Simon responded to a question I asked by saying
“Yes I generaly agree that desire is first expirenced as a thought ,I would add that
desire can also be first expirenced as an image or a feeling.”

I answered Simon with the following: I have explored this deeply for years and I don’t think it is quite accurate that images and feelings can be experienced separately. I have identified a cycle of mind activity that I demonstrate to my audiences with a visualizing activity that would be difficult to duplicate here. In that activity my audience can experience the thought cycle in a conscious manner and then experience that our conscious control point in that natural mind cycle is choice of language.

Mental Images appear from three sources,
Memory – of what has been seen in nature or what has been seen that another person created by the use of language.
Inspiration (also memory but from an unconscious level of activity) – even though the origin of inspired images is unclear to the receiver, every example I’ve been able to experience or research has been a result or re-arrangement of what has been seen in nature or what has been already created by another via language
Direct creating of the image via language. Except for the images created by language the only other source of image is what already exists in nature and even that may have been created with language originally. In the Bible, John 1:1 it says, “In the beginning was the word. the word was with God and the word was God.” The only change in the latin Vugate translation is the last phrase which says, “God was the Word.”

Here’s the mind cycle I referred to above:
ALL language creates a mental image (more accurately, all sound creates a mental image, even the letters of words).
ALL images and even all fragments of images are felt in the mind and therefore will be felt physically also (what you are feeling is the vibration of the sound/image).
ALL feelings stimulate more language (conscious and unconscious).
You can REMEMBER an inner feeling you have felt before but you cannot CREATE an inner feeling without the inner sound (usually language) that vibrates in such a way that it produces a particular image and feeling. The importance of feelings are that they we are nearly always conscious of them even though the language/image may be UNconscious (often is). Therefore, feelings are a VERY important access to our unconscious creating.

If you bring a feeling into your conscious mind from a memory, you will not be able to hold that feeling in place for it to manifest in your physical experiene IF your everyday language is unconsciously creating images and feelings that are in conflict with the remembered feeling that you would like to keep. (That is usually the case at this time in our collective evolution or awakening).

The same thing happens if you bring a remembered Image into your mind. You will not be able to hold that image in place long enough to allow it to manifest in your physical experience IF you are unconsciously using everyday language that is creating counter-images that are in conflict with the remembered image that you would like to keep.

That is also true if you use language to create a new image as so many of us are doing with our kins domains. We are talking about what we would like in our effort to create the details of the image (and therefore the physical experience) of our kins domain. As we fill in those details and get a clearer image that can begin to manifest, we will only manifest the preferred image of the kins domain to the degree that the rest of our everyday language supports that preferred image.

If our everyday language is being driven by old UNconscious programming, and if that is creating mental images that are in conflict with our preferred image of kin domain life, our subconscious activity (God) MUST manifest the future that will include those (unwanted) feelings as well. We’ve all experienced a LOT of that, where we actually got what we created but it didn’t feel so good or work so well after we got it.

To continue the cycle, inner feeling generates more language. We talk about our feelings, we think about them, we try to understand them, make them go away, make them stay, improve them, etc. All of that is done with inner and outer language or even with just rudimentary sounds (like crying, laughing, moaning, etc.).

In that cycle of language-creates-image-which-is-then-felt, our only true control point in co-creating, is through language (silent or out-loud or both). Language forms the old and new programs which run through our mind and conversations over and over, unconsciously. Even though they are unconscious they are continutally creating images which may be conscious or unconscious, and therefore feelings which are generally conscious but can be blocked by numbness. Even though the programming runs unconsciously, we can bring it to our conscious awareness at any time and change or tweak the programming.

At the collective level, humans are just beginning to become aware of this level of previously unconscious mind activity. I call it the beginning level of God-Self awareness. We are learning that we have always been unconsciously working the God-control panel of our lives, and are beginning to practice with consciously working the God-control panel of our lives.

Simon continued his thought about desires being created by feelings and images by saying…and then it is defined and held with more thoughts,

My answer to Simon: YES, and I would add that it is defined and held with thoughts, further images or a focus of your energy. I already talked about images. At the mind level, energy can only be focused by thought (energy is subtle electrical fields and flow in the physical expression). Ultimately, thought can only be focused (organized) by language or sound. Language is simply complex organization of rudimentary sounds.

