A major outbreak of fighting in the Congo this last week, magnifies the ugly truth of war these days in about 40% of the world...where children from ages 10 years on up (in some cases younger), go to war....For what one asks? How is any war financed? By money? surely not my good looks. Both sides in the Congo conflict are mining very rich deposits of rare ores to finance this civil war. America is the #1 maunfacturer/exporter of handguns in the world ,Russia #1 fer the AK-47 assault rifle, with China, France, England fighting fer 2nd and 3rd places..... ... ....All members of the United Nations Security Council. ... ...
.......I suppose it makes perfect sense to sell weapons to whomever, as long as the bottom line is maintained, that bein the profits and dividends to stockholders. I see these "CIVILIZED COUNTRIES" of north America, Europe and China that have strict gun control laws in their respective countries. Yet would not hesitate to sell an assault rifle or rocket launcher to a 13 year old kid in a 3rd world country......... By the by, why did we intervene in Bosnia/Balkans war (less than 15,000 dead reported thus far), while we seemingly wait till genocide and war reaches incredible proportions in Africa (since 1962 4 to 5 million plus+ in Uganda, In Rawanda 800,000 to 1 million, 300,000+ in Somalia, 300,000+ in Darfur,300,000+ in Liberia and Sierra Lione and Southeast asia (3 million by Khamer Rouge), Congo in the last 5 years~~3 Million dead, majority due to starvation and disease? Perhaps iffin there is an immanent threat to say Europe, or North America or China, then an intervention is called for, like say the Balkans on the door step of Europe? And who benefits from these wars in third world countries? Follow the money, In Liberia and Sierra Lione, was the folks that sell diamonds (DeBeers mainly), in Darfur is Egypt and China over oil. Congo's gold rich ores.....(have not reserched)? Some how, somewhere, there is CIVILIZED FOLKS selling weapons to child solders across this mother earth to kill other child solders....................................

Was informed some nine months ago by Amma, that these days from april to January of next year will be intense days astrologicaly. These past months have been very illuminating, especially in the relations between self n fellow man. A good many folks that seemingly appeared as friends have gone by the way side (fading visions in rear view mirror to be exact). Then there are those that have become good friends. On the whole, this cleansing process has left larger gaps in my life, where we are spending more time alone and less travel. We are seeing the magnifying of positive/negative personality traits in folks overall, self included of course. From a Vastu perspective, the people exiting my life are folks who have the driveways and main entrance ways to property and homes to the South/SW, and we have noticed that these relationships always tended to be.....prickly or troublesome. In point of fact, I believe all people we have had business dealings with that turned out to be very troublesome, have been relationships to people with entranceways to homes in south/SW really troublesome ones were drive ways and main entrance to home in southwest with the north and east being blocked by sheds/buildings or inordinate amount of weight to NE. Just some observations from this past couple years. I refuse to do business with folks if their Vastu is to negative, is a gurantee of nothing but trouble, leastways to my own experiances thus far. We would look upon these days as a great blessing, in that we are letting go of drosses hindering us in the physical, material and spiritual.
