Thinking about India 🇮🇳 It’s own people and the stranded Aussies. I got a call at 4am from my friend I met there when I went to see the Dalai Lama. He said the situation is devastating. He said he’s seen over 100 people die each day. Half of the bodies are left dead 1/6
because people are either too scared to catch the virus or they cannot afford to cremate them. He said most of the paramedics are good. However, one paramedic just chucks each body on the ground once he realises the person is dead. My friend said one of these bodies 2/6
was the father of a 13 and 15 year old who watched the paramedic just dump their dead father next to the river. My friend helped the children and made sure their father was looked after in a dignified manner for their last moments together. 3/6
It takes approximately three hours to cremate a body and he said that’s all he’s been doing every day. Collecting bodies and cremating them: Helping the families who are scared to catch the virus or cannot afford to cremate their loved ones. Many lining up for hours. 4/6
He said to tell the world to wake up because he feels like it has lost it’s humanity. We talked about life, truth and love. I told him he is so brave and doing an incredible thing. He said he is happy he has been able to help others. 5/6
He has become friends with the police who provided him with full protective gear because they saw he was doing a wonderful thing. He was very happy to talk and very thankful to be able to share his story with you all in Australia. 6/6 ❤️

Why identity and privilege matter: Yesterday in Sydney Morning Herald Lakita Bourke (2021) wrote:“Prime Minister Scott Morrison says identity politics and the moral corrosion caused by the misuse of social media are forces seeking to undermine society.” 1/56 #Justice4Australia
“Mr Morrison made the remarks in a speech – in which he repeatedly referred to his Pentecostal faith – called “the responsibility of citizens in building community to achieve national success”. Morrison told an audience “as citizens, we cannot allow what we think we are 2/56
entitled to, to become more important than what we are responsible for.” So what is identity politics, how does it relate to entitlement and responsibility, and why does Morrison think it undermines society? Bisexual Muslim Poet @Omarjsakr (2017) commented for SBS: 3/56

Wisdom from Sadhguru: “People care for their own little pleasure more than for everyone’s wellbeing. That is what we have to change in the world. What does an unlimited amount of wealth mean to a man who has a limited amount of time. 1/34 #Justice4Australia
The fight against corruption has to start within you, as integrity is an inner quality. Integrity is not a bunch of values or ethics. Integrity is the coherence between how you are, how you think, and how you act. 2/34
There is no substitute for a conscious, responsible behavior. If you learn to use the tools of body, mind, emotions, and energy by choice, you will naturally become a very impactful human being. 3/34

What is #Justice4Australia? I joined Twitter to see if Trump would win or lose the US election. I had not watched the news or followed politics for years; too much, too soon had made me unwell: Psychosis. I saw Trump’s tweets and thought, ‘Is this guy for real!? 1/36
I had no clue then I would be thanking him now. Trump introduced me to the wonderful world of Twitter; incredibly talented minds constantly fact checking his tweets. Journalists, lawyers, doctors, psychologists, professors. Others with no qualifications equally impressive. 2/36
It was so refreshing to read quality responses, to see humour used to make people feel safe in a world seemingly, increasingly mad, and available to people all around the world for free. I did not know Tharnicaa and Kopika would bring me towards 3/36

Dalai Lama: “On Earth Day 2021, I appeal to my brothers and sisters throughout the world to look at both the challenges and the opportunities before us on this one blue planet that we share. I often joke that 1/10 #Justice4Australia
the moon and stars look beautiful, but if any of us tried to live on them, we would be miserable. This planet of ours is a delightful habitat. Its life is our life, its future our future. Indeed, earth acts like a mother to us all. Like children, we are dependent on her. 2/10
In the face of such global problems as effect of global heating and depletion of ozone layer, individual organizations and single nations are helpless. Unless we work together, no solution can be found. Our mother earth is teaching us a lesson in universal
responsibility. 3/10
