An 8 minute video in which leaders of the Wounaan tribe of the rainforests of Eastern Panama introduce their people, culture, and environment, and describe the challenges they are facing in protecting their traditional lands.
"Home to Darien National Park, Central America's second largest reserve and World Heritage Site. Darien is also blessed with an extraordinarily rich cultural history. For over 500 years it has been home to a diverse mix of Afro-Caribbean, indigenous and colono communities, all of them proud Darienitas.
Today, however, rapid change overwhelms both the land and its people. Unsustainable logging and road construction is quickly destroying both the forest and a way of life, and threatens consequences far beyond the region itself.
"Voces del Darien" suggests that a brighter future for all lies in a committed partnership and innovative solutions -- government, non-government and Darienitas working together so that the beauty, wealth and livelihood of Darien will be preserved for future generations."
"Washington, D.C.—After two years of brutal government repression and destruction of their homeland, the Ngöbe Indians of western Panama won a major victory yesterday as the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights called on Panama to suspend all work on a hydroelectric dam that threatens the Ngöbe homeland. The Chan-75 Dam is being built across the Changuinola River by the government of Panama and a subsidiary of the Virginia-based energy giant AES Corporation."

CULTURAL SURVIVAL
This month, June 2009, there was a crop circle in England that looks like a Mayan kite. The crop circle is telling people to help these indigenous cultures in the lands of the Maya. The eco-system of the world depends upon it.A Kite is a symbol of freedom and it goes up and down and around with the wind. There are three strings to the kite with mayan hieroglyphs and this could signify three years. That takes us to the summer of 2012.

It also looks like another wind chime crop circle. See wind chime post on our other blog posted today.

The Truth will set you free...
"I was shown a vision of a closed black oyster type shell. The people who had the shell in their hand’s were very frustrated because they kept hitting the shell harder and harder on the rock of literals, they were trying to force it to open. They could not understand why the beautiful shell would not open for them. Jesus said 'In their innocence they are refusing to see that all it takes to open the shell is love, but while they continue to be rigid in their thinking and keep their hearts closed, the shell will never open. You truly understand me, they did not wish to listen, they did not wish to hear me but the truth still rings in their ears." from Sacred Words.....

THE WALLS OF DIVISION WILL COME DOWN....
No matter where they are found.
A few year ago Jesus said "The stitches are coming apart at the seams"
Prophet Malachi predicted "But for you who revere my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. And you will go out and leap like calves released from the stall."Malachi 4:2
HEALING IS UNDER WINGS
Can you teach your own souls to fly?
Peace beyond measure

Archangel Michael - Brave Souls
Brave souls are those of you who stand up, speak out and are counted.
You rally others and bring them close to your wing.
You allow them to sing their own tune and feel their own soul's yearning.
You sow the seeds and watch them grow. Tendering them as you go.
Brave souls look straight into thine own heart, for clarity and the truth, then live it in your daily lives, breaking all the ties.
Detachment is the key.
It enables you to see things in a totally different light, there is no need to fight.
In your sight is a peaceful setting of tranquilty, the angels are in flight watch them fly like a kite, the sky is alight with their love.
Brave souls can run bare, for they have no fear for themselves or those that are close and dear.
Everything is sheer, soft and a gentle embrace.
Love gives them the courage to break the chains of bondage and ensure that everything is just and fair.
When romance is in the air, their hearts warm and smile for they know that destiny plays it's hand as the sands shift time.
When the clock strikes they know what they must do, where they must go and what they must say.
They take their steps with honour, holding their heads high towards the sky.
Their eyes filled with humilty, love and compassion.
They never look back or rack their brains for the sound of pain.
For they know that this is a foundation but not the totality of creation.
Brave souls just 'know' all is well, all will be alright.
They see a different perspective, a clear vision of what is ahead of humankind.
Brave souls are the knights of the round table and my angels in disguise.

Rest in Peace
LEAVING OUR HOUSE
We leave the physical realm when our lease runs out and it is time for us to create something new.
As we leave our temple shrine, we bring together all that was, all that is and all that there could ever be.
We accept the pathways that we walked, the talk and the service that we did provide.
Now reunited with the Godhead once again coming into full bloom like the power of the full moon.
Let us pray for the magic to begin, another time, another place a different dimension from the one that we
once knew.
May peace be with you
A poem written for a lady who had just buried her mother.
WE ARE THE WORLD
LEARNING
After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses are not contracts and presents aren't promises.
You begin to accept your defeats with your head up and eyes open and with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child.
You learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for your plans.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So plant your own garden and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers and you will learn that you really can endure, that you really are special.
You really do have worth, so live to learn and know yourself, in doing so, you will learn to live.
Anon
Rest in peace Michael.

The World Unites to support the people of Iran
"People unite in 30 cities worldwide to support the people of Iran as they fight for freedom, as they protest oppression, terror, and the brutal atrocities of the Islamic Republic of Iran"
One poster on the internet wrote:
“I am a long time internet user, witnessed the boom, the net going mainstream etc. Never I have seen the internet so active for one cause. People voluntarily making proxies for Iranians to bypass the censors and remain anonymous, videos spreading very fast and whole internet communities trying to help. This may very well be the first revolution where the internet plays a leading role. But no matter the outcome, what goes on the net stays on the net."

