Oh, Anne, I always love comments from you!! I woke up in such a dark mood from all that's going on, but your message made me feel a little hopeful. So glad you were able to listen to Jeff--yes, I thought he did an excellent job in that video, trying to save the children. And thanks so much for adding to the description of the video- I ho…

Also, I guess the reason I woke up in a dark mood, was that I listened to the video below with Max Igan--he goes over all of the history of what's going on and the crimes that have been committed against the Palestinian people:
Sandra, I totally know what you mean about waking up in a dark mood.
The problem is that we don’t always know how to pray, or how powerful our prayers can be. I think that is because we don’t understand that we are living transponders.
A transponder is something that both receives and transmits information. We “transpond” all the time – we receive information, and then we send out information – information in the form of words and ideas, but also emotions.
I’ve read that in order for a prayer to be powerful, I need to put my heart and mind into it – feelings and thoughts. If I put this together with the notion of being a transponder, something very interesting transpires.
When I write you a message on this comment forum, and you receive the message and write back to me, do you know how that happens, from a technological perspective? I certainly don’t! But that doesn’t stop either of us from using this medium, or from knowing that it will work. And that is what we experience – I send you a message, you send me a message… we don’t know *how* that happens, but we know it does.
With prayer, we don’t always get to “know” what the results or impacts our prayers might have. There is no “instant gratification” heart/like symbol to click. Nor do we necessarily understand how it all works. But that doesn’t mean that nothing happens when we pray – on the contrary, something very real indeed happens.
Because we usually don’t get to “know” what has happened after we say a prayer, we have to have *faith* that something has indeed taken place, that our message has gotten through. That’s why all the spiritual teachers from time immemorial have talked about the importance of having faith.
When I heard Jeff’s baby burbling and chortling away in the background while Jeff was discussing what is, let’s face it, a really horrific situation, I couldn’t help but laugh. The happy baby noises made me feel good. And so every time I think of the suffering of the Palestinian children, I remember the feeling Jeff’s baby gave me and I send that feeling on to the children of Palestine. That’s my way of praying for them.
I don’t “know” if it works. But I have *faith* that it does.
My husband has lined up Max Igan for us to listen to tonight. Thanks for the reminder!

And I thought this was a good, quick reminder of what the propaganda is all about:
