"The complexity of human interactions is so big, so independent, that our society wouldn’t function without norms, said study researcher Christian Ruff, an economics professor at the University of Zurich, in Switzerland. "Even though humans are very good at following norms, we're always tempted to break them. We need punishment threats to follow correctly," Ruff told LiveScience.

October 5, 2013 – ROMANIA — The Galati area experienced dozens of earthquakes up to a magnitude of 3.8 (last one just before writing this article). The quakes have an extremely shallow depth, have a relatively high shaking intensity and are causing a lot of damage in the villages near the epicenter areas (the epicenters have to be situated in an area of many kms and not in one location). Some people are not waiting for more earthquakes and left their houses due do the damage, fearing a collapse if further quakes would strike. Galati is a region with relatively low seismic activity and earthquake swarms like the current events are only known from the newspapers in other regions/countries (ER could trace some unconfirmed reports that a number of earthquakes occurred in March 1894). Residents and seismologists are very surprised and are trying to understand what is happening. Oil extraction and flooding where initially mentioned as  possible triggers but these reasons cannot explain why some other phenomenon like  a constant sound like “boiling water” (coming from the ground) and a strange water smell (like sulfur) is being noticed.

Aurora Borealis, or northern lights, was seen from multiple states in the U.S. on Oct. 2, lighting up the sky in a magnificent show.

The natural phenomenon was seen from Minnesota, Iowa, and Montana, among other states.

The following is a “response” or “follow-up” to Steve Beckow’s “Wayshowing and Vasanas”.

Vasana: A complex of traumatic memories that upset us, triggered by an event in the present that resembles one in the past. (1)

Throughout the past few days, the message has gradually sunk in that every bit of change we wish to see must first come from within. I’ve always known this on a mental level, though I haven’t quite applied it and I’ve instead been focused on helping galvanize the masses to Create outward change in our society.

That outward change is certainly important, but even more important is the inner-change we can each cultivate at this time. Take those things about yourself that you’d rather hide away from or keep away from others, and give them the most scrupulous examination you can.

Put them under the biggest mental microscope you can, and work through any issues that may hold you back from attaining a constant pure vibration.
