Seasons for Change

During seasons of change ushered in by catastrophic events the song made for World Team, gives hope. World Team Now took action and approached the US government with a coalition to support energy policy.
Silence, contemplation and inner retreat has helped to reflect on the past seasons of catastrophic events; first with the Deep Water Horizon Oil Spill and again this year with the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant’s radiation (here is a visual story);
The metaphor of Groundhog Day, with the concept of “seeing the shadow” as how it relates to the coming of the Spring season, and it’s cycle of renewal, an opportunity for new growth! Dedicated to the environmental and social issues–to raise consciousness through the World Team project, these events are unfathomable to comprehend especially as our World Team concept began in Japan. Appreciation of our clean air, water and earth’s precious resources is key along with food, shelter, sleep and love. Prayers go out to our friends and extended family in Japan and in the Ivory Coast that are challenged now.
The situation now at Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant is best understood from a broad perspective and a scientific one, so please click on the below links to keep up to date with the radiation, and for concerns about the nuclear catastrophe. The Agencies list the facts of the situation, and are worth to check on daily. The Media Coverage listed are the news outlets that are intelligently and consistently publishing solid stories. The Articles are one’s we have read and found to be of significant value. The Blogs we selected are credible scientific sources that post accurate information before the traditional media outlets can, because they are the experts. Traditional media coverage is slower with presenting the news, because they need to check and validate the facts with experts.

Coping
The known 5 stages of grieving in the process of loss are valuable to understand as they help to shed light towards catastrophe and death. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross applies below to any form of catastrophic loss (job, income, freedom), as well many tragedies and disasters. The stages, known in its abbreviated form DABDA, include:
Understanding
Dr. Ernest Sternglass changed my understanding of the power of nuclear energy in an interview I did with him more than 15 years ago about the cumulative effects of low level radiation. He was is brilliant man who shared about his meeting with Albert Einstein. He explained that Albert was near the end of his life about the same age difference as between Sternglass and I. Sternglass described Einstein as a” broken man” who was guilt ridden with the effect of his contribution to science that helped usher in the nuclear error (or era).
Prayer
The prayer offered by Dr. Masaru Emoto has a powerful intent to change the property of the radioactive water, see below for his suggested words. Try praying it in a way that communicates truth and pure intent for you;
“The water of Fukushima Nuclear Plant, we are sorry to make you suffer. Please forgive us. We thank you, and we love you.”
If his goals are realized healing an awakening would occur for Japan waters and our sea that connects all of us around the world. What is there to loose with prayer? Only if it works, globally we would have to re-shape and change our perception of consciousness to see the power of both science and prayer.
