Since the last post about peace not war and treating others kindly, the United States government collapsed, and only a tiny bleep from its people. Although the country was not perfect, it was seen as a beacon of hope for many. My grandparents immigrated here, my partners grandparents immigrated here. It is the same for many people I know, and of course, I know many who immigrated themselves. They all sought a better life here, but that has all changed, immigrants are no longer tolerated. The light that shined so brightly across the world has gone dark.

The Constitution of the United States that stood for a little over two hundred years was shredded last week. The constitution begins with “We the People” which means that the government of the United States exists to serve its citizens. That, like the light has now disappeared, now the people serve a dictator.

Who knows what the future brings, but stay strong and hold to the teaching of compassion for whatever creature grasps for the breath and cries.

Shanti, Shanti, Shanti

Here is a verse from the Veda for a Perfect Savior.

To be strong the Lord rises within to enjoy, and to become divine and compassionate, to be perfect as a Savior for the world.
