This is where the Japanese army formally surrendered during WWII.
Three months after the Alied forces landed on 9th September 1945, Major General George F. Wooten, commander of the Australian 9th Division presided and witnessed the formal signing of the letter of surrender by Lieutenant General Masao Baba, commander of the 37th Japanese Army.
In the ensuing two years until 1947, this area served as the headquarters for Australian 9th Division army and the command center for Allied forces in British Borneo.
It was also a detentioncenter investigation the heinous crimes and immoral conducts committed by the Japanese army during the war.
War tribunals were regulalrly held here to trial and execute Japanese army personnel suspected of war crimes.
The barque Eagle is a school ship for the future officers of the US Coast Guard. It was built in Germany in 1936 for the Kriegsmarine, already as a training ship. It surrendered to the British in April 1945, and was given to the USA as a war reparation. It was commissioned to the US Coast Guard in May 1946.
Its home port is New London, Connecticut (source : Wikipedia)
Lentamente muore
Lentamente muore chi diventa schiavo dell'abitudine, ripetendo ogni
giorno gli stessi percorsi, chi non cambia la marca, chi non
rischia e cambia colore dei vestiti, chi non parla a chi non conosce.
Muore lentamente chi evita una passione, chi preferisce il nero su
bianco e i puntini sulle "i" piuttosto che un insieme di emozioni,
proprio quelle che fanno brillare gli occhi, quelle che fanno di uno
sbadiglio un sorriso, quelle che fanno battere il cuore davanti
all'errore e ai sentimenti.
Lentamente muore chi non capovolge il tavolo, chi è infelice sul
lavoro, chi non rischia la certezza per l'incertezza, per inseguire un
sogno, chi non si permette almeno una volta nella vita di fuggire ai
consigli sensati. Lentamente muore chi non viaggia, chi non legge, chi
non ascolta musica, chi non trova grazia in se stesso. Muore lentamente
chi distrugge l'amor proprio, chi non si lascia aiutare; chi passa i
giorni a lamentarsi della propria sfortuna o della pioggia incessante.
Lentamente muore chi abbandona un progetto prima di iniziarlo, chi non
fa domande sugli argomenti che non conosce, chi non risponde quando gli
chiedono qualcosa che conosce.
Evitiamo la morte a piccole dosi, ricordando sempre che essere vivo
richiede uno sforzo di gran lunga maggiore del semplice fatto di
respirare.
Soltanto l'ardente pazienza porterà al raggiungimento di una splendida
felicità.
(P. Neruda)

Just before Christmas of the new Millennium, l was overwhelmed by a vision, a vision where Jesus had led me to an ancient temple. Crossing over a bridge, just before sunset, we crept up an expansive set of stairs. A guard on either side of the entrance prevented us from entering the temple.
Peering over the top stair in the fading light, l could see a square column with markings on it running from top to bottom. l wasn't able to identify the markings that evening, the vision ended.
For days l wondered what the vision meant.
In the days that followed l began to meditate, and piece by piece the symbols began to appear. The first one was months, while others were days. By the time the last one appeared, over a year had gone by. So now what l thought.
l needed to get the symbols out to other Reiki practitioners, my peers and begin using them. Thus far only a few do use them, while the others are less convinced of their authenticity or power.
For the past decade l've struggled with the Imitizu Reiki symbols and how to best get them out to the people that need them the most.
l have felt as if l had let Jesus down, unable to carry out this task and letting so much time slip by.
This past summer l had a chance meeting with a medium who was able to see and understand my quest. His excitement gave me new hope when he explained the time is now, with the final level of consciousness that we have just gone through.
l've reversed the order of the symbols, starting with the last one first, which you will understand in a short while.
Surrender is the forth Imitizu Reiki Symbol. Surrender is a simple but complex symbol. Until we first Surrender our will or ego and identify what it is we need to Surrender to, we will have difficulty moving forward. The Surrender symbol helps to let go of our will or ego and gently identify that which we hold on to. Change is a frightening emotion for many....fear of letting go. Change can only occur when we first surrender to something that no longer applies to our lives...
l humbly thank you, if you have read this far, and any questions can be directed to my email.
The Unconditional Surrender Statue is a representation of the Alfred Eisenstaedt photo taken of a sailor kissing a nurse after the announcement of V-J Day. The photo was published in Life Magazine in 1945.
This is a terrible picture, I will get a better one when I return to San Diego.
