"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. …”

New energy car promotion continues in China

 The first expressway charging network located between Beijing and Shanghai was inaugurated on Jan. 15 and additional policy measures are expected to be introduced this year to promote the use of new energy cars, state news agency Xinhua reports.

China saw sales of new energy cars jump 3.2 times to 74,800 in 2014 compared with the data recorded in 2013, of which over 60% were purchased for private use, Xinhua said.

The news agency cited Industry and Information Technology minister Miao Yu, who said that the faster launch of the new models of new energy cars reflected the growing confidence of the local auto companies.

SAIC Motor vice president Wang Xiaobo noted that the company had invested more than 6 billion yuan (US$967 million) in new energy vehicles between 2009 and 2014 because of a series of policy incentives offered by the government.

In addition, Beijing Automotive Industry Holding chairman Xu Heyi said that his company had established two production bases for new energy cars and plans to introduce a model that can run up to 400 kilometers on a single charge in 2016.

Volkswagen Group China CEO Jochem Heizmann said that the growth in sales reflected the effectiveness of the Chinese government's new energy car policy and subsidies.

Director of the Economic Construction Department of the Ministry of Finance Zeng Xiao'an said that the fiscal support for the next phase of new energy car development will be published as soon as possible. Zeng added that the subsidies for conventional vehicles will be reduced.

Sources told Xinhua that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development plan to include the addition of an electric vehicle charging facility as a requirement for all new housing projects.

Auto industry insiders said that the steep decrease in oil prices, which has now fallen below US$50 per barrel, may lead to slower sales of new energy cars in 2015.

Experts are also said that China lags behind in fuel cell production and charging infrastructure despite the 712 charging stations and 28,900 charging poles built around the country.

Helen Xu, the China automotive head at Germany's Infineon Technologies, predicted that China may record sales of more than 100,000 new energy cars in 2015, surpassing the United States.
