Verdade Mentira Devachan

 

Todo mundo que diz a verdade realmente promove a evolução da humanidade e todos que mentem a obstruem.

Portanto, existe essa lei oculta: vista com os olhos do espírito, uma mentira é um assassinato.

Não apenas mata uma forma astral, mas também é um suicídio.

Todos que mentem colocam obstáculos ao longo de seu próprio caminho.

Tais efeitos são observados em toda parte no mundo espiritual.

O clarividente vê que tudo o que um humano pensa, sente e vivencia tem o seu efeito no mundo astral.

A disposição do ser humano, seu temperamento, qualidades de longo prazo do caráter do ser humano, pensamentos que não sejam meramente transitórios – todas as correntes contínuas, não somente no mundo astral mas também no mundo do Devachan.

Um ser humano com uma disposição feliz é uma fonte, um centro, de certos processos no Devachan.  Um ser humano que é hipócrita tem o efeito de multiplicar as essências e substâncias associadas à hipocrisia no caráter humano.

Assim, a Ciência Espiritual de Rudolf Steiner (Antroposofia) nos mostra que não vivemos como seres isolados, mas que nossos pensamentos produzem continuamente formas que lançam sombras no mundo de Devachan e o permeiam com todos os tipos de substâncias e essências.

As quatro regiões do Devachan  "Continental", a "Oceânica", a "Atmosférica" e a região das  "Inspirações" originais são influenciadas o tempo todo pelos pensamentos, sentimentos e sensações dos seres humanos.

Pouco tempo após este ciclo de palestras, Rudolf Steiner passou a chamar seu trabalho de Ciência Espiritual ou Antroposofia e se separou em definitivo da Sociedade Teosófica da qual foi Presidente e na qual ele já falava sobre a sua abordagem de Ciência Espiritual.

Everyone who tells the truth actually promotes the evolution of humanity and everyone who lies, obstructs it.

Therefore there is this occult law: Seen with the eyes of Spirit, A LIE IS A MURDER.

Not only does it kill an astral form, but it is also self-murder.

Everyone who lies places obstacles along his own path.

Such effects are to be observed everywhere in the spiritual world.

The clairvoyant sees that EVERYTHING A MAN THINKS, FEELS AND EXPERIENCES has its effect in the ASTRAL WORLD.

A man's disposition, temperament, enduring qualities of character, thoughts that are not merely transient—all this streams continually not only into the astral world but into the world of Devachan as well.

A man with a happy disposition is a source, a centre, of certain processes in Devachan; a man who is hypocritical has the effect of multiplying the essences and substances associated with hypocrisy in human character.

Thus Spiritual Science shows us that we do not live as isolated beings but that OUR THOUGHTS continually produce forms which cast shadows in the world of Devachan and permeate it with all kinds of substances and essences.

The four regions of Devachan-the “Continental,” the “Oceanic,” the “Atmospheric” and the region of original “Inspirations” are influenced all the time by the thoughts, feelings and sensations of human beings.

VI. The Law of Destiny

30 May 1907, Munich

We come today to what man experiences in the physical world, in so far as these experiences are determined by an earlier incarnation. At the outset it must be emphasised that life is not determined by previous incarnations alone but also, though in a small degree, by the present life. The law of how man's past, present and future are connected, is called in Spiritual-scientific literature, the Law of Karma. It is the true law of human destiny; an individual life is only a specific application of the great law of the Cosmos, for the law of Karma is a universal, cosmic law with a specific application in the life of a human being. Whenever we envisage a connection between preceding conditions and subsequent effects, we are thinking in line with this law. I want therefore to explain in detail the individual application of this cosmic law in the life of the human being.

Suppose we have two vessels of water in front of us and put into one of the vessels a red-hot iron ball. The water will hiss and become warm. If we take the ball out and put it into the other vessel, the water in this case neither hisses nor gets warm, because the ball is no longer red hot; it has been cooled by immersion in the first vessel of water. The effect of the behaviour of the iron ball in the first vessel determines its behaviour in the second. Thus are cause and effect always connected in physical life. Subsequent behaviour depends upon what has happened previously.

Another example is afforded by certain animals whose organ of sight has atrophied in consequence of having made their home in dark holes and caves. In such animals, the substances which formerly nourished the eyes were led to other parts of the body because as it was no longer necessary for the eye to see, these substances were not required. The eyes atrophied and remain atrophied in all subsequent generations. Through their earlier wanderings these animals determined the actual behaviour of their organs; the destiny of subsequent generations was determined by what had happened in the past; these animals prepared their destiny for the future. And it is the same in human life.

Man determines his future by his past and because his innermost being is not confined to one incarnation but passes through many, the causes of what confronts him in a given life are to be sought in an earlier life.

We will now consider the chain of happenings which can be understood if we think of the consequences of human deeds, thoughts and feelings. It is so often said in everyday life: Thoughts are duty-free!—meaning that we can think what we like and nobody in the external world will be affected. This is one important point where a man who has really grasped spiritual impulses is at variance with the materialistic thinker.

The materialist agrees that injury is caused if he throws a stone at a man, but he thinks that a thought of hatred which he may harbour against a fellow-creature, does not hurt him. Those however who have real knowledge of the world know that far, far stronger effects proceed from a thought filled with hatred than can ever be caused by a stone. Everything that a man thinks and feels has its effects in the outer world and the seer can follow with great precision the effect of a loving thought that goes out to another man, and the very different effect that is produced by a thought filled with hatred. When you send out a loving thought to someone the seer perceives a form of light shaped like a sort of flower-calyx, playing around his etheric and astral bodies, thereby contributing something to his vitality and happiness. On the other hand a thought of hatred bores its way into the etheric and astral bodies like a wounding arrow.

Very varied observations are to be made in this domain. There is a tremendous difference in the astral world if one voices a thought that is true or a thought that is untrue. A thought is related to a thing and is true if it coincides with that thing. Every event that happens causes an effect in the higher worlds. If someone relates this event truly, an astral form rays out from the teller, unites with the form emanating from the event itself, and both are strengthened. These strengthened forms help to make our spiritual world richer and more full of content—which is necessary if humanity is to make progress. But if the event is related untruthfully, in a way that does not coincide with the facts, then the thought-form of the teller comes up against the thought-form that has proceeded from the event; the two thought-forms collide, causing mutual destruction. These destructive “explosions” caused by lies work on the body like a tumour which destroys the organism. Thus do lies kill the astral forms which have arisen and must arise, and in this way they obstruct or paralyse a part of evolution. Everyone who tells the truth actually promotes the evolution of humanity and everyone who lies, obstructs it. Therefore there is this occult law: Seen with the eyes of Spirit, a lie is a murder. Not only does it kill an astral form, but it is also self-murder. Everyone who lies places obstacles along his own path. Such effects are to be observed everywhere in the spiritual world. The clairvoyant sees that everything a man thinks, feels and experiences has its effect in the astral world. A man's disposition, temperament, enduring qualities of character, thoughts that are not merely transient—all this streams continually not only into the astral world but into the world of Devachan as well. A man with a happy disposition is a source, a centre, of certain processes in Devachan; a man who is hypocritical has the effect of multiplying the essences and substances associated with hypocrisy in human character. Thus Spiritual Science shows us that we do not live as isolated beings but that our thoughts continually produce forms which cast shadows in the world of Devachan and permeate it with all kinds of substances and essences. The four regions of Devachan-the “Continental,” the “Oceanic,” the “Atmospheric” and the region of original “Inspirations” are influenced all the time by the thoughts, feelings and sensations of human beings.

The higher regions of Devachan, in which the Akasha Chronicle appears, are influenced by deeds. What happens in the external world plays into the very highest region of Devachan—the “world of Reason.” We shall understand in this way how on his descent to a new incarnation the human being reconstitutes his astral body and attaches it to himself All his thoughts and feelings and experiences had become integral parts of the astral world, leaving many traces there. If his thoughts had contained much truth, these traces gather together to form a good astral body for him. What he had incorporated into the lower Devachanic world as his temperament and so on, gathers together the new etheric body, and from the highest regions of Devachan where the Akasha Chronicle is to be found, his past deeds play their part in establishing the station, the localisation of the physical body. Here are the forces which bring a human being to a definite locality. If a man has done evil to someone, this is an external fact which reaches into the highest regions of Devachan; when the time comes to enter a new physical body it works as forces which the man has left in his trail, and impels him—under the guidance of higher Beings—to the associations and to the place where he will now be able to experience the effects of his past deeds in the physical world.

Experiences in the external world which do not inwardly affect us very strongly work upon our astral body in the next incarnation, drawing into it corresponding feelings and a characteristic life of thought. If a man has spent his life profitably, if he has been very observant and has acquired wide knowledge, his astral body in the next incarnation will be born with special gifts in these directions. Experience and acquired knowledge thus express themselves, in the next incarnation, in the astral body. Inner experience, all that a man feels in the way of happiness, sorrow and so on—this works down to the etheric body in the next incarnation and imbues it with lasting propensities. The etheric body of a man who experiences much happiness will have a temperament disposed to joy. A man who tries to perform many good deeds, will, as a result of the feelings evoked, have a decided talent in the next life for good deeds; he will also possess a thoroughly developed conscience and will be a person of high moral principles.

That of which the etheric body is the bearer in the present life—the permanent character, talents etc.—appears in the next life in the physical body. For instance, a man who has developed bad inclinations and passions in one life will be born in the next with an unhealthy physical body. On the other hand, a man who enjoys good health, who has great powers of endurance, unfolded good qualities in the previous life. A person who is continually prone to illness, has worked bad impulses into himself. Thus we have it in our power to create for ourselves health or illness in so far as these inhere in the natural constitution of the physical body. All that is required is the elimination of bad tendencies for we then prepare a healthy, vigorous physical body for the next life.

