THE MIRACLE OF MINDFULNESS

Feelings, whether of compassion or irritation, should be welcomed, recognized, and treated on an absolutely equal basis; because both are ourselves. The tangerine I am eating is me. The mustard greens I am planting are me. I plant with all my heart and mind. I clean this teapot with the kind of attention I would have were I giving the baby Buddha or Jesus a bath. Nothing should be treated more carefully than anything else. In mindfulness, compassion, irritation, mustard green plant, and teapot are all sacred.

- Thich Nhat Hanh

OF THE EARTH

Being a planetary citizen does not need space travel. It means being conscious that we are part of the universe and of the earth. The most fundamental law is to recognise that we share the planet with other beings, and that we have a duty to care for our common home.

THE POWER OF YOUR BRAIN

Manifestation and magnetic desire are useful for raising your awareness of what you want and focusing your attention on it, guiding your actions to make it happen. Patience and harmony will help ensure you stick with your goals and that they align with your deepest self. Finally, becoming aware of abundance and universal connection encourages you to think about your goals in the context of other people and the wider world; to consider your place in it and provide you with a powerful sense of purpose that will guide The Source, making you more resilient, compassionate and integrated in your thinking. This shift leads to an exponential increase in the consciousness of your own power.

SOUL MATES AND LIFE STORIES

People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you’ll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.

A soul mate’s purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...

THE WINGS WE ARE ALL GIVEN

You were born with potential.
You were born with goodness and trust. You were born with ideals and dreams. You were born with greatness.
You were born with wings.
You are not meant for crawling, so don’t.
You have wings.
Learn to use them and fly.

Liberatum Honours Chief Raoni in London: A Histori

Liberatum Honours Chief Raoni in London: A Historic Cultural Tribute to the Amazon’s Guardian

International cultural diplomacy organisation Liberatum honoured legendary Indigenous leader Chief Raoni Metuktire with the 13th Liberatum Cultural Honour at a landmark gala held at CÉ LA VI London.

The emotional and powerful tribute brought together global leaders from the arts, activism, politics, and philanthropy to celebrate the 93-year-old Kayapó chief’s lifelong fight to protect the Amazon and Indigenous rights. The evening was co-hosted by a distinguished line-up including Benedict Cumberbatch, Anitta, Bianca Jagger, Baroness Young of Hornsey, British Vogue’s Chioma Nnadi, Trudie Styler and Zac Goldsmith among others. Other notable guests included Julia Fox, Sir Anthony Gormley, Akala, and Dame Helena Kennedy KC.

Earlier that day, Chief Raoni was received at St James’s Palace for a private audience with His Majesty King Charles III, coinciding with the CBA Nature First Economy event — reaffirming his critical voice in the global environmental movement.

The Liberatum ceremony featured heartfelt tributes from co-hosts and supporters including Trudie Styler, Bianca Jagger, and Anitta, alongside moving video tributes showcasing the fragile beauty of the Amazon.

Representing the next generation of Kayapó leadership, Beptuk Metuktire delivered an emotional speech calling for continued international solidarity.

THE AMAZON: THE BREATH OF OUR EARTH AND THE POWER

THE AMAZON: THE BREATH OF OUR EARTH AND THE POWER OF INDIGENOUS CULTURE AND PEOPLE OF COLOUR 🌳

With deep reverence and boundless pride, Liberatum brought together a historic gathering — a convergence of ancestral wisdom, artistic fire, and global conscience.

In an extraordinary private audience with His Majesty King Charles, we united the legendary Chief Raoni Metuktire, along with Patxon Metuktire, Beptuk Metuktire, and Yabuti Metuktire of the Amazon — guardians of the forest and sacred protectors of our planet — with Brazil’s powerhouse and global icon Anitta, young Brazilian creative leader Lucas Vilas of Salvador, Bahia and Liberatum founder Pablo Ganguli from Kolkata, and other leading cultural voices.

This moment was more than a meeting — it was a call to history.

We came together to honour Chief Raoni, whose life has been a defiant and dignified cry for the Earth — a voice that echoes through the canopies of the Amazon and into the conscience of the world. His tireless struggle for the environment and the rights of Indigenous peoples is not just activism — it is heroism in its purest form.

Across continents, across languages, across generations, Indigenous leaders and people of colour are rising — united, urgent, and unafraid. Their voices carry truth. Their stories carry power. And their demands for justice cannot — and will not — be silenced.

This is more than a celebration.
This is a movement.
This is a reckoning.
This is the power of people of colour — unstoppable, undeniable, and essential to humanity’s survival.

“My mission has always been to protect the forest and defend my people. Since I was young, I have traveled the world carrying this message, and now, at 93 years old, I remain firmly on this path. This trip to London is part of that mission. I receive this honour with gratitude, but also with urgency. The Amazon is under threat, and my people need support to continue caring for our land. We are launching the Cacique Raoni Legacy Fund to ensure that this fight continues — even when I am no longer here. I invite all of you to join us. The time is now. Without the forest, there is no future.” — Cacique Raoni Metuktire

A Historic Tribute to the 93-Year-Old Kayapó Leader and Global Symbol of Amazon Protection.

Liberatum, the global cultural diplomacy organisation, is delighted to announce that 93-year-old Chief Raoni Metuktire, the revered indigenous leader of Brazil’s Kayapó people, will travel to the UK to be awarded the thirteenth Liberatum Cultural Honour during a momentous ceremony in London on 15 October 2025.

His recognition at the Liberatum event in London comes at a pivotal moment for the planet—just two weeks before COP30 in Brazil, at the very heart of the Amazon, where Chief Raoni will play a vital role.

“My mission has always been to protect the forest and defend my people. Since I was young, I have traveled the world carrying this message, and now, at 93 years old, I remain firmly on this path. This trip to London is part of that mission. I receive this honour with gratitude, but also with urgency. The Amazon is under threat, and my people need support to continue caring for our land. We are launching the Cacique Raoni Legacy Fund to ensure that this fight continues — even when I am no longer here. I invite all of you to join us. The time is now. Without the forest, there is no future.” — Cacique Raoni Metuktire

Anitta comments, “As a Brazilian, it is an honour for me to be part of such an important and unique moment for Chief Raoni. It is essential that more countries and global leaders align themselves with the preservation of the environment and the Indigenous peoples who are the true guardians of the forest. Recognizing Chief Raoni’s leadership is, in itself, a commitment to that cause.”

LIFE FLOWING THROUGH US If you cannot trust life

LIFE FLOWING THROUGH US

If you cannot trust life who are you going to trust? If you cannot allow life to flow through you, you will be missing this tremendous opportunity to be alive. Then you will get worried, then you will be caught in your own mind, and then misery is the natural outcome.

THIS GUEST HOUSE CALLED EARTH

This being human is a guest house. Every morning is a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor...Welcome and entertain them all. Treat each guest honorably. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond. - Rumi
