We've Been Fooling Ourselves.... >>If you look at the Christian/Western history , it's states and Empires almost lead the entire world up to complete anilhilation by mechanized warfare and horrible incineration by nuclear holocost . And the Middle East ?<G> All in the name of God Chris ? Yes it seems someone went astray , somewhere. But other teachings that came before, never led to this ? regards>> Mars: You bring up an interesting point. But bringing it up still doesn't improve the lot of the world one iota. The "Western Mind" has ONE basic flaw - ie. it believes "it" is "more worthy" than others. The blot - the lie - is in the fundamental separation which this approach creates. But there's incredible and tragic irony in all of this for it is believe that "we" also were the first to invent, establish and support democracies which led to the birth, development and support of unprecedented freedom and liberty. Therein lies the lie - ie. in "we". For all light, energy, truth and love has absolutely nothing to do with anything "we" claim to define, create, possess or control. No sooner do we go down this path then the jaws of destruction are there to arbitrage "we" into a model which inevitably will lead to total/complete destruction/annialation of not only "we" but our entire planet. We may think we are beyond this with our sophisticated technologies, education and understanding, but truth will always expose and arbitrage any/all lies and separation from the core energy, light and love of God. We are all of and in God. We all are simply to do ONE thing: help, serve and love others as we would want to be treated. It's a pretty simple truth which nobody can teach or direct for this has to be experienced to be understood. And God is the teacher. Nobody else is or should be involved. Sure, the Western mind has advanced many great causes and inventions which have opened the door to many new freedoms but we've somehow not applied these victories to raising up the basic/core spirituality, understanding and love for one's fellow man throughout the world. One of the key problems is that, too often, our religious, political and economic systems are all in bed with each other working to prevent the growth and development of real spiritual truths that our founded on simply 1) the individual and 2) God. We already are great, special, fantastic, incredible spiritual beings with unbelievable purposes for the expression of Love that comes from God to help and serve others. We really do NOT have a FREE market for giving and charity in the world. And the Western world looks even more exposed because we have espoused these principals of freedom and truth which formed the fundamental basis behind the creation of our country, but no sooner did we "win" than we settled back in "our ways" which weren't by/of and for God. And now the whole world is watching. Worse, it will demand a complete, full and fair accounting of any/all discrepancies. Why did we annialate the Indians? Why did we enslave and then continue to restrict the blacks? Why didn't Truman display the awesome power of the atomic bomb off the coast of Japan? Why did we sign all of our financial destiny/control away from the natural power of free markets to a regulated system which is essentially controlled by a private company - ie. the Fed - which is owned by the largest private banking interests in the world. and which simply has the ONLY contract to distribute currency backed by the full faith and credit of a police state to tax us? Why is every dollar of this fiat currency based on debt - which is a derivative of fear, limits, lack, control and restrictions?? Why don't they tell us if all the debt goes away all the money in circulation goes away, too? Well they don't tell us these things because we've been too deaf, dumb and blind to ask these simple, basic questions which get to the heart of the truth behind the illusions within our world we take for granted. "Religion" as this world likes to sell, spin and control it is not the answer. Truth is the answer. And this begins with each individual. Forget about what I, you or anyone says. Ask "what works!" And if we are really truthful to ourselves about "what works" I strongly believe more and more of us will come to the realization that all of us already have the answers and that they aready exist deep from within us where the light, energy and Love of God enters into communion with our souls, enlightens our understanding and shows us the way to a true that's based on love service to the universe, to others, to self and to God are all ONE and the same. So ask God "what's works?" And allow Him to enter into a close relationship with you. We are all mirrors of the Godhead. The more we understand this when we look into the mirror the more we will see, understand and know the face and being of God Himself. Peace. Light! ONE!! GO!! The list goes on and on and on.....
