Naivety Is a Form of Selfishness When We Harden Ourselves Against the Pain of Others

This message comes from the Swiss Mountains, where the air is pure and the sunshine warms the body after so much bruising from all around the world.

The news of the spiritual changes all around the world is causing much negativity, which is bruising the minds and bodies of all sensitive people.

Nothing is easily won in this world and all good things come at a price, but the changes are helped by the energies, which are released from a Higher Source to guide our endeavours.

All reasonable people, who strive for change for the Greater Good, need to make great sacrifices for their Fellow Man.  All are given the opportunities to play their part, but not everyone takes them.

Many souls are so inward looking for their own needs that they screen the needs of others, who are outside their own immediate circle of family and friends.

This naivety is a form of selfishness when they harden themselves against the pain of others and stand aside convincing themselves that it is no business of theirs.

This could not be further from the truth, as we are all here to help each other and to ease the path of pain that we all have to go through in order to learn what life is truly all about.

No one is exempt from this, but it is harder for the wealthy than the poor, because the well-off have more responsibilities on their shoulders, as more is asked of them.

We all come with gifts in place and it is our duty to honour them.  These may be gifts of spiritual destinies, such as healing or wisdom in matters enlightenment.

We all have choices in life and we are all equipped with a conscience, which teaches us the meaning of what is right and what is not.  We have no excuses if we choose not to listen.

As with the Law of the Land ignorance is no excuse and those who turn away from righteousness will find to their cost that it applies to Spiritual and Universal Law.

We must all take our part and heed the opportunities that are brought to us to play our parts in the overall plan for our lives and the lives of others.

We must be aware of the global eruptions, as the corruption and greed is brought down and the negativity is replaced by the light of goodness, which has been abused for far too long.

As with other things, it is the real time for the good to fight back and not to hide in a Darkness of Ignorance, which must and will be extinguished and the mind-sets change so that lightness and love become the norm.

It is no longer what you have that matters, but what you can do with it for others.  No longer can the reign of corruption and greed rule the world.

We Should All Know That We Are Doing The Right and Proper Thing - July 2012


          As the year turns into its second half and the night length changes leaving a longer or a shorter day, depending whether you are in the northern or southern hemisphere, so the expectations change as to what is ahead of us.

          The world, viewed as a whole, is in crisis as few can relax and have no concerns as to what lies ahead.  To be complacent is dangerous as nothing stays for ever.

          Whether it is the banking crisis and an increasing level of black debt tilting the economic futures of whole continents towards an edge of great uncertainty or the natural disasters that are occurring all around the world that is causing you concern, you are right to be concerned.

          Until Mankind as a whole turns towards the light of enlightenment and away from the darkness of indifference, nothing can change and stop this slippery slope of destruction that is eating up the world.

          It is not by chance that it is all happening now.  It is a continuation of the furtherance of greed that has driven Mankind to the very edge of destruction.

          Many warnings have been given and many have gone unheeded, as the continued abuse of the world’s resources have been gobbled up and used, but they are not renewable – they are finite.

          When all the oil is used up, what will Mankind do?  He expects to use another renewable source of power, but energy consumptions are increasing each and every day all around the world and the appetite is insatiable.

          Banks have been almost as insatiable for profits that they have cheated and lied themselves into a false sense of security, as they gambled with other people’s money and charged them through the nose for the privilege.

          The Eurozone is all but bankrupt, as Germany is called to patch up the countries whose Parliaments have failed to balance their books and allowed their banks to almost fail through the burdens of black debt that they took on so willingly in better times.

          The Middle East is a war zone with Syria, as well as the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and Africa is almost awash with blood.  The women and children always suffer most as the men play at politics of fear and hatred.

          America is swept with fire, storms and heat waves as natural disasters cloud the largest economy in the world and their debts increase, as the wars they waged have still to be paid for.

          There is unrest in Russia and China, as the people are starting to stand up for their rights and many countries are struggling to understand what real democracy is, as people are behaving badly all over this world.

