What is a Life Body?

I believe NDEs or ADEs (Apparent or After Death Experiences) are the most important things happening in the world today. If they are real everything else going on in the world pales into the insignificance of a dream because that is what NDEs report, compared to the world awaiting us after physical death, the world we live in now is tantamount to a dream.
If you are open to the possibility that NDEs or ADEs are real, consider the two body dilemma. The experience of Howard Storm and many others suggests that we have an extra-physical body similar to the physical body we inhabit during our life of Earth that separates from it at death and continues in another dimension.
The faculties of life, like thought and sensation, seem more acute in the separated body – the normal one seems to dull them down – so it appears that life resides in the extra-physical body. For this reason I call it the Life body and suggest the physical body is a mantle covering and deadening it, so to speak. If this is so the expressions ‘life-after-death’ or ‘afterlife’ would be inaccurate. It could be we don’t die at all but shed a physical mantle.
The body we live in on Earth could be likened to a space suit we occupy to visit a hostile planet. Death appears to be the equivalent of stepping out of the space suit when we go home. People returning from death say the experience is like going home. It could be we are not the physical body we see but are in a Life body we don’t see.

What is Health?

What is health and how do we know when we are healthy? These are not questions that can be easily answered. I have known individuals who have walked out of a specialists rooms having just passed through the usual ECG and other common tests with flying colours and suffered a heart attack in the lift on the way out of the building.
Many cancer patients have been extremely well until on routine examination a lump is diagnosed which turns out to be malignant. Thousands upon thousands of people without any symptoms and who regard themselves as normal and healthy are diagnosed every day with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, early diabetes, abnormal pap smears, cancers, enlarged prostates, nodules on thyroids and other medical conditions and yet would of regarded themselves as healthy. Modern medicine has made possible the detection of a whole range of diseases, which until fairly recently would have gone undetected.
Is a person who feels well and regards himself in good health indeed healthy if he has an underlying high blood pressure, increased cholesterol or even a hidden cancer? How are we to incorporate ideas of psychological health? Is this separate from health of the physical body? If a person is depressed, but physically healthy, is such a person to be regarded as healthy? Is psychological health or physical health more important?
We can begin to see how complicated this issue is and that no simple answer is possible. Collins dictionary defines health as physical and mental well-being; freedom from disease. As indicated above physical and mental well-being does not mean that the person is however free of disease. It is possible of course that as our means of detecting the earlier stages of disease becomes more sensitive, that more and more people will be labelled as ill without having any symptoms and signs.
Already today many thousands of “healthy” individuals are taking expensive medication for high blood pressure long before it produces any obvious symptoms. This medication must be taken for the rest of that person’s life and may produce mild to severe and even life threatening ill health. The benefits of taking the medication are regarded as better than the risks of not taking the medication. I will be looking at the issue of drugs in another blog.

A Time for Review

It has now been more than 25 years since Kima Global Publishers first opened its doors in 1992 with the publication of Rising out of Chaos – The New Heaven and the New Earth by Simon Peter Fuller. We were friends then and still are today. Simon Peter is living in active retirement in Sri Lanka and Nadine and I are still in Cape Town, now in the Deep South.

Rising out of Chaos was a book well ahead of its time, but is now totally relevant to today’s chaotic world. The World is even more chaotic, but the arrival of the New Earth is ever more likely. We are currently offering the e-book edition free (actually nearly free since we cannot do a transaction with no value. PayPal will not allow this).

In celebration of our 25 years we have pleasure in announcing the launch of our new Showroom web site, which features all our best sellers over the years. We would welcome your visit there and your comments.

You can also find out why we do what we do, our mission, and some background as to what we look for in a new publication, so that you as a potential new author know what to expect from us.

Is Global Warming True?

Many climate scientists are questioning the relationship between carbon emissions and global warming, while others assert that this trend has now ended. While McPherson’s prognosis, (Guy McPherson – Human Extinction Within Ten Years) based on the global warming hypothesis, may appear grim, what if there were another trend currently counteracting this one? While summers continue to register record high temperatures, winters are getting increasingly colder, which leads some to argue that we are in for a period of global cooling instead of global warming.

Whether a consequence of human-made greenhouse gases, or an outcome of natural evolutionary cycles, or both, the fact remains that the temperature on the surface of the Earth has warmed approximately 0.5 degree Celsius on the average within the past few decades and until around 2007. At first sight this may not seem like much. But considering the intricately linked ecosystem of Gaia, this is a significant increase.

