Post No. 781A – For Sunday evening’s meditation-clearing – Part 1 of 2



This week I have split the post into two, because of its length:
For everyone’s convenience, I’ve shifted the reminders / explanations about Sunday’s meditation-clearing to this post. I have a simplified blogiography of posts related to this work here, a list of themes I have identified here, and my changing the personality of oppressors post, which I am contemplating expanding to include some key people to work on, is here. (Also, see here for some investigation into evidence of the effectiveness of this type of work, which shows variability [and mentions causes] and cycles in the energetic/consciousness response … and also here is interesting.) A range of information on emotions is here, and suggestions on how to work with emotions is here.
The purpose of posting these news links is not only to inform: it is also to stimulate a connection to nonBPLF units that need to be cleared and BPLF units that need to be strengthened. That only works if you don’t let yourself be overwhelmed by this, so take it in small chunks if you need to, but remember to actively clear and heal! … including yourself.
Also, in the same way that activists used to argue that “the personal is political”, the energies we use and manifest in our daily lives contribute to the larger soup of energies that influence world events. If you want to, for example, improve the communication of nations, improve yours. To help stop abuses of power, be always ethical in your conduct. Want peace? Then work in an informed, understanding, intelligent and nuanced way for peace in yourself and your life.
Finally, remember that many others are doing this type of work – for instance, the Lucis Trust's Triangles network (which has been running for many decades),   the Correllian Tradition's 'Spiritual War for Peace' (begun in 2014, and the website was recently updated to include many more activities), the Hope, Peace, Love and Prosperity Spell (also from the Correllian Tradition, in around 2007 or 2008),   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   also see here and here, and even commercial organisations are getting involved (for instance, see here). No doubt there are many others. If you don't like what I am suggesting here, but want to be of service, there are many opportunities for you.
Now, the themes – short, medium and long term - that come to mind for my work this week, after I review all this news, are (and no apologies if this repeats the themes of any previous weeks – in fact, given the size of this task, that is to be expected):
(a)   based on my interpretation of information here and here with Saturn in Sagittarius contributing to finding an authentic balance (until 20th December, 2017), Uranus in Aries contributing to fresh and possibly radical starts (until some date in the Year 2018), and Pluto in Capricorn contributing to a transformation of power and business (and careers) (until some date in the Year 2024), conditions are ripe for a change for the better in world politics;
(b)   there is an enormous need to clear nonBPLF energy – the thought forms, unattached energy and scars of the collective unconscious created by millennia of violence. This need includes rescuing those who have been trapped by that history, and healing the warped views, seemingly “inherent” biases, and other damage done by the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual violence committed on scales large and small in that timeframe;
(c)   viewing the overall emotional state of the world from an elemental point of view, there seems to be some beneficial change happening in a few areas: more BPLF Water would help this;
(d)   there is a need for detachment and objectivity when assessing our lives, how we live, the world, and ideas and suggestions – it is a combination of “not speaking in anger” and “not signing contracts when drunk or on drugs”, and modern lifestyles and pressures can do this and more;
(e)   accountability for those who have political, social, legal or other power – people such as oligarchs, politicians, media and journalists, police, members of the judiciary, and community leaders  is crucial;
(f)   democracy must be genuine if it is to be anything but a sham – and things like justice and social equity, education, accessibility, information and freedom from intimidation / coercion / blackmail / fear are all part of that;
(g)   there times when BPLF forcefulness is needed: in all such circumstances, whether military exchanges between nations or disciplining a child, proportionality and appropriateness are required;
(h)   beware of the blindness of cultural ubiquity;
(i)   like fire to the physical, emotions to the soul make a good servant, and a bad master;
News and other matters from this week include the following (opportunities/good news are shown in green; comments are 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 [1] Leaders be kept BPLF safe, including keeping them undetectable to the nonBPLF and keeping all their Significant Others inviolable against being used for indirect  psychic attack, all as is for the Highest Spiritual Good;