          What can we do about this?  Are we right to fear the future?  What can we do to look after our families and friends, as living standards fall and we are not as safe as we thought we were?

          The answer is simple and not beyond our abilities as all are given a conscience and there is goodness in every heart.  We must all be patient and wake up to the constraints that are all around us.

          There is a Greater Universal Intelligence, who is aware of our thoughts and struggles.  If we are fully alive to the goodness and the purity of living and ask in the right way for our families and the greater good, rather than for ourselves, then we will see the worm turn for us and for others.

          It does no good to shrug our shoulders and feel the constraints of religion, which only addresses the outer us, when we can ourselves find our own salvation within us and be guided by that still voice of calm and to trust it.

          We are not alone and there are many who can help us if only we help others too.  It is no use allowing the abuse of the innocent children, when we know what is wrong and condone it by turning away.

          Goodness may be an old fashioned word, but it is pure and does nobody any harm, while the other side of the coin of life does and all people everywhere must decide on which side they wish to be counted.

          Then we must all stand up for what we believe in and where it hurts nobody, but does some good, then we should all know that we are doing the right and proper thing.

We Need Good Results for the Greater Good and Not the Smaller Selfish Few - June 2012


This is very much a time when we all need some of that fighting spirit that took our forefathers through the Second World War.

Times are hard now, as they were then, because the financial greed of the banks and the politicians has led to a global crisis that was totally avoidable.

It is the people, who have to pick up the tab for the mistakes and mismanagement of their leaders.  It is you and I, who have to pay in the long run.

All those years ago in the previous century, the prime male population was all but wiped out through the pig-headed ambitions of the few men at the top of their countries ambitions – that is their ambitions, not the peoples.

Then, as now, it is the man in the street, who suffers for the conflict and greed that has spread around the world like an evil cancer devouring the positive attitudes of love and harmony.

It is only by each and every person in their communities taking their own responsibilities and standing up against oppression and wrongdoing that the leaders can be forced to act responsibly.

Many people, in many countries, are fighting and risking their lives to have a say in the running of their everyday lives, which by any yardstick is called freedom.

Every person who has a vote should use it and take responsibility for the good of the country and not just what might be best for them.  It is the greater good that must survive and individuals should work for that and not just for themselves.

It is the insatiable greed of the banking industry to work for their own best interests, as opposed to the best interests of their customers and shareholders, which has brought about this present downfall in the world economy.

They have made many mistakes and have mismanaged their businesses and expect to be held up by the man in the street through bailouts of tax payers’ money.

Does the little man in his business get lifesaving bailouts from his Government when his business falls on hard times?

Does the hand out of cash loans from the banks, now saved by Governments, mean that they are gratefully lending to entrepreneurs to start their own businesses to employ the young people, who are so desperate for a start in life after they leave their schools and universities?

We must all look to the light of inspiration and see the hand of the Universal Forces, which are at work to help us all, as long as we really believe in the justice of the greater good above our own personal issues and wants.

Let the world know that those who struggle in it are not alone and that mighty forces do prevail and that we must do our bit and not shy away from our responsibilities to the greater good of all Mankind.

It is so easy to turn the other cheek away from doing our bit and letting someone else do it all.  Can we sleep well at night knowing we have failed to help another?

Let us all pull together and help each other to a better world, where justice and harmony rein together and wars and rumours of wars are evaporated into the mists of common sense, so that the needs of all, who suffer and are oppressed, can be truly addressed.

Let harmony prevail and through trade and trust, an understanding and a learning curve of tolerance and truth, can lead to a better world, so that we can all survive and the mistakes of the leaders are reduced through transparency of actions to good results for the greater good and not the smaller selfish few.

Why Didn’t Our Parents Do Something About It? May 2012


The way that the world is shaping up you would think that the holocaust has arrived and is beating on everybody’s door.  Around the world there is oppression and the fighting for human rights in almost all of the almost two hundred recognised countries.

