El 17 de Junio 2011 Viernes fue muy especial
hubo un concierto de charango excepcional
organizado por la Embajada de Bolivia
en el ISS Institute of Social Studies
el evento en si mismo fue magnifico
ademas un gesto intuitivo que salio muy bien:
estaba sentado en segunda fila y no queria que alguien me tapara
primero llegaron dos mujeres, una es la Embajadora de Cuba pero como
yo eso no lo sabia le dije que no se podia sentar y ella muy atenta
se sento en la silla de al lado, quedaron solo dos butacas en primera fila que iba a ser ocupadas por una pareja cuando le dije que estaban reservadas
la mujer sentada al lado mio dijo "si quieres guardar los lugares mejor pon mi abrigo" de esa manera estaban las cosas cuando el Embajador de Bolivia vino y saludo a la Embajadora de Cuba converso con ella unos momentos y luego dijo unas palabras dando la bienvenida a los artistas cuando termino busco adonde sentarse y miro a la Embajadora como preguntando si el abrigo era de ella inmediatamente la duenia del abrigo le dejo el asiento libre, es decir que yo habia reservado el asiento con un proposito valedero.
En la pausa nos sirvieron unos vinos y compre un CD de un Maestro del Charango que es un instrumento con origen en Potosi donde hice un trabajo para FAO en Junio de 1989 o sea que en esos dias estaba completando la mision dado que el 23 de Junio viaje a Buenos Aires.
Al comenzar la segunda parte los artistas agradecieron la presencia de la Embajadora de Cuba, cuando ella se levanto para agradecer le cantamos la gloriosa "Guantanamera!"
El concierto me brindo una excelente oportunidad de ir al Instituto donde celebre tambien otro aniversario importante, el 17 de Junio de 1976 Jueves cuando llegue al Instituto me informaron muy contentos que el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores me habia extendido el Fellowship por un anio para que consiguiera hacer el Master, hacia dos meses y medio que venia luchando por encontrar una solucion al hecho que al haber sido despedido del INTA por la intervencion impuesta por el golpe del 24 Marzo 1976 el gobierno de Holanda teoricamente no me podia extender el Fellowship; mi impresion es que lo podian haber hecho antes pero dieron vueltas a ver si el Instituto me conseguia una beca de otra fuente asi el Ministerio evitaba tener que hacer excepciones a las reglas; los del Instituto seguramente sabian que si aguantaban el Ministerio iba a ser flexible; en realidad la beca del Ministerio era mas conveniente para mi que las otras posibilidades asi que estuvo muy bien. Al dia siguiente 18 de Junio 1976 fue la graduacion del Diploma Programme que habia hecho desde Octubre de 195 a Junio 1976 asi que hace 35 anios que me entregaron el Diploma en una ceremonia que fue maravillosa para mi porque tenia la Fellowship que me permitia seguir estudiando y ademas permanecer en Holanda.
Dos aniversarios magnificos celebrados en el concierto de charango!

Divine Order 16 June 1976 today 16 .06.11 Thursday
I silently affirm, "Divine Order,"
as I hold thoughts of wholeness, harmony,
wisdom, abundance and peace.
With these divine ideas held firmly in mind,
I release the need for specific outcomes

The Torah and the Tree of Life - I found Prov. 3:18 on 7 June 2011 Tuesday
The Torah and the Tree of Life
Torah is also called the "Tree of Life," as it points us to God as He reveals Himself in the Sephirot, and thus His salvation. Going back to the time of Moses, God Himself states that His Torah is the way of "life."
Deuteronomy 30:6 - ...to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.
The third chapter of the book of Proverbs (a highly kabbalistic text), speaks of the Torah in terms of "Wisdom and Understanding" (the Sephirot of Hokhmah and Binah), calling it a "Tree of Life." The Torah is this "Tree of Life" that founded the earth and established the heavens:
Proverbs 3:13-19 - Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
A prayer recited when the Torah scrolls are placed back into the ark in a Synagogue service, is Etz Chayim He, "It is a Tree of Life:"
It is a tree of life to those who take hold of it, and those who support it are praiseworthy. Its ways are ways of pleasantness and all its paths are peace. Bring us back Lord to You, and we shall come, renew our days as of old.
The request, "Bring us back Lord to You," in the above prayer is a petition for teshuvah, commonly called "repentance," but more accurately defined as "return." As mentioned in our background studies, the path up the kabbalistic Tree of Life, is the path of return to God.

