What is it that we are here for, and how we can begin to reflect this understanding through our conscious awareness of it?

Right now humanity is experiencing a major shift and collapse of the egoic world. Corporations and banking systems are collapsing, credit is unavailable, the car industry is folding and the world is united in fear, anger and loss. (That’s if you watch the news)

However, with acceptance of this and the understanding of the necessity for this to happen we can still find joy.

How do we do this? How, with all the pain and anguish that is being felt at the moment can we be expected to feel joyful or peaceful? And is it disrespectful or ignorant not to share the grief that is being felt at the moment?

Some may say yes.

Others know that this is a beautiful opportunity for new growth as a planet and a collective consciousness.

We are watching the inevitable expansion of consciousness. We, as humanity are learning. Nothing that is built on a foundation without love or the ability to benefit all concerned will long endure. Our outer world is beginning to reflect our inner world.

We are finding that our outer world will reflect our inner world when we choose to make the inner world a priority. The joy and peace that we are all searching for cannot come from the world, it will flow from our inner world and move toward growing and expanding consciousness. This is the only true purpose; the purpose of the present moment. The present moment is your purpose, because all things flow from it. And as more of us come together with the understanding and desire to create a world built on the foundation of love and compassion, the weaker the egoic world will become. It is a beautiful time to realise that we are beginning to understand the same things and have risen to the challenge to create a better future for us and for the generations to come.

The easiest way, for us today, to begin to become conscious is to slow down, become aware of your surroundings, your feelings, your reactions. When your inner world becomes your priority you will begin to see the world in a new light. You will accept that we are living in a cycle of life that is continuous and transformative. This is the only life that will bring you the satisfaction you are looking for. The acceptance of everything in it and the ability to see love in everything is the beginning of awakening.

This may be hard to swallow at first, but with practice this will become your default vision. You will become the observer. An observer of form.

And most beautifully - you will understand that we are one.
