Day 31 Death Fast report - Taking Calories is taking away 1/3 of every day

Day 31 Death Fast report - Taking Calories is taking away 1/3 of every day

Sleep, sleep.... sleep.  Argh.  I've been sure of this for some time, it is far easier, far less effort for the body to feed off of itself than to feed off of external calories.

20 essays left to proof read, then about 5 more essays to shoot, transcirbe, proof.  Then the fairly arduous task of pulling it all together and getting the Personal Trainer right in layout, content and technology. 

I'm going as fast as I can.  Gaia is not changing her time frames, she's not slowing on my account.

Yesterday I skyped for 45 minutes with a middle school in Wisconsin, a teacher that years ago met me, was impressed by my journey and work, at the 32 year White House Vigil Thomas started.  Gutsy guy, says the class was deeply, deeply impacted.  John has set up an hour skype interview with an off-main-stream news outlet tonight.

Hope has come from California to work on the books, any replanning of the Death Fast, media, interviews, video....

Day 33 Death Fast Roll Back - Update

In book two, unlike with one, I'm doing a full read thru edit to make it easier on you.  That should be finished today. Barring any unforeseen roadblocks I expect to pull together the Personal Trainer part, and forward, etc, by Wed or Thursday, and send the draft to you, praying for a fast but deep read and comments, suggestions.

Then, I expect to take Brian's edits of book 1, the only ones I received, and do the final edit that book 1 will receive, and send that to you.

If I get lucky tech wise, I think I see how to make both books into audio books, a format that some groups only use.

Also, so all during this week, the above, I also, having received some authoritative input on my assumptions regarding the timeframes of Environmental Armageddon, I am hoping to secure some pointers to further articles from my source that can help me understand the view that I was offered as to what more accurately the risk curves look like.  As of now, my views have not changed, but I'm open to the new input if I can get it.

REMINDER, as I conclude the above later this week I expect, the Death Fast will resume. I'll take calories till then, but cease, and resume the Death Fast.  -
YOUR HELP IS NEEDED.  When the above is concluded, per recent posts on the  SL Blg blog,
I am considering how to move forward.  Please review those last 6 or so posts.  I NEED YOU IN THE REPLANNING, I NEED YOUR INPUT, however for it to be qualified, input, and I can't accept anything other than that, 1st of all from myself, it will be required that anyone wishing to contribute to the replanning:
A. Have deeply read and grasped all the content of Book 1.
B. Have deeply grasped and seriously attempted to use, the Personal Trainer, Book 2

I won't have a lot of time.  Tho I am rolling back the day count 1 to 2 days per day that I'm taking calories, that is aggressive, so when I restart, I physically and mentally won't have a whole lot of time for replanning, so I pray that you are ready for book 2, are NOW spending the time to grasp book 1, and will ready to contribute late this week.

'Loving, this Death Fast mission is the cornerstone of the Great Turning; Jesus work.' Occupy Brother

'Loving, this Death Fast mission is the cornerstone of the Great Turning; Jesus work.'  Occupy Brother to me yesterday, Saturday.  Paraphrase.  And if I misquote I apologize.

Since I've been in DC these 8 years or so it has been one day more shocking and horrifying than the prior day as to how hopeless what calls itself activism, religion, humanity., US democracy... is.  Totally unexpected.  Totally horrifying. Totally consistent... with some recent exceptions, slivers of hope in DC (and HOPE in California).  Over the last 9 months there have been two, and recently a trickle more folks, after a drought of 8 years, that give me some hope, in DC Occupy, McPherson.  One of the two, visited me briefly yesterday, Saturday, bringing me some Ensure, and electrolytes, and Love, and now clear respect for my need to remain in 'Isolation' to complete my part of the work.

But we spoke briefly, and I paraphrase - 'Loving, this Death Fast mission is the cornerstone of the Great Turning; Jesus work.' If I miss-quote the idea, I apologize. 

This too is my view.  I cry, I weep at the thought of it, the awe, the worry, the overwhelming emotion.  This Death Fast, what it represents, the strategy it is part of (read the 4 Waves of Death Fast before we are done, here, PAGE 28, hurry).  

Why is this it?  Because it is, and if you read this essay, and the book more broadly, you'll see it.

But the reason for this note, this morning - the Personal Trainer in final stages of compilation now, as I review it, AS I SUBMIT TO IT, USE IT, AS I AM NOW, JESUS IS CHEERING.  GANDHI IS CHEERING.  MLK JR IS CHEERING.

