… 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. …

Seoul Ties up with Indonesian Tribe Using Korean Alphabet

SEOUL, KOMPAS.com - A small Indonesian tribe that lacks its own written language signed an agreement Tuesday to promote a script pioneered by a Korean king almost six centuries ago. The Cia-Cia tribe, living around Bau-Bau city in Southeast Sulawesi, earlier this year announced it was adopting Korea’s unique Hangeul alphabet to transcribe its spoken tribal language.

On Tuesday Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon and Amirul Tamim, mayor of Bau-Bau, signed a letter of intent to promote the spread of Hengeul and cultural exchanges. The Seoul city government will help set up a centre in Bau-Bau to train language teachers and support the exchanges.

South Korea has already provided manpower and material support including Korean-language textbooks for members of the tribe, which totals about 60,000. The Bau-Bau mayor arrived on Monday for a six-day visit, leading a nine-member delegation including the tribal chief.

Oh said his city and the central government would push to spread the Korean alphabet further afield after its adoption by the Cia-Cia — the first such case worldwide. Koreans are intensely proud of their 24-character Hangeul alphabet, which was introduced by King Sejong the Great around 1443 to supersede the use of Chinese characters.

International linguists have praised its logical structure. A Bau-Bau City official said the Indonesian tribe had chosen Hangeul script, in preference to the Latin alphabet used by the rest of the archipelago, because it was better suited to the nuances of their language.

“We’ve decided to adopt the Korean alphabet as this system can transcribe words correctly which, if written in Latin alphabet, cannot be discerned,” the official, Ibnu Wahid, told AFP. The Hunminjeongeum Research Institute, a Seoul linguistic society, has been trying for years to spread the Korean alphabet to minorities across Asia which lack their own writing system.
