Last week, I had another revelation that indicates to me this physical reality we call the 3rd Dimension on planet Earth, is probably one of the best schools in the universe, if not, the very best school. Souls come here to have the 3rd Dimensional experience of physical form, having suffered soul amnesia, so that all the life lessons that a person faces, are confronted without any prior knowledge of what the solution may be. We are to learn our lessons of life as if we have no idea what is actually going on here. On a deeper level, beyond our human conscious awareness, we do know what is going on, but this perception is not in our conscious awareness, until that magic moment when we have been able to develop that part of our greater human potential, and not before.
This concept of planet Earth being an elaborate school is quite shocking, and refreshing, both at the same time. Shocking, because we are all lumped together with billions of people who, each, are to learn distinct lessons of life, which indicates different groups of people reflecting different states of consciousness. This may have something to do with the concept that there are different soul-age groups, which include infant souls, baby souls, youthful souls, teenage souls, adult souls, mature souls, and old souls. Common sense may inform us that if this soul age group concept is true, then a baby soul does not have the same conscious awareness a mature or old soul has.
Herein lies the real issue, because, let us say, that a majority of souls are very young, infant or baby, or even youthful, and they go to the voting booths to elect a leader, and they will elect someone with whom they resonate, in order to satisfy their requirements. Obviously, a mature or old soul will perceive their own requirements quite differently, and this is where democracy becomes fallible. Many of the younger souls want to be led, and to be taken care of by their government, whereas, the more mature souls are, seemingly, more self-reliant and independent, and prefer to discuss an issue, so as to arrive at a mutually beneficial arrangement/solution. It would further seem that the twain between younger and older souls shall not meet, at least in this 3rd dimensional realm we call home. This consideration brings me to the main point, which is:
I have lived quite an interesting, wide and varied life, having chosen to learn as much about my total Self as I can, and, likewise, to learn about the purpose and conduct of other individuals and humanity as a whole. After many, many years of learning, observing and being mindful, I have arrived at the stark conclusion that this planet Earth is an intricate and complex school, to which many billions of souls all over the Universe and even the Omniverse, clamor to come, to incarnate here and to place themselves on the extremely fast track of learning and evolving. Therefore, and here is the grand kicker: the structure and infra-structure by which this planet operates CANNOT CHANGE PERMANENTLY!!!
Wow! Did I just write that? Indeed, I did! Allow me to explain further, and I think you will get the bigger picture and will agree with me, that everything, we, humans have experienced for many thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, and even millions of years, and that which we are experiencing on this planet right now, is all intended to help us Humans grow in Consciousness, and accelerate the evolution of our total being, which, of course, includes our individual souls.
Let us look at history, whereby we can see that there has always been war and conflict on this planet, in some form, in some place, and which continues to this day. The degree of human suffering is off the charts, everybody, and all living beings, sentient or not suffer what humans do on this planet, or do not do. There are also age cycles where the magnitude of suffering lessens, and then humanity experiences some progress, joy and happiness, only for that to make way for suffering again.
I wrote a book, Heroes of Humanity, in which I describe quite thoroughly the different ages, cycles short and long, including the Precession of the Equinoxes, which is a cycle of about 26,000 years, and which, in some way, coincides, it seems, with the Indian knowledge of Yugas (ages). For instance, from what I understand, this planet has now arrived at the nadir point of a 26,000 year cycle, which seems to coincide with the emergence from Kali Yuga, which has qualities that are similar to the 2,160 year cycle of the Piscean age, when suffering was/is at its zenith. The point where we are currently, as I am told, is the half-way mark of the 26,000 year Precession of the Equinoxes cycle, and as we pass through the nadir, the lowest point, we will begin the upward arc, on our way to create a Golden Age for Humanity, which may last for about 2,000 – 3,000 years, only to begin descending again into the abyss from which we are just about to emerge. So, experiencing a Golden Age for about 3,000 years out of a cycle of about 26,000 years does not seem so wonderful, does it. This is particular irksome when you realize that we are re-incarnating during these cycles in order to learn and grow in Consciousness. When we have arrived at that point of Enlightenment, we are able to move on, into a higher frequency of vibration, which takes us to the 4th, 5th dimensions and above.
In order for planet Earth to continue being the consummate school where we learn how to improve ourselves, nothing, I repeat, nothing can change permanently, for then it would lose its value as the best school in the Cosmos. This brings me to another point: While we cannot change that which is external to us, and that includes other people, WE CAN, AND ARE MEANT TO ONLY CHANGE OUR INDIVIDUAL SELVES, BY OUR OWN INDIVIDUAL SELVES!! In other words, as we change our individual Selves, everything, deep within us, and all that is on the outside of us changes by itself. Now, if you want to discuss this further, all you are to do is to understand the Quantum Field Theory, the Entanglement Theory, the String Theory, and learn how everything responds to whatever state of Consciousness anyone is experiencing in any Now Moment. On the other hand, just by having the intention to develop more of our immense innate potential, and practicing a formal technique of meditation, including other practices that support such development, we will know this truth spontaneously, even if it takes us some years, or even a few more incarnations.
The wisdom of knowing this, is to recognize our individual potential and do whatever we can to develop that potential, and thus, by doing so, we enhance our ability to develop more of our innate Consciousness, and actually accelerate our journey through this incarnation, and see where it will take us. Perhaps, to a far better life here in 3D land, or ascending to a higher dimensional reality. The choice, as is always the case, is with you and me, and each one of us human beings. So, in those immortal and inimitable words of Dr. Samuel Johnson, “Be sure to perform thy allotted task while it is yet day!”
In other words, let us be the very best version of ourselves that we can be.