Imagine your own body’s thermostat no longer set at its normal temperature of 37 degrees Celsius. Anyone who has had a fever knows what it’s like to feel weakened, foggy, and sick, alternating between irritation and lethargy, cold chills and hot flashes.

The Earth has a variety of negative feedback loops to keep her temperature stable at the optimum rate for the proliferation of life. Consider what would happen if this thermostat were to be forcibly jammed over a long period of time.

Thom Hartmann reports in his book The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight: Waking Up to Personal and Global Transformation, that the Great Conveyor Belt has been sputtering lately. It has already stopped and started a few times within the past ten decades. Once it shuts down completely, it is likely to remain shut down for anywhere between a few hundred years and a few thousand years, initiating a new Ice Age.  This is an extract from Gaia Luminous by Kiara Windrider.

Happiness

An attitude of gratitude brings more joy to Life than grumbling and complaining. Living with love brings joy into living. Living with love replaces guilt, blame and shame with happiness. There is no need for concern about the future life if we live the life we have now with love in our hearts. If we live with love, happiness can unfold like a flower.
Try living with belief in continuous living. Imagine living in love and light forever, with infinite joy without worry or suffering, and with freedom of the Universe. Does that make you happy? It is not being loved but loving others that brings happiness. Love for money and material things and being in love may bring happiness for a while but it doesn’t last. Lasting happiness comes not from possessions or possessing people but from living in love with Life; the life that is always in us.
Love and joy can flow out from the Life within us, toward people, places and things, if we allow it. The objects of our affections continually change and sadness can come with the changes until we learn that happiness comes not from anything outside of us, happiness resides within us. That is why we need to know ourselves.
When we love whoever we are with a fountain of happiness opens within. For me recently it was a hornet that wanted to share a caravan with me. She was gorgeous and I was much happier when I welcomed her and let her fly in and out as she wanted than when I was in fear I might have to live in a hornet’s nest!
My son Sam’s partner, Sonia, said that the best way to find happiness is to serve others. It matters not if we are rich or poor. Greed or envy will not make us happy but compassion, gratitude and service, even to a hornet, can release the flow of happiness. Howard Storm was taught that the best way to grow spiritually is through service. Many great spiritual teachers, including the late Saytha Sai Baba taught that. My experience is that this is true.

Are GM foods safe?

With GMF we have a deliberate attempt from the beginning to confuse and to bypass the normal safety channels. Information was suppressed and deliberately contorted and attempts were made to present part of the story only, giving an impression that studies showed that GMF were safe to use when very clearly this was not exactly what all studies had showed. In fact there is good evidence that the opposite is true. Many substantial studies showed that GMF could be dangerous to our health, yet every effort was made to get these products into the market place as fast as possible before too much evidence as to their safety was available.
If one introduces a novel man made food product into the market the long term consequences could be seriously problematic. Cancer takes 10 to 20 years to develop and this also applies to many of the chronic diseases we see today. Research of only a few months in animals cannot possible give such long term prediction of harm or harmlessness and even a few studies showing harm should raise alarm bells. It is really not good enough that some short term studies showing safety should satisfy professionals in the face of the real possibility that genetic modification is touching the very heart of the cell structure.
GM crops have not been proven unconditionally safe and there is sufficient evidence to make many good scientists wary of this process. With this huge question mark around GM products, allowing them to be used freely by human beings and especially children is experimental. It is the kind of science that should not be allowed. Why would companies selling GM derived foods not want that information available clearly on the package?
Rats fed GM potatoes have shown serious defects. The rats suffered damaged immune systems; the thymus and spleen showed evidence of damage and some of the rats had smaller, less developed brains, livers and testicles. There were other defects that were interesting and of some concern. Some of the GM potatoes were nutritionally different to their non-GM parent lines even though they were grown in identical condions.

Is Spiritual Awakening Imminent?

