I grew up in the Middle East and made my home there until a few years ago when I left (for good I thought). Since then I have lived in many places, none of which felt like home. I feel as if I have turned my back on my country and my people, but the decisions made by those in power today instill great fear and disagreement within me. I know that you abhor war and would prefer to address a more uplifting subject, but please Gaia, speak about war and about the Middle East. I very much need to find my courage, my heart and my home . . .
Name & Address Withheld
My heart in this regard is as heavy as your own, perhaps more. I offer myself to humanity unconditionally now and always. In order to address this question fully we must consider the spirit and vibration with which it has been asked. Be prepared to allow adjustments in your vibrational field for these more than words spoken will both heal and cure. Be prepared to empty your heart and then fill it again and you will find that there is ample room for decisions that must be made.
Age-Old Battles Continue
Battles will continue to rage in this region; individual against individual, sect against sect, country against country and religion against religion. It is the age old battle of the less than righteous seeking to become more than righteous. These battles provide no spoils and no victors, only undeclared losers, martyrs and followers of sorrow. The battles are no more than thought forms given exposure in an unstable reality; arcade games whose flashing lights and sounds create spellbinding effects that make participants forget all else until it is time to deposit more coins in the slot in order to continue the game. Over time this phenomenon has created distorted truths that rule over divinity. These distorted energies are dense but invisible, and because this geographic area has been a hotbed of discord for aeons of time, they walk among those who make their home there just as if they were physical beings though in fact they are not.
The Middle East region is densely populated with these thought forms. They are energetic patterns without hearts or minds. They exist because thoughts created them and thoughts continue to direct them. They attach themselves to other energies which makes them more dense and ensures their survival. Positive energies are of no interest to these energies because their wholeness or lightness makes it difficult for them to attach and therefore survive. It is much easier for them to lodge themselves within negative energies because their force and direction is most like their own. The presence of these thoughtless thought forms proliferates violence.
It is thoughtless to take the life of another, but this is forgotten when unconsciousness yields to thoughtlessness. Unconscious thoughts engage and enrage those who do not yet hear or heed their own heart. Unconscious battles serve unyielding enemies whose only gain is unrelenting resentment and retaliation. Alignment with these thought forms brings a steady chain of new, unseen and unproven adversaries. Thoughts without bodies or souls lodge themselves where closed hearts and minds exist, forming strongholds and barriers that lead to thoughtless actions and deeds. Heavy chains bind those who are compelled to acts of violence by unconsciousness; they are to be pitied, assisted and lifted whenever possible rather than thrown to the ravages that already rage within them or discarded and dismissed from possibilities that are open to all beings. There is a loving place within my heart for all beings and for the choices they make and the same is true of you. Find that place within you and you will also find my sentience and that which is All That Is. This is the home you are searching for; an appropriate physical one will not be found until this one is acknowledged first.
How is it that the value of a human life has become so small, and if that indeed is the case, what then is greater in value? Land. Not just any land, this land. Ancient earth resplendent in both historic importance and future perspective. Hidden deep within what appears to be a regional conflict replete with age old disputes over religion and ownership are agendas whose origins lie elsewhere. On the surface there seems little to be gained, the area itself is arid and some consider it a desert wasteland. The sands of time continue to shift, but in the long run it is still only sand. Why battle for a postage stamp piece of land with few resources to yield? Because the treasure is not the real estate, but in what lies beneath it.
Historic Perspective
Afghanistan's caves were recently featured in the world's spotlight stage. This strange and intricate network was investigated and later destroyed when a search for a presumed outlaw criminal did not result in his capture. These caves and the network that hosts them are older than human civilization. They were formed at the direction of those who first came to earth. These visitors were accustomed to living both above and beneath the surface of their own home world and they thought it odd that earth had not been similarly prepared. They were familiar with the instability of young planets and the erratic weather patterns they often produced. The longevity of their species had helped them to become excellent engineers and geothermal scientists. They understood the properties of most of the elements they encountered upon the earth because they had already traveled the universe extensively prior to their arrival.
The Middle East did not look then as it does today. It was rich in soil and vegetation and the climate was mild in comparison to other parts of the globe. These visitors did not simply happen onto this land by chance. They surveyed many different areas and then chose the area you call the Middle East as the primary base from which they would come and go. For a long time their visits consisted of scientific experiments and studies. They came and went from the earth, returning to their laboratory ship in the sky as often as possible. Eventually they found what they were looking for but it proved more difficult to obtain than they had originally thought. An extended stay was agreed upon and their earth base was expanded. In order to ensure their safety and that of their equipment they excavated the earth by means of a technology that blended a laser like beam with a specific frequency attuned to the earth's sound barrier. This frequency carried a template or code that 'spoke' to the earth in a language that yielded the desired result. In this way a multi level complex network was created and because of its unique construction it exists virtually intact to this day. It is not the sand and stone that is unique and long lasting or the region which is seismically stable for that is not the case; it is the method with which this network has been asked to hold its form. The same is true of the great pyramids of Egypt and of other ancient structures throughout the world, though certainly not all. Old does not always mean ancient, and solid is not always sacred.