It is possible to observe, in all details, how the tendencies that were present in one life, work, in the next, on the physical body. A person who is disposed to love everything around him, who is loving to all creatures, who pours out love, will have in the next incarnation a physical body that remains young and fresh until late in life. Love for all beings, the cultivation of sympathy, gives rise to a physical body that preserves its youthful vigour. A man who is full of antipathy against other human beings, who criticises and grumbles at everything, trying to keep aloof from it all, produces, as the result of these tendencies, a physical body that ages and becomes wrinkled prematurely. Thus are the tendencies and passions of one life carried over to the physical, bodily life of subsequent incarnations.

The very details can be observed and it can be found that a passion for acquisition, an urge that makes a person hoard possessions and becomes a rooted disposition in him, produces, in the next life, a tendency to infectious diseases in the physical body. Absolute confirmation is possible of cases where a pronounced tendency to infectious diseases leads back to an earlier, very strong sense of acquisition, the bearer of this quality being the etheric body. On the other hand disinterested striving, free from any desire for self-profit and wishing only to work for the well-being of all mankind—this tendency in the etheric body gives rise, in the next life, to a strong power of resistance to infectious diseases.

Thus knowledge of the connection between the physical and the astral world enables us to have a clear understanding of the world in its inner process of development; things are often connected in quite a different way from what people like to imagine. Many people deplore pain and suffering, but from a higher point of view this is quite unjustified, for if they are overcome and the person is ready for a new incarnation, suffering and pain are the sources of wisdom, prudence and comprehensiveness of vision. Even in writing emanating from the modern, materialistic standpoint, we find it stated that there is something like “crystallised pain” in the face of every thinker. What this materialistically minded author says here has long been known to the occultist, for the greatest wisdom of the world is acquired by the quiet endurance of pain and suffering; this creates wisdom in the next incarnation.

No one who shudders at the unpleasantness of pain, who is unwilling to bear pain can create in himself the foundations for wisdom; indeed when we look deeper, we cannot really bemoan illnesses, for regarded from a higher standpoint, from the standpoint of Eternity, they take on a very different aspect. Illnesses calmly borne often appear in the next life as great physical beauty; great physical beauty in a human being is acquired at the cost of illnesses in the preceding life. Such is the connection between impairment of the body through illness, particularly also through external circumstances, and beauty.

The following words of the French writer, Fabre d'Olivet can be applied to this very remarkable connection: “When we observe the life of the human being, it often seems to be like the formation of the pearl in the oyster-shell—the pearl can only come into being through disease.” And so it is actually in human life: Beauty is karmically connected with illnesses and is their result. When I said, however, that a man who unfolds reprehensible passions creates in himself the disposition to illness, it must be fully realised that in this case it is a matter of inherent tendency to illnesses. It is a different matter if a man falls ill through working in a poisonous atmosphere; this too may be a cause of illness but is not connected with the inherent constitution of the physical body.

Everything that is a fact on the physical plane, everything that constitutes a deed, expressing itself in such a way that it has a definite effect in the physical world, from a footstep and movement of the hand to the most complicated processes, for instance the building of a house, comes to the human being in a later incarnation from outside as an actual physical effect. As you see, we live our life from within-outwards. What lives as joy, pain, happiness, sorrow in the astral body appears again in the etheric body; the lasting impulses and passions that are rooted in the etheric body appear in the physical body as constitutional tendencies; deeds that require the agency of the physical body appear as outer destiny in the next incarnation. What the astral body does becomes the destiny of the etheric body; what the etheric body does becomes the destiny of the physical body; and what the physical body does comes back from outside in the next incarnation as a physical reality.

Here you have the actual point where external destiny intervenes in human life. This working of destiny may be postponed for a long time but must inevitably approach the human being sooner or later. If a man's life is followed through the different incarnations it can always be seen that his life in a subsequent incarnation is prepared by Beings who work at his physical embodiment in such a way that he is led to a particular place in order that his destiny may overtake him.

Here again is an example drawn from life. At a Vehmic Court in the Middle Ages a number of judges condemned a man to death and executed the sentence themselves. Earlier incarnations of the judges and of the dead man were investigated and it was found that they had all been contemporaries; the prisoner who had been put to death had been the Chief of a tribe who had ordered the death of those who were now the Vehmic judges. The deed of the former physical life had created the connection between the persons, and the forces had inscribed themselves in the Akasha Chronicle. When a man again comes down to incarnation, these forces cause him to be born at the same time and place as those to whom he is tied in this way, and they work out his destiny. The Akasha Chronicle is a veritable source of power in which everything that is due to be expiated between one human being and another, is inscribed. Some people can sense these processes, but very, very few are really conscious of them.

Suppose a man has a profession in which he is apparently happy and contented; for some reason or other he is forced to leave it and finding no other occupation in the same place is driven far away—into another country, where he has to strike out on an entirely new line of work. Here he finds a person with whom he has in some way to be associated. What has happened in such a case? He had once lived with the person whom he has now met and remained in his debt for some reason or other. This is inscribed in the Akasha Chronicle and the forces have led him to this place in order that he may meet the man and discharge his debt.

Between birth and death the human being is perpetually within a network of these forces of soul which weave around him on all sides; they are the directing powers of his life. You bear within you all the time the workings of earlier lives; and all the time you are experiencing the outcome of former incarnations.

You will realise, therefore, that your lives are guided by Powers of which you yourselves are not aware. The etheric body is worked upon by forms which you yourselves previously called into existence on the astral plane; beings and forces in the higher regions of Devachan, inscribed by you yourselves in the Akasha Chronicle, work upon your destiny. These forces or beings are not unknown to the occultist; they have their own place in the ranks of similar beings. You must realise that in the astral body and in the etheric body, as well as in the physical body, you feel the workings of other beings; all that you do involuntarily, everything to which you are impelled, is due to the working of other beings; it is not born from nothingness. The various members of man's nature are all the time actually permeated and filled by other beings, and many of the exercises given by an initiated teacher are for the purpose of driving out these beings in order that a man may become more and more free.

The beings who permeate the astral body and make it unfree are known as “Demons.” Your astral body is always interpenetrated by demons and the beings you yourselves generate through your true or false thoughts are of such a nature that they gradually grow into demons. There are good demons, generated by good thoughts; but bad thoughts, above all those that are untruthful, generate demoniacal forms of the most terrible and frightful kind and these interlard the astral body—if I may so express it. The etheric body is also permeated by beings from which man must free himself; these beings are called “Spectres”, “ghosts.” And finally, permeating the physical body there are beings known as “Phantoms.” Besides these three classes there are yet other beings, the “Spirits,” who drive the Ego hither and thither—the Ego itself also being a Spirit. In actual fact the human being generates such creatures who then determine his inner and outer destiny when he descends to incarnation. These beings work in your life in such a way that you can feel the “demons” created by your astral body, the “ghosts” or “spectres” created by your etheric body and the “phantoms” created by your physical body. All these beings are related to you and approach you when the time comes for reincarnation.

You will remember that religious documents express these truths. When the Bible speaks of the driving-out of demons, this is not an abstraction but is to be taken literally. Christ Jesus healed those who were possessed of demons; He drove the demons out of the astral body. This is an actual process and, the passage is to be taken literally. The wise man Socrates also speaks of his “Daimon” which worked in his astral body. This was a good demon; such beings are not always evil.

There are, however, terrible and corrupt demonic beings. All demons that are born of lying work in such a way as to throw man back in his development; and because owing to the lies of eminent figures in world-history demons who grow into very powerful beings are all the time being created, we hear of the “Spirits of Hindrance”, “Spirits of obstruction.” In this sense Faust says to Mephistopheles: “Thou art the Father of all hindrances!”

The individual human being, membered as he is within mankind as a whole, has an effect upon the whole world according to whether he speaks the truth or lies; for beings created by truth or by lies produce quite different effects. Imagine a people which was composed entirely of liars, the astral plane would be populated solely by the corresponding demons and these demons would be able to express themselves in constitutional tendency to epidemics. Thus there is a certain species of bacilli who are the carriers of infectious diseases; these beings are the progeny of the lies told by human beings; they are nothing else than physically embodied demons generated by lies.

You see therefore that lies and untruths of earlier ages appear in world-karma as a definite host of beings. A passage in Faust indicates how much deep truth is contained in myths and sagas. You will find there a connection between vermin and lies in the role played by rats and mice in connection with Mephistopheles, the Spirit of Lies. Legends have often preserved wonderful indications of the connection between the spiritual world and the physical world.

In order to understand the Law of Karma we shall have to speak about many other things. The Movement of Spiritual Science itself is the outcome of an intimate knowledge of the Law of Karma.

You have just heard that forces which lie in the etheric body work upon the physical body in the next incarnation. Thus the attitude of mind, the tendency to think along particular lines, works upon the physical body. A spiritual or a materialistic attitude of mind is by no means without importance for the next incarnation. A man who has some knowledge of the higher worlds—he need only believe in their existence—has in his next life a well centred physical body and tranquil nervous system, a body which he has well in hand, including the very nerves. On the other hand, a man who believes in nothing except what is to be found in the world of the senses, communicates this kind of thinking to his physical body and in the next incarnation has a body prone to nervous diseases, a frail, fidgety body in which there is no steadfast centre of will. The materialist scatters himself in pure details; the Spirit binds together, for Spirit is Unity!

The tendency or disposition comes to light, in the case of the individual, through destiny in his next incarnation, but it continues through the generations, so that the sons and grand-children of materialistic fathers have to pay for this by badly constituted nervous systems and nervous disorders. An “epoch” of nerves is the outcome of the materialistic attitude of the last century. And as a counteraction, the Great Teachers of mankind have recognised the necessity of allowing the inflow of spiritual ways of thinking.

