… 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. …

For peace: Bali to host international spiritual event

Dicky Christanto, The Jakarta Post 

Bali will host an international event this month in which dozens of world-famous spiritual leaders would encourage participants to put their good faith into daily practice. 

The travel agent cum spiritual activist who chairs the event's organizing committee, Sudiarta Indrajaya, said on Friday, "I hope their messages will encourage us to continue practicing good behavior in our day-to-day lives." 

"We should allow this event to provide solid proof for our children that we have done our best to maintain love and peace through pluralism." 

Dubbed as the Echo of Peace, the annual event is scheduled to be held at Bajra Sandhi (Bali People's Struggle Monument) in Renon, Denpasar, on Oct. 12. 

"Last year, more than 13,000 people attended the event. Let us hope more attend this year," Sudiart said. 

International figures like UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Bishop Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela, Nobel laureate Mohammad Yunus of Pakistan and sitar virtuoso Ravi Shankar are among those who have confirmed they would contribute their voice recordings for the event. 

Meanwhile in Indonesia, Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika, noted spiritualist Gede Prama, Archbishop of Jakarta Cardinal Julius Riyadi Darmaatmadja SJ, Hindu leader Ida Pedanda Gunung and Ida Bagus Wiyana were slated to attend. 

Official invitations have been sent to leaders in Jakarta, including President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and the People's Consultative Assembly chairman Hidayat Nur Wahid, but only the House of Representatives' speaker Agung Laksono had confirmed his attendance. 

"We hope they can participate in the event by sending us recorded peace messages if they are not able to attend in person," he said. 

Representatives from foreign embassies were also invited. 

The Echo of Peace event was inspired by a collective prayer session conducted by the then Australian prime minister John Howard held in 2005 for the victims of the 2002 and 2005 terrorist attacks on the resort island. 

Spiritualist Wayan Wisnaya said the event would likely add more charisma to Bali, an island that was already known as one of the world's sanctuaries of peace. 

Wisnaya said, "In the end, I hope all the good intentions, hopes and prayers that manifest through this event will attract more positive energy to not only Bali but also to the whole country so that we can live more peaceful lives."