While the visitors' stay was initially short in duration it became prolonged and extended later on. There were no specific laws governing uninhabited planets then, especially ones whose sovereign sentience was not yet acknowledged as was the case with the earth at the time. Universal laws were given to interpretation and while some species honored all laws others honored none. These visitors from space were not plunderous villains as they are sometimes portrayed, they arrived with purpose and direction and abided by rules and laws of their own making. By contrast, those who today rape and pillage the earth, its resources, and its people have more to be accountable for than these beings did. I marveled at their engineering feats and easily surrendered what they wished as I had no immediate need of any one resource.
As time passed, earth was visited and later inhabited by a variety of races and beings. They were mostly indifferent to one another which surprised me. They claimed different resources and made their home in different parts of the world so conflicts were rare and easily resolved. Some beings made their home in the water, deep beneath the waves. They were able to breathe underwater as their physiology allowed this, but the salinity of the sea shortened their physical life span. Many off planet races have contributed to humanity's gene pool though few would recount this today. Earth Humans are the result of the cumulative effects of receiving the best and the worst that both heaven and earth have to offer. It has been left to you to decide what traits you will keep and which ones you will forego. Further studies in genetics will assist this process as will advanced knowledge from beyond the earth that will soon be added to what is already known.
Humanity received knowledge and assistance from other races, but it would not be prudent to assume that what was received was the best that each race had to offer. Earth was a temporary home for engineers, scientists, scavengers, treasure hunters, renegades and more. For the most part they were not ambassadors of peace who brought gifts of reciprocity in order to establish diplomatic relations and cultural perspectives. The same can be said of those who today venture forth in the tiny modules your governments send into space. Are they the very best the human culture can offer, or are they simply humans on a purposeful and well rehearsed mission? What might another culture expect to find if an encounter were to take place? What could be said or offered about the human race at this time in history, do you see?
Humanity learned many things from those who long ago interacted with it. Among these were how to do many things such as how to do building, how to do growing and cultivating; in essence it learned how to do work. Early humans did not learn how to be. They did not learn the value of being. Being leads to nurturing and when one is nurtured one is valued. Human value leads to human respect and respect leads to friendship and rapport. This important step was omitted for a variety of reasons, some of which are obvious. Humans were taught how to do many jobs and they were rewarded when they worked hard. Early humans worked hard to please those whom they believed were more powerful and advanced than they were. Deeply ingrained within the human psyche is the desire to please and the need to work hard. How does a student earn good grades in school? By working hard. How does an employee earn a raise or keep a job? By working hard. How do humans earn rewards such as paper money, a home to live in, a vehicle to drive, a television to watch or a week of vacation? Work Hard!
Visitors to earth believed that human life was less valuable than other advanced life forms. Early humans did not resist or resent this, especially as it came from what they believed were their parents. As a matter of fact, they incorporated this very ideology into their own cultures. As they had no other species to look down upon, they looked to the differences within their cultures and to the variations in the color of their skin. What my sentience experienced as beautiful and bountiful variations and expressions within a species, humans experienced as vital flaws and responded with violations of unwritten disapproval. Social classes seemed to spring up almost overnight carrying the same implications as they do today. As cultures and societies developed, beliefs and attitudes regarding worship and deities also developed and these only served to further separate rather than unite humanity.
Eventually humanity was left on its own to fend for itself. Men and women continued to work hard at tasks that had become obsolete. Humans mined for precious metals and gemstones they had no need of but assigned value to them just the same. Crops were harvested and game animals raised, but these did not contain the nutritional content needed to maintain humanity's health. Physiology and biology has adjusted over a millennia of time or humanity would have perished. To be was to be idle and this was frowned upon then just as it is today. Mothers nurtured their sons and daughters for only a short time before they were quickly taught how to work in order to serve the needs of family, community and culture. The lessons of long ago have not yet been unlearned, but they will because they must. Societies now teach their children from a very young age what is expected of them. They are taught to prepare for the rigors of life rather than for its bounty. The value is with the service or commodity provided rather than with the source of creative energy that provides it.