Nobody is contented anymore and there are restrictions on human liberties almost everywhere you look.  These can be dictatorial, as in the Arab Spring uprisings as well as in Russia and in China, financial as in Europe and North America or religious as in Catholicism and in Jewish and Muslim interpretations of their Law.

Surely it has come to a terrible state of affairs when there is no tolerance to another’s view point.  Religion is far too heavy handed in laying down the Law on what others should be doing and finding it very hard to follow their own example.

What matters is that all human beings have equal rights to a life under the Law of Humanity, the Universal Law of Existence, and it matters not what colour, creed or educational background that you belong to as all are the same when in a state of pain and suffering.

Nobody has any right to abuse the sacredness of life itself.  There are three type of life here on this earth and they are humanity, fauna and flora.

Humanity had been given a greater degree of intelligence and understanding, but instead of using it with compassion and tolerance, the mind-set is too full of a desire for personal greed to have more than is needed, no matter where it comes from or how many people suffer because of it.

The fauna and flora are prime examples of this as the elephant is shot for the ivory of their two front teeth, Rhinos are killed for the unproven medical qualities of its defensive horn and Whales are still hunted and fish stocks are over fished.  The great Rainforests in South America and Africa are being destroyed and the icecaps are melting.

Still Mankind continues on his way, destroying the valuable assets here on this planet and increasing the population until there will be nothing but concrete and high-rise buildings, as the mental pressure increases on the minds of all people and the little children are bemused or abused by an uncaring world.

Until individual people start taking responsibility instead of leaving it to others, there can be no peace, no change and no sanctity of life and existence.

Bloodshed and suffering is too frequently all about us in this modern word and the 21st Century, billed as the Age of Aquarius – an opportunity for new beginnings and a new Spiritual Age – is likely to result in a massive upheaval of negative ignorance, the worst that the world has ever seen.

The Man in the Street must start to stand up for his rights and the rights of others, whether they are human, animal or plant.  If the greed continues the whole fabric that holds this world together will continue to crumble and the predicted destruction of all benefits achieved will be flattened in the rush.

Kindness to individuals and a smiling countenance is a start.  Being aware of your neighbour and those who you pass by in the street is a start.  Friendliness first before aggression will help.

Until we all start to think and care about this world that we all live in and really make an effort to change our ways and build for the future instead of grabbing what we can for today, then there will be little left for our children and our grandchildren to enjoy and then you may hear them say, “Why didn’t our parents do something about it before it was too late…”

Are We Worthy of the Seeds that are Sown in our Names or Do We Just Stand by and Watch? April 2012

 
Today starts the Festival of Easter with Maundy Thursday, that traditional day of the giving of Alms to the poor.  This is so often symbolic, as the giving of Maundy coins by the Queen makes the coins too valuable to be given to the poor and needy to buy bread.  Instead we all need to look into our hearts at what is there to give to those who are needy.

In Greece, the people are driven by extreme measures that are not of their making, but are the making of politicians, who falsified the books to join the European Community and then spent the money on grandiose schemes as if there was no tomorrow.

With the falling of the Euro, the pain and the distress of the people around the European Community is surely too much to bear.  When a man of seventy-seven shoots himself in protest on the steps of Government leaving his suicide note for all to read, will the politicians realise that it is their fault or will they hide behind the usual excuse of I did nothing wrong?

Until the people in authority own up to their responsibilities and stop lining their own pockets and polishing their egos, the people there can make no progress until everything has fallen and must be raised again from the ashes.

In Syria, the despot Assad continues to blast his people with death and torture, turning its cities into ghost towns that will have to rise again after Assad and his butchers are dead and gone.  The people will rebuild them when sanity is restored and goodness will take its rightful place in this world.

Why are there always men and women throughout the ages, who insist that they are right and that they are mightier that the Laws of the Universe?

Why do the people not take personal responsibility in stopping these madmen from taking their power and abusing their own people?

We are all in wake-up mode as the democracies around the world are beginning to raise their heads at last, as the seeds sown are being nurtured by the mind-sets of those who are strong enough to stand against tyranny.

