Heaven's here on Earth

10 Ben/Aj/Reed - The manifestation of heaven on Earth is in our hearts.  It is in the love that we have for one another, the way we would defend one another and support one another in causes.  It's the respect of what is of Earth.  It is the departure from the apartheid systems that were man made.

The Hopi, direct descendents of the Maya prophesied about the two roads that humanity would choose from.  One leads us back to heaven here on Earth and the other is the path that leads to destruction. This path is based upon technological controls.  Governments use surveillance, statistics and algorithms to keep people invested in it.

I have cried a river today.  It's time for heaven to really take hold in our hearts and the apartheid nature of politics to leave our minds.  Let the heaven that is in your heart nourish your mind with new thought forms of freedom, healing, joy and peace and so it is.

With love, Poppy

Heaven's Here on Earth

You can look to the stars in search of the answers
Look for God and life on distant planets
Have your faith in the ever after
While each of us holds inside the map to the labyrinth
And heaven's here on earth
We are the spirit the collective conscience
We create the pain and the suffering and the beauty in this world 
Heaven's here on earth
In our faith in humankind
In our respect for what is earthly
In our unfaltering belief in peace and love and understanding
I've seen and met angels wearing the disguise
Of ordinary people leading ordinary lives
Filled with love, compassion, forgiveness and sacrifice 
Heaven's in our hearts
In our faith in humankind
In our respect for what is earthly
In our unfaltering belief in peace and love and understanding
Look around
Believe in what you see
The kingdom is at hand
The promised land is at your feet
We can and will become what we aspire to be 
If Heaven's here on earth
If we have faith in humankind
And respect for what is earthly
And an unfaltering belief that truth is divinity
And heaven's here on earth
I've seen spirits
I've met angels
I've touched creations beautiful and wondrous
I've been places where I question all I think I know
But I believe, I believe, I believe this could be heaven
We are born inside the gates with the power to create life
And to take it away
The world is our temple
The world is our church
Heaven's here on earth
If we have faith in humankind 
And respect for what is earthly
And an unfaltering belief
In peace and love and understanding
This could be heaven here on earth
Heaven's in our heart
