"No feats of heroism are needed to bring about the greatest and most important changes in the life of humanity, neither the arming of millions of men, nor the construction of new railways, nor Trade Unions, nor revolution, nor ... All that is needed is the change in public opinion."

Eden for me, is completely free of pre-judgements.. It is an existence void of suffering and fear.. Not just for you and me, but for all life forms..

So many times I have heard the story of the fisher(wo)man's dream.. His/her vision of paradise next to a peaceful(?) lake, full of fish..

But this is indeed clearly a warped view of paradise.. - I ask, what kind of place would it be where you're life ends with a hook in your throat? Certainly not Eden..

"Oh great Spirit, whose breath gives life to all the world, hear me. I need your strength and wisdom.. Let me walk in beauty, and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset.. Make my hands respect the things you have made, and my ears sharp to hear your voice.. Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people. Let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock.. I seek strength, not to be greater than my brothers and sisters, but to fight my greatest enemy - myself.. Make me always ready to come to thee with clean hands and straight eyes.. so when life fades, as the fading sunset, my spirit may come to you without shame.."

Nope.. In Eden, there are no vampires.. There are no bloodsucking insects.. There are no Zombie dawn of the living dead, Flesh Eaters.. No hunters, no butchers.. In Eden there is no Venom in snakes.. There are no claws, razored

"All your duties are included in this: Do nothing to others that would pain you if it were done to you" - Mahabharata

teeth in vice like jaws, no talons and hooked beaks.. Even the roses have no thorns.. As neither do the blackcurrent bushes.. Think about it.. observe.. After the earth has been raped, she is sore and hurt.. The first thing she puts out are fields of impenetrable brambles.. It is as if she is saying "Don't touch me here!!"..

"Not one of you will be a true believer who does not wish for his brother the same that he wishes for himself" - Sunnatt

But still she gives out fruit.. And once she is healed, the forest will regrow and the brambles will disappear..

In Eden there are no predators, parasites, perverts and politicians.. There are no sleazy back street alleys.. No cookers and microwaves and polluting factories..

"Do unto others all that you would have them do unto you, because this is the sum of the law and of the prophets" - Gospel of St. Matthew

In Eden, there is no money.. Neither is their bartering.. no exchange.. Exchange involves accounting (I'll give you this, if you give me that.. or do this for me..).. No, there is no exchange.. Only sharing.. No body owns anything, so nothing is anyones to give in the first place..

These words are part of a book that I am working on. I am unsure how far away I am from completion as my use of computer is sporadic and words don't always flow easily. Feel free to Email Me if you have comments or wish to put an order in for a copy. Otherwise please also consider signing my Guest Book, and share some thoughts with me..