Deep within human cellular memory is the knowledge that those who long ago departed would one day return. Many of history's twists and turns have been designed to position certain beings and certain orders in such a way as to receive good favor upon this return. Humans have worked hard or caused others to and abided by laws that are skewed and fatally flawed in order to ensure this outcome. Today's power struggles and disputes will become tomorrow's overtures toward ownership of the earth. Descendants linked to beings from long ago believe the earth and other worlds can be owned and are busy attempting to make that a reality. Why the hurry? Because at this moment they believe that they are on the top rung of the ladder, but they are also well aware that things can change 'when the stars fall from the sky' as the prophecy indicates. Some power mongers are anxious to claim all or part of the earth while they can while others seek only to impress and entice those who will return with riches, comforts and valuable commodities. Long ago it was written that these beings would return to the very same place from which they both arrived and departed. That place is the Middle East.
This embattled region may appear to be only a desert of sand but to those who desire its ownership and control it is far more. It is the key to unfathomable wealth and power as well as a ticket to the stars. It is worth almost any price of which the cost of human life and suffering is but a minor irritation. Underground networks still exist beneath many cities in the Middle East. These networks are wonders of human and extraterrestrial history. They are halls of records as well as amplifiers of energy. Many who make their home in this region can be easily incited to react as directed because they are unconsciously influenced by the energetic patterns that also make their home there. Encoded labyrinths of left over power are the spoils of war desired by those who make suicide bombers of gentle warriors in the guise of fathers and mothers, sisters and brothers. In a game that pits one life against another there are no winners and even those who see this game as a success will soon know otherwise.
Humanity's earth beginnings is in the Middle East and its divinity will be reborn there as well, but perhaps not as prophecy or the books considered holy foretell. The Middle East is genetically prepared for an alteration or translation in frequency. It is encoded with truths and recorded histories that will soon be revealed (revelation). Of the codes that are already understood this much is known: those from far away are due to return to the very place they consider their home away from home. Here they expect to find the reincarnated leaders of long ago along with the progress they have made and the resources they have employed. Those in power today meet to discuss this very thing. They discuss how to promote people and resources to their advantage. They note how expanded the world has become and propose plans to reduce it to a more manageable size. They believe that fewer world leaders would benefit and support their agenda. They prepare themselves and their environment much as you do, but for a different outcome.
What of those who will return? Will they find what they are looking for? Is it not common in your time to visit your history; to visit the homes you have lived in and the schools you have attended? Do you expect to find these as you left them? No, you understand that they belong to those who now occupy them; they belong to the present not the past. Those who return understand this as well. It is certain that they will return to the earth, but it is not yet certain whether they will honor it or lead it; you will both decide this. They wrote their histories that you would remember them, but they did not write their future -- or yours. Why is that? Do you believe they left the future to chance? They did not, they left it to you.
Humanity has moved itself along a number of time lines in the thousands of years that have past, would the same not be true of these beings? They have set down their history, left behind a devoted dowry to their heritage and then moved on much as you will one day do. They have grown and learned and advanced their race; you have been their teachers more than their students though you do not know this given your current frame of reference. Humanity has discovered vast resources within the earth and within itself, could it not discover a new resource in these beings?
Many possibilities exist today and in all fairness it must be noted that merit can be found in all possibilities depending upon one's vantage point, that is why it is always advisable to heed your own inner voice first and the voice of all others second. Most of today's possibilities and tomorrow's probabilities were created long ago. They are based upon expectations and interpretations of a future that has not yet been experienced. It is as if an agreed upon history was projected into the next modular moment where it was promptly proclaimed your future and your destiny. Prophecy requires belief which in turn creates possibility. Without believers (consensus reality) prophecy means little or nothing at all. The future belongs to all and so do all possibilities.
Do not judge yourself or your world by those who tell you about it so that your experience does not fall short. Evaluate yourself and the earth by your desires and by what is reflected to you in the mirror. Of necessity we will acknowledge that the desired future is not yet the present. That being said the following comments will address the situation as it is currently being experienced by a vast percentage of the population, remembering that it is but one reality of many.
Present Day Challenges
The Middle East will continue to have its borders challenged on almost all fronts making new enemies of old adversaries. It will be difficult to discern who is right and who is wrong which is appropriate given that no side can be. Borders will quickly become barricaded boundaries and moving about freely will not be easy. Levels of distrust are at an all time high with no signs of diminishing. Citizens have become pawns in a chess match that cannot be won. They will be moved from here to there and back again, each time losing ground and gaining nothing because human life is still of little consequence; it is considered collateral damage and as such it is a foreseeable loss.
Proponents of the war machine ideology will force neutral countries and leaders to join its battle cry by promise and power as well as by indulgence and intimidation. They know all too well where the Achilles heel hides the buried skeletons, in other words, they are well aware of the strengths and weaknesses of all concerned. For this reason cooperation and support will be offered by less than likely candidates. It will seem at least in the beginning that diplomacy and good will have taken a giant leap backward. A variety of forceful measures will be put into place to ensure that policies and positions of authority do not slip.
