I understand what you are saying, Luke. Our intention was to make this video speak to different centers. So we took much time to find the right images/videos for the the narration and also find the right music (from our subjective taste/point of view) that fit the narration and images/videos. There is a lot of detail that went into making this film and it took us longer than the UFO documentary since there are many different topics covered.

We didn't want this to be just information for the intellectual center, but also get an emotional reaction through sounds and images. None of it is randomly chosen, but music, narration, quotes and visuals are all synced up with different moods, dynamics and ambient to make it flow nicely. It's all layered and everyone also sees it in a different way depending what one is focused on when watching it or how one responds to it.

Excellent video Spiral Out!

And your comment above is a good explanation: making the video "speak to different centers" - IMO, this video is made for just that purpose, to stop and go back, listen again, and not just be another focused "read through". From my untrained eye, I could sense that these were not just random video cuts and music pieces, but care was put into it. Good job!

I'm thinking of the audience - even if some of the details are missed because of what some others may have described as 'distracting' music and visual, that is ok, as it will arouse interest to the seeker, and the seeker will go back to it. Enough nuggets will stick to the viewer IMO :)

I will use this in my wage work where I help learners in areas of management/leadership skills which includes self-awareness and self-development. If I get the opportunity to use this in some way with any of my private customers, I will be asking for your paypal acct to donate something to you :)

I just finished it, and I gotta say great job!!

I only have one comment. Somewhere at the end you said "Many are called, few are chosen." But I'm not really getting what you mean with ''chosen'', chosen by who? The C's said the following on this: "What is chosen? Only you can choose. The choice comes by nature and free will and looking and listening. Where you are is not important. Who you are is and also what you see."
And, I was reminded of this:

Q: (P) I think we are creating a possibility that would not have existed if we had NOT come together here.

A: Yes, but that is generally true in most similar circumstances. The question is the degree to which there is significance.

Q: (I) How significant a possibility are we creating here now?

A: That is for you to see.

Q: (I) So, we don't know. We sense something very important about changing the universe. (L) I think that it is also up to us, individually and as a group, to choose how we respond to the upcoming events. The saying "many are called, few are chosen" should be rephrased to say "Many are called, but few choose to answer the call." (P) Everyone is called! (L) Yes. But so many succumb to the attacks, can't overcome the blocks and barriers, and choose to continue to view life in mundane, surface terms. When push comes to shove, how many really DO answer. It is a very subtle thing to read the signs and "see the unseen" in the morass of conflicting signals that the 3rd density reality sends to block our vision. (P) Yes. Animals have an abundance of young in order that some will survive. I think there is an abundance of us so that some WILL wake up. The odds are against it, so there HAS to be an abundance of us that have come back for this reason.

This was a topic of discussion at one point since words and implied meanings can be subjective and confusing; but given the circumstance and context of it in the video, we felt the underlying message was loud and clear, regardless of semantics.

So in this sense "chosen" is used as both a verb and an adjective.
Verb: a past participle of choose.
Adj: selected from several; preferred

Perhaps this will clarify:
The crisis we all face in the world requires that people step forward and take action.
In this sense, those who truly See and Feel the crisis are called to act through whatever capacity they are able to through an inherent responsibility of conscience. But not everyone is necessarily chosen for a number of reasons (discussed in the video under 'reality creation'), regardless if they "choose to answer the call".

Perhaps social circumstance threw them off the path.
Perhaps their perspectives are not aligned with the higher divine will.
Perhaps their level of Being is yet insufficient to adequately be a candidate for choosing.
Perhaps they didn't have faith in themselves to step up to the call or follow through, so they did not have an inner self-choosing.

(And these smaller actions which are not necessarily "chosen" doesn't mean they are futile, per se, since no effort is wasted and it all adds up in retrospect. But this is another discussion entirely.)

For these reasons and more, "many are called, but few are chosen", conventionally speaking. :)

This was a topic of discussion at one point since words and implied meanings can be subjective and confusing; but given the circumstance and context of it in the video, we felt the underlying message was loud and clear, regardless of semantics.

The message was clear indeed; not everyone will be able to pick up what's going on and/or do something about it.

You say, ''are called to act'' and then ''not everyone is necessarily chosen'', when I think more logically would be ''not everyone necessarily Sees and Understands the crisis as it is and thus are not able to or do not act properly'' and then naming possibilities why they could not. So, I guess what you're trying to say is: not chosen by the circumstances and the state of being one is in?

On one level I understand that in order to truly Choose, one must know about the reality one lives in and see what one can choose from, and these choices are hidden away from man with a purpose (as explained in the Wave), so when man does not Know he can Choose, the choices are made for him, by coincidence you could say (as G. put it: everything happens), and by design (food for the moon). On another level, we do live in a Free Will Universe, or so it seems, and I personally do think that there has been made a choice by every being in some way. People not being ready to be a warrior, so to speak, may not be because they did not have ''an inner self-choosing'', but because they are there where it is naturally appropriate for them to be there lessons-wise or you could say that they have chosen to learn different lessons than the ones learned by most warriors. And of course in life, they may ''change'' their choices, just as those who chose to wake up in this life fall astray instead.

