… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

Jakarta Plans 'Protest Park' to Ease Traffic Mayhem

Fed up with protests snarling Jakarta’s already chaotic traffic, the authorities in one of the world’s most congested cities plan to build a park dedicated to keeping public demonstrations off the streets.

The park is also a sign that democracy has taken hold in Indonesia, when demonstrations were almost out of the question during the 32-year rule of autocratic former President Suharto until public frustration with his leadership led to mass protests in the late 1990s that eventually drove him from power.

Since then, colourful and noisy demonstrations have become a common occurence in Indonesia. While they are seldom violent, these protests can sometimes make the capital’s already bad traffic even worse, especially when activists march around a landmark roundabout near Hotel Indonesia.

Jakarta Governor Fauzi Bowo now wants to build a speaker’s corner, with room for 10,000 people, near Indonesia’s National Monument, spokesman Cucu Ahmad Kurnia told Reuters on Tuesday.

“We want to make it so everybody has a place to speak their mind, and so they know the right place to do that,” said Kurnia.

The Presidential Palace, the Vice President’s office and the Governor’s office are within close range of the monument, in the centre of Merdeka Square.

The protests make getting around Indonesia’s sprawling capital and suburbs, home to some 14 million people, even more time-consuming and arduous as they add to the traffic jams caused by rising motorcycle and car ownership, as well as heavy flooding during the rainy season.

Bowo last year banned rallies around the Hotel Indonesia after clashes between opposing demonstrators.

The park, which Kurnia said will be completed some time next year, would also be equipped with a stage for concerts.

The mayor of Jakarta, Sylviana Murni, said it was the government’s responsibility to allocate an area for people to criticise those in power.

“We must do that for our people to be satisfied,” she told Reuters, adding that the inspiration had come from the famous Speaker’s Corner in Hyde Park, London.
