Abundant Loving Spirit...Changing the World Together!!!

Thank You, Ilie

[folotheflo]

thanks Ilie, i wish i was there. this kind of thing really touches my heart. sometimes it only takes one person who feels it, and can express it, to open the door for others. awesome !

[Ilie Pandia]

Hi, Thanks for the replies so far :)

I just want to point out that what you see in the video is not only possible but is "contagious". It fills your heart with joy and and even if just for an hour, you will see the world in a different way.

I'd also like to remind you that we do not eat money, nor use money directly for anything! The resources that we use money for, did not disappear :). So meditate on that for a while and all kinds of useful ideas might pop up.

Absolutely fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

[ViralSpiral]

That was unbelievably moving. Have watched it twice

THANK YOU!!

Hoppa!

[Halvorsen]

Watching this raised the hairs on my head, thanks;-)

[John Parslow]

Hello Ilie

Thank you so much for this video for some reason it brought me to tears - and made me remember all the lovely Greeks I have met on holidays in the past.

Once again my grateful thanks. JP :cool:

[Russ1959]

Wow! that brought a tear to my eye! Wonderful human spirit in a time of severe economic recession!

[Lisab]

That was just 'wow'. Thankyou Ilie.

[spiritguide]

Thank you, truely the spirit of the Spirit.... mutual respect and harmony.

[transiten]

OMG!

I just burst into tears! And laughter watching these guys rushing in to sweep the plates away! Greece a Virgo country! Second time today i watch a video with music that made me cry. Did you guys know that Amazing Grace was written by a slave trader, John Newton whose ship over to America full with slaves was theatened by a violent storm. He then fell on his knees and prayed to God to have mercy upon them. The ship was "saved", he repented and as a priest he wrote many hymns among them Amazing Grace...

...something for "The cabal" to consider?

[westhill]

Great video!!!! But what does the breaking of the plates represent? Well I looked up on the web...
Money to burn, plates to smash
Breaking plates is also an act which implies abundance - "We have so many plates we can break them!" - similar to lighting a fire with a piece of paper money.
Ooppah! to abun-dance!!

[lake]

Thank you for that.

There is a natural beauty and want to act and be one in humans which is of the divine.
This is not to follow another, but to be joined again, act as one, but this can only be in love.
No money, nothing of the material plane, just one in love.

They even show a representation of the destruction of material possessions which has always been a part of this very old culture.

Loved it :o

westhill: wouldn't trust the web so much my friend

[Limor Wolf]

While going to my cupboard kitchen to look for my aunt's plates... :)

This reminds me :

Enjoy!

[vibrations]

Wow Illia, it's fantastic. Until you can not see this people you just don't know how happy faces looks like.
In Britain you have about 90% of people walking pass you with a depressive concerned faces and a lot of weight above them, but traveling you just see the difference. In Croatia, Bulgaria, Greece, (I wasn't visit Romania yet, but I will, I promise) there are so many people who just live their lives in a positive way, don't f....ing care for the government and all sorts of crap, they look to each others eyes and you will find sincere smile almost at any moment.

Music sure has a way of doing that...

[dima]

hehehe!
we go out and dance but not that way and unfortunately less these days..
it's a nice video though! Romantic I would say!
Looks like it's somewhere in Canada.
thanks!

And if you want to understand more of this culture watch this http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086182/
The best movie so far about the history of this music.
love

[christian]

This is almost to cool to be true. :cool:

I don't understand, why they smash the plates, though.

The music kind of reminds me of this clip:

What?? You mean it's fake?

OK, made me look for other recordings of Mikis Theodorakis and decided to take up 2 of his songs at a church concert i'm giving. Don't know the titles in English but one is about Future and Hope "Almondtrees and Marble" in Swedish and the other "A song of Freedom" about buidling a world where we can really LIVE...

