A very timely meditation, especially in light of the recent election and the possibility for positive change which remains to be seen; but the Deep State and globalist psychopaths will not be distracted from their overall agenda which is always about power, control and manipulation of the masses, including their leaders; the lessons from the Garden were never learned because it was about "living responsibly before God" (Bonhoeffer); our inheritance from Adam and Eve was, indeed, the failure to accept the gift of God's creation and to allow human hubris to replace the Creator's love and Divine will; so, yes it is a spiritual battle to reach dharma but it's always the same individual choice as was offered Adam and Eve; " I am now giving you the choice between life and death, between God's blessing and God's curse, and I call heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Choose life." (Deuteronomy 30:19)
What lies in your shaking hand as you cross over the ravine is the original Cosmic Egg of creation. If you squeeze too hard the egg will crack and its priceless contents ooze down into the gulf below. But if you steady your arm and clear your mind, you will make safe passage over to the other side and prevent the world from being destroyed. It is everyone's journey and a test each person must now undergo.
Interesting! The idea of Unity has puzzled me for a long time, and it is very complex, but maybe not very complicated. As far as I can tell, Oneness' is a New Age concept, implying a rejction of 'The Other', or anything 'outside' us - also aspiring to unite the world's religions (ecumenism) with humans at the center, as themselves 'god', or at least 'god-like, that means, in no need for any other/external force, such as a Creator. There is supposedly no separation, and no one above us. Nevertheless, a potential 'one world religion', I believe, would not accept anything to do with Satanism or Luciferianism in its fold. That point I find crucial. In other words, when you write about unity between us, the people, you imply uniting against another force, which is evil, including people doing evil, and so there is duality anyway, however you turn and twist the picture. That makes sense to me.
For reference, see Carl Teichrib (2018): 'GAME OF GODS - The Temple of Man in the Age of Re-enchantment' (552 pages).
So true there is more light now than any time before and we can see the atrocities but we can’t acknowledge them if they blend so well in society that it’s now accepted as normal. We need to remember our origins and out divine purpose to acknowledge and eradicate the evil
For far too many years Americans have stewed in silence about the misconduct of government. "You can't fight city hall." Damn, it's our civic duty as patriotic Americans to ride herd over the government. When you remain silent, you are giving consent. We need to speak out, loudly and often. Do not get lulled into silence when Trump takes over the reins. At best, he is an imperfect being, giving in to his ego, and often influenced by the wrong people. The influence of the bankers cabal runs wide and deep. Beware. Always be on alert and ready to act. It is better to be proactive than reactive. Be alert for those that smile at you and make promises to you. You need to be aware of everything around you. But, don't be vicious or vindictive. We will survive only by being kind, showing a little love.
Well said, Dean. One of my biggest realizations was that religions are all Stockholm syndromes. We have yet to understand or live out the saying of the Gospel of John's Jesus: "The time will come when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem but in Spirit and in Truth, for that is the worship the Father desires." (And, "worship" is probably a bad translation, I'll add, as God seeks no worship nor worshippers but sons and daughters.)
I am reading your 'The Grateful Unrich' during my lunch breaks (relishing it, btw) and the Seagrave's 'Gold Warriors' in the evenings - perhaps the most sobering book I've read. This exerpt of yours is exactly what I needed this morning, Dean.
The greatest mis - take is the belief that the spiritual expansion of the individual will somehow effect the nature and progression of the external world.
A view shared by both the " white and black hats".
Duality creation is complete ( and why some get a glimpse of the so called future ).
Each individual will transcend such duality/ illusion on the journey to Know Thyself .
This is one of your most profound chapters, Dean. I will tip you a nod in paradise. xx

Exactly. Well said. “Action springs not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility.” (Bonhoeffer)

Krishnamurti wrote/spoke the truth, as do you.
Incremental thanks.
