The Hindu Concept of 4 Yugas

According to Hindu scriptures, all mortal beings are destined to pass through four great epochs in every cycle of creation and destruction. This divine cycle turns full-circle at the end of what is known as kalpa. A kalpa is a yuga cycle, which is a period of 10,000 divine years, and is divided into four ages or yugas (Sanskrit yuga = age/epoch). According to one calculation, one yuga cycle is estimated to be 4,320,000 years, and one kalpa 4,320,000,000 years.
About the 4 Yugas
The four great epochs in Hinduism are: Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dwapar Yuga and Kali Yuga. Satya Yug or the Age of Truth is said to last for four thousand divine years, Treta Yuga for three thousand, Dwapara Yug for two thousand and Kali Yuga will last for one thousand divine Years that equals to 432,000 earthly years.
It is also believed that three of these great ages have already passed away, and we are now living in the fourth one. We live in the Kali Yuga — in a world infested with impurities and vices. People possessing genial virtues are diminishing day by day. Floods and famine, war and crime, deceit and duplicity characterize this age. But, say the scriptures, final emancipation is possible only in this age. Kali Yuga will end at 21 December 2012 and we will move to Satya Yuga, the Age of Truth.
The four ages symbolize the four phases of involution during which man gradually lost the awareness of his inner selves and subtle bodies. Hinduism believes that human beings have five kinds of bodies, called annamayakosa, pranamayakosa, manomayakosa vignanamayakosa and anandamayakosa, which represent the ‘gross body’, the ‘breath body’, the ‘psychic body’, the ‘intelligence body’ and the ‘bliss body’ respectively.
Another theory explains these epochs of time on the basis of the degree of loss of righteousness in the world. It says, during Satya Yuga only truth prevailed (Sanskrit Satya = truth), Treta lost ¼ truth, Dwapar lost ½ truth and Kali is left with only ¼ truth. Evil and dishonesty has replaced truth in the last three ages or yugas.
How to Create Shamanic Trance Drum Beats

Shamanic trance dance music is intended to induce a trance-like state of mind in the listener or dancer. Shamanic traditions have, for a long time, used drums and drum rhythms to achieve and enhance such a trance-like state. Constant drum rhythms, as used in shamanic trance music, have a direct effect upon the brain function and mood of the involved listener, and this can allow a shaman to reach an altered state of mind. This, in turn, can facilitate a shamanic out-of-body experience.
- Establish a steady pulse. Like a heartbeat, trance music has a steady pulse which does not slow down or speed up. Play the drum (with your hands or with drum sticks), in a steady, unchanging pulse like a regular heartbeat or walking rhythm.
- Add subdivisions of the beat. For each pulse-note, you can play two, three, or four equal beats. Vary these rhythmic subdivisions to create rhythmic interest and new patterns.
- Repeat your beat patterns several times. Trance music works on repetition, so keep an individual rhythmic pattern going for some considerable time before moving on to a new or different pattern. The underlying pulse of the music stays the same throughout.
- Use dynamics (getting louder or quieter) to change the mood of the drumming trance music. This in turn will affect the mood of the shaman or listener.

Higher Vibrational Frequencies

Your personal energy field/matrix
Since your true essence is energy, your energy field makes up the essence of who you are. Therefore all things that alter your energy field become very important to identify for they can help create your reality. Energy is the way you interface with the Universe around you and therefore it is the way in which you create.
All things that enter your field alter you in some way. Your field is altered with every thought that enters your head and every person you encounter. In some way every experience you have had alters who you are. In fact you are really the sum of all your experiences and that is what you refer to as your personality. Your personality, or energy field, is carried with you from one lifetime to the next. In communicating with those who have graduated, does it surprise you to find that even though they have left their lessons and energy stamps on the Gameboard, they still carry their core personality?
The Quickening
What is happening to many of you right now is that due to the increased energies present, the etheric body is vibrating at a higher frequency. The physical body is then trying to catch up but it hasn’t quite yet done so. This results in a speeding up of your molecular structure. Many people are now experiencing this as a quickening taking place within your own bodies. This stepping up of energies is affecting every system in your body – nerves, muscles, vessels, skin, organs and glans as they try to adapt to the new frequencies.
Synchronistic vibration
As you choose to move into the reality of love and your true power, these are some of the signs you will notice of the vibrational change. You may stand at a counter to purchase an item. You are standing there and you’re visible. You’re not invisible. But nobody waits on you. They wait on everybody else around you until finally you say ‘wait a minute, I’m here too.’ Yes, they saw you but they didn’t connect with you. Why? Were you a lesser person? Did you not have a presence? The simple answer is your vibration was not in sync with theirs. Even though you were visible your presence was not a reality to them.
If you ever feel you are not a part of ‘the experience’ taking place around you it is because your vibrational rate is moving out of sync with the experience and of the people around you.
Electo-magnetic Energy
What you are, indeed, is a grand embodiment of electromagnetic energy. That is, every facet of you, your physical body, your consciousness, your thoughts and beliefs and your emotional beingness are all entwined to create a body of energy which is likened unto a magnet. This energy has a resonance, a vibrational frequency which draws to itself that which matches its own frequency. As you go about your day to day life, you create in your perceived reality those situations which reflect to you your own beliefs about who you are and how the universe is. The frequencies or resonances match. So, if you desire to bring about change in your day to day life, the simple fact is that you must change the frequency that you are.

Why is Marijuana Illegal? | Examining the Health Aspects of Cannabis

Countless studies have highlighted the industrial and medicinal uses of marijuana (cannabis), yet the federal government claims that it has ‘no accepted medical use’ and continues to classify it in the same category as heroin, MDMA, and PCP. Despite the ruling, the medical marijuana market is priced at around $1.7-billion — that’s almost as much as the explosive Viagra market, coming in at around $1.9 billion.
Why do so many individuals suffering from disease swear by marijuana if it has no real medical use? And furthermore, were the thousands of studies on the medicinal benefits of marijuana completely incorrect?
Studies have found marijuana use to be beneficial in treating multiple sclerosis, Tourette syndrome, obsessive-compulsive disorder, brachial plexus neuropathies, insomnia, pain, memory disorders, anxiety disorders, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, and many more conditions.
Research has shown marijuana to be beneficial to health, yet Marijuana has been classified as dangerous by the federal government, outlawed, and made illegal. Many pharmaceuticals, on the other hand, have gone unchecked despite causing more fatalities than traffic accidents. In fact, even slightly more than the recommended dose of Tylenol can kill you, while THC-free hemp will simply boost your immune system.
You do not have to smoke marijuana to enjoy its benefits. THC-free hemp, which comes without any mind-altering effects, is a great health superfood that is used by many. For the government to classify marijuana in the same category as heroin and PCP while allowing deadly pharmaceuticals to go unregulated shows how little they truly care about public health.
