The Declaration of Human Freedom

Archangel Michael (Via Steve Beckow), Feb. 19, 2011

Every being is a divine and eternal soul living in a temporal body. Every being was alive before birth and will live after death.

Every soul enters into physical life for the purpose of experience and education, that it may, in the course of many lifetimes, learn its true identity as a fragment of the Divine.

Life itself is a constant process of spiritual evolution and unfoldment, based on free choice, that continues until such time as we realize our true nature and return to the Divine from which we came.

No soul enters life to serve another, except by choice, but to serve its own purpose and that of the Divine from which it came.

All life is governed by natural and universal laws which precede and outweigh the laws of humanity. These laws, such as the law of karma, the law of attraction, and the law of free will, are decreed by God to order existence and assist each person to achieve life’s purpose.

No government can or should survive that derives its existence from the enforced submission of its people or that denies its people their basic rights and freedoms.

Life is a movement from one existence to another, in varied venues throughout the universe and in other universes and dimensions of existence. We are not alone in the universe but share it with other civilizations, most of them peace-loving, many of whom are more advanced than we are, some of whom can be seen with our eyes and some of whom cannot.

The evidence of our five senses is not the final arbiter of existence. Humans are spiritual as well as physical entities and the spiritual side of life transcends the physical. God is a Spirit and the final touchstone of God’s Truth is not physical but spiritual. The Truth is to be found within.

God is one and, because of this, souls are one. They form a unity. They are meant to live in peace and harmony together in a “common unity” or community. The use of force to settle affairs runs contrary to natural law. Every person should have the right to conduct his or her own affairs without force, as long as his or her choices do not harm another.

No person shall be forced into marriage against his or her will. No woman shall be forced to bear or not bear children, against her will. No person shall be forced to hold or not hold views or worship in a manner contrary to his or her choice. Nothing vital to existence shall be withheld from another if it is within the community’s power to give.

Every person shall retain the ability to think, speak, and act as they choose, as long as they not harm another. Every person has the right to choose, study and practice the education and career of their choice without interference, provided they not harm another.

No one has the right to kill another. No one has the right to steal from another. No one has the right to force himself or herself upon another in any way.

Any government that harms its citizens, deprives them of their property or rights without their consent, or makes offensive war upon its neighbors, no matter how it misrepresents the situation, has lost its legitimacy. No government may govern without the consent of its people. All governments are tasked with seeing to the wellbeing of their citizens. Any government which forces its citizens to see to its own wellbeing without attending to theirs has lost its legitimacy.

Men and women are meant to live fulfilling lives, free of want, wherever they wish and under the conditions they desire, providing their choices do not harm another and are humanly attainable.

Children are meant to live lives under the beneficent protection of all, free of exploitation, with unhindered access to the necessities of life, education, and health care.

All forms of exploitation, oppression, and persecution run counter to universal and natural law. All disagreements are meant to be resolved amicably.

Any human law that runs counter to natural and universal law is invalid and should not survive. The enactment or enforcement of human law that runs counter to natural and universal law brings consequences that cannot be escaped, in this life or another. While one may escape temporal justice, one does not escape divine justice.

All outcomes are to the greater glory of God and to God do we look for the fulfillment of our needs and for love, peace, and wisdom. So let it be. Aum/Amen.

"The Recalibration of Awareness – Apr 20/21, 2012 (Kryon channeled by Lee Carroll) (Subjects: Old Energy, Recalibration Lectures, God / Creator, Religions/Spiritual systems (Catholic Church, Priests/Nun’s, Worship, John Paul Pope, Women in the Church otherwise church will go, Current Pope won’t do it), Middle East, Jews, Governments will change (Internet, Media, Democracies, Dictators, North Korea, Nations voted at once), Integrity (Businesses, Tobacco Companies, Bankers/ Financial Institutes, Pharmaceutical company to collapse), Illuminati (Started in Greece, with Shipping, Financial markets, Stock markets, Pharmaceutical money (fund to build Africa, to develop)), Shift of Human Consciousness, (Old) Souls, Women, Masters to/already come back, Global Unity.... etc.) - (Text version)

“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Greece must make 'great sacrifices' for bail-out deal

BBC News

Greece says it has agreed a deal with the European Union and IMF to rescue the nation's embattled economy.

Prime Minister George Papandreou said the country would have to make "great sacrifices" to avoid bankruptcy.

The value of the rescue deal will be announced later. Details of the austerity cuts agreed in return for loans have been revealed.

There are fears that Greece's debt crisis could spread to other countries using the European single currency.

On Saturday, police again clashed with demonstrators in Athens who were protesting against government measures.

'Evident' anger

European finance ministers will gather in Brussels later on Sunday and are expected to approve the bail-out, which is which is designed to prevent Greece from defaulting on its enormous debt.

The rescue package is expected to amount to as much as 120bn euros (£100bn; $160bn) over three years.

In return the Greek government will unveil a fresh round of sweeping efficiencies, expected to include further tax rises and deeper cuts in pensions and public service pay.

Mr Papandreou told a televised cabinet meeting that active and retired public sector workers would bear the brunt of the new wave of budget cuts.

"With our decision today our citizens will have to make great sacrifices," he said, describing public anger at the new wave of cutbacks as "evident".

"Our national red line is to avoid bankruptcy," Mr Papandreou said, adding that "no-one could have imagined" the size of the debt that the previous government, which left office last year, had left behind.

'No easy path'

The austerity measures include:

Fresh budget cuts of 30bn euros over three years - with the aim of cutting its public deficit to less than 3% of GDP by 2014. It currently stands at 13.6%
Scrapping bonus payments for public sector workers
Banning increases in public sector salaries and pensions for at least three years
Increasing VAT, currently at 21%
Taxing illegal construction

Finance minister George Papaconstantinou said Greece had been called on to make a "basic choice between collapse or salvation".

New emergency legislation authorising the cuts and tax rises is now being drafted and is due to be put before parliament for approval by the end of the week.

European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said that Greece had committed to "a difficult but necessary reform process to put the Greek economy on a sustainable path and restore confidence" saying the package of austerity measures promised was "solid and credible".

This rescue would "be decisive to help Greece bring its economy back on track and preserve the stability of the Euro area", he added.

Finance Minister George Papaconstantinou will head to Brussels later for an special gathering of the 15 other eurozone finance ministers.

The eurozone countries are speeding up rescue efforts for Greece amid fears its debt crisis could pull down other members - with particular concerns having been raised about Portugal, Spain and Ireland.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel said that the deep cuts imposed on Greece in return for the rescue would spur other troubled eurozone to do all they could to avoid the same fate.

"These countries can see that the path taken by Greece with the IMF is not an easy one. As a result they will do all they can to avoid this themselves," Mrs Merkel told the Bild am Sonntag newspaper.

During Saturday's clash between demonstrators and police at the finance ministry in the capital a state TV truck was petrol-bombed and a prominent hotel was vandalised in the central Syntagma square.

Thousands of Greeks took part in May Day rallies called by trade unions and left-wing parties. Protesters hurled bottles and rocks and fought running battles with police in riot gear.

Our correspondent says the unions hope the rallies will demonstrate to the government, the eurozone, the IMF and the international markets, that they can mobilise enough people to defeat the new austerity programme.

The BBC's Malcolm Brabant in Athens says the latest study of Greek attitudes shows most people are angry and dismayed about the bail-out, because they do not feel responsible for causing the crisis.

Greece's economy is still deep in recession and on Sunday the government forecast that GDP would fall by 4% in 2010.

Its debt - currently at about 115% of GDP would rise to 149% by 2013 before falling, it added.
