sage: China is part of BRICS which is opposing the global elite and is also home to the elders and White Dragon Society that is largely behind the global economic changes we are seeing come into view. This line in particular, “open, fair and transparent multilateral trade mechanism” sounds like a very good step learning how to conduct a cashless society.

President Xi Jinping urged G20 leaders on Friday to shoulder their responsibilities and boost free trade amid a recent global uptick in protectionism.

Xi made the request at the concluding session of the two-day G20 Leaders’ summit in St. Petersburg.

“At present, there has been an obvious rise in global trade protectionism. The multilateral trade system faces tremendous challenges that are not beneficial to the global economic recovery and are not in the interests of each (G20) country,” Xi said.

“The G20 countries should push forward a new round of expansion in global trade.”

Xi’s speech on Friday reiterated his position on Thursday that China is committed to an even, open, interdependent and mutually beneficial global economy. He said China is pushing for reforms in the international governance of the global economy while continuing its structural reforms at home.

Xi urged G20 countries to advance free global trade and oppose any form of trade protectionism and the use of defensive trade measures.

“We need to solve trade disputes through consultation and dialogue because any punitive measures will bring harm to others,” Xi said.

Xi asked G20 leaders to help create a multilateral trade system and resolve the Doha Development Round of trade negotiations. Xi also said each country should recognize its role in the global supply chain and work to coordinate their trade policies to facilitate global trade.

Xi said China has the tentative support of the World Trade Organization after he met with Roberto Azevedo, WTO’s new director-general, ahead of the G20 summit on Thursday.

Xi said a multilateral trade system, with the WTO at its core, can lay the foundation for free and open trade and would have greater advantages over regional trade systems.

“An open, fair and transparent multilateral trade mechanism conforms to the common interests of all countries,” Xi said.

He stressed that regional trade arrangements should also abide by the principles of transparency and inclusiveness and that they should serve to supplement and boost multilateral trade rules.

China hopes Azevedo will influence the WTO to actively push to resolve the Doha Round of global trade talks and to also oppose trade protectionism measures, Xi said.

China is a staunch supporter of a multilateral trade mechanism and will continue to be a responsible member of the WTO, he added.

Azevedo extended his appreciation for China’s support, saying the WTO hopes to strengthen cooperation with China to resolve the Doha Round of talks, fight against trade protectionism and safeguard the multilateral trade.

Sergei Sutyrin, head of the department of world economy at St. Petersburg State University, said China is a victim of trade protectionism measures from developed countries.

“Economic crises traditionally generate additional demand for this type of protectionism,” he said.

As the two-day summit wrapped up, G20 leaders agreed not to use any protectionism measures until 2016 as they commit to removing barriers and impediments to global trade and investment.

Here in the non physical realms we observe with wonder the amazing results that your loving intentions are achieving all across planet Earth. Right now, as you measure time, 99% or more of humanity wants a world of peace, harmony, forgiveness, and of course Love!

Consequently, there is a vast and ongoing outpouring of loving intent all across the world as those who keep themselves consciously aware of the disharmony, disunity, and bitterness that needs healing, maintain and strengthen their loving intent daily.

Your news media is reporting quite clearly now on the general disfavor with which people in those countries considering military intervention in the affairs of other nations view their leaders increasingly urgent and truly ill-considered attempts to persuade them that it is the right thing to do. They do not agree, and they see quite clearly that armed intervention in the affairs of others is utterly unjustifiable. Politicians and elected representatives yearn for and feed hungrily on approval, so with widespread disapproval threatened they quickly alter their opinions and change course.

To avert any and all military interventions keep on letting your elected officials know how strongly you disapprove of them, and at the same time intend that their hearts be opened to the continuous bombardment of Love that is raining down on all the inhabitants of Earth as the New Age establishes its presence ever more firmly. Refrain from judgment, from the intent or the desire for restitution or punishment of those you see as the cause of the intense suffering in many places, and seek instead – through the love and wisdom of those who are working constantly for peace – for meeting and reconciliation between all parties in conflict. And then watch with joy as it happens!

You are all immensely powerful beings of Love because that is how you were created, and you are now coming into awareness of this as you observe the amazing effects that your loving intentions are most definitely bringing about all across the planet. You are changing the world by being Love in action, and that is why you are on Earth at this moment in her history. It is not by accident thatany of you are here – those who love, those who hate, those who fear, those who attack, those who forgive – everyone of you chose to be on Earth for the part you needed to play to learn the lessons that you needed to learn. And you are all learning your lessons extremely well.

