The Final Test Success Gurus Let You Discover On Your Own
BRILLIANT MOMENT
If you’re serious about turning the gifts you were endowed with at birth into meaning and purpose, you’re going to have to break your addiction to listening to your thoughts by turning to the power and wisdom of the heart.
“You cannot just exist in this life. You have got to try to live. If you’re waking up thinking there has got to be more to your life than it is, believe in your heart of hearts, it is. But to get to that life . . .”
Whether you’re ready to ditch that slavery-by-consent job to start a business, end your unhealthy relationship with junk food, finally write that book, or cut the cord to your addiction to your current life, as Steve Harvey goes on to say, “You’ve got to jump.”
And it really is about overcoming your addiction to the comfort your current life is affording you, even if you’re miserable.
“Every next level of your life will demand a different you.” ~ Leonardo DiCaprio
We’re not talking about material security, though that’s a byproduct. It’s the illusion of personal identity you’ve carved out for yourself that you can’t let go.
According to author Marianne Williamson, “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.” She says, “It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.”
Williamson got it partially right. But, our deepest fear is actually letting go of who we think we are because it’s comfortable—good or bad. We fear it more than being the ideal “you” sitting in your mind’s eye right now.
ARE YOU ADDICTED TO YOU?
You know how to do the current you front and back, right?
Whether slowing sinking into depression every Sunday night; motivating your sales team; declaring nothing goes your way, or making that luxury car payment every month—you’ve proven you can do it, and you do it well.
We’re all addicted. In Western society, the dissonance between our minds and what’s in our hearts is numbing.
We self-medicate daily with food, social media, drugs, even more materialism, sex, technology—or worse, we take it out on others.
Addiction to a false sense of security will keep you numb and from making that jump from just existing to really living every single time.
See the conflict? Moreover, can you feel the conflict?
It’s time to dive into that conflict and use it to make magic in your life.
WORKING THE MAGIC
If you’re serious about turning the gifts you were endowed with at birth into meaning and purpose, you’re going to have to break your addiction to listening to your thoughts by turning to the power and wisdom of the heart.
It starts by asking, “If I could ditch my life and become the person I really see myself as, what would that look like?”
But, there’s something you need to know beyond the usual platitudes such as: you must replace bad habits with good ones, changing your life means changing the people in your life, you will be defeated by self-doubt, not by the mistakes you make . . .
If success gurus, books, online courses, and seminars told you there’s a final test that will probably break you, would you stick it out?
We all know being successful requires facing your fears. But, if success gurus were bound to full disclosure, they wouldn’t have any customers. We’d all be armchair warriors.
Steve Harvey is no success guru, and maybe because he’s not, he’s not afraid to tell it like it is in this surprising gem of a video.
ABOUT THOSE ROCKS
Your parachute is contained within the silence between the busy notes of your life. It’s where the magic is. Always present, it’s your heart waiting to open.
Truthfully, all of your life is magic, but when you’re afraid, you can’t see or feel it.
This particular magic happens in the emptiness between who you used to be and who you really are—magnificent beyond measure.
In the silence of your hang-ten, you will also hit rocks. Toes curled, the rocks you scrape upon is your shadow self (ego) popping in to ask if you want to quit and go back to “safety.” Ego’s rocks just keep coming.
What gurus rarely share is that ego saves a really big, really jagged rock for near the end.
Bloodied, you will be broken.
If you knew you were going to be broken in advance, would you even venture to the cliff?
Here’s the secret.
By staying open to your vast emptiness, the magic obliterates the shadows, using those same rocks to destroy your ego, opening your parachute—your heart.
Every scrape means a piece of your ego (metaphorically, a rock) is annihilated. Being broken wide open exposes your heart!
“Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.”
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
So, are you seriously ready to jump? What are you going to do?
Let me help you if I can, because I’ve been there. I jumped, then expected everything to come together and when it didn’t, I spent years of my life disillusioned.
