State Of The Human ~ November 2024

0.00 So welcome, this is Mother Sha-Riah, with Brad and Caroline, in Adelaide, South Australia.

(Adapted transcript)

For people that know us, we are happy to talk about many different things but our mandate is the Mother’s (Ancestral Medicine Women) from the very beginning, has always been about human evolution, human spiritual energetic evolution, which of course guides the physical, emotional and mental evolution of a human being. Whilst we are intensely interested in individuals, we aIso are of course, with working with those individuals as part we of a group, because the group,  the human group is what we are so passionate about and the human group and:

• their uniqueness
• their their ability to to think
• discerned and decide
• To invent and discover
• create and become to evolve to do all of that again and evolve some more

at an individual level and then as those individuals as those individuals do that the group is then nourished and nurtured and supported to also have that information, have that energetic and also evolved themselves.

1.30 We often say to people if you can do it in your group, your family and you will see a difference in that family in that group and then in that group. One person maybe affects maybe ten people and then these 10 people affect another 10 people, and so this is an exponential rise. It rises and rises and rises. The energetics of the major work, healing, transformation or change done by you might diminish slightly,  it might be diluted somewhat, but it’s the energy of that, the essence of that, and that’s what moves out. That’s the thing that can continue on. So for us the state of the human and the state of the human group is of infinite fascination for us.  It is our passion. Our love is in that, and as a part of that, we are also turning our vision to the natural world, because for us the human beings are a part of the natural world, and the natural world welcomes and supports and embraces the human group within that.

2.50 Many of the human group do not want that. So there is a chasm there, as many of the human group have moved away from that embrace, that opportunity for communion, that love, that combination of energies. They have moved away from that. They feel that by living in particular ways, small homes, on small you know pieces of land, and it enclosed in that space and going from that space to the workspace to the shop space, back to that home enclosed space, and then being surrounded all of the time by news information, media of various different levels and types, that this is this is the way to live, this is this is life, this is it.  And so they look at the natural world as something different to them and they have pulled themselves away. To be clear, this is the way that they are encouraged to live, not only perhaps wanting to live like that, but they’re actively encouraged to live like that. If you look at all of the social media, by design it draws you in, it doesn’t just show you one thing because then you you can just quickly and  easily move with your finger to the next thing and sometimes it moves for you, so you are completely drawn is into that,  and you lose yourself in that world.

4.24 We would suggest to you that there is a complete and utter lack of love and support in that world. There is a complete and utter lack of belonging and togetherness in the world of:

“in the small home, or the big home, and then into the car, into the workplace, into the car,  to the shop place, into the car, back to the home place.”

This idea of just being insular in this way, you can have friends and you might have family, but there is an ‘insularity’ about that world, and that keeps you out of the natural world.

5.23 We see time and time and time again, that people who turned to face the natural world just to begin with and start to look at it. In that looking at it, and the exploring of it, they feel some different energies within their life, they feel something that is a little bit freeing, a little bit more “what is that?”, it peaks the interest, it’s more creative, and then moving out into that space and becoming more connected with that space they feel that they can still live in this environment home-work-shop-home, but they find it’s not binding them.  All of these things are like your prison, but actually prison is too harsh a word, but they are really providing these boundaries, very distinct boundaries, that:

• “here we are this”
• “here we are that”
• and other there we are this”

Many people feel that they cannot be themselves. They don’t know who they are anymore because they are bound by these institutions of home, of work, of shop, of home, of work, of shop. Furthermore these many little institutions are part of a much larger institution, the societal institution. So you know this by allowing yourself, or inviting yourself to look out into the natural world and start to experience and explore that and bring that into your life a little bit more, people find that they are freer in their bounded environments. They are Free to think for themselves, they are Free to be themselves, to actually think;

“What is it that I WANT?

What is it that I think?

What is it that I can do? “

Then they start to Really understand what is the meaning of My Life? Meaning is the thing that motivates you, it’s the thing that makes your Life Really important to you, to others and the purpose is the action of doing that meaning.

So we say meaning not act not purpose, just to clarify that but both of those things work together.

7.35 We could say you couldn’t have purpose without meaning because you will be getting something out of that purpose, which is supporting and supplying the energy that is the meaning of your life, is the meaning of what you want, of who you are.

7.55 So the state of the human we see at the moment is not SAD, we wouldn’t say that, but we can see that it is locked somehow, and not everybody, we must absolutely be clear on this it’s not everybody, but the vast majority of people are being herded into small living environments and are being fed information through their media devices, tools, their television, their radios, their phones and computers. Constantly bombarded and there is never ever ever a break. You go to a shopping center where there is music playing. Whilst that’s not a bad thing, however, that music is designed to make you feel comfortable and want to stay there. The more that you stay there the more you can see all of the advertising and marketing of the things that you don’t actually want, but they are appealing to you for some reason, and then you get caught up in that cycle of buying things that you don’t want, buying things that are not well made, that are going to break and are going to go into the rubbish or passed on to you know charity shopping, and then  nobody wants it,  so it gets put into the rubbish, and then that adds to the landfill and that adds to the burden on the Earth, that adds to the degradation of the natural world. So further and further away Humans move from the natural world in these environments and it is up to the human being on an individual level and to take as many people with you as you can to turn around and look at the natural world and say:

“we are a part of each other, we breathe the same air,  drink the same water, you provide us with the food that we eat and we provide compost for that for the natural environment. We have the same needs and yet we are being pulled and pulled away from that.”