the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart
Deuteronomy 30:11-16a - For this commandment which I command you today is not too mysterious for you, nor is it far off. It is not in heaven, that you should say, "Who will ascend into heaven for us and bring it to us, that we may hear it and do it?' Nor is it beyond the sea, that you should say, "Who will go over the sea for us and bring it to us, that we may hear it and do it?' But the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may do it.

Salmo 91
Salmo 91
1 El que habita al abrigo del Altísimo
Morará bajo la sombra del Omnipotente.
2 Diré yo a Jehová: Esperanza mía, y castillo mío;
Mi Dios, en quien confiaré.
4 Con sus plumas te cubrirá,
Y debajo de sus alas estarás seguro;
Escudo y adarga es su verdad.
5 No temerás el terror nocturno,
Ni saeta que vuele de día,
7 Caerán a tu lado mil,
Y diez mil a tu diestra;
Mas a ti no llegará.
8 Ciertamente con tus ojos mirarás
Y verás la recompensa de los impíos.
9 Porque has puesto a Jehová, que es mi esperanza,
Al Altísimo por tu habitación,
10 No te sobrevendrá mal,
11 Pues a sus ángeles les encargará
Que te guarden en todos tus caminos.
12 En las manos te llevarán,
Para que tu pie no tropiece en piedra.
13 Sobre el león y el áspid pisarás;
Hollarás al cachorro del león y al dragón.
14 Por cuanto en mí ha puesto su amor, yo también lo libraré;
Le pondré en alto, por cuanto ha conocido mi nombre.
15 Me invocará, y yo le responderé;
Con él estaré yo en la angustia;
Lo libraré y le glorificaré.
16 Lo saciaré de larga vida,
Y le mostraré mi salvación.

Prov 3:18 El arbol de la vida
el dia 6.6.11 Lunes
vi el film The Tree of Life
el 07.06.11 Martes vispera de Shavuot fui a la Synagoga
el Rabino se refirio a la Torah como El Arbol de la Vida
al final del servicio le pregunte a una mujer cual era el motivo, ella explico que el libro de los Proverbios decia eso le pregunto a un hombre que estaba al lado si se acordaba en cual y el hombre dijo que ahi tenia una Biblia asi que lo buscaba, yo le decia que no se preocupe (el hombre estaba comiendo una porcion de torta y habia interrumpido para buscar el versiculo) el hombre encontro Prov 3:18 en menos de un minuto. Cuando termino la reunion le agradeci nuevamente y le pregunte como encontro tan rapido, resulto ser que hace poco el habia tenido que dar una charla no se sobre que tema y que habia usado el 3:18 como el punto central de su presentacion.
Prov 3:18
She (the Torah or Wisdom) is a tree of life to those who embrace her
and happy is every one that retains her.
Genesis 2:9
And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground
trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food.
In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and
the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
"The tree of life" which Adam was not to taste lies open to his children. Wisdom is the "tree of life," giving a true immortality. The symbol entered largely into the religious imagery. of Assyria, Egypt, and Persia. Philo, going a step further, found in the two trees the ideal representatives of speculative knowledge and moral wisdom; and the same image subserves a higher purpose in the promises and the visions of Revelation 2:7; Revelation 22:2.
Revelation 2:7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
Genesis 2:9 And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground--trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Power of God
I use God's power for good in my life and in the world.
The power of God is within me. It sustains, protects and expresses through all I think, say and do. The more I recognize and acknowledge the power of God, the more I use it with intention.
I align with God through my conscious awareness, and I experience a comfortable flow and order in my life. Stress subsides and stamina increases--I live more fully.
I use the power of God for good in my life. With each interaction, task or activity, I am a channel through which goodness flows. Reaching out to people with kindness and helpfulness, I let God's light shine in and through me to bless the world.
You are the God who works wonders; you have displayed your might among the peoples. --Psalm 77:14
