My days are spent ‘blog surfing’ and as such I have developed a sense of what is out there. Now if you are looking for something you are bound to find it, at least that is what I always believed. Lately I am not so sure. And this is difficult to explain but I really think someone should at least make the attempt.The blogs are a wonderful way to get a quick view of what the net world is thinking about. Now I seriously doubt that a 3rd world family living in poverty has even a glimmer of understanding of the net and all it offers the imaginative and grasping mind. For this reason my conclusion is that only a few of us will actually shape events of the future, but hasn’t that always been the case? One of my efforts in was to find well informed non biased articles regarding spiritual awareness. And did I find it? Well if you look at it from the classic view of western civilization then I did: but with some stipulations. If you wander into the traditional religious (spiritual awareness) blogs there is enough information to blog the mind blind, and without interruption (no advertisements). But with anything beyond the traditional you get ‘buy my book, herb, magnet, crystal, candle, etc. etc. etc. etc. NOW!’. The argument of course is that without the ads they would not be able to continue the lofty work of being a guru.Well my question to the guides (channeling), gurus, spiritual advisors, feel good crystal heads and the thousands of others is this: at what point did the Buddha or Jesus The Christ (Pagans of the first order) find a need to charge for spiritual guidance services? Did I miss something? Did either one of them have an agent that I am not aware of. Was their path preceded by an ad campaign to purchase first hand accounts of their wonderful work? I have yet to find a spiritual advisor web site that stated no one would be refused services for lack of money. It may be out there but as yet I have not seen it. If you know of one, please post the links in comment to this post.Now I have heard a lot of ranting on message boards most of them regarding the politics of the planet. The simple truth is that none of this matters in terms of infinity and the powers who are in control will remain because most of us are too apathetic to actually take any kind of positive action. Can it be turned around?
Over the past 20 years I have had the opportunity to listen to many lofty ideals regarding humanity and its spiritual direction. Much of this came from New Age chatter and eventually internet gurus. My own experience with humanity is that most are mentally lazy and prefer ego based reactive solutions. And that is the reason why we are probably not ready for a compassionate government. A compassionate government is based on the premise that each individual will take 100 percent responsibility for forward movement of the group. This is a replacement of the external god head with self determination. Laws are counter productive in a compassionate government because the premise is an expectation of aberrant behavior. In simple terms, you get what you expect. Laws are created by those who wish to control and this wish is due to their own fears that others cannot be trusted. Historically it has been fear which has ruled our little planet. And it would appear from what I can see, admittedly a narrow view, that it will continue to rule until we are ready to Trust. Replacing fear with Trust requires an intense amount of hard work and creative thought. The old world is gone, and all that remains is sweeping out the corners. Those of us who still require others to provide community harmony and operate on fear and paranoia are tied ‘to the illusion’. The illusion comes in many forms, and usually includes a belief that an external authority somehow controls our destiny (the god head). In short, most of us like the idea of self determination, but we always seem to qualify it with “I’m OK but you are not, therefore we need laws to protect me from you.”
The lofty net talk about ascension, transmutation and entering new dimensions is delightful to listen to, but few of us are really ready to handle the responsibility. It is easy to sit in the comfort of our living rooms and discuss the potential of mankind, however, it is quite another story to actually change our view from fear and paranoia to love and compassion. Until we are ready to Trust the Universe we are not going anywhere.
