The Illumination Code

“Kim Chestney’s codes bring you closer to the comprehension of a reality that was wholly hidden prior to the quantum discoveries.” — Ervin László, author of Science and the Akashic Field Intuition — the extraordinary ability to access information from the quantum realms — is fast becoming humanity’s most advanced form of knowledge acquisition. The Illumination Code presents seven keys to unlock your inner dimension so you can access expanded states of awareness that exist beyond the limits of the rational mind. Kim Chestney reveals the deeply personal nature of the universe while offering a new way to know the unknowable and experience the seemingly impossible. As you venture inward on this step-by-step journey, you will gain profound insights and discover the true power of your own inner wisdom.

They came seeking Illumination. Did they find it? Well, how would they know? What makes you think you're "enlightened"? Maybe you're one of those false awakeners. How do you know that your "enlightenment" isn't illusory? What criteria are you using to determine what "enlightenment" is? Why those criteria? Have you ever even thought about it? And if you haven't, how can you possibly be enlightened? Enlightenment isn't ignorance. It's not about willfully ignoring the facts. It's not about turning your back on reason and logic. It's not about severe cognitive deficits. It's not about annihilating your mind ("nirvana"). It's not about unconditional love. It's not about your feelings at all. It's not about super-duper mystical intuition. It's not about perfecting your senses. It's about none of those. Project Illumination is about showing what Illumination is really all about. Come inside and expose yourself to the light of reason, the only thing that can truly Illuminate you. Are you ready to receive the light? Let's light this thing up.

The Code for Lighting has been revised and updated to include exterior lighting as well as interior lighting. The book takes into account new legislation such as the 2002 revision of Part L of the Building Regulations as well as new and forthcoming International and European Standards on lighting and ergonomics. It also reflects new initiatives on energy conservation in the UK. This book is primarily intended to provide guidance to those responsible for the design, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of building services.

In a very broad sense the historical development of computer graphics can be considered in three phases, each a giant step down the road towards "realistic" computer generated images. The first, during the late 1960's and early 1970's, can perhaps be characterized as the "wire frame" era. Basically pictures were composed of lines. Considerable em phasis was placed on "real time" interactive manipulation of the model. As models became more complex and as raster technology developed, eliminating the hidden lines or hidden surfaces from the image became critical for visual understanding. This requirement resulted in the second phase of computer graphics, the "hidden surface" era, that developed during the 1970's and early 1980's. The names associated with hidden surface algorithms read like a who's who of computer graphics. The cul mination of the hidden surface era and the beginning of the current and third era in computer graphics, the "rendering" era, was Turner Whitted's incorporation of a global illumination model into the ray trac ing algorithm. Now the goal was not just to generate an image, but to generate a realistic appearing image.

Manifest Your Dreams in a New World for Yourself and Others Our day-to-day choices, made individually, affect our culture and societal structures as a whole. With this in mind, Sacred Codes in Times of Crisis guides you through an extraordinary program of self-realization and empowerment to access your creative potential and manifest your dreams. Learn the art of true, conscious creation. We spend our lives searching for things that we think will make our lives better, more abundant, loving and fulfilling. Yet, as we take part in our day-to-day busy lives, we often get sidetracked from our truest dreams and desires. Instead of creating the life that we have always dreamed of, we get lost in an endless series of events where we are often unprepared, reactionary, and less tolerant. In order to create with consciousness, to manifest our soul’s wishes into reality, we need to believe there is a greater part of ourselves that is able to guide us, so that we can live our dreams by loving ourselves unconditionally. Embrace Change and transform alongside our interdependent, constantly changing world. If we want to stay up to date in an accelerated technological world, we need to adapt and be willing and open to learning new ways of communicating and inter-relating with ourselves and the world around us. In Sacred Codes in Times of Crisis, spiritual leaders Naomi Fay and Nathalie Moutia teach you: The interconnected nature of all things and the universal truth of oneness Awareness exercises and meditations to support the creation process Channeled text and wisdom teachings to aid conscious co-creation How to manifest your dreams Readers of self-realization and spiritual development books like Becoming Supernatural, Advanced Manifesting, or Attunement will be inspired and encouraged by the words of wisdom in Sacred Codes in Times of Crisis.
