This is A Message from The Mother: She Told Me to Tell My Brotha & Sista She Loves You.
I am tired of politics and one way-partisan view of the world and life in general.
I don't wanna be right. I just wanna Peace in this world.
I am tired of NO statement. I Just Wanna Say YES.
As a Man, I turn my eyes to Women and their unique Love Vibes.
In this Issue Seven of TRIBAL REALITIES I am working on such theme.
In every civilization, in every culture, in every language, in every life...
there is nothing stronger then the Love of a Mother for Her Child.
And I think we all gotta start again from the top.
And proceed through our lil' lives.
With Love.

War Is Useless.

New Hopi Prayer

A HOPI ELDER SPEAKS:

"You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour, now you must go back and tell the people that this is THE HOUR. And there are things to be considered...

Where are you living?
What are you doing?
What are your relationships?
Are you in right relation?
Where is your water?
Know your garden.
It is time to speak your Truth.
Create your community.
Be good to each other.
And do not look outside yourself for the leader.

Then he clasped his hands together, smiled, and said, "This could be a good time! There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and
will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At this time
in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all, ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt. The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.

We are the ones we've been waiting for.

I am watching tv headlines, and I don't like what I see. And You?
The report below tells the story of daily living in Gaza.
How can we solve this situation?
Ali Abunimah in his book One Country, bravely proposes a solution.
Consider the following document The Gaza Strip: A Humanitarian Implosion

TRIBAL REALITIES presents...Free West Papua!

I am writing TR6...
I've recently produced a video called Free West Papua because I want to tell you the story of Papuans and their struggle for freedom against the illegal occupation of their land by Indonesian government and big business as RioTinto and BP.
Why am I telling all this to you?
Because Papuans struggle for their lives, their lands, their civilizations is our struggle to preserve our civilization, our culture, our traditions, our REAL economies against that global corpocracy of FAKE economy, predation and greed.
Industrialized civilization forced us to think we are disconnected from everything else. Cogito ergo sum, I think therefore I am. They tell us to expand our minds and live our lives in a Cartesian way i.e. separating body from mind, matter from energy, black from white.
But we know the world is much more complex that that.
Indeed, everything is connected to "everything else".
We Are All Related: Mitakuye Oyasin.
Indeed, I exist because I am related to.
Body is Mind is Soul. Matter is Energy. Black is White.
Each country has its own culture & traditions.
We gotta go back to our roots, our traditions, our millenary way of life.
It is time we skip Cartesian approaches, elevate Our-Selves to Supramental Knowledge,
establishing dense connections to THAT "everything else"

We gotta learn from Papuans: a civilization highly integrated with THAT "everything else". A civilization wiser than the industrialized world.
This is why I am supporting the Papuans.
Visit www.freewestpapua.org for more info: December 1st is West Papua Independence Day!
On December 1st I am Raising my Freedom Flag. How about you?

Stay Tribal, Stay Real!

But today there is something hysterical in the air...

I am trying to understand what's going on in this world.
Everything is confused.
Reflecting about the Mumbai terrorist attack,I keep askin My-Self:
who profits from all this?
I think about the old adage
"cui prodest scelus, is fecit"
i.e. "Done by the one who profits from it."
cioè "colui al quale il crimine porta vantaggi, egli l'ha compiuto".
Who profits from an India-Pakistan (nuclear)conflict?
Who gains from a civil war between Hindu & Muslim inside India?
Civil War,
Religious Conflicts...

" But today there is something hysterical in the air..."
I shivered, then a precise page(41-42) of Salman Rushdie masterpiece Midnight's Children,came to my mind.Rushdie effectively depicted the irrational and subhuman behaviour of a violently enraged crowd, moved by hate,prejudice & false assumptions.
I don't want this to happen again!

We gotta open up our eyes. Change our mind-sets. And fight terrorism. United.
Love You All,
Marco

We Are All Bharatiyas!

