A lot of people are writing and talking about,

  • spirit

  • higher self

  • personal enlightenment

  • shining health

  • transformation

  • attainment of the Godly

A lot of people are following the words of those who proclaim knowledge of the above...

It is clear that many are searching for the security of a sound spiritual path to lead them through the material and mental chaos. Something that will bring with it a new awareness and sense of reality.

But this immediately raises the question:

once having set off down this road - what will one do with the new found power which comes with traveling it?

This opening-up of a new dimension of personal awareness and inner freedom.

Will one be content to simply carry on with 'life as usual' basking in the sense of uplift generated by this elevated sense of being? Perhaps one will change one's diet.

 

Buy a purer toothpaste. Take a brisk run each morning. Get a better juicer. Practice regular yoga and positive thinking.

 

Even maybe seek to move to the fresher air of the countryside?

These are the 'life changing' messages that emanate from 'Enlightenment plc':

  • the glossy mind, body

  • spirit periodicals

  • the earnest conferences

  • the retreats

  • the copious on-line sites devoted to self improvement

Nothing exactly wrong with any of these, of course, except that they mostly simply offer bolt-on 'improvements' to the existing status quo.

 

More a kind of self enhancing escape route than a going forward to build something entirely different. Which, of course, is what is actually needed.

What is so evidently missing here, is instruction to the initiate to direct this new found energy outwards - into actions that help transform the dire state of life and of people on this planet.

 

We cannot escape this material dimension in which we find ourselves, but we can help to transform it, by bringing our newly acquired four dimensional insights to bear on the largely static status quo.

To become aware, and therefore in a certain sense 'to be free', carries with it responsibility:

A responsibility to help bring about a radical change (in society). A change informed by the bigger awareness achieved by our new found consciousness.

This is the pay-back we are bound to make...

 

For having 'seen the truth' one cannot then hide from it. One cannot simply sit crossed-legged and dream of a better life.

Once blessed with a little enlightenment, we are in a position to recognize that inner personal development and outer actions for positive change - are two parts of one whole. Just as inhaling and exhaling are also two parts of one whole.

 

Only when the two are united - and made one - can we truly express our God given potential.


There is no spiritual 'enlightenment' without complementary grounded actions in which to pour our greater vision for the betterment of humanity.

 

Such outward actions can also be termed 'service to humanity'.

'Enlightenment plc' has tried to deceive us in this.

 

Enlightenment plc says,

"No problem, you can escape from the material third dimension by seeking higher consciousness in the fourth dimension and leaving the problems of the world behind you.

 

Pay your dues and tune in to us - and you will be healthy, happy, untainted by the greed, violence and destruction going on around you!"

Yes, there is no doubt about it, the self-salvation road show is booming...

 

Millions, who can afford to pay its fees, swear to its efficacy and personal rewards.

  • How tempting then, to jump in and turn one's back on this deeply wounded world; leaving the 0.2% control freaks to carry on their take-over, unopposed and unnoticed.
     

  • How easy it is to leave the management of this jewel into which we were born and of which we are trustees - to those who are totally indifferent to its fate. Those whose only interest is money, power and control. Complete control over everything.

Yes, it's oh so tempting to evade our responsibilities as guardians of planet earth, and escape into this chimeric deception called 'freedom'.

Real freedom is wholeness. And wholeness is the putting back together of that which has been made separate.

 

The spiritual is all too often seen as disconnected from the physical and practical. And the practical and physical seen as separate from the spiritual. Separate entities.

 

The powers of the spirit plane remain divorced, and even in opposition, to the powers of the material plane. Indeed, one is often considered superior to the other. As two halves, neither one is whole. Without integration, both remain only half of what they should be.

 

Only half of what they are...

The maintaining of this division is the key trick played on us by our oppressors. It is the Ace card in their control pack. We need to recognize this and act on it.

There is a deeply disquieting mismatch between what aspirants get high on and the actual state of life on earth.

 

The tens of thousands who diligently work on their asanas; who meditate daily; who keep only to the obligatory diets; who purify their drinking water and try to do the same to their souls.

 

Supposedly 'awakened ones' who turn a blind eye on reality, choosing to remain 'politically correct' and aloof from the fray.

Such individuals strive to remain untouched by the contaminated world around them. Not daring to face the fact that the contamination is there because they make no effort to prevent it. That the wars carry on because they make no effort to stop them.

 

That people are abused because they make no effort to defend them. That the main abusers continue to push open the doors, because it is not considered 'spiritually correct' to block them.

Is this really the great road to human emancipation...?

When, I dare to ask,

  • Will such individuals be willing to channel the fruits of their awakening into bringing down the despots of destruction?

     

  • Those who continue to hold them and this planet to ransom, when will they dare to face the truth and act on it?

For at present too many are living a lie and calling it truth.

 

They are simply perpetuating the failings of those who are always on the look-out for 'a great escape'.

To make life whole, the spiritual/mental plane must be fully integrated into the physical/practical plane - and vise versa of course. Our true power lies in the marriage of social activism and spiritual aspiration. For in essence they are One, but have been divided against each other.

 

Divided in two by powers that seek to derail humanity and capture the planet for their own despotic ends.

By integrating a steadily awakening spiritual awareness with a determination to bring deep social change - we can and will - overcome the divisive hold exerted by our oppressors.

 

This is the only, yes only, way to achieve true liberation. Now is the time to unite.

Time is short. We are very far down the road of divide and conquer. This blood and war stained road to ruin. A state, we can now admit, which has been brought about through our own passivity and abstention, and through the control system capitalizing on this abstention.

 

Let us not pretend that we are so delusional to imagine we can live-out our lives as enlightened slaves.

 

One day, those who persist in turning their backs, may be rudely reminded of their selfish indifference by a uniformed thug with a gun in his hand. By then it's too late.

Now is the time to take control of our destinies - to get on the front foot and seize the initiative. Words alone will not cut the ice, neither will prayers alone. In the end actions always speak louder than words.

 

All those who claim the sanctity of the spirit, cannot forever turn away from confronting those who continue to systematically destroy the very air we breath, the very food we eat, the very water we drink, the very earth we live on.

We are fully equipped with - but have as yet failed to manifest - the courage necessary to turn the tide of history and to block the despots from tearing apart the uniquely precious soul of man and the beating heart of our living planet.

 

True acts of love and of freedom manifest as bold and defiant determination. A far cry from the call for 'love and light' to sweeten one's self satisfied journey to a chimeric salvation.

There is no time to loose. A totalitarian jack-boot is about to crush our deepest and most precious aspirations. We must rise up and stand firm against it.

By bringing together, into unity, spiritual aspiration and social activism, we will be taking a quantum leap towards true empowerment.

 

We will be instrumental in catalyzing a great turning point in humanity's struggle to throw off its adversaries and lay the foundations of genuine freedom.

By braking the chains of divide and conquer we can - and will - bring to our doorstep the great victory we long for. A victory which, at this very moment, lies right in the palm of our hands.
