Celia thanks as ever for your powerfully brilliant lens of life and death, and of other ethereal energies impossible to describe. You are a mirror reflecting how human consciousness must now transcend (and seems now actually to be doing) via humility, courage and selfless compassion.
When I see stories of such abuse (which in my humble opinion and experience are far beyond a single person's evil - they are borne of deeply cultural and societal reasons, rooted in ancient wisdoms, lost over millennia) I find best explanations in Tolstoy's novella the Kreutzer Sonata (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kreutzer_Sonata), and in the extraordinary 1978 book The Wise Wound by Penelope Shuttle and Peter Redgrove (http://www.marionboyars.co.uk/Amy%20individual%20book%20info/WiseWound.html) - "A groundbreaking study of the facts, fantasies and taboos surrounding menstruation, The Wise Wound has helped bring about a profound shift in women's attitudes towards a natural phenomenon that has been despised and denigrated for centuries. The Wise Wound explores the historical and cultural legacy of this repression, from its effects on the way medicine treats women to the displaced appearance of menstrual imagery at all levels of our culture."
We are merely vibrations and frequencies IMHO, and there are much higher intelligences than our own conditioned beliefs and what we believe to be 'real', all very thankfully indeed.
May I humbly recommend the late Micheal Talbot's book, "The Holographic Universe." And also Dr. Donald Hoffman work. The universe is not what it appears to be.
Thank you for the nostalgia trip Celia💗… I was a gymnast at the same time Olga was in her ascendancy…. She was our hero! I remember the Russian gymnastics team came to NZ circa 1974…. My father took myself and a friend to Auckland to see them.
Celia, I remember both of them growing up! They’re amazing athletes, especially at such a young age. I remember when the Olympics in the 70’s was such a big deal!
I think letting a child train for anything at that intensity is child abuse jointly committed by the parents, the state and the coaches. For what - a bunch of medals. Did she really change the sport for the better?
Thank you for taking me back to the Olympic stars of earlier times. I love the ice skaters the best. There's no point in naming them, as many of us have our favorites. They are all fabulous to watch.
I did watch a video of Olga, and found myself a tad disappointed with the current Americans. They are all extraordinary athletes!
Sam, I spend a lot of time, maybe I "waste" time, but I go through a lot before I find what I really want to post/share. I am having all kinds of thoughts about Olga...
Hi Tina! I'm going through a crisis possibly triggered by this possibly not. Reading reading reading about Olga and feeling repressed rage which is called "anhedonia."
I was curious about the date of the film, which I did not see at the beginning or end. Checking IMDb, it looks like March 2000. Per Wikipedia, Knysh passed in 2019.
Celia, this is a very gracious way of avoiding the Paris psyop festival that substitutes the olympics.
Thank you!

Tom thank you. I'll certainly explore your recommendations. Hugely appreciated.

They were amazing - such inspiration.

I wish we could have the athleticism
of that time the focus now instead of gender identity
I recall ABC's 'Wild World of Sports'with ELO's 'Fire on High' theme music and Olga and Nadia and Jim McKay...
Knowing there was cruelty involved ruins the entire enterprise for me. I wouldn't wish a gold medal on anyone.
Even when I was little, I could see it wasn't the individual (be it a gymnast, or whatever) who wanted medals, but the USSR.
I'm not sure what is 'wanted,' but there are actors in Venezuela who'll hang whoever appears to have foiled it.
thank you! very interesting, also sad. Back then I always loved the Olympics. Olga was magnificent.

Thanks, Celia. This was special to see.

Absolutely fascinating. I was 7 in 72 and remember her very much! But Celia, how do you zero in on these so, so interesting things?
Sam, I spend a lot of time, maybe I "waste" time, but I go through a lot before I find what I really want to post/share. I am having all kinds of thoughts about Olga...
Interesting... I keep thinking about Olga now, I remember it all so well. Thanks for taking the time to reply to me :-)
Thank you for sharing this!
The video is not available.
It said the same for me … not available.
Anyway have a different link?
Celia Farber .... You are a bloody mind reader! I was about to do an article on Olga ..... Literally 😊
Hi Tina! I'm going through a crisis possibly triggered by this possibly not. Reading reading reading about Olga and feeling repressed rage which is called "anhedonia."
Keep going. Ride & conquer that wave! Take breaks when they're needed. But whip it's ass 😊
Wonderful. Co-incidental! Not a coincidence, as we know that does not exist!