As a writer, in the beginning, I couldn’t pay my friends and family to read my work. They weren’t my fans and thus didn’t understand what I was doing—or why. The next problem, I didn’t have any readers. If I could just get someone to read my . . .
But, you know what? I never turned back. I didn’t retreat to the cliff of life. I kept writing anyway. I’m still free-falling. Now, thousands have requested to read my work and continue to subscribe.
ABOUT YOUR PARACHUTE
Along the way I’ve learned a thing or two, or three:
Your freefall is your unlimited potential. Once you say yes to jumping, your freefall unleashes your infinite potential. Stay in freefall for the rest of your life. It will never disappoint you and you will never stop evolving. Your heart never stops expanding.
Refining your gifts is a process. At first, I dabbled in screenplays, nonfiction, fiction, a children’s book, blogging, etc., until I found my groove. Don’t be afraid to dabble while you find your You may lose a lot of new followers confused by a changing message but by being authentically you every day, you will remain in alignment with your heart.
Be willing to dare to redefine success. Western culture and conditioning have a pretty narrow definition of success which can put you back on the boat of unhappy slavery-by-consent if you aren’t willing to redefine what makes you happy. Ask yourself what freedom looks like to you.
Whether or not you achieve big success or are just trying to figure out how to be your best self and make a difference in the world, you most likely face loss, disappointment, and disillusionment.
Kind of sounds like life anyway, right? You’re reading this; didn’t you make it through?
Life unavoidable, you have a choice to make. The fantastic thing is, once you make that choice, then all future decisions are already made. Just follow the road signs.
“. . . you change the world by being you, fully conscious, fully empowered,
fully connected.” ~ Awakening Leadership
Trusting your parachute (heart) means your heart will break open wider than you ever thought possible to enable you to embrace the miraculous within.
Your brilliant future is here now when you say yes to life, your contribution to life, and you continue to say yes. Life/creation is always saying yes to you manifesting as another opportunity.
Parachute, heart, universe, life, creation, (yes, God, too) . . . All synonyms for love.
Feel how you are the miracle. You are love!
A beacon of light, you change the world by allowing others to step into their light and their highest potential.
Isn’t this the real you?
Isn’t this the true final test?

An Advanced Civilization Thrives by a Single Moral Value: Let’s Test It
Leadership
An Advanced Civilization Thrives by a Single Moral Value: Let’s Test It
BRILLIANT MOMENT
This all-inclusive universal super moral value mirrors nature, simultaneously bonding you and me with the common good. Individualism and collectivism now reciprocally serve one another.
Why can’t our human family agree on a universal set of values?
It’s a problem.
Due to cultural differences and disparity in what we individually value, we can’t even agree on a standard of measure. Self-preservation? Scientific? Religious? Economic? Political?
When we serve only one or two standards of measure, arbitrary “rules” become self-serving weapons used as leverage to exploit the disadvantaged resulting in ridiculous human behavior.
What is deemed acceptable changes from century to century—even decade to decade. The line in the sand continually shifts because no two people see the world the same way. Why?
Most of humanity still lacks a rudimentary understanding of how our Universe operates holistically and relationally.
What does an advanced society know that we don’t?
The evolved see beyond separation consciousness where individuals believe the preservation of the self preserves the species. In unity consciousness, it’s understood the preservation of the species and our environment preserves the self.
If life’s prime directive is we are one, wouldn’t our universal guiding principle be . . .
SUSTAINABILITY
The all-inclusive universal super moral value, sustainability mirrors nature, while simultaneously bonding you and me with the common good. Individualism and collectivism now reciprocally serve one another.
Sustainability is the morality of every facet of life rolled into one.
Scalability is the true test. If a value is out of balance, its demise becomes inevitable, toppling under the weight of the instability it creates. We will look at how this happens as we perform sustainability tests.
Meantime, there isn’t a human alive that can’t decipher right from wrong, good from bad, when put in terms of whether a choice serves the good of everyone. And that’s how this works.
