PEACE MAKING

PEACE MAKING
Let's build on the fascinating work we're doing in our Thursday Group and others like it and explore further how we can be a positive force for peace. When we link up around the world we form a grid of conscious life force energy linking in with the life energies of the Earth and the whole universe. Imagine that anyone can tap into and direct it for peace. Imagine if we could switch off any or all weapons, by focusing energy on their weakest points.
TOWARDS ENLIGHTENED WORLD LEADERS - SUPER-CONSCIOUS DEMOCRACY
Our human brains have evolved from mammal brains which have evolved from reptile brains. It's so easy to fall back into reptilian behaviour, you don't have to look very far to see that around the world, sadly often coming from the top down. How easily our fears, greed, vanity are manipulated so we act like zombies against one another. Imagine we can focus the understanding of our evolving super-human consciousness on the world's leaders and give them a vision of peaceful ways to solve problems. Earth's ability to support us all in any industrial, fossil-fueled way of life is fading fast and we must develop alternatives. If countries continue to fight for resources we will just go further and further towards mass extinction, we urgently need to find the peaceful way.
HO'OPONOPONO AND PEACE
"I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you"
I remember reading a story about a psychiatric doctor from Hawaii who was working with dangerous, violent inmates at an institute for the criminally insane. Slowly but surely they started to calm down, became less violent but the doctor just sat in his office most of the time. What was he doing?
He was simply taking responsibility for their troubles himself, studying the prisoners' notes one by one, and going through the process above with each of them, "I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you".
Let's each take responsibility for everything and everyone, everywhere.
 JUST US
At the end of the day there's no "us and them" there's just us

ENFOLDEDNESS OF HEALING

(Link to blog this lovely photo came from)
You soon find when you're treating people with complementary therapies like CranioSacral Therapy or energy work that no part of the body really operates on its own. Digestive system, nervous system, heart and lungs, everything operates as part of a whole. The same with the different aspects of the energy body, chakras, meridians, channels, aura, a disturbance in one area will show up in all the others. And you surely can't separate your own personal health from the health of the Earth, the water you drink, air you breath and the food you eat, which is why Ruth and I are putting so much of our energy into the health of the gardens and orchard here on the farm, thinking globally and acting locally, learning to live simpler more Earth-friendly lives. To me, ecology, permaculture, forest gardening are all aspects of healing.
Then remote healing groups like our Thursday Group show just how enfolded we can all be if we allow it. I feel the group's energies around me just as if we were occupying the same space, enfolded with the life force energies of the Earth and the universe.

Life support - natural wealth is the fundamental wealth

The idea, much promoted by politicians, corporations and run-of-the-mill economists, that they are creating wealth is bollocks. They talk of wealth as a financial thing but there is nothing of any financial value that does not come primarily from natural wealth. The pursuit of financial wealth in the "developed" world is leading to a devestated Earth. Our most important work is to regenerate natural wealth wherever we are. We live our human lives within a network of other life and our health depends on the diversity, abundance and health of that network.
Ruth and I are lucky in finding ourselves in a situation where we have been able to start this change in attitude and way of life living here on the farm. I know it doesn't seem so easy to go against the established flow when you are locked into the system to find money to pay the everyday bills. All the same, if we don't change our attitude to wealth individually and collectively it will only get harder and harder to avoid the destruction of the Earth's ability to support much life of any kind. Does your daily work regenerate or use up natural wealth? Is there any way you can regenerate a bit of waste land, grow some food, sow some flowers for the bees, do some random act of kindness for a stranger? There's loads you find you can do when you get started.
