Wesak, Full Moon in Taurus

The ancient ceremony of Wesak, began in the East, in Tibet. Wesak is a celebration of the birth, the
enlightenment, and the death of Buddha all of which occurred during the full moon of Taurus.


Nowadays, many Buddhist groups are still celebrating Wesak; during this old rite they give the public the opportunity to learn the teachings of Lord Buddha, and realize the existence of a Higher Brotherhood and the close link some can have.


The festival of Wesak ( named after a valley in Tibet ), is able to unify both eastern and western spirituality. It is said, that Christ and Buddha, are present, together, during this sacred ceremony, to signify the strong, unifying, link, between the two divines,


The main aim of the festival is to let know, to the world, the teachings of the Lord Buddha, and to evoke the spirit of Peace ,on earth.


Since the year 1946 this ceremony had spread in the western world,too.


The focus of the Wesak in Taurus, lies in three major steps, three keys to the world-development, if we want to go further in social evolution:


a) the Unity, it means we must be able to find the hidden consciousness in any living thing.

b)the uncovering of the new vision of “group-awareness”, the task of the Aquarian Age.

c)the discovery in ourselves, of the Heart, as an instrument of spiritual synthesis.


The Heart chakra, represents much more than the usual sentiment with which we are accustomed.

It is an higher state; with Its help, we should be able to live out brotherhood in each encounter we have. Perhaps, this brother, is needing you.. What can I do to help him?


The Heart doesn't look after Itself, instead Its focus is to take out the best in each person and situation.


To live up to your Heart -potential, you must show an awareness of the others need.


A unified meditation,such as is done all over the world on the day of the Wesak, moves mountains!

Task-force against human trafficking




On April the 7th, Cambodia launched the first national task-force against human trafficking.


Cambodian Ministry of Women's Affair, launched the kingdom's first task-force to take human trafficking effectively.

This statement has been reported by, You Ay, secretary of state of the ministry.


This is a unified campaign to combat all forms of trafficking of men, women and children for slave labour, begging and prostitution.


“ Cambodia will not tolerate exploitation”, she added!


This force comprise 14 ministers and institutions to eliminate trafficking and assist victims.

Official reports said that thousands of Cambodians are exploited to work as sex slaves in Malaysia, Japan, China-Taiwan and Hong Kong, Qatar, Somali and Saudi Arabia.


Children are used as sex-toy for tourists ,and young women, too.


Prostitution, abuse...the dark side of the richer countries.

All over Asia, a large domestic consciousness ,is taking place, as a consequence of these legal steps .


It is really important that this Cambodia's standing- position has come from this exploited country.

It should be really difficult and brave to fight corruptions, there.


Exploitation is ruled by the planet Neptune. Neptune rules, also, the United Nations.


Joining forces will bring victory in the end, and this huge problem will be seen, with the time, as a remaining of a dark period in history.


Many spiritual scientists are working together, in groups or teams, to stop effectively this plague.


The exploitation of children and its solution, will open the way for the coming New Legislation , of the New Millennium .

OBESITY, as a distortion of...



If we consider obesity as a sickness on both physical and psychological levels, we might say that its roots are found in the quality of “beauty”, and the consequent distortion of it.


How can beauty be the origin of a sickness?


In our society beauty covers the meaning of “quality” in life, means desire, longing for wishes, represents the appearance, aesthetics, the image; an entire business-culture , is shaped out of it.


When someone is unable to get what he believes is beauty , generates a psychological, inner imbalance, which brings forth , a bent for illness.


This friction between the ideal and the reality, causes, ultimately the illness.


The Tibetan Master D.K. says that:” Many men are sick because they run after beauty, not knowing that beauty it is a divine quality, one of the many attributes of the Soul”

The real source of the beauty is unknown, to the average man, than, the inner friction, and the gap, appear.

Obesity is related to a lack of harmony in the workings of the planet Jupiter , in Astrology. Jupiter, the planet of expansion,

of growth, when is found in stress -position, in an astrological reading, causes overeating disorders, overweights, adipose tissues and obesities.


Jupiter, in the Soul-centered Astrology ,rules the constellation of Aquarius, and we are entering into this Era, we are in the very beginning.

This is one of the conclusions, I came, in order to explain the growing problem of obesity, in the western countries.


Children ,too, are affected by it, lately. An huge problem is growing in our planet,, along with the growth of the opposite one, such as anorexia. Anorexia, for good, has to do a lot, with beauty.


If we are open to the teachings of the spiritual sciences, perhaps , a solution is found.


Beauty is related to the heart-chakra and this chakra has to do with true Love, Love found only in Universal Brotherhood, in non-separatists tendencies, the Higher type of Love,and this may be the secret key to heal!