  • with regard to democracy, freedom and governance:   some thoughts on how Yitzhak Rabin’s assassination killed the peace process, from someone who was there at the time and saw the Oslo Accords unravel (I didn’t know there had been joint Israeli-Palestinian patrols then), with some broader reflections on the way violence undermines democracy;  tax grabs by corporate interests in Australia and the USA are putting the economy at risk and calling into question the future of democracy, leading economist Ross Garnaut has said;   an appeal for common sense of the issue of tax and budget cuts – see also here;   the UN Secretary-General has said that he is alarmed by the ongoing escalation of violence in Burundi, where the discovery of the bodies of civilian victims, many apparently summarily executed, has become a regular occurrence - just today, the son of prominent Burundian human rights defender Pierre-Claver Mbonimpa was killed following his arrest by police in Bujumbura;   eleven people have been killed when rival political parties fired on each other as Pakistanis voted in local elections, which are being seen as a referendum on the national government, halfway through its term;   the UN Secretary-General has welcomed the publication of the final results of the presidential election in Côte d'Ivoire by the Constitutional Council on 2nd November 2015 and congratulated all involved as he said that this signified that Côte d'Ivoire is returning towards lasting peace and stability;   the UN Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (CAR) (MINUSCA) said that a tripartite agreement between Cameroon, CAR and UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has been signed in Yaoundé to facilitate voting in the upcoming elections by Central African refugees in Cameroon;   Human Rights Watch says Burma’s imminent election is fundamentally flawed - see also here and here;  the use of constitutional, rather than military, coup d’états in Africa;   millions of dollars in mining royalties that was meant to be spent for the benefit of the Groote Eylandt community has gone missing;   Liberal leader Justin Trudeau has named a young, diverse and gender-equal cabinet for the Canadian government;   a public servant’s critique of Freedom of Information laws is worth reading and considering;   a call for national legislation on multiculturalism in Australia;   a long overdue call for whistleblowers to receive compensation;   the notorious Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) has indeed included an attack on the sovereignty and independence of nations, as was feared;   developers and commercial interests are destroying public land;
  • with regard to Da’esh and violent extremism generally:   the parents of a Brisbane man fighting against Da’esh would rather he continue to risk his life overseas than return home to a possible jail term;   an assessment of the proxy war against Da’esh, which is looking promising in Iraq and eastern Syria despite an apparent policy by the USA of containment rather than defeat, the problems faced by the Iraqi army, and some military logistical/tactical and rules of engagement suggestions (the latter, in particular, merit considerable caution);   an opinion piece that responsibility for the rise of Da’esh lies with many people;   the number of reports of financial transactions in Australia suspected of being linked to terrorism has tripled, from 118 to 367, over the past year, a new report says; concerns about the United Kingdom’s planes to increase its surveillance powers;   Muslim activists have been alarmed by the USA’s FBI's game-style website about extremism for teachers and children;   Da’esh has claimed responsibility for an attack on a police checkpoint on the outskirts of Dhaka which left one police constable dead;
  • with regard to refugees:   Australia is now considering bundling refugees off to Kyrgyzstan, which has major human rights problems – including domestic violence;   a new report by the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) has spotlighted the urgent need to end child statelessness (one child is born stateless every ten minutes);   Northern Territory police have confirmed they are investigating allegations that up to five guards at a Darwin immigration detention centre bashed a man, putting him in hospital;   the European Union is predicting that three million more refugees could arrive by the end of next year;   the Greek island of Lesbos is running out of space to bury refugees who die;   more concerns over Australia’s management of refugees on Nauru;   Austria has proposed a bridge from Africa to Sicily (the image shows a construction too low to allow shipping, so it would have to be changed) and 1,000 rescue platforms (at least 1 has already been installed) in the Mediterranean Sea;
  • with regard to human rights and discrimination (including associated violence / crime):   a school class about fighting sexism may be extended to include boys;   an ally, in local government, for the fight for marriage equality;   abuse of the mentally ill;   women’s rights are consistently being overlooked in Palestine;   it is more taboo to be a domestic violence victim than to have Aids, according to the New South Wales minister for the issue;   a call for Papua New Guinea to prosecute domestic violence;   Russia is considering more anti-LGBT legislation;   the new Australian Minister for Social Services has taken a cheap and inaccurate shot at those on the disability support pension;   an interesting variation on a previously used tactic (reclaiming / claiming independence) by an indigenous activist;   the ways that superannuation is sexist, and some suggested solutions;   a majority of members of the Northern Ireland Assembly voted on Monday to legalise same-sex marriage, but the majority Democratic Unionist Party immediately invoked a parliamentary manoeuvre to veto the measure;   the Down syndrome strapper for the winner of the Melbourne Cup;   despite efforts by both the Armenian government and international organisations to improve the conditions and rights of people with disabilities, social attitudes there remain a major obstacle to employment access;   more transphobic stupidity from the USA;   Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani teenage rights activist who last year won the Nobel Peace Prize, has said that she changed her mind about not calling herself a feminist after Emma Watson’s speech to world leaders at the UN;   homophobic abuse by police in Hawaii;

