… 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. …

Angry Chinese buyer smashes a Tesla over delayed delivery

Yu Xinquan, one of the 31 Chinese buyers of Tesla's Model S, smashed a Tesla car at the automaker's maintenance station in the Beijing suburb of Yizhuang on Friday to vent his anger on the carmarker's delayed delivery, reports Guangzhou's 21st Century Business Herald.

Yu had paid a 250,000 yuan (US$40,000) deposit like other buyers of the Model S in October last year. Prior to the expected delivery date in April this year, he filed a complaint after he found he was not one of the first group of buyers who would take delivery of the car. Tesla CEO Elon Musk promised some protesting buyers that their cars would be delivered in eight weeks.

However, Yu received a notice from Tesla China on June 18 that his car had been confiscated by customs authorities in Tianjin over problems with the documents. Tesla had to bring the consignment of cars back to the United States and submit the paperwork again, a process taking three weeks. The buyers will thus not receive their cars until next month.

The buyers have also become angry after Tesla backtracked on promises to instal charging devices. Previously, the automaker said it would provide the device, worth US$1,200, for the buyers for free. A third-party company trained by Tesla would install the devices on the cars and the buyers would only need to pay for the installation. Tesla staff would drive the cars to the nearest charging station to make sure the installation was completed successfully. Buyers from Shanghai and Beijing, however, would have to install the charging devices by themselves.

However, in early June, Tesla China chief Wu Bixuan said buyers from outside the two cities had agreed to install the device on their own. Their cars would clear customs soon and be delivered, Wu said.

When Yu was informed that his car was stuck in customs, he agreed to take instead the car that has been on displayed in China, which Tesla said is brand new. However, Yu went to the showroom and smashed the car instead, telling the 21st Century Business Herald that he would never accept a second-hand vehicle.

He accused Tesla of failing to deliver his car at the earliest opportunity or deliver his car in six weeks after the automaker apologized, install charging devices for the 31 buyers as promised and provide limited-edition plates. Yu said Tesla has also put the phone numbers of protesting buyers on a black list and refuses to offer them services.
