Editors Letter
WELCOME TO THIS ISSUE OF CHOICE POINT MAGAZINE
W
hat a very busy summer it has been. In June we visited the ISSSEEM conference (Institute for the Study of Subtle Energy and Energetic Medicine), then in July it was the Noetics conference: both
conferences offered terrific insights into how science is bursting forth with more and more information to show how energy works to help our health and wellbeing, how this new emerging science will be our future and how much more open this information is, and accessible to the main stream, like never before. Perhaps now the tipping point is reaching its limit and a new era is starting. Choices are being made because now seems to be the time to make things happen differently. Both conferences left one feeling elated and inspired, with the likes of Amit Goswami, Bruce Lipton, Rupert Sheldrake, Lynne Twist, Deepak Chopra and many, many others all sharing what they have been working on, and what is coming up time and time again in regard to consciousness. These people are well researched, they can’t all be wrong. So now I guess it’s more than time for us, humanity, to pull together and do something to help change happen.
In early August something very odd happened in the UK. Was it the lack of sunshine, or the lack of love, money, caring, morality, example? Whatever it was it kicked up a storm and segments of the youth of Britain took to the streets causing damage and destruction for, what appeared to the onlooker, the sake of it. Well, was that the case I wonder? We have all pondered this question – what drives an individual to behave in what we know to be an antisocial manner? Well the politicians

scratched their heads, the police made arrests, the judges handed out harsh sentences, but still remaining was the big ‘why’? What drives people to this extreme? It seems, as far as our government are concerned, the answer is a lemon – not one of the politicians in power have come up with anything useful by way of either explanation or resolve. Well, I think we should maybe think about this differently. We are all responsible for society and the behaviour of society. These vandals and thugs are a product of what we have collectively created - greed, scarcity, class systems, lack and no moral leadership - no love, this to me is the recipe for a disaster. We live in separation, we judge, yet we are one. So how does this work? Interestingly, science journalist and author Lynne McTaggart was available for an interview for this issue of Choice Point and with her work on The Intention Experiment she came up with some very interesting stories about her own experiments that show rather clearly that collective consciousness can have a very positive effect on behaviour with the right intention being at the core of the experiment. So really, the answer is not that difficult. Start acting as one, start maybe looking into society to see how each of us can bring back a bit of community, care and compassion – and most of all, sharing.
I’m sorry this introduction letter seems a bit on the heavy side, but things globally are not looking that great for many, so I hope that when reading this issue you will be inspired by the articles and information and that you will want to help your own society and community to make steps to becoming one and let’s watch it grow! Particularly young people who are, after all, our tomorrow.
I’ll end with this rather powerful African proverb, which I think sums it up: If the young are not initiated into the village, they will burn it down just to feel its warmth.
