Free Will and Free Choice
For in and out, above, about, below,
'Tis nothing but a Magic Shadow-show,
Play'd in a Box whose Candle is the Sun,
Round which we Phantom Figures come and go.
Omar Khayyam

Four thousand volumes of metaphysics will not teach us what
the soul is.
Voltaire
All that we are is the result of what we have thought:
it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our
thoughts. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought,
pain follows him, as the wheel follows the foot of the ox
that draws the carriage.
Dhammapada
It was apparent early in Lisa’s Awakening that Free Will and Free Choice were
definite gifts, for it was obvious that every cunning plan and action by someone
or ‘something’ was amassed to stop these divine and personally uplifting tools.
Everything from emotional mayhem through to self doubts seemed aimed to the
extent that people were so weary and tired that the possibility of even having
choice to improve their lives was hidden from them.
And these gifts were not only suppressed but taken. They were taken by trickery and deceit. And not all of the taking is by Earth based men as Lisa had soon discovered.
Lisa knew in her deepest being that mankind is not and never was designed to follow or obey others agendas. The gift of a strong mind and full reasoning powers along with innate sense of what is right and fair seemed to be just a dream. And daily, the perceptions of authority figures were used to control thousands to commit unspeakable and violent acts against fellow humans under the cloaks of patriotism or ‘just following orders’.
True free will involves finding out for yourself what is true or not to the best of your ability. This results in better retaining of everything learned and avoids being spoon fed into believing things that aren’t necessarily true. You earn your own power. Sure ones reality will change as new and better information comes to light however one will still be in ones own power as the changes occur.
In addition to gaining the best knowledge on earth and spiritual situations, the search for true knowledge concerning emotions, love and goodness and hate and darkness often exposes darkness disguised as good and spiritual. How often have world leaders cloaked their intentions to wage war and destroy civil liberties behind lies, freedom, god or some noble cause? And the effort of gaining free will by gaining knowledge certainly pays huge dividends by not foolishly acting upon just the spoken words of others. Free will needs knowledge in order to work.
Examples of just how free will was being lost abounded everywhere. The first clues Lisa saw of this was the subtle exchange of doing something for expectation of benefit or reward.
Time again she saw people pray to gods and angels for salvation or problem solving yet each time they did this, they gave full and tacit permission for these spiritual beings to take control of an area of their life and fix it. They abrogated their own responsibility, effort, inner choices to solve and looked outside of their spiritual worth for salvation. And to these ‘entities’, once any type of permission is bequeathed, prayed for or granted then it becomes extremely difficult to regain it by the human.
And once the prayer has been offered, life doesn’t improve. The problems don’t magically go away. Always, in the long term, the situations get worse. And it is only at the stage that circumstances become nearly unbearable do the humans stubbornly and with determination take the necessary steps to resolve their lives. Under their own power. Under their own effort and direction. And that is when resolutions manifest.
But who or what are these angels or gods or guides? Lisa smiled at the numbers of people who had Indian Chief Guides, Chinese guides or Tibetan Lama guides. To Lisa, there were just not enough of these guides to go around. And even in her own life, she had seen cruelty and evil cloaked behind warm smiles and handshakes. Who was to say spirit realm was any different in its cunning?
The term ‘As Above, So Below’ took on a clearer meaning. Deception wasn’t limited to the earthly realm.
Lisa read of many times in history that when apparitions appeared to the masses, there was always an exchange – a price. Build me this! Build me a church or temple! And the people obeyed in the expectation of some benefit. Just as the office worker will give away free will or even morals at the orders of a superior, the same giving away by the masses occurs to a perceived angel/god (authority figure). The god/angel/manager was always elevated in their minds to a position of superiority over them. They in themselves became the lesser.
They ceased to believe in or use their own inner spiritual power and connection to the All that Is.
Exit free will and free choice.
And true free will and choices serving the best interests of anyone cannot be exercised without all the necessary knowledge as to how and why things are (or how they seem). The more knowledge a person has, the greater the level of free will/choice. And the greater the free will/choice a person has, the greater the freedom. Once again, Lisa marvelled at how simple and in plain view the game was being played against mankind. But not on just a material 3D level, but also on the ‘spiritual plane’ level also.
And Lisa had always been told that god and the spirit realms were eternal and timeless. They are not constrained by time. So obviously, an entity that appeared in a time of history could just as easily reappear at many differing times.
Once again Lisa’s mind was drawn back to what was occurring in her world. She noted whole countries where the people appeared to be asleep. And she then linked the connection of being asleep to their chronic lack of knowledge about anything or the goings-on around them. They have no clue as to their own 3D reality, so it becomes nearly impossible for them to see with any form of clarity the spiritual realms that exist especially within themselves. Only knowledge can correct and put this right yet knowledge is being purposely and intentionally being withheld from them only to be replaced by mind dulling emotional distraction.
But what really is Reality Lisa pondered. What really is Real?
The closest Lisa could determine for now was that each and every person has a differing view and perception of reality. Everyone has seen the illusionist at work tricking our minds into thinking something is true yet it is not. We all know our eyes, minds and senses can be tricked and sadly at times manipulated by others without our conscious knowing. That would then mean six billion souls living on earth have six billion realities based on their experiences, beliefs and perceptions.
And Lisa clearly saw that one of the most disempowering pastimes adopted by humanity in general was wishful thinking. The practice dwells in pretend realms and reinforces the notion of lack. And the minds begin to hook firmly into materialistic wishing and wanting thus firmly distancing the thoughts from matters of spirit and soul purpose. And the result is being disempowered due to there never being enough of that being wished for. Free will, free choice and responsibility from within are overlayed by growing episodes of dream state wishful thinking. The very notion of being a free thinker, being separated from the herd is seductively replaced with being fully in the herd. Instead of fully being within a space of spirit connection and creation, their wishing firmly put them outside of it. They swapped BEING with being a part of something else.
Lisa now clearly saw the perils now facing All of humanity. Our free will choices do and will have a direct impact on our future physical and spiritual beings and life. It is the conscious seeking of awareness and truth/knowledge in all things that will enable the best outcomes to manifest. All and every choice made must be free of fear whether implanted by new age/religion/government or corporate. No fear about what others may say or think can be a part of any of our choices. Lisa had seen more than enough results caused by global herd driven choices by consensus. It was killing the very planet she existed on.
And Lisa knew in her heart that everything that in her natural realm had to be allowed to exist and it was then up to all of mankind to find its place within it. She began to use her love of nature to train her thinking so she could love herself and life everywhere without any fears or judgements. Her unconditional love of nature taught her peaceful and true love for another.
And she chose not to fall in love with the man made illusion of reality, but she chose to love what truly is. It was not for her to embrace and love an illusion.
