NEWS, THOUGHTS AND COMMENTS
There seems to be a real problem in relation to authority at this current time, either because there is too much of it and we are being deprived of our rights or because there is not enough and people can do more or less what they want with impunity. The old belief systems, controls and social structures are breaking down and need to. Nothing yet has evolved that can replace them. This is because they cannot be replaced by more of the same. A shift in the collective level of human consciousness is absolutely essential if we are to find a viable way through the current crisis and this can only happen if enough individuals work to bring it about.
This shift, if it is to come, must begin with you and me, with the people who want a real and lasting change and begin to see how we can bring it about. I doubt that people are deliberately setting out to destroy society and choosing to take refuge in gross materialism. Nor does anyone really want to look forward to a future in which nothing lasts, especially not relationships, which seem to break down as fast as they are formed. But with the old controls all but gone, we are at the mercy of our inner demons. Our fears, anxieties, hopes and dreads drive us into uncharted territories and we hardly know how to cope. There is a real feeling of loss of individual power. The vulnerability and confusion that this creates hides behind anger, aggression and denial, which may for a moment delude us into believing that we are still strong and in control.
True authority must come from within.
There is much that we can do to bring about a real transformation in our own lives and the collective destiny of the human race. The way is open to all who are prepared to see things differently, and to re-evaluate who and what we really are and, more importantly, what we might become.
My contacts, both here and elsewhere, indicate that we face an interesting and potentially difficult time. An increase in the energetic field affecting the planet and everything on it brings with it greater potential and although this energy is backed and supported by Being and Consciousness it appears to be neutral or even negative when it meets vehicles (people) who are not able to earth it effectively. In short it can kill as easily as it can cure. Ideally it will be used creatively to heal, to teach and to bind the creation together in a meaningful, cohesive and conscious whole, but where people are ill prepared it can degenerate into conflict; as we see demonstrated daily.
THE NEW ENERGY
The energy manifests through each individual, regardless of our level of development. It wells up from the Centre-of-Being around which each of us is formed. In some of us this will manifest as an unaccountable upsurge of joy and purpose, in others it will cause feelings of insecurity and even dread, giving rise to confusion and aggression. Even joy can be a problem when it is taken over by the Ego, thereby stimulating the manic activity that occurs wherever humility and understanding are scarce. Some might just feel overwhelmed and go into reverse or simply shut down. We need to learn how to connect with this force in such a way that we can work with it consciously and creatively. Pious hopes and holy words are not enough. The adjustments need to be practical and thorough if we are to take the situation at all seriously.
TOWARDS THE DEEP CENTRE
Towards the end of this year, I will be offering a series of day courses, at intervals of roughly six weeks, under the general title of ‘Towards the Deep Centre’. These will present many different exercises and techniques through which we will learn to recognise the energy in question and work with it directly and consciously. We will see how it can be engaged at different levels, each with its own potential and how the body can turn itself into a reliable conduit once other aspects are in place. Bringing greater awareness into the body is a vital aspect of this work. We will work individually, in pairs and with the group as a whole to achieve this. The size of each group will be limited as each participant will need space in which to work.
The Deep Centre Energy relates closely to the energy of the Zero Point Field and the Holographic Creation that we have been giving our attention to on various occasions recently. Einstein demonstrated that energy and mass, time and space were all inter-related but it was Bohm who indicated that the innate sense of order and relationship that could be observed to underpin the whole creation had to be a manifestation of consciousness. In certain quarters a great deal of attention is being given to this underlying field of energy/consciousness. This work presages the next huge development in human consciousness and needs to be addressed now if we are not to descend collectively into greater chaos.
