Peace, Prosperity, Happiness – A chosen path

By Maria

No matter where people live on Earth giving birth can be an empowering experience for any woman, however, the encounter comes with risks including maternal and infant death. One could say that those who live in Australia are luckier than some populations living in third world countries. But living in Australia does not stop mothers and babies dying in childbirth no matter what the colour of their skin is or what their cultural heritage is.

Birth as a ceremony to introduce new life into this world, acknowledging the passing from the spiritual world into the physical world is a western culture belief just as much as it is an eastern culture belief or any of the many First Nations cultures around the world.  

A birth rite is a religious or other solemn ceremony, and a human right defines the value and worth of each person and their relationship the world’s legal society. The dogma of every religion practiced on Earth since man’s existence here is a set of manmade rules and traditions designed to keep the congregation in order and following. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is a manmade dogma that came into being on a freezing winter night in 1948 in Paris to give the world a new list of rights and freedoms in being born “free and equal”. Every person on the planet hence forth received recognition of their legal human rights.

At least on paper.

Any person who believes that human rights provides human freedom from torture and discrimination, makes everyone fully equal under the law, and entitled to free movement, thought, conscience and religion among other rights is living in Lala land. Most people know nothing about the Universal Declaration’s 30 articles but do know and understand human rights do not really mean anything when governments sole panicked focus is on something like a COVID_19 virus.

The element of what humanity means is forgotten by the elite who enjoy and control the abstract human rights, on paper, existence. Christianity or being Christ like is to live in a world where the focus is on peace, prosperity, and happiness for all. These are the values that the Australian nation was founded on and where we need to return to if we want peace, prosperity, and happiness to be part of our cultural heritage.

The everyday Australian battler, sometimes called the forgotten Australian is included in a political fog, somewhere out there, somewhere there as a fuzzy sight, somewhere there as a hazy sound. Their individual journey is taken as interesting, as being a fact of life that is not newsworthy or requires the Australian parliament to stretch itself into discomfort.

For inclusion to be a transformation change tool the deadwood needs to be freed up so it can be whizzed away like driftwood in a swirling river flood then, after the storm calms, the freed up wood can drift to the ocean floating serenely into a life pulsing unexplored deep blue sapphire ocean seas, which allows it to be used in ways never before thought possible.
