Being A Human On the Edge of Enlightenment: A Ray of Hope?

A Ray of Hope?

This article just came to my attention. If this new technology is workable and it does not get legislated out of existence or taxed beyond all reality, perhaps there is really a chance we can start to move away from Fossil fuels. Read on:

A UK company recently revealed the results of a top secret project it's been working on for the past four years: a synthetic fuel that could cause gas prices to plunge to $1.50 per gallon.

Developed at the prestigious Rutherford Appleton Laboratory near Oxford, Cella Energy CEO Stephen Voller claims that his company's hydrogen-based fuel produces no carbon emissions when burned, and could be the first step toward a transportation market that's unaffected by unstable oil prices.

"We have developed new micro-beads that can be used in an existing gasoline or petrol vehicle to replace oil-based fuels," Voller told Gizmag. "Early indications are that the micro-beads can be used in existing vehicles without engine modification."

If Cella Energy is able to produce this gas alternative on a commercial scale, it could be the missing link millions have been waiting for to help ease the pain of transition away from a fossil fuel-based economy.

Hydrogen, which produces only pure water when burned, is considered an ideal solution to cutting carbon emissions from petrol, which are estimated to cause 25 per cent of all carbon release. Until now, attempts to store it have not been consumer friendly so this has not been a viable option.

Currently "the only way to pack it [hydrogen] into a vehicle is to use very high pressures or very low temperatures, both of which are expensive to do. Our new hydrogen storage materials offer real potential for running cars, planes and other vehicles that currently use hydrocarbons on hydrogen, with little extra cost and no extra inconvenience to the driver", said Professor Stephen Bennington, lead scientist on the project for the UK's Science and Technology Facilities Council.

Becoming Aware

As I look around me at the world, I think about the things I have learned (personal experience) and the things I have been taught (other peoples experiences) To tell the honest truth I have learned much more in my life then I have ever been taught……but somehow I have been focused more on what I’m being taught then on what I am learning. This difference is subtle yet important.

Being taught is what happens in a classroom. Like automatons kids are TAUGHT what the powers that be want them to learn. I do really mean those words. We are not awakened to the limitless possibilities of human nature…. We are told what to believe and what is “fact”. My experience has told me that facts are only facts until they are dis-proven or shown to be only a first step in understanding.

One thing I was TAUGHT is that “RELIGION” was there to bring comfort to my soul and the soul of the world. The Religious organizations were always in a self professed struggle for our souls with the "powers of darkness"….and only adhering to their word would keep me on a path of righteousness so that I and we would be “acceptable” to the heavenly father. I want you to realize the significance of the fact we are called a “flock” or a “following” and we ACCEPT that term as something endearing and born in love.

Then I looked in my own life and my friends lives and I LEARNED that natural instinct is to want our children to reach and achieve more then we ever did. So am I to conclude the following..if the church speaks for the heavenly father, does the heavenly father want me, his child, to achieve nothing more then to perfect subservience? He does not wish for me what I wish for my own children? Does that make any sense, Or are the words I am being told to believe and follow the words of some person or group that wants to control me? Who's words ARE these and why do I give them more weight then my life's experience? Do I want to just follow leaders blindly and accept what is told to me by people in power ( religious leaders and heads of governments) or supposedly in the “know”or do I want to open my eyes and use my LEARNED life experience to guide me forward?

Have you ever contemplated that there is a vested interest in retaining the status-quo? You and I are to blame for this too because it's EASIER to accept what is told to you....but what about when you get that nagging feeling in your stomach that something just isn't adding up ... doesn't maintaining the status-quo explain allot of “stuff” they tell you not to think about or worry about (Roswell incident) or science that had been learned that was “too important” for the general public to know about (read about Nikola Tesla ) until it had been fully militarized. What great scientific advances are under wraps or just plain being discredited because they are in the public domain? Why don’t they encourage in earnest new scientific endeavors until they try to fully realize how it can be used as an offensive or defensive weapon?

It’s time to remove the wool that has been intentionally pulled over our eyes all these century’s. With the advent of the internet and the decentralization of storage on the web, it is becoming impossible for the continued control of what information you are given. The lies you have been told can now be debunked, the misdirections uncovered and the conspiracies revealed. They try to counter act this by going on the offense to debunk the debunkers or call the newer scientific advances frauds, which in turn has creating a war for your mind. The key word in that last phrase is YOUR mind.

All I hope to achieve with this blog is to have a space in which we can examine different views and bits of knowledge that are out there. My intention is to post things that interest me and might interest you too. Maybe even a place for the synergy of energy to bring like minds here to meet, talk and exchange views on the material presented here.

Thank you for the energy that you bring to this planet.

Namaste’
