It is a curious view, to sit in an awareness of the malign forces who seek to hijack The United States of America, after first making her weak and vulnerable to corruptions they were also considerate enough to supply. ♫all the world looks sad and dreary♫ at the moment, (thank you Stephen Foster; no doubt you are now a racist) BUT... appearances are deceiving. We ARE NOT witnessing the whole of The World, tinder-dry, on the edge of conflagration. Hmm... perhaps I should clarify that; some will INDEED experience The Conflagration because that is the certain result of their intentions and their actions. An early seer pointed this out in the song, “Going to Kansas City.” If you are intending to get to Kansas City, you should not be surprised to wind up there.

What we are... more precisely facing, is a destiny in accord with our ambitions and in line with the specific fate that accompanies them. It's all Purpose of Demonstration down here on The Field of Pentacles, or Material Plane, if you prefer. Those seeking to take over The World WILL fail. The will fail in spectacular fashion as well, because this is an apocalypse, which is one of the most profound teaching moments, courtesy of The Conscious Cosmos; also known as God

I forget the whole of the story now but someone once asked The Buddha, “why... when The Buddha-Lands of the Ten Directions are all very pure, why is our world so corrupted and filthy?” The Buddha replied, “You cannot comprehend the world in which I live.” Then he pressed The Earth with his toe and The World immediately became brilliant, pure, and filled with splendor. Then The Buddha said, “This is The World I live in.”

We ALL live in a world of our own creation. If you do not like The World you are living in- CHANGE IT! Often what you hear after having said this is... “Yeah... but... what about this and what about that?” Uh-huh... what about it? Some people prefer dismal states of being. It gives them something to whine and complain about. Some will say that they do not have the money to change the world they live in. I've no money. I changed the world I lived in. It did take some time, and that is possibly what most people will object to. It REQUIRES... no, it DEMANDS that you provide a consistency of effort. Bad habits have to be resisted for certain amounts of time in order to be overcome. They ALSO have to be replaced by good habits. In other words, it takes WORK.

People are okay about having a job. They get a paycheck. They pay their bills. They live in whatever comfort and supply their intelligence and industry have provided for them. They can SEE the return on their investment. When talking about actually changing yourself, which automatically changes your world, it becomes amorphous. You can't see what it would be like or hold it in your hand. It is indistinct. This is because of an undisciplined imagination and a weak and compromised WILL. Concentration is The Key to The Magical Art. If you can't focus, how can you pay attention? How can you be consistent? Yet this is what you need, and some need it desperately.

What is it that The Enemy does? He DIVIDES you against yourself and each other, all of whom are another version of yourself, composed of the same animated dust. He creates hobgoblins in your mind and then manipulates you through your Fear, and also through your Guilt. Guilt is a major industry for the enslavement of humanity. Well, I probably deserve it or it wouldn't be happening to me. How do you wind up with guilt to begin with? You acquire it by going contrary to your better nature and your Higher Self. Why does your conscience nag you? It wouldn't nag you if you weren't disappointing yourself.

The Avatar is a kind of Cosmic Turbocharger. It is like The Sun entering a room when it had been cloudy for days. If you are at all inclined to rise to a higher plane of understanding, he will make it easier than it has EVER been. You CAN get caught up in his tailwind. If you are not opposed to him doing a little Spring Cleaning on you, you will be lighter than you have ever been. The Light has enemies, as ineffectual as they are, he has them. There are those who can only do their mischief in The Dark. They will shortly be driven into The Dark because they cannot abide The Light. If you carry the light about you, The Dark will flee, just as it does when you turn on the light in a formerly dark room.
