The Little Thread Which Grew - the Apollo '73 to Everything But

[lkwdblds]

Big goings one in Riverside yesterday!

DOWNTOWN RIVERSIDE, CA - Many of the cities in Southern California now have spectacular downtimes. Long Beach, Santa Monica, Glendale, Pasadena, even Fullerton and the city of Orange. I heard that Riverside has a downtown which does not take a back seat to any of these. I decided to take a drive out to Riverside and check out their downtown district. It was more like a visit to a European City in Spain or Portugal than to a U.S. Downtown.

While in Riverside, I decided to check out what used to be the gigantic Riverside Mission. It began life in 1909 as the YMCA building in Riverside. This building is huge, taking the better part of a city block in width and about half that in depth. It is enormous. I was taken on a guided tour and enjoyed it thoroughly. After viewing the building, I visited the Mission Inn which is a classic Spanish Architecture hotel, originally built in the late 1800's. Many of our U.S. Presendents have stayed there. It is registered as a Historical Building in the U.S. Registry of such places. They were booked solid for lunch so I walked a couple of blocks away to a Cajun restaurant and had a delightful cajun lunch.

After parking and walking the streets some more, I then went to Starbucks for coffee and spent some time there observing people and picking up the local flavor of the City. Needless to say, it was one of the finer downtowns of California cities which I have ever seen and I was very impressed.

I had never been out to the Scientology compound called Gold so I decided to take the 22 mile drive to Gilman Hot Springs just to see what the compound looked like. The complex is very long, perhaps a mile or so and very interesting to see after having heard so much about it for many years. I then drove the 35 to 40 miles and came home.

we spent labor day week end, as we always do, in Capitola, CA. The whole damn family shows up for a few days of swimming, body surfing, playing in the sand, relaxing, and all the other stuff.

on Sunday the Begonia bedecked floats make their parade down the river. Thousands crowd every beach, bridge and trestle to enjoy the spectacle.

It must be really nice to be you... Thanks for sharing those beautiful pictures!

Lakey displays his psychic ablitiles and may get some $$$

Saturday night, I went to downtown Santa Ana. The first Saturday of the month, the city streets downtown are wide open to foot traffic and all the art galleries and art shops are open and are selling art work. I met Edey and about 7 of her friends and we spent a couple of hours touring the place. We went for dinner at an outdoor cafeteria and Edey sat next to me and demanded I do one of my accupressure treatments on her neck and head. I did it and 3 of her friends asked if I woule give then a treatment. I gave one woman and 2 men extensive treatments. All three of these people are psychic and do either readings or some type of pyschic healing.

The woman was M. She was extremely attractive featuring a plunging neckline revealing a lot of first class cleavage. At first I took her for mid to late 30' but later I got the impression she was older, perfaps between 45 and 50. Her face amd forhead are perfectly taut and there are no frown lines, etc. My former wife just got plastic surgery done on her and looks similar so I figured that M. had also had it done. M., is amazing, very strong and focused physically, mentally and spiritually. She always has a smile on her face and operates from a spirit of play. She was pretty clean, very little thinking going on but she had two knots of tension, one on either side of her neck. She wanted me to work those and the one on the left connected to her pectoral muscle on her chest which I worked pretty hard up just to the right of the armpit. M. wanted as much pressure as I could apply on the knots on the neck. I made my index finger into a knuckle and pushed on her neck as hard as a could. It was not hard enough for her and she leaned back in her chair and pushed back with he neck as hard as she could. I could barely keep my knuckle from giving ground but I held. After about 25 seconds of full on force, both of us pushing in opposite directions, she backed off and said she thought we had unknotted the knot. On the other side, I was able to slide the bones around with a thumb action and some bones slid into place and the knot went away.

I then went to the mental part of the treatment. I found only one thought on her head. This was that she was having to walk a tight rope to keep two different parties happy, one of them a boy friend. She nodded that was correct but it wasn't part of her problem. I picked up no more thoughts but she wanted me to press on her head and release harmful energy which was stuck there. I had to mess up a beautiful hair do and she insisted I mess it up a bit and a lot of negative energy flowed off her head, through the my arm and into the ground. She was then happy and I could get no more thoughts. She then originated that she was in an office with two other people who were fighting and putting each other down every day and that a lot of their negative energy was rubbing off on her and accumulating on her. That cog signaled me to end the session. I suggested that she work out a program to handle this in the physical universe and that my function was now complete. She agreed. Before ending, I wanted to check her neck on both sides and both knots were completely gone. She give me a lot of praise and said that I was a gifted healer and could not thank me enough.

