“ … Here is another one. A change in what Human nature will allow for government. "Careful, Kryon, don't talk about politics. You'll get in trouble." I won't get in trouble. I'm going to tell you to watch for leadership that cares about you. "You mean politics is going to change?" It already has. It's beginning. Watch for it. You're going to see a total phase-out of old energy dictatorships eventually. The potential is that you're going to see that before 2013.

They're going to fall over, you know, because the energy of the population will not sustain an old energy leader ..."

Kryon Q&A

Question: Dear Kryon: I live in Spain. I am sorry if I will ask you a question you might have already answered, but the translations of your books are very slow and I might not have gathered all information you have already given. I am quite concerned about abandoned animals. It seems that many people buy animals for their children and as soon as they grow, they set them out somewhere. Recently I had the occasion to see a small kitten in the middle of the street. I did not immediately react, since I could have stopped and taken it, without getting out of the car. So, I went on and at the first occasion I could turn, I went back to see if I could take the kitten, but it was to late, somebody had already killed it. This happened some month ago, but I still feel very sorry for that kitten. I just would like to know, what kind of entity are these animals and how does this fit in our world. Are these entities which choose this kind of life, like we do choose our kind of Human life? I see so many abandoned animals and every time I see one, my heart aches... I would like to know more about them.

Answer: Dear one, indeed the answer has been given, but let us give it again so you all understand. Animals are here on earth for three (3) reasons.

(1) The balance of biological life. . . the circle of energy that is needed for you to exist in what you call "nature."

(2) To be harvested. Yes, it's true. Many exist for your sustenance, and this is appropriate. It is a harmony between Human and animal, and always has. Remember the buffalo that willingly came into the indigenous tribes to be sacrificed when called? These are stories that you should examine again. The inappropriateness of today's culture is how these precious creatures are treated. Did you know that if there was an honoring ceremony at their death, they would nourish you better? Did you know that there is ceremony that could benefit all of humanity in this way. Perhaps it's time you saw it.

(3) To be loved and to love. For many cultures, animals serve as surrogate children, loved and taken care of. It gives Humans a chance to show compassion when they need it, and to have unconditional love when they need it. This is extremely important to many, and provides balance and centering for many.

Do animals know all this? At a basic level, they do. Not in the way you "know," but in a cellular awareness they understand that they are here in service to planet earth. If you honor them in all three instances, then balance will be the result. Your feelings about their treatment is important. Temper your reactions with the spiritual logic of their appropriateness and their service to humanity. Honor them in all three cases.

Ship carrying 250 sinks in rough seas off West Sulawesi

Andi Hajramurni and Nurni Sulaiman, The Jakarta Post, Makassar and Balikpapan | Mon, 01/12/2009 9:29 AM

A ship carrying 250 passengers and 17 crew members sank in rough seas in waters off Baturoro in Majene regency, West Sulawesi, on Sunday.

Rustam Pakaya, head of the Health Ministry’s crisis center, said six people had been confirmed dead in the accident, Reuters reported.

A joint search-and-rescue team pulled 150 passengers from the water, and 18 others were rescued by fishermen.

The ship had departed from Pare-pare in South Sulawesi at 5:45 p.m. local time (4:45 p.m. Jakarta time) on Saturday on a voyage through the Makassar Strait to Samarinda, capital of East Kalimantan.

The ship sank at about 4 a.m. after being hit by a cyclone in rough seas.

“There’s currently a tropical cyclone that is causing tides of 5 to 6 meters,” Jusman Syafi’i Djamal told Reuters.

Transportation Ministry spokesman Bambang Ervan said the missing persons had not been acounted for.

"We still don't know whether they had lifejackets on when the ship was hit, and it happened at dawn so most people were probably asleep," he said.

The 747-ton ship, skippered by captain Sabir, sent its last transmission at 2 a.m. to the Pare-pare port, the port administrator Nurwahidah said.

The ship was seaworthy and was not overcrowded, port authority official Taufik said.

“The accident was purely caused by bad weather,” he added.

Hundreds of ships have been lost in Indonesian waters, many due to overcrowding or poor maintenance.

In December 2006, about 500 people were killed when a ship sank during a storm in the Java Sea.

Majene Police reported that 18 passengers -- including three crew members and the captain -- had been found alive by local fishermen.

A worker at the Majene port master office, Bakri, said his office had learned of the accident at about 4 p.m. after the ship’s cook Ahmad, who was among the rescued passengers, filed a report with the port master office.

Ahmad said the ship had been capsized by waves that had risen 2 meters above the deck of the ship.

Authorities said it was likely the ship sank about 50 kilometers from the coast.

In Samarinda, 12 residents gave the names of 34 relatives onboard the ship, according to Samarinda seaport police chief Adj. Comr. Handoko.

He said other passengers’ relatives might still be unaware of the accident. “The ship was scheduled to arrive in Samarinda on Monday at 8 a.m.,” he said.

Police have assigned a team to gather and distribute information about the accident.
