The Wisdom of Your Cell

About the Author: One of the shining lights to emerge from the new sciences is cellular biologist and bestselling author, Bruce Lipton PhD. His work explains the groundbreaking insight into the function of genes, and gives evidence disproving the old vision that genes are self actualizing (turn on and off).  He thoroughly explains how current scientific data reveals that there is no such thing as an on/off function for a gene because genes are blueprints (plans) to make proteins, which are the building blocks that give shape to the structure.

Indigo and Crystalline Children

 

The Indigo Children have been incarnating on the Earth for the last 100 years. The early Indigos were pioneers and wayshowers. After World War II, a significant number were born, and these are the Indigo adults of today. However, in the 1970s a major wave of Indigos were born. We now have a whole generation of Indigos who are in their late twenties and early thirties who are about to take their place as leaders in the world. Indigos continued to be born up to about the year 2000, with increasing abilities and degrees of technological and creative sophistication.

 

The Crystal Children began to appear on the planet around the year 2000. These are extremely powerful children, whose main purpose is to take us to the next level in our evolution, and reveal to us our inner power and divinity. They function as a group consciousness rather than as individuals, and they live by the" Law of One" or Unity Consciousness.
