The question thus becomes, "how do we break out of this mess?"   The first step has to be to realize we are in it.   The second is to identify the beliefs and behavioral patterns that have us stuck, both individually and collectively.   The third is to begin changing yourself.   When you change the world changes.   Granted, you can give workshops and write articles.   But, ultimately, you have to be the change you seek.   The world doesn't need another ruler.   The world needs you.   The world will change alongside with you be it through modeling or synchronistic occurrences throughout time and space.

 

Will it be a struggle?   Absolutely.   You have thousands of years of conditioning to contend with.   Those patterns of thought are strong.   To jump out of the cesspool you call reality is not going to be easy.   After all, what you think is real is what you think is real.   This is the first trap to move out of.   You have to question reality.   Then, you have to go deep into the dark void of Genesis.   This is the place where you surrender everything.   Yet, in that surrender, there is infinite potential.

 

The question then becomes:   "What can you bring home to us?"
