"The Recalibration of Awareness – Apr 20/21, 2012 (Kryon channeled by Lee Carroll) (Subjects: Old Energy, Recalibration Lectures, God / Creator, Religions/Spiritual systems (Catholic Church, Priests/Nun’s, Worship, John Paul Pope, Women in the Church otherwise church will go, Current Pope won’t do it), Middle East, Jews, Governments will change (Internet, Media, Democracies, Dictators, North Korea, Nations voted at once), Integrity (Businesses, Tobacco Companies, Bankers/ Financial Institutes, Pharmaceutical company to collapse), Illuminati (Started in Greece, with Shipping, Financial markets, Stock markets, Pharmaceutical money (fund to build Africa, to develop)), Shift of Human Consciousness, (Old) Souls, Women, Masters to/already come back, Global Unity.... etc.) - (Text version)

“… 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. …”

Transport Minister Comes Out Swinging, Fires Jakarta Rail Officials

In a show of what can happen when a new sheriff is in town, Indonesia's Minister of Transportation Freddy Numberi has fired two top railway officials for failing to be at their posts when he conducted a surprise inspection at one of Jakarta’s busiest train stations on Monday.

The newly-appointed minister ordered the dismissals of both the chief of Kota station in West Jakarta, Jatun, and his deputy, Suyatno, for failing to be in their offices when he visited.

Ignasius Jonan, the chairman of state-owned railway operator PT Kereta Api, said Freddy had instructed the company to prioritize the quality of its passenger service.

“We appreciate the minister’s decision because Jatun had indeed failed to carry out his responsibilities,” Jonan said.

Jatun was reportedly replaced by the former head of Bekasi station, Rudi Krisno, and moved to Kereta Api’s headquarters in Bandung, where he will handle administrative duties.

Taufik Kurniawan, chairman of the House of Representatives’ Commission V, which oversees transportation affairs, said he supported Freddy’s decision to dismiss the officials for neglecting their duties.

“The absence of a station chief could be dangerous should something bad happen,” he said.

Taufik declined to comment on whether he felt the decision by Freddy was excessive, only saying ministers had different styles of leadership.

“Leadership styles are different from one minister to the next,” he said. “As long as his move was aimed at improving the performance of the transportation industry, we support it.”