I still think using different words to describe this would have been more clear, nonetheless, as I said before, the overall message is clear and this is just a small detail.

I've been watching our video again after stepping away from it for a couple of weeks and wanted to some share and acknowledge some things.

First of all this video (as well the others we did) couldn't have been done without what I've learned over the years through Laura's work, the network on here, the suggested reading material as well as the great connections on Facebook. So thank you to you all.

On a personal level, much of what I talk about in this video and have written about are not just recited ideas and concepts, but also reflect what I've experienced in my life through my own suffering.

Be it in terms of relationships and my own confusion about love, having mistaken it for many things, up to believing in New Age fluff stuff, lack of external consideration and pushing information on people who didn't ask for it or dealing with my own shadow. For example, I certainly have been encountering the psychic vampire in relationships. In particular the female vampire has been a theme and pattern in some of my relationships in the past and my role in it, which had drained me a lot, over-extending myself and beating myself up with guilt and regret. Reading that chapter in "Unholy Hungers" has been a tremendous eye opener in that regard. But I also wasn't always the victim as my own predator, self-importance and psychic vampire also got engaged in certain relationships (not just the romantic kind), resulting in feeding.

So, the whole process of what I wrote and narrated has also been an emotional process for me. I found that writing my blogs and eventually doing these videos with the help and amazing creative input of de-tached helped me to understand it all better, more objectively. While the UFO video was more based on other people's reserach and experiences, this video has been more personal to me. During the process of making this video, some things from my past came up as well as for de-tached, so we talked about how these topics addressed in the film relate to our personal lives, kinda like "yep, been there, done that."

In other words, although I speak in "third person" at times in the video and talk about "people", these "people" also include me at certain times in my life. I've been shedding some tears when watching the video again. After the long and hard work of making it (it took us almost four months), it feels like a big stone fell from my heart and was able to let go of some things. It was very heart-opening and triggered my vulnerability in my already emotional sensitive nature (Moon in Cancer, Ascendant in Cancer, Venus in Pisces with Sun in Aquarius according to my astrology natal chart).

I think my own inner drive to find healing (consciously and/or unconsciously) from the suffering and my life experiences has helped in the process of writing and making this video, although it doesn't come across as "personal" for the viewer/reader. This has become clearer to me as I watched it again.

Of course, "The Work" never stops and there is always more to learn and integrate, layers to shed, illusions to burst and knowledge to gain. But there has also been an increase of empathy, compassion and even something that is maybe true Love, at least some moments of it. It's been quite a ride over the last couple of years and I feel much gratitude and appreciation for what I've learned through my own suffering and the suffering of others as well as the help and mirror/feedback from friends and family and the contriubtions and work by the amazing minds on here and at SOTT. We're all works in process, each in their own way, and despite the grim state of the world at times, I do have hope and the feeling that all is going to turn out all right...whatever that may be. No effort is in vain!

Just wanted to share this more personal note. Excuse my emotional flavor, but it's been quite emotional for me as of late. I'd like to give out a virtual hug to everyone.

Hi Spiral Out,

Thank you so much for having taken the time to share that with us.

Hi Spiral Out,

Thank you so much for having taken the time to share that with us.

I thank you as well, Spiral Out.
Yes, it has been emotional lately. Many, many changes both individually and cosmically, and our bodies are processing like crazy!

 

[Jefferson]

....there has also been an increase of empathy, compassion and even something that is maybe true Love, at least some moments of it....

I'll chime in with SM and Gandalf and thank you SpiralOut for reflecting and sharing your thoughts. That one sentence you wrote above stood out the most for me as it also describes what I've been slowly going through over the past while, even though at times it really is a matter of experiencing, as you said "some moments of it" at a time.

 

[eternusphoenix]

Spiral Out,
I want to thank you for sharing this moment of vulnerability. It's inspiring to me as I slowly crawl out of my Cancerian shell and learn to open up a bit more and to simply be accepting of who I am and where I'm at.

 

[3DStudent]

Thanks for making the video. I really enjoyed watching it, I just haven't got around to posting this. I can tell that the words in the video were made with an understanding of them. I don't think y'all could have explained it better without a living knowledge of the topics.

It was a little emotional for me too in the beginning. Thanks for sharing your afterthoughts Spiral Out. I enjoy these videos and was wondering if there's a place to make donations?

 

[de-tached]

[...] I enjoy these videos and was wondering if there's a place to make donations?

While the videos will always be free, if anyone would like to help contribute toward helping us get better equipment (my computer is an old PC on its last leg) to make fully independent movies which spread knowledge, raise awareness, and support the work here which can be widely distributed and submitted to film festivals to make an even BIGGER impact, feel free to donate on Paypal to de.tached@yahoo.com .

Thank you for your kindness and support!
