		<description><![CDATA[The numbers of children being diagnosed with autism in the last ten years is skyrocketing. Medical science uses this diagnosis to explain behavior that doesn't fit the norm. I see it from another perspective. Could these children be the living bridges between two worlds? Could they be next age humans?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have written about Indigo children being an indication that humans are evolving to the next level of consciousness &#8211; unity consciousness. These <a href="http://nextnewage.com/the-new-kids-have-arrived/"title="new kids diagnosed ADHD"  target="_blank">Indigos often get diagnosed as ADHD</a>. There is another sector of the new kids that are being diagnosed with a more complex condition. One that medical science calls PDD or pervasive development disorders. Better known as autism.</p>
<p><a href="http://nextnewage.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/autism-living-between-two-worlds.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-126" title="autism-living-between-two-worlds" src="http://nextnewage.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/autism-living-between-two-worlds.jpg" alt="" width="290" height="193" /></a></p>
<p>Autism, according to the Autism Society of America, affects approximately 1.5 million Americans and is growing at a startling rate of 10-17% a year. So why is this so prevalent now. Is it because it was misdiagnosed or is there another reason. We love to put people in a box and have a label for conditions and disorders that are outside the norm. Could it be that these children are really just examples of the new humans who are wired differently.</p>
<p>Do these children have the ability to see other dimensions? Do they communicate in a non-verbal way? Do they have the attributes of the new human that I have described in previous articles? Is their perspective on life just different? Does this &#8220;neurodiversity&#8221; make them disabled? Who gets to judge what typical is?</p>
<p>Autistics, as they are called, have been reported to be super intelligent, many having photographic memories. Even some adult autistics sometimes speak of themselves as being a superior species. I would call it an evolved species. There are lots of stories about great things being accomplished by people that have been diagnosed with autism. Maybe they are the bridges between the two levels of consciousness that I have described. Maybe they are more entrenched in the new consciousness, making it harder for them to function in the old one. Maybe they are on a different wavelength. We label them as different or as having an disorder because they don&#8217;t behave in the typical manner. Are they simply a different way of being a human?</p>
<p>These descriptions sound very similar to the description I have given of Indigos. They act differently because they are wired differently. They have a different perspective on how life is to be lived. In duality consciousness with our penchant for judgment we will judge behavior like autism as &#8220;not normal&#8221; and treat the individual as such. We administer drugs like the ones given to children judged as ADHD and even lock them away from society under the premise that it is for their own good.</p>
<p>The new children&#8217;s &#8220;different&#8221; behavior fits the characteristics of autism perfectly. On the National Institute of Neurological Disorders web site they list the characteristics of autism to be.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Impaired social interaction</strong> &#8211; What is the definition of social interaction? Is it possible they can&#8217;t relate to our behaviors that, to them, seem out of harmony with nature and often times frivolous?</li>
<li> <strong>Problems with verbal communication</strong> &#8211; Who doesn&#8217;t have problems with verbal communication. Verbal communication is imperfect. There is so much room for misinterpretation. The shortfalls of verbal communications are played out every day in families, schools, workplaces, governments and media worldwide. The separateness of language that we have developed makes verbal communication with humans from other parts of the earth difficult if not impossible. Verbal communication, I believe, is an attribute of the old energy. In our evolution to the next level we will practice non-verbal communication. It is much more exacting. Actions are much truer than words. Feelings, intuitions and possibly telepathic communication will replace the spoken word. Problems with communication? No, autisitics are just ahead of us.</li>
<li> <strong>Repetitive behaviors of narrow obsessive interests</strong> &#8211; I laugh at that one because how many &#8220;normal&#8221; people have narrow obsessive interests. Some autistics can look at a wall or a speck of dust and stare at it for hours. What are they seeing. Maybe a whole world that we can&#8217;t see that is much more interesting than the world that we as normal humans create. What about staring at a TV for hours on end. If someone from 500 years ago saw us today staring at a box they might consider locking us up. Obsessive interests? Again, another judgment of normal that doesn&#8217;t hold true in the new consciousness.</li>
</ol>
<p>I read an interesting article on non-verbal communication relative to autism describing Amanada Baggs, a non-verbal autistic, who did a film on You Tube about her life called In My Language. She used voice-dictation technology to describe what was in her thoughts. She was extremely intelligent and articulated her inner feelings with great clarity. Some didn&#8217;t believe she was autistic. Part of the film showed her rocking back and forth humming a long note. She described it as &#8220;about being in constant conversation with every aspect of my environment.&#8221; Sure sounds like the understanding of the concept of unity with all things. Her video has been viewed over 300,000 times and gives us a view into her amazing non-verbal world of autism.<a href="http://nextnewage.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/autism__help_solve_the_puzzle_by_avohej.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-127" title="autism__help_solve_the_puzzle" src="http://nextnewage.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/autism__help_solve_the_puzzle_by_avohej-176x249.jpg" alt="" width="176" height="249" /></a></p>
<p>In my opinion, a lot of the new kids are being diagnosed as autistic just because they are wired differently. Labeling them as having disorders because they don&#8217;t behave the way we perceive as normal is one way to look at it. What the startling increase in the number of children we are labeling autistic gives me is more validation that the shift is happening now. If we look at these children as a glimpse into human behavior for the next age and not as a blight on society that needs fixing, the insights that they offer are amazing.</p>
