사월초파일 등불 밝히는 이유 ___________
화엄경에
믿음을 심지삼고 자비를 기름으로 삼으며
생각을 그릇으로 하고 공독을 빛으로 하여
삼독(탐내고 성내고 어리석음)을 없앤다고 말씀하셨고
대열반경에는
중생은 번뇌의 어두움 때문에 지혜를 잃는데 비해
여래는 방편으로 지혜의 등을 켜니
모든 중생을 열반에 들게한다고 하였다.
그것은 모든 중생의 번뇌와 삼독으로 인해
불성보배를 보지 못하고 있음을 표명한 것이며
부처님께서는
곧 법신 보신 화신의 삼신 모습으로
이 세상에 나투시어 중생들이 지혜로서
평안하게 살아갈 수 있는 길을 인도하여 주신 것이다.
등불을 밝히는 마음가짐
1. 부처님께서 오신 성탄절을 진심으로 봉축하며 불은에 감사 드립니다.
2. 부처님의 진리의 빛에 귀의하고 정진하겠습니다.
3. 부처님의 밝은 해탈세계에 이르고자 중생의 어두운 무명번뇌를 맑히겠습니다.
4. 중생의 삼독심(탐심 진심 치심)을 녹여 부처님 지혜 광명을 얻도록 노력 하겠습니다.
5. 등불이 주위의 어두움을 밝히듯 친지와 이웃에게 이익되는 사람이 되겠습니다.
6. 바르고 큰 원력을 세워서 부처님 큰 가피를 내리시길 기원 드립니다.
A rare species of gecko that can only be found on the island of Madagascar, the Satanic Leaf Tailed Gecko is noted for its large, flat tail that resembles a leaf. The scientific name of its species, phantasticus, is Latin for “imaginary”, and it was given this name because upon their discovery, naturalist George Albert Boulenger described the lizards as “mythical”. So this week, we’re making these little lizards our animal of choice. READ/SEE more: http://www.bite.ca/bitedaily/2013/03/animal-of-the-week-the-satanic-leaf-tailed-gecko/
This heartbreaking picture - taken by Eilish Reding Palmer - represents some of the critical work of HAWK Center (Helping Arkansas Wild "Kritters") of Russellville, Arkansas, helping to rescue wildlife from the toxic tar sands oil spill by ExxonMobile. If you have some spare change, they could use it right now.
Please share this photograph, share the reality of OIL PIPELINES with as many others as you can, and give your support to the Hawk Center.
Cognitive Dissonance: The fact that our society fails to collectively acknowledge ecoterrorism, so it can yammer on about moralistic issues that change nothing that ails us. That is not an accident, but continuing to fall for it is our bigger disorder. This is normalized mental illness on a cultural scale.

Profiteers have convinced us that WE THE PEOPLE are addicted to oil, because it guarantees that a superior, sustainable system doesn't derail their air tight, debt based system. Victimizers psychologically manipulate their victims to consistently BLAME THEMSELVES instead of the actual ABUSER. Sustainable techs are hidden, because they empower individuals to opt out of their system entirely if they choose to. We are not addicted. THEY are addicted to power, and are projecting their drug addled manipulations onto us. It's a mind control war, and the blood spilled is no less real. THIS is the greater "US" and "THEM" power dynamic. -AdminAir
POLITICS, when examined under the microscope, reveals the parasitic attack of several species of corporate tick [formal name: Ixodes]. Here we can clearly see 5 species threatening to suck the life out of their victim. They're Formal Scientific names are: Ixodes Biotech, Ixodes Pharmaceutical, Ixodes Petroleum, Ixodes Nuclear, and Ixodes Weapons.
BEWARE- they spread countless diseases, and eco-devastation. They feed off of many things, but currently their primary host is the Two-Headed Hydra of the two party, U.S. political system.
I think this is a simple enough message, eh?
State Department’s Keystone XL “Study” Now Doubly Exposed as a Hoax. The STUDY on the proposed XL Pipeline was released by John Kerry’s State Department on March 4th. It was actually written by a contractor that Hillary’s State Department arranged for TransCanada to hire, TransCanada is the Canadian-Koch partnership that will build and operate the pipeline which will generate an estimated $4 billion annual profits to TransCanada if President Obama’s grants approval.
Brad Johnson first exposed this hoax of a “study” at the environmental website grist.org, and at the “Green Blog” of Huffington Post, both on March 6th, but his report has been ignored in the mainstream press, such as The New York Times and Washington Post. Johnson’s sensational exposé was covered in only one TV medium: Current TV. America’s “news” media are not reporting the truth about this “State Department” “study”: It’s a horrid and dangerous hoax – doubly so now. It is intended to deceive, and for a very clear financial purpose.
As to why Hillary Clinton’s State Department had done this (commissioned this fake revised study, after their original sponsored study had been roundly condemned by environmentalists), or why the major “news” media refused to report that it’s a hoax, those questions are unanswered, but something is profoundly wrong with this country’s “free press,” and with all of the major “news” media, because they all are protecting a hoax.

