Don’t vote for the “lesser evil,” vote for the “greater good.” – Dr. Jill Stein Welcome to our Autumn 2016 Issue: Transitions, Cycles, Death and Healing. Change is good! Having never before officially endorsed a political candidate, and in the spirit of “change,” this Presidential Election is the time for us to break with “tradition” and practice the spiritual activism we have long promoted. Talking Our Walk, we wholeheartedly endorse the Green Party Candidate, Jill Stein for President. I know that right now some of you want to holler in protest “a ‘spiritual’ publication has no business getting involved in politics.” Well, to that I reply: intention, meditation, affirmations and positive thinking are all wonderful (I know, I practice them). But, there are times (like now) that bringing about positive changes in this physical world—where we all live—requires practicing (doing) a little “spiritual activism” — whereby we bring our thoughts and words into alignment with our deeds. Please take a look at Jill’s Platform on page 25 and don’t hesitate to let me know what you might object to. Your thoughtful comments are always welcomed in my inbox. Another ringing objection I hear every 4 years is that by voting for a Third Party Candidate you are “wasting your vote.” “An outsider can never win.” Well, Bernie seemed to do ok, and quite possibly would have won, if not for Hillary’s buddies stacking the deck against him. How can any real change ever come about if we never challenge the “two sides of the same coin” two party system? And remember: the polls are not the only place we vote. We “vote” basically every day, every time we open our wallets — with every purchase of food, clothing, transportation, information and entertainment. Whatever we spend the most on, “wins.” Is it really a “waste” to vote with your conscience? Regardless whether you choose column A, B or C, I do hope you vote your values, vote your truth, and vote your heart — to achieve the grandest vision for our entire planet. Om Shanti (Peace) and Namaste, ... And Our Readers Talk Back Dear Neil, It is obvious the writer of this article “Shower Less for Better Health” (Aug-Sept 2016 Issue) has not had much human, animal or outside contact with other entities and the pathogens out there to believe we need not wash the contaminants of the world off on a regular basis. He probably has never had a ride on the NYC subway lines! True, shampoos, soaps and commercial products can contain harmful ingredients but I find this article a bit over the top. Depending on what a person also eats, drink and thinks also determines their body odor and what they might smell like. I would not date him for sure! Best, love the magazine, Dear Editor, I have been reading your magazine for many years. I read a lot of literature that is in the spiritual/selfhelp genre. What I love about Creations is the clarity the articles are written with. I am a teacher, so I appreciate how educational they are. They are also very concise, which makes it easy for me to read one article each morning. I wake up very early, at about 5 a.m. I have your magazine in my hands before 6 a.m. I like to plant the positive messages it carries, before the news contaminates my thinking. Each month, I re-read your magazine about 3 times, so that the information in the articles really sinks in and I can remember it easily. I usually take 5 magazines from the kiosk, so that I can share them with my like-minded friends. I have also advertised in your magazine … I can’t say enough good things about Creations. Keep doing what you are doing. You have the perfect formula for a fantastic magazine! Sincerely,
