- The relatively immediate future for any individual is
easy enough to predict. We are here for a while, and then we are not. Since
the realms beyond the physical plane are capacious, and life goes on
abundantly,
what we call death is the least of our worries. Our real problem is the
future of our species in incarnation on this planet.
-
- This material, physical plane where we find ourselves
now has many hidden properties and purposes which are as yet unknown by
the vast majority of incarnating souls. Nothing is, in reality, merely
as it appears. The surprises in store for the human race are far more
profound
than any which have come before. And it is a matter of utmost urgency that
mankind become as conscious as possible of existence as it really
is.
-
- Mankind is not, on the whole, living in reality. Those
who are sufficiently awake are acutely and painfully aware of this. There
have always been souls in incarnation who were more conscious than the
majority, and who therefore lived out their lives within the confines of
a vast predicament. But what was once a personal problem to solve, and
a matter of individual spiritual adjustment, has now become a planetary
emergency.
-
- The relation between the more conscious individuals in
the human kingdom and the many less awakened has now become a critical
matter. What we call Life is a unified field, and no particle of reality
is separate from it, or from any other particle. Those who press on ahead
can only do so in the overall context of human spiritual progress as a
whole. Individuals are able to consciously undertake their own evolutionary
development here only if the main body of mankind is relatively stable
and sane according to its own current evolutionary level. And at present,
this great requirement is being directly manipulated in order to divert
humanity from the path of spiritual evolution altogether.
-
- The majority of human beings on Earth are now undergoing
forced devolution. Throughout history, the choice to travel away from the
light was always available in any given incarnation. In the past, this
was a matter of conscious free will, and of making decisions from the level
of one s own awareness. We then experienced the meaning of our choices
through living with the results. This resulted in genuine learning. Whoever
is now on the Path of Return has previously tasted the bitter fruits of
dark choices, and for that very reason turned willingly back toward the
light. But this crucial element of free will in living and learning is
now being subverted at the very root.
-
- The only purpose of evil, or ultimate unreality, is to
provide necessary contrast to reality, so that the free will of a human
being can exercise itself through choice, and thereby grow in wisdom. This
element of free will is embryonic in much of mankind as yet, and can easily
be blunted, distorted, diverted and paralyzed. This happens in some degree
to everyone, for that matter, over and over again. An important part of
the evolutionary process so far has been for the individual to learn to
withstand the pressures of other human beings opposing his or her own
evolutionary
best interests. But until now, the intervals between incarnations have
sufficed to assimilate such lessons, and we have reincarnated refreshed,
eager to resume the struggle to manifest our spiritual selves here.
-
- Critical and relatively recent changes have dangerously
altered the fundamental state of normal evolutionary affairs on this
planet.
The underlying cause of this is so dark in intent, content and extent that
most people have not yet even begun to suspect how deeply their world has
been transformed out from under them. The subversion of the evolutionary
path of mankind has been delicately and incrementally accomplished. A close
study of the last fifty years will slowly reveal how this was done, and
how this degraded world-view was made superficially attractive as a
preliminary
to making it compulsive.
-
- No deliberate distortion of evolution, however powerful,
can appear entirely out of nowhere. There has obviously always been latent
potential for darkness, embodied in one form or another, to grasp the reins
of existent evil on Earth and drive a significant portion of mankind into
the ground. So far, this has required the conscious or at least partially
conscious cooperation of a number of participating human beings. What we
must understand, above all else, is that advances in direct technological
manipulation of the human mechanism are now able to short-circuit even
rudimentary processes of choice.
-
- An individual has always been able to ignore the voice
of his or her conscience: this is the greatest gift of the Creator to the
human species. In the long process of evolution through the human kingdom,
we have all, of our own free will, experienced trading the inner voice
of truth for outward safety, comfort, and temporal power. By reaping the
inevitably painful results of our self-serving choices, we are driven
eventually
to seek the reality of the spiritual life of our own free will. No
coercion,
shaming, forcing, browbeating, or imposition of any authority of any kind
can cause the human soul to genuinely seek God s Beauty, Goodness and
Truth.
Only joyfully returning the gift to the Giver, out of one s own mature
free will, is of any value either to the Creator or the creation.
Cooperating
with the spiritual laws of the universe through ripened and grateful
understanding
is the ultimate destiny of humanity as a kingdom in nature. Such a destiny
carries a potential for multidimensional creativity and joy that far
surpasses
the human capacity for speech.
-
- Yet this destiny, the divine birthright of the human
race, is being turned into its polar opposite by the most powerfully
equipped
and united forces of pure evil which have ever existed on the face of the
Earth. All beings evolve toward their ultimate end, whether on the path
of light or the path of darkness. Consciously evil entities also live and
learn. Through its embodiments, evil itself discovers new ways of
circumventing
the inevitable dissolution of its temporary forms in time and space. And
what the forces of darkness have engineered lately is a vast network of
human beings willing to go down the black path toward the wholesale
enslavement
of mankind through coercive technology.
-
- It is not only the conscience of individual persons at
sake now, but far beyond this, the actual normal daily-life consciousness
of mankind. The distinct still small voice of conscience, the voice of
the soul reaching through the mind, must traverse normal awareness in order
to be heard at all. It is only still and small because the typical human
mind is not yet listening to it closely. When human awareness is fastened
day and night to the drive for ego satisfactions, then nothing will be
heard beyond this din. But as long as basic awareness is not seriously
tampered with in primary physiological, emotional or mental levels, then
individual free will remains undisturbed. In this condition, people are
still perfectly free to choose their actions, feelings and thoughts, and
experience the consequences.
-
- Once the chemical, genetically engineered, and
electromagnetic
alteration of humanity becomes ubiquitous and compulsory, the basic normal
consciousness of mankind will be lost. If this happens, there will be no
avenue left for the conscience or soul to reach down and touch the human
heart and mind at all. At that point, the spiritual evolution of mankind
in incarnation on this planet will cease. We live on the brink of an abyss
into which our entire species may be precipitated if we do not awaken in
sufficient numbers to prevent it.
