I today came across the “Unify Earth” initiative (URTH), which is planning to organize “History’s largest synchronized gathering” on December 21, 2012: simultaneous TV, internet & mobile streaming, with a duration of 4 to 6 hours live feed from around the world. It is meant to celebrate humanity’s journey through the ages in an epic musical media spectacle that brings fantasy and reality together to inspire a new chapter for human civilization: “URTH is about us – where we’ve been and where we’re going.”

The celebration wants to be a counter-pole against all soothsaying about doomsday prophecies. So the motto is “On December 21, 2012 experience the beginning of a new story for humanity. The End is the Beginning. The hero is you.”

Among the founding team is Violaine Corradi, one of the three main composers at Cirque du Soleil.

People from all around the world are stepping up to become a part of the unify earth movement. Quotes of current featured luminaries:

“There are a lot of negative prophecies about 2012… but prophecy is questionable. I think the future is what we make it to be.” (Sting)

“Outside of Fear… A Moment in Timelessness.” (Carlos Santana)

“Currently, there is an emphasis in our consciousness that places the highest regard on money, competition, and materialism. Maybe we can open our minds to consider and realize other models and ideas focusing on the whole of our planet, enabling us to move forward, in a way that is beneficial to all of us.” (Rob Garza, Thievery Corporation)

I added the Circle of Good Will on the map of this inspiring global initiative. – You can join as an individual, an organisation or as a host of a get-together on December 21, 2012

A friend sent me this nice story, which started with: “Don’t let the “Nay”Sayers hold you back.”

Once upon a time there was a bunch of tiny frogs….who arranged a running competition. The goal was to reach the top of a very high tower. A big crowd had gathered around the tower to see the race and cheer on the contestants….

The race began…. Honestly: No one in crowd really believed that the tiny frogs would reach the top of the tower. You heard statements such as:

“Oh, WAY too difficult!!” “They will NEVER make it to the top.” “Not a chance that they will succeed. The tower is too high!”

The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one…. Except for those, who in a fresh tempo, were climbing higher and higher….The crowd continued to yell, ”It is too difficult!!! No one will make it!”

More tiny frogs got tired and gave up….

But ONE continued higher and higher and higher…. This one wouldn’t give up!

At the end everyone else had given up climbing the tower. Except for the one tiny frog who, after a big effort, was the only one who reached the top!

THEN all of the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to know how this one frog managed to do it?

A contestant asked the tiny frog how he had found the strength to succeed and reach the goal?

It turned out…. That the winner was DEAF!!!!

The wisdom of this story is: Never listen to other people’s tendencies to be negative or pessimistic….because they take your most wonderful dreams and wishes away from you — the ones you have in your heart!

Always think of the power words have. Because everything you hear and read will affect your actions!

Therefore: ALWAYS be….POSITIVE!

And above all: Be DEAF when people tell YOU that you cannot fulfil your dream, but always be welcoming to listen to and accept sound advise.
“Achievers never expose themselves but their achievements expose them.”

On July 24, 2010, thousands of people around the world recorded videos of their lives on YouTube to take part in “Life in a Day”, a cinematic experiment to document a single day on earth. From all the material – more than 4,500 hours of footage – Oscar-winning director Kevin Macdonald and executive producer Ridley Scott created a 90-minute feature film that offers an entertaining, surprising and moving view of life on earth.

After having been presented on different festivals “Life in a Day” is now available for free with subtitles in 25 languages (here is the one with German subtitles). More information on the Lifeinaday-Channel.

The 7 November is the 66th birthday of K. Parvathi Kumar and it is celebrated each year as the Day of Good Will. The Circle of Good Will, Switzerland, is inspired by the Circle of Good Will he founded in 1985.

As a little inspiration about goodwill work you find here a short extract on the global Good Will work and the service of Hierarchy, from my notes of the seminar on Cosmogenesis by Sri Kumar, January 2006, and a picture on the power of good will:

“So the groups are getting universal. You can’t create these groups, they have been prepared over centuries and they come again. We move in groups. Most of those who are in the groups have been in the groups of HPB. The masters are building a group who is not in the world, but works for the world. In all fields, social, health, economy, it is a global goodwill work. All those who have deep goodwill do this work, and the work will happen. That is the grand work done consciously or unconsciously. More and more great beings come to you. Think global, act local. Global thought you have to work out with such an intent to get it out….

As per the maintenance of the body, in yoga practice the body is also important for goodwill work. Every disciple is responsible for his body to be well kept. The masters like Kuthumi, Morya, Djwhal Khul, St. Germain, they are all outstanding in keeping their bodies shining, but none of them is equal to Lord Maitreya. You don’t find any kind of old age or sickness in his perfect body that exists on the physical plane. The Lord, wherever he goes, whatever his feet touch, the places get instantly sanctified. That is the beauty of the Masters. Even if they move away, their vibration remains there. The houses they visit get sanctified. They become centres for pilgrimage. In fact the Lord Maitreya only moves to sanctified places. It is only to sanctify the place where he moves to. All the yogis of the Himalaya and those who live around the sacred river Ganga always worshipped Lord Maitreya. During the dawn hours, we need to recollect all the great beings who work for our upliftment, especially Lord Maitreya.

