I’ll start with one small example and gradually connect several dots. There are many more examples, there’s nothing personal against anyone.
It was obvious that Biden was senile, unless we were blind not to see it and deaf not to hear it. But we were told before that he was not senile and that he was healthy. So what has changed in the last week or so now that Biden is literally being buried and he is now senile? Well, it was allowed. By whom? Actually, it’s not as important as what directly affects us, and what we also can directly influence or even change. So the better question is, where can we see and hear anything about him? Through the media, of course, which is the real medium. This medium can be ( mis-)used by anybody, but we keep forgetting that the interaction is a relationship.
Biden has become obsolete, and now imagine those who decide on the appointment and removal of US presidents how easily they could remove a president. How do they think of us the people? How (un)needy and easily manipulated through the media are we to them? And another thought – how is that possible? We allow it. Again, everything is a two-way relationship.
So what is your relationship with the media? Is it your friend, colleague or something more? Is it like God to you? Are the words of the media holy to you, always true? How submissive are you to the media, or to anyone? Do you expect media or others to tell you what to do? How codependent are you on the media, or anyone else?
It’s quite important to understand our relationships in general because based on my experience and understanding of people who come to me with relationship issues, there are misrecognised opportunities in at least 50% of our relationships! We immediately assume that every person we like or feel a connection to is someone we should have a long-term relationship with, as for one example.
We also assume that others want the same thing, or that it’s okay to be a stick like a tick as soon as we latch onto someone. We assume we can manipulate others, but they can’t manipulate us. In many cases, we don’t realise that we are actually manipulating others, even if we mean well. But if we manipulate others, how can we possibly assume that others will not do the same? How sure are you that you are not manipulating others?
The big problem is that we don’t realise that others think differently, even though we “know” that. We don’t realise that others are really at a different level of maturity and awareness, even though we “know” that. We don’t realise that we could be in a relationship with a great mimic who pretends having feelings or emotions, deep thinking, or that they think at all. Or, we don’t realise we are not that mature. It’s not bad, it’s natural. But until we see through to reality, we are mere believers, believing in our illusion or possibly someone else’s illusion. Once we know, we need no longer just to believe! However, realise that the implementation of our knowing into our lives is a different story and level of knowledge.
Is your (dis)trust in the media/partnership based on your beliefs or on your knowledge, thinking, analysing and verifying? If it’s about your beliefs, then you are essentially creating a false relationship, manipulating that relationship because you may just be pretending that your „partner“ is the best, not taking advantage of you, not lying to you or not telling the (whole) truth. Or it can be exactly the opposite, you may believe that someone/the media is the worst, never tells the truth, etc. I think you can get the dynamic. In the end, you may be the only one in the relationship who is pretending and living in an illusion. Your partner/media/friends do what they do, but can see reality and deal with it?
Surely there is someone behind the media who dictates to the media what „news“ to report, which is currently more of a command of what to think, what to say, or when it is right to follow those commands. If you are a pure believer in the media, you are in love with your own perception of your media (partner/colleague), not with the media itself, and certainly not with the information it conveys. Which will suit you fine until those you have believed hurt you. But it actually won’t be the media/partners who hurt you, nor any information, nor even those who control the media. Waking up to reality hurts…
Let’s move on to the more interesting part of the matter. Are you capable of thinking, any deep thinking? That’s a serious question. I recently saw a video of a young man who was amazed that there are people who have no inner speech, who don’t think for themselves. Well, the amazement was mutual, the non-thinkers don’t understand how others can’t understand them. It’s real, but it’s not news to me. I am really glad that there are young people who are not sleeping like adults and are exploring and sharing their knowledge. That’s another reason why it’s important to have young people and let them be a real part of society. Not all children are immature souls.
Thoughtlessness is the mark of people who are children of the soul, whether they are young or old in age. The evolution of the physical body is similar to the evolution of the soul – everything that exists can only exist on the same or similar basic existential principles in order to exist. Being a child of the soul is not wrong, it is purely natural. At the beginning of life, the soul, however mature, learns cognitive abilities; at the end of life it naturally parts with them (e.g. Biden). Now I’m thinking how funny it is that the EU wants big cognitive tests for old people about their ability to drive a car, but nobody minds a senile gentleman with his finger on the monopoly of power and possible total world destruction. Any thoughts? How about he does not run this show of power…?
