Dear Ones,
We are concerned about the prevalence of hatred in the cultures on Planet Earth at this time. Too many adults are spouting hatred and hateful words and the children are learning that this is the way of the world. Nothing could be further from the Truth but if all the children see is hatred and prejudice then they will know nothing better as they grow into adulthood.
This situation must change if there is to be a better tomorrow for the young people.
Hatred of one culture for another has brought about many wars in human history and has damaged the forward progress of human evolution. It is as if humanity comes to a standstill when groups are spreading hatred around the planet. There can be no growth and prosperity when hatred is the overarching energy.
Now there will be those who say they enjoy great prosperity when there is war because they profit monetarily from the conflict, caring not who wins, loses or dies because they realize their profit regardless of the victor. But this is not true prosperity for the energy is not of abundance but merely of the accumulation of money with the blood of war tainting it.
But those who would be truly prosperous do not wish to do so at the expense of the lives of others. There is abundance in the Universe but it is not accessed through the doorway of hatred.
Think about teaching children to hate others. What does this benefit the child or the adult that they will later become? Hatred is a detrimental energy, to the one who hates far more than to the victim of that hatred. The energy of hatred causes physical harm to those who hold onto it. Internal organs are bathed in a kind of static electricity that damages the very cells of those organs. Haters do not live comfortable, healthy lives into old age because they have damaged their own electric energy fields. This also affects those who live around these people.
Is this what you want for your children? Do you really want them to learn by your example when you express your hatred for someone or something? What does that really mean to you?
In the 21st Century there are many human beings who are driven by a hatred for another group of human beings for various reasons – religion, race, sexual orientation, political beliefs, cultural differences, nationality, material possessions, beauty, accomplishments and a host of other reasons. And yet these other people are also human and deserve to be treated with respect if for no other reason than that they, too, belong to the human race.
There are also purveyors of hatred who enjoy charging up their audience to aim their hate energy at the ‘other.’ These purveyors are taking on an immense amount of the karma of their actions as they incite others to acts of violence, against themselves and other people. If there could be a vision of the magnifying effects of projecting hatred then perhaps some of these people would stop and examine their behavior. But too many choose to continue to behave with venom and a vituperative nature.
Your work is to examine yourself and your life and watch for the word ‘hate’ to show up in your speech. Do you commonly say, “I hate this!” or “I hate when _____”? Please remove this word from your vocabulary as it has an energetic effect on you even if you are not as mired in hatred as some other vitriolic persons might be.
Examine what you are modeling for the children and young adults around you. Is there a group of people with whom you disagree? Do you treat the disagreement as separate from the human being so that you can respect a person’s right to have a difference of opinion yet still see that they do not deserve your hatred?
Are you modeling tolerance for those who are different from you?
Choose to model love, the kind of unconditional love that all great spiritual teachers have asked of you for millennia. Love and accept those who are different. Agree to disagree on an intellectual level without hating the person who dares to argue with you. Teach your children to love others and to settle differences without hatred or war.
Mother Earth wants all of her children to live together peacefully. Hatred destroys her balance.
And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: What the World Needs Now is Love, Sweet Love
March 7, 2012 — RosemaryIt’s difficult to discuss ‘hatred’ because I really don’t like to feel the energy of that word. I learned long ago to remove it from my vocabulary because it has a damaging effect on one’s liver just to speak it. I don’t ‘hate’ mushrooms but I choose not to eat them. If I’m having a bad hair day, I don’t ‘hate’ my hair.
So it is interesting that this message uses the word and energy so often. What is the meaning? What’s the point?
I think the energy of hatred is all around us and we need to raise our consciousness of the effects of living with that energy non-stop. We probably don’t even hear the word anymore with the sensitivity it deserves. And there are those who speak of that energy without ever using the word so we really have to lift our awareness into understanding that ‘hatred’ is what is meant by the language.
There are so many groups today who work for separation into ‘us’ and ‘them.’ They ‘other-ize’ groups that are different and somehow that makes the other lesser beings. Really? Is that being an evolving human being? Since when has a different religious belief meant that the other person is a lesser being?
Since there have been religions, I suppose. When I hear people spout political beliefs as if they have all the answers and anyone who disagrees with them is evil [yes, I’ve heard that] then I understand that demonizing the other has become a national, and maybe international, pastime.
The polite way to discuss politics is to talk about ‘negative ads’ but isn’t that a euphemism for spewing hatred? Or, if not spewing, then inciting? What have we come to as a human race if this is the behavior that we condone?
My dream is that human beings will find a way to cooperate rather than compete, to see that the good of the many includes the good of the individuals, and to raise young people to want to help others, not hurt or destroy them. Is that too much to ask?
I believe that human beings are capable of great things – great love, great art, great advances in understanding on many levels. What if the future held the possibility of a world where there was no hatred, no war, no ‘otherness’? What if the discovery of many other planets in the Universe caused us to join together as Earthlings and find a way to live together so that we could be a unified people in the Cosmos? How attractive does that sound to you?
We really are all one human being, the body of humanity living and breathing with many sets of lungs and many hearts and heads, but we are all connected in this many-membered organism. The sooner we learn and accept this the less ‘otherness’ will play in our lives. If we understand and feel our connection to all others perhaps we will not need to legislate against a group whose beliefs differ from ours. Maybe we can stop killing over jealousy or anger or hatred. Maybe we can learn to live and let live despite differences.
Remember the song, ‘What the World Needs Now Is Love, Sweet Love’? How long ago was that song popular? Are things really that different today?
Go about your day today spreading love. Don’t listen to words of hatred but turn the conversation around. Catch yourself if you are speaking vitriol and stop it. Listen to your children to see if they have created a mindset of otherness, if they see themselves as better than those who are different. Many teenagers, in fact, probably most, see themselves as different and they just want to fit in with their peers. Yet there are too many teen suicides because they encounter hatred for their differences. Please stop the hatred now.
Let’s all commit to being 21st Century human beings who love. Let’s counteract those who would spread hatred by accepting those who are different. And let’s look for ways to settle differences that don’t involve bloodshed.
We want to give Mother Earth the balance that she craves.