स्वस्तिर्मानुषेभ्यः svastirmānuṣebhyaḥ
LET GOODNESS PREVAIL AMONG ALL HUMAN BEINGS!


Bharat (India) is a State of Consciousness.
India gave me so many challenges and chances to learn about My-Self, unleash my full potential, expand my leadership and live a better life, everyday.
My training in Prasanthi Nilayam, under the guidance of my Guru,
Sathya Sai Baba,was hardwork, discipline & the willpower to persist.
It has been a turning point in my life.
Therefore I am thankful to Baba. Therefore I am thankful to Bharat.
In this time of threat, rage and sorrow, I am sending All My Love to Bharat.
And I wanna consider My-Self as a Bharatya.
How about You?


"Bharat" denotes the entire human family.
“When we refer to Bharat, the term is not related to any particular individual, country or circumstance. Although many different derivative meanings have been given to the term by different authorities, these are only their individual interpretations…

‘Bharathi’ denotes Goddess Saraswathi who is the Vaakdevata (Goddess of Speech). Hence every man born with the gift of speech is a Bharatiya. The name is not associated with any particular individual or country. The term ‘Bharatiya’ is applicable to the entire human family. "Bha" refers to the Principle represented by Divine Knowledge. "Self-knowledge" is "Bha." "Bharatiyas" are those who take delight in Self-knowledge. Hence everyone who shines by his own self luminous power is a Bharatiya.

Bharatiya (Indian) is one who acquired divine strength by Atmabalam (the power of the Spirit). So, whoever one may be, whatever one's country, he has to acquire this strength of the Spirit.”

Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba
23rd of November, 1990

TR4 --> MOTHER EARTH -->TERRA MADRE/SlowFood@TURIN 2008

In TRIBAL REALITIES ISSUE FOUR I raised controversial issues such as Bio-Piracy, Genetic Modified Organisms (GMOs), Terminator Seed techs (V-GURT), Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs) on life-forms and, through my artworks and excellent contributors I stated our Love for MOTHER EARTH...do u remember my massive Vandana Shiva quote?
In the end of October 2008 she was back to Italy to attend TERRA MADRE.
TERRA MADRE, organized every year by Slow Food in Torino (this is the ITALIA I like!) "brings together those players in the food chain who together support sustainable agriculture, fishing, and breeding with the goal of preserving taste and biodiversity".
Vandana Shiva participated in a panel where she discussed a new "Manifesto on Climate Change and the Future of Food Security". check it out...SHOW & PROVE YOUR TRIBAL REALITIES

Take a look at this article, too.
Plus, watch Vandana Shiva's interview (spanish/english)at TERRA MADRE 2008 (above).
Stay TRIBAL! Stay REAL!

Nel Numero Quattro di TR mi sono concentrato su argomenti controversi quali gli organismi geneticamente modificati (OGM), la tecnologia dei semi Terminator(V-GURT), il brevetto sulle forme di vita(TRIPs) e, in generale, la necessità di irradiare Amore verso Nostra Madre Terra. Vi ricordate la mia citazione di Vandana Shiva ? Bè, Lei è tornata in Italia, come vice-presidente di SlowFood per partecipare a TERRA MADRE (questa è l'ITALIA che me piace) e discutere il MANIFESTO SUL CAMBIAMENTO CLIMATICO E IL FUTURO DELLA SICUREZZA ALIMENTARE e firmate la petizione sul Futuro dei Semi!

Firmate le petizioni qui:

Staveti Bene : )

You can talk de talk but will you walk de walk?

Politician can u make the right decision for all of us?
You can talk de talk but will you walk de walk?

While I am meeting my contributors,receiving feedback & suggestions,writing/Beta-testing this issue 5, US elections are taking place and Italy is in the midst of political conflicts over key issues such as education, economy and democracy. Therefore it came out naturally to listen to this lovely tune from a fresh reggae band called Kora...they are from Aotearoa (New Zealand) and they're definitely dub...wise! Enjoy the video (above)!

Your Friendly Neighborhood,