Think of your master, his master, his master, the seven seers, then the pole star, then invoke the sons of mind, the sons of yoga. Immediately after the Kumaras we think of Lord Maitreya and the Hierarchy. They need to be invoked on a regular basis in the morning and evening hours. He blesses light to humanity in this postures (Sri Kumar shows the hands downward in a giving posture like in some pictures of Jesus) during the morning and evening hours. We may not be conscious of the support he gives until we gain the corresponding state. Even the yogis think of the Lord in the morning and evening hours, one of the most sublime beings that exist on the planet. He is ever ready to be a servant of the servers. He helps the groups who serve. He remains very obedient to the true servers, all members of Hierarchy are very obedient to true servers, true disciples. A server is one who has divinity in his heart and serves the world with an attitude that the world is no other than the form of the Lord. When everyone is served in this manner, only the Lord is served. Thus the Lord remains readily available for men.”

Extract of a picture I painted in August 1988, on the Power of Good Will

Many groups focus on the 11-11-11 for a joint meditation effort to lift up humanity. 24 September Sri Kumar wrote to me: “Please send the following to all. ’11-11-11 is a very important day. It is considered so by the Hierarchy. Please invoke the entire Hierarchy and stand in Their Light’.”

Some days ago I got the following appeal forwarded from a site called Evolutionary Leaders – in Service to Conscious Evolution, where they also launch an appeal for a world-wide meditation for Oneness, and evolutionary leap in consciousness. The have created “Global Care Rooms” where you can see where other participants are located through a beautiful representation of our Earth.

The appeal further says:
“Countless individuals around the world share the belief that humanity’s next evolutionary leap will be achieved by collectively serving conscious evolution. They support the need to build a global community, restore ecological balance and encourage social transformation that optimizes human potential. Let us together reflect upon our own individual and collective part of the evolutionary process. …
11-1-11 Meditation Intention: Our intention is to transcend superficial differences that divide us – race, religion, politics, beliefs, culture – to acknowledge, experience and honor the essential bond that unites us all as one interdependent organism.

We also intend to evolve in both consciousness and action so that each of us learns to perceive the whole, relate to others in wholeness, widen our definition of ‘we’ to be all inclusive and become evolutionary leaders for a peaceful, holistic, sustainable world.”

“The Blessing” – extract from a painting done in February 1987

Since the centre of WTT-Global in Einsiedeln, Switzerland will be dissolved in a few weeks – life lead the members who lived there to other places – I agreed to take all the books (English and German) to our home, while a member of our group will take care of the book orders. So yesterday I went to Einsiedeln to fetch the books.

The morning started with a glowing dawn, but later on the highway fog gathered and nearly the whole ride the weather was very grey.  When I took the way up the mountain to Einsiedeln, the clouds opened and a beautiful clear sky showed up.

In the centre there were already some boxes filled with books, and some more to be packed.

I first went around to take some final pics of the rooms which since February 2006 had served as headquarters.

The outside of the building – not very attractive to me, but I liked the inner side.

A friend from the group then came and helped me packing the books and I took a TV for her into my car.

When both cars were filled, we did a good-bye meditation in the room where I had had several talks with Sri Kumar over the last years and where the executive board had often met.

It was a silent adieu, I won’t see the rooms again, and they will soon be emptied, and a family with 3 children will live there.

Afterwards I drove a bit around the nearby lake Sihlsee and visited friends, a couple living nearby on a mountain. It was a hearty exchange. The sun was hot like in summer.

Back home again I carried the heavy boxes into our basement, emptied them and arranged the books on the shelves.

The whole journey made me think of the story in HPB’s Secret Doctrine, where there is a narrative how, at the end of a creation a certain group of beings, the Shisya, transport the seeds of wisdom through the dissolution state called Pralaya to a new creation…. I asked myself how the many good and inspiring books might find their ways to seekers who could make a good use of them. For the moment they slumber in the basement of our home. Time will show how things will work out. Always after a sunset and a night a new dawn will come.

Sunday evening we entered into the month of Scorpio, a most profound sign. When thinking of how to visualise its energies I reflected on its qualities, and then saw photos of the burning oil platform “Deepwater Horizon” which has sank last year in the Gulf of Mexico – an emblematic signal of Scorpionic qualities. In Spiritual Astrology Master EK says: “Secrecy is the key-note of the sign. Oil mines and hidden treasures are linked up with Scorpio. Wherever there is no possibility for the sunshine to enter and wherever there is constant darkness, there is the influence of Scorpio.”

