    Lightbulb The First and Last Freedom

    A typical day on Project Avalon or any of these kinds of forums, provides a person with an opportunity to see how much of the human populous functions (at least privileged portion). What we typically see in such places is a spectrum of personality types - many of which remain focused on what is wrong with the world and how those in power control their freedom. Many of these kinds of people believe that they are "awake" and that the world exists in polarities. Many such people remain ignorant of the relative dualities of human perception (one object in relation to another) and absolute realities. They project their perceptions onto all they experience – whether it is first hand or second hand. And so we have the world of Reptilians, the world of the Archons (which has been bastardised from ancient Greek culture and the Gnosticism ), the world of the bastard powers that be, the world of the elite and the masters of humanity, malevolent aliens and the work of the devil. Absent from the reasoning of most humans is the ability to recognise individual, cultural and species archetypes and how we project these onto anything that is not self. We do not like to look within ! This myopic way of human functioning is what has largely created us and them and the sense that there is always something out to get us. Our lack of empathy for our common journey as individual human beings and for the journey of all living beings, is one of our greatest weaknesses and yet ironically is also one of our greatest strengths.

    I would like to remind people that ultimately we are our own worst enemy. Don't think for a minute if you dispatched those in power that you would create a better system of leadership and a world without problems. Until each and every human being develops true self awareness (and not just thinks he has woken up), human beings will continue to create pain and suffering. The idea of human evolution and human progress is a delusion. It may exist on a relative scale but overall, we are not so different to any of our ancestors.

    I have been asked a few times by different people “what did your ET friends show you about the future ?” and for the most part I have been reluctant to say. But I will share one thing. I was shown various intervals in the probable human future. 10,000 years from now humans will still be ignorant, still be stupid, still cause themselves and each other suffering and still have problems. All be it the human world will be a nicer place to live, we as a species will fundamentally remain the same. Until humanity at large looks inwards, there will be now real evolution of our species.

    If you really want to wake up, look inwards and see that you are already free. You do not need a guru or a best selling author to show you the way or to wait for all the conditions of the world to be perfect. There will always be chaos because that is the nature of existence. No matter who is in power, chaos will always reign.

    Why give away your power ???

    YOU control YOU, more than anyone else. To believe otherwise is to imprison yourself needlessly.

    You are free :
    • To be still.
    • To be silent.
    • To recognise that you have a choice.

    • To prepare for dying and death.

    • To try to understand anything that you mind desires to understand.
    • To understand the causes of your suffering.
    • To choose how you experience pain and how you suffer.
    • To believe what you want – whether you express it or not.
    • To choose your own life teacher.
    • To love as you want.
    • To create your own heaven and your own hell.
    • To see separateness and/or wholeness.
    • To see the many and/or the one.
    • To remember the past and imagine the future.

    Hello again, Bright Garlick!
    I am always happy to read your posts or threads.

    You have voiced perfectly what I was saying during the last two years to whoever wanted to hear what I think. I have also had extensive arguments regarding the existence of free will and choice and everything you have mentioned.
    Thank you again!
    It feels good to realize some of us think alike.
