One day last week as I was doing research on the oil spill I realized that in all the articles, and videos and such that what was lacking in the discussion was the spiritual perspective on all this. And that bothered me. I felt like the teachers that helped me so much on this journey were all talk, and at the moment of crisis where their light was so desperately needed they were nowhere to be found.
I couldn’t have been more wrong.
I wrote a letter, which I’m going to share with you below. Following it, you’ll find the response I got a few short days later.
Hello Evolutionary Leaders!
My name is Crystal Storm. I consider myself a spiritual activist, another
soul on this amazing journey of conscious evolution. I’m writing because
I have a concern, and a question for you all. I live in New Orleans, and
a lot of my attention is focused on this oil spill. Now, let me say that
I can see the light at the end of this tunnel. It is my sincere hope, and
intent, that this disaster will help wake people up to a few things. One,
that we can’t keep doing what we’re doing to our home, and two it will
push people to start creating the demand for renewable energy, the
technologies that can co-exist safely with this wonderful planet. They are
already out there, we just have to grasp them. Three, I think it will help
awaken us to understand how connected we all our, not just with each
other, but with the Earth. So, I do know that a lot of good can come out
of this.
However, I am also a practical revolutionist. There are major, major
concerns regarding this oil spill that I don’t believe should be ignored.
I’m not one to just sit around and meditate on it. I have sent out my
prayers, I continue to do so. I have sent out my love, I will continue to
do so. However, intent also needs action for manifestation (at least I
think it does anyway, hehe.) So, while I’ve scoured the alternative news
to find as much real information as I can get on what’s going on I find
that there is utter silence from what I’ll call the spiritual community
and that bothers me. It’s very possible that I’m missing it, the internet
is a big place. If I’m looking for information you’ve already posted
somewhere else if you could toss me a link or two that would be awesome!
An idea popped into my head this evening that since I am a radio show
host, and a writer, I’d like to share your voice on this matter with as
many people as I can. There is so much fear, and despair, and loss of
hope, especially from so many people who live in these areas. I respect
everyone’s journey and I know that a lot of times suffering is the
catalyst for evolution, but there still needs to be a light. So, I’m
hoping you’ll be able to take a moment out of your terribly busy schedules
and tell me;
What do you think of this disaster?
What do you think we, as a collective should be doing to combat it?
What do you see as the end result?
Thank you so, so much for your time, and for everything that you do!
Namaste,
Crystal
