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).
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):
- the Ebola crisis continues to have major impacts:, but the progress towards a vaccination are encouraging. Then there are the other haemorrhagic fever viruses like Marburg … ;
- violence is escalating in Libya;
- the UNHCR is preparing for winter in Ukraine, where fighting has displaced half a million people, Syria, where winter will also cause a crisis, and the Central African Republic, where 850,000 people have been displaced;
- aid workers in Mali have been attacked;
- Typhoon Hagupit is approaching the Philippines;
- the UN has called for all disappearances in Mexico to be investigated, and reforms of the police were recently announced;
- there has been a terrorist attack in Grozny, attacks on civilians in Kenya and an army patrol in Lebanon, and nearly 12,000 people have been killed in C.E. 2014 in Iraq;
- there has been an agreement between the Iraqi Government and the Kurds in Kurdistan;
- government restrictions are causing problems for aid workers in Darfur, and UN convoy was attacked in Mogadishu;
- the UN has recommitted to support for Afghanistan, expressed concern over demolitions in the West Bank, called for protection of cultural zones in Iraq and Syria (which brings to mind the work of the British-initiated “Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives program”, which inspired the film “Monuments Men”), met with leaders of the opposing communities in Cyprus, marked 15 years in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and called for the abolition of all forms of slavery;
- reforms in Turkmenistan may be just “window dressing”;
- the military coup in Thailand has brought “calm, but not peace”, and prospects for peace are not good, according to an International Crisis Group report, who also report on the risk of violence in Nigeria’s schedule elections in a few months;
- Human Rights Watch has reported on possible approaches to policing problems in the USA, abuse of disabled women in India, the need for “Indonesia to send a message on women’s rights”, the trial of past torturers in Chad, and the abuse of Crimean people who oppose Russia’s invasion;
- plans are in hand to commemorate the centenary of the 1914 Christmas Truce on the Western Front of World War Part One.

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.
- neither eloquence nor inarticulateness inherently indicates correctness;
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
Jesus loves you. Odin wants you to grow up.

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.

True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it is not haphazard and superficial. It comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
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.
