Creative Life Principles

0: Believe nothing, entertain possibilities
(therefore everything therafter is offered playfully)

1: Imagination lays the tracks for reality to follow

2: Better to create prophecy than to live prediction
(whatever makes us passive is toxic. whatever makes us active is tonic.
this is the difference between predictions which make us passive and
prophecy which is active co-creation with the Divine.

3: The Invisible world would like to help us but spiritual etiquette
requires that we ask.
(help is always available-operators are standing by)

4:if something is a problem, make it bigger
(blow it up really big and then look at it)

5:we only possess the power of an insight when we give it expression

6: creativity comes from the wedding of Paradox
(we aspire to be Disciplined Wild People who are Radical
Traditionalists)

(some words of wisdom to be passed amongst the tribes......)sharing our
hearts together......... akasha

# 10/12: 7pm EFF Event on E-voting at 111 Minna St. Gallery!
BayFF Event - Join Us for "E-voting and the Upcoming Election" on
Democracy is government by the people, and the right to vote is
critical to determining what each of us
wants of our government. Nearly one quarter of American voters - more
than 35 million people - will
exercise that right using electronic voting (e-voting) terminals in
this election. Unfortunately, due to
equipment that has been hastily developed and poorly tested, your right
to vote is in greater jeopardy
than ever before. There are widespread reports of voting terminal
failures, and growing concern about
the (in)security of these machines is fueling fierce debate over how to
ensure the integrity of
our elections. EFF is working to ensure that votes are verifiable and
to train poll workers about
what to do when the machines fail. Come listen to our team leaders talk
about the latest
developments, and share your thoughts on how we can make sure that
every vote is counted. WHO: Cindy Cohn, EFF Legal Director
