The mind is
a powerful instrument. Life is not
permanently changed by miracles but by the development of consciousness and
science combined. The mind as it has
been for humanity since the beginning of life on earth has not brought forth
the perfection or the divine illumination that is needed to stop
suffering. Something is not being
understood. The facts that have
shattered hope are the unequal development of individuals. There needs to be an immense action of stable
light, a higher level of consciousness, for a cosmic harmony and unity to flood
across the planet.
The world
has seen many great teachers and the world remains divided. Life must be transformed. Human nature must change. Some look for the answer exclusively above. The light, the answer is right here in our body
and life. None can reach heaven that has
not passed through hell. What good do
our meditations; visions and bliss states serve if we do nothing to transform
existence here on earth? Everyone enters
a battle field that lives in a physical body.
It is our role to embrace, understand both the dark and the light. We cannot permanently heal unless we have the
wisdom gained when we hit rock bottom. Usually,
we do not descend to the base unless we have touched the heights. Both extremes are part of the journey of the
soul.
We have the
ability to bring down the Light, the Divine nature and strength into the parts
of the mind that need to be healed. We
need to understand the highest and the lowest.
The Light will gradually pervade our darkness. In one of my books, My Own Tree, the cover displays the eternal Tree. “The eternal Tree roots are above and its
branches downward,” says the Katha Upanishad.
The future moves downward penetrating our confusion on all levels of
mind. At some point, awareness and healing
begins to seriously take place.
Have you
noticed that through both the good and bad, we step upward followed by a step
downward? To transform life, we experience it.
It is the awakened and individualized consciousness energy in us that
does all the work, automatically.
Regardless of how good and spiritual we may feel or appear, everyone
experiences these swings in consciousness.
At the same time, we are never given too much more than we can handle.
There is a
law of ascent and descent which appears to be a contradiction. Perhaps, it is because most people are not
aware that they are fighting a battle on various levels of mind. It is uncomfortable knowing we have a black
shadow existing somewhere in us. The
good part is we have a corresponding Light. Light and darkness is our double
nature…animal and Divine. There is only
one single substance. There is a
positive in all negatives. We need to be
aware and work from both ends. Face the energy
of darkness and heal it with love and the power of Light. There is a treasure within the cave. Connect the two and create a perfect circle.
The finite and the infinite are one. We
are destined to create victory here in the physical body. The level of our vibration is the key to transformation. Clearly said, we have a choice at all times
to face, heal and use the energy of our Divine nature or continue to use the
energy of the animal nature. Now, this
brings up an interesting point in my mind…if humanity is ever going to be at
peace, not only must individual consciousness be raised, the cellular energy
and memory of the physical body be healed through a deliberate evolution.
In harmony,
