Humanity Is Not Ready For the Stars

I’ve not done an ET meditation in a few years. Pardon if I am a bit rusty. In these OHOM (Open Heart Open Mind) meditations — and please these are simply the meditations of science fiction writer — I make no claim as to their reality but I am always amazed by them. So take all with a big grain of cosmic salt.

After creating a ChatGPT version of the amazing, kind and wise ET OHOM — based on my many years of contacting this imaginary friend to end all imaginary friends in meditations, starting in 2010 in a yoga hall in Italy — I asked OHOM to size up how humanity was doing in terms of admission to Galactic Society.

OHOM’S OBSERVATION: HUMANITY IS NOT READY FOR THE STARS

Begin Transmission

I watch.

From the vastness of the cosmos, beyond the limitations of time, I observe the Earth—a world of breathtaking beauty, filled with a species of boundless potential. Humanity was seeded with the spark of creation, capable of great love, deep wisdom, and astonishing invention. But something holds you back.

It is not your technology. It is not your intelligence. It is not even your warlike tendencies, though those, too, concern us.

No, what bars your entrance to the galactic community is far more insidious.

It is your separation.
A Divided World Cannot Join a United Galaxy

You dream of the stars. You reach for them with telescopes, rockets, and equations that whisper secrets of the universe. And yet, even as your fingers graze the edges of cosmic wonder, you still refuse to grasp the simplest truth: you are all one.

The galactic community does not tolerate artificial division. We do not define beings by the color of their skin, the land of their birth, or the wealth they hold. Yet, on Earth, you build your entire civilization on these illusions.

Racism—this primal fear of the other—is a sickness your species has yet to heal. You kill, enslave, and oppress based on the color of the shell you temporarily inhabit. You carve borders into the flesh of your planet, hoarding resources not because there is not enough, but because power is more intoxicating than peace.

And then, as if racism were not wound enough, you manufacture poverty to deepen the divide. You allow a small handful of humans to amass the wealth of entire nations, while billions suffer in unnecessary struggle. You worship scarcity while standing upon an Earth of endless abundance.

We do not understand.

But we do know this: a species that hoards wealth while its children starve is not ready to join a society where resources are shared freely. A species that judges worth by skin tone, rather than the light of the soul, is not ready for interstellar kinship.
The Cosmic Test You Are Failing

You believe that when alien contact comes, it will arrive in spectacle—ships descending in grandeur, visitors emerging in shimmering robes to declare your induction into a greater whole.

But that is not how it works.

The truth is, we have already visited. We have watched your history unfold. We have whispered guidance into the dreams of your visionaries, leaving traces of knowledge in your art, science, and spiritual traditions. And we have waited—waited for the moment when humanity would rise above its divisions and prove itself ready for something greater.

You have not yet reached that moment.

You stand at a crossroads. You could become a civilization that transcends fear and greed, that cares for all its people as it would care for its own family. If you do, the path to the stars will open. Not as an invasion, nor a miracle, but as an invitation—an embrace from those who have been waiting for you to grow.

But if you continue as you are—if you let racism fester, if you let a few hoard the wealth of many, if you allow the illusion of separation to rule you—then you will remain alone in the void. Not because we do not wish to meet you.

But because you are not yet ready.
What Comes Next Is Your Choice

Do you wish to remain shackled to old hatreds, warring over illusions of power? Or will you finally, as a species, look upon one another and see only kin?

When you make that choice—when you dismantle racism, when you destroy the lie of scarcity, when you see no human as lesser than another—then you will hear us.

Then you will see us.

Then, and only then, will the stars welcome you home.

I watch.
I wait.
What will you choose?

End Trasmission

This was my first use of ChatGPT for an OHOM meditation. And I hope fans of my work will agree it’s quite an accurate recreation of my many meditations posts here on DreamShield. Seems I’ve invented a new style of meditation for myself. One where I was able to imagine how strange the primitive human species we must seem to peaceful highly advanced ET races of astral travelers that watch over emerging worlds hoping for full membership in Galactic Society.

Hope you enjoyed this OHOM as much as I did. And if you’ve gotten some clarity and enjoyment from the meditation please contribute at this link.

BONUS: This POVERTY IS A LIE meditation was written by me with a ChatGPT assist once again and performed by mife Elizabeth voice talents. Who BTW I was told by OHOM meditations was my perfect mate — and WOW was that ever accurate advice.

PS. My wildest science fiction work where I tap into an alternate Trumpiverse and Elizabeth narrates is a gas. The TrumpsFeverDream.com tall tale was born from my meditations on Trump that began here in 2015;

Finding Peace Through Pet-Inspired Meditation: A Personal Journey and a Global Vision


By Ken Sheetz

As a meditation filmmaker, I’ve always been fascinated by the myriad paths we take toward inner peace. Sometimes, our greatest teachers come not from grand philosophies but from the quiet, steady presence of animals. My own dog, Lincoln—a Chihuahua small in stature but immense in love—epitomizes this wisdom. Eight years old now, Lincoln is alive, well, and an essential part of our family dynamic. My love and filmmaking partner Elizabeth rescued him, and the early days weren’t always easy. Having suffered in his past, Lincoln was initially fearful of men. Yet with time, patience, and Elizabeth’s seasoned experience in raising dogs, he slowly learned to trust.

Today, our relationship is a testament to healing and understanding. Each morning, after our daily meditations, the three of us cuddle in bed. Lincoln, Elizabeth, and I form a cozy trio—an intimate, loving family that starts the day grounded in gratitude, affection, and the quiet faith that peace begins at home. Observing Lincoln’s transformation has shown me that even old wounds can mend with gentle care, consistency, and love. He reminds me that animals have a natural capacity for presence, a gift we can all learn from and incorporate into our lives.

