Self discovery does not however run the Universe.
Those who are in power or in command or in charge - have more to think about
than self discovery.
The point of those in charge is that they do NOT think of themselves - they
think of others.
Dwelling on yourself and your own journey and your own voyage of self
discovery is fine if you are not one of the ones responsible for maintaining
the illusion of matter or arranging the synchronicity and masterminding the
intelligent design or giving ideas and thoughts and inspiration and hundreds
of other things.
The point is that one day Brian when you have become the best human you can
possibly be you will then learn that it is thinking of others and caring for
others that are the qualities of the Leaders and Controllers and Masters.
And if you wish to evolve or travel up to the next level - become a God if
you like - then AFTER your voyage of self discovery where you become the
best human you can be - you then learn that you can become another kind of
life form - a God if you like - and then the whole ball game changes as you
learn then what you must do to become the best God. And after you have
become the best God so it goes on - up and up the chain of existence - until
you do finally reach the pure goodness and love and kindness and superior
intelligence and these kind of things.
You will not stay human for ever and ever. You will not bow and revere and
pray to others who you think greater. You must learn to become better so
that others bow and revere and pray to you.
At the moment you do this by your self discovery and you learn to become a
better human. But ultimately you must progress up the chain of existence -
higher and higher. You cannot stay at the low level of human for ever if
you really are a truly good, wise and intelligent person.
As you travel up the ladder - so you then help those lower or further
behind.
Humans are very low and very far behind, and currently they emulate Gods -
who they see as superior beings. But Gods are not that great. There are
far better and more perfect life forms that are higher up the chain of
existence.
You must seek to be greater and better rather than constantly look to others
to lead you and show the way.
You must inherently KNOW the way yourself. Without resorting to texts or
books or teachings of other humans. Only then can you evolve and change -
and maybe become immortal - as you personally KNOW within yourself what is
right or wrong - you have good judgement - you are kind and good and only
then will you rise higher than the very low human existence who are still
idolizing Gods. And Gods are very low down with regard to how high you can
go on the ladder of perfect beings and existence.
So although your journey now must lead you to self discovery and becoming a
better human. This is very early days for what you can become.
Gods also experience self discovery and learning - and they also wish to
improve and become better as people. As you can see from the stories on
Earth about Gods, they are not that great are they!!!! It is easy to
surpass Gods and become better than Gods. But first you must surpass
humans. If you do not know yourself about judgement and universal laws of
life and inherent good behaviour - then no one can teach you. No religion
no human - there is nothing and no one can Earth can teach you what you
should KNOW if you are to transcend the human existence and evolve up to the
next level. You must have your own personal judgement - and you should know
in all situations what to do and how to behave without thinking of "should I
turn the other cheek" or "should I love my enemies" or this kind of tosh.
Yes there would be times for turning the other cheek but equally there are
times not to - and you have to know when and why. There are times for war,
times for peace - there are times for truth, times for lies. You have to
know in all circumstances what to do and how to behave. You must have your
own inherent perfect judgement. And only than will you rise higher than the
human.
Gods are a peculiar breed of people - and you may find Guardians and
Warriors are far better people to revere and emulate than Gods. And if you
do rise higher than the human and the human existence - you may be a Master
or Teacher or Guardian - who knows?
But Gods are two a penny - some even walk on Earth and live amongst you.
Some people you meet in day to day life are Gods.
To humans they view the level of "God" as quite high up - but not so at
all - look at the stories - they are mainly violent or prejudiced. The Gods
make errors and mistakes and do often do not have good judgement.
Set your sights on being "better" than any God and you will not fail to one
day be the Master you would like to be.
And the Universe is a big place - always room for another Master.
And the Universe is only the start of the dimensions and planes and levels
of existence and the absolute diversity of the different kinds of life there
are.
Even the young tortoise must have attention and teaching. Love and
affection. They have their own little thoughts you know.
