Dr. Gileadi: There comes a time in life when you have to take stock and ask yourself whether you are, in fact, doing what you came to do in this world. We read scriptures that speak of heroes and heroines who valiantly served God and accomplished miracles that saved much of humanity. Maybe they didn’t do so at first, but when they awoke to a sense of who they were, they set about serving God to their utmost without the need to look back. We too seldom come to an awakening of who we are all at once because we often don’t see ourselves as anyone special, and because heaven withholds its gifts from us until we finally conform our lives to God’s will. But because we have implanted in us his divine gene, we are no less capable of being recreated into something like a god—magnificent and powerful—able to transform the world as did those illustrious forebears. Thus it is with the endtime kings and queens of the Gentiles whom Isaiah predicts are to restore the house of Israel:
"I will lift up my hand to the Gentiles, raise my ensign to the peoples, and they will bring your sons in their bosoms and carry your daughters on their shoulders. Kings will be your foster fathers and queens your nursing mothers" (Isaiah 49:22–23). It is as if this passage from Isaiah acts as a lifeline Book of Mormon prophets hold on to, knowing that God made provision from the beginning for those endtime Gentile kings and queens to save their descendants from their lost and fallen and scattered state. For that reason, Book of Mormon prophets refer back to this passage again and again, as if to inspire those same kings and queens of the Gentiles who read the Book of Mormon to wake up and perform their saving role to the house of Israel. That role, however, has little to do with non-Israelites but everything to do with Israel’s birthright tribe of Ephraim whose ancestors assimilated into the Gentiles and became "identified with the Gentiles" (Doctrine & Covenants 109:60).
David Cassani: The website describes the role of mothers introducing in their homes - a new language of emotional spiritual honestly - or communication with our bodies soul. This simple language becomes a tool for mapping our souls journey of learning -and relates to seven centers of life within them. As we see life as a mirror and understand how emotional triggers are issues within each of us, we can begin to move from buried unhealthy stress, to new ways to earn and find inner peace.
From a number of principles related to these simple living center, we develop a way to teach correct principles and let others learn to govern themseves. We call this agency based education, in contrast to efforts to control man with religious or efforts to aply social pressure or fears as in public social .
The first page of the website reviews the 17 points on the hand "curriculum" for this. The "Queen" types, which may be a Mr. Mom type as myself, (a father in the role of feeding the family) then work to help "King" types to heal and become all they can become - discovering their own inner pasions in this life. By creating Simple Living Centers in our homes, neighborhoods and communities we can help reduce the burden on government and empower people to govern or manage their own health care to a much higher level.

From newsletter of Dr. Avraham Gileadi - David Cassani's comments and reflections will follow. in the coming month
Keeping God’s Law and Word
“Hear the word of Jehovah, O leaders of Sodom; give heed to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah!” (Isaiah 1:10)
“It is the will of Jehovah that, because of his righteousness, they magnify the law and become illustrious.” (Isaiah 42:21)
“But they have no desire to walk in his ways or obey his law. So in the heat of his anger he pours out on them the violence of war, till it envelopes them in flames—yet they remain unaware—till it sets them on fire; yet they take it not to heart.” (Isaiah 42:24–25)
“Go now, write on tablets concerning them; record it in a book for the endtime, as a testimony forever. They are a rebellious people, sons who break faith, children unwilling to obey the law of Jehovah.” (Isaiah 30:8–9)
“As a blazing fire consumes stubble, and as dry weeds wane before the flame, so shall their roots decay away and their blossoms fly up like dust. For they have despised the law of Jehovah of Hosts and reviled the words of the Holy One of Israel.” (Isaiah 5:24)
“Bind up the testimony; seal the law among my disciples. I will wait for Jehovah, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and expect him.” (Isaiah 8:16–17)
“Hear me, you who know righteousness, O people in whose heart is my law: Do not fear the reproach of men; be undaunted by their ridicule.” (Isaiah 51:7)
“As the rains and snows descend from the sky, and return not to it without watering the earth, to render it fertile and fruitful—providing seed for the sower and food for the eater—so is the word that leaves my mouth: it does not return to me empty; it accomplishes what I desire, achieves the purpose for which I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:10–11)
“Listen to me, my people; give heed to me, O my nation: The law shall go forth from me; my precepts shall be a light to the peoples. Then, suddenly, I will act: My righteousness shall be at hand and my salvation proceed; my arms shall judge the peoples—the isles anticipate me, awaiting my arm.” (Isaiah 51:4–5)
“This is my covenant with them, says Jehovah: My Spirit which is upon you and my words which I have placed in your mouth shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your offspring, nor from the mouth of their offspring, says Jehovah, from now on and forever.” (Isaiah 59:21)
“Your ears shall hear words from behind you saying, This is the way; walk in it! should you turn left or right.” (Isaiah 30:21)
“For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and from Jerusalem the word of Jehovah. He will judge between the nations and arbitrate for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares, their spears into pruning hooks: nation will not lift the sword against nation, nor will they learn warfare anymore.” (Isaiah 2:3–4)
Question about the Law of Translated Beings
Question: How is the law translated beings observe different from that of other celestial people?
Answer: While all celestial persons such as God’s elect keep a celestial law, some do so on a higher spiritual level than others. What set the three Nephite disciples of Jesus who inherited the Father’s kingdom apart from the nine who went to Jesus’ kingdom was their desire to “bring the souls of men unto me, while the world shall stand” (3 Nephi 28:9; cf. vv 3, 8). That was also “the thing which John, my beloved, who was with me in my ministry, before that I was lifted up by the Jews, desired of me” (3 Nephi 28:6)—John similarly being translated.
This was likewise the desire of Alma who—after a long and difficult ministry in the flesh—was evidently translated: “When Alma had done this he departed out of the land of Zarahemla, as if to go into the land of Melek. And it came to pass that he was never heard of more; as to his death or burial we know not of. Behold, this we know, that he was a righteous man; and the saying went abroad in the church that he was taken up by the Spirit” (Alma 45:18–19).
Didn’t Alma express his desire to bring souls to Jesus so long as the world shall stand when he exclaimed, “O that I were an angel, and could have the wish of mine heart, that I might go forth and speak with the trump of God, with a voice to shake the earth, and cry repentance unto every people!” (Alma 29:1)? That kind of universal ministry—beyond a person’s home environment—is precisely the ministry of translated beings such as the 144,000 end-time servants of God:
“What are we to understand by sealing the one hundred and forty-four thousand, out of all the tribes of Israel—twelve thousand out of every tribe? A. We are to understand that those who are sealed are high priests, ordained unto the holy order of God, to administer the everlasting gospel; for they are they who are ordained out of every nation, kindred, tongue, and people, by the angels to whom is given power over the nations of the earth, to bring as many as will come to the church of the Firstborn” (Doctrine & Covenants 77:11)—the Church of the Firstborn being God’s elect (cf. Matthew 24:31).
The laws of God that (1) his elect, (2) translated beings, and (3) the Savior himself obey all follow the principle of proxy salvation pertaining to the Davidic Covenant in which a person ministers as a savior to others. The difference is that God’s elect keep the terms of the Davidic Covenant on a local level—as within their own families or circle of friends—while translated beings keep these terms on a worldwide level, and Christ on a universal level. The kind of proxy salvation pertaining to these three levels thus varies accordingly: the first consists of physical protection, the second of divine intervention, and the third of spiritual salvation from sin.
