Cruz, California)
Do
you complain? If
you do, just stop.
You can change the world with that one simple
act. Complaining
contributes to war.
Not complaining contributes to peace.
What do you do?
The
campaign started as a pastor’s divine idea: Just
stop complaining.
And to help his congregation remember, Pastor
Will Bowen gave each one a purple bracelet to put on
their wrist. The
challenge was to go 21 days in a row without
complaining. No
gossiping or criticizing either. Whenever the person
forgot and complained, the bracelet was switched to
the other wrist and they had to start their 21-day
count over.
The
church has a website www.AComplaintFreeWorld.org.

Welcome
to the April edition of Raising Vibrations!
April is an exciting month for me, as I prepare for a Spiritual Adventure
to Peru on the 20th of the month!
I AM SO EXCITED!
There was a very special event that took place there last month on the
Solstice at Lake Titicaca (http://www.earthworksforhumanity.org/
for more information and pictures/video clips.)
Below you will find an article, which will give you some background and
also integrate you to some of the events that are coming this
month in Nanaimo. Consciousness is speeding up, and there are
earth changes that are happening in our world that demand our
attention and our understanding.
Mostly it is our love (higher vibration) that is requested,
and not our fear (lower vibration). As we inform ourselves about
what is happening, we can begin to see these changes as
opportunities and integrate them into our experience instead of
fearing them. There is no mistake that several movies are being
presented this month in Nanaimo on the Mayan Calendar. The Mayans
of Central Mexico/Guatemala and the Incas of Peru are not the only
ones that have prophesies of up and coming events in our world.
The Anazazzi of the Southwestern USA as well, see the Eagle and
the Condor coming together as the beginning of a world of Peace
and Harmony.
There will be some great news and insights about my adventures in Machu
Picchu and the Amazon Jungle in the June Newsletter, but there
will not be one for May.
Have
a wonderful spring. I will be back online in early June. Here is a
link to another movie that I hope to be showing when I return.
There is a lot of information to look at and a beautiful trailer
of the movie. Click

Warmly, Ev
The
Eagle and the Condor
by
Barry
Fraser
In
the first few pages of the book "Spirit of the Shuar"
co-author Shakaim Mariano tells how he and his wife are saddened
to see "how little they have" as they got to know the
North Americans and Europeans who visited his Shuar village in the
Amazon rainforest.
Were
someone from North America to visit a Shuar village, they would
see what might look like a materialistically impoverished people.
They would see strong and healthy people who do not want for food
and other basics, but who have very few "comforts",
living in simple shelters with no electricity. Interestingly, they
might say exactly what Shakaim Mariano said about that of the
North Americans who visited his home.
But visitors would also see something that is
sadly missing in our culture that we so desperately long for. They
would see a people who have a profound spiritual connection to the
earth and an indelible bond to each other and to their ancestors.
They would see a people who spend their daily lives working three
hours a day with the rest of their time spent playing, enjoying
family, friends, and the beauty around them, experiencing the
ecstasy of feeling their oneness with the earth and all living
creatures. They would see a people who live joyously and have time
for all the truly important things.
We
have so much to teach each other.
Many
of the indigenous cultures of the world share a two thousand year
old prophecy about the eagle and the condor. In the Andes it is
expressed as the coming of the new Pachacuti, an interval of
roughly 500 years. The prophecy foretold an unbalance and
tremendous conflict throughout the Americas from around 1500 to
2000. During this time the eagle, representing the mental and
materialistic, has driven the condor, representing the spiritual
and heart-centered, almost into extinction.
The
eagle represents the modern, technological world, and the people
of the eagle have developed the intellect at the expense of the
heart. They have developed technology to an extraordinary level,
bringing them material wealth beyond their wildest dreams. But
they also find themselves spiritually impoverished to their peril.
The people of the condor represent the indigenous
people of the world living close to the land, with the heart and
wisdom that come from being attuned to the natural world. They
live from their heart and through their senses, and have an
unparalleled depth of spirituality and wisdom that is an
expression of their profound connection to nature.
These
people are spiritually rich but materially impoverished. The
forces of the developed world now threaten their environment that
they depend on for their material and spiritual sustenance. They
must understand and develop some of the intellectual skills of the
eagle.
According
to the prophecy of the eagle and condor, we are at the beginning
of the "Fifth Pachacuti", a time when the condor will
rise again and will once again fly together wing to wing in the
same sky as the eagle and the world will come into balance. It is
a time of partnership, love and healing, and a transition out of
an era of conflict and turmoil into more sustainable and
earth-honoring ways. It will be a time of great transition but
also with some dangers. The condor will not soon forget the
domination of the eagle. The eagle must also change to help
restore the balance.
Our task now is to begin to return to the
heart-wisdom ways of the condor; to individually begin to fulfill
the prophecy. We need to "come to our senses," and
listen with our hearts to what the earth is trying to tell us. We
need to begin to look at and understand how the individual choices
we make every day not only perpetuate the destruction of the
earth, but also contribute to our own sense of unhappiness,
stress, and isolation from each other. We must begin now to help
the condor soar.
