I don’t like to use the word ‘God’ when I write about our creator. I don’t have an issue with the word itself, but it reminds me of hardcore religious fanatics with hatred in their hearts, who judge people because of an imbalanced sense of self-righteousness and an apparent need to call out ‘heathens’ for their ‘sin’.

It isn’t the fault of the word itself, and it has more to do with these people’s close-minded hatred.

Unfortunately, many of them have been driven to it by their religion. I won’t target modern religion specifically in this piece, because it’s entirely possible to be a Christian, Catholic, etc. and still be a good person. I know people who needed religion to get off of drugs and find their life’s purpose, and they certainly aren’t rude, hateful or judgmental.

Instead of beliefs, I’d like to focus on people and how we make religious excuses for our inexcusable hatred. I’d also like to focus a little on the word ‘God’.

As a spiritual writer who wants to reach everyone, regardless of their beliefs or their outlook on life, I try to avoid this word because for a lot of people, it instantly throws up alarm bells and signals that they should distance themselves.

How can we get excited about creating a new world? How can we inspire ourselves to pursue our purpose in the collective awakening and make sure the inspiration sticks?

A lot of people talk about a new way of life, the meek inheriting the earth, and various other concepts that point to a worldwide transformation, but I wonder how many of them are willing to put in the massive amount of work that’s required. We can’t wait around for anyone else to make a change, especially our governments, and we have to take responsibility for our planet’s situation and work together to find solutions to our seemingly endless problems.

Be the Change, Make a Change

We can talk, write or sing about collective enlightenment or the fall of the corrupt elite all we want. But until we enlighten ourselves and strive for change in direct, tangible ways, the elite will continue to ravage the planet and the world will stay rooted in the lower consciousness that causes suffering and allows them to get away with their crimes.

All around the world, people are awakening to spirituality, the corruption of the people in power and the necessity to change our ways, and whether we realize it or not, we’re all on a mission to wake up and help the rest of the world become aware.

I think there’s a difference between our ‘mission’ and our ‘purpose’. In my opinion, our mission is to spread love, knowledge and awareness so the world can wake up and make a positive change, and our purpose is whatever medium we use to do that. Some people choose writing; some choose music, painting or something similar; some speak publicly on a number of issues that have to do with a new paradigm; and some share the information and art that’s offered by the rest of the conscious community.

I wonder how many UFO enthusiasts have heard about the Phoenix Lights, which were a series of unidentified lights that appeared over the skies of Phoenix, AZ, as well as various other nearby cities and towns, in 1997. I’m sure most people who are even somewhat passionate about UFOs have heard of them, and like the Rendlesham Forest incident, this was one of many breathtaking sightings of something that people still can’t explain.

Of course, an ‘official’ explanation was given for at least one of the sets of lights that were seen, which is that they were from flares the Air Force fired off in the area that night. However, some witnesses are convinced that what they saw had nothing to do with flares or any other excuse that debunks the idea that the lights were explainable or could be attributed to coincidence.

Here, I’d like to examine at an account of the Phoenix Lights that comes from the popular UFO network ‘MUFON’. As MUFON’s report about the lights tells us, thousands of people saw them over Arizona, Nevada and even Mexico.

I’d like to follow up from my piece yesterday and encourage us all to get serious about our purpose. Let’s figure out how we want to help the world, because it needs people who are willing to pursue their dreams and help others along the way. To help others is to help ourselves, and when we use our talents and passions to uplift the world, we serve our creator and expand our consciousness.

Those of us who consider ourselves ‘conscious’ or ‘awakened’ have a natural responsibility to share the good vibes with the world, and we don’t necessarily have to do it by sharing our perspective on spirituality, which will inevitably contradict a lot of people’s beliefs. There’s nothing wrong with discussing our philosophy with open-minded people, but we might not want to force our perspective onto anyone.