Simon wrote: You asked for my My thoughts on 1 timothy 6,10
the normal (king james,american) translation “for the love of money is the root of all kinds
of evils etc is not my favorit translation, I think that the latin Vugate translation is best.
it goes “For desire is the root of all evils. some persons, hungering in this way, have strayed from the faith and have entangled themselves in many sorrows.”

This is the second time that when looking into a bible passage that the latin Vugate translation, to me makes more sence (you can find it at www.sacredbible.org/studybible/index.htm) ,what do you think/feel about the different translations?

My answer: Thank you for introducing me to the latin Vugate translation of the Bible, Simon. I have not known of it before and I appreciate the link. I generally do not study the bible. I read it through several times as a child and a teenager but as an adult I rely mostly on my memory of that.

I would say that wrong (not aware of god/love/perfection ) desire is the root of all evil. I am not comfortable with the word wrong without clarification of its intent. The only thing that would make a choice “wrong” would be that it results in a manifestation of experience that is other than the one preferred. There can be no true “wrong” choices (determined by a moral judgment of right and wrong.)

Simon wrote: the ringing cedars on the three paragraphs starting “So much depends on”(page 246)
the way I would say it is-
how strong the feeling/desire is: is the disire in tune/alined with your overall goals?
are the goals of a nature that forces of light/ancestors/etc want to help with it?

My answer: This line contains a very big collection of information that must be addressed. Here, I would have to ask the kind of questions that Zorak (a forum friend) asks so well. Who are you? Who are these forces of light/ancestors/etc? Answer that truthfully and the entire discussion changes. Does being a “force of light” mean they are immune from any kind of error? (as you have asked in another application) (Does error even truly exist?) If light forces are immune to error, wouldn’t dark forces also be immune to error? If not, how did that occur? Who is the “authority” who can decide what is force of light and what is force of darkness? Where is grey in that scale? Does being an ancestor mean no errors are made and their understanding is impeccable and worthy of being an “authority” in accepting or rejecting your personal attempted creation? How do ancestors get the kind of authority and power to decide if your creation will be manifested? Who grants authority to whatever “beings” or “forces” are deciding if your image will be manifested? What if ancestors are aligned with the dark forces like Anastasia’s great grandfather who was one of the six priests? Your sentence, that is referred to here, has no true meaning until you have answered all of those questions and more.

Simon continued: all the above would play a part in how effective the thought is .
how would you put it?

I would say that Anastasia was explaining to Vladimir in language and structure that he could understand and accept. The real and whole truth is present in the next paragraphs when she said that it is still Man’s desire that is first and foremost! In several places throughout the books she has referred to thought as the fundamental element of creating. In Book three (new version) page 213 at the bottom of the page it says, “Thought is the chief instrument of the Great Creator.” If one understands the Great Creator to be separate from Man then the next sentences in the book are needed to communicate a degree of understanding. If one understands that the term child of God is a way to communicate the experience of God (single universal consciousness) becoming self-aware in the collective physical experience of mankind, the words chosen to communicate that process would be a bit different. Anastasia has said that she has chosen to communicate in the language of Vladimir and to bring him to understanding from his own starting point.

On the forum when I wrote about the experience of core Self (God-Self) I didn’t say one very important thing that applies a bit to this discussion. Common to nearly everyone, after returning to everyday life from an experience of Core-Self, is the awareness that the commonly accepted arrangement of language is no longer capable of fully and precisely communicating the Truth. One automatically begins using other arrangements of language made of the same words but arranged differently because of the awareness of another level of meaning that one is attempting to communicate. When Anastasia said she was communicating to Vladimir with his language I’m sure this is what she was referring to. The truth is contained in her words but sometimes it is additionally communicated in a form that is arranged to communicate to one with a current lack of awareness of that other level of meaning.

Throughout the books I have noticed how Anastasia has carefully, slightly and steadily rearranged the words she uses to gently (almost imperceptibly) move the reader’s understanding (and Vladimir’s) closer to the real truth that is beneath every thing we are experiencing and have experienced as humans on this planet. I have been amazed and thrilled with her ability to do that so effectively.

Simon commented: two other comments
FEELINGS, are (can be) much better (quicker) than thoughts in understanding things.

My answer: The above discussion of the cycle of mind activity touched on this. When you feel something, you are feeling the combined vibration of words from the images created by that particular arrangement of words (information). As you indicate in your next sentence there is a very big difference between “getting” the feeling and assembling the proper words in the proper order to be able to effectively communicate that feeling to another.

