Behind the official storyline

I find it slightly intimidating all the titles. It would seem to make more sense to me to be able to place a series of blogs under each title depending on what you felt like writing about but with my present level of computer aptitude I have to live with what I have. I haven't written here for a while and part of the reason is I have been busy doing other stuff that needed doing but that of course is the story I tell myself. Because I did on a number of occasions go to write but I didn't know what string to pull. I have been reading a number of new books that have only just been published. One of them Gregg Braden's 'Deep Truth', I was reading today where he talks about world crisis in terms of - 'if what is happening in the world is not considered a crisis what is?' That is not a quote it is a paraphrase. And of course he is right. There have always been trouble spots on the earth; there have always been disasters, some of mammoth proportion. But a lot is happening right now. And mainstream media is not contextualizing what is going on. Well they are, but not everything. There is a lot of talk of global warming but 30% of Republicans in the USA don't apparently believe it is happening. Icebergs are melting, glaciers are disappearing all because of higher than normal temperatures over a protracted period of time and large parts of Earth’s population are still saying it’s not happening! In North Africa wars, revolutions, rioting, demands to leaders from people like you and me, who are laying down their lives because they crave change! Because they have found the strength to say enough is enough. They have noticed that their leaders who once would have led them through their desert habitats in their nomadic wanderings and protected them from others who might have found advantage in attacking them. Those, who; once used their wisdom and experience to find out appropriate areas where the tribe might feed; their natural protectors. But suddenly it’s like blinkers are removed and everybody wakes up and realizes that they are being abused, they are nothing but serfs. The blinkers are coming off all over the world. We don't see it quite yet, but we are getting there. Our own western democracies are little better. Nobody gets to be president of the United States these days without a lot of money. It is the same all over the world - the privileged classes hold most of the wealth of the western world. And there has been a recent 'economic theory' which says - we are not going to tax us - this small proportion of all of you's because our money is what makes the economic world go around. So the rich are not heavily taxed. Never mind that everybody else are having their houses foreclosed on, are losing their jobs, have a failing social infrastructure.  Wherever there is money these same ‘job provider’s’ are out-sourcing the work anyway to maximise their profits. They are not being taxed so that they can provide goods at a much cheaper price, so that they can give something back to the community that helps sustain them but given this freedom, they act in a way that provides even more for them. There are newspaper and magazine articles addressing these issues but not in a contextual fashion. There is a lack of respect for person in the world today. Those who hold the strings of power appear careless generally of those whose labour they use and of those for whom they provide, whether we are talking goods or services. When I work for you I need to know that what I am doing is what you want. But business and government today has grown very arrogant. Law and regulation are essentially in the community to care for and allow everybody the space and freedom to experience life in the way they need to, to grow in the way they need. What do YOU think is the reason for law and regulation? If my city, Auckland, of going on two million people did away with all parking meters what might happen apart from a loss of revenue? The thing is, the sense is, that councils take my money because they can. And what should be the highest duties that might be placed on a citizen, to give time to city or national affairs!!! So when I hear of very nice thank you salaries and golden handshakes and super cities and I know there are those in my country who have profited very nicely in government and local government positions. And this is your money. I hear of a new corporation and then I see that they have moved into very expensive premises, prime city premises... This is not about respect and civil duty. It is about power over others.

When Britain’s youth rioted for three days or however long it was I thought - here it comes. There are so many stories of fraud perpetuated in seats of power. Whether it's Roman Catholic priests, newspaper moguls! The characters who perpetuated the hacking scandal in British newspapers were bosom buddies of those in government, in the police! And then the Prime Minister spoke of the dereliction of the parents? And, that, mobile phones might be immobilised if it happened again. And he spearheads an austerity program which protects his friends and puts 'his people out of work and out of their homes' and he wonders why they riot. He sees that their actions are not all good but he can't see himself. They are 'his people' because he is the 'Prime Minister', the First Minister, the one that needs to get it right. And now 700 people have been arrested for protesting in New York. About; what? They don't know - but they know that things aren't right.



Countries throughout the world are broke. Pension funds are broke. Town Councils are broke. The only ones who have money aren't taxed because the experts on that part of how life is lived - the Economists say it’s not a good thing and millions of people who should know better believe them. The land has been spoiled - for profit. There are those out there that if they can see a way to turn a buck turn it. And it spoils it for everybody else.



There is a strange anomaly. Cities and nations throughout the world are suffering unusual drought conditions, being devastated by cyclones, tornados, hurricanes, just plain storms. Sea levels are rising, the polar ice is melting, temperatures are rising and everyone is talking global warming and care of the planet and so they should be. But there is more happening that the eye does not see and very few people really try. There is a great deal of solar activity for one but the really interesting bit is that there is this Mayan calendar and then there are all these prophesies from Nostradamus, whom everyone has heard about, Edgar Cayce, the Hopi Indian amongst others. And the talk is all end of the world or is it? It may be end of the world as we know it. There is a little main stream scaremongering from Hollywood and the like but peeling back the layers of the onion reveals something new. We all know how the Church rewarded Galileo when he said that the Earth moved around the Sun? He was made to recant. Well eventually the Church had to move and allow modern science its day. But while this was taking place, before Galileo had time to formulate his new knowledge, Hernan Cortez was on his way to the Yucatan Peninsula, where, on behalf of Spain, he set about with great determination the dismantling of an Empire - the Mayan's - which in the a few artefacts which remain from their civilization; demonstrate a knowledge of the Earth in relation to the heavens far beyond what Galileo had conceived. Because what the Mayan calendar demonstrates is the knowledge that our solar system including our Sun actually orbits over a period of 26,000 years approximately; around what has become referred to as the Galactic Centre; which is essentially the axis on which our whole milky way spins. It is its, our Milky Way’s gravitational Centre. And on 21 December 2012 we are as far from this centre as we ever are during our orbit around it. And that position apparently always produces a change in our climate very similar to what we are experiencing now. So although there is no doubt that our commercial and social practices may not be very good for our home planet, it is the cycle of the earth through the heavens which is causing the unpredictable weather patterns, not the, so called, Global Warming. The evidence from previous cycles suggest that the present warming is the precursor to a more severe cooling of the planet and these events take place over a considerable period of time of which 21 December 2012 is just a marker.

There is more. People often have evinced puzzlement over what happened to the Mayan and talk of the destruction of a civilization. And in a sense that is true and yes it might be a puzzle. But in fact they have not in another sense gone anywhere; because there are Mayan still living who have maintained connection with the knowledge which is being spoken about. And here I would like to speak in more generalised terms. We have what we refer to as the indigenous peoples, by which we mean those who were here first. In my own country, the Maori speak of themselves as the Tangata Whenua which means literally the people inhabiting the land. It is a useful term as a Universal description of this task. That which is indigenous is that which occurs naturally at a particular geographical place. So, there is a relationship between all life. Earth itself, plants trees, animals, people; are all related. So the indigenous have rituals that honour the place of everything. And sickness in this context must be seen as related to one's own person. You don't get sick by getting a virus or having an accident. There is a correlation with being and circumstance or condition and wellness is getting back in synch. So in one sense what is happening to our planet is because of where it is in its galactic cycle. But in another sense it is as it is with its wars and tsunamis and earthquakes and shaking of the its financial markets, and it’s power brokers and those who are downtrodden and those who rise up because this is a little like that moment when the kettle boils and water turns to steam. Anything is now possible and this is our moment. More on another day.
