Let the World cry when you die (2, Black Elk)

Ancient Indian Proverb

When you were born, you cried
and the world rejoiced.
Live your life
so that when you die,
the world cries and you rejoice.

Actually, this is not really necessary.
White Elk has been a great personality on earth and is now in the spiritual world  a great spiritual leader.
He brings us this message:

You cried when you were born and the world rejoiced at your birth.
Let the world cry, when you die, as proof for how much love you have brought to the earth.
You'll in the spiritual world then rejoice yourself in your life.

And do know if a man has lived well, the spiritual world as well will rejoice Itself.
And do know if a man has not lived well, the spiritual world will cry.
For no sparrow is falling of the roof,  or God will know it.

Won’t your deeds of love and hate not been seen by the spiritual world as well?
If you show a deed of love, the heart of the cosmos will jump up out of joy.
If you show a deed of hate, the heart of the cosmos will weep bitter tears.

My blessings to you all

 

For I was seeing in a sacred manner (1, Black Elk)

And while I stood there
I saw more than I can tell,
and I understood more than I saw;
for I was seeing in a sacred manner
the shapes of things in the spirit,
and the shape of all shapes as they must
live together like one being.

Black Elk, Black Elk Speaks

Why do not you first say something for yourself ?

Oh, if You want to.
It really touches me.
As I 'm more in touch with You and can hear Your voice, I find myself very gradually getting more attention for the sanctity and unity of life.
Everything is so grand and beautiful, and it's nice to see how people can be happy and are enjoying life completely, full of joy and confidence.
The love for my fellow men can really touch me.

And I see more than before the vulnerability of men, and how they struggle and are sometimes desperately trying to be happy and how terriblely alone they are in their difficulties and vulnerability. Sometimes I can hardly endure their suffering .
And when I am personally really confronted in my surroundings with great sorrow, then You seems to be far away, Your wisdom, Your blogs and Your inspiration. Then I am one with this suffering and I am suffering as well and feeling nothing anymore. Ah, how worthless I am then!
Well, something like that.

The loneliness of earthly mortals is indeed great, My son, all alone in a cold universe, struggling with life, with fears and difficulties. A lonely mortal under a tree, and the world full of danger.

The loneliness of Christ in the garden of Gethsemane was the biggest.
Fortunately you all have God, with Its Presence, with Its promise, with Its help, with Its endless patience, with Its energy, with Its survival plan for eternity for you.
And when eternity shows up in the end, all mortals will experience how the problems are disappearing  like snow in summer.

Where first snow and ice and cold and strong wind were occurring, then spring is breaking through by a warm sun, the trees are becoming green, animals are getting life lust, then only joy of live is there. And the problems are gone , dissolved forever.
And so it will be for you all.
It is the promise of the resurrection of Christ, it is the promise of the Spirit. It is your destiny. It will make good your difficult start. The joy of eternity will solve the difficulties of earthly life.

“for I was seeing in a sacred manner                                                             
the shapes of things in the spirit”

And please do catch an occasional gleam of eternity, be comforted sometimes by the beauty of life, do pick up an occasional glimpse of the spiritual world, do experience occasionally the spiritual unity of all life on earth.
Get hope: it is possible, there are people who have experienced eternity on earth and are seeing and getting evidence and are not doubting anymore.

Seek and ye shall find, ask and ye shall receive.

My blessing to you all

Whatever we do to others, we do to ourselves (Chief Seattle)

Humankind has not woven the web of life.
We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
All things are bound together.
All things connect.

Chief Seattle, 1854

Why do not you go first for yourself into it ?
I see you are having something on your mind.

Yes, My God, You are really having good eyes.
You have already often explained justice exists, everything is connected, what you do in life, will come back to you. Once.
But this once. That’s too long for me.

A man mistreating a woman, he should be mistreated the same day.
Or someone throwing garbage in nature, it should be great he experienced the same night this garbage has polluted the sheets of his own bed. And so on.
Endlessly one can continue making mistakes out of free will, pollute the surroundings, torture or being cruel before the correction comes.

Check Hitler, he was able to continue with his cronies for 10 years and in the meantime the Jewish race was massacred, innocent old women snatched from their armchairs and gassed. That can not be so. The punishment, the vengeance, the rectification, the repercussions of devilish behavior  are taking too long for me. Well that was what I had on my mind.

Let it be said.
From the perspective of man everything takes endlessly long, too long and should really happen at the same time, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Today murdering, tomorrow be murdered, as you describe it.

From God's perspective this is the case.
Because a murderer killing thirty years long, and experiencing after his death for 40 years the horrific consequences of his actions, in solitude and with physical suffering,  going through hell for 10 more years out of regret and remorse for what he has done on earth, then recovering for 20 years and becoming a loving helper in the spiritual world, these 100 " earthy" years are happening from God's perspective in a split second.