Social issues such as abortion, birth control, capital punishment, capitalism, competition, public demonstrations, end of life choices, economic regulation, environmental mandates, fracking, global warming, internet neutrality, jihads, open-sourcing, outsourcing, preemptive strike, public benefits, retribution, suicide, transparency, torture, universal healthcare, war, . . .
Solutions can easily be deciphered by even a child.
LET’S TEST-DRIVE SUSTAINABILITY
Is what we value today sustainable?
With each choice or social issue, nothing is black or white. What you’re looking for is positive or negative predominance with long-term sustainability the optimal goal.
Using the above list of modern-day social issues, let’s try out our new, universal super-value in random order. Again, sustainability is simple enough, a child could be trained to solve the world’s problems in one afternoon.
Outsourcing. If it’s not found in the local environment, outsource. If you ignore the same resources available locally, you fail to tend your own backyard which is not sustainable.
Public Benefits/Universal Healthcare. It’s called universal for a reason. It sustains life. A Universal Basic Income as a foundation and not a ceiling offsets the negative benefits of exploitative economic systems and is less expensive than solving resultant problems.
War/Capital Punishment. The most unsustainable and unevolved thing on the planet ever.
Global Warming. Whether or not you believe human activity is the primary driver, the use of fossil fuels is contributing to the problem. We have alternatives.
Competition. Nature doesn’t compete with itself so why do humans? Life is synergy in motion. What becomes unsustainable falls away. Competition divides rather than exponentiating cooperative gains.
Torture/Jihads. The most unsustainable and unevolved thing on the planet ever.
Nuclear Energy/Fracking. Toxicity to human/planetary life outweighs short-term benefits—especially in light of the availability of renewable energy sources now.
Open-Sourcing. We utilize every resource at our disposal for the common good. How cool is that?
Birth Control. Birth control says the garden isn’t ready (and may never be) to properly care for a flower—the most responsible decision you can make.
Capitalism. Capitalism requires a loser for every winner. It also requires growth, or it collapses. Does this sound sustainable to you?
Preemptive Strike/Retribution. More of the same whether first or last in is not sustainability.
Internet Neutrality. Restricting the flow of internet traffic so some gain an unfair advantage creates imbalance, instability, and is short-sighted.
Economic/Environmental Regulation. Regulations are put in place as a result of the unsustainable exploitation that occurred without them.
End of Life Planning. As we optimally prepare for new life, it is sustainable to minimize extended suffering in death for all parties involved so everyone can get back to the business of living.
Public Demonstrations. Demonstrations are a collective, “Houston, we have a problem.” Peaceful demonstrations advance human consciousness faster than without them.
Abortion. One of the most hotly debated social issues on the planet while millions desperately live and die of disease, starvation, and war around the globe—neglected by a global community who doesn’t value existing life enough to solve the problems that would make abortion an unnecessary and outdated practice. This deserves its own article. (Coming soon.)
ONE MORE HELPFUL TOOL
Do unto others and you would have them do unto you.
The Golden Rule is recognized universally as the gold standard. Isn’t sustainability really love and the value that would finally unite us?
If sustainability is not your guiding principle, then you temporarily band-aid symptoms rather than addressing the root cause—which is unsustainable. It’s also important to note all solutions must themselves be sustainable.
An additional resource is Awakening Leadership‘s New Leadership Blueprint which brings helpful sustainability questions to complex situations. There is also a critical thinking skills bar graph for use in group settings. Sample questions include:
Who benefits from this choice?
Does it divide or unify?
Are benefits short- or long-term?
Constructive or destructive?
Your brilliant future is here now when you take complete responsibility for yourself and your local community, examining your choices for global impact. This is Humanity 2.0.
In the circle, or spiral, of life, every moment is purpose-driven and meaningful, therefore, so are you. The questions become, are you living your life consciously?
