As you may recall, village two was characterized by a clean environment with
healthy People who Respected and Valued themselves, their traditions, and their
surroundings. This was in direct contradistinction to the first village where
sickness, famine, and lack of direction / identity was apparent.
From my perspective, the second village is representative of what can be
expected as we begin to end our little "p" play and begin to big "P" Play in a
way that is Harmonious with Universal Truth, Universal Love, and Universal Law.
Not in the sense that we must return to wooden huts and semi naked living, but
in the sense of a Life that is ever more Harmonious with Creation and therefore
is non destructive / non consumptive / non polluting.
As Father has Said, "the Divine manifests in multiple ways, in multiple
cultures. ... each unto its own way of perception," and while to
industrialized nations this native way of life is considered primitive and
perhaps even brute, it is the case that People in this village are light years
ahead of industrialized nations when it comes to living a "green life". Their
environment was clean and lush, food was natural and healthy (probably vastly
surpassing our concept of "organic"), their housing was made of all natural,
non toxic materials, they did not have polluting industries, there was no sign
of trash piling up in ever increasing heights, there was no signs of plastics,
and there was no sign of anyone being in conflict with Nature. Furthermore,
their environment was natural and humid, free of air, electronic, and noise
pollution that hinders the receptivity of the current sea.
Yet, as I understand this now, it is not just the condition of the external
environment that accounts for the Health and Abundance of these People. After
all, People in the first village shared a similar environment yet lived in
poverty and sickness.
So what made the difference? I would suggest it is in the
inner environment of the People where the explanation can be
found. I will explore this more in my next entry.