One of my great horrors, heartbreaks, despairs is: "Jesus death took away our sins."  Oh my God, the horror, the deadliness of these perverted notions is, well, Genocide, extinction of the species if we don't finally get past them.  Jesus DEATH DIDN'T TAKE AWAY OUR SINS, OUR 'ERRORS.' HIS DEATH BLAZED THE WAY FOR US TO DO S0 - HE SHOWED US, REMINDED US WHY WE ARE HERE - TO SERVE, TO MARCH TO THE DANGER, TO THE NEED, TO THE EMERGENCY, NOT FLEE IT.  THIS IS OUR CROSS, OUR BANQUET!!!, OUR FEAST!!!! (NO, I REALLY MEAN IT, OUR JOY, WHY WE ARE HERE) OUR REASON FOR BEING!!!!!  WHAT COULD BE MORE WONDERFUL? 

We have 200 billion live in our hands, right now, this second, this year, and then their fate is sealed.  There is no way we can wash our hands of this.

"If you Love me, you will do greater works than these, because I go on to the Creator (and you have more time here to work, to learn, to stand on My shoulders, to build, to go beyond what I've shared with you).

This, now, today is the time of Armageddon.  What is unclear of Armageddon is, how it will play out:  

A.  Do we allow it to be the time of the last and final destruction, that we unleash on our children, grandchildren, greatgrandchildren... for the next 2000 generations, or, 

B.  Do we make it the TIME OF THE FINAL DESTRUCTION OF THE REIGN OF HEAD/FLESH OVER HEART, OF GREED OVER LOVING, OF ENMITY OVER SISTERHOOD/BROTHERHOOD/UNIVERSAL FAMILY; OF ALL OUT WAR OF CONSTRUCTION REPLACING THE UP TILL NOW ALL OUT WAR ON CREATION - RAPING AND PLUNDERING OUR MOTHER EARTH, GAIA, AND OUR NEEDIEST BROTHERS?

And, what outcome is your life dedicated to, (because it is)?  "We are all extremists.  Are you an an extremist of hate, or an extremist of Love?"  MLK Jr paraphrase.

Friends - Anyone wishing to input into Death Fast Replanning...

Good morning. 

An obvious oversight to last evening's note - Anyone wishing to input into any Death Fast replanning as introduced below, to be at all qualified, would need to have read for deep, deep understanding and grasp, not only the forthcoming book 2, "Resurrecting the Insanely Human Unviolent Warrior in You,"   but also the recently released book 1, "Global Warming's Death.  Fast. Till enough are seen dying for it, global warming won't stop,"  available here.

Subject: Friends, IMPORTANT - Planning from here forward of Death Fast

I'm holding on day 38, taking half ration calories so I can think again, and finish book 2, and maybe replan.

I expected zero interest, as that is what I've had on every campaign since the Darfur campaign 5 years ago.  Yet:

*  The world's leading activist, Diane Wilson, endorsed the book 1, "Global Warming's Death. Fast.", and by implication, applauded the Death Fast weapon.

*  There has been interest, from my friends and Family in Occupy DC since day 1, AND IT SEEMS TO BE MATURING, AS ACTIVISTS SHOW RAPID MATURING, BY THE DAY.

*  Hope and Brian have really invested themselves near full-time on getting up to speed on the details of the campaign, issues... approaching true partnership.  Two others are showing some inclinations to move in that direction as well.

*  There has been an international article, thanks Brian, LA Times, and also Chicago Trib, Vancouver, International Hispanic....

*  Hope penetrated Earth Policy Institute and they took an endorsing stand - Lester Brown's group, Plan B 3.0.

*  It appears that with fiery passion, clear vision, deep wisdom and humanity, someone is near joining the Death Fast, but with a question about optimal timing....


What does this mean for the current Death Fast?  I don't know yet.  I'd rather not decide in a vaccuum, but this is way to advanced for input from those that are not yet equipped, in my view.

Book 2, Resurrecting the Insanely Humane Unviolent Warrior in You - a Personal Trainer, is soon to be completed.  It is a much more challenging book to write, and to use, than the first, so it is going slower than I anticipated, but coming along well.  It so happens, that anyone that reads it in DETAIL, and uses the tool a few times deeply, would in my eyes, be qualified to provide useful input to me as to what Loving should do now to best serve humanity - A.  Resume the Death Fast when the book is written (the current 80% probability), or B.  Consider leveraging the points above and moving from this Death Fast, into recruiting mode for one to begin in about 6 months?  or C. ?

As soon as the book 2 is sent to you in a better edited draft from me than book 1, 2-4 days from now, I'll resume the Death Fast, currently holding at day 38.  But I'll be plenty lucid for another 3-6 days for review of incoming major issue/suggestion edits from EACH of you I pray, and for those who do so, and who indicate that they are seriously using the Trainer, I'll invite them to submit input/join in a discussion of how Loving, and the Death Fast, should go forward.

1000 on Death Fast. Is the fastest road to that: A, or B.

