Surviving a Tornado |

On April 13th 2006 at 11.30pm Carl received an emergency phone call from his landlord to say that the house where his apartment was located in, had been hit by a tornado. When Carl arrived home he could instantly tell that the house had shifted slightly on its foundations. The windows in the building were shattered and the surrounding trees were torn up. Even the blinds looked like strands of spaghetti. Inside the apartments , the contents of the rooms looked like they had been through a blender. The furniture was scrambled where the tornado had ripped through the building.
When Carl got to his apartment in the house, the windows were blown out and the blinds were a tangled snarl. His Maitreya Solar Cross, which had been hanging from the ceiling had fallen to the floor but there was no damage to the form. It just needed a dusting to look as good as new. There was virtually no other damage done to Carl's apartment in spite of that fact that all the other apartments in the house looked as though they had been ransacked. Carl had had two delicate clear crystal bowls sitting right in front of the blown out windows and they survived intact without a scratch. There was a statue of the Buddha which also remained untouched by the tornado. All of his knick knacks, crystals and Metatronic forms which had been on a shelf remained untouched by the tornado, even his Christ Consciousness vajra which had been tossed to the floor had no damage.
The only item that got damaged was a statue of Archangel Michael, his wing had snapped off but even this was a clean break that was easily mended with glue. Compared to all the other tenants in the building the water and wind damage done to his apartment was negligible. In fact there was so little damage done to Carl's property that he did not even make an insurance claim. That night Carl stayed up with the landlord's son to keep an eye on the property, and he was offered a new apartment to move into that very next day. Again , the other tenants of the building had been left scrambling to find temporary accommodation and their lives were very much inconvenienced for a long time after the tornado. Incredibly, Carl did not have any of this to put up with. He feels that he was protected and taken care of that night. Carl said later "His Holiness and His tools were very much on my mind during that experience. Mostly in wonderment.. . Thank You."