The Pendalum Crop Circle
Another Crop Circle, 4.30am, Milk Hill (3), White Horse nr Alton Barnes, Wiltshire. Reported 21st June and discovered by Steve Amor.
Image courtesy of Russell Stannard Copyright 2009, and Crop Circle Connector.
http://www.cropcircleconnector.com/2009/milkhill3/milkhill2009c.html
The image of the pendalum and balance is also symbolic of the moral compass that is in place when people live in the fifth heaven of the state of unconditional love.
CORPUS CHRISTI CLOCK, CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND
"The Corpus Clock has been invented and designed by Dr John Taylor (the inventor of the cordless kettle) for Corpus Christi College Cambridge for the exterior of the college's new library building. It was unveiled on 19 September by Prof Stephen Hawking, cosmologist and author of the global bestseller, A Brief History of Time. The £1 million timepiece, known as The Corpus Clock, had been commissioned and designed to honour the John Harrison, who was famously the pioneer of Longitude and inventor of the esoteric clock mechanism known as a grasshopper escapement. The clock has been designed by the inventor and horologist Dr John Taylor and makes ingenious use of the grasshopper escapement, moving it from the inside of the clock to the outside and refashioning it as a Chronophage, or time-eater, which literally devours time."
The clock was one of Time's Best Inventions of 2008.[1]
Below the clock is an inscription from the Vulgate 1 John 2:17: mundus transit et concupiscentia eius ("the world passeth away, and the lust thereof").[1]The Grasshopper also ties up with enlightenment and the Lotus Flower crop circle.
STUDENTS OF LIFE, PLANET EARTH IS THE BEST ACADEMY, CAN YOU GRADUATE WITH THREE DEGREES IN LIFE EXPERIENCE OF THE ASCENT OF THE TREE OF LIFE?
Students of life try to read the clock. However, most people do not have a clue how to read the nature of creation. Most children are not taught how to read the signs of the cosmos and the signs within themselves.
Jesus said 'I tell you truly, the Book of Nature is a HOLY SCROLL, and if you would have the Sons of Men save themselves and find everlasting life, teach them how once again to read from the living pages of the Earthly Mother. For in everything that is life is the law written. It is written in the grass, in the trees, in the rivers, in the mountains, birds of the sky and fishes of the sea; and most of all in the Son of Man.
Only when he returns to the bosom of the Earthly Mother will he find everlasting life and the Stream of Life which leads to his Heavenly Father; only thus may the dark vision of the future not come to pass". The Essene Gospel of Peace, Book 4, Teachings of the Elect. It is clear in this passage that again, Jesus was not talking about himself because he already was one with the Father.
Corpus Christi Carol
What else is the book of nature trying to tell humanity?
Grasshopper keynote: Uncanny leaps forward.
Although the ancient Hebrews saw the grasshopper as a symbol of scourge, in other cultures it held a position of honour and respect. The Greeks viewed it as a symbol of nobility. The advice of grass hooper is to listen to your inner voice to know when to make your moves in any area of your life. Legs can move in different directions. Grasshopper teaches people to learn to make leaps in consciousness; life only becomes difficult if people refuse to shift. Those that don't move forward experience a scourge themselves; change is as natural as the seasons of nature and if people refuse to change they get stuck and then they get sick. Grasshopper leaps up and forward, it doesn't leap backwards. [3]
Children usually love the sound of grasshoppers. They love nature and the music of the spheres when they are allowed to be at one with nature.
Physical reality is the barometer of balance -v- imbalance and the crop circle is imparting the message that it is imperative that all people make a leap in consciousness before it is too late. It is paramount that humanity live in harmony with the moral compass and the creation of God.
The crop circle of the phoenix rising out of the flames also shows a clock on top of the Phoenix. This crop circle is indicative of the Persian Prophet and relates to current world events. [4]
When you can read the signs of nature you can read the signs of life. When you can read the signs of life then you graduate from earthly reality.

Lotus Flower Crop Circle
The crop circle of the Lotus Flower, Cascina Martina, Riva Presso Chieri, Torino. Italy Reported 20th June 2009.
http://www.cropcircleconnector.com/inter2009/italy/CascinaMartina.html
It is time for the Lotus Feet to dance again, Italy is where this journey began. The White Stone was bestowed in Assisi in September 2003 and three beautiful women stood hand in hand, side by side with us on their Reiki Healing Masters training course.
Healing is the sacred path home to God, it is the pathway to enlightenment. A true follower of Christ becomes a healer like their role model.
"I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who (know) believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come." Ephesians 1:17-21
Lotus Feet in the Chinese Gardens, Sydney, Australia, 1999.
"A mystic is one who passes away, He (she) abides in the essence of that which is real. Such a person is a PURE clear wine without dregs. Now whole he(she) displays the most beautiful names." Rumi
May Glory be to God