The two guys did not have interesting cases. One guy was just not getting enough sleep. This guy was a closed book. I could not read any thoughts whatsoever and his neck and back were not really knotted. He had a little none optimum alignment due mainly to lack of sleep. After about 10 minutes of massage I figured out that I could not help him much and that he just needed to work out a physical universe program to get his sleep. Even he was very impressed and various people at the table chimed in with recommendations to help one get to sleep. I mentioned calcium-magnesium and that resonated with him as having worked in the past and the other people were recommending a store in Santa Ana called "Mothers" as the best place to buy it.

The 3rd guy had a terrible head and back condition and I could see his pictures like a book and said if had to do with something about his car. I asked, "Was your car stolen and stripped of a stereo and so forth?" and that was the case. I did a date locate on the moment when he found out the car was stolen. Next, I did my normal massage technique and ran a lot of energy off the top of his head. He was done in less than 30 minutes and everything was handled.

Finally, two more people wanted treatments. I told them I was done for the night but I was going to see this group the next day, Sunday, in Fullerton at a dinner party they were having and that I would take care of them. All present claimed some sort of phychic abiltiy so they were my peers and they all said that I was gifted and had a special talent. My next post will cover what happened the next day plus a sort of job offer!

Yeh, Carmelo....you do so many interesting things. It just seems like you are on one lo-o-o-n-g vacation with your family. It's neat that you can afford to play everyday and do whatever you want. I sure wish I could do that.

Lakey, I've been reading your seesion reports all along though I have refrained from commenting on them thus far. But now I can't hold it in any longer.

I see you as having developed one AWESOME healing ability. Absolutely WELL DONE to you and the work you are doing. I wish you strength and success without bounds.

Congratulations!

I have a meta message in all these little posts.

live life to the fullest.

last night as I was walking around Capitola, with my feet in the sand and surf, looking out across Monterey Bay, very dark with no moon, but the Milky Way clear as can be, and the lights of the cities circling Monterey Bay, I was running a session on the lady who cleans my teeth four times a year. Tonight I was doing the same.

We were up this morning and out the door by 6:30. I was raised on a farm / ranch. I don't know any way but full at it.

My wife and I work seven days a week. Even if we're in Hawaii, Disneyland, or skiing, we have our cell phones and field calls whenever they come in.

On the other hand, we have always taken the time to work and play with our kids. I was raised that way. I was working beside my father from age 0 till I went to school. Our kids all got that hands on approach from us too.

On the vacation side, it is a whole lot easier to have many mini vacations than one long one. I'm ready to get back to work after three or four days. When I was a kid, my parents took me to Santa Cruz and Capitola beaches. I remember playing in the waves, just like our kids did, and now our grandchildren too.

The things I do, anyone can do. It is a matter of budgeting time, organizing activities, multi tasking, but really just getting out and doing. That is the vision I try to push. Get out and do things. Enjoy life. Don't sit around and watch TV.

If you want to add to your abilities, get some auditing from someone who will help you get what you want (not the Scientology program where you're a cog in the whole picture). There are loads of auditors and processes that do work, and can help you be and do what you want.

My wife and I were friends for a decade before we hooked up. Our second date was with her kids to see the Budweiser Clydesdales. I had seen them when I was a little kid. I had loved them ever since.

Not everybody likes kids like us. You can find your own special games to play with friends and family, and be your own magic selves (to borrow from John). It takes work and organization skills, and last but not least some good auditing and healthy exercise and eating practices.

Nothing, nothing, just comes to you. You have to envision it, and work to make it a reality. It is a great life, if you don't weaken.

The Dalai Lama Says...

Dalai Lama: "My true religion, my simple faith is in love and compassion. There is no need for complicated philosophy, doctrine, or dogma. Our own heart, our own mind, is the temple. The doctrine is compassion. Love for others and respect for their rights and dignity, no matter who or what they are - these are ultimately all we need."

A possible job offer

To continue my story about the massage technique I use, I will pick it up the next day at the Dinner Party in Fullerton. Edey immediately demanded her treatment which I gave and then came Dave, a guy around 50. His case was very interesting as follows...

Dave had a car accident 6 weeks earlier which messed up the left side of the neck. Then on the right side of his neck, there was a smaller messed up area not due to the car accident. Last, he had a trigger middle finger on his left hand where the finger was curling up and he could not straighten it.