Materialism has also found its way into religion. There are people who “believe” in the spiritual worlds but have not the will to acquire real knowledge of them. Can it be said that such people are not materialists? It is materialism in religion which makes people want to have the mystery of the Six Day of Creation—as the Bible describes the evolution of the worlds—displayed before their very eyes; it is materialism which speaks of Christ Jesus as an “historical personality” and ignores the Mystery of Golgotha. Materialism in natural science is primarily a consequence of materialism in religion, and would not exist if the religious life were not saturated with materialism. Men who have been too lazy to deepen their religious life—it is they who have introduced materialism into science. And the derangement of the nerves caused by this materialism works itself out among racial stocks and among whole peoples, as well as in the individual.

If the stream of spirituality is not powerful enough to influence lazy and easy-going people as well, the karmic consequence of nervous derangement will gain greater and greater hold over humanity, and just as in the Middle Ages there were epidemics of leprosy, so, in future, materialistic thinking will give rise to grave nervous diseases; there will be epidemics of insanity besetting whole peoples.

Insight into this domain of the Law of Karma reveals that Spiritual Science should never be a matter of strife but a healing power in humanity. The more spiritual men become, the more will troubles connected with diseases of the nervous system and derangement in the life of soul, be expunged.

Agradecimento olímpico Tad Coffin/Robert Malone

 Below in English Language

Um agradecido aceno de cabeça olímpico ao Divino. Tad Coffin.  Publicado por Robert Malone MD, MS. 29 de julho

Tad Coffin, vencedor individual  e pelo time, de duas medalhas de ouro,  nos Jogos Olímpicos de Montreal de 1976, pelo evento olímpico equestre "Equestrian Thress-Day Event”

https://www.malone.news/p/a-grateful-olympic-nod-to-the-divine

A inclusão de drag queen na paródia da Última Ceia na cerimônia de abertura olímpica ofendeu profundamente muitos cristãos e não-cristãos, inclusive eu.

Como cristão e como atleta olímpico (Olimpíadas de Montreal de 1976, equestre), estou

aturdido e perplexo com a decisão de alienar uma parte tão grande da população mundial enquanto reivindica a inclusão, apelando à natureza de vanguarda da cultura francesa.

Estou profundamente decepcionado com o profundo fracasso do Comitê Olímpico da França em fornecer orientações razoáveis ​​sobre a narrativa e os scripts desta cerimônia.

Portanto, participarei do coro daqueles que criticam o comitê por seu julgamento notavelmente ruim.

Pode até ser um experimento de pensamento útil considerar como o propósito desta cerimônia pode ser reimaginado. Desta maneira, pode ser mais fácil julgar o pensamento falho por trás dessa catástrofe teatral e contrastá-la com o que poderia ter sido ou deveria ter sido.

É certo e justo que a cerimônia de abertura deve celebrar os atletas e sua variedade de talentos para se maravilhar com a assembleia de tantos,  de todos os cantos do mundo, sua competição pacífica em eventos tão abrangentes e compartilhar suas histórias, esperanças e sonhos para a glória atlética.

Similarmente, a nação anfitriã dos Jogos Olímpicos tem uma oportunidade única e merecida de mostrar sua própria história, cultura e ricas tradições. É também assim que deve ser.

De onde vêm os presentes do atletismo, do trabalho duro e da perseverança? Eu tenho talento para cavalgar, mas certamente não me lembro de enviar um pedido pré-natal para tais habilidades. Enquanto algumas características sejam herdadas, todo mundo sabe que a paternidade dificilmente garante a grandeza atlética. Por exemplo, meus irmãos têm muitos outros talentos, mas não são cavaleiros de calibre olímpico.

Ser grato a Deus Todo -Poderoso por essas habilidades não é irracional. Certamente, há amplo precedente para ver evidências da mão de Deus ao longo da história humana. Não é necessário que todos concordem, mas ter a humildade em reconhecer que não é tudo o que a pessoa está fazendo é, no mínimo, mais atraente do que celebrar publicamente o narcisismo e fazer pouco caso de pessoas de fé.

Portanto, parece apropriado que uma reunião de muitos dos melhores atletas do mundo inclua pelo menos um aceno agradecido ao divino.

E sobre a terra na qual andamos de bicicleta, corremos, pulamos e treinamos? E sobre a água na qual nadamos, surfamos, velejamos e fazemos caiaque? A terra na qual confiamos para nossa própria saúde e bem-estar? É este mundo não possivelmente um ato de criação por um criador? Devemos apenas assumir que este mundo, esse universo apareceu do nada e que somos tão inteligentes, colocando-o para um bom uso? Realmente? Novamente, certamente não é irracional ser pelo menos grato por sua existência. Por milênios, muitos procuraram elogiar o criador por seu trabalho útil.

E o que fez o francês, francês? Minha educação como cavaleiro é uma herança do famoso Cadre Noir, o Corpo de Elite da Grande Cavalaria de Napoleão. Sua busca está em aperfeiçoar a parceria do homem com talvez o maior e mais nobre presente de Deus, o cavalo.

A história longa, única dos franceses certamente não foi construída sobre as maquinações das drag queens. A menos que minha leitura da história esteja totalmente errada, os fundamentos teológicos da França ancoraram sua cultura nacional. Disputar isto, rebaixar sua importância, enquanto eleva simultaneamente alguma paródia grotesca de um momento único de significado histórico e religioso, é estar enfeitiçado com nada mais próximo que o demoníaco.

Vamos retornar a uma celebração mais simples e autêntica do que está à nossa frente: a elevação de atletas notáveis ​​organizados por uma nação notável. Que nossas cerimônias futuras estendam o reconhecimento e a gratidão a ambos, horizontalmente ao nosso próximo e verticalmente ao Deus transcendente.

 

A Grateful Opympic Nod to the Divine by Tad Coffin/Robert Malone MD, MS. Jul 29

Tad Coffin, winner of two gold medals in the 1976 Montreal Olympics, for the individual and team Olympic.

 https://www.malone.news/p/a-grateful-olympic-nod-to-the-divine

The inclusion of a drag queen parody of the Last Supper in the Olympic Opening Ceremony has deeply offended many Christians and non-Christians alike, including myself.

As a Christian and as an Olympic athlete (1976 Montreal Olympics, equestrian), I am stunned and mystified by the decision to alienate such a large portion of the world's population while claiming inclusiveness and appealing to the avant-garde nature of French culture.

I am deeply disappointed by the French Olympic Committee's profound failure to provide reasonable guidance regarding the narrative and scripting of this Ceremony.

Therefore, I'll join the chorus of those who criticize the committee for its remarkably poor judgment. 

It may be a useful thought experiment to consider how the purpose of this Ceremony might be re-imagined. In this way, it may be easier to judge the flawed thinking behind this theatrical catastrophe and contrast it to what might have been or should have been.

It is right and just that the Opening Ceremony should celebrate the athletes and their array of talents to marvel at the assembly of so many from the far reaches of the globe, their peaceful competition in such wide-ranging events, and share in their stories, hopes and dreams for athletic glory.

Similarly, the host nation of the Olympic Games has a unique and well-earned opportunity to showcase its own rich history, culture, and traditions. That is also how it should be.

Where do the gifts of athleticism, hard work, and perseverance come from? I have a talent for riding but certainly don't remember submitting a prenatal request for such abilities. While some characteristics are inherited, everyone knows that parentage hardly guarantees athletic greatness. For instance, my siblings have many other gifts but are not Olympic-caliber riders.

Being grateful to God Almighty for these abilities is not unreasonable. Certainly, there is ample precedent for seeing evidence of God's hand throughout human history. It's not necessary that everyone agree, but having the humility to recognize that it's not all of one's own doing is, at the very least, more appealing than publicly celebrating narcissism and trolling people of faith. 

Therefore, it seems appropriate that a gathering of many of the world’s best athletes should at least include a grateful nod to the Divine. 

What about the land we ride on, bike, run, jump, and train on? What of the water that we swim in, surf on, sail, and kayak through? The earth that we rely on for our very health and well-being? Is this world not possibly an act of Creation by a Creator? Should we just assume that this world, this universe appeared out of nothing and that we're so clever, putting it to such good use? Really? Again, it's certainly not unreasonable to be at least grateful for its existence. For millennia, many have sought to praise the Creator for his handy work. 

And what has made the French French? My education as a rider is an inheritance from the famed Cadre Noir, the elite corps of Napoleon's grand cavalry. Its pursuit has been perfecting man's partnership with perhaps God's greatest and noblest gift, the horse.

The long, unique, and storied history of the French has most certainly not been built on the machinations of drag queens. Unless my reading of history is all wrong, France's theological underpinnings have anchored its national culture. To dispute this, to demean its importance while simultaneously elevating some grotesque parody of a unique moment of historical and religious significance, is to be enthralled with nothing short of the demonic.  

Let's return to a simpler, authentic celebration of what's in front of us: the elevation of remarkable athletes hosted by a remarkable nation. May our future ceremonies extend recognition and gratitude both horizontally to our fellow man and vertically to the transcendent God.

Perfeição. Ilusão socialista. Rudolf Steiner.

Qualquer pessoa capaz de ver a realidade,  assim como ver através dela,  sabe que este mundo no plano físico nunca pode alcançar a perfeição. No entanto, as pessoas que pensam materialisticamente têm a ilusão de que a perfeição pode ser alcançada no plano físico. Esta é a fonte de muitas outras ilusões, e particularmente é a característica da ilusão socialista da presente época.

