    I’ll say a few things.

    Spiritual or consciousness development is a lonely path. It is also an individual path. Finding a fellow ‘walker’ on that path is wonderful but does not last forever. You meet, you share and you walk on, and sometimes you make a friend that experiences in that moment similar to you.

    Everyone of us still have questions, sometimes burning questions, and sometimes those that we’ve learned to live with. They are there and for myself it is sometimes a joke .. God/Universe knows where I am and if I am to get a direction on a question, well, I am here. That part is a part of faith, but can also be a copout part.

    Concepts such as consciousness, soul, and such, are but our descriptions of how we are on our path. They are also individual and I dare say each one here has a different concept or a different experience. Dimi explained about sound and color. Mine, my sigil, my sign to pay attention for example, is a number. These methodologies exist because individually one finds a sensical way to communicate with a designer universe (if there is a designer universe – this is a personal view of the big scheme of things).

    So, there are basically three people talking here, and I, in a minimal manner, as I know this is a lonely path but I also know I get hints or someone may use a word that resonates or there is something.

    So, we are using words (soul, universe, consciousness, and ….) that we only understand personally. They may not be what the other person understands.

    We are using a scheme of understanding that is personal. Our own scheme is not necessarily the same for everyone, although the forms of understanding, the way of mining universal hints, can be developed.

    A personal wordset or dictionary, a personal scheme of ‘getting it’, resonance in different ways for different people, a personal education that may or may not make sense today, different areas and experiences on ‘the path’ — discussion becomes very difficult as we’re dealing with an erstwhile ‘Tower of Babble‘ – yes, spelling error is by design. The adult person will take on a massive personal responsibility toward self and other if these issues are even to be approached.

    So let me try and quickly make this practical. I suggested a book that for me held many aha! moments. I do not intend to teach this, although I know it fairly well, I am only intending to clarify my own thoughts at this time again because sure as God made Little Green Apples, it will flow and change. I will write it down, as I know the material. If someone gets something out of that, it does not mean that I am right, or someone else is right.

    It only means that for one fleeting second, we met one another on our paths and experienced a moment of clarity and consciousness with the same dictionary underlying our understanding. Those moments are precious.

    And for heaven’s sake, have some fun! Let me tell you an old African joke. How do you know that God has a sense of humor?

    Evidently he made a baboon!

    “Nina Byzantina: Check out this SPICY debate about Putin on @CarlZha’s podcast in which I participated   |media”

    Oh boy … Carl Zha is a very funny guy generally but is not a Russian historian – he is a China historian and is so good at it, that he leaves me mesmerized.  He is no slouch.  I think he wanted to destroy that agitpapa fellow all by himself, but decided to pit him against Nina Byzantina very deliberately.   She is bright as a button and knows Russian history backward.

    Nina destroyed that John Helmer wannabe.   She flattened him!    I liked it!  Now she wants to flatten him flatter than flat!

    Hi DestinationUnknown.

    I’ve been wanting to re-read that, but it takes time and energy. Let’s start like this. Whoever wants to study this, can independently look at everything and then I’ll pick up at the long introduction to Chapter I.

    It is slow reading – there is not a word out of place really, and if someone else can make a start with the Author’s foreword it will help my chronic problem of not enough time. I’ll pick up in a few days then with the start of Chapter I.

    Good enough?

    “Paraguay opens Israeli embassy in Jerusalem after moving it from Tel Aviv”

    Paraguay has been a poodle forever but too small and hopeless to be of any account.

    Right at the moment and in the last hours, from 9pm local time, an agreement was struck.

    The Syrian Arab Army is withdrawing from certain cities (Homs, for one).  It is non-violent.  Civilian lives are being saved.  The Takbeer is saying that civilians should continue going on with their normal lives, regardless of their sects and religions.  Syrian integrity is not being saved.  It looks like Erdogan prevailed on certain aspects.  Hama is another where the SAA is peacefully withdrawing.

    We will have to see the consequences.

    1. The Syrian Arab Army, with the assistance of the Russian Air Force, successfully eliminated 200 terrorists today in multiple operations targeting terrorist headquarters and gatherings in the countryside of Hama, Idlib, and Aleppo.
    2. The total number of terrorists killed by the Syrian Arab Army and the Syrian-Russian Air Force over the course of the week has risen to more than 3,000.
    3. Since the morning hours, Syrian and Russian warplanes and helicopters have been carrying out intensive strikes on terrorist gatherings, sites, and headquarters in Hama and Idlib.

