How to share your heart – and history - with those you love

What’s the difference between an inheritance and a legacy? Dr Melodie de Jager explores fostering our connection with those we cherish while we’re very much alive, since we actively grow our legacy every day.

The Voice by Shel Silverstein.

When the Chinese decided to live in peace, they built the great Wall of China. They thought that no one could climb it because of its height...

However, in the 100 years after its construction, the Chinese were invaded 3 times more.

Enemy infantry soldiers never had the need to climb or pe*****te the wall.

Because they always bribed the guards and got in through the gates.

The Chinese had built high and thick walls; But they couldn't build the characters of the wall guards.

As a result, building human character is different and important...

It precedes the construction of everything else.

This is what the new generation needs today.

As an orientalist said; “If you want to destroy the civilization of a nation, there are three ways;

* Destroy the family structure.

* Destroy the education system.

* Belittle and demean their role models and references.”

To destroy the family; Belittle and degrade motherhood.

To destroy the education system; Do not give importance to educators and teachers and lower their reputation in society so that their students will despise and belittle them.

Belittle the reputation of role models.

Work insidiously to destroy scholars and scientists, so that they are suspected and no one listens to them or follows them...

When the conscious mother is lost, dedicated teachers are lost and role models are discredited.

Who will teach HUMAN VALUES to young people... ??

CONVERSATIONS IN THE WOMB

In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the other: “Do you believe in life after delivery?”The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.”

“Nonsense,” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?”
The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.”

The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.”

The second insisted, “Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.”

The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover, if there is life, then why has no one ever come back from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery, there is nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.”

“Well, I don’t know,” said the second, “but certainly we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.”
The first replied “Mother? You actually believe in Mother? That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?”

The second said, “She is all around us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her, this world would not and could not exist.”

Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.”

To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.”

Maybe this was one of the best explanations of the concept of GOD.
– this lovely parable is from Your Sacred Self by Dr. Wayne Dyer 🙏

Wat 'n wonderlike tyd is dit nie.

Advanced Mind Moves Instructor Conference 2023

Our Advanced Mind Moves Instructors from all over Southern Africa are meeting this weekend to deepen our understanding and knowledge while celebrating the wonder of a learning child.

Our first presentation took a scientific look at the senses’ ability to convert vibration into electrical impulses. Any difficulty with this conversion leaves a child feeling bewildered, ‘sensory’, with poor concentration and a lack of impulse control.
Who can learn if the brain doesn’t receive solid input?

These videos give you a glimpse into the miraculous conversion of vibrational waves into electrical impulses to thought.
Vision: https://www.amnh.org/explore/ology/brain/seeing-color
Hearing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkGOGzpbrCk

We look forward to another day of learning how to PLAYFULLY facilitate the conversion process while bringing our children closer to nature.
