The Soul

Each time a soul fragment is seeded onto this world it signals the potential dawning for a new light. That light is sent to help recalibrate and balance humanity's collective mindset. As the light is released, it reverberates in the collective consciousness to open new gates of perception. Gradually, we awaken to a world where people are more mindful of their eternal nature and better able to commune with beckoning beauty of each soul. 

The aspects of soul that remain beyond the veil of linear consciousness are called the Greater Soul. The masters called the confines of linear consciousness "the veil" because it binds the fulness of a soul's restorative light. Just like a veil worn over your eyes diminishes your ability to accurately witness what transpires before you, the veil of linear consciousness restricts your ability to witness existence from the eternal perspective of your Greater Soul.

Linear consciousness sees all that occurs as proceeding from a serial progression. Every effect is driven by a prior cause. The linear perspective predicates that the more we can account for causes, the more rigidly we can determine a given outcome. Although this perspective has helped revolutionize the many mechanical feats for obtaining dominion over nature, it is dangerously a deterministic model that leaves no room for the soul. Its perspective fuels cultural ideologies that suffocate sovereign choice and creativity. It favours a cold and calculated worldview and a ceaseless appetite for control; but has no place for love.

Beyond the constrains of linear consciousness, notions like past, present and future fold upon themselves to reveal a singularly sovereign current. Along this stream, a future event can profoundly rearrange all that proceeded it, just as past momentum obfuscates that same event from dawning to fruition. A sovereign awareness between these poles of momentum can resolve the friction and generate more unified momentum. Additionally, a consciousness that exists outside the confines of the entire construct can be summoned to help orchestrate trajectories that recalibrate the poles to reduce overall friction for a more fluid expression.  

The Greater Soul sees creation from a vastly different vantage point from where its' fragments reside. It witness unfolding creation from a space that is beyond the refracting confines of time itself. From its' eternal perspective, all of creation is playing out a pattern of perpetual recalibration towards a single realization. The parts of this single instant are perpetually advancing in tandem to more refined eventualities. It is for this reason that the masters have taught, "Creation is restored in the engagement of each instant". 

This "instant" was seeded through a polarizing filter that amplifies a sense of separateness for each soul fragment under its' auspices. The construct provides each fragment an forum to explore its' individualized integrity. Similarly, the filter constrains the Greater Soul's ability overrule the integrity of choice of each proceeding soul fragment. The Greater Soul channels its creative resources to optimize overall cohesion in accordance to the free range awarded to it from the respective' fragments. Its resources extend from the sovereign harmonization of the fragments journeying in the future state of the filtered system to increasingly mitigate the obstructions rooted by more rigid fragments journeying through the filters's past. 

The consciousness of each soul fragment residing in corporeal form is constrained by the levels of polarization of its time. The past pole of the filter amplifies the evolutionary verve body consciousness that propelled organisms compete for survival and evolve through natural selection. The survivalist hum of form grows increasingly pronounced the more you venture into the physical past. The future pole is illuminates a glorified era of soul consciousness where existence is increasingly embrace through a lens of eternal considerations for rendering an enhanced unity. 

A soul fragment journeying in our time is torn between the mechanized perspective that awards the cunning dominion evolutionarily hardwired into the body consciousness and the transcendent impressions of by its' Greater Soul that serves an eternal gestalt. These conditions ensure that you are presented with the choice to dedicate to journey to one of these alternate paths. Do you choose the slow and painful evolutionary model or the path unleashing the flurry of ingenuity of the soul? 

The soul fragment is protected in a halo innocence through early childhood. Presently, our world does not place a premium on innocence. Children are sent to schools where they are assessed as data. They are are taught to excel through trials of competition and achievement. They graduate into societies that award power to the few at the expense of the whole; a world groomed to embrace survivalist models and accumulate greater control. Future leaders of industry and nations are trained to relish struggle and leverage their agendas through "divide and conquer" models for overcoming competing interests. It is a world perpetuating a determined path path of confrontation and marginalization. 

It is no surprise that  the soul fragment seeded in this environment grows increasingly detached. Its ingenuity has little place to shine. It loses an appreciation for its distinct vitality and its' light slowly dims. It surrenders its light in exchange for being awarded a place in society as an interchangeable cog to perpetuate the deterministic wheel. But social roles do not bring happiness, and life starts to tastes of apathy; haunted by the shadow of its eternal self. With the veil bound so tightly around its vision, does it even stand a chance?

