I'm posting this here for my easy referencing and archiving. It was originally written in 2008 for my Amethyst Road site.
"The old is giving way to the new. In
other words, the disintegration of our social structures is not the
product of a pathology, but the profoundly positive consequences of
humanity shifting from an intellectually oriented mode of evolution
through the exploration of the physical world to a heart centered
mode of evolution through responsible choice with the assistance and
guidance of non-physical Teachers – through the pursuit of
authentic power."
Gary Zukav
We have been discussing so much about
“change” for more than a year and now it’s time for us to get
personal. With everything around us in a state of flux, natural laws
dictate that we cannot escape without going through some form of
change, too. Since we are evolving into higher consciousness beings,
our mental and physical beings will be affected in tandem as well.
All of nature seeks equilibrium, and if a system of energetic
vibrations undergoes a shift, then it follows that the other “parts”
will also shift in their own way until a balance is achieved.
In summary, this is what I mean. We are
undergoing an evolution. It begins at the spiritual energetic level
through an ascending vibrational frequency. When this shift in energy
occurs, the equilibrium between the spiritual, physical and mental
becomes unbalanced, so there will be a natural tendency for the other
two to also undergo their own shift in order to accommodate the
vibrational change until a state of harmony is reached.
So what does it mean to be a higher
consciousness being?
While I emphasise that our personal
journey remains very much a unique path, there are of course general
attributes which constitute the model of a higher consciousness
being. The basic fundamentals are greater awareness and clarity of
what Life truly is.
We will gradually start to view the
world around us differently. There will be a sense of connectedness
which springs from within for what we see around us. We will realise
that there really is no need to have dominion over Earth or any
living creature. We will lose the interest to conquer, tame, rule,
domesticate, control or colonise. We will understand that Earth or
any “paradise” on it belongs to no one, and we cannot claim
sovereignty over any part of it. We will finally come to a greater
awareness that all we have is stewardship, not ownership, over Earth
and other creatures.
We will see beyond social impositions
and expectations. As we walk away from these external blueprints, we
will inch closer and closer to our core essence, which requires no
blueprints because it has always been there – intact, whole,
divine, perfect. We will lose our need to be “someone else” just
to comply with social benchmarks, and instead feel the need to become
our True Self just because it is the authentic expression of our
soul. This will lead to the dissolving of our incessant craving for
approval and validation from the outside world. This in turn will
result in an inner sense of peace which emanates from within and
permeates outwards. We will be at peace with who we truly are.
We will understand that separation will
only serve to perpetuate the misery which is prevalent in the world.
The mentality of “us” and “them” cannot bring us to a place
of love. Only when we come to a conviction that no one, no race, no
religion, no country is really more superior than another
We will recognise the futility of
seeking drama in our lives. For far too long, humanity lived in a
state of spiritual wilderness, having lost our connection to our
Divinity, our Source. We misplaced our reverence in some far-away
realm, reachable only through a specific set of doctrines and
rituals. This led to the feeling that we had been “cut off” in
some way – the result was that we began to live spiritually empty
lives which in turn made us believe that we were dying some sort of
death. In order to feel “alive”, we allowed ourselves to create
one drama after another in our lives. Living through drama, no matter
how bad it was, was preferable to a life devoid of drama. Drama made
us feel that we exist, and gave us a sense of identity and a place in
the world. Once we re-connect to our Divinity or Higher Self, we will
re-establish the spiritual abundance which will fill our lives,
rendering the need for drama virtually unnecessary.
We will begin to be responsible over
our own actions. We will appreciate the fact that everything we do
has a consequence, and therefore claim responsibility over every
action that stems from us. This will bring about greater awareness of
the world around us, and we will welcome our growing ability to
become more sensitive to the people and situations in our lives. We
will move from a place of self-centredness to a place of
self-awareness; the former makes our world very small, the latter
enlarges our world considerably. Our choices will automatically be
responsible ones.
We will commence our transformation
from a five-sensory human into a multi-sensory human. And then,
namaste will not just be a mere greeting…it will be a truth that is
deeply felt, understood and assimilated. We will finally begin to see
with Divine eyes.
And Life will look simply beautiful.