The country with the largest war machine agenda [the US] will step fully and completely into the limelight leaving little to the imagination regarding what it desires to accomplish. It will critically overstep its bounds and fatefully expose itself, but this will not be understood for some time. Many nations will be pulled into the foray because they will no longer be able to hide behind protective skirts that do little other than skirt issues of principle.
Israel will begin to lose worldwide favor in its attempt to institute the war machine policies of its benefactor. Palestine will rise from its crouching position; it will lift its sword and blandish it angrily but with little bravery. The heart and soul of a people whose vision once included peaceful liberation will be nearly extinguished; in its place will be an artificially transplanted heart that knows only retaliation and retribution . . . unfathomable acts in response to unconscionable provocations. The world's population will be bewildered. They will not know who or what to believe or how to anticipate what will happen next. The initial response will be to close doors and windows and minds to the atrocities and the bloodshed, but the borders and the boundaries have already been breached and even hearts in seeming retreat will know the despair that others live. The people within this region suffer great injustice, but is any suffering just?
The battles will be of limited duration but they will be ongoing and the destruction and loss of life will be dear. The forces at work in this region will stir the destructive energies and then they will stir them some more bringing to the surface what has already boiled and is now ready to burn. Explosions will ring out in the countrysides as well as in the hearts of men and women. Right and wrong are at polar opposites in the roller-coaster called Duality. Of necessity a center point will be found for if it not those who ride these precarious rails will find themselves clinging to a position they cannot maintain and they will eventually fall. Right and wrong will no longer have meaning and only the end of suffering will have true meaning and value.
While many minds continue to rage others will simmer allowing the heart's voice of reason and compassion to be heard above the cacophony of the war cry. An awareness unlike any other will be presented to each being. A choice as none before will be put to both the powerful and the powerless -- surrender, surrender, surrender, your only enemy is the shadow that is cast where the light cannot enter. Earth and Heaven are united in all causes including the one called Peace. Of one mind and one heart the universe was once born and to this it will return. Even those who have looked askance or turned a blind eye will find that this is no longer an option. Where physical eyes are prevented from experiencing the piercing of truth it will find other ways to make its presence known.
Humanity still wipes the sleep from a dream spun long ago. It now attempts to awaken from its slumber, but the lullaby still plays and the sweet sounds of oblivion still unfold their promise. Today the cry is for more knowledge, but even a vast amount of knowledge does not wisdom make. Wisdom is present within every being, it lies within one's connection to source. It is not in tomorrow's headlines or even in these words which are offered with grace. Wisdom is not hidden in the corridors of the past or the eventualities of the future. Wisdom is the thread that weaves one reality to another, one world to another, and one dimension to the next. Wise beings are among you and within you. When they are allowed to speak the voice of peace will be heard because it is the One Voice that speaks for All.
The igniting of passions will come soon. An impassioned plea on the part of one will ignite a passionate response on the part of another. A conflict will ensue, perhaps larger than the horrors that have already become daily fare. It will not yet be the full war that both our hearts abhor for other actions are due to be set into motion first. This delay may spare more lives and open more hearts and minds. Those who seek vengeance as well as cause will first choose to put down what they believe is a larger adversarial threat elsewhere. Perpetrators of evil who are elsewhere known as leaders will be held up as examples of the necessities of war. Just as weapons of war have their targets so do messages of peace and it is hoped that these will meet their targets head on. What will come to pass has not yet been written. Allow your mind to be at rest so that it does not fashion a future that can be of benefit to no one. Do not forget this. Look beyond the physical so that you will see and feel truth. The heart does not perceive truth from what the eyes are stimulated into seeing or what jargon the ears become aware of. Seek balance in the physical and non-physical experiences that are part of your awareness, from the teachers who make their presence known to you, from your partners and companions, and from those who offer themselves from all of the kingdoms that are available to you.
Do not measure your own pace by the leagues that others walk. If you measure yourself by the Now of others you will always find yourself lacking and if you measure yourself by future terms you will never find yourself in the Now. Measure yourself from within so that you will understand success without; measure yourself between now and forever, between the heart and the mind, between the physical and the non physical, between the kingdoms of nature and the kingdoms of men. That is what I do and I am not as different from you as you now imagine. You are bound by honor and integrity as well as by a promise made on a level that exists beyond the physical.
Where you walk I also walk. Where you tread lightly I do as well. Where you lament for humanity my own cries are with you, but even in my tears there is upliftment for I carry a hope, a faith, and a determination that will not fall short. So take heart, together we will walk a path of courage, awareness, vision and consciousness. Remember to rest here and there for as you do, so will I.