As ilusões das pessoas vêm em todos os tons de significado.  Elas são coloridas pela política partidária e assim por diante. As pessoas que assumem uma visão liberal (progressista) do mundo e da vida construíram seu próprio ideal do mundo físico e acreditam que se realizarem isto, terão o paraíso na terra. Tudo o que os socialistas são capazes de pensar é como organizar as coisas neste plano físico, para que todos possam viver o que os progressistas consideram ser uma boa vida, o mesmo para todos e assim por diante. Sua visão do futuro neste plano físico é de um paraíso maravilhoso.

Anyone who is able to see the reality, and to see through it, knows that this world on the physical plane can never reach perfection. Yet people who think materialistically have the illusion that perfection can be achieved on the physical plane. This is the source of many other illusions, and particularly and characteristically the socialist illusion of the present age.

People’s illusions come in all shades of meaning; they are coloured by party politics and so on. People who take a liberal view of the world and of life have constructed their own ideal of the physical world and believe that if they realize this we shall have paradise on earth. All that the socialists are able to think of is how to arrange things on this physical plane so that everybody can live what they consider to be the good life, the same for everybody, and so on. Their vision of the future on this physical plane is of a wonderful paradise.

Verdade, Beleza, Bondade, Hannah Arendt. Rudolf Steiner.

 

"Esta constante mentira não visa fazer as pessoas acreditarem na mentira, mas assegurar que as pessoas não mais acreditem em nada.

Um povo que não mais distingue entre verdades e mentiras não pode distinguir entre o certo e o errado.

E este povo, privado do poder de pensar e julgar, é - sem o conhecimento e a vontade para tal, completamente sujeito  à regra da mentira. Com este povo, você faz o que quiser fazer. "

- Hannah Arendt,

(14 Out 1906 - 4 Dez 1975) era uma historiadora e filósofa alemã.

O objetivo da educação totalitária nunca foi instilar convicções, mas destruir a capacidade de formar alguma educação.

O extenso corpo de trabalho de Arendt inclui muitas discussões diferenciadas sobre verdades, mentiras e a natureza do totalitarismo, e essa citação reflete temas de seus escritos sobre o totalitarismo e a natureza da verdade.

 

"This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore.

A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong.

And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected to the rule

of lies. With such a people, you can do whatever you want."

- Hannah Arendt,

(14 October 1906 – 4 December 1975) was a German historian and philosopher.

The aim of totalitarian education has never been to instill convictions but to destroy the capacity to form any.

Arendt's extensive body of work includes many nuanced discussions on truth, lies, and the nature of totalitarianism, and this quote reflects themes from her writing on totalitarianism and the nature of truth.

Truth, Beauty and Goodness
GA 220 

https://rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA220/English/Singles/19230119p01.html 

Rudolf Steiner stated that the primary function of education is to exercise the students' faculties of thinking, feeling and willing. These basic human qualities manifest in civilization as the “eternal verities” of truth, beauty and goodness, and these in turn in science, art and religion.

19 January 1923, Dornach

Translator Unknown

True, the Beautiful, the Good—through all the ages of man's conscious evolution these words have expressed three great ideals: ideals which have instinctively been recognized as representing the sublime nature and lofty goal of all human endeavour. In epochs earlier than our own there was a deeper knowledge of man's being and his connection with the universe, when Truth, Beauty and Goodness had more concrete reality than they have in our age of abstraction. Anthroposophy, or Spiritual Science, is able once again to indicate the concrete reality of such ideals, although in so doing it does not always meet with the approval of the times. For in our age men love to be vague and nebulous whenever it is a question of getting beyond the facts of everyday life.

Let us try to understand how Truth, Beauty and Goodness are related, as concrete realities, to the being of man.

As the human being stands before us we see, in the first place, his physical body—nowadays the object of purely external observation. How the single organs, the form and functions of the body have been built up in pre-earthly existence—of this people are wholly unaware. In his pre-earthly existence man lives in a world of pure Spirit, where, in communion with higher Beings, he is engaged in building up the spiritual prototype, the spirit-form of his physical body. The physical body here on earth is but an after-copy of the spirit-germ that is elaborated, in a certain sense, by man himself in pre-earthly existence.

In earthly life the human being is conscious of his physical body, but does not know what this implies. We speak of Truth, little realizing that a feeling for truth is connected with our consciousness of the physical body. When man is confronted by a simple fact, he may either form an idea that harmonizes strictly with it and thus is true, or, from inaccuracy, laziness or positive aversion to truth, he may evolve an idea that does not coincide with the fact. When he thinks the truth, he is in harmony with the feeling he has of his physical body, nay also with his sense of the connection between this physical body and pre-earthly existence. If out of laziness or untruthfulness he forms an idea that is not in accordance with the fact, it is as if he cut the thread that binds him to pre-earthly existence. Untruth severs this thread. In pre-earthly existence a delicate spiritual wool is spun, and this is concentrated into an after-copy—the physical body. Many threads connect this physical body with pre-earthly existence, and they are severed by untruthfulness. The purely intellectual consciousness that is a characteristic quality in the early stages of the epoch of the Spiritual Soul (*) does not realize that such a severance takes place. And that is why man is subject to so many illusions as to his connection with cosmic existence.

For the most part to-day, man regards his bodily health from a purely physical point of view. But when, through untruthfulness, he severs the threads that bind him with pre-earthly existence, this works right down into his physical body, and especially into the constitution of the nervous system. The feeling he has of his physical body gives him his “spiritual sense of being” in the universe. And this spiritual sense of being depends upon maintenance of the threads proceeding from the physical body to pre-earthly existence. If they break, man must create a substitute for his healthy sense of being—and he does so, unconsciously. He is then led, unconsciously, to ascribe to himself a sense of being “out of the common.” But even here he has fallen into an inner uncertainty that makes itself felt even in the physical body. For this purely spiritual sense of being that we find existing with greater and greater intensity the farther we go back in history—is it strongly present in man to-day?

How often it is the case that a man would like to be a person of note not by virtue of his own spiritual life, but by virtue of some profession or title. He likes to have some such title as “Secretary” or “Notary,” and then imagines he is of importance when convention thus describes him. The essential thing, however, is that he shall be able to realize his existence inwardly, apart from all externalities.

What is it that can strengthen man in this sense of being? In earthly existence we live in a world that is but a copy of true reality. Indeed, we only understand this physical world aright when we realize it to be this copy of reality. It behooves us, however, to feel the true reality within us; we must be aware of our connection with the spiritual world. And this is only possible if the bond that links us with pre-earthly existence remains intact.

This bond is strengthened by a love of truth and Integrity. Nothing establishes man's true and original sense of existence so firmly as a feeling for truth and truthfulness. To feel himself in duty bound first to “prove all things” he utters, to set due restraint on all his words—this helps to consolidate the sense of existence that is worthy of his being. To be aware of the spirit within the physical body—with this, indeed, the sense of being is connected. There is, in effect, an intimate kinship between the physical body and this ideal of Truth.

We acquire the etheric body (or body of “formative forces”) only a short time before the descent from pre-earthly to earthly existence. We draw the forces of the etheric world together, as it were, to build up our own etheric body. Now in earlier epochs of evolution man had a better understanding of the etheric body than he has to-day. Indeed, instead of feeling the reality of the etheric body, he is nowadays apt to scoff at the very idea.

The sense of the reality of the etheric body is strengthened by the experience of Beauty. When truth and truthfulness enter the realm of real experience, we are, in a sense, living rightly in the physical body. A highly developed sense of beauty gives us a right relation to the etheric body of formative forces. Whereas Truth is connected with the physical body, Beauty is connected with the etheric body.

This will become clear if we think of the significance of beauty as manifested in art. If we have before us a human being of flesh and blood, we know that he is one among many. Yet the one has no meaning without the many who live around him. Slender indeed are the roots that bind man to physical existence, without the others around him.

If we try either through sculpture, painting, or drama—indeed, through any art—to portray a human being, we endeavour to create a figure that is sufficient and complete in itself—one that contains a whole world, just as man contains the whole universe within himself in his etheric body. For he draws together the etheric forces from the whole universe to mould his etheric body within earthly existence.

An intense feeling for beauty—as it was then conceived—existed in earlier ages. Nothing of the same kind is present in modern civilization, Man cannot be truly man if he has no sense of beauty. It is so, indeed; for to possess a sense of beauty is to acknowledge the reality of the etheric body. To have no sense of beauty is to disregard, to disown, the etheric body.

Of this modern man is all unconscious. When the Greek approached his temple, or beheld within the temple the statue of the god, he was conscious of an inner, glowing warmth, of a kind of inner sunlight. It was as though forces streamed into his being and into his different organs. Gazing at the statue of the god, his whole heart cried out: “Never do I feel the peripheral structure of my hands and fingers so vividly as when this statue stands there before me! Never have I such an inner sense of the arch of my brow as in the temple!” Inwardly warmed and irradiated—god-inspired—thus did the Greek feel in the presence of beauty. And this was nothing else but an experience in the etheric body.

In the presence of ugliness the Greek's feeling was quite different from that of modern man. The latter at most expresses his very abstract feelings in regard to ugliness by his features-he makes a grimace! Ugliness cast a chill through the whole body of the Greek, affecting even the very pores of his skin. In ancient times men were vividly aware of the reality of the etheric body, and in the course of evolution a part of human nature has, indeed, been lost. All these things of which I have been speaking—and which were actual experiences in earlier times—remain unconscious in man to-day, for with his rationalistic intellect and love of abstraction he tends to view everything from the head—the organ belonging to these qualities.

Enthusiasm for truth and truthfulness can kindle in man—in the unconscious depths of his soul at any rate—a feeling for pre-earthly existence. An epoch of civilization in which this feeling is absent can possess no real sense of truth and truthfulness. But when this sense is highly developed, it binds man strongly to the pre-earthly past, and his more immediate experience of the earthly present must needs cause a certain sadness to arise within him. It is a sadness that can only find consolation if the sense of beauty is awakened in the soul. Beauty gives us joy once more, even in the presence of a sadness that must always accompany great enthusiasm for truth. In a delicate, subtle way this enthusiasm tells us: Truth, alas, is only really present in pre-earthly existence. Here in this earthly world we have but her echo. Having left the pre-earthly life, we no longer stand within the essential substance of truth. Only enthusiasm for truth can help us to maintain intact our relationship with pre-earthly existence.