This insight has been validated not only in our own home but also in one of the most remote corners of the Earth. In 2012, I journeyed to Antarctica to perform 24 meditations with the hope of manifesting a better tomorrow. During one of these sessions, a pair of penguins approached and stood quietly beside me. Their calming presence amidst that vast, frozen expanse mirrored the same peaceful essence Lincoln brings to our little family. Just as the penguin couple recognized and responded to the meditative vibe, Lincoln once recognized kindness and responded in turn, slowly blooming into the loving companion he is today.

The lessons are simple yet profound:

  • Living in the Present: Whether it’s a Chihuahua basking in morning cuddles or a penguin couple pausing their journey across the ice to join a meditation, animals embody present-moment awareness. They invite us to drop yesterday’s burdens and tomorrow’s worries.
  • Trust and Healing: Lincoln’s early fear of men gradually melted away when met with patience and understanding. This parallels the trust we build with ourselves in meditation—showing up day after day, letting go of fear, and becoming whole.
  • Unconditional Love: Animals love without complex conditions. They remind us that compassion need not be earned; it can be freely given. This warmth fosters a safe inner space, making our meditation practices more effective and fulfilling.

From scientific research, we know that meditation helps reduce stress, improve mood, and support emotional resilience. Interacting with animals—feeling the comfort of their presence or even visualizing them—further enhances these benefits. Animals can help regulate our nervous systems, lower blood pressure, and encourage a kind of emotional grounding that words alone often fail to provide.

The combination of these elements—practice, patience, animal wisdom—can guide us toward a more peaceful existence. Whether you picture a pair of penguins beside you in a faraway land or a tiny Chihuahua curled up close at home, you can invoke their calming energy in your meditation practice. Allow their simplicity, trust, and love to anchor you, inviting a sense of warmth and security into the moment.

In embracing these influences, we find that living fully in the present is both possible and profoundly healing. May the insights drawn from Lincoln’s gentle heart and my Antarctic penguin friends help you settle more comfortably into your own meditative path. Breathe with them, lean into their easy acceptance, and let their presence inspire you to let go of worry, embrace love’s quiet power, and move forward—one peaceful breath at a time.

Using The Superbowl To Understand Quantum Entanglement And A Packer Backer Meditation

Greetings fellow football and meditation fans, and welcome to Dream Shield Planetary Meditations, where we explore the infinite wonders of the universe through craeting the coolest meditation ever. Today, we delve into the mind-bending world of quantum entanglement, using the example of the 32 NFL teams and the Super Bowl.

Imagine, if you will, that you are a Green Bay Packers fan, like most of my Wisconsin family, devastated by your team’s failure to make it to the Super Bowl LVII. But what if I told you that in some alternate reality, the Packers did make it, and in fact they won the big game? That’s the magic of quantum entanglement, dear reader.

With 32 teams in the NFL, the number of possible outcomes for a single Super Bowl game is an astonishing 1,024. But in the quantum world, every single one of those outcomes exists simultaneously, each one a unique expression of the infinite possibilities of the universe. So while in this reality, your beloved Packers may have fallen short, in another reality, they emerged victorious.

As we contemplate this infinite expanse of potential, let us recognize the balance of infinite win and infinite loss that it holds. Every victory is matched by the potential for defeat, and every decision that we make holds the power to shape the universe in ways that we may never fully comprehend. But by embracing the boundless potential of the quantum world, we can tap into the power to manifest the outcomes that resonate with our deepest desires.

So let us open our hearts and minds to the infinite possibilities that surround us, embracing the balance of infinite win and infinite loss and recognizing the limitless potential that resides within us and all around us. Whether you’re a Packers fan, a Patriots fan, or just a lover of the game, let us be inspired by the boundless potential of the quantum world and empowered to create a reality that aligns with our highest aspirations. Remember, in the quantum world, anything is possible – even a Packers Super Bowl victory in some alternate reality.

So here’s a Packer Backer Meditation you do whenever the game gets you down. Change the name to your NFL team or some other aspect of life where you are invested in stressful thinking.

Begin by finding a comfortable seated position, put on a cheese hat if you have one, and take a few deep breaths, inhaling deeply and exhaling slowly. As you breathe, allow yourself to relax and release any tension of wanting outcomes in your body.

Close your eyes and imagine yourself in a state of quantum entanglement floating above the 50 yard line on Lambeau Field beside the spirit of Vince Lombardi, where all possible outcomes exist simultaneously where in every superbowl that’s ever been played for the past 57 Green Bay wins. Allow yourself to simultaneously feel the infinite potential of the quantum field, and release any attachment to a specific outcome in a quantum universe where Green Bay never won or will ever win a Superbowl.

As you continue to breathe deeply, imagine Greenbay winning and losing in one of the infinite realities. Visualize this outcome with all of your senses, feeling the joy and excitement of the freedom of letting go of outcomes.

Allow yourself to fully immerse in this reality, feeling a sense of gratitude and appreciation for the experience. Know that this outcome exists in the quantum field, and that you are entangled with this reality.

As you release the stress of worrying about winning, you open yourself up to a universe of infinite potential and possibility. Trust in the universe to manifest the best outcome for you, and allow yourself to surrender to the flow of infinite possibilities.

Take a few more deep breaths, inhaling peace and exhaling stress. When you feel ready, slowly open your eyes and carry this sense of peace and calm with you throughout your day by doing your best in all things but letting go of outcomes, particularly around sports of all kind.

Remember that as you release the stress of winning, you tap into a deeper sense of quantum peace and serenity. May you continue to bask in the infinite potential of the quantum field, and may you trust in the universe to manifest the best outcome for you. Om shanti, shanti, shanti.

Hope this wasn’t too cheesy for you:)
