The New Age versus Religion

The Eternal is veiled by the real.  The Spirit of life is

The Eternal.  Name and form are the real, and by them the Spirit is veiled.

           Upanishads

The first virtue is to restrain the tongue; he approaches nearest to the gods who knows how to be silent, even though he is in the right.

          The Younger Cato

Contentment consisteth not in adding more fuel,

but in taking away some fire.

          Thomas Fuller

The wheel of fortune turns round incessantly, and who can

say to himself, "I shall to-day be uppermost."

           Confucius

New age is just that. As the main stream religions failed to sufficiently control the masses and provide meaningful spiritual food to the masses, the new age phenomenon magically appeared. Once again a similar mindset evolved that lock stepped minds into not thinking as individuals, and even again resulting in a smug superiority and judgement over others that dared think differently.

We will ‘save’ you.  And we may even do it without you knowing or from a distance. But we won’t bomb you with real bombs to ‘save’ you but we will bomb you with Love and Light. Without permission.

Religions in themselves are fully self serving due to sending Love and Light, none of which is asked for. It gives another reason for them to exist instead of honouring the individual.

Being a lightworker really means??

Lisa couldn’t believe one of the greatest paradoxes she witnessed every single day. She saw how savagely people fought. Whether it is with a spouse, a car park space, a football team or a piece of food, they fought with conviction and purpose. Yet when it came to fighting against oppression or for fighting for truth and accountability from leaders, they rolled over and sighed. Surely the grander reasons would be more appropriate. But in matters such as those, they have been trained to either turn the other cheek, or to send love and light.

But in essence, they did not fight. But in many other ways they did.

The very notion of sending Love and Light in its current form horrified Lisa. Now that she saw that free will and free choice were just as powerful laws as Karmic Laws, she noted the underlying thread or Permission. Self knowing permission granted in full knowledge and awareness was the glue to all advancement and healing.

She saw time and time again whole groups despatching Love and Light without any consideration at all to the true divine nature of the event, the soul contracts involved, the permission previously granted by the soul/s which originally allowed the event/sickness/trauma or without ever being asked to do so or by permission of any kind. Akin to praying for our lost brothers and sisters. Even spirit releasement therapy was always performed by the full permission of the wandering/attached entity.

The act of sending Love and Light is indeed extremely powerful and yet if handled incorrectly can result in altering another’s path or choice or worse yet, lead to a rebound against the senders in the form of karmic retribution.

The sending of Love to the Event would be a far wiser option. To bring ease and wisdom to any calamitous event in the full acceptance and understanding that certain forces outside the sender’s understandings have a wider knowledge and plan seemed a far better way to go.

Lisa mused at just how often the L and L senders actually sent love to themselves. Rarely she thought. Possibly they were only misguided crusaders that judged something needed to be fixed because their perceptions of reality told them it was so. Lisa also noted that just how many Lightworkers had deep self love and self worth issues. Far easier to fix something outside of themselves?

Religions of all types are power structures. Those who practice to serve only themselves to gain power over others only end up serving others who also seek to serve themselves and gain power. Ultimately all the players get caught up in an endless loop and the first casualty for them all is freedom. True freedom is achieved by not falling into this trap.

Those who believe in a power (church or corporate) structure and believe in a stronger higher power (priests or bosses) immediately disempower themselves. Therefore, a person who serves others and mixes with like minded people generates a system of balance – everyone has everything needed without control or greed. Lisa was amazed how she herself had played in a game that generated imbalance and needless suffering.

If mankind is truly on the correct spiritual path and aware of the truest path, why does it treat humans, animals and even plants/nature so badly and in full openness? And mankind still prays. And things get worse daily.

Even the best of intentions can lead to traps of the unwary.

Lisa rested. She was now so aware, so in tune with her reality that she just could not believe how she did not see all of these material and spiritual challenges being set upon humanity before.

And now she needed to firstly save herself.
