"The Recalibration of Awareness – Apr 20/21, 2012 (Kryon channeled by Lee Carroll) (Subjects: Old Energy, Recalibration Lectures, God / Creator, Religions/Spiritual systems (Catholic Church, Priests/Nun’s, Worship, John Paul Pope, Women in the Church otherwise church will go, Current Pope won’t do it), Middle East, Jews, Governments will change (Internet, Media, Democracies, Dictators, North Korea, Nations voted at once), Integrity (Businesses, Tobacco Companies, Bankers/ Financial Institutes, Pharmaceutical company to collapse), Illuminati (Started in Greece, with Shipping, Financial markets, Stock markets, Pharmaceutical money (fund to build Africa, to develop)), Shift of Human Consciousness, (Old) Souls, Women, Masters to/already come back, Global Unity.... etc.) - (Text version)

… 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. …

At last, an official national atlas

The Jakarta Post | Thu, 02/05/2009 10:08 PM  

The National Coordinating Agency for Surveys and Mapping (Bakosurtanal) launched for the first time in the nation's history the Official National Atlas of Indonesia, which has taken to produce at a cost of Rp 2 billion (US$170,000) to produce. 

"I should say it's about time we had an official atlas. We're very late in achieving this compared to other nations," Research and Technology Minister Kusmayanto Kadiman said at the launching of the atlas on Thursday. 

Kusmayanto said the closest thing the nation has ever had to a national atlas has been the Netherland Indies Atlas, a legacy of the Dutch colonial period, which was published back in 1938.

"That map was so outdated, it was no longer fit for use." he said. 

Agency head Rudolf W. Matindas said the new atlas had come a long way from its colonial predecessor. 

The publication is replete with themed maps, illustrations, photographs and satellite images. "We can see how much the size of the areas of green space, irrigation and the transportation systems have changed." 

The atlas also points out in detail the nation's disaster-prone areas along with pictures and illustrations of the impact of the 2004 tsunami in Aceh. 

The atlas is to be published in three volumes. The first explains at length the nation's natural traits, including its climatic, geological and marine conditions. 

The second volume will focus on the archipelago's natural resources and potential. The third will address the country's history, culture and political borders, and it may include a new official enumeration of the nation's islands, Rudolf said. (dis)