    Syrian Ministry of Defense:

    The Syrian Armed Forces have carried out a qualitative operation towards Dar al-Kabira, Talbiseh, and Rastan in the northern countryside of Homs. The operation was conducted with cover from joint Syrian-Russian aircraft, artillery, missiles, and armored forces.

    During the operation, dozens of terrorists were eliminated amidst a state of panic and confusion within their ranks, leading to a mass flight of militants. Additionally, a large number of terrorist vehicles, equipment, and weapons were destroyed.

    1. Deir Ezzor Deployment
    • Sources from Al-Watan Online: Military and police units remain stationed in the city of Deir Ezzor, while SDF forces have begun deploying along the administrative borders with Homs and Iraq.
    • This deployment is based on an agreement between the Syrian Arab Army and the Kurd forces, ensuring continued coordination in these critical areas.
    2. Syrian Ministry of Defense: Reports of withdrawals by Syrian forces in the vicinity of Homs and its countryside are false.
    • The Ministry emphasizes that Syrian forces are fully prepared and remain on high alert to counter any potential terrorist attacks.

    3. Terrorist Propaganda
    • The Ministry of Defense refuted claims spread by media outlets affiliated with terrorist organizations about any Syrian troop withdrawal from Homs. These claims are described as part of psychological warfare tactics.

    4. Occupied Golan Developments
    • Walla News: In response to the evolving situation in Syria, the Israeli occupation army has summoned additional troops to reinforce its presence in the occupied Golan Heights.

    I think Zakharova said that it is a very long interview, specifically so that the Americans can understand.  Its not published yet.

    Tucker, why mess with the Russian relationship with China?  Pulling Russia back into the western sphere indeed – and for what?  This man is toxically Trump.

    President of Russia Vladimir Putin had a telephone conversation (http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/75747) with President of the Republic of Turkiye Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

    The Presidents had an in-depth discussion of the quickly escalating tensions in Syria.

    Vladimir Putin stressed the urgent need to stop radical groups’ terrorist aggression against the Syrian state and provide comprehensive assistance to the legitimate authorities’ efforts to restore stability and constitutional order across the country, including using Ankara’s capabilities in the region.

    In this context, the two Leaders spoke in favour of strengthening cooperation both bilaterally and within the framework of the Astana process. The key importance of further close coordination between Russia, Turkiye and Iran to normalise the situation in Syria was highlighted.

    🤝 The two countries’ Presidents will stay in touch to continue searching steps to de-escalate the crisis.

    A number of topical issues related to further development of mutually beneficial Russian-Turkish cooperation with an emphasis on trade, economic and energy components were also discussed.

    Thanks, Cronetoo, for keeping us up to date with Mamood! I’m so glad someone else is talking about the US ‘extra’ guarantees for Zion. I thought I was the only one who actually saw that.

    How on earth did that missile get into Gaza? I hope they get more!

    The tide is turning in Syria. Kevork says that Assad was in Moscow talking with Putin on last Friday and he says that it will be announced on Syrian TV verifiable.

    It was hardly reported that the SAA and the Russian Airforce were turning toward counter-offense when all hell broke loose and they shot up, bombed and missiled everything that moved and looked like a Rent-a-jihadi.

    Syrian Army Launches Intense Counter-Offensive with Resistance’s Support:

    A very intense counter-offensive is being reported by the Syrian Army and resistance forces, supported by Russian airstrikes targeting terrorist hideouts. These strikes have reportedly resulted in the killing of a large number of terrorists.

    It is now clear that several strategic retreats were made to draw terrorists into specific areas, enabling a concentrated operation aimed at eliminating both their forces and commanders.

    This operation is expected to last longer and intensify further in the coming days.

    Here is a hospital:

    Vanessa says: A doctor of the terrorist posted a video from the University Hospital in Aleppo City begging for help after the hospital was overwhelmed with dead and wounded HTS terrorists. https://t.me/VanessaBeeley/34183

    The information is becoming to come through cleanly. See and even with a source:
    “The Turkish government is determined to drag its economically deteriorating people into lost battles that it has no stake in.