Got to thinking about something: It would be so nice if all of us here in our community of over 16,000 people from around the world who are like us --who actually understand and care that the earth is destabilizing --could come together in masse to make significant world changing changes for the better.
Watch this documentary. You need to make time for it. one of the most comprehensive important videos we have ever seen. Pull up a chair and dedicate some time to it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuMVk4SU_us
It would also be nice to kick people off the planet who don't believe that things like what is pictured here hurts the planet and ultimately hurts us.
The people who deny climate change are draining. They have been for years. They sap the energy of brilliant minds who should be coming together to fix the problem.
We have discovered that the people who are so wildly against change for the better are affiliated with industries doing the most damage to the planet. We have spent years and years tied up in theoretical debates with them. This is silly, a complete waste of time that keeps status quo happening which is exactly what they want. People who deny climate change cause the wheels of change in a more positive direction to just spin around and around with no forward direction.
Meanwhile, the planet IS changing and just like the nuclear energy's poison, the things that cause climate change have no "immediate" effect so the mass consumerism that we are guilty of doing today combined with industry greed from all ends of the earth--that damage won't be seen for years from now. By that time, damage done, no turning back. That is why we need to fix things NOW.
PEOPLE WHO RECOGNIZE THAT WE NEED BIG CHANGE PLEASE WATCH AND SHARE THIS VIDEO. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuMVk4SU_us
People still denying, wake up by watching this video, or get the hell out of the way.
Climate change is for real. There is nothing to debate. If we want to have a remote chance of salvaging anything, we need to join togethe
Thank you Deep Green Resistance.

From a year ago this month: The EPA said that the widely used herbicide 2,4-D (used by many lawn companies today) would remain on the market, denying a petition from an environmental group that sought to revoke the chemical’s approval.
Various studies suggest exposure to 2,4-D can cause cancer, hormone disruption, genetic mutations and neurotoxicity. These results have been ignored by the EPA.
***Use of the chemical is expected to grow substantially in the coming years because Dow is seeking federal approval to sell seeds of corn genetically engineered to be resistant to 2,4-D.***
Farmers planting that corn would be able to spray 2,4-D on their fields to kill weeds without hurting the crop, although it could end up hurting the people eating the crops but that's not a concern of Dow or any other of the companies out there interested in making an easy buck.
Dow Chemical is thought to be the major manufacturer, though the E.P.A. has also approved versions from Nufarm, an Australian company, and Agro-Gor, a joint venture of PBI/Gordon of Kansas City, Mo., and Atanor of Argentina.
-------------
CHECK THIS OUT --THIS IS SICK (Not in a good way either)
It goes to show just how corrupt our gov agencies are, run by corporate interests.
In its ruling to allow herbicide 2,4-D, the E.P.A. said that while some studies cited suggested that high doses of the chemical could be harmful, they said these results were contradicted by other studies.
THEY FAILED TO MENTION/ LOOK INTO onE IMPORTANT THING...
The study that said 2,4-D is perfectly fine was financed by the manufacturers and conducted by none other than Dow Chemical!!
SICK, SICK, SICK

Biotech giant Syngenta has been criminally charged with denying knowledge that its genetically modified (GM) Bt corn kills livestock during a civil court case when in fact their own study showed that their Bt Corn killed cows. http://www.occupymonsanto360.org/2013/03/02/syngenta-charged-for-covering-up-livestock-deaths-from-gm-corn/
From Hawaii
LIHU‘E — The Kaua‘i County Council had many concerns after hearing the same lobbying firm hired by Mayor Bernard Carvalho Jr.’s administration to represent the county’s interests at the state Legislature had also been hired by Syngenta to lobby at the Capitol.
According to the state Ethics Commission, Pacopac and Matsuura have been lobbying for Syngenta since 2009. Additionally, the National Institute on Money in State Politics lists both men as lobbyists for the Hawai‘i Superferry in 2006.
Councilman Tim Bynum said the Hawai‘i Crop Improvement Association lobbied for a number of bills that would strip legislative power from counties. Pacopac said he does not work for HCIA, but responded affirmatively when Bynum asked if HCIA President Mark Phillipson was the general manager for Syngenta Hawai‘i.
one of those bills, Senate Bill 727, would erase from state law a provision that says, “Each county shall have the power to enact ordinances deemed necessary to protect health, life and property (of their citizens).”
