Hado - July 25 - World Day of Love and Prayer for Water

Saturday, July 23rd, 2005

G’day everyone of you fantastic people…

Many of you will have seen Dr Emoto’s photography of water crystals in the movie “What the Bleep Do We Know?”.

Here’s a request straight from Dr. Emoto for us to unite on July 25th.

Please get the details below. Just think… 3 sentences is all it takes to get involved!

I will link the photographs in at a later point.

From Dr. Emoto…

In the beginning of April, I received an invitation to visit Brazil from NGO called “CRY OF WATER” in Sao Paulo . I visited there about one week and gave 6 lectures in various places. During my visit, I was asked to take the lead in the ceremony to purify the water of Lake Pichucaba in Sao Paulo, for Lake Carapicuiba was heavily polluted recently (Photo below). Of course, I accepted that request and went to the lake with 30 friends on Sunday of the week. In fact, water of the lake was considerably polluted and gave off a terrible smell. And I was bewildered by the unexpected size of the lake. I thought the lake was too large for sending energy to all corners of the lake by 30 persons.

Lake Carapicuiba

After thinking for a while, I decided how to offer our prayer. First, I asked them to put the water of the lake into a 500 cc PET bottle. Then I asked them to join hands in a circle and put the bottle in the center of this circle. And I said, By this number, this lake is too large to pray directly to water. So let’s offer a prayer to the water of this PET bottle. By doing this, this small quantity of water will resonate with the water of the whole lake and will surely bring about the same effect to the lake.
Gazing at the water, I said 3 times,

I Love You, Water. I Thank You, Water. I Respect You, Water.

Other people repeated the same after me. And we offered our thought to water for a minute (Photo below).

I brought three PET bottles back to Japan . The 1st is water before a prayer, 2nd is water put in a PET bottle after a prayer, and the last is water of the lake after offering a prayer. Of course, I took pictures of those water crystals. The results are shown below.

I myself led the prayer and got these images, subsequently. But I did not expect that we could take these pictures so perfectly in this way. When I saw these pictures, I got goose bumps and found no word to say. I found that what I am going to do on July 25th is to the point. I was moved deeply and was not able to hold back my tears.

Now you can imagine. On July 25th, we offer pure prayer to water in various places of the world, wishing the peace of our earth and human beings. Much water for praying is not required. Only a glass of water will do. And please pray for 3 minutes at home, at work, at the edge of the lake, at the riverside, at the lakeside, or at the beach. You may pray any time on July 25th. The waves generated by the HADO (vibration) of our sincere prayer will wrap in this wounded planet completely. A blueprint of our planet Earth and our human society filled with Love and Thanks and without any conflicts will be formed on this day.

Let’s say together on July 25

I Love You, Water.
I Thank You, Water.
I Respect You, Water.

Technoverloaded?

Wednesday, July 6th, 2005

Are you Overloaded by Technology? Technoverloaded?

I live, breath, eat and sleep technology. Sometimes I go to bed with a laptop and two mobile phones!!

When clients ring me to say that their wireless network keeps dropping out and they don’t know where to put their WEP key, when their FTP client cannot connect in passive mode to port 20, when the FTP server is handing out port numbers above 50,000 and their router firewall is blocking those ports and they don’t even have an awareness that this exists… it’s times like these when I think that it just seems all too much.

D K D K … What You Don’t Know You Don’t Know is what’s in the way for the vast majority of people when it comes to technology.

How can the average Jane or Joe manage in today’s technoverloaded world if she or he don’t have a geek boy like me to call for the answers?

So the thing is, I’ve chosen to stay way out there beyond the sixth sigma of the technology curve, because I am a technology consultant. This is what I do for others. This is how I can be of service. I am a human instantiation of the mind / machine interface. I am the bridge from flesh to electron, from neuron to silicon, from neural network to TCP/IP network.

I help by translating the inexplicable, the incomprehensible, the baffling and complex, into plain English, so that people can harness and leverage the amazing communications and productivity benefits that our global Internet technology gives us.

Sometimes I lose sight of the fact that I’m in the top 1% of the top 1% of the most techno-privileged elite on the planet. When I consider that fully 50% of the people in the world have never made a telephone call… my angst over TCP and UDP blocking in firewalls, the vulnerabilities of WEP encryption on wireless networks starts to take on the trappings of the absurd really. So as long as I treat it as a fantastic weird adventure, a wonderful game of Cleudo and Lego mixed together, with a slab of Mechano thrown in, it’s all good.

Take a deep breath, grab another Lavazza Expresso and Power On!!

The re-awakening of the crone

Wednesday, July 6th, 2005

The crone is the most powerful, yet most sublimated and suppressed of the female archetypes. The crone is the older woman, no longer of child bearing age, who has ceased menstruation but has come into her greatest power of wisdom, intellect, spiritual maturity and insightful analysis of societal structures.

