World Events  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
John Davis

The world has been having many new events: earthquakes, wars, tsunamis, and storms of all kinds. I am asked often what I think of these things and what they mean to our future, and are they fulfilling prophecies? First I would like to say that I am not a follower of prophecy nor do I predict futures.

 

As for the natural disasters, consider this: the world has been here far longer than we have. In fact, in the grand scheme of it all we are the new arrival. Scientists can find evidence of past meteor strikes, dramatic earthquakes, volcanic eruptions of incredible magnitude, huge tidal waves and floods, and more devastating events that have affected the earth. Can you do something about it?  Maybe, maybe not, but one thing is certain: holding onto the fear of such events does two things. First, it makes for a really hard life of fear. Secondly, if you believe that your thought is creative, then you are calling those things toward you.

 

I feel sorrow for those that have passed in these disasters. It must have been a terrifying experience. They are now embraced in unconditional love and separate from any anxiety they felt. If they could tell us anything, what would it be? I believe they would tell us what all the avatars of old have told us: "Love one another," "Be the change you want to see in the world," "Dwell not upon tomorrow."   

 

We each live our lives balancing our love and our fear. When the scale tips in any direction that is the experience we draw to us. Live today with an optimistic eye towards the creation of tomorrow. Appreciate what you have in the here and now. Be Love and Love will surround you. I believe that in being love we can truly affect the world as a whole. That is why I do the Healing Earth Meditation.

 

Wars are man's ultimate manifestation of fear. Fears erupt and we address them. When fearful acts are done to another, people react and perpetuate the fear. In reacting in a different way, a more loving way, miracles happen. Mahatma Gandhi was an amazing individual. His non-violent approach defeated the British Empire. He became a non-violent opposition to violence and proved that the loving approach to all was more powerful than the fearful one.

 

Many battles are raging in the world today. When we all come together in a united cause we tend to show our love and affect greater matters. While these wars were waging, Japan was devastated by a natural disaster. Seventy-five nations from around the world gathered together in assistance. More people joined forces on the earth than at any time in modern history to help. As these wars wind down, that loving embrace needs to be carried to those places as well. We have had the major disaster that unites us - let us not forget it and instead carry it forward to create the future of our dreaming. As Gandhi has said," Be the change you wish to see in the world."

I do not believe in war. I believe in peace. I do not believe in hate. I believe in love.

Book Review:The Vachanamrut
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 This book, a spiritual discourse with Bhagwan Swaminarayan, was a very important part of my journey. His teachings mirror that of Jeshua and many other master teachers. For me the stories and answers he gave verified a lot of my own personal beliefs and simplified a lot of conflicts between the various sacred texts. I found truth within the pages and found my life easier for having read it. It comes from a Hindu perspective, yet when the cultural differences are pulled away great truth stands clear to see. I highly recommend that if you are on a spiritual journey, you take the time to read the Vachanamrut and find the parts that ring true to your heart.
