A few thoughts.
“Three scientists have won the 2020 Nobel prize in physics for their work on black hole formation and the discovery of a supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy.
Sir Roger Penrose, Reinhard Genzel and Andrea Ghez together scooped the 114th Nobel prize in physics. Prof Penrose, a British mathematical physicist based at the University of Oxford, won his share of the prize for using innovative mathematical techniques to prove that the formation of black holes is an inevitable consequence of Einstein’s general theory of relativity, and hence can truly exist. His groundbreaking paper [was] published in 1965.”
In Africa, people can be chained for years. This is an ongoing story, not the only one unfortunately, that I have been following. “Under a hot sun in Harmattan season, in the little village of Zorkor, we met Baba, a 30-year-old man in a horrible condition, shackled and chained under a Boabab tree just in front of his family house.
I saw him naked, sitting on faeces. There was an old mat which was wet with urine serving as a bed and a black bag which I think he used to cover himself when the rains came. He had not bathed for months and he smelled very bad.
The Guardian published the story of Babaand it seems people were moved by it ” just days after the story was published, my organization, the Mental Health Advocacy Foundation (MHAF), began receiving donations to support Baba. I was amazed and delighted. This meant that I could assist Baba and his family. A community mental health officer and a local NGO were able to help, and in December I was told that he was responding to treatment and plans were in place to free him from the shackles.
But when I travelled back to visit Baba in February, I was so sad to find him still chained naked under the Boabab tree. He was being given his medication but the local health workers said his family, who had to go to work and leave his elderly mother alone, were still afraid that he might attack her.”

What’s changing: The social media giant said it will remove any pages, groups and Instagram accounts linked to the baseless fringe movement, which is celebrated by some on the far right.” if QAnon comments and propaganda are innocuous, why bother?
FRATELLI TUTTI, the new Encyclical
Not sure if I agree on the Vatican’s romanticized version of Saint Francis and motives, but this is an amazingly thorough analysis of the situation.
Raw, realistic, including Muslims : “In my fraternal meeting, which I gladly recall, with the Grand Imam Ahmad Al-Tayyeb, “we resolutely [declared] that religions must never incite war, hateful attitudes, hostility and extremism, nor must they incite violence or the shedding of blood. These tragic realities are the consequence of a deviation from religious teachings.”
All the signs of auto-destruction and decomposition of our world are examined, without complacency. No one and nothing is spared, the ‘frenzy of texting,’ the wall, the ongoing lies of economical powers.
. ‘Our own days, however, seem to be showing signs of a certain regression. Ancient conflicts thought long buried are breaking out anew, while instances of a myopic, extremist, resentful and aggressive nationalism are on the rise. In some countries, a concept of popular and national unity influenced by various ideologies is creating new forms of selfishness and a loss of the social sense under the guise of defending national interests.’
Opening up to the world” is an expression that has been co-opted by the economic and financial sector and is now used exclusively of openness to foreign interests or to the freedom of economic powers to invest without obstacles or complications … the advance of this kind of globalism strengthens the identity of the more powerful […].
A kind of “deconstructionism”, whereby human freedom claims to create everything starting from zero,… Let us not forget that “peoples that abandon their tradition and, either from a craze to mimic others or to foment violence, or from unpardonable negligence or apathy, allow others to rob their very soul, end up losing not only their spiritual identity but also their moral consistency and, in the end, their intellectual, economic and political independence”.
Everything has become a kind of spectacle to be examined and inspected, and people’s lives are now under constant surveillance”, with the ‘illusion of communication’
” Under the guise of being politically correct or ideologically fashionable, we look at those who suffer without touching them. We televise live pictures of them, even speaking about them with euphemisms and with apparent tolerance”.
I was going to give the Pope a 10… had an idea… December 2019:
Even if we forget about the real estate scandals that ended up with the resignation of …. There is more: “the Vatican has used the majority of donations to Peter’s Pence collection on plugging its administrative budget. “šÂ¬50 million ($55 million) annually, goes toward plugging the hole in the Vatican’s own administrative budget, while as little as 10% is spent on charitable works, according to people familiar with the funds.”

ok, let’s go back to the greatness of his discourse: “we have had enough of immorality and the mockery of ethics, goodness, faith and honesty. It is time to acknowledge that light-hearted superficiality has done us no good.”
You are truly encouraged to read the paragraph ‘social role of private property’. What is the Pope advocating for? These are dangerous political grounds. “the Christian tradition has never recognized the right to private property as absolute or inviolable, and has stressed the social purpose of all forms of private propert”€. And exactly do we share if our neighbor’s consciousness is … whatever and he/she does not want to work?
Also, funny, of one knows how long it takes (I wonder if it is still possible) to organize a very guarded tour inside the Vatican Bastion and how challenging it is to attempt a glimpse elsewhere than the organized path through the Vatican museums. Only Robert Langdon could imaging facing in trouble with a Swiss guard…
And another political kick: “If a certain kind of globalization claims to make everyone uniform, to level everyone out, that globalization destroys the rich gifts and uniqueness of each person and each people.”
Although I admit that I did not read thoroughly until the end, the prayers are beautiful and a good tool for Christians. It is still a wonder why the Catholic Church is avoiding all comments about the Parousia, la Presence or Second Coming (Return in French).
The Parousia is, in the Christian faith, the permanent accomplishment of God’s kingdom on earth, sometimes described by Saint Paul as Its manifestation (epiphanie in Grec) or revelation (‘apocalypse’). The End of Times, the end of the Mayan Calendar; The de-structuration of the world as we know it brought by the planetary transits and the dance of Saturn, the sudden shift imposed with Covid19, the millions living in such misery that we prefer to ignore it, and then the crown on top of the cake, Covid19…. Not enough to think about the End of Times?
Someone posted a very nice comment ‘God is incarnating in humans heart”. Did not check if the quote is truly from Carl Jung but we love it. Thank you. (Website : www.ascensionnow.co.uk)
Yes, everyone, each and everyone is invited to reach the Christ Consciousness, the balance of self, energies, spiritual bodies in the heart. Yet, the Creator-god has uncannily and mysteriously always been with you and sometimes more present than others. Or, parts of the Creator-god have been able to manifest that were not able to manifest before. Because we all work together, the Creator-god, in His Will to descent and incarnate and humans in their desire to ascend and lose a little more of their density.
yet, the process would be more effective, less painful if there was awareness; if the occult and secrecy was finally lifted. It can only lifted when humans are ready.
Is the the Catholic Church ready?
Also, is the Church ignoring the message of the Earth, crying for human consciousness to be opened to more levels of divine intelligence? Do we need more fires, more hurricanes? More earthquakes? We need an earthquake in human consciousness, a kick in their ego, their lust and their selfishness; a grand tremor in the powers in place.
I am grateful to the Vatican for this publication, yet surprised, and asking for more clarity. Will the Divine provide for more clarity or are we, incarnated fools or Divine Innocents destined to continue crawling like worms through beloved bills, responsibilities, and advertising thrown to our face every second, in our own home?
And for our fun, our young diva:
