Hi everyone, love you all and hope you're all doing well today!
I'm going to be posting a little less regularly here from now on because I've come to realise that my compulsive obsession with staying "in touch" with worldly affairs has become seriously detrimental to my development as a spiritual being. This often sees me spending hours a day on youtube watching videos of stuff I already know, and following the fake economy as it is orchestrated by its shaddowy masters.
That is not a criticism of the forum as a whole! There's a tonne of great content here! It's just that I, personally, don't have the self-discipline to avoid all the political threads that catch my eye at the moment, then I get into meaningless debates about abstract concepts in what is essentially illusory. I've come to realise that this is akin to debating whether Captain Kirk or Picard was a better Starfleet Captain (altho it was blatantly Picard, don't get me started.)
As my dear friend Laura-Jayne put it at the Glasgow meet, "Same Horse, Different Race."
Now if you'll please excuse any pretentions you perceive of me, I'd just like to say that I get the feeling there is a real lack of understanding of the real reasons why we face the problems we do in the world, both social and personal. There is too much placing of blame and finger pointing when all these problems are infact a result of the universal consciousness, not just certain individuals, some of whom may actually just be doing their duty in incarnation!
And so, if you will allow me, I'd like to share some opinions with you which you are welcome to take, leave, or other just how you please! Love you!!!
The Real Reasons For The Problems Of The World
Social
High Taxes - This is a reflection of how little we as a people invest in ourselves compared to how much we invest in the system. Typically the amout of tax someone pays is something similar to their energetic investment in the system, thats why the super rich get away with paying near to no taxes, they don't invest energy in the system because they own it, they are used to investing it in themselves.
This may or may not also be a reflection of how little/much we invest in "correct" charity (which I'm not sure but I think is giving directly of your time/energy or money) an example of "incorrect" charity would be something like cancer research/something similar because they will never find a cure since that would lose them and the pharmaceuticals lots of money, that is investing in the system or the illusion that giving helps.
Too Much Government Control - This is a reflection of how much we as a people attempt to control others around us and indeed ourselves by creating ridiculous social norms and taboos. Too much supression of the open expression of thoughts feelings and emotions. It is also a reflection of the people's desperate will to control the government (we don't have enough faith in ourselves to embrace the fact we don't need one!) And also, yes, a reflection of the fact that most people hold a belief (and so rightly so) that the politicians and government are deeply corrupt and always up to no good. You give it your attention therefore it becomes more powerful!
Hype About Global Warming - This is a reflection of peoples firm will to "change the world for the better" in all sorts of silly ways that don't help at all!! Infact the only the only way to fix the planet is to fix your self silly!!! Change your energy field!! The world changes with you!!
Other Serious Environmental Issues - This is again a reflection of how little we invest in ourselves in terms of our time, money, efforts and energy. How can we be treating the planet well when at the same time we waste our own resources, energies and consciousness on pointless endeavours which yield "satisfaction" (manifests as consumerism) but at the same time belie our true spiritual nature! Fix yourself! Invest in yourself! And share your what you've learned from this with others! Then naturally the world will move towards a more loving and harmonic state, with everyone doing their bit to fix it! Stop buying useless junk you don't need, spend your moiney on gaining security and supporting worthwhile products/endeavours! Are you happy to spend a tenner on 4 pints at the pub and yet irk at spending £3.50 on a litre of smoothie which is pure fruit??? Can you spend hours infront of the telly but not even face 15 minutes a day of stretching or light excercise??? What message are you sending to your body, your own personal environment?? Are you loving it, cherishing it, taking care of it, fixing it??? If not how do you expect the human race to take care of nature?
Federal Reserve System - Now this is a complicated one and I haven't quite figured it out yet, but essentially I think it's an outward expression of how we as a people concede for others to make decisions on our behalf, by doing this we disempower ourselves, we leave our "spiritual currency" to be exploited by other forces. You give it your attention therefore it becomes more powerful!!
Wars - So many people are anti-war. But they're still at war! They're at war with their neighbours, their parents, their work mates! They're at war with people who offend their sensibilities! So it's no wonder we're at war with different cultures! This is a lack of understanding! The war isn't caused only by the war mongers, it is precipitated by them! These wars are caused by every one of our own attitudes: for example, the need to be right for and also the wish we all seem to have to change other peoples opinion!! That is fascist and grossly disrespectful if the other person doesn't want their opinion changed!!
I am not trying to change your opinion, I am offering you mine which you are free to take or leave!!!
Nuclear Weapons - Ooooh a fun one! Everyone has their own personal arsenal of virtriolic weapons to be used just in case they ever find themselves with their back up against the wall!! We all get into arguments and all the while our underlying subtext is "where are YOUR weapons of mass destruction???? ---- What horrible sleights are you able to unleash upon my consciousness???" meanwhile we wonder why the Bush administration went to war in Iraq looking for weapons of mass destruction???? This is a lack of understanding!!!
High Military Spending In Comparison To Social Spending - This should be fairly obvious from the above, as a people we spend to much time "being on the defensive" - Typically we invest far more of our energies on this than fixing ourselves.