Till enough are seen dying for it Global Warming won't stop.  This is the answer.

The question, how to make that happen the fastest.

1000 on Death Fast. Is the fastest road to that:

A.  Loving's Death Now as a tool for others to use to fan the flames?

B.  Loving and others (???) recruiting, promoting, full time, beginning soon, traveling (???) for a larger restart, here in front of the Embassy, in, oh, say, January?

This is a question that has recently been raised to me.  It is somewhat rhetorical, but, if there were any deeply responsible thoughts that any of you had, I'd be open to hearing them.

I've just stepped back, 1st time, to look at Book 2 - Resurrecting Potent Activism

I've just stepped back, 1st time, to look at Book 2 - Resurrecting the Insanely Humane Warrior in you... a Personal Trainer.  (Title still in flux).

I was worried as I began to do so, too long?  Missed the point? 

Bulls-eye.  

I can only think of two person that are at all likely to use it every day, to be what the world needs them to be, but I think of another two who I know that just may, and over time, there may be others.  Everything now depends on moving from 1 in a million of us that are Insanely Humane Warriors, to 2 in a million, 3... and those wanna-bees that learn of this book will be accelerated at light speed by it. 

What others do is not my business, just what I do, and in finishing this Personal Trainer I will have provided what nowhere else exists, a Personal Trainer capable of condensing what took me decades to learn and become, onto weeks and months.

The slightly updated first pages attached.  The draft of the rest - I can't tell - tomorrow?  Monday?   Tuesday?  I can't tell how long it will take me to pull it all together.

Death Fast Day 39 - partial hold till book are done

Unless I consume moderate calories the books will not get done.

The books must get done. 

I'll be taking roughly half rations, about 800 calories per day until the books are done.  Weight loss will continue, but moderated, and my mind and strength should stay sharp and strong enough to finish.

Headed into Exhaustian, Very Fragile mode. Need your compliance.

Headed into Exhaustion, Very Fragile mode.  Need your compliance.

Dozens, and dozens, and dozens of times throughout my life I've executed missions successfully exactly like this one, just different.  It is territory I know like the back of my hand.

You may think that now I need lots of support, and that is true, but not what you think.  More than ever, with the exception of Brian, Hope, and one other who has committed in an important way to partner in the campaign, and will visit with me Sunday, I need SPACE, that you have acceded to in recent days.  

My energy, powers of focus, etc are waning, but that's par for the course.  IF you continue to comply with my wishes and allow the uninterrupted seclusion I need, I'll be able to do my part. 

I will not allow interference with the mission, especially now that I'm entering a very very depleted, fragile zone for me.

As Brian and Hope know, I am TOTALLY available to the press, serious interviews, potential Death Fasters - and entirely functional in that regard.  That's the point, what I have left WILL complete the books, and WILL meet the needs of the mission, and I'll not allow that to be interfered with.

BTW, I dragged all my stuff up hill just now to a power outlet so I can recharge and complete working on the book.  Expect to be back on site by 1 or 2 am Sat am.

BTW, Finnis newspaper, 800000 readers, came for a photo shoot, 30 min today.

ALSO, a Canadian woman stopped by, is doing my portrait, said the story is in the Vancouver Press.  Thanks Brian.

Loving you all

Day 38 Death Fast status report

Audio on 21 of the previously uploaded video logs was incapable of being electronically transcribed, and I just don't have the speed, and strength, if I ever did, to manually transcribe them all  So I re-shot all 21 this morning, argh, and they are uploading now, and the transcriptions are moving ahead. 

It seems that despite my best efforts, not  ;) winking, I haven't totally done my part yet of driving everyone away.  Thank goodness. Not totally anyway, yet.  John, of Occupy DC, the one of strong heart, unwillingness to turn away from decency no matter what, brought me electrolytes and some other equipment I'll need as the end draws near here.  A number of you have sent encouraging emails while affirming recognition, as John did, my need for total solitude to finish the books, granting me the freedom to not reply.  Thank you, friends and Family.

I'm very tired.  I'm very weak.  I'm very, very, very thankful for this mission.  This is why I was born.  I knew it, from my earliest memories, not the exact 'what,' but the nature and magnitude of it.  I knew I was here to try to help, all of humanity.  To many I've appeared crazy for decades.  I knew what I was called to race toward, hopefully, in time.  Ultimately, this was it, tho I've done a lot of other important, consequential, large magnitude good along the way.  But this Death Fast, these books, ultimately this is why I was put on Earth.  I've been preparing, and I am fully, Joyfully, ably, capably ready to do my final parts. Thank the Creator.  Inexpressible joy and gratitude to be doing my part.

But I can't do anyone else's. 

And humanity is irredeemably doomed if others don't join.  Now. Forever.
