Our Eighty-third Chapter

inviting you to the Path of Conscious Living 

Once again we meet in our Open Forum, where we explore the teachings, and challenges, of this Path of Light and Wisdom... and now, more than ever, it’s time to practice

  

Self Determination

We live in a disturbing Age, where we have great technology but lack the maturity to use it ethically. This gives rise to much misuse and abuse, especially when it comes to ‘the dissemination of information’ [read:- “how much bs. can they get you to blindly accept, and manipulate you into doing what they want”].

 

The world is standing at an crucial crossroad - one where leaders are failing their people, and lies are loudly declared as ‘holy truth !’... and if anyone disagrees, well then, there are ways to shut them up...

And yes, this goes on even in our beloved US of A - or should I tell it as it really is, and call it ‘the Disunited Sates of America’...

Doesn’t anyone remember the old saying: “ United we stand, divided we fall”...

Are our so called ‘political leaders’ truly blind to the consequences of their grand-standing...or is it simply time for our narrow-minded ego to declare the end of our nation ?!?

 

But I digress ... What I wanted to share with you is the most important NEED we each have to ‘see the Truth, beyond any doubt or obfuscation’... and so, here it is -

 

Whatever you’re looking at, ignore ALL words, lectures, statements, religious and political source

 and simply look at their ACTIONS

 That’s TRUTH !... Everything else are just excuses, or self-serving indoctrination.

 

Sounds harsh ?  Yes, it is !

 

So, no matter the ‘reasons’, here are facts:- more than 25,000 innocent people have been killed in Gaza... We are no longer giving Ukraine the support they need to win the war - because of political self-serving blackmail - but we are giving Israel the very weapons that are killing defenseless women and children [you figure out the Karma this creates] ...The second most popular political party in Germany is an extreme Right Wing Neo-Nazi dictatorship - and is gaining popularity... The Chinese are committing genocide - and no-one is stopping them; soon there will be no more Uyghurs ... Britain is reneging on their Global Warming agreements - and they’re getting away with it... The extreme weather we’ve been experiencing is just the beginning of what’s to come - it’ll get worse, and the insurance companies are no longer covering you ... Sexual abuse in the Church was an atrocious cover-up - why was it allowed to happen, and who is being held accountable... and now many other Churches have become political game-players, and lead their congregation to blindly follow the propaganda which serves their own bigotry...again – who is being held accountable ... School shootings are destroying our youth - and special interest groups are spouting excuses like “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people” - without accepting responsibility for the ease of the violence they create...[that kind of nonsense reminds me of the drug dealer who said that he did not create the problem [addiction], he was simply a businessman supplying the demand]

 

And there’s more - do we need to talk about Ecuador, North Korea, Ethiopia, Pakistan, Mali, Myanmar... and the rise of violent dictatorship in the world...?

The world is filled with Darkness and chaos:- is there pride in the soldier who kills defenseless women and children...or is it just the sanctioned violence of a sociopath...?  

 

You may not like any of this, and you may even have many ‘excuses’ as to why this happened - and even why it needed to happen... but that’s just words ...

 

Actions speak louder than words - Facts cannot be denied.

 

So, here we are - the world is at a crossroad, and we’re bombarded by misinformation and self-serving manipulation...

And so, who is holding people accountable for the consequences of their actions...?

 

This is not ‘just a phase - wait long enough and it will change’...or ‘let’s promise them what they want, but not really do anything about it’... or ‘let’s elect people who have no skills, no heart, no consciousness’ ... or ‘just accept that those in charge are not held accountable to the same standard as the rest of us’...[remember George Orwell:- “All animals are equal – some animals are more equal than others".]

 

If history has taught us anything, is that ‘Decadence precedes downfall’...

 

What ‘actions’ define you ...

 

Do not be a sheep, blindly following those that lead you to slaughter... forget words and excuses - look at the actions and the consequences these create...

 

And remember “All it takes for Evil to succeed, is for men and women of goodwill to do nothing”... Now what are you going to do ...?!

 

The call is given... Live in the Light of your own Higher Consciousness... Namaste ...

Instructions on the Path

This is a new module where we offer insight, guidance, and techniques that may help you on your Path... and support you on resolving personal challenges.

As always, this is freely offered... the results depend entirely upon you and your efforts.

If you find yourself struggling, feel free to contact us for more clarity and support.

Self Determination

 

1 - Most important is to realize that you cannot have clarity if you are emotionally agitated...yet there is much to be agitated about... 

 

2 - So, take the time to embrace your agitations, go deeper and deeper into your feelings...and ask yourself ‘Why ?’... Why are you feeling this way... Where does it come from ... What can you do about it... ?

 

3 - Accept that you are agitated and practice ‘Stillness’ - Yoga, T’ai Chi, Breath-work, Bio-feedback, Holy Chants, Mantras, Dance, Meditation ... they all help you become more clear-minded and centered.

 

4 - Now look at what is agitating you:- what are you willing to do about all this ? If nothing, then accept what is, and stop getting so agitated - you’re just hurting yourself.

 

5 - If you’re going to do something about this, make sure your actions have integrity, and come from a strong ethical base [and not just ‘Righteous Indignation’ - that’s just prejudice and propaganda].

 

6 - Evaluate people / groups / neighborhoods that support the same values as you... and join them. There is strength in unity !

 

7 - Be Pro-active, and not Re-active... and always consider how you are seen by others.

 

8 - Consider the Big Picture:- what is your ultimate goal... and how best to get there.

 

9 - Some battles cannot be won [at the moment]... Focus on winning the war.

 

10 - And in ALL that you do, DO NOT become like those you oppose. In bringing Light to the situation, do not act / speak / be like the perpetrators.

 

Do not become Darkness

 

11 - Finally - take time out to recharge and regain your center. 

 

 Do not lose sight of Who and What you are.
