The problem is that we think earth is heating [unwinding]. The reality is
that it is heating and cooling and both these forces are peaking and
falling in accelerated manner – we can expect great fire/wind bound
destruction by unwinding force, We can also expect huge flash floods and
snows. The winding force would create chains of earth quakes and volcanic
eruption – this is predicted and is happening – we can survive provided we
awaken to the principle and design on which earth functions to sustain its
temperature. We need to manage energy of the environment. It is matter of
world awakening to truth
