You know, I think world peace is just as elusive as world domination. Both situations leap from the hearts of people with huge desires for ‘control of structure’.
There are probably hundreds of thousands of people who have been praying, and hoping for peace in the past 40 years or so, but we’re still being forced into aggressive confrontations by our ‘leaders’ regardless of the protests.
I imagine this kind of thing has been going on for the entire history of the human race, and I wonder what peace activists would do if there were no war actions for them to protest against?
Perhaps the best we, as individuals, can do is to make sure OUR actions are withing the boundaries of what WE OURSELVES can handle. That is, each of us makes our individual ’space’ as energised or as peaceful as we can cope with.
It’s said it was the power of Spellcraft that prevented Hitler from invading England. I see no reason why such a thing might not be so! The coven(s) accredited with the casting were heartily defending their ‘personal’ territory. The Spell was not cast for any altruistic reason, but was caused to create a Reflective and Protective barrier to guard lives.
As you probably know, if the people performing it are open-minded enough to realise a spell needs a direct focus, the spell (conjuration, prayer, request, supplication, sacrifice etc) will work. Most spells work under those conditions.
However, the need for general comfort and security is basic to most people, so a general get-together where everyone joins together in a general hope for things to become peaceful – no matter how vehement the request – is probably too general and unfocused to do much more than give the people in the group a sense of having done something “good”.
In the case of the extreme action of 11/9 (we put the numbers for the date around the other way here in Australia, and we use a different phone number for emergency calls, so the general underlying threat implied when making an emergency call doesn’t have the same impact here as it was designed to do in the US), and bearing in mind that it probably took a while to gather together and train the people who took part in it, we need to look at who really was BEHIND it and direct our focus towards a Reflective and Protective barrier against them SPECIFICALLY – and with the SAME ENERGY and FOCUS as they used to organise and carry out that action.
Of course, the ‘paradox’ of that one is that anyone who chooses a Reflective and Protective barrier is returning whatever harshness of mind was originally instigated to the instigator. Which means someone, or some group of people, will be brought up short in what could easily be a painful place for them.
Justified? Is such a result in line with a desire for peace?