I had him do a date/locate on the car accident, massaged the neck for 10 minutes or so without much talking and then tried to pull up a picture from the car accident. I got a faint picture of a short scene of maybe 3 or 4 seconds, I told him what I saw and he started isaing about it and started blowing charge about it. I believe the other driver had taken a large bit of some drug before driving and as a result, he plowed into Dave. Dave was upset that the police only checked for alcohol abuse so this guy was not locked up by the police. I place my hand on the top of his head and found a point where a lot of discharge was occuring, I held it and let the energy run through me into the ground. I then went back and massage the neck another 10 minutes or so, and it seemed like it was almost back to normal. I then cleared up the pain on the other side of the neck plus the locked finger. I did date locates on those and then found some content relating to the incidents which occurred just before those pen started. When I was done in just less than an hour, the guy was like a new man.

After Edey and Dave, Franky, the host of the party and one of Edey's best male friends wanted a session. He gives some sort of massage oriented energy therapy himself out of an office he has in the courtyard of a luxury hotel in downtown Fullerton. M., who I massaged Saturday, comes in twice a week and works at his office.

I gave Franky a massage session and succesfully picked off several thoughts of his and handled his out of alignment neck and back with ease in less than 30 minutes. He was highly impressed and wanted to do his routine on me which he did. First he had me bend over at a table and then he dug his elbow into my lower back on the right and there was a pop and something went into place then he repeated that on the right with another pleasant pop. He then placed his hand around my torso and without touching me made many unusual motions. I started to wobble and loose my balance and got a bit of disorientation and sea sickness. The treatment took about 15 minutes and I felt more energetic. He said that he detected a weak prostate and thyroid function and that his would help those.

A NEW CAREER FOR LAKEY?
I then gave another guy a routine session and then two more people want sessions from me. I had done 4 Saturday night and 4 Sunday night so I told them I was done for the night. As I was getting ready to leave, Franky approached me and gave me his card. He offered to let me work at his downtown Fullerton office and said he and M. have a large clientel and he could flow me a lot of clients. He is charging between $75 to $90 for a 45 minute session plus $140 for a preliminary interview and session which takes two hours. I said that I would love to work with him and I am supposd to go to his office and meet him early this week and iron out a deal and see what kind of exchange he wants for promoting me.

Also, at the house where the dinner party was held, the husband was out of town and I was talking to the wife and noticed a fully remodeled kitchen which I commented on. I told her that I was a remodeler. She got all excited and said that her husband specialized in only kitchen cabinets and granite and that his business was booming since he was doing work mostly for hotels and not individual home owners. She said that he is frequently asked to recommend a contractor but doesn't know anyone. She asked for my card and said that he will start refering me. I told her, I would work out a compensation fee for any work which they sent my way. I was blown away by the two offers related to me getting more work, especially the thought of doing the massage and pyschic healing technology but then it would also be nice to rebuild my remodeling business as well. I could soon return to having a nice income and that would be fantastic. Both of these job offers relate back to me being connected to Edey so our soul mates with no romance agreement is bearing fruit!

FANTASTIC, Lakey!

Sometimes we have to just get out of the way and let life happen. Being totally in control as an individual was a hubbard thing. It sends beings off in the wrong, knuckle-headed direction. Good for his GI, bad for ours.

For what it's worth, I have practically made a career (non paying, btw) out of being alert to, and finding jobs, situations, etc for friends and associates.

This comes from some philosophy that my mother, Margaret Mayes Horton, shared with me when I was a young man. She said the key was to "get them out!".

When pregnant, the main task was to get the baby out.

When the kid is in diapers - get them out of diapers and into shorts.

When in school, get them through school and out.

She said it applied in pretty near all facets of life - and to be sure not to forget to enjoy each and every phase as you experience it.

Gary/Lakey, my good friend, fare well and keep us posted!

FWIW, I do this often. I like to connect my connections. I enjoy being helpful and sociable.

Carmelo does this, too.

Actually, this is a very valuable ability to have and service to one's society to perform. Extremely valuable.

And for those who practice it, I hope you appreciate just how much true spiritual power it actually accrues to you

You might not have intended it to be so, but in actuality it empowers you

This because "relationships" and "connections or connectingness" is one of our key spiritual virtues and powers.

Which is a good, correct and proper thing to do all round: for self and for others.

This wouldn't be an ex scio response without a little funky tech.

There are people, marvelous people, with held down 7s, with odd ball quirks.