The crone sees through pretense, cuts away the fabrications of patriarchal dominance, strips away the pretensions of male mastery and lays bare the underlying truths that are waiting there for all to see. Men cannot pretend that theirs is the right to dominate and control social structures. That is the way of dysfunction and madness, oppression of minorities, warmongering and spiritual mutation.

The crone parts the mists of collective societal hallucination to engage us directly in the questions that are sure to be uncomfortable, but only because they duly expose pretense, disperse smoke and smash mirrors.

The crone and her revered sisters, the hag and the witch were burned, stoned, staked, hung, drawn and quartered systematically with comprehensive destructive thoroughness by the patriarchal dominator power structure of the Catholic Church of the Middle Ages. The Inquisition accomplished its intended purpose of suppressing the power of the feminine almost in totality, of sublimating and in many cases perverting it.

The success of the Inquisition in its intended purpose has been quite staggering. Young women even of today in the 21st century speaking with contempt of their sisters who attempt to assert their rights to equaltiy. Just yesterday I read that feminism is dead, that young women are contemptuous of the hairy vegan ‘man haters’ who are attempting to somehow upset the accepted way of things, that here in Australia, its sport, beer and cars and good times for all as long as you play the male dominated corporate power game.

Some powerful women are tolerated, as there has to be a few to provide camoflage to support the illusion that we are living in a society that upholds equality of the sexes. Gail Kelly is commonly held up and lauded by generally male business media commentators as the standard example of the career woman CEO, mother and wife who has it all. Her commitment to her professional life and her achievements in the corporate realm are truly outstanding, but that is only one dimension of her life. What else do you know of her - her aspirations, passions for her children, for humanity? Also, ask yourself this; why is she so comprehensivly outnumbered, possibily the only top 100 woman CEO in Australia to be at the helm of a public company in the executive capacity?

We have built our culture and society on a dysfunctional model of oppression and sublimation of the natural order of things. The nurturing, wise counsel of the sacred feminine is essential to our future success as human beings if we are to have a world that works for everyone.

I say, that we must remember the crone. The time of her sublimated slumber is drawing to a close. Crones are awakening, stirring, stretching, standing up and speaking out. They are telling it like it is and they are not afraid to take on the women who have suppressed their true natures and made power pacts with the patriachal system.

Crones, I commend you all and call on you to stand proud and strong in your determination to make a powerful contribution towards a world that works for everyone!

Herewith for your further elucidation, the definition of crone, quoted from Crones Counsel:

“Crones Counsel uses the term crone to reference, and to reclaim, the name of the wisewoman of ancient times. The concept of crone existed tens of thousands of years ago when women’s life patterns were conceptualized in three stages — Maiden, Mother, and Crone. The Maiden was the youthful, independent woman. The Mother was a woman who guided others–as a biological mother or as a teacher. The Crone was the postmenopausal woman who enjoyed a special, revered status. The elder woman was viewed as a fount of wisdom, law, healing skills, and moral leadership; her presence and leadership were treasured at every significant tribal ceremony and each personal occasion from birth to death. In that light, Crones Counsel consistently focuses on the empowerment and well-being of older women and claims the honored status of the ancient crone for contemporary women. ”

The beginning of the new age

Tuesday, July 5th, 2005

Herewith I provide you with Thom Hartmann’s words; constituting a glimspe through the keyhole into a new dimension of comprehension of your purpose here on Spaceship Earth. I heartily encourage you to read the whole Chapter excerpt from Thom Hartmann’s web site; then order the book “The Prophet’s Way”.

Chapter Excerpt from: “The Prophet’s Way”

Meeting Master Stanley
by Thom Hartmann

The beginning of the new age

This vision, and then opening the Bible to that quote, upset me so much that the next week I brought it up with Master Stanley.

“What you have seen is not unique,” he said. “We humans are an infection on the Earth. It shall heal itself. This will be the beginning of the new times, what some would call the new age.”

“As in the biblical Revelation?” I said. “Wars, plagues, famines, earthquakes. . .”

“Perhaps,” he said. “It depends on the choices we make in the next thirty years. But in either case, it will be a time of great renewal and spiritual energy.

“Dark and light are always in balance. There cannot be a shadow without a light, and the strongest light will create the darkest shadow.

“Everything will accelerate and intensify. People will feel this, they’ll know that the world is moving faster, that time is moving faster, that there is a spiritual pressure like a wind to their backs, but most won’t understand its nature. They’ll wonder why they have no time, why the world is moving so fast, why life is slipping through their fingers like dry sand. Those who don’t understand the meaning of this time will be swept away by it. That’s why we must teach them.”

“But why all the disasters? Why all the deaths?”

