2 Views from Japan.........

For the last several weeks I have been taking an on line seminar with 'New Thought' Guru, Jean Houston.  In one of her live Q & A sessions last week she began her talk by reading this beautiful letter from a friend of a friend who lives in Japan.............

Jean begins........


I received this from a friend of a friend. It's pretty illuminating.
Love,
Jean

Hello My Lovely Family and Friends,

First I want to thank you so very much for your concern for me. I am very touched. I also wish to apologize for a generic
message to you all. But it seems the best way at the moment to get my message to you. Things here in Sendai have been
rather surreal. But I am very blessed to have wonderful friends who are helping me a lot. Since my shack is even more
worthy of that name, I am now staying at a friend's home. We share supplies like water, food and a kerosene heater. We
sleep lined up in one room, eat by candlelight, and share stories. It is warm, friendly, and beautiful. During the day we
help each other clean up the mess in our homes. People sit in their cars, looking at news on their navigation screens, or
line up to get drinking water when a source is open. If someone has water running in their home, they put out sign so
people can come to fill up their jugs and buckets.

Utterly amazingly where I am there has been no looting, no pushing in lines. People leave their front door open, as it is
safer when an earthquake strikes. People keep saying, "Oh, this is how it used to be in the old days when everyone
helped one another." Quakes keep coming. Last night they struck about every 15 minutes. Sirens are constant and
helicopters pass overhead often. We got water for a few hours in our homes last night, and now it is for half a day.
Electricity came on this afternoon. Gas has not yet come on. But all of this is by area. Some people have these things and
others do not. No one has washed for several days. We feel grubby, but there are so much more important concerns
than that for us now. I love this peeling away of non‐essentials. Living fully on the level of instinct, of intuition, of caring,
of what is needed for survival, not just of me, but of the entire group.

There are strange parallel universes happening. Houses a mess in some places, yet then a house with futons or laundry
out drying in the sun. People lining up for water and food, and yet a few people out walking their dogs. All happening at
the same time. Other unexpected touches of beauty are first, the silence at night, no cars, and no one out on the streets.
And the heavens at night are scattered with stars. I usually can see about two, but now the whole sky is filled. The
mountains of Sendai are solid and with the crisp air we can see them silhouetted against the sky magnificently.

And the Japanese themselves are so wonderful. I come back to my shack to check on it each day, now to send this e‐mail
since the electricity is on, and I find food and water left in my entranceway. I have no idea from whom, but it is there.
Old men in green hats go from door to door checking to see if everyone is OK. People talk to complete strangers asking if
they need help. I see no signs of fear. Resignation, yes, but fear or panic, no. They tell us we can expect aftershocks, and
even other major quakes, for another month or more. And we are getting constant tremors, rolls, shaking, and rumbling.
I am blessed in that I live in a part of Sendai that is a bit elevated, a bit more solid than other parts. So, so far this area is
better off than others. Last night my friend's husband came in from the country, bringing food and water. Blessed again.
Somehow at this time I realize from direct experience that there is indeed an enormous Cosmic evolutionary step that is
occurring all over the world right at this moment. And somehow as I experience the events happening now in Japan, I
can feel my heart opening very wide. My brother asked me if I felt so small because of all that is happening. I don't.
Rather, I feel as part of something happening that much larger than myself. This wave of birthing (worldwide) is hard,
and yet magnificent.

Thank you again for your care and Love of me,
With Love in return, to you all,
Anne


Then today, I glanced at SRI Threads to see how they were reporting on their blog here, and discovered another view.  Scroll down to 'Snow in Ohara'........







I have been on a news and TV fast for a long long time........and thankful for it in times like these when so much fear can be spread.   So I have been uplifted by all the calls to send powerful healing energy in group form.........Jean has asked us to do this between 8 & 10 in the morning wherever we are......from all across the earth.........when we held up our hands in unison as she recited the thoughts for healing and help sent to Japan......I could feel the energy surge 'round the world.......

Namaste dear friends.........Namaste
