Day 2

The Mayan Calendar Ended on the 28th October 2011

The world ended on the 28th October 2011.

Actually the world as we know it ended. The world will never be the same again. In the past month, Desmond Tutu said that the new regime is worse than Apartheid. And ANC NEC member Fikile Xasa called for an end to corruption.

World wide Photovoltaic production doubled. We are already at parity with City of Cape Town electricity under certain circumstances, ie the price of buying electricity is the same as producing it yourself!

Every Day is a Bonus Day.

We are now in Day 2. Love Day 2. Embrace it. Nurture it.

A Jewish "Niggun" or rhym: "Return to the land, return to the land, return to the land of your soul. Return to the land, return to the land, return to the land of your soul. Return to who you are, return to what you are, return to where you were born and reborn again." This is not about going back. It is about finding out who you are, why you are here, and getting onto the path that God has given you. A Buddhist Meditation (called Meta): "May I be filled with loving kindness. May I be well. May I be peaceful and at ease. My I be happy." Replace I with we. Replace I with "my family." Replace I with "our world." etc.

We are in Day 2. Do we need to call it week 1 or month 1 or year 1? I don't think so. Let's just call it Day 2. If you want to name it, perhaps call it StarDate 2.

Maybe I'm nuts. Maybe I'm eccentric. But Genesis 1, 28 informs all our actions on Day 2 and every day henceforth: We should "go forth and multiply, and replenish the earth." We cannot simply take and take, but must consider how we can put back. We are also told that the "sins of the fathers will be on the children to the forth generation" (Deuteronomy 5, 9). Four generations are about 100 years. This sentence means that we should consider 100 years time in all our decision making. The warnings are in our most ancient teachings. It's about time we heeded them.

With all my love and support for us all,
David

PS: It's a beautiful day.

Repair Your World: Solving the electricity crisis at no tax cost to the treasury

My latest letter to the Cape Times editor. Melanie Gosling's articles this week and NERSA today (24th February 2010) approving 25% increases (95% over 3 years) refer. My company has a number of clients who wish to provide their own energy. We don't believe that we can rely on Eskom energy. It isn't sustainable. It isn't clean. Not only is coal polluting the air, mining it is polluting our water resources and destroying our roads. If we weren't in a recession Eskom energy wouldn't be enough for our requirements, so there is no true security of supply, especially as Eskom has not got the increase they wanted. Lastly, in the medium to long term, Eskom's energy is not affordable for our clients and there are already affordable alternatives. However, most of the clients we consult to are too small to fit into the 1 Megawatt bracket which gets the feed in tariff (REFIT). And the REFIT itself is a farce because the government has implemented a tender system w...

Mindfulness and Relaxation training using Tai Chi, Energy Work, Discussion, stretching, lower body strength, and other training, by David Lipschitz

I come to you if you're in Cape Town, and by special arrangement I travel further afield, usually for a day or longer of Tai Chi and Mindfulness. If you're prepared to have Tai Chi in a public place, then I can invite people at a lower rate and I give you part of their fee back as a rebate. You underwrite the class, and if it's only you, you have 100% of my time. Or we can still have class in a public place, with only you. I am an Ancient Wisdom expert, a scientist with two BSc degrees and an MBA. I've run my own software development and energy consulting business for 30 years, and I've learnt how to integrate healthy choices with a busy schedule. 22 May 2022: Note that with rising interest rates and cost of living, I have reduced my prices, and I pray that this helps you to do this amazing activity. https://www.superprof.co.za/tai-chi-instructor-cape-town-south-africa-with-years-experience.html The R500 reduced class fee is for up to 3 people in the same family or ...

South Africans can bring peace to the world

  Hi all. I have renamed this video and updated its description and settings to "South Africans can bring peace to the world." Most commentators on YouTube and here on Facebook are saying that there is no hope for South Africa. They are saying that the ANC represents everyone in South Africa. They are saying that South Africa's political landscape is changing to one where blacks vote for black parties, or various faiths vote for the own parties, or people from Natal vote for parties that represent them and people from the Cape vote for parties that represent them. This problem is short term! I came back to South Africa in 1995 as I believe(d) in the new South Africa. I left the old South Africa in 1987 because I didn't want to fight my coloured and black friends from the townships where I had been teaching for years, whilst at University. I live in South Africa as do so many people because we believe in the country and its people. We love its beauty. We love that Amaz...
