Is he like Ghandi
My son and I had a discussion last night and he stated that Obama is a lot like Ghandi in the sense of winning the world with no violence and intelligence. During Ghandi days he said that the mass of people were imprisoned for being who they were but eventually had to be released because the economy tanked because there were no laborers to keep society moving. Won't that eventually happen here, when people are unable to get to work because of the cost of gas, won't eventually this nation crash from lack of laborers? Stupid thought I know but was just wonderering what you all thought.

1. If you abstract enough reality away, any two things are exactly alike.

A rather Ghandi like post there my friend ;)
For what is difference between two people but that which we choose to array ourselves with. Let us not focus on the differences we appear to have to one another, but instead on what is the same within all of us. Werd :P

--------------

No I don't think that labor will shut down in the US. More than a few people will be driven to horrible poverty, but everyone isn't going to stop working.

3. I think he's like Barack Obama . . .
isn't that enough for the moment, since that's who he's asking the nation to vote for?

5. I see Obama more like a Gandhi 2.0, a more highly evolved Gandhi.

His sharing of the Inverse Wave is natural, he shows that we live our lives within the illusion of a linear time line of a past, present and future.

He knows that who we are in each moment is determined by the vibrational wave pattern that we place in front of us in the linear time frame. We live in the illusion of a linear time with a Past, Present and Future. Who we are is determined by who we think we are going to be. That thought is a vibrational wave pattern waiting for us to walk into it as we step into our future.

He can identify the wave pattern that is creating our reality and expose it to the exact opposite wave pattern to neutralize it. Once he removes the outside negative influences, then we will become who we really believe that we can be.

These are the waves produced from Energy Stamps and Energy Matrices, his ability to tap into this Energy Well is unmatched in modern history.



edited to fix spelling.

7. "is a lot like Ghandi in the sense of winning the world with no violence and intelligence"
1) since when did Gandhi want to win the world?

2) Gandhi believed in nonviolent resistance (not the same thing as no violence and intelligence)

3) since when did Obama want to win the world?

OMG
