Our Changing World
by Lou Conjar
We have reached the point in our evolution where a massive change must occur. The "Systems" we have developed will no longer work. A simple look around tells us very clearly that there is little room for "Self" expression in the world today. The majority of people, regardless of which country or culture you wish to examine, have been forced to subjugate or bury their dreams for "the good of the whole".
I submit to you the idea that "the whole" would be better served by encouraging the freedom of self-expression and promoting the growth of creativity among the individuals. The political, social, educational and economic systems we currently have in place no longer work. Those who would disagree point out the seemingly insurmountable evidence that the masses have to be led (and controlled) or chaos will result and, subsequently, the destruction of all that we have worked so hard to build.
At first glance, this argument seems to have some validity. By looking through the daily papers or watching the evening news, you can see the anger, rage and hurt of the people. So it is easy to conclude that, if given more freedom of expression, mass destruction would follow. However, my response to this is that the chaos the leaders so fear is, in fact, already becoming the norm all around the globe. It can not be stopped, nor should it be. I believe that this chaos is the signal that the systems we have in place today are no longer suitable for our evolutionary trek. If we don't allow the people to grow and evolve naturally, then destruction surely will come. However, if we do acknowledge that the old paradigm is no longer valid, and make adjustments to the systems we have in place to allow the individual more freedom to grow, as evolution demands, then we can have a much more orderly and peaceful transition to the new paradigm that is emerging.
The impetus for the coming evolutionary jump is being driven from within. It is being driven by the Divine Power. The transformation of the planet will occur. Our only choice in the matter is in deciding whether we choose to align ourselves with the Divine Force and consciously assist in the transformation or whether we will stubbornly refuse to acknowledge our role in the process, fight it and therefore, suffer unnecessarily through it. Growth often does require a certain degree of pain. We see it in our physical growth and in our psychological growth. Those who are more aware of the process of spiritual unfoldment realize that spiritual growth also requires some painful experiences (see references to Spiritual Emergency and Kundalini Awakening elsewhere in this website). We must confront the Self. This can be incredibly frightening and painful, especially if we do not expect it and are not prepared for it. However, the more we learn about the process, the more we can trust it. The more we understand how to work with it, the less frightening and painful it is. Therefore, it behooves us to learn as much about the process of Spiritual Unfoldment as possible so that we can ease the transformation for ourselves and so that we can assist others when the process forces its way into their waking consciousness.
This website is part of our contribution to help ease the transition to the next level of consciousness. It is our contribution to building the consciousness network which can assist in a smoother, more joyful transformation process. This technology allows us to share information faster and more efficiently than ever before possible. It gives us all a vehicle which allows our voice to be heard. We encourage you to use it. There is a part that only you can play in the dance of life. It is our hope that you, who have been attracted to this site, will choose to participate in the Great Dance by sharing your wisdom and experiences, by asking the questions you need to ask, and by accepting the gifts of wisdom provided by the other members of our on-line community. Visit our on-line "Spiritual Community" often and assist us in providing a meeting place where awakening souls can create the nurturing atmosphere that we all deserve and which can help us grow to our fullest potential.
In addition to providing a forum, or meeting place, for spiritual seekers, we also fully appreciate the fact that it is often much easier to help others if you have your own basic needs taken care of. Otherwise, too much of your time and energy can be spent just trying to make it through the struggles of daily life. Therefore, our site also attempts to provide you with the tools and opportunities that can help you to live a happier life that is more in accordance with your dreams. We can't promise that every tool or opportunity will work for everyone. All of us bring different sub-conscious "baggage" with us that we must let go of in order to be able to live in accordance with our highest ideals or dreams. But we do promise that we will do our best to ensure that only quality products, services and opportunities are offered here. One of our slogans is "Helping You Realize Your Dreams". We truly mean to assist you in any way we can. We encourage you to give us your feedback on how to improve the site and its offerings. We promise that we will continually strive to make Conjar's World a valuable resource on your path to spiritual and personal growth.
