For those of you who are visionary, I know you share my frustration of seeing so clearly the future only to be met with unsuppressed sighs and eye-rolls when you share your vision, and the exhilaration you feel when your vision is finally validated by an outside “authority” like science or mass media.
Such was the case when I was thumbing through a Time magazine in my dentist’s office.
The March 22nd Annual Issue featured an article, “The Dropout Economy: The Future of Work Looks a Lot Like Unemployment.” The article suggested that the young people dropping out of the educational system (30% drop out of high school, and less than a third of young people have finished college) are on to something (realizing that the road to financial security does not lie in getting a college education, then landing a high paying job . . . that . . . hello . . . those jobs are leaving the U.S. faster than fleas off a dog on fire!) The article goes on to predict that the jobs that do emerge will be ones we can hardly imagine right now.

I’ll “see” you in our next newsletter May 12th.

Your Travel Guide to the 5th Dimension
Better Off, by Eric Brende
I have previously recommended this book, but it is so apropos of this newsletter article that it felt appropriate to recommend it again. The focus is on the “simple life.” The question is posed “what is the least we need to achieve the most?” The answer will delight and entertain you. This book will cause you to seriously reconsider what you currently think of as “the good life.”
I am a Pioneering Soul who “woke up” in 1989 to the reality that exists beyond the ability of the five senses to detect, and the rational mind to comprehend. I was “told” that humanity is in the midst of a huge evolutionary leap and that my purpose was to expand my consciousness as far and as fast as I could in this lifetime and show others how to do the same.
At the end of 2009 I was given a vision of what is possible for humanity right now — to grow out of 3rd dimensional reality (the realm of the five senses) much as a teenager grows out of childhood and into young adulthood. The “teenage” years of spiritual growth are about developing mastery of 4th dimensional reality (the realm of emotions) by learning to sense the subtle energies within the physical body, and the subtle energies that are the very fabric of the Universe we inhabit.
It became clear that once we have mastered 4th dimensional reality, we are ready to become 5th dimensional beings who have fully integrated thought with feeling, and the material with the spiritual. We will have become what Barbara Marx Hubbard calls Universal Humans — knowing who we are, why we are here and living harmoniously with each other in Joy and without struggle.
The Mark Group begins this Sunday, May 2nd at my home from 3 to 5 pm. This is open to anyone who likes to have fun. It is sponsored by More House, an intentional community located in the East Bay based on pleasurable living and having fun. The cost is $10 which goes entirely to the More House people who are making the trek to bring the group to Lodi. I hope you will give it a try. It is my intention to use this group as an entry into creating closer community among us in the Lodi area. We have scheduled this event for every Sunday through June. If the interest is strong we will continue the group indefinitely.

The Awakening Your Light Body class is off to a fantastic start with 16 participants. It is a delight and a pleasure to be leading this group of pioneering souls into a whole new way of interacting with “reality.” I totally admire these adventuresome spirits who are willing to take this journey one Saturday a month for six months not really knowing where it will lead!

"The Grounding and Centering meditation you did last week was so good. It was powerful and did a lot of good for me! Your guide (Abraham) directed the meditation to be just exactly what I needed.
