Think your weather

[Guest guest]

Let's Rethink the Prophecies

by Doreen Virtue, Ph.D.

 

As I write this article, on January 2nd, the cloudy sky outside my

office threatens to rain upon Southern California. There's nothing that

unusual about this weather, particularly since it was cloudy two days ago,

on December 31st. The only thing extraordinary is that in-between this

sandwich of cloud-covered days, yesterday, January 1st, was completely

cloudless.

 

It's the same thing every year in Southern California. No matter

how bad the winter weather or city smog gets, January 1st is always

picture-perfect. So, the Rose Parade is consistently backdropped by a

robin's-egg-blue skyline. Recently, this phenomenon came to the attention of

scientists who study psychokinesis, or P.K. for short. P.K. is the study of

how our thoughts affect matter. These scientists observed that January 1st's

uncannily clear weather pattern beats statistical chance. According to the

researchers, this phenomenon is attributable to the large number of people

who hold strong thoughts about having clear skies during the Rose Parade.

After all, many folks go to a lot of trouble building floats and

transporting their schools' marching band to Pasadena. Bad weather would

definitely rain on their parade.

 

Researchers at Princeton University noted a similar phenomenon.

Every year during Princeton's outdoor graduation ceremonies, the weather is

crystal clear. Princeton scientist Roger Nelson found that the statistical

probability of this weather pattern was incredibly small, so that mere

"chance" could not explain it. Dr. Nelson believes that the graduates and

their out-of-town guests collectively create the perfect weather condition

with their thoughts. The researcher noted that one year, a record-heavy

rainfall "waited" until an hour after the graduation ceremony before the

drops started falling.

 

These studies put a whole new light on bumper stickers which read,

"Think Snow," or social patter where we say things like, "Well, I put in my

order for good weather today." Of course, the studies' implications are

well-known to any student of metaphysics. We intuitively know that our

collective consciousness affects the earth and her weather. When we hold

thoughts of anger, fear, jealousy, or competition, the earth absorbs the

negative energy as if secondhand smoke was choking her lifeblood. Mother

earth's body, like our physical bodies, manifests illnesses from repressed

negative feelings. Yet, when we send loving and peaceful thoughts outwardly,

the earth thirstily drinks them in.

 

I remember Johnny Carson's monologues that poked fun at the

Harmonic Convergence. Yet, Dr. Nelson of Princeton recently completed

another mind-blowing study that just might eliminate all skepticism about

the group mind effect upon the earth. On January 23rd 1997, people around

the globe simultaneously meditated about world peace for five minutes. The

event was known as "The Gaiamind Project."

 

Dr. Nelson and other American and European scientists used

measuring devises in 14 global locations to test changes in the earth's

energy field during the Gaiamind meditation. They concluded that there was a

definite shift in the field during Gaiamind's five minutes.

 

University of Nevada researcher Dean Radin has measured

significant changes in the earth's energy field during group events such as

The Academy Awards, O.J. Simpson's verdict reading, Super Bowls, and the

prime time television hours of 8 to 10 p.m. Both Drs. Radin and Nelson use

instruments that are like giant brain wave machines, measuring the

collective effects of group mind. These machines show that when we put our

minds together and focus on a singular event simultaneously, we send out

signals that affects matter. Interestingly, the machines show that during

prime time television, our collective consciousness zooms upward during the

television program, and then lulls during the commercial breaks. The graphs

recorded by these machines show huge peaks and valleys in our mass brain

waves that perfectly correlate to whether a prime television program is on,

or whether we're all watching a commercial.

 

Princeton's Dr. Nelson measured the earth's energy field during

the funerals of Princess Diana and Mother Teresa. He found a statistically

significant effect during Diana's funeral, but not during Mother Teresa's.

Dr. Nelson concluded that there was a unified focus during Diana's funeral

because of the simultaneous television broadcast and collective emotions of

grief, shock, and love. Mother Teresa's funeral, on the other hand, was not

simultaneously broadcast and came after her lengthy illness.

 

The bottom-line conclusion of these studies is that we MUST unify

our thoughts and emotions to create an effect upon the earth. That is why on

April 23rd at 6:30 p.m., we are asking everyone everywhere to read and

follow the meditation of The Great Experiment. Please tell everyone you

know, please mark your calendar, and make a firm commitment to join us!

 

When Hurricane Fran threatened the east coast in 1996, more than

100 hypnotherapists attending a hypnotherapy convention in Virginia Beach

focused their attention on slowing the hurricane's speed. Immediately after

their group meditation, Fran slowed from 110 miles per hour, to 85 miles per

hour. Coincidence? Perhaps. Yet, hypnotherapists are highly skilled at

focusing their thoughts, and studies show that an intense and unwavering

focus is what creates the most powerful effect. Group meditations where

people's minds wander don't do much good, in other words. The hypnotists'

focused thoughts were also joined with the countless wishes of other eastern

seaboard residents who wanted Fran to slow down and go away.

 

We know from countless scientific studies, conducted at respected

universities, that our thoughts affect matter. These studies show that our

thoughts significantly alter the growth rate of plants, the temperature of

water and air temperature, and the toss of coins and dice. Scientists are

even studying the "safety implications" of mind-upon-matter. After all,

researchers have proven that people in bad moods are statistically more

likely to crash their computers and foul-up photocopy machines. They believe

it logically follows that a negative-minded pilot's thoughts may mess with

the airplane's instruments.

 

Just as negative thoughts interfere with matter, so do our loving

thoughts support harmonious experiences in the material world. By regularly

meditating upon an environment that supports all life, our thoughts will

rapidly transform the world. And just as we would never dream of littering

or polluting the atmosphere, let's also collectively stop littering the

earth's field with negative thoughts. Just imagine the positive results if

we'd all go "cold turkey" and quit worrying, stressing, and engaging in

other mental polluting habits. Maybe instead of those signs that show a

cigarette with a circle and a line through it, we'll all have placards that

read, "Thank you for holding only positive thoughts." I'd also like to

suggest that, during those lull moments of commercial television breaks,

that we all collectively say a prayer for world peace.

 

As we approach the millennium shift, where prophecies have

predicted earthly doom and gloom, we can use the power of our collective

thought to avert these thoughts of planetary disaster. Many psychics and

prophets have predicted more torrential storms to hit the U.S. in 1998.

Let's put our minds together and create a more harmonious picture. We can

take charge of our environment by visualizing a beautifully peaceful world.

As science is now proving: we have the power!
