Hello Minions,

(That’s a joke)

Hope you are well and all.

I wanted to chime in on the Katrina/Race issue with just some what I hope are basic reminders.

Firstly, this is officially a list related to “Jyotish”, which, as

we know, comes from India, which as we know, is a country that also posesses a

religios base that generally teaches the horizontal form of reincarnation based

on merit, and this means that the soul can take birth in any body, any race, any

species, to suit it’s ongoing karmic path.

So, as regards New Orleans, and African race people in general,

“they” are the same as “the whites” or anybody else,

because it’s just souls, but in bodies —indebted to suffer and

enjoy a particular set of circumstances-- just like everybody else.

So the question really is, “are African race people bound to suffer more

on Earth at this time in history than others”. In other words, karmicly

speaking, is that a “race which suffers at this time” VERY

generally speaking.

Yes. We have to admit that yes, it is. From poverty and war and droughts to

being looked down upon in non-African countries, the last race to suffer

widespread enslavement etc...

When white people in America look at large crowds of African Americans here,

they are not, generally speaking, as kind in their minds as they are when they

see their own. This is still true. Not for EVERYONE, but for many.

Here in Oregon there are hicks who drive around with huge confederate flags

mouted in the back of their pickup trucks, HUGE ones, way too big for a car,

they are really trying to make a point. That’s Oregon. Up here you

still have some white sumpremacy kind of feelings still, a good amount of

hatred of “others” still. There’s also TONS of hippies and

New Agers who feel diametrically the other way around from the hicks.

But I think America the country, the system, is pretty color blind.

That’s my overall personal impression. I’m fairly proud of how

well America and Americans deal with race. I know it’s far from perfect,

but overall there are many thousands of people in government who really try to

be color blind. I know I myself now and then check myself, and try to make

sure I’m color blind. There’s always an animal tendency to only

trust one’s own. But it is an animal tendency. It’s not spiritual

or religious to be a racist. Racism died long ago in human evolution, and some

just have not realized it yet.

Race is beautiful, but it’s also limited. It does not define us enough to

be considered important. It’s more of a flourish, a coloring, a touch of

class, a splash of splendor. It may even change what diseases we get, and

somewhat perhaps how we fell and think, why not?

But still, a black man, an arab man, a white man, a yellow man, we all have the

same needs, feelings, life patterns overall, inner organs, chemistry, etc.

It’s just the outter shell that adjusted it seems to different

environments and took on looks due to ancient migrations etc etc

Humans have to decide always between animal instincts and higher instincts which

are unique to humans. The higher type of thinking is what we call spiritual,

which is therefore not just about the body, the meat, but also about that inner

witness-sentient creature.

I see many Americans able to see above, and act accordingly.

Al (aapers) is a person who helps others, and is good at it. A caring person.

A real heartfelt and acts-on-it person.

He’s a heart of Gold.

But if you judged color, you might miss him.
