"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. …

Tallest Man in Indonesia Falls Short of World Record

A 25-year-old Indonesian laborer could be a contender for the title of world’s tallest man, currently held by Turkish farmer Kosen, a local archivist said.

Suparwono stands 2.71 meters or 8.89 feet tall according to unofficial measurements, compared to Kosen’s record height of 2.47 meters.

He shot to fame this week after one of his relatives in his home village of Tri Tunggal Jaya, in Lampung, invited neighbors to take pictures of him. Within days, he was appearing on television talk shows in Jakarta as the “Giant of Lampung.”

“Our team will name him today as Indonesia’s tallest man, breaking a previous record of 2.21 meters,” Museum of Records (MURI) manager Ngadri said. “We will make some approaches for him to be registered [with Guinness World Records] as the tallest man in the world.”

Suparwono said sometimes he felt “proud” of his height, but “it also gives me problems because I can’t live like normal people,” citing the difficulty of fitting into public buses and finding clothes large enough for his frame.

“I started to realize my exceptional height when I was 10 years old. At that time, I was already the tallest at my school and in my village,” he said.

“I eat three kilograms of rice every day and at least 15 eggs,” he added.

One of five children, he hoped as a teenager to be a basketball star but his body couldn’t stand the stress of elite sport, according to his former coach, Willy Winoto.

Suparwono lives with his parents and earns money doing odd jobs around the village.

But Lampung Governor Sjachroedin Zainal promised to give him a “proper job” and make him an ambassador for the province.
