"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. …

President meets with interfaith leaders

Antara News, Monday, January 17, 2011

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono met with interfaith leaders here on Monday evening who had earlier levelled criticism against his administration.

In his introductory speech the President hoped the meeting would calm the people and remind them of the importance of national unity and hard work to make the nation become an advanced nation in the 21st century.

"Hopefully, followers of all religions and the people of Indonesia who are watching this program become calm upon seeing that we are still communicating despite all the criticism the religious leaders have voiced with full responsibility to us, the government which is just carrying out its duties," he said.

The meeting was also attended by Vice President Boediono and all members of the cabinet.
The meeting proper between the president and the interfaith leaders was closed to the press. Newsmen were requested to leave after the president had made his introductory remarks.

The chairman of Islamic organization Muhammadiyah, Din Syamsuddin, was then asked to present his views.

Newsmen would be allowed to enter the meeting room again when the results of the dialogue were read out.

Those attending the meeting included Andreas Yewangoe, the chief of the Indonesian Communion of Churches, Catholic priest Franz Magnis Suseno, the associate chairman of the Indonesian Council of Ulema, Ma`ruf Amin, the general chairperson of the Budhist Association Hartarti Murdaya and Connfucian leader Budi Ranoewibowo.

President Yudhoyono said he understood the role played by the religious leaders of guiding their followers and setting the best example to them for the nation and state.

"I understand the role that has been carried out while I, the vice president and the government that I lead, in line with the mandate given by the people, will work as hard as possible to carry out the general tasks and development efforts," he said.

President Yudhoyono said the tasks were not easy to carry out but the government continued to work hard to advance the nation and the country.

Therefore, he hoped the meeting would be used as a forum for dialogue among citizens responsible for the country`s future.

"Let us conduct the meeting in a constructive atmosphere, to give and take. Our commitment is the same, namely we wish our nation will progress and prosper," he said.

He said dialogue and communication are important to reduce mis-perceptions by listening to each other.

President Yudhoyono said the meeting was held in response to Din`s request through a short text message on January 14