<p>I dearly hope that medical science wakes up soon to seeing an alternative reason for these behaviors rather that continually diagnosing and treating as autism. I have said that the next age would bring a complete redesign of the human being. A complete shift in how we experience life. It is possible that the children who are now judged as existing in a different world may soon be recognized as the living bridges to help us cross into theirs.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[With the launch of the LHC, science is sounding like spirituality. They are looking for answers as to why two particles can communicate instantly even when they are miles apart. They are looking for the God particle that connects them. The LHC will recreate the big bang after which the physicists hope to find evidence of this particle and possibly hidden dimensions. Sure sounds like the woo-woo talk of next age spirituality.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>CERN’s LHC (Large Hadron Collider) was launched today (Sept 10/08) in a quest to look for God. Well they don’t exactly use those words to describe this monumental project, I do. This project began on paper over 20 years ago with construction starting in 1996. It was completed and launched successfully today. What does this have to do with new age spirituality you ask? This project is where science and spirituality will once again come back together as one.</p>
<p>CERN which is acronym for it’s French name of Conseil Europeen Pour Recherche Nuclear or European Organization For Nuclear Research. It began in 1954 consisting of physicists from 20 European countries but has since become a worldwide collaboration. It’s major focus of research is nuclear physics. One of many notable results of this collaboration has been the Internet which was designed by <a href="http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/About/Web-en.html"title="Tim Berners-Lee" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank">Tim Berners-Lee</a>, a CERN scientist, who created it out of the need for information sharing between scientists.<br />
<a href="http://nextnewage.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/large-hadron-collider.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-39" title="large-hadron-collider" src="http://nextnewage.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/large-hadron-collider-300x195.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="195" /></a><br />
In simplified terms <a href="http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/LHC/HowLHC-en.html"title="The Large Hadron Collider" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank">the LHC</a> is the a giant scientific experiment that is basically trying to recreate the conditions of the universe just after the big bang. They are sending these hadrons or particles in opposite directions to have them collide with each other. The resulting effect is where they hope to discover the answers to the origins and workings of the universe.</p>
<p>In the last 150 or so years the world has adopted science as the new trusted source for determining what’s real. Science works on the premise that if it can’t be seen and reproduced in a lab, than it’s not real. We have come to rely on science as the ultimate truth supplier. Science knows that there are unseen elements like magnetism, gravity and so called dark-energy where the effects can be measured, but not seen. They also know that most of the universe is made up of this unseen energy.</p>
<p>Science has known that there is some kind of invisible force field that holds everything together. It is called the “Higgs field” along with the “Higgs boson” named by Peter Higgs who formulated this explanation of the missing unseen item. It is also called <a href="http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/Science/Higgs-en.html"title="The God Particle" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank">the “God particle</a>.”</p>
<p>They are also looking for hidden dimensions to help explain concepts like the weakness of gravity and do particles enter these hidden dimensions only to reappear. Sounds woo-woo to me.</p>
<p>Spirituality is based on the belief in things that are unseen. Truths that are taken on faith alone. In other words, blindly. Unscientifically proven to be real.</p>
<p>One of new age spiritualitys basic concepts is that everything in the universe is connected by an invisible web. Another is that there is more to our reality than the 3D world that we can see. That there are more dimensions that are layered on top. Dimensions, where there are forces at work that determine our experience in the physical world. That we can connect and interact with these unseen dimensions to alter the events of our lives. Sounds woo-woo huh? Have you read anything about the LHC or what’s happening in quantum physics lately?</p>
<p>Physicists have been talking about this kind of stuff for some time but has mostly been theory. The LHC is the best chance they have had so far to be able to see these unseen connectors and <a href="http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/Science/Dimensions-en.html"title="The LHC looking for hidden dimensions" rel="nofollow"  target="_blank">hidden dimensions</a>. They have made some amazing “guesses” but have many gaps in the overall picture. A lot of physicists have been working their whole careers to have something like the LHC experiment that could either fill in those gaps or send them back to the drawing board.</p>
<p>I know that we are connected. I know that their are more dimensions than the ones we can see. Can I prove it? No. Do I need proof? No. I know that the glue that holds everything in the universe together is spirit or God or the universal energy called love. I know I can interact with the unseen dimensions to affect my physical world. My passion is that the world can see what I see. Know what I know. Feel what I feel. Will science give everyone the proof that we seem to need with this experiment?</p>
<p>Before there was science, there was only faith. We believed in the existence  of the unseen without the need for repeatable proof and many still do. If you really listen to science and compare it to new age concepts there is a striking similarity. They are saying the same things but using different words.</p>
<p>I am cheering for the scientists at CERN. I am hoping that they find the answers that they seek. It is time to <a href="http://nextnewage.com/reuniting-science-and-spirituality/"title="reuniting science and spirituality"  target="_blank">put science and spirituality on the same page</a>. It’s time for humanity to get on the same page. I am hoping this experiment will take the woo-woo of science and the woo-woo of new age spirituality and together it will form the  final piece that is needed for the awakening that I so passionately desire for all of us.</p>
<p>The first collision will be app. Oct 21/08. Some have predicted that it will be the end of the world. They say recreating the “Big Bang” will destroy the earth. Noticed I said “they.” We won’t hear of any analysis of the data until probably the spring of ‘09.</p>
<p><strong>Update Oct 3/08</strong>: The Collider had a problem with freezing up so it has been shut down for 2 months which will put back the time for the first collision.</p>