Before the New Age arrived in December 2012, your world had been enveloped in the consequences of eons of judgment, of betrayal, of abuse, and of an intense bitterness, because all on Earth have, at various times, been betrayed and have been the betrayers. This had spawned an ongoing desire for the capture and punishment of wrongdoers. But of course no one is “without sin;” everyone has done wrong however self-righteously they may have tried to present themselves to others, and to judge one another only aggravates the disharmony that has for so long endured on Earth.

Over the last three hundred years or so, a new awareness has been growing of the right of every human, without exception, to live free and with all their needs satisfied. As this awareness has grown laws have been passed in many nations that honors this divine truth, and the result has been a gradual opening of hearts to the field of divine Love in which all exist. Consequently, over the last one hundred years, and partly as a result of the horrendous wars that have been fought recently, this awareness has led to a vast increase in the numbers of those seeking to extend that entitlement to freedom to all of humanity. The results of that collective intent are evident in the social services that the more enlightened nations now offer to their citizens.

Effectively, an enormous change in the collective intent has been brought about, and that intent is now bearing fruit that is ripening rapidly – and it is fruit that will never decay, because it is the fruit of Love! Love is changing the world most gloriously for all of its inhabitants, and this can be clearly seen in the intense desire planet-wide to bring peace and abundance to all of humanity.

Do not be alarmed by the disruptions to social order or to the world economic systems that are happening and being much reported on. They are merely signs of the immense changes that are underway as humanity shakes off the shackles that it accepted by giving away its power to a tiny self-seeking and self-important minority, and which has kept it effectively bound and enslaved for eons. Humanity is now reclaiming its power, and with it the love and the wisdom to use it as always divinely intended: to create joy and abundance for all.

Continue to hold love constantly in your hearts and to share it indiscriminately as the New Age becomes securely anchored, permanently, in the hearts of all of humanity. Love is your nature. You are embracing It enthusiastically and discovering that nothing has ever worked so well for you. The promise of Love is being abundantly delivered to all who choose to accept it. Make sure that you are one of those by just allowing It to completely suffuse you. You need do nothing else but allow. God then takes the next step, and the consequences will be utterly mind-blowing as Reality dawns on you, and all that has ever hurt, frightened, or worried you dissolves without trace.

With so very much love, Saul.

Jesus: Time Spent in Meditation or Contemplation is All About Ego-Training. Channelled by John Smallman. September 8, 2013. http://wp.me/p1B8dY-gp

John’s reading of today’s post can be found here: http://johnsmallman2.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/2013-09-08-jesus-audio-blog-for-sunday-sept-8th.mp3

Here in the spiritual or non-physical realms we are always happy, content, at peace, and in joy, but now you could describe us as being euphoric as we observe the fantastic progress you are making in releasing the remaining aspects of yourselves that no longer serve you as the moment of your awakening approaches. That moment truly is far closer than most of you imagine, for you are on course and precisely on your Divinely arranged schedule, and joyful euphoria awaits you.

As you take time out for regular and frequent visits to your quiet inner space, continue to focus on intending to be loving in every moment, and to be channels through which the Divine field of Love enveloping you all can spread outwards to embrace all of humanity – remember that even just a few seconds of your time spent setting your intent are inordinately effective.

What you intend occurs, always. However, you do not always see your intentions very clearly, and therefore you are quite often surprised by unexpected events.

Your lifepaths and the events that will meet you on them were very carefully planned and orchestrated before you incarnated, but once you are born into this human life your egos become increasingly influential, and the desires and inclinations that they choose to follow frequently interfere with the intentions of your True Selves.

Your egos are very necessary aspects of your lives as humans, but too often they succeed in distracting you from your spiritual intent, which is why we – your spiritual Guides, Mentors, and Guardian Angels – keep reminding you of the importance of taking time out to go within and reconnect with your spiritual center.

That time spent silently and at peace in your quiet, inner personal space is essential in the training of your ego so that it may align with your higher Mind and become a co-operative flow of energy instead of a distracting one. It is a little like a child that needs constant acknowledgment and confirmation as it grows so that it can develop fully into the wise and loving adult human being that its parents are hoping it will become.

Time spent in meditation, contemplation, or reflection is all about ego-training, and if you enter that quiet inner space with enthusiasm, loving intent, and self-acceptance, as opposed to negative self-judgment that you focus severely on your seeming inadequacies, you will find your ego, like an excitedly expectant child, co-operating very willingly.

A human life in the illusion is a very difficult undertaking. Originally, at the moment of apparent separation from your Divine Source, you were One, seeking a different experience or expression of consciousness, and you did this by the separation, by the splitting-off of Yourself into myriad individual conscious entities, each with free will.

Your true One-Self desires to awaken, but to do so it must bring all the myriad individual entities, each an essential and irreplaceable part of itself, along with it. Your true One-Mind, the only Child of God, has a will that is one with God’s, that is totally in alignment with the Will of God. On Earth, within the illusion, all those individual entities with free will need to bring those individual wills into alignment with each other, with the True Self that you are all a part of.

