Written for a teenager in despair (like the one I once was)
"Don't worry. Be happy." - Meher Baba.
Everything seems urgent when you're young. Without being
condescending, you haven't really waited years for things to improve in the
grand scheme of things. You're just breaking into adulthood and there are so
many emotions, hormones and changes flying around. It's like a rebirth, birth
of the individual adult you. Suffering kind of saves us from the clutches of
the ego and enables us to grow stronger and wiser with time. Some people go
through life like caterpillars and we're told they're the lucky ones for whom
things appear to work out. On a soul level, which is all that's real, no
they're not. They've got crisis yet to come. If you're going through hell keep
going (Winston Churchill said that). Because if you’re in the dark chrysalis phase
you're kind of lucky in that you're closer to waking up from the illusion that
we are just these physical bodies munching on cabbage leaves. Closer to
breaking free from the confines of the ego mind. Closer to finding the eternal
peace, joy and love that are the only true Reality. Feel in your heart. Get the
momentum going. Deeper and deeper. The real you is in there somewhere. The
Light of Love.
No one tells us the meaning of life. We have to find it
ourselves. But if you want a little heads up (if not, read no further!).....This
planet is a karmic school and we are graduating from initiations that have
lasted many lifetimes. The lessons are hard but worthwhile not least because we
are waking up against the odds and with each step our emotions are charging the
Earth's new magnetic grid and influencing others, making it possible for others
to find their way. We are Indigo wayshowers, leading the way. It's important to
see the big picture. Russell Brand's got it now! It's true, by turning within,
meditating daily, one can immerse oneself in that magical energy that is
divine. The authorities don't want us to know all of this hence the crappy
education system and the rest!
But it's important to develop a spiritual practice. Yoga and
tai chi are powerful grounding, centring and balancing tools. People resort to
taking prescription drugs because they're encourages to look for solutions
outside of themselves but that is death. The very source of life is within us
waiting to be rediscovered so it can shine in this world. Bit-by-bit we shall
make a heaven on earth. There is a new global economy just around the corner
which will make things easier so ignore the state of the world. The future is
nowhere near as bleak as it looks. Try to feel through everything. That's how
we release negative emotions. It's all just stuff we've brought with us from
other lives when we denied them, projected them, escaped from them, fearing to
face ourselves. So it's all piled up through much foolishness, otherwise known
as fear. The first 13 years of life are largely there to set us up for the
personality and experience we need in order to release it all, much of it being
karmic of course.
Osho said that the two most important words are ‘Let go.’ We
have to relearn how to relax because this world takes us away from, or out of,
our selves. We were naturally relaxed when we were very young and we never held
on to emotions. We just released them as they surfaced. We need to breathe more
deeply which is more natural and connects us to our higher selves. We need to
drink more water because that helps to release emotions. We need to listen to
our hearts because that is where the truth resides. And, oh yeah, as a little
girl once told Kurt Cobain at a family gathering when someone had asked how we
should live or something: ‘I think people should concentrate more.’ In other
words, we must become more conscious, more aware and focused. No one can afford
to go about their lives on automatic pilot anymore. Our world is being charged
with higher energies and they are not going to relent. Gradually, density will
be replaced with lightness and en-lighten-ment. The days of people living from
their subconscious are nigh.
One cannot go through the whole of one’s life without
knowing frustration, anger and despair. Yet, these shall pass also. We need the
contrast between dark and light to really embrace and awakening back to our
true nature. Never underestimate the power of compassion for ourselves and
others, forgiveness, gratitude, appreciation, stillness and patience because
they help to align us with what is Real…………………………………….
Love and blessings,
Antraeus
p.s. Also, don't underestimate the power of a Full Moon and Mercury Retrograde to fuck things up for a little while!