I can sense more advanced souls, souls with untapped potential, but with some people I just don’t feel anything at all. Which was confusing at first. But logically, I can’t feel anything unless there’s really nothing to sense, or too little. The whole development of the soul or evolution is just logical and explains a lot. And you don’t have to believe it, you can just be open to that possibility. Anyone can try it out on others, you can talk to others about how they (not) think, how they write and learn, etc. It’s interesting to say the least. You might be surprised how many people with an yet undeveloped soul you can meet, and that will make you (re)think our understanding of existence.
And I also noticed something. People with higher system education (not to be confused with true higher knowledge) are the most stubborn believers who believe that their truth and perception is the best and only correct one. Well, this is logical in terms of their earned reward (title, recognition) for disseminating the communicated and allowed scope of knowledge. You see, either you are intelligent and self-aware enough to get an academic degree without losing yourself and selling out, or you are just like a clever parrot capable of repeating sounds for treats. And I don’t mean that in a bad way, I’m offering a clear metaphor for better understanding. You could also know there’s another way, altogether your way – the harder way but with real rewards. It seems that even young/child souls, those without thoughts can get a master’s degree, which verifies the fact that the education system is only meant to be repeated and distorted like the holy words. The education system is just another belief system in our world. So far.
You see, you can learn to repeat or even imitate that you have the knowledge, but either you have the ability/maturity to apply the knowledge you have learned, to analyse it in depth, or even to achieve wisdom through it, or you don’t have the natural ability yet – and to my knowledge and experience, you cannot pretend this level of maturity. So the best students in schools may not be the smartest, they may be the best parrots and followers, although obviously this is not true for all.
Keep telling and reassuring people that (only) they are the best, the right ones, the smarter ones, or the more mature ones, and they will grow this strong belief that they are better than others. Will they then want to believe someone else who will just suggest to them that reality is different? Likewise, repeat a lie long enough that it is true and we will start to believe it.
People with strong beliefs often shout, point at others, react with emotion, don’t let anything be explained, don’t know how to debate. Which is also pretty logical from the perspective that belief = not-knowing. What would you want to discuss without knowing, right? At the same time, there is a difference between talking about general knowledge and when you are trying to defend your beliefs – which are yours and not other people’s. Do you feel the need to impose your beliefs on others? Or are you willing to discuss, perhaps, your faith and that of others at the same time?
Is any belief bad? Is it bad not to know…? Is it bad to be a child? Isn’t everything just a natural part of life and growing up? The question rather could be, are you ready to grow up, or are you ready to help others to grow up? Are you ready to grow up together? Are you ready to learn and get to knowing together? How about instead of looking for the bad guys, which doesn’t move you any further, being more considerate and listening to others? To look for differences between us is primitive, because there are naturally many differences. The hard part is finding some common goals and interests. It is much harder to find relevant information and perhaps the hardest to gain true and real knowledge.
If you are not, or believe you are not, a childlike soul and you are more mature, why do you expect all other people to think, and therefore act, the same way you do? Even though you see that there are people who don’t understand as well as you do or who can’t think things through, who are just reacting? Have you not really thought about this?
Let’s go deeper. Do you expect children to behave like adults, to think like adults? Do you to act like adults yourself? Of course it’s a decision to behave like an adult, no one forces you to, certainly not in our world which encourages a childlike unconscious state of being that is easy to control. A child will not defend itself. But then what is left for our childlike souls? Why do we let children live in such a confusing world with confusing messages and overwhelmed with empty information? How can they recognise any value? How responsible are we, while perhaps expecting responsibility from everyone else?
In recent years, adult souls are most often silent, letting themselves be oppressed or stuck in particular situations that take away their strength and potential. Or they allow themselves to be „bribed“ to secure a comfortable life and perhaps use their potential to at least meet the financial or power goals of individuals, groups or themselves. But who else is capable of creating and changing reality but the adult, mature souls in our world?
So how can children know that their childhood is not the last step in their development? Where are their role models? In the extremes and mediocrity they perceive through media and politics? In whom do they find support? How can they fight for themselves? How can they see the real possibility of not being manipulated and feeling that they have no choice but to do what others demand and command? How can they not feel so alone in this world?
Do you really not understand why so many of today’s children, even if they are not immature souls, suffer from depression and fall into extremes? Start thinking about yourself – children naturally behave like children, but do you behave like an adult if you are one?
And final questions to ponder. Are you a believer or a seeker? Are you a child who needs adult guidance, or are you an adult who cares (not) for children? Are you doing what is appropriate for your maturity?
Connect the dots, the truth is a puzzle of a billion pieces, but don’t give up. When something big happens in the world, be sure it is just the consequences of the consequences of the consequences at the very least. Nothing is „bad“ when you have knowledge and know how to use it. Belief is important but it is not knowledge, don’t confuse those two completely different states of mind.