Taking responsibility means discernment at all times. You must take yourself off auto-pilot. Freedom carries with it great responsibility. The more responsible you are; the more freedom you are given.
The irony? Sustainability personified, rules become obsolete!
Humanity 2.0: It’s your time to thrive!

An Advanced Civilization Thrives by This Single Universal Value. Let’s Test It.
Leadership
An Advanced Civilization Thrives by This Single Universal Value. Let’s Test It.
BRILLIANT MOMENT
This all-inclusive universal super-value mirrors nature, while simultaneously bonding you and me with the common good. Individualism and collectivism now reciprocally serve one another.
Why can’t our human family agree on a universal set of values?
It’s a problem.
Due to cultural differences and disparity in what we individually value, we can’t even agree on a standard of measure. Self-preservation? Scientific? Religious? Economic? Political?
When we serve only one or two standards of measure, arbitrary “rules” become self-serving weapons used as leverage to exploit the disadvantaged resulting in ridiculous human behavior.
What is deemed acceptable changes from century to century—even decade to decade. The line in the sand continually shifts because no two people see the world the same way. Why?
Most of humanity still lacks a rudimentary understanding of how our Universe operates holistically and relationally.
What does an advanced society know that we don’t?
The evolved see beyond separation consciousness where individuals believe the preservation of the self preserves the species. In unity consciousness, it’s understood the preservation of the species and our environment preserves the self.
If life’s prime directive is we are one, wouldn’t our universal guiding principle be . . .
SUSTAINABILITY
The all-inclusive universal super-value, sustainability mirrors nature, while simultaneously bonding you and me with the common good. Individualism and collectivism now reciprocally serve one another.
Sustainability is the morality of every facet of life rolled into one.
Scalability is the true test. If a value is out of balance, its demise becomes inevitable, toppling under the weight of the instability it creates. We will look at how this happens as we perform sustainability tests.
Meantime, there isn’t a human alive that can’t decipher right from wrong, good from bad, when put in terms of whether a choice serves the good of everyone. And that’s how this works.
Social issues such as abortion, birth control, capital punishment, capitalism, competition, public demonstrations, end of life choices, economic regulation, environmental mandates, fracking, global warming, internet neutrality, jihads, open-sourcing, outsourcing, preemptive strike, public benefits, retribution, suicide, transparency, torture, universal healthcare, war, . . .
Solutions can easily be deciphered by even a child.
LET’S TEST-DRIVE SUSTAINABILITY
Is what we value today sustainable?
With each choice or social issue, nothing is black or white. What you’re looking for is positive or negative predominance with long-term sustainability the optimal goal.
Using the above list of modern-day social issues, let’s try out our new, universal super-value in random order. Again, sustainability is simple enough, a child could be trained to solve the world’s problems in one afternoon.
Outsourcing. If it’s not found in the local environment, outsource. If you ignore the same resources locally, you fail to tend your own backyard which is not sustainable.
Public Benefits/Universal Healthcare. It’s called universal for a reason. It sustains A Universal Basic Income as a foundation and not a ceiling is less expensive than solving problems that come later down the road. It also keeps the economy healthy.
Taking Life. That’s obvious whether war, capital punishment (doubling down), or suicide. End of life planning is its own (Yeah, don’t go there yet.)
Global Warming. Whether you believe human activity is the primary cause or not, the use of fossil fuels is contributing to the problem. Let’s be grown-ups about it.
Competition. Nature doesn’t compete with itself so why do humans? Life is synergy in motion. What becomes unsustainable falls away. Competition divides rather than exponentiating cooperative gains. One is more sustainable than the other.
Torture/Jihads/War. The most unsustainable and unevolved thing on the planet ever.
Nuclear Energy/Fracking. Toxicity to human/planetary life outweighs short-term benefits—especially in light of renewable energy sources now available.
Open-Sourcing. We utilize every resource at our disposal for the common good. How cool is that?
Birth Control. Birth control says the garden isn’t ready (and may never be) to properly care for a flower—the most responsible decision you can make.