Simon: and if you know something fully you should be able to make it simple enough, so that a child (say around 7) could be able to understand you.

My response: Are you referring to a child of 7 like most of us are familiar with, or a child of 7 at the level of Anastasia’s children (and there is a child of 7 version for everything in between.) In the manner that our collective children are currently experiencing life and themselves I do not agree that reducing information to simple enough or clear enough terms should or will result in them being able to understand it. MUCH information is typically needed to restore the child to its pristine openness and capacity to learn from within (as is also needed for adults who have learned to see themselves as separate from nature/God).

A child (or adult) capable of fully understanding what I (and many others) teach MUST experience that information from within. It cannot come from outside even though we are compelled to continually try. I have seen my role for the past 14 years as dual 1) placing signs announcing the existence of another state of Self-Awareness that is worth finding (creating). 2) Clarifying my language presentation of that other level of Self-Awareness to make my own life align ever more fully with Truth.

For 14 years I have been astride of two worlds in my awareness. First I was aware that a small part of my awareness had passed over the line into that larger self-awareness. Gradually I have moved more and more of my everyday experience and creation into that awareness.

I adored Anastasia’s demonstration of living mostly in that larger self-awareness. She has given us all some better arrangements of language to use in creating a duplicable image of everyday life in that larger self-awareness. But more importantly, she has provided within that image, the method to restore anyone to that full inner connection that will eliminate the need to teach others about the truth of Self and the Universe, including children. That method is, of course, creating and then living in a space of love where all the subtle electrical energies of that space are aligned with Love.

I have created an index of the first two books in the Ringing Cedars book Series, Anastasia, and The Ringing Cedars of Russia. The index for the third book, The Space of Love, is in progress. I had originally planned to publish this index on-line, so I contacted Ringing Cedars Press to request permission to use a digital image of their books on my index website. 

In a conversation with two of the owners of Ringing Cedars Press I discovered several issues that had to be resolved.  One was the name of the url I had chosen for publishing the index.  That was easy enough to resolve.  Another potential issue, however, that is particularly disturbing to me is that it may be possible for someone who has not read the Ringing Cedars Books to read my index and decide something like, “I have the gist of those books now, and so I don’t need to read them.” 

That possible result is intolerable to me.  A solution to that must be found before I make my index available to others.  While that solution is being created, I’d like to talk a bit about creating the series index and reading the books. 

Reading the books gave me an astounding amount of very valuable information which is what I’ve referenced in the index.  However, the primary result of reading the books is what they made me FEEL, SEE, and UNDERSTAND ABOUT MYSELF, LIFE and OTHERS.  None of that can be captured in an index.

The creating of this index has been an astounding gift to myself and I hope it is a valuable gift to the many other readers of the English translation of the book series. If you haven’t read the books and would like to learn more about the series go to www.ringingcedars.com

I’ve described these books to many people and many have read them based on my recommendation and report. However, without exception, those people have reported back to me that it is impossible to do justice to the series by “telling about it.” I agree with that, so instead of telling you about the book, let me tell you about my feelings and responses from reading the series.

In the beginning, I read the first book, Anastasia, only because a very dear friend insisted that I MUST. I bought only the first book so that I could evaluate for myself whether it held value for me or not. I’m pretty cautious about what I read and I don’t read a lot anymore. I certainly am not drawn to the latest and greatest “Must Reads.”

After finishing book one, I immediately went on line and ordered the entire series of nine books.  As soon as I completed the order I called my friend to borrow book two so I would not have to wait until the order arrived to continue reading. As I read through the series I experienced a most amazing collection of experiences.

I cried and laughed as new awakenings and images of myself and all of creation spontaneously occurred. I caught my breath in amazement and joy as those images filled in with details. I paced around my house and yard to give myself time to assimilate, and then greedily returned to reading, finishing all 9 books in eleven days.

By the time I was finished I was living in a very different place in my inner AND outer world than where I was when I began. My priorities had completely re-arranged. My daily activities had shifted to an entirely new and magnificent focus. My self image as human had been healed at levels I hadn’t even known had existed before.  My relationship to the plants and animals living on my lot had become magical and supportive beyond anything I’d ever imagined possible. 

