To Be or Not to BePart 2
It is shown by many scientists that life and intelligence was fully developed as far back as 20000 years, perhaps longer. That the people of the past were far more spiritually connected than we are in our present time. All people of ages past had a deep spiritual connection and awareness and not only with nature. This direct connection to spiritual life gave incredible knowledge and power to the physical experience. Then something happened to cause the human race to devolve rather than evolve. That ‘something’ was emotion. At some point in the development of man it became necessary to introduce the emotional body. This was like putting a transformer into the electrical circuit. It stepped down the power available to life. It became far more difficult to have a direct conection with the spiritual world, the direct connection and its knowledge was lost. I believe that man became too powerful and did not use this knowledge and power in the correct way. He used it to create power for himself rather than the good of all. Introducing an emotional body into the system was a sure way of limiting the once all powerful use of energy because emotion utilizes energy in great quantities and as already said, puts a barrier between physical and spiritual. Since the time that the direct connection with spirit was lost the human mind has been working to rid itself of the energies which continue to block spiritual reality. The various religions and religious philosophies are evidence of our search for the lost higher power and direction connection that we once had. We are searching for what we once had, not for something we have never known. It is only by eliminating the negative and destructive emotional energies of life that we begin to work outside the emotional body and once again connect to the great power and knowledge of spiritual energy. Of course you would not give great power, the power to create or destroy to someone who was not responsible in Love. For this reason true spiritual power remains unavailable to most people because of selfish emotion. For the majority of the population it could be likened to a great electrical shock to suddenly find itself being infused with spiritual energy without the protective emotional transformer. The power experienced would be incredible but cause terrible destruction to the physical shell we live through because the mind has become weak with selfish thoughts. The human race is being taken through a period of struggle so that when it does re-enter a time of spiritual freedom it will not again allow itself to use its power to dominate others. Some are close to this dream, others have a long way to go. But I do believe change is coming. A change that will separate the loving from the selfish. Change is usually accomplished by some catastrophe. What this might be we cannot know but it cannot be long delayed. The world has suffered many major catastrophes on its journey through time and space and they have always brought change to the situation of it’s inhabitants. After death we find ourselves in a world which is not very different to the one we have just left. In the next world we find ourselves unchanged. It can never be the instant light love and beauty we expect except for children and those who have gone through incredible emotional or physical suffering before death. First we go through a period of adjustment and then slowly the emotional body we had lived through falls away in much the same way that the physical shell fell from us. The truly spiritual then find they are attracted back to the light and a place of peace and freedom from fear but for those who have chosen a less than loving life the future is a little less pleasant. Such as these are drawn into the energies they have chosen to become. Loving to the light, evil to the dark with many shades of colour (emotion) in-between. There is much talk about Karma, having to put right a past wrong. What is not correctly understood is that Karma is mostly worked out in the astral world. I realize this all sounds very gloomy but its not really so bad. Everyone has at some period of their lives helped another for unselfish purposes and this unselfish love, no matter how small will be added to the greater being we are evolving to be. For my readers who prefer a more practical approach to what they read, relax, in the next newsletter I will return to the emotional and physical problems of every day life. Oh yes…. Only 8 weeks to Christmas. Malcolm Southwood