Your fragmented soul came to this world with an appetite for eternal expressions, but you were born to a civilization that still leans heavily on reductionistic thinking and competition. Persevering nonetheless, you adapted the best you could to master the survivalist ways of this world. Along this path you watched others awarded for cultivating "controls" to secure their successes. But, somewhere along the way you began to realize that "control" only offers protection from perceived threats, but it cannot substitute lasting happiness. 

"Happiness" is the innate state of your complete soul. You cannot expand to it while leveraged within a fractured state. Instead you must cultivate your inner creative vitality, the expression of your soul's light. As you do, it harmonizes parts of you that seem foreign, but echo ever so familiar. You will realize wholeness, and happiness will ensue.

The masters have related that the blind man learns the path in one of two ways. He either learns the path by smacking into enough walls and discovering the path through pain, or he learns to develop his other senses to travel with ease. The later process of developing innate senses is called  the “short path”, it is mastered as you claim "intimacy" as your guiding staff.  The path of intimacy will reveal eternal perspectives while you are surrounded by a worldview that serves finite considerations. In dedication to this path you will have to delve inward and recover your halo of  innocence and witness the beauty of your soul. This path will empower you to restore the fragments of your soul with their greater source. 

Contemplate the following distinction. Along the your life's journey some lessons you acquired felt like “learning”, while others felt more like “remembering”. There were occasions when you absorbed a lot of ideas that were foreign to your soul. There were other occasions when the lessons felt familiar and natural.

They relate to two different ways for accumulating wisdom. There is a level of wisdom that is born of "understanding". You do not actually ever find it, but rather you taste what it isn't and deduce what it must truly be. There is a higher level of wisdom that is called "knowing". It is a far more intimate and a form of experiential discovery. Its knowledge is alive with vibrancy and you converge to experience it. It is wisdom that is experienced. It kisses your soul and leaves your heart a whole lot bigger. 

Your soul fragment is a creative signature. It is through this creative signature that you can harmonize the other fragments of your soul scattered across time in harmony with its' greater source. Many fragments of your Greater Soul have journey along the past, and others are luminaries in the future. The impressions of all of these journeys are etched eternally onto the essential song of your soul. The path of intimacy will summon your Greater Soul to bolster your heart with the music of eternal considerations and restored cohesion. Through its lens you can uplift the static of past dissonance and draw amplified creative resources to draw closer harmonic solutions. 

You will routinely be presented with the two paths. Society has only prepared you for the cold, long and winding one. It has steadfastly taught you what isn't so that you better deduce what truly is. But, inside you know a shorter way.  It is more romantic because it is filled with mystique, and love is always more romantic in the dark. Exhilarating in its intimacy. it fuels you with a sensation of hastening reunion with every advance you take. The harmony you discover keep you increasingly on a track that is independent of the drama that needed to learn from from contrasts. 

The lessons that feel like "remembering" are so key. These impressions awaken you to the eternality of your essential worth. These prepare you for true intimacy of embracing your divinity eye to eye. The lessons that feel like "remembering" are seeded by the advanced fragments of your soul. These help ripen your will in freedom and unleash the ingenuity of your inner light. You will feel whole and witness the happiness that always was, and celebrate your part in the realization of the greatest orchestration; The True Love Story.

With Great Power

For many who try to think about it, it is very difficult to conceptualize how one individual can truly make a difference. Our world is such a vast and complicated place, how can a single individual truly make a lasting impact? 

When you try to conceptualize this in the western world, it can prove challenging to assess because we are so very immersed in it. It is far more challenging for the mind to be truly objective of a construct that you are immediately a part of. For the sake of illustration, lets focus on a culture that is more foreign to western sensibilities. Lets consider China.

There are over 1 billion Chinese in China. One person in China is going to stand up and declare: "I am an individual, I will be the difference!" 

On the surface level the notion of it seems utterly bombastic. With a civilization that large and complex you have an immense infrastructure and systematic safeguards for maintaining order. Its established system of rule is designed to keep things at the status quo and on track. The law, judiciary, established administration and civil sub-structure of enforcement are all there to tie up and overwhelm any aberration from their normative cultural momentum. At its root the system is not motivated by justice or discovering merit, instead these bodies are rooted in securing the social structure, to stabilize and slow down the gears of change.

