“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Cultural and economic factors cause illiteracy: Kalla

MATARAM (Antara): Indonesian Vice President M Jusuf Kalla said Saturday the high illiteracy rate in Indonesia was caused by cultural and economic factor.The Vice President made his speech at an International Literacy Day function in Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB)."We have been conducting various programs to free the nation from illiteracy for a long time," he said.

Currently the government was intensifying a nine-year compulsory education program as part of the national literacy program, he said, citing that in general, provinces which had sent workers abroad had relatively high illiteracy rates.

"For instance, East Java, West Nusa Tenggara and Bugis (South Sulawesi) where many of their residents working abroad have high illiteracy rates," he said.

Education Minister Bambang Sudibyo said the International Literacy Day was initiated by UNESCO (United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization) members in 1965.

"Illiteracy is closely linked with ignorance. Therefore, UNESCO and a number of its member countries have launched a fight against illiteracy program," the minister said.

UNESCO said that the vital relationship between literacy and health is the focus of this year's International Literacy Day celebrated around the world on Sept. 8.

In his message. the Director-General of UNESCO, Koichiro Matsuura, said "Literacy strengthens the capabilities of people to take advantage of health care and educational opportunities - for example, by seeking medical help for themselves and a sick child, by adopting preventive health measures such as immunization, and by acquiring greater knowledge of family planning methods."

"Educated parents, especially mothers - whether through formal schooling or adult programs - are more likely to send their children to school and have a better understanding of their health care needs," he said.

Despite the various effort to fight against illiteracy, some 774 million adults lack minimum literacy skills; one in five adults is still not literate— with two-thirds of them are women; 72.1 million children are out of school and many more attend irregularly or drop out, UNESCO data read
