Changing the World- Changing My Self

Everyone is talking about a new Era, an era with new conditions where we become a true and conscious being. As we enter the Age of Aquarius, we hope that the new man and new woman will be an individual whose enthusiasm and moral values correspond closely to that which has always been taught by the great Masters of humanity. It feels like a whole new science but in truth the science is ancient. Methods and techniques are again surfacing that will help us face up to the changes which are the inevitable accompaniment of the birth of a new era.

There is intense stress, loss, suffering and tragedies happening all over the world. It is becoming increasingly obvious that we live in a chaotic energy and are continually being exposed to shocks. So, it is not a question of changing the world...that would be impossible...but of transforming, enlightening and fortifying our inner being and helping others do likewise.

Maturity, growing up to our inner potential, can be like shooting an arrow into the dark. You may feel that you are in constant warfare. You may encounter opposition from relatives, friends, government or medical professionals to name only several on a long list of possible adversaries. In some cases, people may misunderstand you, misuse you, misjudge you and perhaps blame you for doing things and thinking in a manner, which they believe to be unjustified. They are afraid. Be kind to them.

Think of all the great teachers whose thoughts were so contrary to the thoughts at the time. Humanity eventually accepts new ideas that work for the good of all. It really is not that difficult for us to pass from the thought of an ordinary person to the thought of the energy of an evolved being. We can either accept that we are obliged to pass through difficult periods because this is how it is on earth or we can choose to strive toward balance and attract truth, beauty, health, prosperity and genuine happiness. We heal and evolve by learning to place our limited human self under the protection, guidance, wisdom and love of the inner Self.

To hear the voice of intuition, the best part of who we really are, will occur naturally when we succeed in calming all our inner agitations, the rebellions, fears and selfishness. The ideal is to willingly open our minds to new thoughts and sustain an attitude that accepts change and infinite possibilities. The inner Voice is the voice of who we really are. It will express itself when all the nonsense in the emotions and conscious mind have been silenced. How do we know when we can trust the inner promptings? When the answers harm no one and are in harmony with the truth that the sages and saints have given us. It is then that we are on the same wavelength and are not being misled.

Develop a focus, an attitude, which is an ongoing state of mind that demands truth. Eventually, the within and the without become one. Our ultimate destiny is to be whole, balanced and loving beings. As we choose to be who we really are, our trust and behavior evolves and unbelievably rich and good things happen to us. They may be either small or larger experiences that only a person with true sincerety would understand and appreciate.

Balance is ours when the inner and outer match. The results will manifest in the human experience. I know as my truth that we can end negative effects by living in the knowledge and acceptance of our highest and best Self every day. Instead of being engrossed in intensity, anxiety and even greater stress, why not uncover more deeply who we really are and finish the assignment? Our job is to evolve.

Our destiny is to uncover the sacred part of our selves. It is not far off somewhere. Get the personality, its fears and sense of separation out of the way. The maturity that comes with balance of body, mind and soul can be a great adventure! Move beyond the veil of the superficial part of the mind. Developing a love for wholeness and elevating the thinking part of the mind and heart to a higher region dissolves the barrier that has been falsely created between the spirit and matter. Barriers shut out Light. Fear temporarily separates us from the Light. You are the Light. What we place our attention on, we become. It is then that we live as fearless and confident beings experiencing firsthand a change that reveals harmony and real happiness.