And then he continued mentioning toxic substances being ruled by Scorpio and said: “Disappearance is the activity of this sign and the house. The disappearance of the light of the soul, through a gradual fall into matter-state is the process that occurs here. Suspension of consciousness, due to the predominance of the material plane on the higher planes is the activity. Death, loss of consciousness, fainting and coma are caused by the influence of this sign.”

The form of the divine Mother related to Scorpio is Kali, and so I searched for representations of Kali which would fit with the picture of the sinking oil platform. There was one drawing which fitted perfectly. So I started working on the picture. I first arranged the details in Photoshop, then printed it on paper and continued with working on details and colours. Afterwards I scanned the picture and worked on further details of the composition. The last step is printing the image on paper and readjusting the colours to increase the intensity to its maximum. It takes several prints until I’m satisfied with the outcome. When I was painting in the 80ies I was always trying to get most intense luminous colours, but it wasn’t possible due to the materials I had. Now, with the digital processing the pictures get a strong radiance.

The painting “Scorpio – The Dark Mother and the Consequences of Blindness” shows extreme contrasts – The fire-fighting vessels in front of the burning oil platform, then, in the fire, the Goddess Kali appearing in the dark circle, holding a caduceus topped by a skull. The destructions only touch the outer form, the inner truth remains. Man, however, trying to get the grip on the consequences of his greed, looses the game he started. Scorpio teaches through deep transformations transiting through death to a higher plane of understanding. May man learn through the self-generated catastrophes to respect nature and to cooperate with it instead of exploiting. You can see the picture also in the gallery “Images of Synthesis” and download a high-resolution version.

Last Sunday I was in Oberägeri, in central Switzerland near the beautiful Ägeri lake. Anton Styger  had invited for the baptism of his new CDs on “Liberation from old patterns of suffering” and “Meditations and Soul Journeys“. I had made his acquaintance last month at a seminar on healing near the Lake of Constance and bought his books afterwards.

My wife and I were very impressed by them, they opened the doors to a deeper understanding of the subtle worlds and how to help people to liberate from karmic patterns, foreign spirit influences or to help departed ones who got stuck in the border regions to the physical world. Anton, being highly clairvoyant since his early childhood, has done a lot of liberation work and discovered through his journeys that millions of departed souls got stuck in the nether regions of the subtle worlds. This happens when people suddenly die, in accidents or in wars, and don’t realise that they are dead and don’t believe in a life after death. Their mental structures create for them the surrounding they have constructed themselves during life time, and so they are stuck in their patterns. Others got stuck because they realised after departing that they had hurt others and keep on trying to change something, without having the means for it. And many who died through wrong living, drugs or excessive kinds of living, are also caught in the cobweb of their desires. And the churches haven’t been of help, ignoring reincarnation and the planes of the worlds beyond.

Anton is working since years to help people to understand the subtle causes of suffering, and many came to him because they were at their wits’ end, also the graduated “specialists” in the fields of healing and psychology. In the last years he stopped with individual interventions, since the requests went into hundreds and thousands, and so he is now teaching groups and giving seminars.

At the CD baptism last Sunday about 100 persons had assembled in the hall. Anton and his soul mate Antonie came and greeted most of the people present. We had a short exchange and I told him that I would like to clear with him a point which had preoccupied me for a while. He said that after the lecture he would take some time.

He then spoke for half an hour, here are some thoughts of his talk:

“We all have brought our problems with us, but the good elements are also there. When we suffer we connect ourselves at the same time with the collective suffering of the world, and this can be very intense. We might feel pain which isn’t ours, and we should in no case identify with the suffering personality parts. As a spirit we connect with the true love, but never with the negative energies, we have to mark ourselves off immediately. When we go into suffering and don’t insulate ourselves, we easily get loaded with negative energies from the astral worlds.

With the help of prayers and rituals we can liberate ourselves from patterns of suffering. Many have the experience that the strains then go away quickly. But afterwards you have to continue with a constructive liberation work to dissolve the patterns, so that you get free from them and don’t take them with you through the whole life and thereafter. Nothing goes away by itself, also the impressions from previous lives. The CD show how to also dissolve feelings of guilt and rejections. We have taken over many opinions from the parents, grand parents and the like, but we have to be with ourselves. When we want to come to the source of life, we have to swim against the stream.”

Afterwards Anton presented the persons who helped him producing the CDs and then “baptised” them by sprinkling some water and speaking a beautiful prayer, invoking the Divine and the angels to help people finding help through these teachings.

Afterwards a little band started playing and people were invited celebrating the occasion with cakes and coffee… Many came and talked to Anton, I waited for a while until he found a moment for me. We went into a side-room where we spoke about my question. He took his tensor and measured with it some questions relating a situation connected with previous life events. He gave me some indications which were of a great relief.

When driving home I had a very peaceful feeling, having now closed the last chapter of a long story.

Even ad-agencies of insurance companies make now posters visualising beings of subtle worlds –  from a just running ad-campaign, at the main road of our village.
