Like most primal people, the ancient
Maya had great wisdom, and yet they did not have it all.
This is because it is never meant for one people to have
total enlightenment alone. It is meant for all of humanity
to receive this ultimate development.
As wise as the Maya were in astronomy, like all primal
people, they still believed in scarcity and lack. They were
not aware of their current ability to Co-Create reality with
God, which is why they had such a despotic priesthood. They
had many wars over these beliefs, all grounded in material
limitations. Ultimately they manifested their own starvation
and lack. This happened because they themselves are
Co-Creators of reality with God, as are all the other
members of humanity. They created their own ultimate demise.
They were not unlike many other primal people who believed
in sacrifices, whether they are human, animal, or vegetable.
The sacrifices of Cain and Able to their God reflect similar
types of concepts. The sacrifice of Christ on the cross of
Calvary is another example but with a twist. His sacrifice
was both human and divine. As Dr. Carl Jung noted in primal
peoples, in the beginning mankind died for God, and in post
Christian times God had died for mankind. This event marked
a developmental change in human consciousness worldwide for
those who could receive it. Not everyone grows spiritually
at the same rate of speed.
Originally, only the initiates and high priests knew that
all of humanity Co-Created reality with God, especially here
on Earth. It was their job to keep this knowledge from us
until we matured enough to handle it without destroying each
other. The suppression of this fact by orthodox religions
was part of the reason for their existence. They were
supposed to help the common person safely integrate their
Co-Creative powers, unconsciously and collectively, through
liturgy, ritual, and ceremony. This is the real purpose of
orthodox religion. However, as human organizing
institutions, they were not meant to last forever. In fact,
they were eventually supposed to lead us to spiritual
self-reliance and community simultaneously. They are
apparently now failing to fulfill their final mission, as
many now seem to exist for themselves as institutions,
rather than caretakers of humanity.
Legend tells us that prior to our current historical era,
there was an Atlantean era of existence. In that era,
humanity was supposedly more conscious of this ability to
Co-Create, and they were dominated by a powerful priesthood
who were well-practiced in the art of Co-Creation.
Eventually, they destroyed themselves with thought power,
and life-force power. It is hard to say just how true this
is. Furthermore, the legend tells us that the fall of
humanity into blind materialism was our punishment for such
abuse. We became strangers in a strange land of materialism.
We became alienated and afraid in a world we did not know
was our own creation. However, this Atlantean adventure does
not have to be literally true to make the point that, when
it comes to wielding real creative power, we can be like
children playing with a box of matches.
We have now reached the point where, like the Maya or the
Atlanteans, we might destroy ourselves because of our
undoubting belief in materialism. Thus, we collectively
Co-Create the reality of materialism and its implication of
scarcity and lack. We fight wars over oil, food, and
territory. These are our creations. We are the gods of this
planet Earth. We prove to ourselves everyday, with self
fulfilling creations, just how true to reality materialism
is.
With the development of the implications of quantum physics,
we can no longer suppress our true nature, without creating
mutual annihilation through nuclear war or biological
warfare. Yes, because of the lack of knowledge about our
true nature, we are unconsciously manifesting our
Materialistic Dream/Nightmare with its demons of scarcity
and war. We are still Co-Creating materialistic ways to
annihilate each other. This is why the orthodox religions,
scientific materialism, greedy capitalism, socialism,
communism, and every other material based “isms” are
failing.
The failure of these systems is accelerating. Old solutions
are not working. Wars do not make us money anymore. The
“guns for butter” mentality of WWII by the military complex
is no longer ringing true. Statements like “greed is good”
by blind and twisted capitalists are now being shown to be
false. Like the Mayan, these foolish “platitudes” will cost
us our own security and in a deeper sense our very soul.
Most religions, including the Maya, foresee apocalyptic type
visions at the culmination of our development as a species.
Yes, you can find it in certain forms of Buddhism, Hinduism,
Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. Dr. Carl Jung protested
against this, believing that humanity could avoid such a
catastrophe through awareness of our deep, collective
unconscious tendencies.
Even if the world as a whole be nothing more than a dream,
the suffering within the soul of our species, trapped within
that endless dream like prison, is still considered very
real by the Buddhist. Some suffering is beneficial and helps
us to correct our mistakes, but much of our current
suffering is unnecessary, and is due to our ignorance. This
latter type of suffering is self-perpetuating and
destructive. It turns our true dream of Eden into a
Nightmare.
When we can accept our destiny to become conscious
Co-Creators with God and the other gods, we can start to
Co-Create for the benefit of others. We can then be as the
Buddhist Bodhisattvas who seek enlightenment and Nirvana for
the sake of all sentient life, and not for just themselves.
Since even the minerals have a form of consciousness, this
means all of creation must be redeemed from suffering. All
of creation is sentient.
Begin today to seek enlightenment for the sake of all
others. Do not worry about how to obtain it. All this will
be given to you as you need it. Right motivation will lead
to right action. As the Masters use to say, “The act of
meditation will teach you how to meditate.” It is my
greatest hope, that out of being able to manifest for
yourself what you choose for your life, you will realize
that not only is there an endless supply of whatever you
want, but that you will see the greater purpose as to why
God created us as Gods in His/Her Image.
It is my hope that by choice you will choose the path that
leads to light. It is my hope that when you reach full
enlightenment, and you will reach it, that you choose to be
a Buddha of Compassion. It is my belief and hope, that you
will forsake Nirvana/Heaven and choose to return to Earth
for the sake of all those who may still be suffering here
unnecessarily. Let us Co-Create an Apocalypse of Compassion
and Redemption together rather then one of war and
suffering. The choice is now yours. You are at the age of
accountability. I believe in you. Believe in yourself. Let
the spiritual sun shine from your Higher Self into your
heart and out to others. Finally, do not judge, just accept,
and above all things, be kind. This is truly The Gospel of
Co-Creation.