The day after...



I feel a strong urge to write down few words on the “day after” ,Virginia's bewilderment.


I am not delving into the personal or national mistakes, there will be, already, lot of talking about it.


I would like to participate in the huge work of building new avenues for the betterment of this society.


Wherever you are , there, is the road; and the youngsters learn it,the hard way!


By experience, I saw, that this youth need to be helped by us all, parents and educators, because of their enormous potentiality.


They are sent to fight in wars, they are deadly shot for stupid reasons, they find difficulties and blocks in finding all kinds of jobs. This, is happening under our eyes, in America and Europe, on a daily base.


This generation was born with the planet Pluto in the sign of Scorpio, (1982-1995), and this is a combination which generates a fighting generation, a “delving one”!

There is strength to fight for the good and stamina to win , against all odds, but if you try to obstruct it

this force can turn back, with heavy consequences.


They were born during the spreading of the AIDS in the world,, and they had to confront, for the first time in the modern era, the problem of sex.

Spiritually, they are the ones who will learn the death of desire, so that, true Love, may flow.


They are “the Transformers”; some, among them, will be able to change human consciousness.


Please , in silence, stare them into their eyes, especially when they speak from their heart!

You may find conviction.

The collective is really important to them, and they will regenerate present conditions, with concrete actions.


On the other hand , they are born with the planet Neptune in the sign of Capricorn (1984-1998), because of this configuration, they have hard time to develop the mystical side of this planet, the Soul has difficulties to raise above lower levels.

They seem to be trapped in an hypnotic struggle for personal power.


Again, some of them, will find the way to climb heights, because true values stand on their side!

The are the “Climbers”.


Often, in my work I am involved with this youth, and I encourage them to show new values and be responsive to Uranus, the planet which was in the sign Sagittarius, at their birth.


Uranus, in this sign, points to the “New Philosopher”, brings forth the flag of the New Age; this generation can be a Path-finder, for the new children.


I have experienced, that, if I tell them, some true values, these suggestions can represent a key to clarify their believes .

We should always be ready to help them ; if we heal friendly, with an open heart, we can find answers and relations from them.



You are never alone, beautiful youth; there is much Love by your side. And ,for sure, you are starting to build, in your own, unique way, a new Society!

Full Moon in Aries

The day of full-moon occurs when the moon is in opposition to the sun. This month the sun is in Aries and the full moon is in Libra.

This is a very special period of the year, the winter solstice is past and the spring equinox has just begun.

Winter seems to be the most spiritual period of the whole year, it is a reflective period. We are more self contained: our ideas, our projects, our way of thinking become more intimate, and we tend to grow, mostly, within ourselves. We are more on the yang-side of the yin-yang polarities.

Our potentialities, like seeds,
lie dormant during the winter.
When the springtime comes, these seeds come to the surface searching for the light. We are like the flowers, giving birth, to ideas, projects, and aspirations, as with the sunshine, prana reaches us with encreasingly strength.

From the spring equinox to the summer solstice as, from March 21 till the 21 of June, there is a growing energy in the air: This is a real help for the physical body, the mind and the spirit, a healing wave which restores and motivates us, once again.

During winter-time we tend to be more assertive spiritually, more yang. During the spring and the summer-time, we should shift to a more yin polarity.

To aid this shift, our attitude becomes more receptive, more open to the rays of the sun, the spiritual energy is able to “impress” the one who is open and prepared to receiving it. The full-moon in Aries carries a lot of energetic inputs, is time of the rebirth in anything.

This times marks a “passage” (Easter means, also passage), from dark to light, from life below the earth to her surface, from silence to sound.

In reality, each full moon is the celebration of more light, it is the Moon which is receiving the Sun's rays for twentyfour hours.

Knowing this, there is a worldwide act of meditation, at each full moon but in particular, when the sun is in: Aries, Taurus, and Gemini.
An encreasing spiritual energy is at our disposal at this time, and the meditators are fused on a higher level with heightned spiritual activity, which cannot be found, in such way, during other days of the month.

This mass meditation is a huge work on the higher levels, it is extremely beneficial for us all, because it is shared with the whole of humanity.

This bridge connects the higher levels with the lower level, it comes from different sources all over the world with a focussed intent to bring more peace and harmony; it can inspire people to solve difficult problems and find solutions to change difficult world-conditions.

The group is greater than the sum of the parts: it is a world-group-meditation, the like of which has never happened before.

The quality of the energies of each sign energize the entire month. During the day of the full-moon, this type of energy reaches its climax.

A true loving and enlighted network of people is in action during the whole year, and we, all, can benefit from it!
