The London Bomb Blasts In
The Wake of September 11
By Spiritual Teacher Dave Oshana
Dave Oshana wrote a spiritual commentary
immediately after the London Bomb Blasts. In it he recalls his
inner experiences at the time of the September 11 attacks in
America.
Some of the concepts maybe new for
many student but there is no time to give a full explanation.
Therefore, the article is being distributed as it is.
Oshana will make a special visit to
London after the 11-day July Retreat. Details will be released
soon.
Immediately after the 9-11 terrorist
attacks in America, my office was deluged with requests for spiritual
commentary from journals, web-sites and individuals.
Whilst many spiritual leaders did speak
out, especially in America, I found myself unable to make a meaningful
public statement. The world froze in horror, as the TV networks
endlessly re-played a shaky movie of planes crashing into the
Twin Towers of the World Trade Center - the terrifying images
indelibly etched upon the global psyche.
My immediate concerns were for the spirit-souls
of the recent victims, who not realising that they were dead,
frenziedly sought for their physical bodies. When the disorientation
and shock from the blasts wore off, these spirit-souls, began
to experience unbearable pain. Every soul aches to forget the
traumatic memories which in time it must face.
Spiritual aid-work is not easily verbalised,
especially during a state of emergency crisis. Those who know
specialised healing arts, such as, releasing earth-bound souls,
are too busy helping. There's no time to talk.
The London bomb attacks hit close to
my old home, and I know some whose day was affected by the attacks.
A relative, who had been assigned work near one "sudden
kill-zone" was fortunately un-assigned just one hour before
the carnage erupted.
I was in deep contemplation within an
ancient stone chapel at the foot of Glastonbury Tor, when the
Twin Towers of the World Trade Center exploded on September 11,
2001. Soon after, the first bone-shaking shockwaves of death
arrived on the etheric plane - manifesting through the portal
known as the "Mists of Avalon". The day after, peace
pilgrims converted that chapel into a memoriam shrine, filling
it with candles, prayer-letters and news-cuttings.
Tragically, it was a disaster waiting
to happen. No words of consolation are possible in the shocking
light of truth where cold reality prevails. These particular
attacks had long existed as hate-thought-forms waiting to manifest
through human beings.
Mountains of negativity and hate exist
in many countries, not only America. The only saving grace is
that those mountains (and valleys) of darkness are generally
neutralised by equal amounts of love, light and positivity (symbolised
by the "Two Towers" in "Lord of The Rings").
The consequences of upsetting this delicate balance of forces
in the wrong direction is full-scale destruction of the human
race.
When darkness rips a hole in the light-shield
around the Earth, negative entities flood in and start to affect
human behaviour. Wise old traditions are discontinued, and new
behaviours are installed in the populace. Every new crime against
humanity increases the grip of darkness over a region, reducing
the peace in ever-tighter and more vicious cycles.
No nation is immune from the complex
laws of historical cause-and-effect - its karmic legacy. Whilst
fickle humans easily forget the sins of previous generations,
the Universe never forgets. Everything is on record - somewhere.
How complex is the karmic web of darkness
installed in an ancient city such as London, capital of the former
British Empire? What hidden energies preside over its various
neighbourhoods where terrible things strangely recur with frightening
regularity? In what spirit were London's many power-broking buildings
crafted, such as, the Tower of London, the Houses of Parliament,
Buckingham Place, the London Stock Exchange, Lambeth Palace and
so on? Real London is a hidden city, whose secret history cannot
be discovered by ordinary investigative methods.
There is no desire here to blame or point
the finger. All human beings suffer from murderous activities,
even the perpetrators, who are generally controlled by invisible
forces. A victim does not necessarily deserve what happens to
him. There are innocent casualties in war, and our Earth is a
spiritual battlefield. These complex matters, cannot be understood
through glib, simplistic metaphysical phrases, no matter how
well-intentioned.
Full understanding comes slowly. The
Universe is not in a hurry to give up all her "open secrets"
but they are there for the taking - if you find the appropriate
keys. As spiritual workers, understanding is not our primary
goal. We all have enough information to live and work with. Understanding
comes naturally when we are engaged in the process of saving
souls. The Universe freely gives such vital information to her
helpers.
For conditioned souls trapped inside
the endless cycle of reincarnation - death comes, often tragically
and frighteningly. An individual who realises the immortality
of the soul experiences freedom from the fear of eternal annihilation.
This is the real spiritual work that must be done.
It was obvious to me, when I was a Central
London resident, that London was "marked for death".
Of course, no one really wants to hear this. For many years,
I advised my students to "get out of London" and "avoid
the Underground".
The bomb blasts came immediately after
Londoner's celebrated their "sweet victory of success"
at winning the Olympic hosts vote. Sour soon followed sweet.
Although, the alleged reason for the bomb attacks was the G8
summit in Scotland, neither the real motive nor the actual group
responsible have been identified. Truth is the first casualty
in any propaganda war and the public may never know what really
happened.
The consciousness of London has been
steadily degenerating for many years. The streets are polluted,
noisy and crime-infested. Ignorant individuals, possibly drunk
or stoned, acted-out on camera behind sober news-readers as emergency
workers sought for victim's bodies at what was once my local
London Underground Tube station.
Unnecessary death and destruction are
a daily, unreported, reality in London, whose over-stretched
welfare and emergency services cannot adequately care for her
cityizens, especially in times of great need such as these.
The London bomb blasts achieved non-stop
international media coverage not only because of their magnitude
but also their political significance. The underground explosions
on packed rush hour trains were calculated to cause maximum damage,
terror and paralysis.
Unfortunately, this recent atrocity is
only one in a series of destructive waves which come crashing
onto British shores. A violent crescendo is coming which will
rock the UK, and the rest of the world, long into the future.
Unfortunately, there is nothing that ordinary individuals can
do. Some will die, and some will live on.
However, with each terrorist shockwave,
the listening individual can hear the "still, small voice
of Grace", whose soothing tones, lead the spiritual seeker
to enquire within, to drop the illusion of the body, and to discover
the security and sure peace found in experiencing the ancient
truth that "the soul is eternal" and our true home.
I will continue to regularly fly to London,
from my peaceful pine-forested ocean abode in Finland, to awaken
spiritual seekers to their true birth-right. Please do the same
in your own way, wherever you find yourself in this life.