Housing Bubble - Ok here is a really difficult one for me at the moment and I haven't quite figured it out yet, maybe others can help? I think it's to do with everyones slavish hopes to be secure in life, while at the same time fearing the worst, be it armageddon, loss of your job, salary, etc. etc. i'm just not sure yet... Maybe everyone is waiting for something "big" to happen, expecting the worst.
Criminal Justice System - This one is one of the first ones I ever figured out, it seems so glaringly obvious now!!! As a people our favourite way of dealing with problems is not to. Just ignore them, put them away somewhere where we don't need to see them, look at them, focus or address them. Shift them to the back of your mind. Lets not worry about the cause, lets just put it away for a while and never mind it shall we? Maybe it will go away. And so the same with society, just lock 'em up out of harms way, don't worry about cause and effect or trying some rehibilitations. Sometimes we even call them "irrational" or "crazy," our problems, sound familiar anyone?
ok these are just examples of social issues, not extensive and I make no claims that I accurately or totally described all the factors in each of these, they are very multi-faceted, I'm sure you will be getting the hang of this by now though!
Ok how about Personal Problems?
Personal
Bad Things Have Happened To You Or You Embarassed Yourself - You don't even realise you have been endowed!!!! You suffered a torment which will later allow you to let go of some of your ego which enslaves you to finding self worth from the opinions of others instead of in yourself!!* The reason this is driving you crazy right now is because you are not dealing with the emotional feelings, you just keep mulling it over in your head, thinking about it, and pretending that this is dealing with the the emotions or the past! It isn't! That does nothing but drive you crazy because when you think of it all you do is make excuses for it, try to say it doesn't matter any more, put it in context etc. etc. those might sound like positive things but they aren't! They are away of dancing around the true emotional content and prohibit you from expressing it and letting it go! Once you finally do this you will understand how you have been endowed and you will appreciate how much these incidents have built your character!
*note, if you want others to have a higher opinion of you you have to have a higher opinion of yourself, these things work back to front in this reality!
Things You Can't Get Over - Yes you can! You're not trying to get over them in the proper manner, you're still mulling! Thinking things like "I always do these things!", "I'm never good enough", "i fucked up but ack well, never mind", "i'm too old", "I should have...", etc. etc. etc. STOP MULLING, Open your chest and just feel it out, feel it out and out and out and out until it's let go! Thinking about it won't let it go! You give it your attention therefore it becomes more powerful!
People Have Done Injustice to You In An Under-hand Way, Or By Cloak And Dagger - Again, this is a lack of understanding, you don't yet realise how much this person has helped you. They have exposed a gaping wound in your psyche, all the better for you seeing where it is to fix it (once you get over it by the methods described above. If you do this correctly you will begin to love that person who has hurt you, I know because I am experiencing this right now.) To put it in a way you might better understand, you were as a wounded Zebra limping across the saranghetti and you never even knew it! Can you really blame a lion for targetting a zebra with a limp??? Unlike the Zebra you are still here to tell about it! And unlike the Zebra you now have the opportunity to mend the limp so no other lion will be able to target you in the same way! A Blessing!
Pedophiles - Now I mean to get serious here, because some people ain't gonna like this. This is a very complicated one and I don't pretend to have a full understanding of it yet, you may decide for yourself if I am right or wrong here, but here goes. This is a reflection of how we as a people are treating our own "inner children", and of course, those inner children of others!
Not only that but people who have suffered this in their lives *gasp* have been endowed... I AM NOT CONDONING THIS BEHAVIOUR, if you dare do something like this in your life you will pay dearly the appropriate karmic debt - make no bones about it. The people who carry out these actions are not like you and me, they are psychopaths and ill in other ways, there is a reason why they have incarnated. It may be that some of the poor souls who experience this are actually experiencing an outward manifestation of exactly what they have done to their very own souls! When they do come to a full understanding of that which they have experienced then their soul is finally enriched and repaired, I am unsure of the mechanics of this at present.
Well, thats me for now,
I would appreciate all comments, alternative interpretations, other interpretations, questions, feedback or anything!
I hope this will help you understand how blessed you are, you have been endowed with so many tools:
skills, intellect, feelings, emotions, opinions, perspectives, intuition and more!
It is to you to decide when and how much to use these wonderful tools that have been given to you!!!
I hope you will also understand that you have been endowed with some other extra special tools, and those are your short-falls!! Indeed, these are some of the most important tools of all to you because they have been given to you that you may know yourself better!! It is by understanding the origin and meaning of these short-falls which are an outward manifestation of the issues in your consciousness that you gain liberation from them in spirt!!
This liberation you will one day undoubtedly receive! You are bound to be successful, but how soon is entirely up to you! You could be here a million incarnations if you choose to ignore them!
All that has happened so far is that you forgot you had all the power and freedom all along!! You still have it!!! The reason why we don't think we have it because we keep denying it and giving it away, the silly sausages that we are!!!
These are my perspectives, with the utmost of care and love,
