Nelson Mandela A TRUE MASTER OF MANKIND

I wanted to have a rant about Rupert Murdoch not stepping aside, what nation wants such a defector any way, if he was arriving by boat at Christmas Island these days he would have trouble gaining access I reckon. Well I suppose that's his business and a very unlikely story too. However I consider that as with Professor Zimbardo in his Standford prison experiment Rupert has become absorbed into another part of his own psychopathology. Absorbed into the experiment of his own creation and in this type of "forest of treason" he cannot imagine a world outside the one of his own creation and indoctrinated self image, similar in kind to the unrobed King whose nakedness was easily seen by children and common people living in the sweat of human reality. Some of us are still here Rupert as the Pie Thrower was suggesting, along with millions of forgotten neglected children who are carving their anger and pain into every bus and train window in the hope that some leader will step forward to ease their pain.

This dis-ease of the infected media digitally splashed its way across the world as Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard recently noted when asking the Australian media to be responsible for how they handle their CRAP.
In a similar yet philanthropic manner Bill Gates is attempting to do for the poor and turd trodden in Rwanda where he he has tipped in $40m in an attempt to set up a flush of consciousness to flush and catch the "flying crap" where folks pass waste into a plastic bag and then let it fly into the street to pollute and carry disease and with it death to thousands.

Instead of looking and gaining sympathy for the Foam Pie in the face Rupet would do us all a favour, step aside and take some time out to study and appreciate his self generated psychotic state witnessed by comparison to the beautiful nationally nourishing work of Nelson Mandela who spent 27 years incarcerated by the lies and meddling of Afrikaan's fear and yet he came away from those years as an enlightened man of insurmountable wisdom with precious and pious humility.
Humility and astounding dedication, genuine leadership, beautifully portrayed in the movie INVICTUS where Morgan Freeman played Mandela and Matt Damon led the Springboks to the 1995 world cup championship and a united and liberated South Africa.
So now we head back to the Pond to mind our own business and maybe we might meet there some day where you will find us should you be looking for Counselling.

Synchronous Passing

WELCOME BACK FOLKS

A article from today 18.05.07. Sydney Daily Telegraph telling of the synchronous passing of two inseparable lovers caught my attention and also triggered to consciousness elements of amazing interconnection during my dis -identification relationship training with Halko Weiss, posted elsewhere on this blog.

Further reference about the intensity of such relational connection maybe read in the book "A General Theory of Love". As Hakomi therapists we understand the imperative reality of limbic connections of client and therapist. An emotional sensitive connection.

By inviting, waiting for, giving opportunity to, creating and allowing mindfulness to full trust, feelings of genuine inner warmth and relational safety makes the way we need to connect limbically and work at this magnificent place of therapeutic intimacy. Here is where formerly denied suffering, shame and hurt are allowed to pass and receive personal contrition.

We respectfully offer or commiserations to the family and also acknowledge the devotion and loving connection of the late couple and we would like to share the story from a man and his wife who were inseparable throughout 55 years of marriage and are reported to have died within minutes of each other in different locations across Melbourne.

When police arrived at Arthur Fisher's home in the Melbourne suburb of Ivanhoe this week with the news that his wife, Pat, had died unexpectedly in hospital, they found he too had slipped away peacefully in his sleep.

The devoted couple's children are devastated to have lost both parents on the same night.

But they believe the pair, who couldn't live without each other, somehow found a way to be together forever.

"Some things in life are impossible to understand," daughter Lynette Court said.

"It's uncanny, and it gave me goosebumps when I found out what had happened.

"But we have spoken about it and we really believe that they literally couldn't live without each other."

Art, 78, had been struggling with a kidney complaint, but it wasn't considered life-threatening.

Pat, 77, had recently been diagnosed with cancer and was in the Austin Hospital preparing to start her treatment.

"Dad cried when he was told about mum's cancer, because for the past few years she has been his constant carer," Lynette said.

"This was after he had spent his whole adult life loving, looking after and protecting her.

"They did everything together and were always there for each other, from making bread together and gardening and camping under the stars."

Married in 1951 after meeting on a bus, the couple raised children John, Lynette and Dianne.

They were blessed with eight grandchildren and more recently their first great-grandchild.

Art was a hard-working boiler-maker until retirement at 65 allowed him to be his wife's constant companion at their Heidelberg Heights home.

"They both loved that: pottering around together, doing everything together," Lynette said.

While Pat's cancer diagnosis was a shock, her children did not expect to lose their mother so soon.

"But the hospital rang dad at 3.30am on Monday and left a message for him to contact them.

"When he failed to return their call, they got the local police to go and knock on his door, and when they climbed through a window, they discovered that he had also died," Lynette said.

"We were just shocked the next morning when we got to his house and heard the answering machine message from the hospital, because we realised he would have slipped away at about the same time as mum."

A joint funeral for the loving couple will be held in Ivanhoe this morning.

In yesterdays Daily Telegraph there was another story from London about a son finding his 87 year old English parents deceased. The husband apparently had cut the cord on his electric mower and electrocuted himself, his wife appears to have gone to her husbands aid and she too was electrocuted.

Of course the rational pragmatist would immediately dismiss both of these stories as mere coincidences, we would expect them to maintain their right to that view be they dead or alive. They have the same attitude to old growth forest, global warming and acid rain.

That's All Folks

Back to my pondering Love and Blessings as always phDuck.

Community Growth

23.04.07
I found a Green peace Canada http://www.greenpeace.org/canada/en/campaigns/ge
article about GM corn being dumped at the Liberal Parties Office in Montreal this immediately prompted fond memories of protests driven from Canowindra many years ago when a load of wheat was dropped on our Prime Ministers door step in Canberra.
I looked to the net for Canowindra and found your article by Gillian Lord and the sad reality of children being led astray because our society has lost contact with our systemic limbic development. This reality actually happened many, many years ago, unfortunately systemically left unattended as the model of protest with grain dumping is intended to parallel.
Through your community news letter may I follow the ADHD article and with sincere loving intention offer here a constructive recommendation to one of the most advanced modern books of human development titled A General Theory of Love, researched and written by a trio of Psychiatrists Lewis, Amini, and Lannon, who are leading the way back across the great chasm necessary for healing, created when the medical world lost human touch with their patients and began to rely solely on technology and pharmacology to regenerate health.
Expanding this erroneous practice into totally emotionless mass corporate health absolutely disconnects from human reality. There driven by chill, material heartless colonisers sacrifice all for their adopted belief in self righteous plunder.
Brought to light here by Gillian Ford, it is ruly wonderful to see community news carrying such inflammatory and stimulating articles for attention.
Unfortunately politics cannot see, hear or react compassionately, as the grain dumps continue to demonstrate.
This proves politicians do remain fearfully gripped, "sucked in" by and attached to disconnected unconscious corporate reptilian minded power.
I leave you thinking this may be all rather “Corney” or asking what has “Wheat” got to do with our daily bread?
Hopefully you do have the “ears to hear and the eyes to see” to become sufficiently curious and encouraged to read the book “A General Theory of Love", it is so refreshing and revealing.
Blessings and health to all