Capitalism. Capitalism requires a loser for every winner. It also requires growth, or it collapses. Does this sound sustainable to you?
Preemptive Strike/Retribution. More of the same whether first or last in is not sustainability.
Internet Neutrality. Restricting the flow of internet traffic for some so others gain an unfair advantage creates imbalance, instability, and is short-sighted.
Economic/Environmental Regulation. Regulations are put in place as a result of the unsustainable exploitation that occurred without them.
End of Life Planning. As we optimally prepare for new life, it is sustainable to minimize extended suffering in death for all parties involved.
Public Demonstrations. Demonstrations are a collective, “Houston, we have a problem.” Peaceful demonstrations advance human consciousness faster than without them.
Abortion. One of the most hotly debated social issues on the planet while millions desperately live and die of disease, starvation, and war around the globe—neglected by a global community who doesn’t value existing life enough to solve the problems that would make abortion an unnecessary and outdated practice—as pro-lifers march. This deserves its own article. (Coming soon.)

MIT Physics Professor Advances Controversial Origin of Life Theory
Science
MIT Physics Professor Advances Controversial Origin of Life Theory
BRILLIANT MOMENT
Even lay persons like you and I can derive a basic understanding of our Universe from the clues offered through direct observation. A perfect recipe, evidently our infinite Universe is a self-contained primordial soup of life.
Intelligent design or accidental biology? Physics?
Provocatively begging resolution, defenders within various camps continue humanity’s quest toward establishing a foundational understanding of the origin of life within a complex Universe.
The conundrum: creation by self-definition is infinite. Narrowing life down to fit a slim narrative is like the Blind Men and the Elephant parable—but worse.
Even world-renowned physicist, Dr. Stephen Hawking, famously ditched his prior position in his book, The Grand Design: ” . . . belief in a creator was not incompatible with science” now concluding that the Big Bang was as inevitable as gravity.
Dr. Hawking went on to say, “Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist. It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the Universe going.”
In 2013, rising star MIT biophysicist, Jeremy England, gained attention with a controversial new theory that life arises out of primordial soup via thermodynamics. Specifically, England posits his equation partially unlocks the door on how order is borne out of chaos.
According to a 2014 interview with Quanta Magazine, take chemistry, add energy, and you get life. “The first tests of Jeremy England’s provocative origin-of-life hypothesis are in, and they appear to show how order can arise from nothing.”
Since then, in a study published in 2017, the 35-year-old associate-professor and multi-disciplinarian’s computer simulations have shown when 25 interconnected chemicals are subjected to external energy, atoms gradually restructure themselves, dissipating the energy as heat.
Hailed as the next Charles Darwin, England calls the science, adaptation driven by dissipation. Multiple forces in play, “That doesn’t mean you’re guaranteed to acquire that structure,” England explains.
Some systems reached a balanced concentration of chemicals and reactions—equilibrium—while other chemical reactions continued to evolve, harvesting as much energy from the environment as possible before ending at final points far from equilibrium.
The reality is that in application, just as England and paper co-author, MIT postdoctoral fellow, Jordan Horowitz are unable to replicate the complexity and dynamism of the creative process in its entirety, neither can we adequately address the question of the origin of life partially informed.
UNRAVELING LIFE’S ORIGIN STORY
Buried within the quest for life’s origin story are more questions than answers as science barely begins to scratch the surface of the nature of creation including the essence of life itself.
Hard science is based on what is testable and reproducible. The hard question is whether we can test facets of the elephant and ultimately come to understand what we have is an elephant in the room.
From What Is God? Rolling Back the Veil: “The conflict between science and religion originated from whether the laws of Creation are fixed. Science says if the laws of Creation are fixed, then an outside Creator is not necessary. Religion says if the laws of Creation are fixed, it does not allow for the mystery and miracles of a loving God that offer humanity redemption.”
