Shop eCoursesIn a very unique form of arrogance (which is really human alone in its nature and appearance), there is a given attitude, a given perception of life--that one is not only apart from everything that one sees, but that what takes place in one's life is something that the individual (apart from what he or she sees) has some control over and can change at will.
And if I can't change it, then I just feel bad about myself.
And that's where humanity vacillates--between arrogance and depression.
The story is much larger than that.
You've seen of late (and in increasing fashion), these heinous acts of individuals acting out some form of great violence. Rage expressed (towards a group or a community or an individual) in fashions and ways that are beyond what we are actually used to even say those
words that it's worse than what we are habitually used to.
To even say those words, that it's worse than what we are habitually used to, is itself a telling story.
But here's what I'm leading to.
Right now (in the world that we live in), we live in a world that is not just the world that we see.
Starting from the outside in, science has more recently been able to register and determine, that what we would call the photosphere (a certain kind of energy that surrounds our solar system--in part produced by our great, beautiful sun, and in part by the bodies in the system and outside of the system), that the photonic activity, the actual measure of light, is perhaps a thousand times greater than it's been in known history. A thousand times greater!
And, not accidentally, they're also able to determine (and I could go down planet by planet) that most of the planets in our solar system have begun to show a measurable increase in their atmospheric qualities--including a magnitude of difference in the brilliance of the planets.
In part, because of what the planet itself is going through. Because they can see and measure certain things interior to the planets. And, in part because of what the planet reflects as part of the photosphere that's growing in its magnitude.
All of this is to say that our Earth is being bathed increasingly in light. Increasingly in light.
Now, does the planet (meaning nature on this planet), does this nature need the increased photonic activity? Nature's been doing pretty good by herself all of this time. Hasn't she?
So what's the purpose of all this increased light, this increased quickening, this vibratory acceleration? What's its purpose?
I can tell you that a great deal of the upheaval that you see in the world (and perhaps in yourself), is due to the fact that matter is being stirred at a level that it hasn't been stirred at before.
And when light strikes anything, it creates a relationship between what is active and passive.
And when that is stirred, opposition appears.
And when the opposition that appears (as a natural result of those energies) isn't reconciled in the manner that the system has been prepared to do, you see violence and anger and hatred surfacing in humanity. You see all of the aberrations that are taking place (including inside of yourself, where you are now, hopefully, able to see things that you have never been able to see in yourself).
To identify with what you see in yourself is to completely mistake and misunderstand the reason that you've been given to see what you can now see in yourself.
The key is to understand (which no egomaniac can do) that you are not some isolated God living in some separate place--in charge of the powers that take place in and around you.
You are an instrument. You are an instrument. You are a vessel. You are a reflection of a certain series of a certain converging set of forces.
And, at any given time, your life experience is, directly, the way in which those forces are registered inside of yourself--and whether or not you realize their purpose.
Because when you don't realize the purpose of what is unfolding in you, the purpose gets named by something inside of you that becomes a pain, a problem--and then eventually a desperate act.
Try to understand this. It may serve you in the future.
