Chapter 4 - God and the Devil.



      The man stepped back from the edge of the platform and began to smile. "The girl watching speech may have appeared shocking to you for also another reason," he said. "It may have appeared shocking for the simple reason that we, who were supposed to have been asleep as human beings, were woken up. Someone has dared to call us to attention. Yes, this is shocking, indeed, for someone who is obediently asleep."

      He took another step back.

      "There is an old story about a mule," he said, grinning now. "A man bought a mule. The seller had assured him that this mule was the finest of the lot. It would work for him tirelessly every day, all day long. So the man bought it and brought the mule to his farm. Low and behold, on the next morning the mule would not rise. No pulling or prodding would get the mule to move. In a range the purchaser went back to the seller, and the seller came to the man's farm with him, and sure enough, the mule would not move. The seller laughed, then searched through the barn and came back with a plank. He gave the mule a smack with it. The mule jumped up and was now ready to work. The seller laughed again and told the farmer that all that was needed, was a little waking up to get the mule's attention."

      "We all needed this girl watching shock," the man added. "We needed to be hit with a plank, so to speak. I can only hope that from this day forward we will all make a conscious effort to look at one-another with different eyes than in the past, and with more honesty, because this reprogramming of ourselves has the potential to be infinitely enriching from the Soul. On this platform, we also have the potential to change the world, to bring to life our constitution, our platform for uplifting the whole of society. Its focus should be on the general welfare of society, which has been long forgotten. This needs to be revived. Still, it must not be regarded as an end in itself, but as a starting point from which we work for humanity's larger and more profound self-development. We must see it as a constitution that we wish to develop, that we want to uplift into the sphere of universal love and universal sovereignty."



      With this said, the man motioned Tony. Tony nodded. Then both men stepped down from the platform together, under a second roar of applause. Their remarks became famous from that day on as the Girl Watching Constitutional Speech.



      It was the frail man's remark at the end that brought Antonovna to mind. I remembered that I had hoped right from the beginning she would have come, since Olive had lobbied for this conference with Antonovna in mind. Now that I knew that she was coming, I felt a bit sad, because I felt she would have loved Tony's speech, and the constitutional speech that was built thereon.

      I suggested to Sylvia that Anton's arrival was undoubtedly the result of the great overturning that had begun right from the start with her own bold initiative, when she ripped up the UN imposed agenda, without which Tony's speech would not have been possible. "The spirit of this liberation must have been felt at the far reaches of Russia and found a resonant chord there," I said to her. "Perhaps the spirit of our daring to be honest had been unfolding so strongly that it touched her heart and rekindled that dormant, distantly remembered fire when we stood together once at the leading edge in that almost forgotten epoch's fight for securing our world."