In a 2010 interview with Great Britain’s Telegraph, Dr. Stephen Hawking shared: “The question is: is the way the universe began chosen by God for reasons we can’t understand, or was it determined by a law of science? I believe the second,” he stated. “If you like, you can call the laws of science ‘God,’ but it wouldn’t be a personal God that you could meet and ask questions.”
From physicist Dr. Michio Kaku: “The universe could have been random. It could have been ugly. It could have been a random collection of electrons and photons. No life, no vitality, nothing interesting at all. Just a random collection of a mist of electrons and photons. That could have been the universe, but it isn’t. Our universe is rich; it is beautiful, elegant.”
Our Universe is intelligent design. And science has proven life is evolving. Look to your parents and your children to see evolution is creation in process within time and space.
WHAT IS OUR UNIVERSE SHOWING US?
What if the answer to life’s riddle is “all of the above?”
When Dr. Hawking stated it wasn’t necessary to invoke God, was Hawking operating from the presumption of a separate God?
Has religion so thoroughly removed humanity from its source (except for a miraculous few who see through the illusion) through its primitive anthropomorphization of God that we’ve forgotten foundational truth?
In England’s computer simulation, the “external” forces jump-starting a chemical chain reaction, aren’t really external. Likewise, the sun would seem to externally jump-start photosynthesis in plants. But the sun and Earth operate within a symbiotic system called our solar system.
An acorn contains the entire DNA blueprint of its parent tree allowing for contiguous replication in synergy with the sun, rain, soil, its environment, etc. Previous generations are evidence of creation’s fractal self-organizational skills.
Jeremy England’s focus on the physics of life, we see that chemistry, biology—even non-linear forces outside our understanding inextricably intertwined within the total process.
Let’s call yet-to-be-human-discovered-mystery-forces and named/unnamed Laws of Creation—God. Why not?
If England’s work scales upward, we will have scientific proof the origin of life is neither intelligent design, biology, nor physics. The elegant elephant in the room infinite, the answer is “all of the above.”
Your brilliant future is here now when you see Creation as fixed/unfixed, knowable/mysterious, miraculous, and yes, divine. Exquisitely elegant, gorgeous, and divine . . .
God and science are but human interpretations of aspects of the cosmic ONE from an extremely limited point of view. Conflict diminishes when we consciously upscale, observing life holistically—unity consciousness—rather than the parts of separation consciousness.
The takeaway is that even lay persons like you and I can derive a basic understanding of our Universe from the clues offered through direct observation. A perfect recipe, evidently our infinite Universe is a self-contained primordial soup of life.
Hidden in plain sight for all to see, the Grand Designer of the Universe is . . . The Universe.

I Experienced Unconditional Love; It’s Beyond Human
Essay
I Experienced Unconditional Love; It’s Beyond Human
BRILLIANT MOMENT
Humans “do” because we think we are separate from what we already are. Far more is—fill in the blank—in this world by sitting in silent wonder, grateful to be alive. This is how you change your world.
I stood transfixed outside an ordinary office building next to three of my co-workers. Frozen, I couldn’t even to fall to my knees in gratitude. Placing a hand tenderly on each woman’s shoulder, I wept tears of joy repeatedly whispering, “Thank you.”
Unblinking, smiling eyes filled with knowing returned my fearless gaze.
And then it was over.
The radiant, enigmatic balm of unconditional love revealed itself to me and friends I haven’t seen in nearly 20 years, time and space obliterated for but a fleeting moonshot through eternity.
I had transcended my body revealing love’s constant presence. My dream lasting only seconds, my first thought upon awakening: “My God, it’s not human.” The love we experience as humans is but a microcosm of the infinite.
What is and has been so striking with each of my unique out-of-body-experiences is that we unconsciously live with a constant low level of emotional pain or anxiety like static noise in the background. The Power of Now author, Eckhart Tolle, calls it the “pain body.”
When we pierce the veil or illusion of separation, the pain body instantly disappears just as the body disappears like a shadow exposed to sunlight.
