That's the point of incarnating in a body. The distraction of flesh seperates our awareness from spirit so that we can have a pure ignorant start in life, and our journey goes from there.
Life is not a Test.
There is no Pass or Fail.
There is only
Experience.
Experience is the ends and the means.
We don't
have to get it right 'or else'.
A spiritual experience is great, but a physical experience is also.
Some tend to look down on those caught up in the 'traps' of this modern age of TV's, Playstation, fashion, sex, drugs, rock'n'roll, sport, celebrity gossip - but maybe those ignorant 'sheeple' are actually fulfilling the purpose of life more fully than one who rejects such frivolities?
They're here doing what they incarnated for.
Why shouldn't those things (TV, fashion, etc) be enjoyed for what they are? They haven't existed in any other era, maybe we shouldn't miss our opportunity to
experience them, while they last?
I see people giving all kinds of warnings about
having to be enlightened, and raise our vibration, be ready for Maitreya, watch out for demons, beware this, get right now, etc.
Don't worry about it.
It's
all experience.
So we don't 'get it' in this life?
Is everything decided by just
one life?
It's our true self, our higher spirit, that is collecting all these experiences, from multiple lives, and that is the part of us doing all the learning, not this meat bag we're inhabiting - and that higher part of us is eternally secure.
Maybe somebody has already done the enlightened, spiritually wise thing in a prior life? Maybe they're here this time to experience the darker side? or any number of experiences in between - to fill in the gaps our higher self is looking to explore, in order to learn from.
Once our higher self has experienced, and learned, all it needs to 'ascend' (both light and dark) then it will move on to higher realms - by Default.
We don't
need to force anything from our side,
and especially don't need to stress out about our eternal fate.
Even if the climate goes bust.
Even if we run out of oil and the dollar crashes.
Even if the "bad guys" 'win'.
Even if not enough of humanity has achieved 'oneness' before the galactic superwave hits.
Even if we're not personally "51% Good" by '2012'.
Even if alien motherships appear over every capital city then land on the whitehouse lawn promising to give us world peace and high technology, welcoming us into the Galactic Federation of Light! (...but oh no, it's really all a Bluebeam lie and the aliens are programmable life forms created in a gov't lab for the Illuminati 'strong delusion' - to fool even the 'elect', if that were possible...)
It's all just another Experience.
Experience is the only goal of each incarnation.
It's all right.
