Communique editors have received two posts that hold some interesting information on the interaction of water and light in the cosmos:

“Molecule vital for creating water exists in dying sun-like stars”

“Using ESA’s Herschel space observatory, astronomers have discovered that a molecule vital for creating water exists in the burning embers of dying Sun-like stars.”

 “Solar photons drive water off the moon”

“New research indicates that ultraviolet photons emitted by the sun likely cause water molecules on the lunar surface to either quickly desorb or break apart. The fragments of water may remain on the lunar surface, but the presence of useful amounts of water on the sunward side is not likely.”

“The time when one’s immediate natural impulse on the first sunny spring day was to get outside and enjoy it is long gone. Only the very courageous or “careless” who defy the grim warnings from medical mandarins and cancer specialists, wholeheartedly endorsed by the sunscreen industry, dare to venture forth into the ‘dangerous’ sun. Unless they are covered head to toe with sun protection factor (SPF) 60, they gamble with their lives, or so they are made to believe, by those who serve their own vested interests. Fortunately, this view is beginning to crumble in the blatant absence of scientific proof that sunlight causes disease. What is being discovered instead is that lack of sun exposure is one of the greatest risk factors for disease.”

The article goes on to summarize the discoveries and efforts made by European doctors to employ ultraviolet radiation to cure some of the most dangerous diseases until pharmaceuticals came into the medical picture after World War II.

US director Joseph Sikorski’s Tower To The People, a new documentary about Nikola Tesla, had its European premiere on April 6, 2015 at the Sava Centar in Belgrade.

The documentary is about Tesla’s dream of sending free wireless energy from a mysterious tower at the Wardencliff laboratory on Long Island. The film premiered in October 2014 at the New Yorker Hotel, where Tesla held his annual birthday press conferences for many years and where he died in 1943.

The film features materials obtained from the Nikola Tesla Museum in Belgrade and the Wardencliff Project, including previously unseen photographs, and music written by Emmy-nominated composer Marina Arsenijevic.

A press conference on March 31st was attended by Tesla’s nephew William Terbo, the sole living relative of the great scientist.

The screening of the film was organized by Toronto-based Tesla Magazine with assistance from the Belgrade city Secretariat for Culture and the Nikola Tesla Museum, and the event was held under the auspices of Serbian President Tomislav Nikolic.

< Watch the 24-minute segment of “Serbian Toronto Television—Episode 16″ on the film and its making. After a one-minute introduction in the Serbian language, the remainder of the program is in English. Included is a 5-minute film trailer, two long interviews with film maker Joseph Sikorski, and commentaries by numerous advocates of Tesla’s work. >

Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) was enshrined in 1993 by the Advocates for Religious Rights and Freedoms (www.arrf.org).

Annually for many years, the Advocates for Religious Rights and Freedoms held a Human Spiritual Rights Celebration on October 12, the Day of the Races of Man. The program of these celebrations contained awards presentations, musical presentations and speeches by Advocates and invited speakers, and enshrinements of individuals noted for their support of Human Spiritual Rights.

Tesla and many other pioneer leaders and thinkers inspired by a higher calling endeavored in their lives to bring to the world a greater appreciation and understanding of the mystery that is the human spirit. In honoring them, the Advocates not only remembered their acts, thoughts, and works but also paid tribute to their legacy, which is the quest for spiritual freedom.

The Advocates for Religious Rights and Freedoms is a consociation of churches and ministers of the International Community of Christ, Church of the Second Advent, that seeks to preserve , protect, and defend freedom of religion and to protect the right of individuals to religious expression.

“Our Sun experiences regular eruptions of material into space, but solar physicists still have difficulty in explaining why these dramatic events take place. Now scientists think they have the answer: clouds of ionized gas (plasma) constrained by magnetic fields and known as ‘plasmoids’ that struggle to break free of the Sun’s magnetic field.”

