THIS CHRISTMAS SEASON?


THE GREAT INVOCATION


From the point of Light within the Mind of God Let Light stream forth into the minds of men. Let Light descend on Earth.


From the point of Love within the Heart of God Let Love stream forth into the hearts of men. May Christ return to Earth.


From the centre where the Will of God is known Let purpose guide the little wills of men. The purpose which disciples know and serve.


From the centre which we call the race of men Let the Plan of Love and Light and work out. And may it seal the door where evil dwells.


Let Light and Love and Power Restore the Plan on Earth.


In building a more just, interdependent


and caring global society, what humanity needs above all, is more light, love and spiritual will.


Over the Christmas season people of goodwill from all parts of the world, and from diff erent religious and spiritual backgrounds unite in invoking these higher energies by using The Great Invocation.

The Great Invocation in your thoughts, your prayers or your meditations over 2013 Christmas season?

well over the line of the constitutionally-guaranteed right to politically free speech since the recommendations discussed appear to be seeking punishment for and sanctions against any individual or organisation that even talks about these issues.


TERMS OF REFERENCE (TOR)* They are only one page long and I urge everyone to read them carefully as it is chilling that any government body can even consider these sorts of restrictions to our basic and inalienable freedoms. China and Russia do not have legislation that makes freedom of speech illegal in regards to medical practices, research and debate yet the NSW Parliament don’t seem to see a problem with this. They describe information that is critical of


or would make others question mainstream medical treatments as being ‘false and misleading’ and therefore a punishable offence. The ToR state that people should not be allowed to give out information which could make people question accepted medical practice nor should anyone be allowed to discourage another from using medical therapies in favour of any natural treatments or other treatment. The ToR covers the powers the


HCCC currently has to cite and punish individuals they consider to be promoters of ‘false or misleading health-related information’ and how these powers can be used to take action against these individuals or organisations. Remember, this does not appear to be motivated by any harm to the public by natural therapies or any other treatments – as the Bain report in NZ showed, there is little to no harm being caused by natural therapies and a great deal by government-approved Western-medical practices. Instead, this committee is simply discussing how to stop people and organisations from being allowed to discuss health topics freely.


SUBMISSIONS TO THE COMMITTEE Submissions from the public are due by 13th of December. Whether you live in NSW or elsewhere, your submission could do an awful lot to show the NSW Parliament that people in the community support health rights, and oppose suppression. We cannot tell you what you should


say, nor are we allowed to share any submission with you (that is not allowed per the terms of this inquiry), but you can read submissions from an earlier HCCC enquiry* to give you an idea of


the format and types of information others have presented and to give you a head start in making your own contribution to this important debate. In addition, you can


download a document from the Parliament website* that will instruct you on the necessary procedures for submissions to Parliamentary committees.


WHY YOU SHOULD MAKE A SUBMISSION It will take all of us writing in to prevent this grave injustice from going forward. The intention of this inquiry is very clear – putting a stop to information which is not sanctioned by the current drug and allopathic medical model. If you are a non-medical health


practitioner, you need to make a submission soon, or you may face serious problems if you wish to practice in Australia. If your peak body (ATMS, ANTA, AHA, CAA, COCA, etc.) is not making submissions, you need to alert them to this dangerous situation. They can help protect your business, your livelihood and the rights of your patients. If you use any form of natural


therapies (and over two-thirds of the Australian populace does), then you must also be making a submission – it does not need to be long – giving the Committee* your opinion of these proposed new powers for the HCCC. - Contact your own Member of Parliament


in NSW* and ask them where they stand on freedom of speech and health rights. - Write to your local newspaper


(anywhere in the country) and ask when they will be doing a story on these efforts to penalise those who use and practise natural therapies. Let them know in no uncertain terms that you are expecting a balanced story too! - Call talkback radio programs and


tell them about this inquiry and ask them to let others know about it too. Do anything and everything you can to spread information about this inquiry and to stop these changes in legislation from going ahead. Because the truth is – if you don’t do


this today – you won’t have the right to do it tomorrow. * Contact details for the Committee can be found in the online version of this article at www.livingnow.com.au – search articles with any key words from this article. All other links are also to be found there.