The police desperately need to improve their act;   an article about elderly victims of crime attributing their problems to the latest drug problem misses, in my view, the point: such problems have occurred for decades at least, and we, as a society, are failing to care for our elderly properly;   a grossly bungled importation of guns;   a common sense opinion piece on a criminal’s father, who attempted to blame his son’s wife, rather than acknowledging his son’s violence;   the Obama era may well mark a turning point in the ways the US federal government approaches crime and policing, some scholars say, particularly with regard to the intertwined issue of race;   Guinea-Bissau is reported to be a significant hub for drug smuggling to Europe, with the military allegedly involved;   millions of dollars in mining royalties that was meant to be spent for the benefit of the Groote Eylandt community has gone missing;   an AFL fan who committed an appalling assault has pled guilty, and will be sentenced later this month – he already has a lifetime ban from football matches;   1,000 US police have lost their badges for a range of appalling sexual assaults, all of which involved abuse of power leaving massive personal and community damage (why have they not all been jailed, like other criminals?), as one of Victoria’s top sexual assault police says he is “amazed” that people question the behaviour of sexual assault victims rather than the criminals who commit the vile acts;   police have launched a new firearms investigation unit and announced a national amnesty on illegal guns next year as concerns grow over the alarming surge in shootings in Victoria, with most of the weapons coming from a "grey market" of firearms that were legal before the 1996 national buyback but not surrendered;   West Australia’s corruption watchdog has exposed "malaise and systemic weakness" in the WA Police force in a bashing death case;   the ACT government has expressed serious concerns about a new facial recognition database that would give "unprecedented and extraordinary" powers to police;   one of Italy's biggest organised crime trials in years has started in Rome, where councillors and gangsters allegedly stole millions of euros of public cash;

  • with regard to overcrowding and “modern” lifestyle issues:   the reason older people stay in houses is so they can have a garden – which is the element desperately missing from the viewpoint of those advocating flats and apartments, who seem completely unaware of the health benefits of contact with nature;  a “third world” response to housing problems in Melbourne?;   the "increasingly unmanageable" threat of climate change on children's health has prompted an open letter from doctors calling for the Australian Federal Health Minister to attend the United Nations Paris climate summit;   an opinion piece on economic problems;   the benefits of what are termed self-organising socio-technical (SOST) systems (apologies for using a LinkedIn URL);   some thorny ethical issues around programming autonomous vehicles – and see also here;  the now “doing the evil thing” (see here, here and here) Google has been found responsible for linking to defamatory websites;   problems with modern parenting – which I can vouch for, having seen such happening;   while current policies will limit greenhouse gas emissions by the year 2030, a new climate agreement in Paris can encourage further action to limit global temperature rise to no more than 2 degrees by the end of this century, according to a new report by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP);   an article advocating for the ancient form of Stoicism;   a critique of neoliberalism;
  • with regard to the conflict in Afghanistan (noting that Afghanistan was once a peaceful and modern society, even allowing women in miniskirts, before the Russian invasion – see here):   Taliban militants have stoned a woman to death over charges of adultery;   Dutch police have arrested a former Afghan communist army commander allegedly involved in a massacre of more than 1,000 men and boys in Afghanistan 36 years ago;   an assessment that the USA’s President Obama’s recent commitment to “continue to support President Ashraf Ghani and the national unity government as they pursue critical reforms” will ultimately determine whether the U.S. troop commitment to Afghanistan has any value;   Medecin Sans Frontieres have released further details of the terrible attack on their hospital in Kunduz last month;
  • with regard to China:   an Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) meeting in Malaysia has failed to agree on a joint communique, following disagreement between China and other nations over the South China Sea;   an assessment that war between the USA and China would hurt China more than the USA economically (although that cannot necessarily be said for my nation, Australia) – which also points out that the common sense and historical truism fact that economic (and social/cultural) interdependence has never stopped war;   US Navy “freedom of navigation” exercises will be held regularly;   the Chinese military has held a series of exercises in the South China Sea;
  • with regard to the conflict in Iraq (noting that Iraq was once a peaceful and prosperous society, before the USA / CIA backed revolution – see here):   abuse of protestors in Iraq;   according to casualty figures released by the UN Assistance Mission in Iraq (UNAMI), 714 Iraqis were killed and another 1,269 were wounded in acts of terrorism, violence and armed conflict in October, 2015;  heavy rain in Iraq has halted operations to retake the city of Ramadi from Da’esh for the second time in a week;   the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) says that urgent relief efforts are underway in Iraq to shield communities and families from the effect of a cholera outbreak that has already infected more than 2,200 people across the country;

