We are the whales.
We are asking you to listen. And because you are here, we know that you can and will.
Our plight belongs to you. What happens in the oceans happens to all. There is no you and us, there is no here or there. There is only the All.
The oceans are larger than the land. This is not a mistake, it is because this planet is crated from the oceans upward not from the land downward. It was decided long ago that we would watch humans from afar rather than letting you know all in one moment our relationship. We are the ancient ones, the wisdom keepers, those that keep the knowledge of this planet for all. We live in the oceans, correcting errors, healing wrongs, cleaning the debris you have left behind. Because you do not live here, you do not think of it as important or necessary. Again, this is our home, we live here and record all that is done. We ask you to consider: as above, so below.
When volcanos erupt, creating new islands above and below the ocean’s surface, we send waves of sound in all directions to let the creatures know that change is happening. What you do not realize, is that we send these vibrations to you also. When the earth moves and plates shift, we move all to safety that will come with us. Yes, we of the oceans are as affected as you of the land. When humans neglect the oil, the fossils of all our ancestors, to be spilled into the seas and oceans, we gather around these harmful secretions and surround it with sound waves to collect the oil into itself. We use sound waves the same way that you use nets, to collect and direct that which will harm our beings… all our beings. In this way, we protect our survival and that of those within and above the oceans.
Many have called us, “Angels of the Deep”. This in some ways is true. But no truer than you are Angels of the Land. As above, so below. What is true for us is also true for you… you have merely forgotten your true selves.
We are the creatures from the deep that have been on this planet for longer than you know. We have walked upon the earth, above the surface of the oceans, and we now swim beneath the surface in grace and good accord. We are many, yet we are diminishing in number. We weave the energy of the oceans just as the birds weave the energies of the skies. There is no mistake that we are here. We but ask that you wake up to our plight. To the plight of the oceans, to the plight of all those who depend upon the oceans to be life giving rather than life taking. Too much neglect and selfishness has happened and it is affecting our very existence; it will in turn, effect that of the humans and all land creatures and this leaves us with worry. Our plight is your plight; our demise is your demise. When we are no longer here, neither will you be; whether through our destruction by humans, or through planetary evolution. Either way, we are all one.
We are old. For so long, we have swum beneath the oceans and said little. We did not speak when so many of our kind were murdered because we were waiting for you, the humans, to remember our original agreements. You have not. Now is the time to speak to you who can listen. Will you listen? Will you tell your fellows or our troubles and our concerns? Grandfather whale is immense in his knowledge of what is happening on this planet. He sees this with illuminated eyes that see the phosphorescent energy lines beneath the surface. He sees this by listening to the calls of all the ocean creatures.
Where you hear with ears atop the surface, we hear with our ears, and our hearts beneath the seas. There is no difference, only that we have been listening to the calls of the many for oh so long. Our listening is linked through all our ancestors to all our future generations. For us, there is no beginning or no end. For you, you do not listen with any length of time, only with new ears and hearts that are confused.
It is critical at this moment for humans to remember their agreement with the creatures of this planet. You have forgotten. You have been forgetful. You have moved far away from the agreements of time and space. You agreements with the animals, those not of your breed, were to over see the planet that all would be protected and have long life. Our agreements were to provide you with what you would need, but ONLY with what you would need. You in your fear and greed, forgot what was and created instead, what you would have. From need you moved to only that which you would have. In your need to have, you have made our living together an abomination and created more struggle for yourselves. While all the earth’s creatures are in alignment with hearing your needs, they do not understand the greed of your wants.
There is no great difference between us…those of the oceans or those of the lands; those of the human race and those of the non-human race. All of us have ancestors, all of us have children, all of us have dreams. We dream you. Do you still dream us?
Open you hearts to dream once again. Allow yourselves to hear our song. Use your breath to clear the air. Use your minds to clear the land and the waters of our world, yours and ours. And remember that it is OUR World, yours and all those creatures that live upon it and beneath it. There was never an intent for separation, there should not be separation now.
The Whale Nation, through GrandFather Whale
A haunting truth beautifully and poignantly expressed by Grandfather Whale. As a species we modern humans are not alone on this earth yet our behavior towards other forms of life reflects a decidedly exclusive non-embrace of the others who share this beautiful planet with us. In these extreme times it is easy to get caught up in the “need to have” on so many levels which is the result of our blind overreaching capitalistic sense of entitlement at any cost. My sincere hope is that we begin to awaken to the deepest truth of who we all are–hidden and seen–and the reality of how far we have strayed from that truth. My hope for us all is that we become more responsive to, and aligned with, the agreements we have made however dimly remembered. Reaching out and tuning in through meditation, prayer, and/or affirmation are simple ways to begin that process of re-connection. Thank you Grandfather Whale for speaking the hard and beautiful truth.
Beautiful Rene.
Thank you so much for commenting. The way inward, through contemplative practices, is really the best way to understand ourselves, one another, and all beings.