Love is the Divine, creative field of infinite energy in which all exists; It is all there is; there is nothing outside It because there is no outside, and anything that is not in perfect alignment with It is unreal. However, the illusion that the One Child of God imagined into being seems utterly real to all the entities experiencing it.

Awakening is the release of the imaginary, of the unreal – which is anything, any aspect of an entity that is not completely in alignment with Love. Your egos are a vast, imaginary field of seemingly individual needs, wants, and desires that extremely frequently conflict with each other and display this disunity in arguments, disagreements, and war. You can see this all around you, and it is continuously demonstrated throughout your human history.

To awaken is to acknowledge and to be Love, and only Love. As you observe the world and all the discordances it displays, it can seem that there is absolutely no possibility that they can all be resolved in a manner that will satisfy everyone. But that is because you are attempting to resolve these issues with your egoic reasoning minds. And that is impossible. They, your reasoning minds, demand compromise, judgment, restitution, recognition that some are right and others wrong, with the latter being punished, and those demands can only be self-serving, angry, and divisive. Your human history continuously demonstrates that very clearly.

That is why we are constantly telling you that Love is the answer to every problem. Love is the only means of resolution, and It is completely effective because It embraces all unconditionally without judgment of any kind. The prospect of offering only Love regardless of the situation is very scary for humans because they look all the time – constantly, in fact – at the unreal and believe it to be real. In Love, in Reality, there is no conflict; all is in Divine and perfect harmony, and for you to awaken you need to embrace and share Love inclusively and indiscriminately.

“But,” you ask, “how can that possibly work? I surely must defend myself and my Loved Ones from those who would attack us and destroy us?” Well. . . all are One, and what you do to others you do to yourselves. So stop doing to others what you do not want them to do to you. Stop it now. The longer you continue with attack or defense the longer you will remain unawakened.

You are all now being enormously assisted by the Divine energy field of Love enveloping you and encouraging you to share it, and you know this. When you go within and disconnect even for the briefest moment from the distractions of the illusion – fear, anxiety, worry, anger, judgment – you find peace. Peace is what everyone seeks.

You have all seen the ineffectiveness of angry judgment or punishment on a distraught child: it aggravates the situation or drives it underground. And you have all seen the calming effects of quiet loving acceptance on a distraught child, or on an animal. That is Love in action! Practice it constantly. . . and bring on your Awakening.

Your loving brother, Jesus.

The Manuscript of Survival – Part 351, channeled by Aisha North, September 7, 2013 at http://aishanorth.wordpress.com

As you have been made more than aware of lately, the winds of change have not abated, and neither are they about to. We hear groans of agony from many of you, but let us just assure you that in this, you will find encouragement and support, not destruction and chaos.

For as you have all chosen your destiny a long time ago by opening up for these energetic emissions early on, you will find that these winds will literally fill your sails and give you better momentum towards your destination. In other words, what for some will be construed as a devastating blow to their illusion, will for you become a mighty push in the back.

So treasure these powerful winds for all that they are, and for all that they bring. But for those still clinging on to the loosening roots that keep them precariously tethered to the old, it will not be good news. For this time, the roots will finally start to give, and unless they shift their grip and grab on to something more substantial such as you have, they will find themselves in a free fall towards seeming oblivion.

For in this, all have a choice, and still, the choice is an open one for those yet undecided. But remember, the timeframe for that final decision, for that is truly what it is, is not an indefinite one. Rather, there will come a turning point that says yes or no, as in ” yes, I want to relinquish my grip on the old and crumbling world of yesteryear”, or “no, I refuse to open my eyes and my heart to this powerful light”.

And so the time to choose directions is upon you all now, and for those still clinging to the old, they will find their precarious anchoring about to come loose once and for all. Remember, the old cannot survive in this powerful light that keeps pouring it, for it cannot thrive in such a high vibration that is becoming the new source for this whole planet. For you Mother Earth has already started to hum to a quite different tune than before, and as such, everyone not humming alongside her will feel very much out of tune in all sorts of ways.

So for those still putting their fingers in their ears to block out the sound of NOW, it will be a hard time ahead indeed. Just remember, everyone can sing along with this new heavenly vibration – if they choose to do so. No one is excluded from this, all it takes is to literally unplug their ears and their heart, and the song itself will fill them up to overflowing.

So again we say, remember that this is a choice that each and every member of the human race must take for themselves, and it is a choice that must be taken on a soul level, not a superficial one. For then, and only then, will you start to listen with your heart, and that is the only way to be able to join in this uplifting choir of human voices that is already singing along with that beautiful tune of the heavens above and the Earth below.
