… 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. …

Papuans Rally for Independence from Indonesia

Jakarta Globe, June 18, 2010

Jayapura. Hundreds of Papuans protested on Friday to reject the region’s special autonomy within Indonesia and demand a referendum on self-determination.

Members of the Papuan People’s Assembly (MRP), an upper house of tribal leaders, voted Monday to reject autonomy status, introduced in 2001 after the fall of the Suharto military dictatorship in Jakarta.

Witnesses said about 1,000 people were marching 17 kilometers from Abepura to the provincial parliament in Jayapura to symbolically “return” autonomy status, which protesters said had failed indigenous Melanesians.

“The Papuan People’s Assembly have made a decision to return special autonomy status to the central government. We’re heading now to the Papuan legislative council to submit the result,” protest leader Markus Haluk said.

“We’ll ask [provincial lawmakers] to hold a plenary meeting to hand it back officially to the central government.”

Protesters carried banners reading “Hold a referendum now”, “Independence is not negotiable” and “Reject Special Autonomy.”

Autonomy status has seen powers including control of most tax revenue from natural resources devolved to the provincial government, but many Papuans say it has failed to improve their rights and dignity.

Foreign media and aid workers are not allowed into Papua and West Papua provinces to independently verify allegations of gross human rights abuses and genocide against the indigenous people.

“The special autonomy has failed to bring prosperity and protection to Papuans. We want a referendum to be held to settle the political status of Papua,” said Haluk, of the Papua Central Highland Students Association.

“We call for a dialogue with the central government which must be mediated by a third party from international bodies.”

Papua has been the scene of a low-level insurgency for decades and despite Indonesia’s vast security presence in the region, Jakarta remains extremely sensitive about any sign of separatism.

Indonesia has sent mixed messages about its willingness to loosen its grip on Papua, offering talks with separatist rebels on one hand while jailing and killing their leaders on the other.
