You Can Run, But You Can NOT Escape KARMA

 Theagenes of Thasos
God-Healer

Greetings from Tucson,

This a story that recounts an amazing rise of a Greek God, yet he could not be
considered a God until he completed his Karma.    Theagenes was said to be the
son of Herakles (Hercules).  At age 9, Theagenes walking through the town
is said to have ripped a bronze statue of one of the gods of Agora  off its base and carried it
home.  Instead of the penalty of death, one of the town's elders decided that Theagenes
for punishment, he was to carry and put the statue back.  This causing the boys fame to
spread throughout Greece. (The Karma begins.)

Theagenes grew up to be an Olympic champion in boxing and pankration (boxing and wrestling
with no rules) and gained great fame for himself and his homeland Thasos.   After his death
a statue of Theagenes was erected in his honor.

It seemed that a former opponent of Theagenes who never won against him, came to the
statue every night and beat it.  With the theory that Theagenes would feel this on the
other side.  One night durning the customary beating of the statue it came loose, and fell
on the man and killed him.   Apparently, that theory was correct and indeed Theagenes

did feel and sense the nightly beating and finally had enough of it. So, he  had his statue fall    

on the former opponent thus freeing himself from that ritual.

(The Karma returns)

This act was considered murder by the greeks, not an accident.   The man's children wanted

the statue prosecuted for the murder. Apparently, the trial did not go well for Theagenes.

According to Greek law at the time, written by Draco.

The punishment was exile, the Thasians removed the statue and dropped in the ocean.

Shortly after the Theagenes statue exile, a severe drought broke out on the island of Thasos.

No crops were growing.  The Thasians sent an envoy to the great Oracle of Delphi.

Who told the Thasians "To welcome back all exiles." Which the Thasians did.

But, still no relief from the drought and famine. The rulers again sent an envoy to

the Oracle, it is then that Pythia reminded them that the Theagenes  statue lay at

the bottom of the sea. They needed to retrieve it back.

Amazingly, while they were trying to figure out how to do exactly that.

Some fisherman apparently caught the statue in their net and brought it ashore.

They set the statue back in its former place, the drought and famine was released

and Theagenes became known as the Healing-God.  Given the sacrifices and offerings

of a god.

This account was given to us from Pausanias (AD 110-AD 180)

A Greek traveler and geographer. He is famous for his description 

of Ancient Greece. Known for his first hand observations, known for

his unquestionable honesty.

It has been an honor for myself to research these great persons
of antiquity. Just, by reading about them, and getting a sense
of their lives, enriches my life here on this earth.

It is my hope, that you may have a similar experience!

Casting Call: Stage Actors Planet Earth "The Experience"

Day Light Productions

Open Casting Call for  StageActors-  Planet Earth "The Experience"

Drama, Action, Romance, Comedy and many more. 

Send your holographic resume, include any recommendations

from past and present teachers.   

Include saying this line. (Be Creative)

"  I  will play the  (blank, blank, blank ) in the Planet Earth Experience."

The Earth play is like Summer Stock Theatre.  Many are discovered here on Planet Earth.

All will be considered, few will be chosen.  Many will be given a number for

the waiting list.

Do you remember responding to this call? 

"What!" You say," Your not an actor."

I remind you, that you are..      OH, Yes, you are!!

Well, if you reading this you certainly are in this production.. And that is "No Cosmic Joke!" 

Lets go back to how you located here to Earth:

In order to get here, you had to sign up.. From the Cosmic standpoint this is the Ultimate

play. You wanted to be the next Marlon Brando, James Dean or Marilyn Monroe of the Cosmos. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marlon_Brando

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Dean

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marilyn_Monroe

Becoming that allows you to write your ticket to any other play in the Universe. 

You sent in your resume to the producers of this cosmic play. You auditioned for one of the roles.

You waited for what seemed like a lifetime, and you finally get a call back.

They say," There is a part available," but is not the one your auditioned for.  Now, they say,

"It is an opportunity to improve your craft." Eventually, when your particular role opens, you will 

be considered for that part..   

Your friends say this is a great opportunity, they ask you to meditate on it,  seek within

yourself, whether you should take it.  You, decide "Yes, I will take it."

Now, lets go over the contract that you signed..

Your contract will last one earth lifetime. There are penalties called Karma, for not  following that

contract. Which may result, in taking more roles, and different lifetimes.

Be aware: It takes on average about 256 lifetimes to perfect your craft.

There are those exceptions the Super Stars, who are have completed their role in perfection,

and have moved on to the next play in the Universe..   They have set the standards that 

we need to achieve in order to play our roles to perfection..   They have been awarded the Cosmo.

(The Hollywood equivalent of the Oscar)

There are just 2 rules you need to follow and remember:

As long as you follow these 2 rules, you be fine.  Forget them and you risk the possibility

of losing your identity to the character role. 

You are taking on this role, bringing this character to life. Breathing life force into it. 

This is your creation, sometimes, if you let it, it will takeover.

You stay in character too long and before you know it

you forget about the real you.. You identify with the character in this case the 

body or Embodiment that you inhabit in this lifetime.  You are responsible for 

any actions that are not of the highest integrity..  Karma

I once, heard a story of an actor named Mike Myers, while in filming, he actually

becomes that character and stays in character the whole time.

 Even when the camera

is not on..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Myers

THE RULES:

1. Daily downloads from your higher self (God Presence), at least 15 minutes daily

2. If you get stuck, call out "Help"

    You are not alone, your coaches are all around you, in Spirit.  Since this is an on going

    production, you must call out, "Break! " (Free Will)

There  is only 1 way, to get out  of the contract.. 

1. Complete it, and receive the agreed upon compensation.

 Break it, and be subject any penalties according to the contract.

Giving up, and conforming to mass conscious, you risk become attached to the wheel of Karma. 

Penalties:

After that lifetime,  you go to the Spirit world. The producers will come to you and review your  contract. They will give you, your options:  who and what you need to play, and how many       lifetimes it will take to land that role you originally signed for..

So you go to classes and take directions from coaches and try again.  

Placing yourself in different

parts and places in order to finally land that role that you always wanted..

Eventually, we perfect our craft!  Get it Right!  Get the Cosmo!

And move on the next play in the Universe.

Without wonder and insight acting is just a business. With it, it becomes a creation.
