Haiti - the Pearl of the Caribean

Haiti - the Pearl of the Caribean

This is my comment to an article in Times online that gives some historical context to the current plight of Haiti. I read this 'historical' context as reflection of an ongoing current deception - and I comment towards awakening to the deception and thus being restored to loving truth.
The fault line in Haiti runs straight to France




Haiti is a portent and a forerunner for us all. Blame is NOT required to understand that a deception engaged as if for private gain - costs not just the awareness of soul - but undermines our common wealth.

To re-embrace a spirit of inclusion is to CHANGE the mind out of which we operate. The needs are not pawns in a blame game or a search for justice, they are felt in the heart in desire of life, love and freedom from fear's tyranny.

Little steps in willingness are not only helpful to a situation, they are helpful in releasing the mind of the crippling tyranny of fear that blinkers vision and binds us to our own deceptions. Use all things to teach the mind to better recognise - and so to release - deception.

Blame is itself a deception device. The tectonic plates of human beliefs are moving - Where to find truth? By letting the Ground of you, speak to that which has been lost in the surface. This is so - whatever our human experience brings.

The impulse to live in freedom comes from a deeper place than human thought - it is the desire of the heart to share life. To share love. And it can not REALLY go away as it is innate. But not on my (or your) private terms!

The BBC on God and disasters - again

The BBC on God and disasters - again

I've seen it before on BBC news site. After a calamity - in this case the earthquake in Haiti - they run a story like "how can God allow such things to happen". A bit of philosophy and a couple of churchpeople's quotes.
Why does God allow natural disasters?
I decided to add my comment - to see if in a nutshell I could put anything forth that might suggest a different way of seeing. But as the presumptions of self and world are already so unquestioned, I don't know that I can in fact say anything that can make any sense to those who haven't begun to awaken. But below is what I wrote.


Human interpretations of Creation, (God-being-all-that-is) have made up and believed a self and world experience that - at its root - expresses a separation from the intimacy that feels and knows and is the oneness of Creation.

The lens of this separate sense is so fundamental to human experience, that very few realize it is a deception - and fewer still awaken from it. However, to see the presence of love - and to be the presence of love - realigns our experience with unconflicted Truth.

Rather than mythologise God to fit human fancy - why not ask in the stillness of the heart - what is the truth here? - and be guided to act from a connected sense of the desire of your own heart revealed?

Love inspires miracles - or shifts into alignment with a Living Truth whose nature is evidenced here and now - not in another world.

So yes I am saying that what we call life, the world, our self can be seen in an entirely fresh Perspective. 'Adam's sin' was a sleep of judgement.

Nightmares can become a goad to waking - but so can a dream of a life without really sharing love.
Compassion is willingness to encompass - include - identify with the Spirit in your brother and the world we share.
