Post No. 734 – For Sunday evening’s meditation-clearing



(As an aside, I find it ironic that these posts, which I view as little more than a retweeting service, seem to get the most hits when my main work – from my perspective – of doing psychic weather reports gets less attention. Ah well, the value is in the eyes of the audience, so … here ‘tis :) )

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.) 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.

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 Jupiter in Leo contributing to an expansion of opinions, beliefs and perceptions (until 11th August, 2015), 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) awareness of problems internationally, their possible repercussions, and ways of addressing them constructively seem, to me, to be better than they were half a decade ago – but that to continue to be so, awareness and understanding must continue to adapt as circumstances change;
(c) failure to be diligent, even in trifling matters, contributes to the energy that causes, fosters and maintains corruption –which can poison even the best thing;
(d) just as people who are not brash, noisy or rich deserve to be noticed and listened to and cared about, so too do the nations that are smaller, poorer and less noticed on the world stage;
(e) bystanders need to accept their responsibility to take BPLF action and do so – whether it be racism in society, or amongst the nations of the world;
(f) access to accurate, unbiased and honest information is vital – as is having the comprehension, understanding and sense to interpret it well;
(g) learn from history – past lives on a personal scale, and the social, technological, political and spiritual on a regional, national or world scale;
(h) there comes a time when one has to stand up for a principle;
(i) we are all connected: a billion people in desperate poverty doesn’t mean we should not celebrate birthdays and the like, but the celebrations would have a better psychic environment if those billion people were lifted out of poverty;
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:   the UN Electoral Observation Mission in Burundi has given its preliminary statement regarding the conduct of the 21st July presidential elections, and stated that, while Election Day was relatively peaceful and conducted adequately, the overall environment was not conducive for an inclusive, free and credible election process;   the dangers of an extended presidency in Burundi;   in a speech meant to inspire Kenyans, particularly young men and women, President Barack Obama praised the country’s immense progress, but warned that it is endangered by chronic corruption;   concerns over whether or not Egypt’s Parliament will be representative;
  • with regard to crime, judicial matters and policing:   courts in Ecuador are delaying hearing appeals from anti-Government protestors;   the U.S. State Department retained India’s classification as a “Tier II” nation for human trafficking concerns, which implied that the U.S. viewed India as a country that whose government did not fully comply with its Trafficking Victims’ Protection Act’s (TVPA) minimum standards, but was making significant efforts to bring themselves into compliance with those standards;   11 people have been followed following an appalling human sacrifice in Nepal;   concerns that trials of Gaddafi-era officials were flawed;   concerns that US proposals for mass trials would constitute undue legal process;   an article on the inadequate police, legal and judicial responses victims of domestic violence receive;   PNG are threatening to arrest the Australian managers on Manus Island if the staff who have been accused of sexual assaults are not returned to PNG (good!);   IBAC will investigate claims of police brutality and racism in an arrest in Melbourne's west six years ago, after a Victorian Court of Appeal decision;   five men in northern Mexico have been sentenced to an unprecedented 697 years in prison for the gender-driven killing of 11 women;   concerns that US police have been learning and adopting aggressive Israeli techniques, leading to the question: “Which model do we prefer as a country: the Israeli national security state or a nation under laws?”;   a white US police officer has been charged with murder after shooting dead a black driver during a traffic stop over a missing car licence plate;   proposals to crack down on bikies in South Australia;   I’m a bit late with this one, but a black police officer in the USA has been photographed helping a distressed white supremacist;
  • with regard to human rights and discrimination:   a good review of a local racism sports scandal here, and the problematic attitudes it shows – see also here and here, and I am glad someone has finally called on the players to take action;   “merit” based appointments are not actually necessarily free of bias, and claims that the absence of women in politics is not merit-based, and Julia Gillard considers that Australia has gone backwards on this issue;   a call for protection of trans people in India;   bigotry in Israel leads a repeat violent incident;
