Workers Prepare to Enter Fukushima Reactor as Radiation Level Falls

Tokyo's main electric power company is preparing to send workers inside a crippled nuclear reactor to begin rebuilding the unit's cooling system. Power company officials say a ventilation system has lowered radiation levels in the reactor building damaged in March by a massive earthquake and tsunami.

The Tokyo Electric Power company is to open the doors on the Fukushima Daiichi Reactor 1 containment vessel, the thick concrete shell around the reactor core.

Its air has been so radioactive, a worker could be exposed only five hours before exceeding a safe limit. But an air filtration system installed Thursday has brought radiation down to a high, but more acceptable, level.

Workers are scheduled to enter it as early as Monday.

And:

In a related matter, Tokyo Electric reported a sharp rise in temperature at the nearby Reactor 3. It was at 202 degrees Celcius early  Sunday, up 40 degrees in less than a day, but still less than the normal operating temperature. Tokyo Electric plans to monitor the reactor closely.

How many days can the reactor temperature rise 40 degree Celcius and still be considered safe?

Yeah..  They're not gonna do that..  Japan lawmaker: Move parliament to Fukushima

CURRENT SECOND MASSIVE nuclear Reactor EXPLOSION JAPAN Fukushima 1 年3月14日 March 14th  I had not seen this footage before.

Wow..  Leaked Japanese religious document: "Radiation is a priceless spiritual gift."  Found it on Godlike Productions.  Excerpts:

The basic rhetorical tact is to demonstrate to the layman the fact that radiation gives rise to a conjunction of extremely powerful spiritual opportunities. The layman will ideally see resonances with familiar Buddhist concepts such as calm surrender to the inevitable, understanding birth and death as illusory, embracing the ultimate provisional nature of self, and so on.

As will soon become apparent, most people will be unable to leave Tokyo after the aquifer information is released next week. Your behavior as a holder of our lineage seal will be instrumental not only in helping laymen prepare themselves spiritually for this difficult reality,  but also to assist the authorities and His Majesty the Emperor in securing a  calm and orderly national polity. To this end, full cooperation with Shinto officials as well as Buddhist monks from other lineages is also necessary and this assumed. This will be the most difficult challenge of your religious career. Please exert your utmost efforts for the sake of national calm and order.
..
Radiation is a form of extremely high-frequency vibration, containing massive amounts of energy. The layman can be led to understand that, as ultimately there is no separation between the spiritual and the physical, confronting radiation is a chance to confront and work with a form of vibration that contains more energy and power than the more familiar oscillations of daily life (night-day, winter-summer, happiness-sorrow, etc). Thus, by accepting this energy, the seeker has a chance to accomplish much more in a single lifetime than would be possible in many incarnations of lower-energy incarnations. Radiation presents a precious spiritual opportunity.

Thus, the seeker's energy merely transitions from one state to another within the same system. Ultimately, there is nothing to fear from being swept away by the high-energy tide of radiation.

I'd like to see more of this.  It..  Resonates.  Since the beginning of this year, the world vibe has been full tilt NO EXIT, and that was even before this nuclear madness.  Now, everything has a vaguely surreal feel as the doom situations multiply, pile up, fall, and crash into each other.  The whole world is being metaphorically and literally cornered, and yet we continue on, acknowledging nothing.

There will come a day soon when we are unable to continue our denial, and only then will we look for solutions and for strength.  This philosophy will provide comfort to many, many people who will need comfort.