10.24 So our needs are actually becoming unknown to us, they are becoming unknown. Our needs are what we are being told are our needs are. You need to buy this from the shop, you need to have this kind of housing, you need to have this kind of car, you need to have this kind of education for this kind of job, you need to listen to this news, you need, your need, you need. Constantly the Human being is told what they need and they adopt it. So the Human being is getting to a point where They Don’t Know what they need because they are so and that because they’re so detached from the Natural aspect of themselves, and the Natural aspect of themselves is that communing and connecting with the Natural world, because the Natural world has as this innate part of them, they Know what they need to do. They Know that the tiny  seed that they come from, all of the information that they need to do what they need to do is in that seed, and they let that flow. They flow and become one with the soil or on top of the soil or under the leaves, they become one with that. They let the energy of the soil fill them. They accept the water, accept the Sun, all of those things, they take all of that. They work with that and then they grow, and they do what they need to do because they know what they need to do, they’ve never forgotten what they need to do, because they’re in an environment where I have a job to do, this is what I need to do and in this environment I’m relatively free to do it!

12.25 There are some environments where there is something that happens. there is drought, it’s too cold and these things are not common for this environment and so on. This means that the plant has to adapt, but they adapt knowing what they need to do. They adapt knowing what they need to do, and as a result of that they become more sustainable. They will rely on the Sun, the water, the shade of other trees or plants, they will rely on the soil and the animals and the fungi and all of that, so there is a system that they rely on, but that system is generally designed to support the whole system.

13.26 You will find that sometimes there are plants(weeds) and animals(pests/vermin) that come in, these are known as ‘destructors’. They will come and overgrow things and kill things, but you will Always Find that some Plants will survive within that, and as a result of that they become Stronger they become More adaptive. ‘They Know what they need to’, and that’s the bottom line, they Know what they need to do.

13.50 If you Want To be adaptive, if you Want To be resilient, and if you Want To Thrive, you have to Know what your Needs are. When you know what your needs are, you are less reliant on everything else that is telling you what your needs are. Those things that are telling you what your needs are, they will be satisfying their own needs, not your needs, they’ll be satisfying their own needs because they know what their needs are.

14.26 So the state of the human is this:

“The human being has been duped into believing that the needs that they are being told are their needs, they are believing these to be their actual needs. They are not.”

Said another way:

“Humans have been misled into thinking that the needs they’re told are their own, truly are. They’re mistaking these imposed needs for their unique personal and private real needs”.

The only way that you as a human being, as an individual human being can make strives for yourself and for others around you is to turn to nature, spend time there, really look at it and allow that energy that is within nature, with this ‘innate of knowing what their need is, knowing what their purpose is, allow that energy to fill you and start to really look at:

“What are my needs?”

Now these will be very superficial to begin with. When we say superficial of course these are requirements; I need to have a good diet, I have allergies so I need to make sure that I can have food that looks after that need, that might mean I need to grow food  “I need, I need, I need”, it will go on and on and on and on until you get to the point where you really understand what your needs are as a human being. Your needs might be that you need to have peace, that you need to feel free, that you need to feel love, that you need to love, that you need to feel joy, that you need to be joyous, that you need to experience yourself in the nakedness of yourself. There are many things that could possibly be your need, but once you know what that is then you start to design your life around those needs, and not the needs of what you’re being told through all of these institutions that we previously spoke about, but what your needs are, Then you start really to develop and understanding of yourself, and then you can start being yourself in any environment.

16.36 We urge you to consider yourself as a human being, a part of the natural world, and as a part of the natural world you have a job to do, to work with the natural world and allow the natural world to work with you. So there is a communing, there is a connecting, and there is a reciprocity occurring, so that there can be feeling things and actual adaptability, resilience and thriving.

17.18 The more human beings that can thrive, not as a result of thriving on the backs of other people, but thriving as an individual with this idea that their thriving is coming from within them, the more human beings that can do that, the more thriving obviously that can happen for others, “on their own terms – with their own needs!”

17.47 So the state of the human being at the moment is a little grim, but the one thing that we know about the human being is that the instinct for survival is enormous, and that instinct for survival brings people to the for, who are creative, inventive, who problem solve, who can critically think, and those people are average people. Average people, they are not necessarily the bright spark geniuses, because the bright spark geniuses often have great insights and knowledge but they can’t make it happen.

18.40  So we would urge you again to look to nature, look to the natural world, and accept your part in the natural world. Start to work with that. Find out what your needs are, and action those needs. Start to Build yourself up from the inside once again.

Many blessings to you all, thank you