I have come to believe that what we term enlightenment in various spiritual traditions is an act of biological transformation within the consciousness of matter. It is not a spiritual event so much as a biological event. It often happens spontaneously for people who have no spiritual background and who are not even looking for it. If this is so, then is it possible that as we go through changes in the consciousness of matter on a collective level, that a wave of enlightenment would follow?
Sri Aurobindo and his spiritual partner Mirra Alfassa, also known simply as the Mother, believed that this would be the case. A hundred years ago, they spoke of the supramental transformation that would be occurring on Earth and emphasized the necessity of experiencing this first in our own bodies. They spoke of waves of cosmic light that would move through human consciousness, preparing us for this great shift.
These waves are coming in now. Many systems are emerging all over the world with the intention of harnessing these waves and using them for inner transformation. My sense is that we are close to a critical mass, at which point the vast reservoirs of undiscovered potential within our DNA will get turned on. We can then harness the incoming cosmic energies and anchor them in the physical body, leading to what some refer to as taking the rainbow body, a process of unifying our physical bodies with our light bodies.

Mastery in 2018

I think we can all agree that 2017 has been an eventful year. Certainly The Times they are a’changing.

We can all (those of us that are still here) look back and say that we have survived the challenges. They have gifted us adapability and self-reliance. We too shall overcome. I know that these two songs date from more than 50 years ago, but they had a pivotal influence on my life and that of an entire generation.

What will 2018 bring us? I suppose that it is anybody’s guess, but since it is an Eleven year it will be a year of mastery. The challenges of our individual pasts are certain to lead to mastery of our situation in 2018. It will be a year of revelation and exposure to Truth.

Our exciting new title Gaia Luminous by Kiara Windrider is an exciting overview of where we and the Earth are placed at this time and an intriguing look at what the future may bring. See here to look inside the book. We are particularly honored to have been chosen to publish this book because of the respected profile of the author and the good work it will undoubtedly do in giving insight to the readers into the future of our beloved planet and our role in its future. This alone gives personal peace and confidence… and cheers to that!

We will be featuring extracts from it in future blogs, perhaps as early as next week if we get requests.

A Time for Joy

Traditionally this is a Season of Joy, and in this tradition I would like to offer this lovely extract from our title Awakening to Angels by Belinda Bras-Nel.

“Joy is almost more of a Heavenly term than an Earthly one, exactly because it contains a snippet of Heaven, or perhaps, too, because the belief in joy has almost died out at an Earthly level.
“We understand that everyone may comprehend the essence of joy in a different way, and because it contains a bit of Heaven, the concept often flies over the head of souls who are too closely bound to Earth. Yet joy is within everybody’s reach, and it really depends on whether you pray for and believe it for yourself or not.
“Joy is much like the concept of God and love. It is there to be embraced and understood, or simply to be enjoyed by anyone who allows himself to be swept away by it.
“A good time to invite joy into your life is when you feel tired and discouraged. A good way to invite joy is to pray for it. Ask God and your angels to help you become receptive to it once again. Ask regularly, even daily, for joy to fill your life.
“Some of you have convinced yourselves that you no longer know what joy feels like. This is the perfect time to ask to experience joy in your life again, and to notice its presence when it does appear.
“Joy brings the emotion of feeling carefree when souls are in a space of trust and realise that they are being cared for by Spirit. In this space, the negative scales on the eyes are exchanged for a clear view of the blessings they are surrounded by.
“Joy, therefore, isn’t something you have to work hard at or something you have to prepare for yourselves and for others. Joy is a belief and a lifestyle cultivated by a decision to experience and notice it in your life every day.”

Getting past our pain

Life is an Illusion and what is Real exists Beyond the Veil of this Illusion. The sensations of comfort and discomfort are the distinguishing features that give us a sense of Real. These features also guide the negative or positive calibre of all our experiences.
There are many factors which have an enormous effect on how we view our ‘realities’ and process all our challenges and the attitudes we develop as a result. In addition, the density of this realm is by its nature, very limiting and has skewed our ability to view a bigger scheme at work here. All of this is compounded by the fact that as we are the subject of our own experiences, an understanding of the invisible principles at work in our realities and within ourselves are even further obscured.
The physical world is the only reality that is tangible for us which is why it is so difficult to ‘see’ a reality beyond this one. The veil is a fascinating part of our existence on this planet because as it overshadows the Truth of what is Real, a mystery is created. The main principle behind this mystery is that as the True Nature of our Spiritual Identity is concealed, the dichotomy between what is real and the illusion has limited and narrowed our perception of what is true, authentic and important.

This is a brief extract from our new title The Pain Game Rules by Beverley Yolande