A genuine feeling for beauty forges a link that binds us here, in earthly life itself, once again with pre-earthly existence. We ought never to undervalue the significance of beauty in education and in outer culture. A civilization that is filled with ugly machines, with chimneys and smoke, and dispenses with beauty, is a world that makes no efforts to forge a link between man and pre-earthly existence; indeed, it tears him asunder. Not by way of analogy, but in very truth we may say: A purely industrial city is a fitting abode for the demonic beings who would like to make man forget his pre-earthly existence in the realm of spirit.

Yet delight in beauty must be paid for at the cost of realizing that the beautiful, in its essence, is not rooted in earthly reality. The more perfectly we represent the human form, say, in sculpture or painting, the more must we admit that this does not correspond to an outer reality in earthly existence. It is but a consolation afforded by beautiful semblance, and hence lasts only until the moment we pass through the gate of death.

The world of spirit in which we live during our pre-earthly existence is always present. We have but to stretch out our arms, as it were, to this pre-earthly world of spirit. Although it is always there, a link can only be forged in the depths of unconscious life when man glows with enthusiasm for truth and truthfulness. And when his heart thrills with love for the beautiful, this too forms a bond with pre-earthly existence.

If man is to be true in a higher, this means spiritual, sense, he must not forget that he has lived in the spirit in pre-earthly existence. To glow in response to beauty means that in his soul man must create in a picture, at least, a new link with pre-earthly spirituality.

How can man develop an actual power that will lead him directly into the world he left because he has descended to the earth from pre-earthly existence? The answer is, when he is filled with Goodness—the goodness that flows to other men and is not confined to self-interest, conscious only of what is living within his own being. Such goodness can lead the soul into the qualities, nature and experiences of others. It embraces innumerable forces of soul; and these forces are of such a nature that they actually instill into the human being elements with which he was wholly permeated only in pre-earthly existence. Through his sense of Beauty he links himself, by means of a picture, to the spirit he has left because of his descent to earthly existence. If he is truly good, he links this earthly life itself to pre-earthly existence. A good man is one who can bear his own soul over into the soul of another. Upon this all true morality depends, and without morality no true social order among earthly humanity can be maintained.

When this true morality develops into momentous impulses of will which then pass to reality in moral acts, it begins to be a quickening, all-pervading impulse in the soul, inasmuch as a man can then be moved to real sympathy at the sight of care on the face of another—his own astral body feels pain at the sight of suffering in others. For just as the sense of Truth manifests in man's right relation to the physical body; just as a warm enthusiasm for Beauty expresses itself in the etheric body—so does Goodness live in the astral body. And the astral body cannot be healthy, or maintain its true position in the world, if man is not able to pour through it the forces proceeding from Goodness.

Truth, then, is related to the physical body, Beauty to the etheric body, Goodness to the astral body. Here we have the concrete reality of the three abstractions of Truth, Beauty, Goodness. In short, we can relate to the actual being of man all that is expressed instinctively in these three ideals.

These ideals show us how far man is able to fulfill his whole human nature, when, to begin with, as he lives in his physical body, he is filled with a real sense of truth instead of conventional opinions. Again, full “humanity” is only afforded a worthy existence when a man can quicken his etheric body into life through his feeling for beauty. Indeed, he who is incapable of being moved at the sight of beauty to somewhat the same degree as the Greek, does not possess a true sense of beauty. One can merely gaze at beauty or one can experience it. To-day it is the case that most people only gaze, and this does not necessarily energize anything in the etheric body. To gaze at beauty is not to experience it. The moment we experience beauty, however, the etheric body is quickened.

A man may do good because of some convention, or because punishment is in store for serious wrong-doing—or, again, because other people will respect him less if he does wrong. He can, however, also do good from sheer love of goodness. I spoke of this years ago in my book, The Philosophy of Spiritual Activity. Such an experience of goodness will always lead to a recognition of the reality of the astral body. Indeed, only this recognition will teach man anything about the essence of goodness. There can only be abstract knowledge of and inconsequent chatter about goodness, if loving enthusiasm for goodness in its essence does not lead to actual experience of the astral body.

Now to realize the good is not, as in the experience of beauty, merely to create a link with pre-earthly existence that ceases when man passes through the gate of death. To experience goodness is, indeed, to unite oneself with the world of which I said, it is ever present. We have but to stretch out towards it. Yet man is separated from this world in material existence. Experience of goodness is a link, leading directly to the world he enters after death.

Forces that endure beyond the gate of death are present in men's actions here on earth, if he lives a life of goodness. The sense of truth is a heritage from pre-earthly existence. The sense of beauty will create an image, at least, of pre-earthly connection with spirit. And the impulse exists within us not to cut ourselves off from spirit, but rather to maintain the bond intact by the goodness we develop as inner power.

To be true is to be rightly united with our spiritual past. To sense beauty means that in the physical world we do not disown our connection with spirit. To be good is to build a living seed for a spiritual world in the future.

Past, present, future—these three concepts, as they play their part in human life, assume far-reaching significance when we understand the concrete reality of the other three concepts—Truth, Beauty, Goodness.

The man who is untruthful denies his spiritual past; the liar severs the threads between himself and his spiritual past. He who disregards beauty is building himself an abode on earth where the sun of spirit never shines, where he wanders in spiritless shadow. The man who belies the good renounces his spiritual future; and yet he would like this future to be bestowed on him, may be by means of some outer remedy.

It was, indeed, out of a profound instinct that Truth, Beauty and Goodness were held to be the greatest ideals of human striving. Yet they have faded away into shadowy words, and it is only our present age that can bestow concrete reality upon them.

Verdade, Beleza e Bondade
GA 220

Rudolf Steiner afirmou que a função principal da educação é exercitar as faculdades de pensar, sentir e querer dos alunos. Estas qualidades humanas básicas manifestam-se na civilização como as “verdades eternas” da verdade, da beleza e da bondade, e estas, por sua vez, na ciência, na arte e na religião.

Verdadeiro, o Belo, o Bom – ao longo de todas as eras da evolução consciente do homem, estas palavras expressaram três grandes ideais: ideais que foram instintivamente reconhecidos como representando a natureza sublime e o objetivo elevado de todo o esforço humano. Em épocas anteriores à nossa, havia um conhecimento mais profundo do ser do homem e da sua ligação com o universo, quando a Verdade, a Beleza e a Bondade tinham uma realidade mais concreta do que na nossa era de abstracção. A Antroposofia, ou Ciência Espiritual, é capaz mais uma vez de indicar a realidade concreta de tais ideais, embora ao fazê-lo nem sempre encontre a aprovação dos tempos. Pois em nossa época os homens adoram ser vagos e nebulosos sempre que se trata de ir além dos fatos da vida cotidiana.

Procuremos compreender como a Verdade, a Beleza e o Bem se relacionam, como realidades concretas, com o ser do homem.

Quando o ser humano está diante de nós, vemos, em primeiro lugar, o seu corpo físico – hoje objeto de observação puramente externa. Como os órgãos individuais, a forma e as funções do corpo foram construídos na existência pré-terrena – isso as pessoas desconhecem totalmente. Na sua existência pré-terrena, o homem vive num mundo de Espírito puro, onde, em comunhão com Seres superiores, está empenhado na construção do protótipo espiritual, a forma espiritual do seu corpo físico. O corpo físico aqui na terra é apenas uma cópia posterior do germe espiritual que é elaborado, em certo sentido, pelo próprio homem na existência pré-terrena.

Na vida terrena o ser humano tem consciência do seu corpo físico, mas não sabe o que isso implica. Falamos da Verdade, sem perceber que um sentimento pela verdade está ligado à nossa consciência do corpo físico. Quando o homem é confrontado com um facto simples, ele pode formar uma ideia que se harmonize estritamente com ele e, portanto, ser verdadeira, ou, por imprecisão, preguiça ou aversão positiva à verdade, ele pode desenvolver uma ideia que não coincide com o facto. Quando ele pensa a verdade, ele está em harmonia com o sentimento que tem do seu corpo físico, ou melhor, também com o seu sentido da conexão entre este corpo físico e a existência pré-terrena. Se por preguiça ou falsidade ele forma uma ideia que não está de acordo com o fato, é como se cortasse o fio que o liga à existência pré-terrena. A inverdade corta esse fio. Na existência pré-terrena, uma delicada lã espiritual é tecida e concentrada em uma cópia posterior – o corpo físico. Muitos fios conectam este corpo físico com a existência pré-terrena e são cortados pela falsidade. A consciência puramente intelectual, que é uma qualidade característica nos primeiros estágios da época da Alma Espiritual (* ), não percebe que tal separação ocorre. E é por isso que o homem está sujeito a tantas ilusões quanto à sua ligação com a existência cósmica.

Na maior parte dos dias de hoje, o homem considera a sua saúde corporal de um ponto de vista puramente físico. Mas quando, através da falsidade, ele corta os fios que o ligam à existência pré-terrena, isso afeta diretamente o seu corpo físico e, especialmente, a constituição do sistema nervoso. A sensação que ele tem do seu corpo físico lhe dá a “sensação espiritual de estar” no universo. E esse sentido espiritual de ser depende da manutenção dos fios que vão do corpo físico à existência pré-terrena. Se quebrarem, o homem terá de criar um substituto para o seu saudável sentido de ser – e fá-lo, inconscientemente. Ele é então levado, inconscientemente, a atribuir a si mesmo uma sensação de estar “fora do comum”. Mas mesmo aqui ele caiu numa incerteza interior que se faz sentir até no corpo físico. Pois este sentido de ser puramente espiritual, que descobrimos existir com maior e maior intensidade à medida que recuamos na história, está fortemente presente no homem de hoje?

