The Car Bazaar

This is cool. It’s a wonder someone in Australia hasn’t cogged in on this idea ( or maybe it’s just that we haven’t experienced so many versions of “boy shopping”!). Once again our guides are pointing us in the right direction. Kyale was supposed to drive us today, however issues with his car meant Innocent was our alternative ‘living yellow pages’. He told us about these events called Sunday car bazaars, which is basically a roped off paddock where private sellers pay a fee to bring their vehicle for the day.
Last night we discovers there was one being held locally near Karen. Denis had a call from a guy yesterday saying he would be taking his Isuzu Trooper there today- so off we trotted in search of this guy and his gold coloured trooper.

Well as it turned out, we didn’t find the guy that rang ( he is a bit if a mystery actually, even how he knew to ring Denis in the first place??), but we did find another gold Isuzu trooper, 1999 for 1 million Kenyan shillings, which was in impeccable condition. It was owned by a man from Kisii, who was the CEO of a coke a cola company in Kenya, but since retired.

So far this is the best value for money, it only requires a roof rack to be fitted and a service- which we discovered today Innocent can do. As well as drive cars/taxi, he is a mechanic for a garage locally. He can weld us up a roof rack, to our specification and service the car. How awesome is that! If Kyale had driven us today, we would not have discovered all these things. Being in the flow of harmony is so cool!
Plus it’s good to have seen as a comparison with the 1994 model Pastor Michael is going to show us this arvo.
************
We have just spent an hour or so talking with Pastor Michael which was just awesome! ( I’ve been hanging around Denis to long- awesome is the word of the day!)
Michael is from the Northern Masai Tribe. Before the colonial time, north and south were one tribe- until they were split and separated when the British arrived. Justus (southern masai) and Michael (northern) were very pleased to meet and share their mother tongue. It was beautiful to witness.

We explained to Michael the purpose for buying a vehicle- that we were invited by Javan, to come and share Divine Truth. Which is not religion, rather about connecting direct with God, no matter your background and growing in Love. He was so excited and please to hear that we had come to help his fellow brothers and sisters. He discussed his experience of 2007 elections at length, pausing often, closing his eyes and feeling the sadness this “dark time in Kenyan history” obviously still causes him.
We are unsure as to whether he still is a Pastor, as he spoke honestly about his disillusion that Christians have been anything but loving in this country and with his people- and 2007 was the confirmation of this for him. We chatted with him for sometime, and it was lovely. He is very keen to come and spend time with us on Tuesday and watch some Divine Truth material, so we will see how he responds after checking out the website.

He spoke of the inconsistency of Christians- their actions speaking louder than their words. And the boxes of confinement and separation Christianity has created in Kenya. He mentioned how in his villages and tribes they always had enough- no one went hungry. As everything was shared as a community. Since colonial time, and the imposition of christian ways, the focus shift to the individual, has created great lack for so many, and abundance for the few. And now even the land is ‘groaning’. He said, in the past, the village elders were an equal selection of men and women. Now it is only men that speak and make decisions.

We discussed many things, loving the land, spirits and guides, the importance of faith and prayer, all featured one way or another. We didn’t try to be anyone other than ourselves. We didn’t need to sprout of this and that- truth and love and God were all evident in our conversation. Such a joy, to just be real and say it how it is, for each of us. Just sharing from the heart- and of course it just flowed.

At the conclusion of our discussion he asked if we would come 400km north of Nairobi where he lives, to share with his people what we are learning about God and Love- Love of brothers, and of creation, just the same as we plan to with Javan.
We will need some extra helpers as desire keeps growing like this, so dive on in kids if your passion is blooming, and board a plane!

*****news flash******

Just in at 6pm, we have bought a car!!!! Thanks to the mystery caller, the Trooper at the bazaar is now part of the Divine Truth tool box! We met Moseti at his home, where he shared his story, we shared ours and with team PKD’s negotiation skills well executed, we came to an agreed price quite easily, which means we have enough to service, fit a roof rack, insure and transfer all in our 1 million Kenyan Shillings budget!!! Provided we can get a decent foreign exchange rate when we deposit the dosh, we are kicking goals!
We sign transfer papers tomorrow and the car which apparently is very well known in Kisii Town, will be returning home. We figure it has an inbuilt navigation system and already knows the way!!!

AWESOME DAY AY!
