… 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. …

Indonesia to submit three cultural assets to UNESCO

Antara News, Monday, December 27, 2010

Denpasar, Bali (ANTARA News) - Indonesia will submit three of its national cultural assets to UNESCO in 2011 to be appraised for inclusion in its list of World Cultural Heritages, a culture ministry official said.

"The three cultural assets to be submitted to UNESCO are a number of Balinese dances, the indigenous Papua household article called Noken, and the Beautiful Indonesia in Miniature Park (TMII)," said Harry Waluyo, director of the Cultural and Tourism Resources Agency (BSDKP) at the Culture and Tourism Ministry said here on Monday.

Waluyo said the three cultural assets will be submitted to UNESCO because they represent geographical parts of Indonesia outside Java. So far, the cultural assets for which Indonesia had proposed recognition as World Heritages by UNESCO were those of Java such as the Angklung (bamboo musical instrument) from West Java, batik cloth, wayang puppets from Central Java.

After the selection of cultural assets from Java, our next choice of Indonesian cultural assets to be submitted to UNESCO are articles or things from Bali and Papua," Waluyo said.

He said nine kinds of Balinese dances each representing a particular region in Bali would be proposed to UNESCO.

From Papua, the cultural asset to be nominated is the Noken, a Papuan people`s icon. The Noken, or Agiya, is a multi-purpose household device made of strong forest fibres in which Papuan women put their babies to lull them to sleep, or hogs, food items or clothes.

Nowadays, the Noken is decorated with certain colorful ornaments to make it look mroe attractive. A Noken can be bought at traditional markets in Papua for Rp 15,000- Rp100,000.

The TMII in East Jakarta, constructed in 1971, is a park reflecting the cultural richness of each Indonesian province, It was selected for submission to UNESCO on the consideration that the concept could serve as a model of non-material cultural management to other countries.

The process for the submission of the three cultural assets to UNESCO had already started and would end on March 31, 2011.

Apart from the three cultural assets, UNESCO in 2011 would announce the unique Saman dancing from Aceh province as a World Cultural Heritage.
