Today we revisit an article offering perspectives on Universal Mind, Consciousness Itself, the nature of Maya, Miracles, and Light, and how these impact human existence. These can serve as guides to what IS, whether we perceive it or not. We'll also explore now Soul is different than Spirit, why darkness exists at all, and why we're here.
What you're about to read covers a wide range of material, and a comprehensive study of any two of these areas would be the work of a lifetime. Still, allow your imagination to grasp the vastness of "the Great Work," and enjoy experiencing your greater possibilities as an Eternal generating "bodhichitta." For your renewed consideration, Eternity, Life and Death, and Our Conscious Evolution on Earth Ending Fear and Suffering - Enjoy!

Hi Michelle - Thanks for your praise of the site. "Inspiration of love..." is a great thing to say. The Moon is in Libra on July 20 everywhere in the world. The Moon is in Scorpio from 1:18 am PDT 22 July through 1:29 pm PDT 24 July. July 20 is a very auspicious day to move in.

Dear Robert,
Very interesting articles, all. This is the first place where I've read 2012 won't be a disaster.. certainly a different POV. 2023 and beyond sound as if we'll be in that new mindset (looking forward to it), but one question: do you think we need a crisis, as others suggest, to get us there? i.e. pandemic, nuclear war.
I'd like to think that we don't but my husband keeps telling me since humans have been fighting for many, many thousands of years, it will take something "earth shattering" to shake us out of our current state of being.
What do you think?

Hi Elizabeth - I don't think we need it, but I think the inertia of the present trajectory will inevitably lead to major wreckage. There are so many invested in the current unsustainable system that multiple major breakdowns are already in sight. As I remind all, people usually don't get it together because they see the light; they get it together because they feel the heat. It may very well be "earth-shattering," but whatever is shattered must be shattered so we have space to begin building a better, more sustainable and humane world.
We still have a long way to go before our long term graduation day, and we're breaking out of an era of obsolete polarization, selfishness, and separateness. So our job is to take the long view, get ready to be of useful service to our world as it goes through changes, and be the mid-wives and mid-husbands of an era to come that is glorious in comparison to the present fascistic violent insanity. We are the seed carriers, bridge builders, and renovators of our world, here to carry culture forward despite the disintegration of the dying religious, financial, and political systems.

Well said, Robert. Yes, I think you're right..unfortunately or fortunately, it's hard to say. I don't really want to go through an earth shattering crisis but the current state of the world is such an absolute mess, that we probably have to.
With overpopulation, a lack of resources in many areas, hardened thinking, and being at an environmental tipping point are the ingredients of a major crisis.
Scarey...

Thank you again for such a great trestisse, Robert.... I am constantly in awe of your ability to articulate the abstract infinity! Isn't the Saturn/Neptune opp. great? I am loving this transition, even tho a bit disorienting for us, it is a Divine Invitation to experience the flow of the
Ocean of Love and Mercy......
May all the blessings be with pure Intentions........ (not so scary, but inspiring!).........
With Love, D. } ------*

Hi Elizabeth - We wouldn't have to if we'd all wake up to cooperation and our interdependence, but to reference the Tibetan, it stems from the "heresy of separateness." We are here to build for the future, and maintain healthy ways of living and being while the rest of the illusion crashes from its own excesses. And of course, sing and dance and love and enjoy and celebrate and pull together as the cities crumble into chaos and the oceans and rivers get higher and higher....
Hi Diana - Yes, it is all about experiencing "the flow of the Ocean of Love and Mercy." And of course, your blessing is gratefully accepted in the name of us all. One more wonderful sentiment to turn the Cosmic Prayer Wheel. Here's another: "May all sentient beings have happiness, may all sentient beings have blessings, may all sentient beings have an end to suffering. We dedicate the merits of our lives to the enlightenment and healing of all sentient beings. Aum Mani Padme Hum."

Our INTEGRITY being the KEY..................... (-:

Hi Diana - Integrity is everything. The keywords of our Sun, the core of our light/life, are integration, integral, and integrity. Without our Sun we are truly lost in cosmic darkness, since our Sun transfers the light from Logos.
