The drugs don't work no more. Religion don't work no more. Politics is a waste of time. Marriage Don't work no more. Education teaches nothing. Surely everything cannot be useless can it? Are there things being discarded which may actually be of significant help in the enlightening of humanity?
Perhaps we cannot see the wood from the trees because things have been naturally blurred and distorted, and partly because there are sly manipulators at work who enhance the confusion, if not create it.
SILENCE. This works, I think. I don't think people who have discarded "religion" have such a big problem with the power of silence. It is what we are asked to do in order to experience that silence which causes indifference between people who are at different stages of their own spiritual evolvement.
Let us not chuck the baby out with the bath water, or the bath for that matter as we all, including adults of any age, should try to keep hold of our innocence. A "real man" or a "real woman" may be too embarrassed to do so.
The authorities may not like you retaining or emerging pure spiritual innocence, simply because they may not be able to reach such elevated levels because they are snakes. Their only means to control populations is by degrading the general vibe, energy, awareness, consciousness. We need to take the responsibility as an individual to play our part in what needs to be done now. Not every one needs to do it. The most potentially powerful souls may have been contacted now and are dealing with these issues, or battling more like.
We may only be able to accept silence power as the way forward once we have had it and lost it, checked out other avenues to compare, and then we may well end up naturally discarding the religious ritual and repetition and get on with the silence thing naturally, out of necessity of course.
Are there demons working for God even, who give these potentially powerful souls a very hard time if they start to slack beyond the allocated time of any given tea break? We lazy types may not stand much of a chance then and our only option sooner or later may be to face the music and be what we can be. Not what we were. Those elevated glimpses of the self? Would it be possible were I am not this and even more, at the essence of the being which I am?
Of course, even if a particular path teaches a "non-religious" practise, the individuals are sure to put their traits to work and stir up all the old religious approaches to spiritual practise; possibly derived from previous lives from within themselves as well as the influence from the world. Spiritual practise involves simply being a Spirit, it is what we are, naturally. So why all the religious rigmarole? Is the religious stuff only to bring about the spiritual experience of our natural qualities?
If we have the experience of the words, The Knowledge, then we can use words to talk about the experience. If all we have is words, then all we can talk about is that which may bring about the experiences. I don't know, but the ego may prefer dry knowledge to the actual experience in case it has to TRANSFORM to its natural state of SELF RESPECT.
The definite and fixed hierarchy of spiritual beings who are more important than all others within religious structures? Perhaps it is not people who are important, but what people are doing. Even if we have the potential and know it, we still have to do something to let others know what we have to offer or we will be ignored and shut out rather than helped to play the role which may be in store, or would have been. "what’s for you won't go by you".
And how is it that God does not appear to take this religious approach, (I write with the awareness that there is a "God" or supreme being. Or one we left behind simply to remind us of our own original personality. Created in Gods image) yet we can and do? Are we really that thick and arrogant? Maybe. The first step may be to accept that. It is horses for courses and part of the lesson on humility may be to accept everyone no matter what level they are at spiritually. An arrogant "spiritual type" is no better than an "ignorant shallow type". It is where the ego is placed which matters, or not as the case may be. The ego spectrum.
It can become frustrating being in a world where we have glimpsed something of a higher vibration and the majority of others may appear not to have. It would appear to be something which cannot be forced at will, experience, within the self and others.
