The Pretenders

There is a moment in space time when a soul finally realizes that he or she has been a pretender. Who is this pretender? It is someone who outwardly behaves as if he or she is a soul who loves unconditionally, with compassion, deep sincerity and lives life with integrity and beauty. But, the truth is that the pretender only behaves as such outwardly. Within the pretender is a stingy and incomplete energy who desires only to impress and not to BE. This again sounds harsh but, it a fact, a reality all too common on planet earth. There have been pretenders from the beginning and particularly during times of change and cycles of increased spiritual energy. They step forward as if they are here to save the world with their wisdom and love. This is falsity at its worst.

The pretenders may not even recognize that they are falsely representing truth because they do not yet understand what truth really is. To understand truth one needs to have totally surrendered the ego to the Divine. The purpose of human life is for the Divine to live as the human and not the hidden subconscious. When the Divine is in charge, choices are made by the higher Self, the spirit, of the individual rather than the human persona. At this time on planet earth, the true disciples, the authentic ones are rare indeed. Many are writing and preaching the sublime beauty before they have captured it in their own lives and relationships. I guess it is better to pretend than not be anything at all.

Not to be anything at all is to waste your life mimicking others and not being the genuine article. Remember, surrender to the higher power, the eternal life force, is the genuine personality and yet it is not a personality. It simply Is. It is a fount of beauty, inner wealth, joy, compassion, true understanding, integrity and a love that cannot be described. Until that moment when an individual soul blends fully with the authenticity of who it really is...he or she is a pretender. You see, a pretender only acts, speaks, thinks in fits and starts. A true one is employed by God and is consistent in his or her behavior. This is Being. A personality can involve itself in good works but if the heart is selfish or thoughts and actions impure, it is still a pretender. You may judge this to be too severe but your higher Self knows differently.

Forgetfulness, Abuse and Freedom

We all desire happiness. The problem is we have forgotten the path to real happiness. With so many issues confronting us daily, we must be more attentive than ever. It helps tremendously to purify our thoughts and not bother with vain and nonsense things. We all have a space in the universe. For many, it feels it has been lost and the desire is to find it. Some souls gave up when they were children and decided that they really didn't want to be here. Other people feel like aliens. In my opinion, those of us who are actively living from the impulses of the inner Nature are the real aliens. People for the most part have life all wrong. Many accept abuse as a normal state of affairs. Abuse in this instance includes how we are continually duped by the government, the educational system, the church, man made laws, parental ignorance and much more. Century after century various systems have come and gone, one after another, but all with a single goal...transform us into a soulless slave. This probably sounds harsh but if you are not a deep thinker and question life, it is very easy to become robotic. Often times, parents programming and belief systems are part of the problem. We must think for ourselves and look closely at how we have been conditioned.

We must free our souls from aggression, selfishness, fear and many other dark feelings. When we are free from aforementioned, we are capable of goodness, happiness, balance and fulfillment. We need to create a space of love that I have previously suggested. We need to embrace our inner reality, embrace the whole earth and Her life forms. The larger part of which we are, spirit, is capable of embracing the whole earth. We embrace the earth with our invisible self!

Become aware of your inner nature, the collective memory, respect it, work with it, heal it and cherish it. Act in accord with the limitless spirit, the essence of who you are. Have you ever felt your spirit? There is a magnificent light emanating from us, it is grace and hope and many other godlike attributes. Be conscious of your spiritual light and emit it. Imagine how different our lives would have been if our parents thought of the soul coming into their newborn as a Buddha or a Christ!
To feel this truth, it must be felt with the heart because the heart is capable of understanding it.

Ego, Change and Attitude

The 20th century stands as the most barbaric century in recorded history. An estimated 196 million people lost their lives due to wars and programs of mass genocide. Now in the 21st century, mostly hidden from sight the practice of slavery still persists. It is a subtle and very different form of slavery. The slavery is enslavement to personal debt and debt of nations. It is slavery to material objects. Our rivers and seas are polluted and we have consumed vast forests, decimated thousands of species of plants and animals and scarred the landscapes of cities with pollution. Our 'modern' ways have produced chemical fertilizers and the abuse continues...

What if our parents had been spiritually mature and envisioned our incoming souls as a Christ consciousness awakening in our miniature bodies? What if we who are parents had an attitude towards the incoming souls of our children that they, too, were Christs or Stars ready to shine? What is sorely needed is a change in attitude. For centuries, a false god has been worshipped by the ego/personality. This false god is not benevolent. It is greed, war and destruction. What has happened all over the world is not an accident. It is not an unforeseen event. Cycles repeat themselves. It was destined to happen. The difficult times in which we now live have been foretold by prophesies since time immemorial. The selfish ego is bent on self-destruction. Under its control are all of the social, political, corporate and economic institutions that now dominate the world. This corruption has created the world as we know it. In the process of wrecking our world, the Ego will destroy its own possessions. We are seeing signs now as to how it is destroying its own wealth and power. This is good because the collective selfish Ego will become weakened and humbled. People will be forced to face their own souls, their individual ego, the enemy within and banish it.

There are good changes occurring. For instance, well over 70% of Russia's total population has acquired small parcels of land and are producing food for their own table and making an enormous contribution to the national economy. More people are awakening to the treasures of the earth and the treasures yet to be discovered within. It is happening because we are ready for a new experience...an experience significantly different than the trap we have fallen into.
