Why is it so difficult to experience a lofty truth in this environment? And why is it that when we attempt to live such a truth that the environment seems both hostile and full of temptation?

We must always remember that the environment is the result of the collective consciousness here, so every time we look upon others we will see an aspect of the first three seals, which we must be conscious enough not to get caught up in.

It’s no wonder the walk of the student becomng a Master is treacherous and full of adversity!

As our truth becomes progressively more lofty, it becomes more and more difficult to 'live it', because we find ourselves going against the grain of the mainstream consciousness. This is why, in the main, a master walks in silence; yet they relish the opportunity to stand up for their truth if the circumstances dictate.

The living of progressively advancing truth is directly proportionate to our ability to let go of past experiences. Why would we want to go out of our way to engage other people when clearly their knowledge is lagging behind ours? We must always seek to understand ourselves and gradually retire the needs that are entangling us with people that are clearly living the consciousness of the altered-ego. It is only our own needs that keep these people in our lives; so they are indeed a reflection of our level of consciousness and show us clearly where our energy is caught up.

Letting go is the most difficult process because we are effectively stripping ourselves bare, thus discarding all those old identities to return to the Gold. All the identities that we forge around ourselves have made us a 'somebody' in our eyes and the eyes of others, yet this is all part of this illusionary life; that fogs out the truth of the golden light coming from within. It's only when we consciously peel away every badge we have labelled ourselves with, do we have the most exquisite truth revealed to us.

As our truth expands, the importance of letting go is paramount; otherwise we become a house in consciousness divided against itself. If we choose to hold onto the consciousness of the first three seals, we are effectively holding onto the past and recreating that consciousness into our future. Becoming clean of the past and living our truth is the process of letting go. But if we find ourselves holding on then we either don't have the wisdom, are too fearful to let go or too addicted to the emotions that 'holding on' brings.

Is it any wonder that masterful beings are so rare when we consider that the greatest addiction there is, is to emotion?

So it is that our realities are simply a reflection of the choices we make. Greatness or mediocrity is merely a succession of choices made. Being born to a wealthy family and occupying a privileged position, in a mentally retarded consciousness, does not make one great. And the words greatness and genius should never be associated with sporting achievements!

You can wake up in the morning, take a pee, look in the mirror and unconsciously search for emotion for the rest of the day. Or you can wake and create your day - like a Master does. Which do you do? Is that not a choice?