  • with regard to media and freedom of expression:   an attempt to determine relative media influence (in Australia);   concerns over what appears to be censorship in Israel;   an Azerbaijani journalist has accused the secret police of detaining his wife without charge to pressure him into returning to the country;
  • with regard to refugees:      the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has received reports that suggest a violent clampdown on people who are attempting to flee Da’esh-controlled areas in Iraq is occurring. An increasing number of people have been attempting to escape, and at least four families, including children and elderly people, reportedly died earlier this month after attempting the journey without a guide and with very few supplies. OHCHR reiterated that all parties must ensure that civilians are protected, that they have unhindered access to medical facilities and humanitarian assistance, and that they are able to leave areas affected by violence safely and with dignity;   a warning that European Union leaders would do well to take note of a 24th July Canadian Federal Court ruling that Canada’s “safe country of origin” (SCO) list is unconstitutional because it is “discriminatory on its face” and serves to “marginalize, prejudice, and stereotype” asylum seekers coming from countries the government has designated as safe;
  • 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):   the leader of the Taleban in Afghanistan may be dead, which may not be a good thing – this death, 2 years ago and of natural causes, has now been confirmed;   claims that Da’esh is planning to try to provoke a confrontation between India and the USA, and to unite the Pakistani and Afghani Taleban;
  • with regard to China:   China and Russia have agreed to cooperate in the South China Sea – which is concerning;   concerns over water supply in China (from my experience of working there, pollution of waterways is also a major problem);   the problem of wealth transfer to the wealthy, which may be the outcome of stabilising the Chinese markets;
  • with regard to the conflict in Iraq (noting that Iraq was once a peaceful and prosperous society, before the US / CIA backed revolution – see here):   the UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Iraq, Lise Grande, confirmed today that 184 frontline health services have been suspended because of the paralysing funding shortfall for humanitarian activities in Iraq. Over 80 per cent of general health programmes have been forced to shut down, affecting one million people;   the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has received reports that suggest a violent clampdown on people who are attempting to flee Da’esh-controlled areas in Iraq is occurring. An increasing number of people have been attempting to escape, and at least four families, including children and elderly people, reportedly died earlier this month after attempting the journey without a guide and with very few supplies. OHCHR reiterated that all parties must ensure that civilians are protected, that they have unhindered access to medical facilities and humanitarian assistance, and that they are able to leave areas affected by violence safely and with dignity;
  • with regard to Russia:   China and Russia have agreed to cooperate in the South China Sea – which is concerning;   Russia has (ab)used its veto power to block a tribunal into the shooting down of flight MH17;
  • with regard to Sudan and South Sudan:   the Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, Stephen O’Brien, wrapped up his four-day visit to South Sudan over the weekend, and returned to New York where he called on all parties to lay down their arms and commit to sustainable peace to halt the rapidly spiralling humanitarian crisis, which had left him deeply shocked;   an article reviewing the effect of al-Bashir’s visit to South Africa on his victims – the referenced link is gruesome, but covers topics that should be known: suggestions on how to help here (the Wikipedia link is quite shallow and superficial, being only a list of military events and a passing reference to the human rights situation);   a call to support the Intergovernmental Authority on Development in South Sudan;
  • with regard to the conflict in Syria:   the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Stephen O’Brien, briefed the Security Council on the situation in Syria, and said that the past month was yet another one with grim statistics about the suffering of the Syrians and a situation marked by the complete failure of the protection of civilians, and added that 12.2 million Syrians are in need of humanitarian assistance today and that intense fighting across the country has also created a surge in displacements;   gains against Da’esh, but a town has been left littered with landmines;   the UN Secretary-General has said that the price of continuing the Syrian war is simply too high, adding that in the name of humanity, there is no alternative to the negotiating table;   Israel has attacked a town in Syria; ;   Syria doubts Turkey’s motivations behind its recent attacks against Da’esh in Syria;   Turkey has shelled a Kurdish held village in Syria;   a review of the significance of the US-Turkey military agreement in the fight against Da’esh in Syria (“President Obama’s most significant step”);   a review of the UN Special Envoy for Syria;
