And this little network -- just picking up a bit of inspiration and guidance from the quote that happens to be on my screen right now -- is a "junction of (many) directions" -- which, we might say -- is that same theme just offered to us in the video posted by biovoid -- the "core rainbow" from which all things came -- and perhaps, to which they all must return...

That video uses the expression "the shift we are all enduring".

This shift for some of us -- is not all that easy. It is so demanding. "Getting through the eye of the needle". Hey -- we are TOO BIG to fit through that little thing.... I have ALREADY done everything conceivable, and listened to every saint and prophet, and walked the walk, what do you mean I STILL have to do all this???

I don't know the answer to that. All I really know to do is -- take another step, and stay as true as possible.

But one thing that is happening for me this morning, motivated I think at least in part by this pretty new banner/logo for this network -- is an idea that just keeps coming up for me -- maybe I am just "too male" or something -- but I keep looking for an ordered convergent process, where people show up, and begin to work their way into an integral resonant matrix...

HOW do we convene this global resonance? Do we sit here and wait for some great "shift" as predicted by some school of prophets? Is somebody else doing the work, getting it done, we are just riding on the vortex of their virtue and guidance and efforts? Or do we have to step up and do it ourselves?

Do we want a highly coherent ordered field? Or should we just assume that something magical will happen -- that the huge range of differences and underlying assumptions and attitudes and philosophies will be just magically vaporized by something mystical, when our magical destiny finally arrives?

I just can't help myself. When I see huge differences among people -- something in me knows -- that these differences must somehow be negotiated into unity. This process -- does not lead us all into uniformity -- far from it. But "coming together" does depend -- on something underneath -- that we consciously control and define and select....

We choose it. We have "free will". We are the "captains of our own ship". We choose our destiny, we select the direction it sails....

I like what this new banner says. It is actually the wording taken from our original project, put together maybe five years ago. I think it was Bonnie who first uttered that phrase -- "Diversity becomes harmony through resonance." Such a simple idea -- yet so powerful and profound -- and original. Have you ever heard that idea anywhere else before? Not me. It's powerful.

The art and science of collective attunement. We don't get "collective attunement" without that "art and science". Without that art and science -- the coherence of the energy field is magical, momentary and iffy. We are in resonance one minute -- and the next, something cycles up, and resonance is broken.

What we are looking for -- is non-stop continuous unbroken resonance -- like AUM. What we are saying is: enter the AUM -- the universal resonant current -- not just in moments of meditation. Not just for one hour a week, or on some special day or event. Go there, be that -- forever. That's really the message.

Who is ready for that? Well, maybe a few.

Knock on the door, and say -- yes, I want that....

And say -- yes, I will do what it takes to get that...

And say, I want to do this with others.

And yes, I am willing to learn how to do this, and to shape and adjust my life accordingly. I want to be there, I want to be part of this. I am prepared to commit myself to whatever it takes. Where I do not yet understand -- I will strive for something better. Where all of us together do not fully understand -- I agree to listen to others with cocreative respect. I want to be "in the circle". I want to be part of it. I believe in it -- and where I do not fully understand, I will do my best to go ahead on faith....

My feeling is -- millions of people are really feeling something like this. All this testing and trial -- all this "going through the eye of the needle" -- is a kind of preparation for this process.

You say you want to join the great circle. You say you want to join hands and hearts. You say you want to surrender into the divine current. You say you want to give your all, and walk the walk to the end.

Ok -- that's great. That's square one. Glad you made it...

Now -- here's a doorway....

Try walking through this. There's a few of us here, who have made this promise and this commitment. Maybe we don't really know how it all works -- but we are ready to put everything on the table. So, let it come.
