If I Could Change the World.

There’s been an overwhelming pressure that’s been building from within and from without for a really long time, now - this idea, this identity, this struggle with that which will define my worth and my value in the world.

…an unstable kind of thought and emotion and atmospheric ingredient that cause tornadoes to touch down without warning - the “kind” that fuel fires and release floods.

And though there is a deep (and not so deep) part, (but not a “part” of me) that's not really “me” that knows this, there are many veils, many masks, and coats, many ideas, many identities, many objects that I have had to travel through in seeking this value and this worth.

Still, I keep falling into the trap - I keep forgetting what I truly am and when I do, I become too defined by my role and miss my dharma, my purpose. And, the thing of it is, everything is really quite perfect and helpful and useful, regardless of its form; I’ve become adeptly sensitive to the pressures on the outside of the things that these eyes see and these ears hear on the inside that are leading others astray.

This is how my body saves me.

So, when I say astray, I don't mean from some ideal or some religion or some”thing” that we “are” (defending). This is not what I am talking about. I am pointing toward the “way” these ideas and religions are used by those (including by your own internal landscape of belief, behavior, and longing to belong) seeking to fulfill an unconscious and fearful purpose.

For there is a stark difference between those seeking the Love of Power and those seeking the Power of Love.

I'm talking about faith - that which is trustworthy and reliable.

And though religions use words like faith (defined by some patriarchy cultivating fuel to empower its hierarchy) these external interpretations do not own its power. You own the power of faith with every word you speak!

You own the vibrational quality of what faith means regardless of the language spoken, but this does not hold true within every culture, of which religions and ideologies are an integral part “of”. When cults begin to dictate your morals to further a thirst for power and prestige, you have no agency - the way viruses begin to alter how your other organs function, the power of the whole is depressed and depleted.

What I see that is so very dangerous out there is how not all but too many are packaging and selling these “useful” philosophies or understandings for contrary intentions and interests.

Mindfulness and Meditation are not products. Platforms and Apps are products that connect you with powerful resources, and make access instant - on-demand.

And they are useful, believe me, they are on the outside. They are, for a little while! But like Twinkies, what these platforms promise is a chemically enhanced/induced prolonged (shelf) life. And, without understanding them on the inside, without being able to recognize the many codes and programs that are also scripted by others (shadow gurus - teachers and politicians and musicians and people in everyday life ) - if we are not able to recognize them, we become prey instead of informed consumers.

This energy has a consonant culture, a hierarchy, and a mechanism - capitalism, corporate organizations, institutions, and systems of economies that have lost touch with faith and which worship profit — the way a liver loses faith that we’ll stop drinking after prolonged alcohol misuse and over many years of losing its ability to regenerate, we find ourselves unable to remove the toxins from our interior - to purify and transform what we may be ingesting unconsciously.

And this force has become so enraptured in the cycle of getting bigger - getting more clicks and votes regardless of moral code and with the resources to defend this immorality indefinitely - this force willfully creates chaos and disorder and dispassion and fear and hatred because this is what it feeds upon.

It’s not personal.

The greatest crisis, therefore, said Krishnamurti, is “a crisis of consciousness”, not necessarily a crisis of faith - or morality or spirituality.

If we address our state of mind - if we own and become responsible for the well-being “of” - by default, and in time, all will be addressed, all will be aligned, in harmony.

But it's so easy to fall into the trap every day! All these ideas of, “Don't push me around,” and, “This is my time,” are indications that I have become so attached to this body and this “body of work” that I have missed the moment altogether, the moment when I don’t “choose” faith, rather, I’m held in its grace.

When life feels “gra”ve, I am “gra”teful.

I try to practice this radical acceptance, tripping and falling all over myself, believe me, and when I do, I am located on that temporal plane and I am enlightened. My thoughts are enlightened. There is an ascension.

However, this relationship is not available going down these wormholes, these APPS, and these platforms and AI technologies that have no faith, that don’t have access to that sense of personification.

These entities are leaning so far into the physical realm, that they cultivate emotions that produce certain chemicals, which contract attention and reward the brain. For this reason, the only way to feel whole and to receive that which we are seeking is to practice in ways that cultivate the muscles of attention and compassion which inform us when we are being abducted.

… to devote our thoughts to love and to action those thoughts compassionately and to offer acts of kindness that inspire loving thoughts.

If we're not present during the abduction of our free will, how free and powerful will we be in the presence of others, or in the presence of powerful algorithms rewiring our circuitry in ways that cause us to explode and implode; like the converter on our Airstream this past weekend in Florida when we accidentally connected it to 240 volts instead of 120.