Swarm satellite (ESA) measurements made the last 6 months show a dramatic decline over North and South America with a strengthening of the Earth’s magnetic field over the southern Indian Ocean. Magnetic north continues to move towards Siberia where a large magma rise under the crust has been occurring for the past several decades. The new ESA SWARM data could indicate the Earth’s magnetic poles are in the process of flipping. PHOTO: June 2014 image by ESA’s Swarm Satellite.

“December 18, 2014 Berkeley, California – 786,000 years ago, iron atoms in Earth’s liquid outer core began switching their orientation in opposition to the existing Earth magnetic field. What causes iron atoms to act like tiny magnets that revolt against the planetary magnetic field is not understood. But when it happens in increasing numbers, patches of reverse-aligned iron atoms keep growing until they dominate the rest of the Earth’s liquid outer core — and the planet’s magnetic field flips. That means what was the north magnetic pole becomes the south magnetic pole and what was the south becomes the north. According to ancient sedimentary rock, volcanic ash and sea floor core research, there have been 184 polarity changes in the last 83 million years. Recent ground research indicates that in the century before the last pole flip, the Earth’s magnetic field weakened and strengthened and weakened and strengthened several times before locking into the current north and south magnetic poles.”

“A 1,500-year-old book that contains a previously unknown gospel has been deciphered. The ancient manuscript may have been used to provide guidance or encouragement to people seeking help for their problems, according to a researcher who has studied the text.

“Written in Coptic, an Egyptian language, the opening reads (in translation):

‘The Gospel of the lots of Mary, the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ, she to whom Gabriel the Archangel brought the good news. He who will go forward with his whole heart will obtain what he seeks. Only do not be of two minds.’

“Anne Marie Luijendijk, a professor of religion at Princeton University, discovered that this newfound gospel is like no other. ‘When I began deciphering the manuscript and encountered the word ‘gospel’ in the opening line, I expected to read a narrative about the life and death of Jesus as the canonical gospels present, or a collection of sayings similar to the Gospel of Thomas (a non-canonical text),’ she wrote in her book Forbidden Oracles? The Gospel of the Lots of Mary (Mohr Siebeck, 2014).

“What she found instead was a series of 37 oracles, written vaguely, and with only a few that mention Jesus.”

“What is a human being? It is the ultimate question, to which institutional science offers surprising answers. The materialistic paradigm, which has dominated institutional science for well over a century, states that the essence of consciousness can be reduced to the physical components of the brain.”

However, an alternative scientific perspective does exist.

One of the most remarkable researchers into human consciousness and the evolution of life is biologist Dr. Rupert Sheldrake. Dr. Sheldrake is the author of more than 80 scientific papers and ten books. He has won international acclaim for his experimental research on his hypothesis of morphic fields and morphic resonance.

The article below indicates that looking at the sun as a primarily healthy physical process seems to be gaining popularity. Here’s how the article begins:

“Sun Gazing has been followed by numerous people since ages and is prominent practice even today. However, the dispute (between sun gazing practitioners and many who have practiced and seen the damage caused by it) regarding whether the action causes damage to the eyes or not are loudly prevalent.

Several sun gazing testimonials from people are available online who say it is beneficial if done properly, and there are studies that support its benefit as well. However, on the contrary, the western scientific community doesn’t support the validity of sun gazing.”

Could the sun be good for the heart?

Our bodies get Vitamin D from the sun, but as dermatologist Richard Weller suggests, sunlight may confer another surprising benefit too. New research by his team shows that nitric oxide, a chemical transmitter stored in huge reserves in the skin, can be released by UV light, to great benefit for blood pressure and the cardiovascular system.

Dermatologist Richard Weller devised several inventive clinical studies which strongly suggest that sunlight may trigger compounds very similar to tri-nitrate, a chemical used to increase blood flow in patients during pectoris angina, or heart attack, episodes. He also has done research correlating latitude and sunlight availability as one of the predictors for population heart disease risk.