In light of such an awesome apparatus, the idea that a single individual can make a lasting impact is very difficult to fathom. How can it be?

To expand to the processes involved in the power of the individual, lets examine it on the more abstract terms of music. You have noticed that you can be listening to a song and then there is one chord that just tugs at your heart and it is different then the pattern of proceeding cords. Everyone that has listened to music has experienced such phenomena. But if you try to reduce and deconstruct it, you will find that these musical chords are just various mathematical sequences of vibration. Still, somehow, experientially that one chord just gets to you, and crumbles the wall around your heart. It feels as if it was the exact chord that you needed to hear at that moment in time. And it was designed along with the proceeding harmonic juxtapositions to just sink into you. Listening to that song, whenever that cord comes, there is a little space, like a little void of absence from the proceeding pattern, a cadence that propels your mind to continue to fill in the sequences of melody even if the music was abruptly turned off. This is how the song catches you; how the song gets into you and truly makes you feel.

This is analogous to the dance between the macro momentum of a culture and the micro momentum of extraordinary souls. There are certain individuals that have the ability to be like that cord that catches and catalyzes new momentum. And just like the musical chords in the analogy, this individual's truth is not necessarily superior to all the other truth preceding it; it is more a matter of variance and readjustment. It is like when lovers dance to and fro to build passion toward an enhanced embrace.

There are individuals that can play such a profoundly altering chord from a heart space that it will cause the collective consciousness to quake. Suddenly with a shake and a shudder, the hearts the world over awaken the next morning more sincere and aware. It happens all the time.

It is this ability that the mystics called "righteous". We pay a lot of attention and are easily distracted by brute physical feats. We laud these acts as impressively heroic, and at times even saintly.  But within the spiritual tradition, "righteousness" has never been weighed in terms of brute force and efficient execution. 

"Righteousness" is something that only very sensitive heart's can detect, because the action is taking place far from the theatre of where the eyes are trained. The seeds of "righteousness" are being sowed upon an entirely different field of perception. 

True "righteousness" is carried by individuals who arise to plant harmonic solutions within the collective consciousness. These are souls that are able to prepare our world for a language that we do not yet speak. Peace remains allusive in these times because our world does not yet know in the language of wholeness. Still, each day there are souls that dedicate themselves to reaching profound states of spiritual intimacy and access the ability to hear the music of a far less primitive time. They commune with the future essence of their soul and immerse themselves in its overall melody. Gradually, they learn to speak in the language of the future wholeness, the harmony that will blossom abundantly in future times of illumination.

These dedicated souls learn the language of wholeness that sounds so foreign to our prevailing cultural sensibilities. The mystics called this "The Sacred Tongue". They explained how the righteous were taught how to speak the language of the sacred tongue that kings, princes and wise men of the court did not know. What was the nature of this language?

Within the sacred tongue every word uttered was aligned with an eternal progression, where everything eventually harmonizes into unity. Someone speaking within the sacred tongue would not emphasize the polarities of the "good" and "evil", instead they would say the "good" and the not yet "good"; or those "spiritually mature" and those "spiritually immature". That was their discipline - as discipline of expression is eminently reflective of the discipline of mindset, a mindset that is rooted in the degree of reverence for the heart's intimacy.

They actually spoke this way, thought this way and lived this way. They did not do these things because they were helplessly naive to the discordant agendas that have historically pervaded over human dignity. They operated this way because rather than being complacent and shackled to the prevailing primitive nature of ills past, they seeded their emancipation at their heart's crescent and revered their soul enough to sovereignty make a difference.

If prevalent consciousness is akin to a holographic program, these dedicated souls freed their hearts enough to hack the system and insert a more elegant code.  So when you wonder how is it that a single soul can make a difference, well, now you are getting the picture. Some souls refine their heart's music until they are free enough to introduce new possibilities into the mainframe of the collective spirit of man. They do not do this with flashy affects and to resounding applause. They do these things amidst the darkest hours, and go against the prevailing streams to plant the seeds that will prevent a savage history from repeating itself again.

You may feel that this all sounds far too outlandish. These individuals, if they even exist, must be quite removed from civilization. They must have sat under a tree chanting epiphanies for forty years, fasting, disciplining their breaths and meditating for years on end. How is it possible for a "normal" person to relate to such an ideal?