The stories and information in the books gradually but powerfully took me from unconscious “numbness” to vibrantly “seeing” so much richness and unfolding joy. During the course of reading, my conscious awareness of the entire Universe had expanded to breathtaking levels. 

It has been over eight weeks since I read the series and this new experience of life and self has not diminished but has continued to expand and unfold.  The books didn’t just give me information, they flipped invisible switches in my mind that began a contuing rapid and exciting restoring of innate awareness and abilities.

Reading these books has reconnected me to mySelf, the earth, to nature, to life, to humanity and even to the cosmos in a way that I never even conceived was possible or even desirable. That experience is still expanding.  I am filled with gratitude for the information and experiences brought to me through this series of books.

I thank Vladimir Megre for writing and publishing these books in Russia and for enduring the confusion and struggle he went through in acheiving his own transformations.

I thank Anastasia for conceiving the dream that made the series possible and turned Vladimir into a writer.

I thank every person who contributed to the process leading to making the books available to me in English, and there are thousands of them.

I also thank Leonid Sharashkin and Ringing Cedars Press for publishing the books in English, and John Woodsworth for his very excellent and speedy translations.

I have heard that a few people who read the books don’t like them.  I guess I understand how that can happen because the information in this series is life altering if you accept it.  I think it may be life altering even if you don’t accept it, but in a more subtle and indirect way.  You may not like that if you are attached to your current views of life around you.  However, at present, an astounding 60% of those who read the first book, read the remaining 8 books.

If you have read or will read this Ringing Cedars Series, congratulations! If you haven’t, you owe it to yourself to read at least the first book of this series that I and millions of others claim is the most important book we’ve read in our entire lives!

Wishing us all the very best we can imagine and speak,
JoyceM

If you’ve read at least the first book of the Ringing Cedars Series, you may have noticed on page 89, last paragraph (newest edition) that Anastasia tells us to…

“…take it upon yourself to gather some cereal grain, thresh it, grind it into flour and then use the flour to bake bread.  This is extremely important.  Anyone consuming this bread even once or twice a year will build up a store of energy capable of awakening his inner spiritual powers – not only calming his soul but also exerting a beneficial influence on his physical condition.  This bread can be shared with relatives and close friends.  If shared with sincerity and love, it will have quite a beneficial influence on them as well.”

I don’t know how it is in Russia but in this country the majority of readers will unconsciously ignore this paragraph entirely because we generally have no knowledge base that would allow us to gather, thresh and grind grain, even if we do know how to make a loaf of bread. 

In fact the majority of Americans wouldn’t even be able to identify grains growing wild (or cultivated) or know when the grain is ready to be gathered.  I just made two loaves of bread using flour I harvested, threshed and ground.  It’s easier than you may think.  Here are the steps.

First of all, what is a cereal grain plant?  It’s an annual grass, mostly, and it looks like grass.  Corn is the most un-grasslike of the grains and is rarely ever found growing in the wild. 

However, wheat, rye, oats, sorghum or varieties of triticale are growing wild in most meadows and fields.  If you find an area that isn’t mowed, the seed heads appear from mid to late summer, depending on the grain.  It will look like tall wild grass and will likely have lots of other weeds growing around it. 

You don’t have to worry about harvesting from a wrong plant because the seeds from any annual wild grass that is tall and sends up a tall stalk with seed heads (3-5 feet tall) are edible and nutritious.  You’ll know it’s an annual grass because it will be drying up when the seed heads are ripe.

In wild grain plants, the seed (also called a fruit) is much smaller than in cultivated grains. They are ready to harvest when the tops are dry and the grass plant is also drying – usually late summer into early fall.  If you wait too long, the wind will harvest the grain before you get a chance to. 

You can collect the grain a couple ways.  You can cut the stalk down with the seed heads attached or you can carry a bag to collect the grain.  Bend the stalk so the seed head is inside the bag then grab hold of the stalk below the seed head and run your hand up to the top of the seed head.  If the seeds are ripe they will drop into the bag easily.

For about a cup of flour you’ll need to collect about  5 or 6 cups of seed heads.

If you decided to cut the stalks down, you’ll need to beat them onto a hard surface to separate the seeds from the stalk.  It will simplify the process if you beat the stalks onto a large sheet to collect the loosened seed heads. 

Whichever way you gather your grain you’ll end up with a pile of grain and chaff (no stems).  The chaff is the straw-like cover that surrounds the grain and it must be separated from the grain by threshing.

