YOUR INNATE ABILITIES CAN HELP THE MARINE WILDLIFE
Beginning April 20th, 2010 our world has changed forever, causing each of us to change forever. This type of focus comes into our lives with the passing of a loved one or an event that takes us out of our daily perceptions and brings us into the deeper views of the fragility of life. The unthinkable has happened.
This spill feels very personal to me as I have spent five years living on the Gulf of Mexico in Sarasota Florida. I won’t go on and tell you stories which make us all more upset. Even with the government’s suppression of the media and the truth of what is happening in the Gulf; we know what is going on. Instead I want to tell you about some extraordinary experiences I have witnessed on the beaches. The marine life is intelligent and driven by their instinctual nature. We posses an instinctual nature but have given it away to the distractions and stress in our daily lives.
My focus is on the sea turtles. Their bodies are huge and heavy. I have marveled at their persistence to drag themselves, scraping their shells against the sand as they dig their short but muscular flippers into the beach, inching toward their nests. I am not sure I would have the same strength and endurance. I am convinced it is their maternal instinct that gets them there. After their exhausting trek across the beach, they begin digging a nest for the safety of their young. The turtles spend hours laying eggs. Not small eggs, but eggs that they push out with the inner strength of their bodies. Each egg is then buried with great care as each turtle mother knows she must allow the sand to warm and incubate her young. Then she will finish piling on sand to protect her young from birds, raccoons, all predators. She then turns back to the waters, dragging herself across the beach, trusting the earth to protect and hatch her young so they too can have the immense freedom of the sea. This is intelligence. This is instinct. This is ancient wisdom born of the sea.
On one of my frequent treks to Siesta Key beach on a full moon night, hundreds of sea turtle hatchlings were beginning their journeys toward the open waters. I was amazed at how tiny, strong and determined these very young turtles are. The pull of the moon has them break out of their shells and drag their brand new bodies across the pure white sand. Never stopping. It is a great distance for a tiny being. When they finally reach the edge of the calm warm water, even the smallest wave pushes them back onto the sand. The most inspiring part of their journey, is watching the turtles get thrown back on the sand by the gentle water only to try again. It can take twenty five tries before the smallest wave cooperates and a newborn turtle begins its swim out to sea. The Gulf of Mexico provides all that is needed for creation of this cycle of life.
On August 5th, 2005 the Englewood Sun Herald reported “a bizarre freeway of fish swimming by the thousands along the shore of Englewood beach leaving crowds of beach-goers agog and marine biologists bewildered.” It was reported that a wide variety of sea creatures came swimming south in a narrow band close to the beach at mid-morning. There were clouds of shrimp, crab, grouper, snapper, red fish and flounder. They were joined by sea robins, needlefish and eels. The parade was a mile long. It was truly an aquatic exodus. In August 2005 the marine life was escaping the toxic red tide algae blooms.
How is this possible and what exists when species come together in unified consciousness and peacefully act in mass to preserve themselves and each other? How can a celestial body like the moon be an ingredient in creating generations of ancient sea turtles? How could it be when I stood at the water’s edge one night practicing Qigong that a huge sea turtle would emerge from the Gulf precisely in the spot where my feet were planted?
It is because all species on this beautiful planet exist in a constant and innate state of perception and communication. What would happen if we all reached inside ourselves and awakened our innate telepathic abilities? We could communicate truths. We could warn the sea life of the toxic dispersants, help the dolphins escape the underwater plumes, ask the whales to move to safer waters and let the families who have been terribly affected by the crisis know we are here to support them. Your telepathic abilities can be scientifically proven. Use them. We can become a unified freeway steering the planet politically and environmentally toward safe and truthful solutions for the Gulf and our future.