Take close these words to heart. What you must grow to understand is that every soul that is here in this time has been presented with ample opportunities throughout their journey to fulfill this very thing.

Our world has for a long time been governed by principles of "justice". Justice is the very bedrock of the evolutionary model of existence. It predicates that over the long haul, the survivors must adapt and grow stronger or more evasive. Thereby, all of natural life evolves linearly as a byproduct of threat, conflict and struggle. It is a mechanistic model, and there is no room for compassion there. This was not the status quo for the soul of man that visits life here from celestial places and heavenly abodes and beyond. These lofty spaces are not partial to evolving through struggle the way the material consciousness of this world does. There, things process in trans-linear fashion, not serially. Their relationship with time and progress is not as rigid as our limited models and rubrics. 

Seek peace with this juxtaposition; the transcendent soul encased within a rigid linear survivalist construct. As you do so, you will begin to envision the possibilities inherent in a single individual. What is it that you can do each day to make all the difference?

Imagine you are introducing a stranger to the ways of this world. You try to explain to that visitor the nature of human suffering. So the visitor says, "take me to a homeless fellow and let me ask him about the last time he cried, the last time he endured suffering". You look at him incredulously, and say, "suffering is not uncommon in our world, oppression is not uncommon in our world, and you needn't seek out the extremities of homelessness to observe it." Oppression, suffering, helplessness, individuals confronting difficulties in this world is not uncommon.

In this world we tend to base the value of things on supply and demand considerations. The price of gold rises, as its availability grows scarce amid demand fueled by uncertain economic terrains. If gold were as common as tin, then the price of gold would sink. If tin would grow scarce, its value too would increase. The spiritual tiers do not work this way. You can have something that is available for everyone that is exceptionally valuable. A way to look at it is that spiritual existence is so essential that its sustenance must remain pervasive, and available to all. As is common from a worldly mindset, when something is pervasive people lose sight of its value. Consider the popular attitude towards air. Everyone understands that air is of fundamental importance to sustainable living. If there were a shortage of air you would find people trading in their assets and trinkets just to have oxygen. We may take air for granted, but we recognize that it is essential and important. In truth, its all valuable, our perspective of prominence shifts in accordance to heightened demand.

From a spiritual standpoint, suffering constitutes a powerful latent asset. It presents great potential value even though it is so pervasive in these times.  When met correctly you can accomplish extraordinary things!

Difficulties, pain and struggle, everyone confronts these in their own way, relative to the impressions of prior experience. What you do with the pull of oppression is what makes all the difference. This goes beyond your own linear field of perception.  This is bigger than just you, and sound words about learning to let go and invite new experiences. This is a powerful secret that affects you, your family, your culture and the great beyond. Here is a helpful analogy for the mechanics of it.

When you are confronting a grave difficulty, how you meet it and embrace it can release a profoundly powerful paradigm shift upon the entire construct. Consider the game of baseball. The pitcher throws the baseball at great velocity towards the batter. The batter swings at the baseball and connect the centre of his bat's barrel with the centre facing of the ball. The bat meets the ball's trajectory of momentum completely, and drives it with a new momentum of its own. The ball will propel a distance in the exact opposite direction. But pay attention to an important variable at play. The faster the pitch, the farther the ball will go when the bat solidly connects with the ball. The swing does not even have to be powerful. If the ball is met completely, it will invert its own course as it is shifted by the momentum correction of the bat. 

There are times when you will question your resolve, "why must this be so hard? Why am I being subjected to such a difficult time?" In those times you will wish you had a baseball coach standing at your side, declaring:

"Time out! This is the big league. Yes, the pitches are very fast here. But even if you just bunt the ball it going to make it up the infield. All you have to do is connect with a solid swing and that ball will soar!"

How do you greet struggle, how do you properly embrace suffering?

Remember that from a spiritual perspective there is a regressive momentum being pulled by a field of justice that is pushing the de-facto evolution of events. Everything gets cooked in the collective soup of divergent streams of vibratory energy in this continuum. Our society's ability to evolve outside the fallout of past injustice, and cyclical tit-for-tat momentum is a byproduct of energetic consciousness that crystallizes in that melting pot. This is a powerful key to peace on earth. To unhook from our linear pendulum of cause and effect of the primitive past, new variables need to be seeded into the continuum. 