Quantas vezes acontece que um homem gostaria de ser uma pessoa notável, não em virtude de sua própria vida espiritual, mas em virtude de alguma profissão ou título. Ele gosta de ter títulos como “Secretário” ou “Notário”, e então imagina que é importante quando a convenção o descreve assim. O essencial, porém, é que ele seja capaz de realizar a sua existência interiormente, independente de todas as externalidades.

O que é que pode fortalecer o homem neste sentido de ser? Na existência terrena vivemos num mundo que é apenas uma cópia da verdadeira realidade. Na verdade, só compreendemos corretamente este mundo físico quando percebemos que ele é esta cópia da realidade. Cabe a nós, entretanto, sentir a verdadeira realidade dentro de nós; devemos estar conscientes de nossa conexão com o mundo espiritual. E isto só é possível se o vínculo que nos liga à existência pré-terrena permanecer intacto.

Este vínculo é fortalecido pelo amor à verdade e à integridade. Nada estabelece tão firmemente o verdadeiro e original sentido de existência do homem como um sentimento de verdade e veracidade. Sentir-se no dever de primeiro “provar todas as coisas” que ele pronuncia, de impor a devida restrição a todas as suas palavras - isso ajuda a consolidar o sentido de existência que é digno do seu ser. Estar consciente do espírito dentro do corpo físico – com isso, de fato, a sensação de ser está conectada. Existe, com efeito, um parentesco íntimo entre o corpo físico e este ideal de Verdade.

Adquirimos o corpo etérico (ou corpo de “forças formativas”) apenas pouco tempo antes da descida da existência pré-terrena para a existência terrena. Reunimos as forças do mundo etérico, por assim dizer, para construir nosso próprio corpo etérico. Ora, em épocas anteriores da evolução, o homem tinha uma compreensão melhor do corpo etérico do que tem hoje. Na verdade, em vez de sentir a realidade do corpo etérico, ele hoje em dia tende a zombar da própria ideia.

A sensação da realidade do corpo etérico é fortalecida pela experiência da Beleza. Quando a verdade e a veracidade entram no domínio da experiência real, estamos, em certo sentido, vivendo corretamente no corpo físico. Um senso de beleza altamente desenvolvido nos dá uma relação correta com o corpo etérico das forças formativas. Enquanto a Verdade está ligada ao corpo físico, a Beleza está ligada ao corpo etérico.

Isto ficará claro se pensarmos no significado da beleza manifestada na arte. Se temos diante de nós um ser humano de carne e osso, sabemos que ele é um entre muitos. No entanto, aquele não tem sentido sem os muitos que vivem ao seu redor. De fato, são delgadas as raízes que ligam o homem à existência física, sem os outros ao seu redor.

Se tentarmos, seja através da escultura, da pintura ou do drama - na verdade, através de qualquer arte - retratar um ser humano, nos esforçaremos para criar uma figura que seja suficiente e completa em si mesma - uma figura que contenha um mundo inteiro, assim como o homem contém o universo inteiro dentro de si mesmo em seu corpo etérico. Pois ele reúne as forças etéricas de todo o universo para moldar seu corpo etérico na existência terrena.

Um sentimento intenso pela beleza – tal como era então concebida – existiu em épocas anteriores. Nada do mesmo tipo está presente na civilização moderna. O homem não pode ser verdadeiramente homem se não tiver senso de beleza. É assim, de fato; pois possuir um senso de beleza é reconhecer a realidade do corpo etérico. Não ter senso de beleza é desconsiderar, renegar o corpo etérico.

Disto o homem moderno está totalmente inconsciente. Quando o grego se aproximava de seu templo, ou contemplava dentro do templo a estátua do deus, ele tinha consciência de um calor interior e brilhante, de uma espécie de luz solar interior. Era como se forças fluíssem para seu ser e para seus diferentes órgãos. Olhando para a estátua do deus, todo o seu coração gritou: “Nunca senti a estrutura periférica das minhas mãos e dedos tão vividamente como quando esta estátua está diante de mim! Nunca tive uma sensação tão interior do arco da minha testa como no templo!” Interiormente aquecido e irradiado – inspirado por Deus – assim o grego se sentia na presença da beleza. E isso nada mais foi do que uma experiência no corpo etérico.

Na presença da feiúra, o sentimento do grego era bem diferente daquele do homem moderno. Este último, no máximo, expressa seus sentimentos muito abstratos em relação à feiúra por meio de suas feições – ele faz uma careta! A feiúra arrepiou todo o corpo do grego, atingindo até os poros da pele. Nos tempos antigos, os homens tinham uma consciência vívida da realidade do corpo etérico e, no curso da evolução, uma parte da natureza humana foi, de fato, perdida. Todas estas coisas de que tenho falado - e que foram experiências reais em épocas anteriores - permanecem inconscientes no homem hoje, pois com o seu intelecto racionalista e amor à abstracção ele tende a ver tudo a partir da cabeça - o órgão pertencente a estas coisas. qualidades.

O entusiasmo pela verdade e pela veracidade pode despertar no homem - pelo menos nas profundezas inconscientes de sua alma - um sentimento de existência pré-terrena. Uma época da civilização em que este sentimento esteja ausente não pode possuir nenhum sentido real de verdade e veracidade. Mas quando esse sentido é altamente desenvolvido, ele liga fortemente o homem ao passado pré-terrestre, e sua experiência mais imediata do presente terreno deve necessariamente causar o surgimento de uma certa tristeza dentro dele. É uma tristeza que só encontra consolo se o sentido da beleza for despertado na alma. A beleza nos dá alegria mais uma vez, mesmo na presença de uma tristeza que deve sempre acompanhar um grande entusiasmo pela verdade. De uma forma delicada e subtil, este entusiasmo diz-nos: A verdade, infelizmente, só está realmente presente na existência pré-terrena. Aqui neste mundo terreno temos apenas o eco dela. Tendo deixado a vida pré-terrena, não estamos mais dentro da substância essencial da verdade. Só o entusiasmo pela verdade pode ajudar-nos a manter intacta a nossa relação com a existência pré-terrena.

Um sentimento genuíno pela beleza cria um elo que nos une aqui, na própria vida terrena, mais uma vez com a existência pré-terrena. Nunca devemos subestimar o significado da beleza na educação e na cultura exterior. Uma civilização repleta de máquinas feias, de chaminés e de fumo, e que dispensa a beleza, é um mundo que não faz nenhum esforço para estabelecer uma ligação entre o homem e a existência pré-terrena; na verdade, isso o despedaça. Não por analogia, mas com toda a verdade podemos dizer: Uma cidade puramente industrial é uma morada adequada para os seres demoníacos que gostariam de fazer o homem esquecer a sua existência pré-terrena no reino do espírito.

No entanto, o deleite pela beleza deve ser pago à custa da compreensão de que o belo, na sua essência, não está enraizado na realidade terrena. Quanto mais perfeitamente representamos a forma humana, digamos, na escultura ou na pintura, mais devemos admitir que isto não corresponde a uma realidade exterior na existência terrena. É apenas um consolo proporcionado pela bela aparência e, portanto, dura apenas até o momento em que atravessamos o portão da morte.

O mundo espiritual em que vivemos durante a nossa existência pré-terrena está sempre presente. Basta-nos, por assim dizer, estender os braços para este mundo espiritual pré-terreno. Embora esteja sempre presente, um elo só pode ser forjado nas profundezas da vida inconsciente quando o homem brilha com entusiasmo pela verdade e pela veracidade. E quando seu coração vibra de amor pelo belo, isso também forma um vínculo com a existência pré-terrena.

Se o homem quiser ser verdadeiro em um sentido superior, isto é, espiritual, ele não deve esquecer que viveu no espírito na existência pré-terrena. Brilhar em resposta à beleza significa que em sua alma o homem deve criar numa imagem, pelo menos, um novo vínculo com a espiritualidade pré-terrena.

Como pode o homem desenvolver um poder real que o levará diretamente ao mundo que ele deixou porque desceu à Terra desde a existência pré-terrena? A resposta é, quando ele está cheio de Bondade – a bondade que flui para outros homens e não se limita ao interesse próprio, consciente apenas do que vive dentro do seu próprio ser. Essa bondade pode conduzir a alma às qualidades, à natureza e às experiências dos outros. Abrange inúmeras forças da alma; e essas forças são de tal natureza que na verdade instilam no ser humano elementos com os quais ele estava totalmente permeado apenas na existência pré-terrena. Através do seu sentido de Beleza ele se liga, por meio de uma imagem, ao espírito que deixou por causa da sua descida à existência terrena. Se ele for verdadeiramente bom, ele liga esta própria vida terrena à existência pré-terrena. Um homem bom é aquele que consegue transferir sua própria alma para a alma de outro. Disso depende toda a verdadeira moralidade, e sem moralidade nenhuma verdadeira ordem social entre a humanidade terrena pode ser mantida.

Quando esta verdadeira moralidade se desenvolve em momentosos impulsos de vontade que então passam para a realidade em atos morais, ela começa a ser um impulso vivificante e que tudo permeia na alma, na medida em que um homem pode então ser levado a uma verdadeira simpatia ao ver o cuidado. na face de outro – seu próprio corpo astral sente dor ao ver o sofrimento dos outros. Pois assim como o sentido da Verdade se manifesta na relação correta do homem com o corpo físico; assim como um caloroso entusiasmo pela Beleza se expressa no corpo etérico, a Bondade também vive no corpo astral. E o corpo astral não pode ser são, nem manter a sua verdadeira posição no mundo, se o homem não for capaz de derramar através dele as forças provenientes do Bem.