    (see also Syria, as many reports related to Russia are there)
  • with regard to the conflict in Syria:   Iran has called for elections to be held to end the Syrian civil war as international talks end in stalemate;   Syria’s Foreign Minister has rejected a “transition period”, claiming that Assad is the legitimate President;   an assessment of Iran’s new role as “would be peacemaker”;   the experiences of a surgeon working in Syria over recent years, who could see the signs of the tragedy worsening as the West failed to take action (warning note: includes disturbing description of experience of children);   the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported that at least 123,842 people have been displaced in Syria’s Aleppo, Hama and Idleb governorates between 5th and 30th October;   men and women, both civilians and soldiers, are being held in cages as human shields in an attempt to deter government air attacks;   Russia has claimed that opposition forces have provided targets;   Russian and US planes have tested safety protocols;   an assessment of the political signals US President Obama’s decision to send 50 special forces troops could result in, and an assessment of their potential military impact;   the UN Special Envoy for Syria has met the Russian Foreign Minister and other officials to follow up the recent international conference;   a series of IWPR documentaries to be screened in London will tell the individual stories of a diverse group of strong, resilient women in northern Syria;   Iran has recruited thousands of Afghan refugees to fight in Syria;   Syria's government has been accused of profiting from enforced disappearances, people paying huge sums to find relatives who have been detained or abducted – see also here;   experts have concluded that Da’esh has used mustard gas;   Russia has increased its military commitment to include artillery and attack helicopters, as US-backed forces make gains;
  • with regard to the conflict in eastern Ukraine:   the UN Emergency Relief Coordinator, Stephen O'Brien, has arrived in Ukraine’s capital Kyiv for a three-day mission, and began by discussing with Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk how to get aid to those in need;   the problems of daily life in eastern Ukraine;
  • with regard to the war in Yemen:   the World Food Programme (WFP) says that Yemen’s fragile food security is deteriorating quickly, with nearly half its governorates at ‘Emergency’ level – one step below famine. Humanitarian organizations need to be able to move freely and safely to provide assistance to reach all those in urgent need before they fall deeper into crisis;   Cyclone Chapala has caused “enormous” damage in a region dominate by Al-Qaeda, including displacing 44,000 people, killing eight, and widespread flooding and damage to property and crops, while a new – less severe cyclonic storm called Megh has developed in the Arabian Sea and is expected to make landfall on Yemen this Sunday;   divergences in priorities are hampering the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen;
  • with regard to natural and other catastrophes:   a volcano in Indonesia is disrupting air flights. The eruption is smaller than the 1994 one, which cost a lot of lives, but no information on the disruption/damage caused to people, animals and environment nearby;   a factory collapse in Pakistan has killed at least 18, injured 75 and left around 100 trapped;   at least 15 people have been killed by the failure of a mine’s dam in Brazil;

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").
[3] I apologise for the formatting: it seems Blogger is no longer as WYSIWYG as it used to be, and there are a lot of unwanted changes to layout made upon publishing, so I often have to edit it immediately after publishing to get the format as close to what I want as possible.

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 for a few minutes at some time between 8 and 11 PM on Sunday, wherever you are, to meditate-clear 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.

The real dividing line is not between Christianity and Islam, Sunni and Shia, East and West. It is between people who believe in coexistence, and those who don’t.

  • If your “gut” (your instinct/intuition) is telling you something is wrong, but logic and the available evidence is saying otherwise, the proper conclusion to draw is that you need better, more personally credible evidence. Your “gut” could be wrong, right, or missing the nuances / “shades of grey” . So could the available evidence.
  • All of the above - and this blog - could be wrong, or subject to context, perspective, or state of spiritual evolution ...