In Burma, a lady has fought her way against all the odds to bring herself and her democratic party to the fore and will prevail.  Aung San Suu Kyi is a lady of strength and wisdom who has, like Nelson Mandela, refused to be silenced and has won the day.

We all need to look within ourselves and to see what we can do.  The Queen Elizabeth II hands out her Maundy Money to the deserving and sets us an example.

Are we deserving of all that we have?  Do we give to those in need and help to justify the wrongs that are all around us or are we too busy enjoying what we have to bother about other people?

If we do not do what is needed, then how can we expect to be considered when we are in need of some support, which by Universal Law will come to try us according to our ability to pay the piper?

Never think that you are alone and untouchable.  We are all connected and dependant on each other, so together we will succeed and alone we are nothing worthy of any name at all.

Find a Better Standard of Being Today - March 2012

Today the world is looking more like a battle zone than a land of harmony and love.  This planet still holds areas of great beauty and from outer space it still appears as a globe of immense beauty and peace.

What has gone wrong under the surface of the outer atmospheres that protect us all?  Why have we all allowed ourselves to be bamboozled into a state where one faction is always against another?

The ego that was planted in the mind-sets of all individuals that make up Mankind has been allowed to grow apace into areas that produce greater levels of negativity.

These are emotions of fear and greed and a requirement to have control over others.

The positive emotions are mainly muted and they are love and compassion and a feeling and a need of being able to stand together in peace and harmony and share and help each other.

The old adage of “What do I get out of it?” so very often stops people in their tracks and turns them away from helping another simply because their help is needed, but they don’t get rewarded.

This is too much a society of rewards for favours and if you look around the world you can see it at work through the corruption that exists in so many societies from the top to the bottom.

Until Mankind realises that all people have rights and that the effects of actions that affect us must be contained, so that all benefit from situations and justice, is even handed for rich and poor of any colour or religious upbringing.

There is too much failure by those who have, to help those who do not have and this applies both on a scale of nations as well as individual people.

Like the flight of an arrow, if we change the trajectory by a small amount it will hit a different target and so if we were all able to change our thinking as individuals to a more positive and loving state of being, then the greater consciousness would also change and the affairs throughout the world would be in better shape.

We must all take responsibility for our lives and what we do with them to serve the greater good and to make a positive difference through our being here.

Otherwise what is the point of a life to be lived alone for one’s own ego and to be disappointed every time we fall from an artificial high to a lowering of ourselves in the eyes of all who see us?

It is never too late to be more positive in the search for a better standard of being, so why not start today?

See the Truth and Act upon It - February 2012

In times of change we must look to ourselves to see what we can do to facilitate change for the greater good.  We must see who we can help, as well as change our own thinking from one of self-interest to one of family, friends and acquaintances.

There is so much distress in the world at this time that one can be forgiven for keeping one’s head down and trying to believe that it is somebody elses job to clean up the mess.

But is this so?  We are all a part of the human race and we all take advantage of the good things that Mankind manages to get right, so we should also look to the other side of the coin and make an effort to do what we can to make sure that the not-so-good aspects of Man’s behaviour are discouraged.

If we decide to do nothing, then we are condoning these dreadful happenings that occupy our news headlines on a daily basis.  We all have our own responsibilities, but we also have a voice and we can let our feelings be known for the greater good of all people.

Communications have never been easier with social media being so easy to use and communications are today literally at our fingertips.  We all have opinions and we are not alone in many of them, so when likeminded people all over the world come together they can make a difference.

If we examine our consciences we all know what is right and what is wrong.  The difference between the good and the bad in life is that the good listen to their conscience while the bad do not.  We know this to be true.

However we must also look to the difference in the truth according to where we stand on various issues.  What is the difference for example between a terrorist and a freedom fighter?

Each one of us has had an experience seen from anothers point of view, which seriously disagreed with what we believed was the truth.  This is the important thing in life to stand back and see from other perspectives than our own.

We can do it with practice and a worthy heart – not for personal gain, but in truth to make the world a better place because we came and we responded to the realities of life and saw the truth and acted upon it.
