Post No. 627 - For Tomorrow Night's Meditation

As a reminder, I started this meditation regime based on the idea of generating the energy of peace, as set out in the channelled teachings of “The Nine” in Phyllis V. Schlemmer's "The Only Planet of Choice" (see p. 279 - well, in my copy at least :) ), which was the follow up to the brilliant "Briefing for the Landing on Planet Earth" by Stuart Holroyd. “The Nine” proposed getting twelve (or a minimum of three) people to meditate for eighteen minutes (or a minimum of nine minutes) at 9 PM Sunday in Jerusalem, which is based on using the Magickal Principle of Harmony (of time), from the Watery Magickal Law of Frequency, and the Magickal Principle of Effect, from the Earthy Magickal Law of Strength and Common Sense. In other words, get everyone working together, at the same time, and as many people as possible, for as much impact as possible. Now, that is valid, but getting people to work at the same time across the world is an incredibly difficult proposition – and, in my experience (including for multinational companies in my day job) leads to fewer people taking part. That experience also includes my time at the Correllian Shrine of the Crystal Web, where one member (not me) pointed out that having people perform work at the same hour by their local time can build up a wave of energy going around the entire planet, which is the Magickal Principle of Dynamism from the Fiery Magickal Law of the Taijitu. That worked well there, and so I have adopted it for these meditations. I also am happy for every person who wants to contribute to do so, rather than waiting until there is a group of a minimum size, which relies on harmony of focus being a way of overcoming physical separation (which is the Magickal Principle of Magickal Distance, from the Airy Magickal Law of Distance). I also include the use of clearing, so there is more than one difference to the original proposal. However, the more people who join in, the better. I would also like to point out that other people have been working on the use of coordinated, group meditation for beneficial effect, including the Lucis Trust's Triangles network (which has been running for many decades, since before World War Part Two, I think), the Correllian Tradition's 'Spiritual War for Peace' (begun in 2014), the Healing Minute started by the late, great Harry Edwards (held at 10Am and 10PM local time each day, and one can pay to be officially registered. This also has been running for decades); and a Druid ritual for peace, to be performed at each Full Moon (begun in 2014, I think).

As I was busy with family and other matters last week (I loathe this time of year, I have to say – it is full of expectations, pressures, major deadlines – and it really is associated with stress and, too often, arguments, violence and stupidity [ particularly on the road] ), this post will be longer than usual. My apologies.

Now, as a first point, I came across an article which compared an apparent campaign by Da’ish (aka ISIL) to assassinate those who could potentially be effective leaders of those opposing Da’ish to a similar campaign by the Viet Cong in the late 1950s (150 in 1957, according to this), before they started fighting more openly. In the case of Da’ish, apparently at least something like 1,345 potential leaders were killed over a couple of years...

Now, one of the reasons I started doing this work was because I know how a key word or two at the right time can be powerful – and that has been reinforced by some of the reading/researching I’m doing on the Cuban missile crisis and the July, 1914 Crisis. However, one aspect I haven’t thought about of late (although it was part of the psychic work I was a small cog in during the 1980s) is that of losing BPLF leaders or potential BPLF leaders. I should have, though, because I’ve noticed how some significant People of the Light I know have been overwhelmed by life events in the last couple of years.

From a tactical point of view it is easier to concentrate your forces against a smaller number of opponents, so this makes sense from a tactical point of view: rather than fight an army, just knock out the leaders, and you only have a disorganised mob against you. Of course, this gets used by all sides of conflicts – in Vietnam, the Americans and Australians also tried a leadership assassination programme (the infamous photograph and film of a Viet Cong being killed was not part of this: that was someone reacting to the killing [and possibly mutilation] of children and killing the person, who may not have actually been protected by the rules of combat – see here). In terms of working for the Light, however, the means shapes the ends, so you can NOT try anything to deliberately harm others without immediately and automatically shooting yourself in the foot – whether you realise it at the time, later, or not at all.

You can, however, clear nonBPLF units and send love very strongly and intensely (think of a ball of light as intense as the Sun, for instance, which is in some of the Dresden Files stories, I recall) if it is for the Highest Spiritual Good (you need good communication with your BPLF Guides or your Higher Self – the latter often requires good meditation, real meditation, not relaxation - to assess that).