One way to thresh a small amount of grain is to put the pile of grain and chaff into something like an old (but sturdy) pillow case or tie up the sheet mentioned above (with the grain and chaff inside it.) 

Threshing is essentially beating the grain to cause the grain and chaff to separate.  You can do that by repeatedly walking or stomping on it (with hard soled shoes), swinging the bag of grain and repeatedly smashing it on a hard surface, or beating it with a wooden club or a leather strap until the grain and chaff separates. 

After threshing you’ll need to winnow the grain which removes the loose chaff from the pile of grain.  Get two large and wide containers.  I used one large bowl and a platter with a good amount of depth.  Don’t do this on a windy day or you’ll lose your grain. 

Go outdoors and slowly pour the grain/chaff from one container to the other.  Hold the pouring container high over the receiving container.  A gentle breeze will blow the chaff away but the seeds or grain will fall straight into the container. 

Pour back and forth (slowly) many times until their is no more chaff in the grain.  You may need to thresh it a little more to release more of the chaff.  I rubbed the grains together that still had chaff, in order to loosen it.  A small amount of chaff ground into your flour will not ruin your bread (it will add fiber).

When the chaff is cleaned out of the grain, you’re ready to grind it into flour.  I used a hand turned flour grinder but I’ve also used other equipment.  You can use a blender, a food processor or even a clean electric coffee grinder (for small amounts at a time).

When you have turned your grain into flour, you’re ready to make bread.  Any good cookbook has bread recipes or you can easily find one on the internet.  You can use only the grain you harvested or you can mix it with purchased flour (preferably organic).  If you think you might have rye or sorgum, you will definitely want to mix it with wheat flour.

I spent about 20-30 minutes gathering grain from a small area of my wild growing back lot.  I spent about 15 or 20 minutes threshing it, and about 20 – 25 minutes winnowing the grain.  If you use a blender or food processor to grind the grain it will only take you a couple minutes.

It’s a good Saturday or Sunday project for once or twice per year.  I could have easily harvested enough for another batch of bread later in the year.  If you do save flour for later, be sure to freeze it as it will go rancid quickly once it is ground.

Hopefully, this will help a lot of Americans make the very special bread mentioned in the Ringing Cedars book, Anastasia.

Blessings to you and yours,

JoyceM

If you are a Ringing Cedars Reader you may want to know about some new related sites.  I have set up three new sites that relate to the series, and support readers.

The first is www.KinDomains.com where you will find a place to post and read stories about creating Kin Domains in America.  This is not a site for updates about current progress of kin domains, but rather it is for the kinds of stories Anastasia tells in the Ringing Cedars books. 

These stories are precisely what has fueled the rapid growth of the kin domain movement in Russia.  Anastasia even tells us about the tremendous power of creating images in the public’s mind (through stories and songs) in her story of her forefather who traveled to Egypt and taught the high priests.

In www.kindomains.com we are accomplishing a similar goal for America as Anastasia and Vladimir accomplished for Russia – the creating of powerful and nurturing images of kin domain settlements all over the country supported by Love, communities, local and government officials, and providence.

Anastasia gave us one beautiful American Kin Domain Story in book 8.1 chapter 7.  This site is for us to continue writing more of our own stories, building the collective image of flourishing kin domains all across America.  Doing so will generate fuel for the rapid establishment and growth of kin domains in the U.S. and other English speaking countries.

Please consider writing YOUR Story or A Story about love creating a kin domain or kin domain settlement.  Tell us a story of how the pieces came together in harmony and support of Love so pure and beautiful that it called a kin domain into being because nothing could deny love its manifestation of the perfect and nurturing Space Of Love.  I look forward to reading your stories.

The next site I wish to introduce is www.Colorado. RingingCedarsOfRussia.org where you will find a different kind of support for kin domain settlements in America.  This site is recording the progress of a group in Colorado (of which I am one) that is creating kin domain settlements in that state and beyond. 

This third site was born out of the first story posted on www.kindomains.com , mentioned above.  It is my story, and as I finished telling it the first time I “heard” in my mind that I was not finished at all.  I had not captured nearly as much of the “power of the image” to fulfill my dream as was possible. 

I had told a complete story about the creating of MY domain for MY family and decendents, but hadn’t touched anyone else with the process.  I retold my story, inserting elements of sharing my process with others in Colorado and the U.S. 

