I’m going to begin this with a reminder that the work of this blog is:
- clearing nonBPM nonphysical units (in a sense, doing the shadow work of the world - see also here), including doing spirit rescues,
and
- BPM strengthening of BPM units - some nonphysical, some incarnated people . . . and one of, if not the, best ways that is done is strengthening people's connection with their own Higher Self (which is possibly not what they interpret as their conscience).
Also:
Black Lives Matter! Be Anti-Racist, Anti-Sexist, and Actively Inclusive in ALL
Areas.
The Climate Crisis is real, urgent and existential!
The Pandemic is Real, and Vaccinations save lives. Stay
safe - wash your hands, wear a face mask in
public if prudent to do so, and follow informed medical advice.
We also need to be more human being rather than human doing.
Having made those points, here are some links that you, Dear Reader, may find of interest or value (articles by others unless stated otherwise):
- the disturbing problems - including toxic masculinity and failure to address causes - of anger management courses (The Guardian);
- my thoughts on: “A patronising, offensive and ANONYMOUS non-reply from the Minister for Immigration, Citizenship and Multicultural Affairs on why a divisive, n___-associated transmisic person was allowed in [Content Warning - discrimination, hate]”; “A defence and a challenge [Content Warning: discrimination, violence, self harm]”; “Victoria Police apologise for past and present racism, indicate openness to independent oversight "if asked"”; my work pre-retirement retirement speech;
- from Medium this week: the problem of spiritual bypassing; “cis white gay male fragility. If your “activism” isn’t intersectional, it is garbage. Being gay doesn’t absolve you of bigotry. ... And when you make mistakes, which we all do, rise to the occasion. The bravest, strongest people in this world are the ones who have the humility to apologize and change when they cause harm. Finally, if you are a “one-cause” person and the one cause you happen to support is your own, consider that you may be a mean, useless dud and reflect on that”;
- from YouTube: an interesting talk and Q&A by Daniel Drasin on “a new science of the afterlife” - see also here, here, and here;
- from my favourite Druid blogger: “decentering christianity in religious discussions”;
- this week’s “afterlife report” by the Zammits.
In preparation for tomorrow’s psychic weather report, I do a weekly summary of news links - every one of which is an opportunity to do the work of this blog, which I outlined at the start of this post. Before I get in to that, a CONTENT WARNING - some of the news links are about upsetting, disturbing or triggering events & attitudes. Seek competent help - including professional - if you need it. Content shown in green (which may be only part of a news story) is about what is generally considered “good news”, but personal history may still make such events triggering. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers are advised that linked articles may contains names and/or images of deceased people. Reader caution is recommended. For anyone distressed by anything in this post, or for any other reason considering seeking support, resources are available in Australia here, here, and here. In other nations, you will have to do an Internet search using terms such as “mental health support - <your nation>” (which, for instance, may lead to this, this, and this, in the USA, or this, this, and this, in France [biased towards English-language - my apologies]).
The news post can be accessed at:
One part of the post covers natural and other disasters, which are always an excellent opportunity to do the work of this blog, so I will copy that section here:
- on NATURAL and OTHER DISASTERS (noting Article 1(3) of the UN Charter) including COVID-19 AND OTHER PANDEMICS:
- a warning that, despite the WHO’s premature and irresponsible decision, the risks of the COVID-19 pandemic continue (TH); a locust plague in Afghanistan (UN); a cyclone is threatening South Asia (TH); floods have killed hundreds in the eastern DRC (F24) and also impacted Rwanda (DW); water shortages in Tunisia (Le Monde); bushfires in Canada (F24) and a heatwave and bushfires in Siberia (Le Monde); drought in Spain (F24); “in epicentre of Türkiye quakes, survivors are indifferent to upcoming polls” (F24), and “almost $15 billion needed for earthquake recovery in Syria” (UN); a mine fire has killed dozens in Peru (DW);
Another part lists a few key points from the news, which are also an excellent opportunity to do the work of this blog, so I will also copy that section here:
- fascist extremists continued to be emboldened, and a range of actions against them are also slowly growing but staggeringly narrow focus continues the existential risks of climate crisis, nuclear, and inequality & inequity;
If you appreciated this post, please consider promoting it - there are some links below.
Finally, remember: we need to be more human being rather than human doing.