The fan just blew.

A plume of smoke came out and all else failed, and it started depleting the battery. And we couldn't recharge the battery because we realized that the trickle charger that we were using could only go up to a certain amount of volts. The Trickle charger is what tops off the battery - to keep it going when you're not using it. The converter is what takes the unstable and two-directional Alternating Current - the AC, which comes in - and converts it to a more stable, direction Direct Current - the DC, the reduction needed to run appliances while simultaneously charging the battery.

And so we were stuck.

And this is happening to us. Without awareness, we are midnight snacking on TikTok (except it’s not midnight, it’s all day long), seduced by hungry hormones, and then abducted by these algorithms that are measuring where your eyes are looking and where your hands are touching, right?

… recording us at the most intimate moment - the spark of desire and the intention to touch, to bring into motion, and exploiting our most fundamental being: this desire to expand, to be released from this body - heaven, pleasure, enlightenment, bliss, persistent non-symbolic experience!

And without awareness, these algorithms keep bringing you deeper and deeper. “Look at me. I'm depressed. I'm thin. I’m inspired. I’m angry.” And we believe all these thoughts, though they are not helping you. Only in the idea and in the pain and suffering of believing that you are alone are they helpful.

Because now you have given over your soul; and it seems to be better off

in the hands of this dark force, rather than within the struggle of your own lightness and being. And, no one is offering any advice about how to go about responding to these emotions of depression and anxiety and jealousy, bitterness, fear and hunger, and hopelessness.

What do we do?

We must attend to our own being and recognize that any division spirals us into duality which also offers us the opportunity to awaken and respond accordingly, meaning us and them, or me and her, and him and they, or whatever it is - we’re not tearing down walls outside, we are tearing down the ones inside.

We also have to create healthy boundaries, to notice how they are expressed from within, enacted outside, and experienced inside. And if we don't understand the relationship between how we appear on the outside with how we want to feel on the inside, then we start to send out mixed messages to the world, and we cannot express and communicate “that” which we are.

We cannot sing our song. We are impotent. Unimportant. Silenced.

And so it feels so much better to give our power over - to blame someone else for our problems rather than take it upon ourselves - or to look through the peephole of one dimension at the exclusion of all others. Ignorance.

Even now, as I'm speaking with you, there's a part of me that keeps coming in, saying, “Open your eyes! Make sure this is recording!” Lest we miss this whatever it is that I'm sharing. And I'm sharing this with you because it's happening all the time, and the way we respond - my response - is vital. My response does not push this thought away. It recognizes that these thoughts rise because that is what they “do” - that is their nature, and there is such great concern that this message be heard.

The greatest gift that you can give the world is to start understanding yourself, to get to know yourself.

…. to know the demons, and recognize the angels, to understand the electric circuitry of the brain; and how this holy trinity serves us, how this neuropathy creates our world and how that is expended and extended beyond through ethos, pathos, logos - body, spirit, mind - sat, chit, ananda.

And the signs are everywhere: The 9-pointed star announcing the new faith - when the East and West unify. The 7 Universal Laws that command time and Space. The 5 ministries of transformation and purpose. The 3 Sources of Trust. The Triune, which is holy, whole, healing, and healthy. The 2 that spark everything - Shakti and Shiva, birth and death, inhalation and exhalation.

One consciousness.

And so do we begin with One Consciousness without traveling through the rest?

No, nor are they in any order. They are multi-dimensional. They are free agents. They look like some sort of atom or neutron, spinning around. Begin wherever you are, but you must begin and you must know this - you must know how to recognize all the other ways in order to travel effortlessly, or at least without suffering.

For the mere fact that we are human beings makes us mortal, prone to the pain of this decay.

And the earlier we begin to recognize these relationships - those existing on multiple dimensions, on a quantum field - the better able we will be to bring joy and a sense of safety and connection in our lives and to age and die with dignity.

Though it seems very urgent to my small child or this ego to want “to be known”, I would rather be unknown for the rest of my life —may my name never be spoken again as long as this message is heard:

You are creating your world.

And some of us are more capable than others, and some of us have been born into lives that we would never choose or want. But know this … what you can choose right now is how to respond - to believe in Love and to allow faith to meet you, and to recognize that hatred is a form of fear that keeps you so far from what you are,

and that the world needs you.

The world needs you.

If you're hearing this message, please know, it needs you.

Blessings.
