How can we make sense of everything which comes our way? How to figure out what’s right and what’s wrong? Following Inner Guidance is the key because the only true solution to this dilemma is a spiritual one.

Over long periods of Earth history, people identified themselves with and followed various authority figures, being much deeper influenced if friends or family had already been following them. It happens in part because we are very social species who love forming groups; another reason is insecurity, a consequence of being disconnected from our Divine roots. In this state of disconnection, being part of a collective feels a lot better than being a loner. It provides a false sense of security.

While authority figures come and go, our desire to belong survives. “Tell me whom you’re following and I’ll tell you whether you’re a friend or a foe” – becomes a slogan, conscious or not.

Sorting people on this basis is like peeing against the wind; it equals being sorted on this very same basis, which leads nowhere on the path of spiritual evolution. Could it be better to not follow anybody, and listen to the Inner Guidance instead? Embracing Inner Guidance allows for a lot of Light to come through. In turn, the Light illuminates remaining dark areas and facilitates their release. The more darkness is released, the more Light enters. Once initiated, this process goes on and on until all conditioning is released and we return to the Source – but don’t hold your breath! – there’s still a long way to go.

With that in mind, let’s see the Good as an abundance of Divine Light, and the Evil as a lack of the latter – both manifested by us, the Divine beings, for the purpose of learning discernment as a way of reconnecting with our Divine roots. Without this contrast between Good and Evil, it’d be very difficult for us to move up the ladder of spiritual evolution. 

Obviously most of us prefer Light but get led astray when searching for it. Not just that, we often end up wandering into truly dark places. The reason for this is a necessity to learn discernment in order to evolve. How can we appreciate the Light without losing it first?   

From my experience, the Good and Evil are usually mixed together, as Evil finds its way even into the most Light-oriented spiritual teachings. It’s this maddening mix which presents a true discernment challenge, and as much as you can respect a particular teacher or a school of thought, in the end it all comes to your personal judgement.

Many so called “enlightened” leaders love teaching discernment, only to impose their own views on the unsuspecting audience. Beware of those! Discernment is the hardest thing to learn; it’s an on-going task of a lifetime, a way of the lonely warrior. However without this thorny road, our spiritual evolution would be impossible.

Our true home is Divine Source. Following the scenario of Divine play, we drift so far away from the Source that we perceive ourselves as separate islands of consciousness, forgetting that it’s all a play. In this state of forgetfulness, we are convinced that whenever things go sour, we must set them right. If we hurt somebody, we feel that we should make amends. If we got ourselves hurt, we may wish to return for vengeance. If we lost our beloved to a rival, we want to come back and try again, hoping for fulfillment of our desires next time around. The list goes on and on. We call this a loop, or a wheel of reincarnation, which is being sustained by the most powerful mind construct called Karma.

But what if we suddenly remembered this whole thing was a play? Imagine the sense of freedom coming out of this realization! The loop of reincarnation then would be broken with no need to return.

– Why is this shit happening to me? Do I have a bad karma?

– Me and my wife fight all the time. It must be some bad karma carried over from past lives.

– That car accident – I knew it was my karma!

Interestingly, these people are probably right – it is karma. Releasing bad karma is indeed very important, but what’s even more important is understanding what karma is. What’s its cause? How did it come to be so deeply rooted in our psyche? When speaking of karma, it’s important to remember that it’s a major mind construct, self-generated to enhance the experience of separation. When seen from this perspective, it’s apparent that we ourselves are both the creator of the problem and the key to its solution. Karma along with other mind constructs should not be taken lightly. These constructs form reality as we know it; there’s no way to make life better without releasing them – but only seeing them for what they are, a self-generated experience, can provide a key for letting them go.

I was brought up in an atheistic culture. No god, no Jesus Christ. Only Sir Charles Darwin and his infamous thesis On the Origin of Species. Survival of the fittest. In addition, there were philosophers of materialism, and of course the Science. Science as an opposite to Religion.

Among all this absurdity, accepting it as the means of fitting in seemed the only solution, and fit I tried for many years. Only to see this system of belief crush one day when realization that the God exists came down as a shock wave.

When the dust settled, sense of not belonging came in. After all, one has to believe in something, right? If the atheism system failed, then the opposite should be true. Religion must the safe heaven for a lonely soul.

Serving one true God in the hope of salvation. Putting this God above all other gods. The rules were tough but what did you expect, an easy life? Trying to fit in, again and again, facing the old absurdity wear a new mask. Hitting the wall of limitations. Thou Shalt Not…

When the Religion system crushed too, it went easier. With each subsequent dissolution of belief, more freedom was coming in. When looking back I realized the best moments of my life were those when belief systems crushed leaving what seemed like vacuum behind – but maybe it wasn’t a vacuum? Maybe it was a not yet recognized simple joy of being?

Why not live in this state forever? What drives us to adopt belief systems instead?

I know the day will come when our mind breaks free from limitations of structured beliefs. That day is when we finally awaken from the Matrix.

Just like in Egypt of old, lightness of heart is still an issue today, and even more so considering constant stress and race for survival. Life is a lot crazier these days and heart is heavier than in those, simpler times.

What if we lived in a land of abundance where soil is rich and crops are plenty, where there are no wars and sheep rests next to a lion? I bet our hearts would be lighter than now.

Let’s then wait till better future arrives… or maybe just give up? I think, neither. Let’s manifest a better life. We all are sparks of Divinity with full power to create what we want.