I had a girl friend once, who, so long as I was cheating on her, or thinking of dropping her, she was loyal and true blue. The moment I told her that I loved her, she dropped me like a hot potato. She told me, as she was moving out, that she had tried to warn me. Essentially, she needed to be abused. As long as I filled that role, she was steadfast. The moment I cleaned up my act, she was gone. She is still a friend, and, most telling, she is still in the Co$.

There is a school of thought that holds that over-reaching at a woman will cause her to withdraw, while acting a bit withdrawn and indifferent at times will cause her to reach. In other words, an attitude of "I like you, I think you're fun, but don't assume I can't find a replacement for you if I decide that hanging out with you is no fun any more". In my past, I've found this to work.

You will find a number of women rail against the above operating basis as being utterly false, but I adopt a system of "ignore what they say, watch what they do", and the above system appears to work in real life, in my personal experience.

 

[Enthetan]

Your comments on having a close friend of the opposite sex are very helpful to me. I seem to be in power in this area. I wanted romance and accepted friendships with so many beautiful women, starting with Bev Carter and Susan Todhunter at CCLA and continuing on today with Edey and Kadriya and several others. I am glad I chose to create those friendships when I found out romance was not there for me. So many people say that if the woman won't sleep with you then dump her and move on because you are just wasting your time. In my universe, this is and always has been bunk.

Carmelo astutely points out the various components which make up friendships, both spiritual and physical. With my first such friend, Susan Todhunter, our mutual love of classical music and all music in general made the decision a no brainer. To be invited to a recital by Susan and then have here sing an aria just for me, put me into some sort of state of ecstacy and unlike a sexual climax, this climax of that aria being sung for me is still climaxing. About 4 years after meeting Susan, I met her kid Sister, Joan. We had more alignment of personalities than I had with Susan. I wanted her for a lifelong friend regardless of what happened as regards any potential romance. After 8 or 9 years of friendship, we lost touch because of arbitraries introduced by the Church of Scientology. Just 3 days ago, that friendship was rekindled and I sure hope it lasts the rest of my life.

The fact that Edey says I am her best friend and I can do massages on her and give her sessions which help her out means a lot to me. It is easier to forego romance and have a female friend at 70 than at 30 and the fact that I have already had a family and have adult children also makes things a lot easier because the urge to create a family is no long a pressing factor. What it boils down to is sexual expression and at 70, that is easier to deal with than at 25 or 30. Nevertheless, I am surprised how strong the urge still is in me. It is no longer the pressing driving force which it once was. Purple Haze is a lady friend of mine where we can do enriching activities together from time to time without having a romantic affair. Why would anyone want to throw relationships such as these out the window. I treasure every one of them. I was able to bag a young beauty, Evy, and have children and raise a family with her. I admire her greatly and love the kids we raised together. Now that our marriage is broken up, I would be crushed if she was not still my friend, one of my best friends. I am making sure that we remain the best of friends whatever it takes, we are in new territory as friends just feeling out what we need and want from the other person in our new status as "just friends".

Carmelo says, "Having good friends who you want to spend time with is a blessing." What a neat and tidy summary of what to some is a very complex area. Thanks again Carmelo for helping so much to clarify this area of life!!
Lakey

It all depends on what you want. Given that there are a finite number of hours in your life, time spent with somebody who does not give you what you want and need, is time that is unavailable for looking for somebody who WILL give you what you want and need. A good operating basis would appear to be to reserve time to go looking for somebody who will satisfy your needs (and whose needs you yourself can satisfy, because it is a two-way flow), while enjoying the company of friends. See also my immediately prior posting.

Catching Up

Leon…Glad you’re okay and that, amazingly, not a single life was lost. Kiwi’s are Kool!

Carmelo…Good Stuff re: Capitola, the kids and family. Will you be my Daddy?

Ted, EP & Rog…”Connecting the dots” so to speak, is something I’ve done for most of my life. So many people have made a difference in my life by the timeliness of their thoughtfulness and kindness. I’ve seen some wonderful and “magical” things happen with others that I have helped in this way and it makes me happy to have been in a position to have done so…and has made for some wonderful long term friends.

Lakey…Very cool that you got to spend some time with Bent…he’s a first class being. IMO, you’ve reached a “way station” on your path…Very Well Done. You are a being of many gifts, which is obvious to all of Us. Remember, Colonel Sanders was in his 70’s before KFC really got going. To me, one of your greatest gifts is “Perspective” and that doesn’t manifest because of your age and experience; it manifests through it. That’s because Perspective comes with “Presence” and “Being Present” as experience flows by and around us.