So GREAT if pple are dancing Greek dances in Canada, i've been dancing this dance in Gothenburg Sweden:thumb:

Listen to Sotiria Bellou queen of rembetiko!

hehe
Didn't you see all this video editing, and false music?
It doesn't matter, only your feelings watching it matter..

Well, for me the queen is Marika Ninou..

I am also a byzantine music teacher, so this music really touches me, since it has evolved from byzantine music.
Now Mikis Theodorakis and Sotiria Bellou are just the start of your searching I guess..
If you want any info you know where you can find me. ;-)

[transiten]

Thanks and yes dima, the false music i actually noticed but thought the rest was authentic....By the way i've been working as a music teacher also but most as a singer/performer. There's a great Greek singer in Sweden, Maria Stellas singing with a "World music" orchestra..

That's really the "Greek blues"... but that fiddle player didn't seem very authentic either...

Remember when i visited the Greek Archipelago in the 70:ies and tried to find some authentic Greek folk music, but nope. The only folkmusic i came across was Swedish as i played fiddle in the street one day and a guy i recognized from Sweden came up to me...and he had his fiddle also!!! so we played Swedish folkmusic on that Greek island....

Well some newly written rembetico would perhaps suite the crisis better....

Yep... Toronto, Danforth street festival... good food too!

[Robert J. Niewiadomski]

And orange shirts Zorba Sweepers are from Ottawa ;)
Great music and people!

[Ilie Pandia]

I've been to Greece, in Corfu. While I understand that most of it was a "show for us tourists", I still think that the Greek people are joyful and able to enjoy life better than anyone I've seen :)

[New Dawn]

the was realliy something amazingly special to watch. Thank you for sharing!

[TelosianEmbrace]

I can see this happening in all the countries of the world once the Illuminati lose power. Spontaneous expressions of joy, hope, and togetherness, with daily routine coming second. We are entering into a truly delightful phase in human history.

In Canada, many people live in cultural pockets...so there's a greek area; a chinese area; east indian; italian etc etc. There's a Greek festival every year in Vancouver which is very popular.

[Morgaine]

I love it!!!!

[Mad Hatter]

Just seems I am not the only one that the film 'Zorba the Greek' struck a chord with all those years ago... when everything else had literally colapsed the divine human spirit proceeded to dance in a manner which epitomised the idea "so what, all is not lost since tommorrow is another day".

Thank you Illie I will now dig that movie up for the benefit of my kids. ;)

[ktlight]

Totally wonderful. ABSOLUTE JOY! My heart leapt and sang.

[Corncrake]

I loved that and it doesn't matter where it took place - well maybe to the Canadians it does! It illustrates perfectly a talk I went to last night on Lynne McTaggert's The Bond which is on 'connecting through the space between us.

Many many years ago I remember enjoying the film Zorba the Greek and going to a certain Greek Restaurant in Soho where the ritual of breaking plates was carried out every evening - wonder how many plates were broken over the years!

Thanks Ille.

[transiten]

Yes! Zorba and all the other wonderful songs by Mikis Theodorakis! Time to start singing them again. I have to correct myself although i don't think anyone noticed. The song about creating a world where we can truly LIVE is a "Song of Freedom". Actually found a video from 2010 where finnsih singer Arja Saijonmaa living in Sweden and who's been touring with Mikis sings this song in an outdoor concert in Greece.

Have to start rehearsing. "We've got a future where almond trees are blooming" and "The green waves of hope are rolling"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZlESqoe-0M&feature=player_detailpage

"So build a world, a world to live in, it's a question of your own life and death" (there are of course english translations) These are the words Arja finally sings in Swedish.

And dima, what is she saying in the beginning? Since pple are laughing..Emena..Qu'est-ce que ca veut dire? Can't find the cedilj for the "c"

[aranuk]

He he and "Nej" or "Nä" is "No" in Swedsih, remeber it was very confusing in the beginning also when Greek pple did shake their heads when saying "Yes" Ochi? and nodding when they said Ne...In Sweden it's the other way around.
