“… 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. …”

First Lady Ani Yudhoyono Pledges to Buy More Batik From Cirebon

Indonesian First Lady Ani Yudhoyono and the wives of government ministers made a pledge to spend more money on Cirebon batik during a visit to workshops on Tuesday.

The first lady made the promise in front of 250 batik craftsmen and craftswomen in the West Java town.

“We didn’t come here only because of our love for batik, but also because we want to strengthen Cirebon’s economy as well as West Java’s. God willing, we will spend what we have to develop Cirebon,” Ani said.

Ani went to Cirebon with an entourage of more than 200 people, including ministers’ wives from the first and second United Indonesia cabinets, wives of Suharto era ministers, as well as a number of spouses of foreign ambassadors. They traveled to Cirebon by train from Jakarta.

Ani also invited the wives of the owners of the nation’s television stations.

“These are the bosses’ wives. Hopefully they have fat pockets,” she said.

The first lady said the women wanted to promote West Java batik, which often gained less recognition compared to that from Yogyakarta or Solo in Central Java.

Minister of Culture and Tourism Jero Wacik, who joined the entourage, said he hoped the ladies were serious about conserving batik.

“This is one of the most exciting tours I have had in 100 days. There are five train cars, a lot of ambassadors’ wives, ministers’ wives, businessmen’s wives. So if the ladies did not do any shopping, it means they only like to talk about batik conservation,” Jero said.