Zest for Life for Iran - You can help them
Life is like a fresh fruit and if you wish to help Iran and the Persian people you can send them the sunshine of a citrus fruit. Imagine putting a lemon into the hands of individuals as a gift from God so that their zest for a life of freedom can continue. The palms of the hands also have a minor heart energy centre and it is easy for small hands to surround the lemon and take the energy into their hearts.
_-_Girl_Holding_Lemons_(1899).jpg)
Painting by William-Adolphe Bouguereau: Girl Holding Lemons
The healing balm of lemon.
It must be a lemon due to it carrying a specific energetic frequency that they require right now because many of them are feeling crushed, smashed and squeezed. The frequency of lemon is also compatible with their land and people due to its origination. Saladin's healer, Ibn Jami' wrote a treatise on the lemon and Pliny also wrote about this medicinal fruit. [1]
The lemon is also the shape of an egg and its symbolic of new life waiting to be born. The colour lemon is also for creativity e.g. innovative solutions to the harsh realities that they face. It also works with the throat and helps communications to flow more easily.
It balances the male and feminine energies and has regenerative properties. Lemon activates the mental body and was used in conjunction with colour healing therapy and is a good stress reliever. Slices of lemon in hot water in the morning is also very good for detoxing and purifying. It was used as a flower essence in Atlantis, Sirius and Elmuria. If you wish to help the people of Iran send them the energy of a lemon and in so doing you will be sending them the energy of the zest for life.
LEMON DAY 4th July 2009
The young ones wish to dance free with the zest of life. Spain broke free from Islamic autocratic rule and Iran can do so too.
4th July 2009 = 22 the number of the vibration of divine mother.
The name of the Persian Prophet Zoroaster was also given and he is with the people of Iran and their battle for freedom. It is written that most of his works were kept at the library of Alexandria in Egypt before it was destroyed. There is also a major portal opening In Iran at the moment, it is connected to their ancient prophet and the mystery teachings. Spiritual people in Iran will know where this portal is; it is a major gateway.
THE COLOUR IS YELLOW
Breathe it in.....

FREEDOM FOR IRAN
We support Iran's wish for freedom and equality. The front page of a British newspaper had a photo of a million people on the March today.
Iran Campaign for Equality - 1 Million Signature
The Campaign, "One Million Signatures Demanding Changes to Discriminatory Laws," also called the "Change for Equality" campaign, is a campaign initiated by Iranian women's rights activists in Iran which aims to collect one million signatures to demand changes to discriminatory laws against women in Iran. This campaign is a follow-up effort to the peaceful protest of the same aim, which took place on June 12, 2006 in Haft-e Tir Square in Tehran. Preparation activities in support of this campaign commenced in June of 2006 and the campaign was officially launched on August 27, during a seminar entitled: "The Impact of Laws on Women's Lives."

Create Art and Make Music
This is a wonderful video from a Korean. There are so many layers to the message. God works in mysterious ways.
Miru Kim: Making art of New York's urban ruins
The Bedouin Flutist at Petra
"For three hours, our guide — a lithe, graceful, and taciturn young man — led us through the stunning desert from Little Petra to The Monastery at the main Petra site. He then ushered us into the interior of the monastery, a large cave-like space, and there left us to our own devices. He hoisted himself up on a stone wall, pulled out a simple metal flute and began to play Bedouin songs. His music resonated through the cave and through centuries of time."
God bless them all that make art and music

A Polar Whales Appeal
"In 1850, the final years of 'Yankee whaling', the Captain of a whaling vessel wrote an article entitled 'A Polar Whale's Appeal'. This article, which is a first person narrative spoken by a Bowhead Whale, is a plea on behalf of the 'Whale Nation' to put an end to the killing of his species. It was published in 'The Honolulu Friend' on October 15, 1850. We came across this article in the archives of the New Bedford whaling museum, Massachusetts while conducting research for the establishment of The Oceania Project in 1986."
We kindly thank Mr. R. Carlos Nakai for allowing us to add his Native American Cedar Flute to this film:

In biblical times those that did not take care of God's creation were called wicked. Those that did not honour the creation of God did not honour God either. If you truly honour God then you will also honour the creation of Mother Earth and its inhabitants.

A Prayer for the WORLD....
The next video on the Christ Vision of Peace - The Love Union will be ready in a couple of months time.
In the meantime we would like everyone to engage in a prayer for the world.
Many years ago we used to say this prayer daily and it is very appropriate for the world now.
THE SERENITY PRAYER
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. Courage to change the things that I can and Wisdom to know the difference".
And the prayer of St. Francis, sung by Angelina
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.
Blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God
Love beyond measure
In the meantime we would like everyone to engage in a prayer for the world.
Many years ago we used to say this prayer daily and it is very appropriate for the world now.
THE SERENITY PRAYER
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. Courage to change the things that I can and Wisdom to know the difference".
And the prayer of St. Francis, sung by Angelina
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.
Blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God
Love beyond measure
