Staying Positive - Healing the Planet!

In my Sunday newspaper I read a front page article which talked about how climate change poses a ‘major risk’ to forests all over the world.

We are all becoming more and more aware of environmental issues and there are so many things we can do to help minimise the damage that is being done to our natural world. Many people are embracing the challenge. For instance, I was fascinated to watch a TV documentary recently about a family who had managed to recycle nearly all their household waste in the past year. And in another programme a couple who had constructed their new home so that it was totally energy self sufficient.

Thinking of the disturbing prediction quoted in my newspaper this Sunday, I am reminded yet again of the power of the Star and the work we can do as a group in projecting the light to inspire and encourage all environmental workers, as well as every individual. The power of ‘the group’ is so strong. Thousands of ‘light workers’ all around the globe can truly make a difference. And with this in mind, on Saturday in the New Lands Temple we held a candlelit Earth Hour (linking in with the World Wide Fund for Nature.).

In the magic of the candlelit Temple, listening to a soothing Tibetan bowl concert by Andrew Lyddon, fears melted away and peace filled the heart. It is so necessary to find this place above all anxieties for our light work; to let go of the fear which such articles can instil, so that we can be channels for the highest vibrations. In spite of the gloomy forecasts we may read in the newspapers, our work with the Star is to keep positive at all times. We need to do our best individually and collectively at the outer level, but also be steadfast in our inner work. I truly believe that together we can bring healing for our beautiful planet. 

As White Eagle said some years ago: 

‘Do not think in terms of what is going to happen to the earth regarding wars and disputes and material things. Get above it all and go for the principle and the truth, the divine law which is behind all manifestations. Look above, brethren, into the heart of the Star and see only God and the one true light working through all creation to bring beauty, harmony, love and perfection.’