He pushed his handkerchief to his mouth and said, “These are the mysteries. Perhaps one day you will unravel them. In any case, we all chose to be on the Earth at this time to experience them, and we therefore have an important work to do.”

Entregreeneur : The Entrepreneur of the Future

Tuesday, July 5th, 2005

The Entrepreneur of the future is an Entregreeneur. A green entrepreneur.

Declaring oneself to be an Entregreeneur carries the power of authentic caring, contribution and service to humanity.

Such a declaration denotes a commitment to workability, to fair play and just consideration of the impact of one’s actions on one’s fellow humans.

It is no small thing, indeed it is a majestic and noble gift to humanity, to declare oneself to be an Entregreeneur.

I humbly invite you to do so.

Introduction from an Entregreeneur

Monday, July 4th, 2005

I am Bradley Hughes. I am an Entregreeneur.

An Entregreeneur is a green entrepreneur; an entrepreneur who is committed to ecological sustainability.

As an entregreeneur, one exists as a human being who is continuously and progressively evolving to the beingness of Entregreeneur, for a set of purposes that are encompassed collectively within a realm of possibility named “A World That Works For Everyone”. For an Entregreeneur, nothing less than this will do.

A world that works for everyone is one in which nobody is dominated, oppressed or violated by another, where all have access to a sufficient quantity and quality of food, water and shelter - the basic essentials of life. Thence also having access to education and oppportunity in a democratic fair market system.

It is a world where our finite resources are allocated, governed, managed in a manner that provides for a sustainable future for humanity.

The purpose of an Entregreeneur is to bring about a lasting multi-dimensional transformation in the world, with the end result being a new realm wherein we all shall dwell, that being “A World That Works For Everyone”.

Some obvious dimensions of this transformation are:

fear –> love
war –> peace
suspicion –> trust
ignorance –> bliss
greed –> gratitude
scarcity –> abundance
domination –> partnership
unsustainable consumption –> sustainable prosumption

You too may well be an Entregreeneur, the ONE who will make the difference!

For everyone who so chooses to commit themselves and their lives to the cause of transformation in the world, the glorious, honourable designation Entregreeneur shall be assigned.

You may declare yourself as an Entregreeneur, by affirming to uphold without prejudice, the following declaration:

“I declare myself to be in thought, word and deed, One who achieves abundance through practising ethical, ecologically friendly, sustainable enterprise with integrity and goodwill toward all.”

There are multitudinous dimensions to the transformations to be wrought by Entregreeneurs around the world. You will know what your own personal primary, secondary and teritary dimensions of transformation are. Your personal dimensions are those where your consciousness will dwell, your creativity will be expressed and the fruits of your labours will be manifested.

It is through the collective actions, communcations, efforts, ideas and inventions of each one of us that we will transform the future of humanity and SpaceShip Earth into one that will sustain us and all future generations for as long as humanity shall wish to continue.

I invite you to join me in the grand adventure of creating a “World That Works For Everyone”!

Declare yourself in this forum to be an Entregreeneur. Then be it, live it and share your experiences here with all your fellow Entregreeneurs.

A great deal more will be said and done, communicated and explored, as we move together forward into a bright future for humanity.

I cannot emphasis too strongly the gravity and importance of integrity to our collective success in this grand adventure. Integrity is foundational and fundamental to everything.

Who we are, how we be and act, what we say and do, must all be grounded completely in a space of integrity.

For the best working definition of integrity that I am aware of in the world today, I refer you to the definition as stated by Landmark Education Corporation:

“INTEGRITY is: nothing hidden, being truthful and honest, doing complete work, working from an empowering context, and doing very well what you do, doing it as it was meant to be done or better, and without cutting corners. In other words, HONOURING ONE’S WORD.

Doing what you know to do, doing what you said you would do and on time, doing what others could expect you to do even if you haven’t said that you would do it, and saying when you are not doing this as soon as you realise you won’t be doing it or won’t be doing it on time.”

Integrity is not a place to get, it is merely a context from which to live. There is no right or wrong to it, only that which works and that which does not.

Here I refer to that which works for all of humanity or not, as nothing less than 100% inclusiveness in the assurance of humanity’s brightest future will do for those who declare themselves to be Entregreeneurs.

Those of you who are aware of his life’s labours, achievements and legacy will readily recognise my direct use of terminologies from R. Buckminster Fuller. You will also no doubt recognise the influence his creations, ideas, mentations and writings has on my expression of what is possible for us all.

For now, I leave you with the words of the great Bucky…

“If humanity does not opt for integrity we are through completely. It is absolutely touch and go. Each one of us could make the difference.”
R. Buckminster Fuller

Join the adventure, be an Entregreeneur!

happy regards…

namaste,

Bradley Hughes