  • with regard to the war in Yemen:   as warnings are given that Yemen faces starvation, the UN Secretary-General has welcomed the announcement by the Saudi-led Coalition of a unilateral five-day, renewable humanitarian pause in Yemen, which began overnight on Sunday. He urged the Houthis, the General People’s Congress and all other parties to agree to and maintain the humanitarian pause for the sake of all the Yemeni people and urged all sides to act in good faith throughout the pause. He appealed to all parties to exercise maximum restraint in cases of isolated violations and to avoid any escalation. Sadly, the UN Emergency Relief Coordinator, Stephen O’Brien, in a briefing to the Security Council on Tuesday afternoon, said that the humanitarian pause announced over the weekend in Yemen has not been respected by any party to the conflict, with airstrikes and ground fighting reported in eight governorates;   the World Health Organization (WHO) has reported that the largest single attack since the escalation of the conflict in March has killed at least 55 civilians in Al Mukha District in the Taizz Governorate. The number is likely to increase as more bodies are recovered from the rubble, where an unknown number of people have been trapped for more than 36 hours since the attacks (see also here);   the World Food Programme has begun distributions of food to around 340,000 people in eight of the worst-affected areas of the southern Yemeni port city of Aden;
  • with regard to the natural and other catastrophes :   30 people have been killed in a landslide in Nepal;
Also from the Daily Briefings of the United Nations (UN) (and other sources):
  • following the adoption of the outcome of the 3rd International Conference on Financing for Development, the Secretary-General said that, by endorsing the outcome document, the General Assembly will take a major step on the path towards sustainable development and ending extreme poverty in all its forms. Only by staying engaged we will ensure that the commitments we endorse today will lead to tangible progress on the ground, in all countries and for all people, he added;
  • the UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, Nickolay Mladenov, said he was concerned by recent incidents and heightened tensions in and around the Holy Sites of the Old City of Jerusalem, and he called upon people on all sides to maintain calm;
  • the Secretary-General’s Special Adviser on Cyprus, Espen Barth Eide, told reporters today that the Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot leaders continue to make progress towards their shared vision of a united, federal Cyprus;
  • the Food and Agriculture Organization has expressed optimism that a growing number of countries are ratifying an international agreement to combat illegal fishing;
From other sites:
  • Human Rights Watch also has:   a review of the USA’s annual report on child soldiers;   Slovakia has joined the ban on cluster munitions (which is here as a reminder that such a ban exists);   an article on the life of women who have been rescued from Boko Haram;
  • the Middle East Eye also has:
     - Bahrain has declared medical staff who treat injured protestors to be “enemies of the state”;
     - a review of Iran’s hostility towards Israel which suggests that international backing for a solution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict would ease the hostility;
     - a review of Israel’s attitudes towards Egypt in recent years;   illegal Israeli settlement buildings will be demolished, and then immediately re-built;   concerns that US police have been learning and adopting aggressive Israeli techniques, leading to the question: “Which model do we prefer as a country: the Israeli national security state or a nation under laws?”;   Israel will now force feed Palestinian prisoners who engage in hunger strikes;
     - violent discrimination against trans people in Turkey;   Syria doubts Turkey’s motivations behind its recent attacks against Da’esh in Syria;   Turkey has shelled a Kurdish held village in Syria;   an analysis of how the Turkish peace process collapsed, which states “Turkey’s leaders have painted themselves into a corner over the Kurdish conflict, a situation from which only the extremists can benefit”;   see also here for a review of the overall conflict between Turkey and Da’esh, and here for a review of the “two fronts” of Turkey is fighting on, and here for a review of the significance of the US-Turkey military agreement in the fight against Da’esh in Syria (“President Obama’s most significant step”), and here and here, and also see here, and here;
     - a Sinai-based human rights lawyer has spoken to the Middle East Eye about cases of disappeared civilians in Sinai shortly before he was arrested;   in a concerning [to me] development, the USA will give Egypt fighter aircraft;
     - despite explicit warnings from MI5, UK politicians are still refusing to acknowledge how the UK’s role in the Iraq invasion led to terrorism at home;