I can’t keep this love to myself. If I could stand under a star-filled canopy and, like the aurora borealis, radiate it to the world to experience even for the same few seconds, I would willingly die at this moment to give you a taste of what you unknowingly bathe in.
Unconditional love is beyond human, but includes humanity.
As I stood with my friends, the walls of the building and town faded away to reveal rolling hills and blue skies in every direction. I felt unconditional love instantaneously envelop me like a warm blanket—an unending living field of aliveness. The feeling was indescribable, but I’ll try.
The human body is the veil itself.
I was in a state of pure, orgasmic ecstasy. Imagine the moment just before orgasm and hold—yeah, that. Like human eyes and the brain can only register a limited number of colors in the color spectrum, our body’s nervous is limited in what the five senses experience. There’s an entire metaphysical world beyond our physical senses reachable through higher states of consciousness. Orgasm is Creation’s reminder that even in a body, we have access.
Love is all there is, ever-present and everlasting.
To say love is a field of energy is not enough. The sky was made of love along with its connecting endless carpet of green. Invisible, the air was just as dense with this non-substance as was everything made manifest. Yet, my “world” was a dreamscape painted by Creation’s empty airbrush. Though everything stood still in reverence (not to itself, for there was no subject/object), it was clear the all was silently making eternal love.
Unworthiness, God, sin, are all human concepts.
This surreal dreamscape flowed through me, as me. The relief I felt along with pure joy was relief from being afraid, uncertain; relief from fear of death, fear of failure, fear of my own shadow. . . Oh, the sweet relief. Whether I was worthy wasn’t even a concept in this state. Why would you stand in the ocean as the ocean, knowing you are the ocean, and question if you are good enough to be the ocean?
Death and separation aren’t real.
I couldn’t move only because there was nothing to do except reverently be blissfully awed and thankful. Creation is a finished work. Humans “do” because we think we are separate from what we already are. I would have happily stood in that spot for eternity—and I do.
Your brilliant future is here now when you realize that your external physical world is but is a third-dimensional movie playing in the background. Your state of being (level of consciousness) is the brush that paints your reality. You can reinforce a 3D reality by adding the same level of content to it or you can aim higher.
Far more is witnessed, seen, understood, realized, completed, accomplished—fill in the blank—in this world by sitting in silent wonder, grateful to be alive. Take time daily from busy doing to BE. This is how you change your world.
Heaven on Earth, like unconditional love, is literally right in front of you!

5 False Nobilities (Modern Society Idolizes) Holding Humanity Back from Self-Actualization
Consciousness
5 False Nobilities (Modern Society Idolizes) Holding Humanity Back from Self-Actualization
BRILLIANT MOMENT
Given as a gift, unlimited abundance is your birthright and proof you are worthy. Humanity flourishes when the well-being of the individual is realized to be equally as important as the well-being of the collective.
~ wealth ~
Each one of us is born into unlimited wealth. Don’t believe it? Look all around you. Notice Nature is unceasingly productive and abundant. Humanity has been gifted a wondrous planet so bountiful, we could and should be living in paradise. So why aren’t we?
Wealth itself is neutral. Yet, ancient texts, saints and sages—even history offers a long-standing cautionary tale warning us of the dangers of excess easily characterized within modern society. The majority of people worship wealth above all else. The creation of wealth is the American dream to the extent human value is equivalent to one’s net worth.
Mirroring natural law, wealth is dynamic energy in motion. The sustainability of Nature depends on a constant, abundant flow of energy for all systems to remain balanced and healthy. Wealth for wealth’s sake controls humanity instead of remaining within the natural order of flow when hoarded and used for power over others. Wealth taken out of circulation stagnates creating energy blockages that spread “sickness” within the individual and society.
Real wealth is not derived from attachment to materialism. Instead, we align with Nature and its ceaseless flow. Ownership gives way to access to. In harmony with Natural Law, abundance flows into your life effortlessly. In return, you do your part, recycling prosperity through sustainability practices such as service to others, creativity, and generosity.
