"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. …”

Government Wants the Media to Help in Defense

Tempo Interactive, Tuesday, 30 March, 2010 | 17:15 WIB

TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta:The Minister of Defense, Purnomo Yusgiantoro, said that the mass media could have a role in the efforts to defend the country’s security.

“The media’s role is very important,” said Purnomo in the Defense Image Building workshop in Jakarta yesterday.

According to Purnomo, recent threats to the country’s security have not been always in the form of military power.

Terrorism organized by small group of people, for example, can shake a country and even global stability.

Purnomo explained that there are three media functions in a country’s defense.

First, the media can prevent threats in the form of propaganda from those who want to destabilize a country’s security.

Second, the media can incite a spirit of citizen’s patriotism to sacrifice for the country.

Last, the media could be a weapon to deter another party’s intention to destroy a nation.

“By conveying the weakness of the one who threatens a country’s security,” said Purnomo.

But Purnomo said he refused to use the media as propaganda tool.

Media, he said, had to uphold journalism principles, such as broadcasting news that is balanced, objective, factual and accurate.

The Deputy Chairman of the Press Council, Bambang Harimurti, said that the media had the same intention as the government to defend the country.

“The difference is in the method,” he said.

To reach a synergy between the media and the government, according to Bambang, numerous discussions between the two parties need to be held.

Bambang also reminded the government about the importance of information transparency and press freedom.

Referring to a study, Bambang said that information transparency and press freedom have a positive correlation with the level of a state’s welfare.