  • the Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect also has:   a current fortnightly report, aiming to give background, offer analysis, track international response and suggest necessary action, for four nations in immediate crisis (“mass atrocities are occurring and urgent action is needed”: Syria, Iran, Sudan and South Sudan), three nations at imminent risk (“the situation is reaching a critical threshold and the risk of mass atrocity crimes occurring in the immediate future is very high if effective preventive action is not taken”: Nigeria, Democratic Republic of Congo and Burundi), and five nations for which there is serious concern (“significant risk of occurrence, or recurrence, of mass atrocity crimes within the foreseeable future if effective action is not taken”: Central African Republic, Burma/Myanmar, Libya, Yemen and Pakistan);   is working to restrain abuse of the veto in the UN Security Council on mass atrocity situations;   is working with emerging powers and regional bodies as an essential part of clarifying, institutionalizing and advancing R2P;   since its inception in 2008 the Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect has co-hosted an annual Ministerial Meeting on R2P during the opening of the General Assembly session;   a quotation from former Australian Foreign Minister  Gareth  Evans: “Mass atrocities cannot be universally ignored and sovereignty is not a Licence to kill”;
Recommended actions are:
   in Syria (I will work through other nations from the report in coming weeks):
  • Syrian government forces and armed opposition groups must facilitate immediate and unimpeded humanitarian access, and the international community must intensify efforts towards finding a potential political solution and increasing humanitarian assistance: from an energetic point of view, what is required to enable this is (a) changing the focus of combatant’s away from their aims towards noticing the damage being done, and to consider whether or not this damage is actually worth it; (b) getting leaders of all groups to review their addiction to, or belief that they have or should have power for presumed good outcomes and also consider whether or not this damage is actually worth it; (c) clear grief/denial of grief, anger and desire for vengeance; (d) channel a desire to rise above circumstances;
  • the UNSC needs to take proximate steps to end atrocities in Syria, including imposing an arms embargo and referring the situation to the ICC for perpetrators, regardless of affiliation, brought to justice: from an energetic point of view, what is required to enable this is realistic commitment to human rights and BPLF principles by decision makers;
  • Russia, Iran and Hezbollah must cease enabling the crimes of the Syrian government, and countries opposed to the rule of President Bashar Al-Assad must withhold support to armed groups who commit war crimes or target minority communities for reprisals. States participating in airstrikes against ISIL must ensure all necessary precautions are taken to avoid civilian casualties and uphold International Humanitarian Law (IHL) : from an energetic point of view, what is required to enable this is the work I suggested here in relation to Mr Putin, and, more generally, enough self confidence and patience to be open to the possibility of listening to
  • the US-based and -centric “War on the Rocks” blog (which I have found may also have other articles that I have concerns with - and thus do not provide links to, unless I want you to think … :) ) also has:   a review of a book about the partition of India and Pakistan;   a review of the possible effects of the Iranian nuclear deal on Pakistan, which is trying to avoid being drawn into a proxy Saudi-Iranian war, India, which could benefit environmentally, and Afghanistan, which could benefit economically and become more stable as a result;   the crippling effect that a focus on budget had on US naval strategic thinking, and a review of problems with current acquisitions planning in the US military generally;   a critique of Turkey’s situation, policies and actions with regard to Kurds and Da’esh;
  • the Justice in Conflict blog has:   an article reviewing the effect of al-Bashir’s visit to South Africa on his victims – the referenced link is gruesome, but covers topics that should be known: suggestions on how to help here (the Wikipedia link is quite shallow and superficial, being only a list of military events and a passing reference to the human rights situation);   a review of international connections (including to former US President Reagan) and implications relating to former Chadian dictator Hissène Habré, currently on trial;
  • the Political Violence at a Glance blog has:   the presence of nonviolence activists in  conflict zones reduces child abuse, but the presence of violence in a conflict zone makes abuse of children more likely;   an article on the problems of some food policies such as grain subsidies;   a review of the difference between  academic and public support for military action in hypothetical situations, with the academics being more likely to support that in only one situation (does this show that academia needs to do more to educate the general public? Since I’ve started this work, I have been surprised at how much evidence exists to support peaceful resolution of problems – my support prior had been a matter of spiritual principle);   a review of the effects of “militant proliferation” and fragmentation;
