Hello, wherever on this beautiful planet you live . . .

Udo Erasmus, authority on flax seed oils, Omega-3, EFA's

Where do we start?

We have to start with life, because life is what makes this planet special, precious, and delicate, all at the same time, and in our known universe. Life is the standard by which to measure everything we feel, think, say, and do. If something protects life and nature and supports the growth of life in nature, it is good. If something threatens life and hinders growth, it is not good. This is the standard for a planet that supports life.


Life is the highest standard here. If we were to use this standard to make decisions, we would make many wiser decisions. We would run our industries differently. We would govern differently. We would revere and care for life in more practical ways.


 What happens when we live to standards lower than those set by life?  We get pain.

Pain is not our enemy. Pain is our friend. Pain pushes us to change. If we make the right kinds of changes, the pain that motivates us to change goes away. Pain is life’s message to us when we go off track. Udo Erasmus flower photo


Embedded in life’s energy is a feeling. One name for that feeling is wholeness. Other names include peace, love, courage, contentment, wisdom, truth, freedom, presence, God, and joy. The feeling of life is not created by our thoughts and beliefs, but discovered by a practice (knowledge, know-how) that moves our awareness from world and mind, deep inside, where we can discover more of our nature. See my [list of resources] to find out how.


We, as individual human beings, need to re-connect our awareness to our core so that we feel taken care of. When that is done, we can begin to make care-full decisions for our selves, others, and nature. We can begin to live from inspiration. It’s time we find out what we are and what is true about life, body, mind, and planet.


Unless, we want a lot more pain.

Sooner or later, life will get our attention.