This is a point I often think of these days when I hear debates about how to respond to psychic attack that are along the line reflect the negative energy harmlessly away vs. send it back to the source to ‘teach them a lesson’ – i.e., there is a third option, which is to aggressively send love and light. (Incidentally, a standard part of my Opening Prayer for EVERY session is to ask for whatever I do to others to be immediately done to me so I know no harm is being done: so, if I send hate under a gloss of pretty light, I get the same back – it is a really good way to give oneself a kick up the backside. It also shows how anger can be channelled constructively.)

Incidentally, on a slightly broader perspective, I feel that modern life in industrialised nations is deliberately keeping us living so frenetically so that we cannot stop to think …

Going back to losing BPLF leaders, potential or actual, I am going to start giving deliberate emphasis to protecting such people and their Path to Serving the Light.

Ironically, some of the reading I’m doing at the moment is also emphasising the limitations that exist on leaders, and what they can do in terms of getting those they lead to be better than they think they can be – which makes me appreciate Nelson Mandela, Gandhi and Dr Martin Luther King Jr. even more.

Matters from this week include the following (opportunities are shown in green; good news is shown in purple; WARNING: some of these links may contain triggers around issues such as violence, sexual assault, discrimination, etc):

• permanent issue: may all actual and potential BPLF Leaders be kept safe against any/all attempts to divert them away from effectively fulfilling their role of Service to Life by being effective BPLF Leader(s), including keeping them undetectable to the nonBPLF and keeping all their Significant Others inviolable against being used for indirect psychic attack (including also being kept undetectable to the nonBPLF), all as is for the Highest Spiritual Good;
• regarding the siege in Sydney this week: http://www.theage.com.au/comment/sydney-gunman-man-haron-monis-a-real-sheikh-only-to-himself-20141216-128h9x.html, http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-12-15/illridewithyou-hashtag-takes-off-following-siege/5969102 and http://theage.com.au/lifestyle/celebrity/russell-brand-blasts-media-and-tony-abbott-for-linking-sydney-siege-to-terrorism-20141217-1293lr.html;
• in terms of more serious (damaging) and truly terrorist acts, there is this: http://www.theage.com.au/world/dozens-of-students-killed-in-pakistani-taliban-attack-on-peshawar-school-20141216-128jxa.html;
• from Starhawk (found via The Wild Hunt): http://starhawk.org/we-have-two-great-crises/;
• http://paganinparadise.blogspot.com.au/2014/12/a-firefighter-speaks-to-police.html;
• none of this is a surprise – especially the fact that the techniques didn’t work!: http://www.theage.com.au/world/enhanced-interrogation-torture-techniques-by-cia-were-far-more-brutal-and-ineffective-in-stopping-terrorist-plots-us-senate-report-20141209-123pyc.html,   http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-12-10/beard-cheney-defends-torture/5957372, and http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-12-10/senate-report-questions-results-of-hambali-interrogation/5957358, which shows specifically the point that someone being tortured will say or do anything to get it to stop (there is a report here on previous failures to learn in relation to the British approach to the IRA);
• a comment on the increased abuse of asylum seekers in my nation, by someone with a flawed reputation/legacy, but who did take constructive action to help such people in the 70s: http://www.theage.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/malcolm-fraser-savages-scott-morrisons-new-asylum-seeker-laws-and-senators-who-passed-them-20141210-124bp1.html;
• responses to Ferguson in the Pagan community have been summarised here: http://wildhunt.org/2014/12/blacklivesmatter-reaction-and-response.html. Keep in mind the importance of fighting to change, not punish (which can, in my personal experience, leave a massive need for healing), and making sure one’s message is going to reach your target audience in a way that will change them for the better – which doesn’t necessarily mean expressing it in a way that is comfortable for them – e.g., from http://krasskova.wordpress.com/2014/12/04/on-ferguson/: “When I teach ancestor work to those of Northern European, mostly white, backgrounds, I point out that there are two major ancestral wounds that *must* be addressed. The first is the destruction of our traditions by monotheism, but the second is that eventually some of our ancestors drank that poison, came across the ocean, and became the destroyer of nations. As our traditions were destroyed, our people put to the sword, our children mentally enslaved, we brought those things to others: genocide, torture, and slavery. For us, most especially, there is an ancestral obligation to take a stand against racism when and where we see it — and trust me, one doesn’t have to look very hard. This is very much our fight. We don’t get a pass because we may not be directly impacted.”;. This post has a famous and appropriate poem by John Donne, and another quote from the great Dr Martin Luther King Jr. which I have added to my signature block: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/panmankey/2014/12/no-man-is-an-island/: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere”;
• the protests that led up to the military coup in Thailand were not about democracy: they were about going away from democracy to monarchy. This article, in my view, is about some of the direct consequences of that regressive movement: http://www.theage.com.au/world/bangkok-tourists-caught-up-in-shakedown-20141212-125voa.html;