~ poverty ~
A man born a prince who instead became the enlightened one, Siddharta Gauta lived about 2,600 years ago near the border of Nepal and India. Despite being sheltered from the world in a royal palace by his father, the King, Siddharta witnessed much human suffering and the impermanent nature of the world.
At age 29, Siddharta renounced his regal life, leaving his wife and child in secrecy to meditate in the forest as a wandering monk. Seeking a way to overcome human suffering, he adopted a life of austerity prescribed by holy men, starving and punishing his body for many years until near death. Still, enlightenment did not come.
Realizing human suffering isn’t resolved by piling on more human suffering, Siddharta saw renouncement was but just another attachment. He walked away from austerity to sit under the Bodhi tree to meditate in a state of neutrality—the middle path.
The Buddha came to enlightenment by releasing all transient personal attachments to reveal his multidimensional nature. Heaven on Earth is realized when we joyfully accept and share the gifts we are freely given without attachment or judgment.
~ sacrifice ~
Give something to get something. Sounds logical, right? Since before the dawn of the age of reason, sacrifices were and are still regularly made to appease our god(s). Usually sacrifice is an act of self-purification in exchange for access to greater external power, i.e., a ticket to Heaven, or on behalf of others whose purpose appears to be far grander than your own.
Armies, even nations have been built from the dogma of sacrificing the self to advance a “select” superior few. In the Western world, “hard work and sacrifice” are pounded into the collective psyche to convince individuals to become willing worker bees in pursuit of material happiness.
Survivalism born out of human competition is hard work and sacrifice. Voluntary surrender of limb, life, and liberty can only occur in tandem with the indoctrination of the false belief you are not worthy.
Given freely as a gift, unlimited abundance is your birthright and your proof you are worthy. Remaining in a state of gratitude in remembrance of the gift, sacrifice is never required. Humanity flourishes when the well-being of the individual is realized to be equally as important as the well-being of the collective.
~ busyness ~
Historically, idleness was and still is disdained. If you can’t materially quantify your value, then it must not be so, says our cultural story. You may recognize this in yourself as not allowing yourself to take time for contemplation, meditation, and silence—to do nothing and just BE.
Busyness is defined as supplanting personal freedom with endless activity to avoid the sheer terror of the empty void within and fear of lack without. Endless activity is a manifestation of not realizing self-worth, personal fulfillment, and even external material needs are creatively sourced from within.
Most of humankind hasn’t evolved to conscious awareness of the untapped power available to them within the metaphysical world. The magic contained within the void is your limitless resource of abundance. Zero point is Intuitive Intelligence, and your connection to the infinite.
Avoid unnecessary busyness by aligning with higher consciousness through stillness. Visualize your heart filling with golden light expanding to connect with your mind, also lit from within. With daily practice, purposeful stillness is preferred over the wastefulness of unnecessary busyness.
~ servitude ~
Notice the five false nobilities are all byproducts of separation consciousness deeply ingrained in almost every culture on Earth through rigorous conditioning. The belief we are separate from one another and Creation itself is the root of all human suffering—the opposite of self-realization.
Miraculously, we are now witnessing a spectacular dawn of a new age of unity consciousness—Humanity 2.0—where human interdependence and connectivity within a dynamic Universe is being realized, reopening the door to our natural inheritance.
Individualism in balance with collectivism, we gain true freedom from servitude (slavery) to wealth, poverty, sacrifice, busyness—and one another. Servitude for survival becomes service to others. Your new freedom allows you to re-engineer your life in service of joyful living for all humanity without struggle and strife.
Competition abandoned for cooperative living, only a few hours of service a day is required to consciously co-create a sustainable, peaceful society where basic shelter, food, water, healthcare, and education are easily accessible to all. Imagine the remainder of your day spent with loved ones cultivating higher consciousness and creativity!
