There is something that is on your mind,
that you want to write about, Roy, it is simplicity. You are also contemplating
the usefulness of what you are doing.
So, as I understand it, you are wondering
if it serves anyone to bring them into enlightenment. Considering that mankind
is in the physical world intentionally and by choice and is experiencing that
which he freely chooses. You wonder why, you would offer him enlightenment, that
would set him free from this world. It is your thought that you may be
committing spiritual malpractice.
Roy, that would be impossible. What you
are doing has purpose. In order for you to exist in the physical world and
experience that which you have gone there for, you must forget. You must forget
that it is "I" that wishes to experience the physical world through you and your
body. You must also forget that you are me and that the ego doesn’t really exist
and is part of the illusion.
Forgetfulness is a powerful drug. It is
so powerful in fact that you will deny the truth over and over as it is
presented to you. At some point in your physical life you will have completed
what you wish to experience and you will either move on to another experience in
this lifetime, or you may wish to return from where you came.
The drug of forgetfulness wears off
slowly. There is often much confusion and apprehension. A bewilderment that
sends the body into a search for the truth. The ego starts loosing control of
the body and becomes fearful. Physicalness is a powerful addiction. Over time
you have become attached to your world and things in it. Many of you repeat your
birth several times, because of it. Roy, you are an angel, a helper, a guide for
those that are beginning to awaken.
Awakening is an appropriate term. The
sensation is much the same as from waking from a powerful dream or coma. Roy,
you can not damage anyone that is awakening or in that process. Those that are
still asleep will not hear or believe what you say. The one that is awakening,
is searching for you. He is looking for answers. The student is ready, and you
are there to help him/her. What you are offering is what they are booking for.
"When the student is ready the teacher will come." The ones that are not seeking
your council are the ones that are yet asleep and they do not want it. This is
were you could be practicing spiritual malpractice, if that were possible. You
must allow your students to seek you out. They will recognize your words and
your words will trigger a response. Such as a homing instinct. These are the
people that are ready to move to their next step in their evolution. The others
will laugh at you and point their finger, they can not see the truth or wisdom
of your words, simply because they are not ready.
Roy, do not be judgmental, everyone is
at their appropriate level of understanding given their model of their world and
the level of enlightenment they possess. Everyone, EVERYONE moves through these
stages. Your students will be from all ages or age groups. Some souls are
finished early while others wait to later on in their life period. You do not
have to recognize them, they will know you, by your words. It is you and others
like you that have agreed to help those that seek awareness, and awakening. Let
your thoughts be known, but do not worry that anyone is listening, they are.
What you are doing in truth, is gathering these other parts of yourself into an
awareness of the whole and offering them a choice. Choice, freedom and
unconditional love. The many will join with the one again, and then again
separate. Do not judge the non-believers, their non-belief is appropriate, it is
the only way that the system can work. Bless them, for in their state of
non-belief they bring you a gift, a special gift of your own awareness. It may
be several more lifetimes before they are ready. And there will be guides for
them as well. Your time is now!
As for making the world a better place to
live, Roy, that is a thought process, your thoughts, and thoughts become
manifest in physical form in your reality, with the intensity of the thought
that you generate. There are many worlds existing at the same time. Choose the
one you want. The others will not be effected by it. Those that are in your
world will be in it by choice, in harmony with your thoughts, because it is your
thoughts and theirs that is creating it.
Roy, religion is not truth. Religion is a
metaphorical, abstract glimpse of creation. Religion is man’s attempt to explain
his spirituality. This is mankind’s overall truth in the physical world, as
created by him. It was created by man and is as real as he believes. Some
religions are more closed than others, while others have evolved with man. At
best, it is an immature process that guides him through his early experience of
the physical world. It is immature and limited in it’s scope for many, but does
allow mankind an opportunity to start expressing himself in spiritual ways.
Religion and it’s symbols are man’s
creation. They are beginning steps into enlightenment, they are not a
requirement to be spiritual or enlightened. You are spiritual, naturally.
Religion seeks to convert, while spirituality is freedom. Converting, is not
what I want you to do, Roy. No one needs to be converted or saved. Give your
hand to those that are already outstretched. There are "none’" who are unworthy.
There are only those that are asleep, and those that are in the process of
awakening. You have my blessings, Roy, although you do not need them—you never
have. Hang up your shingle and wait for those that will come. Stay away from
those that claim enlightenment only for the sake of argument. They are still
asleep, they are not here to find their truth. Welcome all who are awakening and
are seeking their truth, for they will listen, that's why they came.
