i. Critical Mass. Spiritual unfoldings in human culture achieved through a critical mass of individual experiences, a journey led by unexplainable coincidences.
ii. Longer View. An awakening represents birth of a more complete worldview that reveals purpose of human life and nature of man’s universe.
iii. Energy. Our experience is not wholly carnal, which includes a universe of dynamic energy. Everything extant has a field of energy that can be sensed and intuited. :: Postulating a degree of Quantum Physics.
iv. Power Struggle. Competition for dynamic energy, root cause of human conflict, is a source of mental strength and security. Empowerment is sought at the cost of other people through manipulation or force to provide attention and thus energy.
v. Message of Mystics. Mystics of all traditions prescribe that Energy, such as a constant sensation of love, are measures of divine energy within.

vi. Viewing past with clarity. More connected, more acutely aware of when connection is lost, such as through the actions and effects caused when under stress. Connection enables discovery of ones path in life in the world.
vii. Flow of energy. Question leads to dreams, daydreams, and intuitions lead towards answers, which are usually synchronistically provided by the wisdom of another human being.
viii. Interpersonal Ethic. Frequency of guiding coincidences is increased by uplifting persons that comes into our lives.. when effected in groups where each member is cognizant all the others, this increases likelihood of hearing a synchronistic message.
viv. Emerging Culture. Human progression over time may mean that the focus on higher energy states may mean to ultimately transform corporeal human bodies into spiritual form, uniting corporeal with the here-after, closing the loop of Alpha and Omega.

x. Vision. Achieving a conscious realisation that throughout human history, strife has been unconsciously towards a common shared lived spirituality on Earth. This may be achieved through daily conscious effort on intention and prayer.
xi. Extending prayer field. Prescribed method through which vision is held: “Scriptures, poems, and philosophies have pointed to a latent power of mind within all.. to affect..the future..called faith power, positive thinking, and power of prayer.
..prayer power is a field of intention, which moves out from us and can be extended and strengthened..when connected with others in a common vision..to make this vision a reality.”

THE FIRST INSIGHT . . . A CRITICAL MASS
A new spiritual awakening is occurring in human culture, an awakening brought about by a critical mass of individuals who experience their lives as a spiritual unfolding, a journey in which we are led forward by mysterious coincidences.
THE SECOND INSIGHT . . . THE LONGER NOW
This awakening represents the creation of a new, more complete worldview, which replaces a five-hundred-year-old preoccupation with secular survival and comfort. While this technological preoccupation was an important step, our awakening to life's coincidences is opening us up to the real purpose of human life on this planet, and the real nature of our universe.
THE THIRD INSIGHT . . . A MATTER OF ENERGY
We now experience that we live not in a material universe, but in a universe of dynamic energy. Everything extant is a field of sacred energy that we can sense and intuit. Moreover, we humans can project our energy by focusing our attention in the desired direction...where attention goes, energy flows...influencing other energy systems and increasing the pace of coincidences in our lives.
THE FOURTH INSIGHT . . . THE STRUGGLE FOR POWER
Too often humans cut themselves off from the greater source of this energy and so feel weak and insecure. To gain energy we tend to manipulate or force others to give us attention and thus energy. When we successfully dominate others in this way, we feel more powerful, but they are left weakened and often fight back. Competition for scarce, human energy is the cause of all conflict between people.
THE FIFTH INSIGHT . . . THE MESSAGE OF THE MYSTICS
Insecurity and violence ends when we experience an inner connection with divine energy within, a connection described by mystics of all traditions. A sense of lightness--buoyancy--along with the constant sensation of love are measures of this connection. If these measures are present, the connection is real. If not, it is only pretended.
THE SIXTH INSIGHT . . . CLEARING THE PAST
The more we stay connected, the more we are acutely aware of those times when we lose connection, usually when we are under stress. In these times, we can see our own particular way of stealing energy from others. Once our manipulations are brought to personal awareness, our connection becomes more constant and we can discover our own growth path in life, and our spiritual mission--the personal way we can contribute to the world.
THE SEVENTH INSIGHT . . . ENGAGING THE FLOW
Knowing our personal mission further enhances the flow of mysterious coincidences as we are guided toward our destinies. First we have a question; then dreams, daydreams, and intuitions lead us towards the answers, which usually are synchronistically provided by the wisdom of another human being.
THE EIGHTH INSIGHT . . . THE INTERPERSONAL ETHIC
We can increase the frequency of guiding coincidences by uplifting every person that comes into our lives. Care must be taken not to lose our inner connection in romantic relationships. Uplifting others is especially effective in groups where each member can feel energy of all the others. With children it is extremely important for their early security and growth. By seeing the beauty in every face, we lift others into their wisest self, and increase the chances of hearing a synchronistic message.
THE NINTH INSIGHT . . . THE EMERGING CULTURE
As we all evolve toward the best completion of our spiritual missions, the technological means of survival will be fully automated as humans focus instead on synchronistic growth. Such growth will move humans into higher energy states, ultimately transforming our bodies into spiritual form and uniting this dimension of existence with the after-life dimension, ending the cycle of birth and death.
THE TENTH INSIGHT . . . HOLDING THE VISION
The Tenth Insight is the realization that throughout history human beings have been unconsciously struggling to implement this lived spirituality on Earth. Each of us comes here on assignment, and as we pull this understanding into consciousness, we can remember a fuller birth vision of what we wanted to accomplish with our lives. Further we can remember a common world vision of how we will all work together to create a new spiritual culture. We know that our challenge is to hold this vision with intention and prayer everyday.
THE ELEVENTH INSIGHT . . . EXTENDING PRAYER FIELDS
The Eleventh Insight is the precise method through which we hold the vision. For centuries, religious scriptures, poems, and philosophies have pointed to a latent power of mind within all of us that mysteriously helps to affect what occurs in the future. It has been called faith power, positive thinking, and the power of prayer. We are now taking this power seriously enough to bring a fuller knowledge of it into public awareness. We are finding that this prayer power is a field of intention, which moves out from us and can be extended and strengthened, especially when we connect with others in a common vision. This is the power through which we hold the vision of a spiritual world and build the energy in ourselves and in others to make this vision a reality.

Your DNA is the obvious answer, but this is one of those questions which if fully thought about goes on into infinity. Because a persons DNA is an imprint on us from time in memorial.We can have characteristics from ancestors that could have lived round the other side of the world.
Therefore my conclusion is, I am not me I am a mixture of them.
So, who were the first in the DNA chain?

my personality, my mannerisms, my sense of humor, or lack of a sense of humor, my hard center, my soft underside. what really defines who i am is not the person i think i am, but the person who people think i am, noone can describe you better than someone else, their view is probably the most truthsome.
