I am increasingly aware of how strong the veil of fear is that pervades this planet. Each of the thought forms that is sent out into the ethers laced with fear becomes a glitch that keeps the pure essence of light from permeating us at a cellular level with the blessing of Love.
If we look at the media...the things we read, watch on TV, see on our computer screens when we log in, and go to the movies to see...what is the tone? What is the message, and what is the byproduct of the content? Just as in our food, we are bombarded by junk. We take it all in as though it is a requirement, never thinking of the adverse effect it has upon our psyche, our being, and the well-being of our planet.
Yet, we do have the power of choice. And as thinking, conscious individuals, it is essential that we begin to be responsible for what we are choosing to take in to our consciousness, into our body, and to our way of interacting with life. Thoughts are things. We are manufacturing new "things" moment by moment. As those things are fear laden, the veil obscures ultimate reality. As we consciously choose to uphold love, not as an insipid or saccharin state, but as a dynamic evolving pool of creation, we will find ourselves avoiding those elements that pull us down and move to those that elevate us.
I have noted the preoccupation with negative prophecy, and in thinking about it during my morning walk, observed the following:
The problem with fear is that it feeds fear and begets fear, and as we are hooked into that medium through the messages surrounding us, our fear reactions are predictable.
Again, I am reminded of how important it is to move beyond the level of phenomenon. We dwell on prophecies that feed the negative. Why don't we give equal attention to the prophecies of hope? How many prophecies were given about the incredible communication age we are in? Did anyone bother to talk about the amazing things that are happening on the planet...ever...other than in dribs and drabs? Why not? Because it isn't sensational. It is good news, and people tend to feed off of the adrenaline high we get from fear. Messages of hope only add a peaceful and unifying tone, and people don't necessarily like to be peaceful. We like to be on edge. Many of us are addicted to caffeine, and fear is the ultimate caffeine!
So, we are all laced with historical failure. Hurts. Mistakes. Disappointments. But we are also a species that has many victories. Otherwise we wouldn't still be here. As we work towards the precepts that dignify life, we lift the veil that keeps us from wholeness. Then the light of love is able to penetrate us and the planet in a way that brings about an ultimate blessing for which we have in truth been created. It's our choice. KJ