As you free your heart and have a date with destiny for struggle and duress. How you choose to embrace the event? By remaining centred and in a space of inner harmony you will shatter the earthly paradigm by introducing something new from the lofty heights of your soul. That space, and the introduction of that new chord and its juxtaposition with the prevalent momentum, has the ability to catch on. That chord ringing from the inner most recesses of your heart has the ability to, in juxtaposition with the proceeding void, ring out loud in ways that shift the momentum of the collective consciousness, and plant the seeds for change. There will be no applause and no one will witness these heroics. But you will feel it like a stroke of graceful sunshine that erupts from your crown, down your shoulders, to the seat of your spine.

Like the waves of a heartbeat, everyone is going to confront ups and downs within this worldly existence. But how you meet those markers, whether they own you, or you own it enough to uplift it back to its' greater source, is all the difference.

Consider the following "diamond" analogy. If you visit a jeweller, you will find that the most sought after cut for a diamond is called the "Ideal Cut". There is a good reason why they cut the diamond in that shape. If the stem of the stone is cut too long, it will not refract the light off its' table with as much brightness and fire. It is set to ideal geometric proportions, with the ideal set of facets to allow the stone to absorb light and reflect brilliance. When they devise new technology to add additional facets, they do not do so because it will look prettier to the eye as you look into it through a jewellers loop. They do so because as the light enters the stone additional calibrated facets are designed to create powerful torque that increasingly amplifies the intensity of the light. It reflects along the reflective tunnel toward the end of the stem increasing and echoing the heightened vibrancy of the initial light. That reflected momentum spins like a torrent downward to the point at the bottom of the stem that appears as a little black dot at the end of a faceted cone. It appears like a little black dot because from the perspective of looking through the table it looks like there is no light there. When the light hits the pit of the stem it bounces back out the table with a far more intensity then it had when it entered. Through this elegant geometry, more reflection and increased torque produces more fire off the table of the stone.

Every aspect of adversity that you experience is all part of rendering that torque. That torque is a byproduct of reincarnated energy patterns that are offshoots of mankind's collective consciousness. We are all interlinked. We each feed off each other's momentum. The patterns reflect off one individual are reflected to another and off another and off another. We are all rooted in the truth of the collective consciousness. We resonate one to another, and prevailing momentum trends. We always have a choice. Do we surrender our freedom to the evolutionary momentum, or do we transcend it?

When confronting adversity. As you suffer from the fallout of the actions of another, and the injustices of the "spiritually immature", that darkness is the bottom of the stem. There is light there, but your perspective cannot see it. You can master embracing that darkness as the bottom from where the light will be bountifully reflected. Your soul's consciousness can be the trigger that releases this. You can sovereignty seed new momentum for how bright that light will shine. You have the choice to greet these markers as oppression, or as the potential for the great creative light of unconditional love and service to the hidden light of benevolence latent within all things. As you absorb the blow of that difficulty and pain and transform it into the fullness of your love this resets past fallout and seeds new solutions to cascade through the collective consciousness. That is how the entire continuum begins to adjust for quantum leaps of intimate advancement. Our world begins to find a harmonic balance because you planted those seeds.

There will be a time when all will be masters in this way, and harmony will be pervasive. That is called "righteousness", it has nothing to do with becoming an Avatar or being a Messiah, it has to do with embracing the true you. It is part of unshackling yourself from the primitive patterns of "divide and conque" and learning how to sovereignty choose. It is about allowing your heart to triumphantly declare, "I choose life! I am tired of catering to the primitive debts of this world. My soul comes from a place that is far beyond it and I will not be governed by it. I will set my soul ablaze with the highest love, and in doing so I will strike a chord that can help unshackle the collective. One by one, we reflect off each other like facets of a precious gem. Eventually its' table that is the consciousness of man will shine brighter than the light that was able to enter into it. All that turns and its discordant torque is all part of the mechanics of driving this unified expression.

Each individual can grow empowered to make a profound difference. Anything that spins one way, when you meet it in a balanced grace will reflect just as powerfully the other way around. You have the ability to reset the table and align a trajectory for a more benevolent future for harmony to reign abounds as never before. It is a singular orchestration. In so many ways it is a love song. It is at the very crux of the love story that is life.
