SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice.

Well, it is quite an interesting sight today. Here we have the Los Angeles landfill … or one of, probably, several, I’ll bet …

… and here we have the native oak trees that the landfill planted as kind of a bargain it agreed to …

…  making a heck of a lot of noise, upsetting me, and upsetting the ethers here, and bothering the nature spirits. And I was getting kind of provoked about the whole thing, but then I realized that things get a lot quieter at night here, and so, nature can refurbish itself; can renew itself.

And just on the other side, over this way …

… there’s a firing range for humans. And so I hear the pop! pop! pop! of the guns being fired and prepared for who-know-what people will say, or so that people will feel safe.

…  having already gone up in altitude quite a bit, through all the din and commotion. And I have a thought for you: This is just a question:

Why Do Guns Make Us Feel Safe?

And the question is: Why is it that we humans feel that we’re safer when we kill? Why is that?

Because, when we think about it, killing immediately brings back on us the karma of being killed. So how could that misunderstanding have come about?

For instance, over here in front of me, there are people practicing with guns, so that they can feel safe.

Well, just something to think about …

In love, light and joy,
