Whether Miriam story stacks up or not is not the main point. It is the message that I hear from many of the interviews and it is this.
it is my understanding that human-beings are a spirit having a human experience of choice.
Our purpose is to evolve our spirits by experience.
Humans of all the creatures on this pebble are the only ones that have the power of self determination, I don't see Loins and Tigers planting potatoes or building houses.
This power of self determination is guided by two forces Ego and Conscious (Fear and love). The Ego is like the motor in a car and the conscious is the steering.
. Unfortunately there are forces in our world that have deliberately developed the Ego ( sense of individuality ) to the extreme. (Fortunately for humanity it is not natural and I believe will be challenged very soon.). The only true peace I have found is not in the things I don't have ie big house nice car all Ego driven material things , but In the things I do have life, health, family and a genuine desire to help.
As earlier I mentioned that I believe that our purpose is to evolve our spirit through experience. For when we die it's our conscious / spirit that goes on for it is the only stable thing about us, it never lies ,or gets drunk, never gets emotional it is here just gaining experience. God can create life, but can't create experience.There is no "Good" and no"Bad", just experience ( what a relief ) but if I were to remove either Ego or Conscious there would be no evolution. for one on its own is like black without white, the ying without the yang. The discipline for me is to do what my Conscious says despite what my Ego wants. If my Ego is in service to my Conscious ( which is the voice of my spirit )then I have a powerful force that can steer me on a wonderful journey.
This is the message I hear from Miriam we need the change the collective attitude from "What's in it for me" to " How can I help" If every one dedicated five hours a week to charity the would would be a better place.
