A Way Forward

by

By: Seeker
There is an advantage to seeking a more spiritual path for ourselves. It is an advantage the Religions cannot offer and one the Corporations and Governments cannot take from us – yet…

Over and again we have been told that to find our path in the spiritual world we must make a choice and then follow it. That it is a personal way, a private contact between us and the Creator. So, until they perfect the weapons of enforced mind-control, we can make our way forward in spite of all the ways they try to stop us.

You don’t have to watch the advertisements, you don’t have to consume exorbitant amounts of goods to have a ‘good’ life or keep up with those around. There is no requirement in Life that says everyone around you has to think of you as ‘one of us’ so you are actually free to do as you wish.

The condemnation of our fellows is one of the hardest things to overcome. It is difficult to live your life and not care about the opinions of others. It is one of the most powerful weapons in the hands of those who would control us. All they need do is show the general population that what we do is not ‘normal’ and those around us will put on pressure to try to get us back ‘into the fold’ that they are in.

It’s like a prison where the prisoners do the guard duty. Even when those walking the walls around us all can see the uselessness of the way we are going, when they will tell you how miserable their life is making them and the troubles they have on a daily basis, they will continue to enforce the pressure on you to conform to the ‘normal’ life.

It is hard to stand against such pressure, especially when the conformity urge has been enforced since we began school.

The good news is, you can begin your journey to finding yourself in ways that the outsiders cannot see until it is too late to prevent you gaining the strength, finding the wisdom and following the path to a better life.
