The World Health Organization treats the murder of an unborn child as a normal medical procedure, saying it is a "very safe procedure" if done in accordance with WHO guidelines.

One comment about the broadcast: It sounded like someone was playing a video game on the broadcast computer. To those that produce the broadcast please do refrain from using the broadcast computer for anything other than streaming. The random sound of mouse clicks or whatever it is ruins the video and hence distracts from what is being said.

Someone needs to logg out of messenger and facebook. Its horrible to listen too... or at least turn the sound of on that tab >.<

[windsorchan]

What about Covid in India and Africa? Did they provide accurate figures?

[bhagawanadhikari]

Surely again Corona will increase again in this coming winters season surely

Hence, no lockdown please. Let ppl meet, go out - may be not in larger groups but let them live their life. We are not the USA where ppl can still live their life. We are India which imposes the restrictions, make ppl's life hard, political parties fight for the crown taking ppl for granted. The Govt in Maharashtra which stepped down is still fighting the lost battle. We cannot expect a life without cribbing and chaos in public. We do not want to suffer again. We have left behind those 2 horrible years. It is researchers' at WHO / doctors' / governments' responsibility all around the world not to make ppl suffer again. It is DIY for you now. During COVID times, it was said that ppl have changed. They have internalized. COVID has taught us to be kinder. It is seen that COVID has not taught us anything. At least, that can be seen around. In fact, ppl are more nastier / harder now. There is no kindness / humanity at all. So, do not throw these non-sense theories. Ayurveda, please do not again start bashing Allopathy as usual. Their medicines, vaccines, surgeries really help. You also cannot find out the real reason hence do not bash others. 5000 years' ago people used Ayurveda as per their intelligence. They were intelligent, no doubt and those practice ayurveda also can be intelligent. But, stop bashing the most effective science which is allopathy. The medicines do not have side effect as spread by. They are properly tested, approved and then only are available for common ppl. Ppl take ayurvedic medicines also. Some of them are v good and useful. Let ppl decide. But stop saying that you are better than allopathy. You are also in the same category as them when detecting something. And allopathy medicines have no substitute when it comes to crunch situation. Hence, stop tomtoming yourself. Allopathy has never come in your way. They are the certified doctors while you are mostly behave like nutritionists.

WHO, what do you advise for someone who has taken 3 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine and got the COVID-19 infection about a year later. Does he need to take the 4th COVID-19 vaccine as he has been categorized as those required to take the 4th dose of the COVID-19 vaccine?

*WHO, THANK YOU ALL HEARTLY FOR THESE OPEN AND HONEST CONVERSATIONS. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSSIBLE FOR US, MEDICAL DOCTORS AND OTHER HEALTH COLABORATORS, IN COUNTRIES LIKE BRASIL DURING THIS PANDEMIA.*

[AutoConocimientodeTuPropioSer]

Spirits of Light, imprisoned in souls with bodies of dense matter, enslaved by a selfish God Creator of Worlds, mistreating, punishing, deceiver of peoples and nations, murderer of his own creation.

When the man begins to remember, he sends the vigilantes after him and destroys him, for fear of losing his status.

Only, the Spirit knows the True Father, because he is part of Him, and does not belong to this world.

That inimitable Divine Spark, that we carry in our deepest interior, that when she is released from his prison, reaches the Absolute Being, that Everything Is and Will Be.
