4th story
"WATER IS THE NEW GOLD!" is the tragic projection into the globe of Life from corporations, and it is also a spiritual projection into a fundamental element of Life. This bold declaration is testimony to the fact we've learned nothing from the previous centuries of despoiling resources, land, life, and that integrity of spirit is meaningless as we move forward clinging to what does not work, does not restore, or benefit life. As consumers we pretend things will change as corporate power brokers tells us what to believe, how to act, react, buy and sell our souls for the trinkets that inform lower consciousness.
A culture, like ours, that believes in the reduction of the value of sacred life, and the seduction of ‘more’ continues to live in the way of one who kills his grandchildren to feed his children. This is the same creature that eats his brother to feed himself.
A Sirmiq Aattuq Wisdom Keeper told me, "A person's religion is reflected in how they treat the water."