• I’m currently working my way through the scripts of the tapes President Kennedy made during the Cuban missile crisis (I’ve lost the link for where I got these from a few years ago, but something very similar is available at http://microsites.jfklibrary.org/cmc/, and other interesting information here and here, for instance). It’s an interesting experience, with the option of a blockade having been raised right at the start, I’ve found, and a few other points I’m contemplating and may right about at some stage. Being engaged in this, which included comments by President Kennedy acknowledging that the rest of the world thought the USA was obsessive about Cuba, the following article struck me as particularly momentous: http://www.theage.com.au/world/uscuba-diplomatic-breakthrough-obama-and-castro-agree-to-thaw-relations-after-prisoner-exchange-20141217-129fcs.html;
• I’m also doing some more research into the East China Sea tensions (see here, here [which reminds me a bit of the measures the Russians and the US had to develop, such as the so-called ‘hot line’, in response to a range of issues include disputes in relation to the isolated enclave of Berlin], here, and here, on US policies in the nearby South China Sea): clearing negative units from everyone connected to this and sending BPLF energy remains a valid response, but I may post more on this – particularly after I finish my reading about the Cuban missile and July 1914 crises;
• the IWPR is fostering a series of open debates in Afghanistan to allow people to talk about the prospects for - and obstacles to – peace as part of a broader campaign for peace in that nation by conflict resolution and the engagement of civil society, and has reported on concerns around Armenia joining the Moscow-led Eurasian Economic Union (particularly, concerns that this be a political union), and Azerbaijan’s suppression of journalism;
• some hints of good news for Rohingyas;
• the International Crisis Group has reported on the tensions being shown in Tunisia by elections and the resultant need for actions such as “As a prelude to a charter of political accountability guaranteeing, among other issues, the preservation of democratic gains and a joint effort for greater balance between regions, the defeated candidate should, for example, address an open letter expressing his fears (and those of the electorate) to the winner, who would commit to respond publicly”, the dangers of winter in Eastern Ukraine to the conflict there, the loss of “unity of vision and action that materialised in the February 2013 signing of the Peace, Security and Cooperation Framework (PSCF) agreement” in the Democratic Republic of Congo and the resultant need for “UN Security Council (UNSC) convening a high-level meeting of DRC government, other key regional players and international actors to develop a shared and comprehensive strategy to deal with the armed groups still operating in eastern DRC” to change the situation there and restore the hope that arose when the M23 armed group was defeated in November 2013 (see here), the challenges of organising an election in Guinea including the need for the government to “work with the opposition and international partners to build minimum consensus on electoral arrangements in order to reduce the risk of violent protests in the lead up to, during or after the vote” (this has been complicated by, amongst other factors, the Ebola crisis; see here), the conflict in rural areas of the Central African Republic between pastoralist and farming communities (which brings to mind the squatters here in Australia in the 1800s, and the enclosures in the UK from the 1600s to the early 1900s; see here), the challenges of transitioning to peace in Columbia, the problems of the Iran nuclear talks, and the risks and opportunities of Sri Lanka’s forthcoming Presidential Election;
• Human Rights Watch has argued that indiscriminate rocket attacks in Eastern Ukraine should stop, there should be progress on observance of human rights in Cuba now, and that Hollywood should take a stand on human rights in North Korea, and has reported on the abuse of LGBT people in Russia (my view is that Russia’s policy is directly responsible for killing children, those children who happen to be LGBT), the failure of Thai authorities to address water pollution that happens to be harming Karen people, and the need to end injustice in South Sudan by effectively prosecuting those responsible for crimes there;
• I’m doing some careful, objective critiquing and meditation on this USA-focused article, about the flaws and shortcomings of the USA’s action in Iraq and how they contributed to the rise of ISIL, and this article how the failure of the interdependence strategy (that was so successful post-World War Part Two with Germany and Japan) with Russia over the last quarter century means a new strategy is necessary – but is unlikely to have significant benefits for at least another quarter century, Putin’s purge of independent media, Turkey’s possible move away from the boundaries imposed after World War Part One and how this may be leading to a so-called ‘buffer zone’ inside Syria in the Turkish view (I also note that Erdogan has been showing signs of being an idiot – see here, here, here, here, and here);
• the UN political chief has highlighted the need for law enforcement and good governance to fight terrorism, and the UN has discussed tensions in southern Lebanon with the Lebanese Government and called for urgent action to protect Vietnamese Montagnards in Cambodia.