Immediately afterward I drew together a group of others who shared my vision and we have begun living the story.  On the website you will find the notes of our meetings, our plans and goals, our issues and researches, our active members, etc. 

It is our goal to fully and publicly share the process of creating a kin domain settlement in America in such a way that we…

• attract members who want to create their domains in Colorado,
• attract ideas and solutions from people all over the country,
• stimulate similar groups and websites in other areas throughout the U.S. and English speaking countries,
• establish a networking format of groups that enables everyone to shortcut the process and leap easily over barrers of resistance, fear and confusion.

In short, it is our goal to dramatically increase the speed and ease of creating kin domain settlements all across the U.S. and other English speaking countries.  The network of kin domain groups that we envision will melt barriers, dissolve fears, unite disparate energies, and develop beneficial ideas at warp speed. 

The image of kin domains sprouting easily into beautiful and nurturing spaces of love is exciting and energizing.  We, in our growing Colorado group are enriched by every part of the process and every step toward kin domain settlements around our state.

We anticipate joyfully, the joining of others and other groups into our process and network.

Wishing us all the best blessings we can imagine and speak,

Welcome to my blog that I’ve titled, Words Are Magic.  Of course, words really are our magic wand and this blog is about that.  I am Joyce Morris and I am an expert on the silent role of Language in our lives.  This silent role is much bigger than the common role of just communicating with each other.  

The explanation of this larger role of Language is neither simple nor short.  I’ve found the best way to explain it is with a 45 minute audio tape of a presentation I have been giving for several years now.  The presentation is called “The Eight Words That WILL Change Your Life,” and you can listen to it for free.  Click the link and you’ll be taken to a sign up page.  It’s well worth the effort and you will get VERY few emails from me as a result of leaving me your email address. 

Or you could also just go to my website and browse around at www.LanguageOfAttraction.com

This blogsite will primarily cover two topics

• The amazing silent role of Language in our lives and how to consciously manage that role
• The Ringing Cedars of Russia Series of books which presents a concept of kin domains and much more.  I’ll be reporting on my activities around creating my kin domain plus much more related to the information in this series of books.

These two topics are very closely related and very close to my heart.  I am commmited to creating a kin domain in a kin domain settlement in Colorado.  That settlement doesn’t yet physically exist as of October 2008 but I have organized a group of people who are commited, as I am, to creating not one, but several kin domain settlements in Colorado and perhaps beyond.

The Ringing Cedars book series is based on the experiences and teachings of a woman recluse in Siberia, Russia.  She goes by just one name, Anastasia.  Her teachings have changed the lives of millions of people across the world, mine included. 

The books have only been available in English since 2005 and so our kin domain movement in America is in its infancy (but growing).  In Russia there are several thriving kin domain settlements.

If you are interested in reading the series (which  I STRONGLY recommend) or learning more about it, you can review and purchase the books at www.ringingcedars.com

Who might be interested in reading the Ringing Cedars Series (9 books)?  Anyone who

• believes Heaven On Earth is possible or just wishes it could be.
• is tired of feeling helpless against the commercial and strugglesome way of life we’ve created in America (and beyond).
• has been searching for answers to the really tough questions in life.
• wants viable answers to the serious pollution problems on the planet
• is looking for or has found a soul mate.
• has or wants children.
• wants to improve his/her health easily, naturally and dramatically!
• thinks they already understand the benefits of natural foods.
• wants to understand a better way life can and perhaps should be lived.
• wants to know what life will look like at the “next level.”

Over 60% of those who read the first book go on to read the rest of the series.  That’s a very big percentage and keep in mind that a huge number of the readers of book one are given the book as a gift rather than choosing it.  It is typical for someone who reads the series to purchase one or several of the books to give to loved ones. 

I was no exception.  I, who am quite jaded about new books, bought my copy to read then quickly bought three more copies of book one as gifts, and plan to purchase 3-6 more as holiday gifts.

If the books are for you, they are compelling beyond just about anything you’ve read prior.  Even their distribution is amazing.  They have never been distributed by publishers or marketing campaigns but exclusively by word of mouth beginning on a street corner in Russia in 1996.  they are now in several languages and millions of copies have bee sold.

That’s enough for my intro blog.  I’ll be back with another soon.

Wishing us all the greatest blessings we can imagine and speak,

JoyceM