  • the Institute for War and Peace Reporting also has:   Kyrgyzstan is becoming wary of the USA;   Kyrgyzstan’s security service killed and detained militants who it said were planning a series of attacks in the country, but questions remain about how close the group’s involvement with Da’esh really was;
  • The Hindu also has:   the Bangladesh Nationalist Party’s (BNP) decision to drop its demand for the formation of a caretaker government under whose charge parliamentary elections would be held, offers a fresh opportunity to resolve an extended political deadlock (since the re-election of the Sheikh Hasina-led Awami League government in January 2014);   the Tamil National Alliance (TNA), a coalition of Tamil political parties in Sri Lanka, has demanded that the country frame a new Constitution to address a host of issues it’s grappling with, including the Tamil question;   an editorial against the death penalty;   claims that Da’esh is planning to try to provoke a confrontation between India and the USA, and to unite the Pakistani and Afghani Taleban;   an article on human trafficking, which is apparently the third most lucrative criminal activity in the world, after drugs and arms dealing;   concerns over privacy in India;
  • the BBC also has:   forensic experts in Colombia have begun a search for dozens of bodies at a landfill site believed to be one of the largest urban mass graves in the world;   the United States has removed Cuba from its list of countries that fail to combat human trafficking;   the Peruvian army says it has rescued 39 people from a farm where the Shining Path rebel group kept them as slaves;   the Turkish president has said his country cannot continue the peace process with the Kurds amid attacks by Kurdish militants on Turkish targets (overview here);   a Palestinian toddler has been burned to death in an arson attack by suspected Jewish settlers in a West Bank village, according to Israeli police;
  • the (South African) Mail & Guardian also has:   concerns over unemployment and work prospects in South Africa;   an editorial on the problems with the ANC and President Zuma;
and from other sites:
  • a warning of the risks around autonomous weapons;
  • an explanation  of the differences between sociopaths and psychopaths (psychopaths are born and sociopaths are made);
  • an article claiming that the gun lobby got its lobbying strategy from the tobacco lobby;
  • on the 204th day of the year, the USA has had 204 mass shootings;
  • I am still thinking about this article, which has some good suggestions, and others I’m less pleased about;
  • suggestions on how to respond if someone tells you that they have been raped or sexually assaulted;
  • an article by an Iraqi feminist about her experiences;
  • another sexual assault by the US TSA – hidden behind a bland “normal routine”, which shows a lack of awareness that is appalling;
  • a review of events in the Middle East in 1979, their continuing legacy, and the possibility of change following the Iranian nuclear deal;
  • I have been thinking about writing a post about the backsliding of societies – for instance, Afghanistan was once a peaceful and modern society, even allowing women in miniskirts, before the Russian invasion – see here;   Iraq was once a peaceful and prosperous society, before the CIA backed revolution – see here;   and   Lebanon had a “Golden Age” in the 1960s when it was the economic leader of the region – see here and here. The motivation for this is a combination of knowing so many people now – particularly some young people I know – who are dismissive of history, and my concern at the violence shown by both sides of the anti-Muslim and anti-racism divide in Australia recently. I know that seemingly small divisions such as that can lead to bigger problems (as an example, I recall seeing a documentary which was dismissive, because of the limited numbers of modern weapons, of a threatened revolt on Bougainville a couple of years before the civil war – and I have a relative who was there at that time, who knows how savage the fighting was despite the lack of modern weapons; I also recall the public violence in the 1970s before the civil war in Sri Lanka): Australia is, perhaps, more stable than some of the examples I’ve given, so widespread physical is, perhaps, inconceivable … but it is not impossible, particularly given the widespread non-physical violence on this issue, widespread physical violence elsewhere (e.g., domestic violence, which kills one Australian woman a day, if I recall correctly) and the disturbing lack of experience, naïveté and superficiality of some who are trying to make this world a better place. At least there is a fairly long period of preparatory decay, with views hardening on both sides of a divide, before the worst violence … But I digress. What I was going to write about here was the topic of human shields. I once worked with someone who was one of the human shields in Kuwait (a nasty little bigot he was, too), incidentally, but as I was researching social backsliding, I came across a few interesting sites about the history of Palestine (see here and here), and then, in an article on the 1936-39 Arab revolt in Palestine, I came across this photo, and realised just how widespread and long standing the practice of using human shields was, and how very few, if any, have any moral superiority on this issue.