I’ve also found a new source of information for this post: http://www.wrongingrights.com/, which is somewhat quirky in its humour (enjoyably so, to me, but may not to be everyone’s liking), but seems to have reasonable information, thus far.

 

[1] BPLF = Balanced Positive (spiritual) Light Forces. See here and here for more on this.

[2] Please see here and my post "The Death of Wikipedia" for the reasons I now recommend caution when using Wikipedia. I'm also exploring use of h2g2, although that doesn't appear to be as extensive (h2g2 is intended - rather engagingly - to be the Earth edition of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy").

My "blogiography" (list of all posts and guide as to how to best use this site) is here, and my glossary/index is here.

I started this blog to cover karmic regression-rescue (see here and here), and it grew ... See here for my group mind project, here and here for my "Pagans for Peace" project (and join me at 9 PM on Sunday, wherever you are, to meditate for peace), and here for my bindrune kit-bag. I also strongly recommend learning how to flame, ground and shield, do alternate nostril breathing, work with colour, and see also here and be flexible. 

I am a Walker upon the Path of Balanced Positivity, seeking Spiritual Maturity.

• neither eloquence nor inarticulateness inherently indicates correctness, but, as words can kill, the right to freedom of speech comes with a DUTY to be as well-informed, objective and balanced as you can be.
• Gnwmythr's Stropping Strap: Occam's Razor only works if  the simplest solution is actually recognised as being the simplest, rather than the one that best fits one's bigotries being labelled 'simplest'.
• Our entire life experience, with all the many wondrous and varied people, places and events in it, is too small a sample for statistical reliability about Life.
• May the world of commerce and business be recognised to be a servant, not a master, of the lives of people.
• Being accustomed to interacting via certain rules makes those rules neither right nor universal.
• Like fire to the physical, emotions to the soul make a good servant, and a bad master.
• The means shape the end.
• My favourite action movie of all time is "Gandhi", although I've recently come across "Invictus" and might put that one in to that category. However, I loathe the stereotypical action movie - and, for similar reasons, I loathe many dramas, which are often emotionally violent, more so in some cases than many war films.
• All of the above - and this blog - could be wrong, or subject to context, perspective, or state of spiritual evolution ...

Human dignity is the inherently cumulative holistic combination of human rights, wellbeing and potential, and all actions or interaction which promote, realise or facilitate same. The converse also applies: whatever degrades, diminishes or robs humans of dignity, is inherently undignified.

The “purpose” of spiritual evolution is not the attainment of “spiritual perfection” - not in the sense of not having to evolve further, at any rate, since there is no such thing. We need to evolve in order to grow - but we can take rest breaks (hopefully well earned :) ) along the way. No, the “purpose” of evolution is, rather, to perfect our ability to learn, and thus grow.

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Females, get over 'cute'. Get competent. Get trained. Get capable. Get over 'cute'. And those of you who are called Patty and Debby and Suzy, get over that. Because we use those names to infantalise females – we keep females in their 'little girl' state by the names we use for them. Get over it. If you want to be taken seriously, get serious.

There are risks and costs to a program of action. But they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.
