In regards to your article “The Real Seven Sins”, we need more vocal people like you. The key word is vocal! There are many who have wholsome values, convictions and strength of charactor but their main weakness is not speaking up. They keep these values a secret. We all need to promote and defend the values you have described. I have come to realize that you, Rita Livingston and the staff members I have met are some of the people. You verbalize your values. Thank you for being who you are.

Based on my exposure to The Sedona Times and the people associated with it, I find that they are willing to discuss many social issues which most people tend to want to sweep under the rug, especially city, state and federal government leaders.

Guess what? The rug has been rendered usless due to a big lump. It’s time to clean these messes up, for they can no longer can go unnoticed.

One contributor to the lump under the rug is the litter in our community. The Sedona Times and it’s staff have been very generous in their coverage of our Road Warrior and CSI litter abatement program. Your organization has continued to follow our progress which now includes the virtual community of Folksville. Our community includes many citizens and businesses from Cottonwood, Camp Verde, Clarkdale, Jerome and Sedona who have come together to try to reduce the illegally dumped litter in our communities. We have pride!

As the Mayor of Folksville, Arizona (USA), our community wants to thank you and The Sedona Times for being vocal!

The only POWER the mind has over us is to keep us OUT of the present moment. This very moment is the only place that God/Goddess exists. If we can learn to be happy in this very moment or just plain be in this very moment, we then can understand there is no past or future. It is all illusion, including the 7 deadly sins, as the 7 deadly sins do not reside in the MOMENT hence creation of the illusion. Therefore, if we stay out of the illusion of the past and future, we then may understand that everything in this moment is in the Divine Plan and everything else are just experiences of the Divine Plan. No duality. No right/wrong, black/white, yes/no/ should I/shouldn’t I, etc. We can choose to become our Godself or we can choose to become a Victim. The 7 deadly sins is the Victim. This very moment is our Godself and if we are in the moment every moment, there are no sins because nothing else exists. Think of it like puppets in a play. God manuvers the strings Divinely and nothing is to be regreted. For it is only expereince in getting us where we are to be in the play of Divinity. Everthing has been given to us a gift to grow on OUR path. Not someone else’s path. Just our path Divinely Individually. No hurts, no pains, no fears, no regrets or any of the others mentioned……….. that is the illusion. It is time we move through the eye of the needle and see no more illusion as mentioned in this article as the entire artical is a beautiful display of what is the illusion. We are all perfect. Each and every one of us in all that we do. It is our mind that is sick and un-Godly that tells us differently and creates that illusion.

Thank you for writing this aritical so that we can touch so many hearts that may be in that place of illusion. We create Sin in our mind as there is no Sin in the heart center of Christ Consiousness. Sin is unable to create and manifest itself if we are in that heart center and the moment at all times. Sin can’t exist in that place. Just unconditional love is able to exist in that place so lets take up our crosses and go to that place that is real inside our hearts. Jesus said “The way to the father is THROUGH ME”………what else would that mean other than the word ‘through me’ means move through the heart center of Christ Consiousness of uncondtional LOVE as nothing else exists…….. Namaste’