A Verdade, então, está relacionada ao corpo físico, a Beleza ao corpo etérico, a Bondade ao corpo astral. Aqui temos a realidade concreta das três abstrações de Verdade, Beleza e Bondade. Em suma, podemos relacionar com o ser real do homem tudo o que é expresso instintivamente nestes três ideais.

Estes ideais mostram-nos até que ponto o homem é capaz de cumprir toda a sua natureza humana, quando, para começar, enquanto vive no seu corpo físico, ele está repleto de um verdadeiro sentido de verdade em vez de opiniões convencionais. Mais uma vez, a “humanidade” plena só terá uma existência digna quando um homem puder dar vida ao seu corpo etérico através do seu sentimento pela beleza. Na verdade, aquele que é incapaz de se emocionar ao ver a beleza no mesmo grau que o grego, não possui um verdadeiro senso de beleza. Pode-se apenas contemplar a beleza ou experimentá-la. Hoje acontece que a maioria das pessoas apenas olha, e isso não necessariamente energiza nada no corpo etérico. Contemplar a beleza não é experimentá-la. No momento em que experimentamos a beleza, porém, o corpo etérico é acelerado.

Um homem pode fazer o bem por causa de alguma convenção, ou porque o castigo está reservado para uma transgressão grave – ou, novamente, porque outras pessoas o respeitarão menos se ele cometer um erro. Ele pode, no entanto, também fazer o bem por puro amor ao bem. Falei sobre isso anos atrás em meu livro A Filosofia da Atividade Espiritual . Tal experiência do bem sempre levará ao reconhecimento da realidade do corpo astral. Na verdade, só este reconhecimento ensinará ao homem alguma coisa sobre a essência da bondade. Só pode haver conhecimento abstrato e conversa inconsequente sobre o bem, se o entusiasmo amoroso pelo bem em sua essência não levar à experiência real do corpo astral.

Ora, realizar o bem não é, como na experiência da beleza, meramente criar um vínculo com a existência pré-terrena que cessa quando o homem passa pelo portão da morte. Experimentar o bem é, de fato, unir-se ao mundo do qual eu disse, ele está sempre presente. Temos apenas que nos esforçar para isso. No entanto, o homem está separado deste mundo na existência material. A experiência da bondade é um elo que leva diretamente ao mundo em que ele entra após a morte.

As forças que perduram além da porta da morte estão presentes nas ações dos homens aqui na terra, se eles viverem uma vida de bondade. O sentido da verdade é uma herança da existência pré-terrena. O senso de beleza criará uma imagem, pelo menos, de conexão pré-terrena com o espírito. E existe dentro de nós o impulso de não nos desligarmos do espírito, mas sim de manter intacto o vínculo pela bondade que desenvolvemos como poder interior.

Ser verdadeiro é estar corretamente unido ao nosso passado espiritual. Sentir a beleza significa que no mundo físico não renegamos a nossa ligação com o espírito. Ser bom é construir uma semente viva para um mundo espiritual no futuro.

Passado, presente, futuro - estes três conceitos, à medida que desempenham o seu papel na vida humana, assumem um significado de longo alcance quando compreendemos a realidade concreta dos outros três conceitos - Verdade, Beleza, Bondade.

O homem que não é verdadeiro nega o seu passado espiritual; o mentiroso corta os fios entre ele e seu passado espiritual. Aquele que desconsidera a beleza está construindo para si uma morada na terra onde o sol do espírito nunca brilha, onde ele vagueia em sombras sem espírito. O homem que desmente o bem renuncia ao seu futuro espiritual; e ainda assim ele gostaria que esse futuro lhe fosse concedido, talvez por meio de algum remédio externo.

Foi, de facto, por um profundo instinto que a Verdade, a Beleza e a Bondade foram consideradas os maiores ideais do esforço humano. No entanto, eles desapareceram em palavras sombrias, e é apenas a nossa época atual que pode conferir-lhes uma realidade concreta.

THE COMMITTEE OF 300: The destruction and control of America and the World. The depopulation of millions of innocent people. The public execution of President John F. Kennedy. The control of U.S. Elections and elections around the world. The release of AIDS and deadly viruses.

This is the work of the insidious Committee of 300. How long will America and humanity allow them to continue this rule of corruption, death and destruction? They will not give up their power. It must be forcibly removed from them. They are moving forward with the following agenda unless we stop them. The Intent and Purpose of the Committee of 300 is to Bring to Pass the Following Conditions: A One World Government and one-unit monetary system under permanent non-elected hereditary Oligarch's who self select from among their numbers in the form of a feudal system as it was in the Middle Ages. In this One World entity, population will be limited by restrictions on the number of children per family, diseases, wars, famines, until 1 billion people who are useful to the ruling class, in areas which will be strictly and clearly defined, remain as the total world population. There will be no middle class, only rulers and servants. All laws will be uniform under a legal system of world courts practicing the same unified code of laws, backed up by a One World Government police force and a One World unified military to enforce laws in all former countries where no national boundaries shall exist. The system will be on the basis of a welfare state; those who are obedient and subservient to the One World Government will be rewarded with the means to live; those who are rebellious will simply be starved to death or be declared outlaws, thus a target for anyone who wishes to kill them. Privately owned firearms or weapons of any kind will be prohibited. Only one religion will be allowed and that will be in the form of a One World Government Church, which has been in existence since 1920 as we shall see. Satanism, Luciferianism and Witchcraft shall he recognized as legitimate One World Government curricula with no private or church schools. All Christian churches have already been subverted and Christianity will be a thing of the past in the One World Government. To induce a state where there is no individual freedom or any concept of liberty surviving, there shall be no such thing as republicanism, sovereignty or rights residing with the people. National pride and racial identity shall be stamped out and in the transition phase it shall be subject to the severest penalties to even mention one's racial origin. Each person shall be fully indoctrinated that he or she is a creature of the One World Government with an identification number clearly marked on their person so as to be readily accessible, which identifying number shall be in the master file of the NATO computer in Brussels, Belgium, subject to instant retrieval by any agency of the One World Government at any time. The master Files of the CIA, FBI, state and local police agencies, IRS, FEMA, Social Security shall be vastly expanded and form the basis of personal records of all individuals in the United States. Marriage shall be outlawed and there shall be no family life as we know it. Children will be removed from their parents at an early-age and brought up by wards as state property. Such an experiment was carried out in East Germany under Erich Honnecker when children were take away from parents considered by the state to be disloyal citizens. Women will be degraded through the continued process of "women's liberation" movements. Free sex shall be mandatory. Failure to comply at least once by the age of 20 shall be punishable by severe reprisals against her person. Self-abortion shall be taught and practiced after two children are born to a woman; such records shall be contained in the personal file of each woman in the One World Government's regional computers. If a woman falls pregnant after she has previously given birth to two children, she shall be forcibly removed to an abortion clinic for such an abortion and sterilization to be carried out. Pornography shall be promoted and be compulsory showing in every theater of cinema, including homosexual and lesbian pornography. The use of "recreational" drugs shall be compulsory, with each person allotted drug quotas which can be purchased at One World Government stores throughout the world. Mind control drugs will be expanded and usage become compulsory. Such mind control drugs shall be given in food and/or water supplies without the knowledge and/or consent of the people. Drug bars shall be set up, run by One World Government employees, where the slave-class shall be able to spend their free time. In this manner the non-elite masses will be reduced to the level and behavior of controlled animals with no will of their own and easily regimented and controlled. The economic system shall be based upon the ruling oligarchical class allowing just enough foods and services to be produced to keep the mass slave labor camps going. All wealth shall be aggregated in the hands of the elite members of the Committee of 300. Each individual shall be indoctrinated to understand that he or she is totally dependent upon the state for survival. The world shall be ruled by Committee of 300 Executive Decrees which become instant law. Courts of punishment and not courts of justice shall exist. Industry is to be totally destroyed along with nuclear powered energy systems. Only the Committee of 300 members and their elitists shall have the right to any of the earth's resources. Agriculture shall be solely in the hands of the Committee of 300 with food production strictly controlled. As these measures begin to take effect, large populations in the cities shall be forcibly removed to remote areas and those who refuse to go shall be exterminated in the manner of the One World Government experiment carried out by Pol Pot in Cambodia. Euthanasia for the terminally ill and the aged shall be compulsory. No cities shall be larger than a predetermined number as described in the work of Kalgeri. Essential workers will be moved to other cities if the one they are in becomes overpopulated. Other non-essential workers will be chosen at random and sent to underpopulated cities to fill "quotas." At least 4 billion "useless eaters" shall be eliminated by the year 2050 by means of limited wars, organized epidemics of fatal rapid-acting diseases and starvation. Energy, food and water shall be kept at subsistence levels for the non-elite, starting with the White populations of Western Europe and North America and then spreading to other races. The population of Canada, Western Europe and the United States will be decimated more rapidly than on other continents, until the world's population reaches a manageable level of 1 billion, of which 500 million will consist of Chinese and Japanese races, selected because they are people who have been regimented for centuries and who are accustomed to obeying authority without question. From time to time there shall be artificially contrived food and water shortages and medical care to remind the masses that their very existence depends on the goodwill of the Committee of 300. After the destruction of housing, auto, steel and heavy goods industries, there shall he limited housing, and industries of any kind allowed to remain shall be under the direction of NATO's Club of Rome as shall all scientific and space exploration development, limited to the elite under the control of the Committee of 300. Space weapons of all former nations shall be destroyed along with nuclear weapons. All essential and non-essential pharmaceutical products, doctors, dentists and health care workers will be registered in the central computer data bank and no medicine or medical care will he prescribed without express permission of regional controllers responsible for each city, town and village. The United States will be flooded by peoples of alien cultures who will eventually overwhelm America, people with no concept of what the United States Constitution stands for and who will, in consequence, do nothing to defend it, and in whose minds the concept of liberty and justice is so weak as to matter little. Food and shelter shall be the main concern. No central bank save the Bank of International Settlement and the World Bank shall be allowed to operate. Private banks will be outlawed. Remuneration for work performed shall be under a uniform predetermined scale throughout the One World Government. There shall be no wage disputes allowed, nor any diversion from the standard uniform scales of pay laid down by the One World Government. Those who break the law will be instantly executed. There shall be no cash or coinage in the hands of the non- elite. All transactions shall be carried out by means of digital currency which shall bear the identification number of the holder. Any person who in any way infringes the rules and regulations of the Committee of 300 shall have the use of his or her digital currency suspended for varying times according to the nature and severity of the infringement. Such persons will find, when they go to make purchases, that their digital currency is blacklisted and they will not be able to obtain services of any kind. Attempts to trade "old" coins, that is to say silver coins of previous and now defunct nations, shall be treated as a capital crime subject to the death penalty. All such coinage shall be required to be surrendered within a given time along with guns, rifles, explosives and automobiles. Only the elite and One World Government high-ranking functionaries will be allowed private transport, weapons, coinage and automobiles. If the offense is a serious one, the digital currency will be shut off at the checking point where it is presented. Thereafter that person shall not be able to obtain food, water, shelter and employment medical services, and shall be officially listed as an outlaw. Large bands of outlaws will thus be created and they will live in regions that best afford subsistence, subject to being hunted down and shot on sight. Persons assisting outlaws in any way whatsoever, shall likewise be shot. Outlaws who fail to surrender to the police or military after a declared period of time, shall have a former family member selected at random to serve prison terms in their stead. Rival factions and groups such as Arabs and Jews and African tribes shall have differences magnified and allowed to wage wars of extermination against each other under the eyes of NATO and U.N. observers. The same tactics will be used in Central and South America. These wars of attrition shall take place before the take-over of the One World Government and shall be engineered on every continent where large groups of people with ethnic and religious differences live, such as the Sikhs, Moslem Pakistanis and the Hindu Indians. Ethnic and religious differences shall be magnified and exacerbated and violent conflict as a means of "settling" their differences shall be encouraged and fostered. All information services and print media shall be under the control of the One World Government. Regular brainwashing control measures shall be passed off as "entertainment" in the manner in which it was practiced and became a fine art in the United States. Youths removed from "disloyal parents," shall receive special education designed to brutalize them. Youth of both sexes shall receive training to qualify as prison guards for the One World labor camp system. The above was written in 1991 by Dr. John Coleman. Dr. John Coleman was an Intelligence Officer for over 45 years and his book of truth is based on 20 years of relentless research. We can already see many of these things happening today. The Committee of 300 has already penetrated and subverted all governments through the World Economic Forum and United Nations to destroy the sovereign integrity of the nations represented by them. The Committee of 300 has already taken control of the education system in America with the intent and purpose of utterly and completely destroying it. They have now targeted our innocent children through homosexuality, transgenderism and pedophilia. They operate and control the world's Pedophile systems. The Committee of 300 must come to its swift end. They are in control of America right now and are the ones who orchestrated the fraudulent 2020 Election and put corrupt Biden in the White House. They will not allow Trump or Kennedy to be President of the United States. We must do what must be done. We must end the Committee of 300 once and for all for the sake of our innocent children and for the sake of all humanity. These are their names. These are the people that want to eliminate you and control you. These are the people who have been ruling our world for over 150 years through death and chaos inflicted upon billions of innocent people. These are the same people creating world wars for profits and deaths. These are the people behind engineered viruses and diseases that were released upon the world killing millions. These are the people that must be removed from our world. PAST AND PRESENT MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE OF 300 AS OF 1991: BILL GATES IS A NEW MEMBER Abergavemy, Marquis of. Acheson, Dean.