    Although the collapse of the Turkish currency almost led the Turkish economy to the abyss, had it not been for the rise in the value of trade with Iraq, which mitigated the impact of that and was a lifeline for the ungrateful neighbor, Erdogan is still gambling with his political future, thinking that he will thus be part of the new Middle East that his secret ally Netanyahu preached.

    What everyone must understand, especially the Turkish regime and the Zionist entity, is that Syria will not be a dumping ground for your human waste again, and just as we contributed to repelling your plots against it yesterday, we are ready today with more determination and deeper faith.

    Abu Alaa Al-Walaei – Commander of the Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades”

    There is more news. A long list of solidly verifiable discussions that Assad had with allies and what they said. Syria has support. But it was a long day and that will wait for tomorrow.

    I did not expect the putsh in Georgia to grow legs and still continue – turning violent. It demonstrates the hysterics and desperation in western climes as nothing they can do actually works for them.

    Statement issued by the General Command of the Syrian Army and Armed Forces:

    • The General Command of the Army and Armed Forces confirms that the process of confronting the terrorist attack is proceeding with full success and determination, and the counterattack will soon be moved to reclaim all areas and liberate them from the filth of terrorism.

    • The armed terrorist organizations continue to broadcast fake news through all their platforms in the context of a coordinated media war aimed at influencing the morale of our people and our valiant army. Taking advantage of the recent field events that took place in the city of Aleppo and the focus of some international and Arab media outlets on transmitting all news regardless of its accuracy, these organizations have worked to broadcast a huge amount of fake news and rumors targeting a number of Syrian cities.

    • The General Command of the Army and Armed Forces calls on our people not to pay attention to these pages or believe the news contained on their false platforms.

    • Our valiant army was and will remain a strong and steadfast presence to perform its duty in defending the homeland and citizens against all forms of terrorism and its supporters.

    The city of Aleppo has not fallen. There is active fighting in the territory or the province of Aleppo.

    Initial reports confirm that a Russian airstrike targeted the headquarters of the terrorist organization Jabhat al-Nusra, where the organization’s leader, Abu Muhammad al-Julani, and senior Ukrainian and Turkish intelligence officers were present.

    And this is not bad from RT – https://www.rt.com/news/608469-assad-defeat-terrorists-syria/
    and
    https://www.rt.com/news/608454-syrian-military-response-aleppo/

    In this case, the Russian media has direct information from their two bases and Russian spokespeople, so, the Russian sites quickly got their steam up.

    The Iranian Embassy was attacked.

    The Russian Air Force’s intense bombing of the Idlib and Al-Bab axes has led to the killing of major terrorist ranks. There is a frustration seen in the terrorist Turkish media regarding the failure of capturing Hama routes.
    Hama City: https://t.me/VanessaBeeley/34174

    The Syrian Ministry of Defense has dismissed reports circulating on platforms affiliated with armed terrorist organizations, claiming their entry into northern Hama towns like Al-Suqaylabiyah, Hayalin, Muhardah, Al-Lataminah, Halfaya, Taybat Al-Imam, Ma’an, Soran, and Maar Shahour. These reports are false.

    Defense Forces Ready for Any Potential Attack

    The Ministry confirmed that Syrian armed forces have organized a reinforced defensive line and are fully prepared and ready to repel any potential attack. Syrian and Russian warplanes continue to target terrorist positions.

    Claims of Syrian Withdrawal Are Unfounded

    A military source emphasized that the claims of Syrian forces withdrawing from Hama are unfounded. Forces are stationed in the northern and eastern parts of Hama, ready to counter any potential assault. Damascus remains secure.

    False Narratives Spread by Terrorist Media

    The so-called Syrian Observatory and media platforms operated by terrorist groups in Idlib are the main spreaders of these deceptive narratives.

    Hama Governor, Kamal Barmo:

    • Government institutions and public facilities are operating normally in the Hama, and food rations and fuel are available.

    • Syrian army reinforcements have arrived in Hama, and what is being circulated about the entry of vehicles belonging to the “Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS)” militants is fake and false news, and we call on the people of Hama not to pay attention to the rumors.

    Kevork:

    🚨🇸🇾 Assad is in Damascus (not hiding in Russia)
    🚨🇸🇾 The city of Hama did not fall
    🚨🇸🇾 There is no coup in Damascus
