Every thing in this World goes awry; how can I remedy the situation?
Everybody says that, everybody asks that question. Listening to the daily news, we are sometimes under the impression that we have an old TV, since it is always repeating the same Aold@ news. I have been living for over half a century and all I hear are war news, right and left, north and south. I do realize that it is not always the same thing: I note there is an escalation in crimes as in violence done to people and to nations.
We often ask why people can=t make peace amongst themselves. Disciples of a given religious organization fight and take up arms against one another. Members of an army revolt against established authority. Dictators want more power, killing, torturing, blackmailing and threatening their fellow citizens until they get it. B In a word, it is always Ame, myself and I@, while forgetting other peoples= needs. Do we believe we are more important than our neighbours?
A song by one of our composers, a few years ago, said, Apeace starts with we, in my heart@. So the first question to ask is: Am I at peace with myself? There are only two possible answers to that question: Yes or no.
If the answer is Ano@, we will have to work on ourselves. What does that mean? That means that we will have to look ourselves in the eye, examine every last detail, rectify our thoughts, learn to recognize our behaviour in any given situation presenting itself to us; then, we will have to analyze and see if our ways of acting conform to social ethics or God=s, for instance, if we aim to please and become His child again.
After an analysis, we will have to make a stand. Is all that we are living in agreement with our beliefs? Do we want to change? Are we ready to make the necessary efforts?
Again there can be only two answers: Yes or no.
Let's say our answer is yes. Then, the real work begins, for even if our head says yes, even if our analyses puts us in direct contact with our inner impulses, it is not necessary that the beast in us will let us go. That beast, the ego as some call it, will not want to change. It will put all sorts of ideas in our head so that we do not start on our study and change. If we do ignore the ego's injunctions, we may develop physical ills for, when we start cleaning ourselves, all kinds of toxins will come out, annoying us from our former perfect life. But, we must persevere; and reach the goal we have set ourselves.
It is also possible that we go through change like a bullet through butter; so much the better! I do not wish anybody to live through the agonies of change. But then again, change makes for a wonderful life with lots of happenings. Often it is the people who opted for change who will be at peace with themselves. These people will join those who said yes to the first question. Together they will express the Light of their being and be able to share their knowledge.
But how can we accomplish this? Prayer is a great help; firstly, to centre in on ourselves, to focus our energy and give it direction. If we pray in groups, the power of each individual=s energy is heightened and has more weight, thus uniting people more firmly. Next, common centres of interest can be formed for people to jointly discover the best way for them, singly or in groups, to spread their energy, and make groups in need profit whether from energy, solutions or food.
Some may laugh at this approach saying, ACome on, prayer never put any bread on the table@. This is a big mistake, I say. One must not doubt the power of prayer. Recently, a friend was telling me how she was distressed with the evil recurring on the earth, with violence, stupidity and crimes against Humanity and children. She went to pray, Aso that God would do something@. Her prayer was heard. She had this vision: AEvery time we pray to God, He does something to alleviate misery and a child, somewhere on earth, receives a piece of bread@.
Each time we pray, somewhere, something changes. We do not have to know who or what changes. Our work is to change; to pray and be satisfied in knowing: AYes, God is at work@. When we reach a certain level in consciousness, we naturally transmit a certain type of vibration that is received by people who think as we do. In turn, they send out telepathic messages to those who are in a position to give that piece of bread, to heal that wound, to open one=s arms to someone, to console, to bring some well-being into some ones life and to love.
