Default Re: Knowing and freedom

I think this thread started out great. It has veered off into the new age, all you need is love direction.

Love when it is not balanced with power and wisdom, is unenlightened human love that will not change the world. True love is unconditional and it pushes all of creation to become More. We're not to sit idly by and watch as the world becomes lovely. We're here to co-create that better world. We need to balance power and wisdom with love in order to do that.

Being = Love

Anything that is solidifying your ego, is not going to lead to unlimited anything... other than continued unlimited suffering...

It is not the egos of the power elite that are the problem of our world, as much as it is our own egos that are the problem with our own experiences.

The world outside is a reflection of the individual and collective inner state of our consciousness. As long as we believe we are the thinker, and we are solidifying our thinking, this shift the earth is going to go through will involve many birth pains indeed. We must awaken to our divine reality beyond thought, beyond the ego.

We can say love all we want, the new age movement has been doing just that for decades, and it has not born good fruit in terms of reshaping our world. Until we walk through the darkness we will never get to the light.

We must surrender our own ego illusions, surrender being the doer, surrender to the higher consciousness within. Not my will, but thine be done.

Because from an enlightened perspective, I'm well aware that the higher will is my own will. It is only my ego that thinks it needs to make decisions on it's own and attract what "I want". Only to find that when I have it, I need something else and in the mean time I'm creating all sorts of karma acting from my unenlightened perspective.

The ego is a black hole of desire because it tricks us into thinking something outside of us will fill the void inside. This seeking outside of us leads to endless cycles of birth and death and suffering. The truth is that we are not the ego. Until we are reborn into the higher consciousness that is always in the Now, as Jesus continually stressed, then we are the caterpillar, the walking dead repeating the same lifetimes and mistakes over and over...

The only possible way out of suffering, the only possible way to the kingdom of heaven, is through the surrender of the ego. The ego is the ultimate deception and deceiver. It is the devil inside. We don't overcome it by fighting it, we transmute it by observing it, and sending it love, whilst continually surrendering our own illusions and darkness. The transmutation turns our ego consciousness into the Gold of the divine Being we really are.

The ideal is to do this while we are in embodiment, this is what we came to earth to do, to express our divine individuality and raise it up. If we refuse, cycles pass us by along with cosmic opportunities. Often, we can ascend after the embodiment is over, but without the true victory of adding our own divine light to this planet in the material realm. Many are called, few choose. The true Way, the way to victory, is the way of overcoming the ego.

Knowing you are not the ego is the key, and when you know that and overcome the illusion that you are it, you will Be. You will be free.
