POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
I BELIEVE WE ALL FEEL THE PERILOUSNESS OF OUR TIMES. WE DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHERE TO TURN. THE WORLD AND THE LIFE FORMS UPON IT ARE IN GRAVE DANGER THROUGH POLLUTION, GREED, STRIFE, TERRORISM AND OTHER PROBLEMS. WE FEEL POWERLESS TO CHANGE ANYTHING GOING ON AROUND US. HOWEVER, BY FOLLOWING THESE SUGGESTIONS, WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH MORE THAN IT WOULD APPEAR:
DAILY PRAYER OF GRATITUDE* (OR AT LEAST FEEL YOUR SOUL’S GRATITUDE TO GOD FOR BEING GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE PHYSICALITY)
REMAIN IN THE PRESENT MOMENT. (FOCUSING WHENEVER YOU CAN ON YOUR BREATHING CAN HELP TO CENTER YOU.)
MONITOR YOUR THOUGHTS (NOT JUDGE THEM BUT SIMPLY BE AWARE OF)
CONCENTRATE ON WHAT YOU WANT (LOVE, COMPASSION, WISDOM)
EXAMINE WHAT COMES UP THAT DISTURBS YOU (HATRED, ANGER, RESENTMENT, GUILT) AND PLACE IT ON THE “SACRIFICIAL ALTAR” (IN YOUR MIND), PUT IT IN GOD’S HANDS AND ASK THAT THESE “OFFERINGS” BE TRANSMUTED INTO SOMETHING USEFUL FOR YOU.
IF THERE IS A PERSON(S) OR SITUATION(S) THAT YOU GIVE A LOT OF NEGATIVE ENERGY TO, SEND LOVING LIGHT TO IT WHEN YOU START TO THINK ABOUT IT. THAT INTERRUPTS YOUR “PROGRAMMED” BEHAVIOR AND GIVES YOU A CHANCE TO SELECT A NEW WAY OF LOOKING AT THIS (AND, HOPEFULLY, LETTING IT GO BY NOT GIVING IT ANY MORE ENERGY).
PRAY TO GOD TO ILLUMINATE YOUR “DARK” (MEANING NOT CONSCIOUSLY AWARE OF) AREAS THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED FOR YOU TO EXPERIENCE THE FULFILLMENT YOU SEEK IN THIS LIFE.
BY DOING THESE THINGS, WE WILL BE ABLE TO EXPERIENCE A MORE FULFILLING LIFE, TO INCREASE OUR CONSCIOUS AWARENESS OF OUR DIRECT RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, TO HELP THE WORLD THROUGH EXAMPLE, AND TO ACTUALLY REDUCE THE NEGATIVE ENERGY IN THE WORLD BY NOT CONTRIBUTING TO IT. IF YOU HATE SOMETHING OR SOMEONE, IT ADDS TO THE ENERGY SUSTAINING HATRED THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT YOU HATE, EVEN AN INJUSTICE, HITLER, ETC. HATE IS HATE. INTOLERANCE IS INTOLERANCE. WHEN WE CLEAN UP OUR OWN HOUSES, WE BECOME MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE IN ACHIEVING OUR GOALS. I’M NOT SAYING IGNORE THE NEGATIVITY IN THE WORLD. IF YOU WANT TO DIRECTLY HELP IN SOME WAY (FOR EXAMPLE, A CHARITABLE ACTIVITY) THEN BY ALL MEANS DO.
IT TAKES A LOT OF PEOPLE’S ENERGY TO SUSTAIN ALL THE EMOTIONS IN THE WORLD, SAVE ONE---LOVE. LOVE HAS ITS OWN “POWER BASE” (GOD). NO OTHER FEELING DOES. THUS, IF WE CLEAN UP OUR OWN BACKYARD, WE ARE WEAKENING THE NEGATIVE ENERGIES IN THE WORLD. WHEN ENOUGH PEOPLE DO THIS, THE EFFECT WILL BE APPARENT AND DRAMATIC.
MAY WE ALL LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO SEE THE DAY WHEN THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY WILL ACTUALLY BE SEEN AS A TURNING POINT TOWARD ENLIGHTENMENT.