It must be done or we will lose America and the rest of the world to a future of global tyranny. They have already killed millions of innocent people and plan on killing billions more. They are coming after our children, they are sexualizing them and want to legalize Pedophilia. They will not stop unless we physically stop them by force. This is the reality of humanities fate. Criminals and mass murderers do not surrender their power. It must be taken from them for the sake of all humanity. They think they are gods themselves, the Olympians who have the right to decide who lives and who dies. They are gravely mistaken and their rule must come to a swift end.

Direito de sentar em carteiras. John Barnwell

 História real publicada no Facebook por John Barnwell/Kim Brixius

Tradução Sonia von Homrich

Em setembro de 2005, no primeiro dia de escola, Martha Cothren, professora de história da Robinson High School, em Little Rock, fez algo para não ser esquecido. No primeiro dia de aula, com a permissão do superintendente da escola, do diretor e do supervisor do edifício, ela removeu todas as carteiras em sua sala de aula. Quando as crianças do primeiro período entraram na sala, descobriram que não havia carteiras.

'Sra. Cothren, onde estão nossas mesas?

Ela respondeu: 'Vocês não pode ter uma mesa até vocês me dizerem como ganharam o direito de sentar em uma carteira'.

Eles responderam: 'Bem, talvez sejam nossas notas'. "Não", disse ela.

"Talvez seja o nosso comportamento." Ela disse a eles: 'Não, nem é seu comportamento'.

E assim, eles vieram e foram, primeiro período, segundo período, terceiro período. Ainda não havia carteiras na sala de aula. As crianças ligaram para os pais para lhes contar o que estava acontecendo e, no início da tarde, as equipes de notícias de televisão começaram a se reunir na escola para relatar sobre esse professor louco que havia tirado todas as carteiras de sua sala.

O período final do dia chegou e, quando os estudantes confusos encontraram assentos no chão da sala de aula sem carteira. Martha Cothren disse: 'Ao longo do dia, ninguém conseguiu me dizer exatamente o que ele fez para ganhar o direito de sentar-se nas carteiras que são normalmente encontradas nesta sala de aula. Agora vou lhes contar. '

Nesse ponto, Martha Cothren foi até a porta de sua sala de aula e a abriu. Vinte e sete (27) veteranos dos EUA, todos de uniforme, entraram na sala de aula, cada um carregando uma carteira da escola. Os veteranos começaram a colocar as carteiras da escola em fileiras e depois se aproximavam e ficaram ao lado da parede. Quando o último soldado havia colocado a carteira final no lugar é que essas crianças começaram a entender, talvez pela primeira vez em suas vidas, como o direito de sentar nessas carteiras havia sido conquistado.

Martha disse: 'Você não ganhou o direito de sentar nessas carteiras. Esses heróis fizeram isso por você. Eles colocaram as carteiras aqui para você. Eles foram até o meio do mundo, desistindo de sua educação e interrompendo suas carreiras e famílias para que você possa ter a liberdade que tem. Agora, cabe a você sentar-se nelas. É sua responsabilidade aprender, ser um bom aluno, ser um bom cidadão. Eles pagaram o preço para que você pudesse ter a liberdade de obter uma educação. Nunca se esqueça.”

A propósito, esta é uma história verdadeira. E esse professor foi laureado como o professor do ano pelos Veteranos de Guerras no Exterior para o Estado do Arkansas em 2006. Ela é filha de um  prisioneiro de guerra (pow) da Segunda Guerra Mundial.

Você acha que vale a pena passar esse email  para que outros também não esqueçam, que as liberdades que temos neste grande país foram conquistadas por nossos veteranos dos EUA? ... Eu fiz.

Lembremos sempre dos homens e mulheres de nossas forças armadas e dos direitos que conquistaram por nós.

In September of 2005, on the first day of school, Martha Cothren, a History teacher at Robinson High School in Little Rock, did something not to be forgotten. On the first day of school, with the permission of the school superintendent, the principal and the building supervisor, she removed all of the desks in her classroom. When the first period kids entered the room they discovered that there were no desks.

'Ms. Cothren, where are our desks?'

She replied, 'You can't have a desk until you tell me how you earn the right to sit at a desk.'

They thought, 'Well, maybe it's our grades.' 'No,' she said.

'Maybe it's our behavior.' She told them, 'No, it's not even your behavior.'

And so, they came and went, the first period, second period, third period. Still no desks in the classroom. Kids called their parents to tell them what was happening and by early afternoon television news crews had started gathering at the school to report about this crazy teacher who had taken all the desks out of her room.

The final period of the day came and as the puzzled students found seats on the floor of the desk-less classroom. Martha Cothren said, 'Throughout the day no one has been able to tell me just what he or she has done to earn the right to sit at the desks that are ordinarily found in this classroom. Now I am going to tell you.'

At this point, Martha Cothren went over to the door of her classroom and opened it. Twenty-seven (27) U.S. Veterans, all in uniform, walked into that classroom, each one carrying a school desk. The Vets began placing the school desks in rows, and then they would walk over and stand alongside the wall. By the time the last soldier had set the final desk in place those kids started to understand, perhaps for the first time in their lives, just how the right to sit at those desks had been earned.

Martha said, 'You didn't earn the right to sit at these desks. These heroes did it for you. They placed the desks here for you. They went halfway around the world, giving up their education and interrupting their careers and families so you could have the freedom you have. Now, it's up to you to sit in them. It is your responsibility to learn, to be good students, to be good citizens. They paid the price so that you could have the freedom to get an education. Don't ever forget it.'

By the way, this is a true story. And this teacher was awarded the Veterans of Foreign Wars Teacher of the Year for the State of Arkansas in 2006. She is the daughter of a WWII POW.

Do you think this email is worth passing along so others won't forget either, that the freedoms we have in this great country were earned by our U.S. Veterans?... I did.

Let us always remember the men and women of our military and the rights they have won for us.