For God is billions of years interfering with these ( and other ) planets, half a million years with the human evolution, for 30.000 years with human civilization, for 200 years with overpopulation and pollution.
To God are the moment the killer for the first time stabbing his victim and the moment he has become a loving, spiritual helper and paid back all his debts and faults and shortcomings one single moment.

The moment the murderer stabs, God sees all this, at a glance:

• the suffering the murderer is creating for himself , before and after his death
• all preceded in this derailed and battered life of the murderer
• the life experiences for the others enduring this murder, both the victim and the beloved ones: much good things are involved if one is experiencing grief and when their soul by the suffering became liberated from unimportant things and small worries
• how society is reacting on this murder, and as much the society is spiritual and civilized, as much one is focused on the victim inside the offender.

The material world has its own laws, developed within the laws of God , and where man is only seeing overflow the bucket,  God sees who and what in the long-term were filling up this bucket and the blossom after all receiving this flooding water. Where you only see the moment of horror and where you are feeling indignation about the perpetrator, God sees the web woven around the perpetrator and victim, the web which is woven by the whole society.

“All things are bound together. All things connect”

Therefore, I ask you :

• Did Hitler commit his acts alone or together with his people? Did he just deport alone all Jews, or was he helped by the municipalities and the police in the occupied villages?
• Has a man who throws garbage in nature, done this alone, or has he been spoiled and superficially raised and is he living in a society of materialism and greed?
• Is the man who is mistreating a fellow man on the street, not often for himself mistreated by his father, or boys from his neighborhood, and did his teachers guide him sufficiently to overcome his lousy upbringing?
• Is the extinction of species not partly caused by shutting one’s eyes for the consequences, and so fouling one’s own nest.

And finally don’t all people, all societies, all offenders, all events have to get time to make things right,  to come to learn from the events,  to understand everything and above all have to get time to unlearn things?

Are you, My son, not just impatient?
For do know it literally happens the way you want: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
But firstly: this does not seem to happen in your earthly time terms, but from a spiritual perspective the correction indeed takes place immediately.
And secondly: this is done with love and understanding for earthly human development and for the free will. And this free will is needing a little more time than you may realize.

My blessings to you all

We are living in an era of social love ( Luc Ferry)

The French philosopher Luc Ferry* is speaking of the revolution of love, which has been going on a couple of centuries, especially in the western world. He describes the change of the marriage of convenience into a marriage of love. He describes how the first humanism: room for thinking is making room for the second humanism: room for social services, the neighbors, voluntary work. He is speaking of how the attention for our own family is making room for the focus on fellowmen. He even says Europe has become the cradle of this love. He seems to be a new prophet of hope. Does he have a point ? I am asking this as well because my country is in the eyes of some countries, a land of decadence. I don’t think we deserve this?
Would you like to comment on this?

I would like to comment on this.
In this world of crisis and pollution, pessimism and apostasy, of stock exchanges raping human standards, Luc Ferry is saying: mankind can have hope, man has developed love in an higher level, especially in Western countries.

What these Western countries have been doing in the rest of the world,  how they have become rich in poor countries, how dominantly they have imposed their will, out of pride and arrogance is a subject for another blog.

But for now I say: Western society has built a network of facilities for vulnerable, unemployed and poor fellowmen. One has protected disenfranchised by laws, one heals the sick and houses the elderly against cold and hunger.

These societies have understood the message of Christ very well. They put into practice what Christ impressed on man:

" You have visited the sick, you visited Me. You helped the poor, you have helped Me, because what you do the least of Mines, you do to Me"

In fundamentalist Christian circles, for example, one thinks the Netherlands is a country of Sodom and Gomorrah. With her free prostitution, her gay marriage, her mild sentences, her policy on drugs, on euthanasia and abortion. It seems to be a horrible country.
But We in the spiritual world have a different perspective. This country has blown up some taboos, and has created by trial and error a loving society, with the least number in the world of unwanted pregnancies of young girls, not by abortion but by good information on contraceptives, where men no longer dominate women, where a  gruesome dying may choose a gentle death. The country with the most volunteers in the world taking care of strangers with a charity, in the rest of the world only practiced within the family. 

Luc Ferry has a legitimate message. Independent and free thinking through education and political freedom, social services and good laws , and a severe attitude on corruption have made the Netherlands into a land of milk and honey, and from Our perspective a cradle of love and respect for fellowmen and for the free will.

" You have visited the sick, you visited Me. You helped the poor, you have helped Me, because what you do the least of Mines, you dot to Me. "

Luc Ferry is calling Europe a cradle of new love and speaks of a revolution of love. The Scandinavian countries and the Netherlands are in this matter guiding countries in the world. Countries of hope and love. Indeed  a promise for mankind.

Luc Ferry may be blessed, his writings may be blessed, his readers may be blessed.

My blessings to you all
