You can contemplate the meaning of life or you can live the meaning of life. You can contemplate the meaning of life while living the meaning of life, but contemplating without living poses many hazards and is a necessary stage of development on the Path to Knowledge. The Path to Knowledge, the path to the source of your being, is mysterious and instructive, though one has to prepare for that instruction.
Learning isn’t always easy. You could say learning is never easy. But you could also say you’re only ever preparing to learn, that you’re learning to learn. The learning itself is instantaneous and effortless as it represents the deepest and most familiar thing to you, an experience of the very essence of familiarity and a deeper relationship only temporarily forgotten. This is the meaning of life, here in the familial space of rendering service unto the world through deeply established relationships. This is true marriage. This is God. You have come to reclaim it, and it has come to reclaim you. This family is different than your biological family. This family transcends all space, time and dimension, stretching all the way back to God like twigs becoming branches becoming a trunk. Many orders of learning meet here in Knowledge, the only motionless staff of true instruction for any race in the universe. This great meeting place of Knowledge verily represents your experience of God, the great Life beyond life, though which your current life is an integral part. This should not burden minds seeking to understand it, but progressively free minds from attempting the impossible. This is done through your accrued learning in relationship with Knowledge and with all life. The experience of your family here allows the personal mind to serve a greater Mind and the personal life to serve a greater Life through Knowledge. This holds all meaning, fulfillment and purpose in life, that you can do nothing alone as the Teachers of God are truly with you. Though being connected to all life while also needing to contend with that life in Separation can be a great source of trouble for many. The fire of the mind and it’s connection to the soul can experience great difficulty here. The body can become ill, poor decisions can be made, things can happen, though true instruction is always possible. Separation is demanding. All life within it has a great need of resources and no race in the universe has transcended this need. The possibility of error for intelligent life is great since it can misinterpret the world it occupies in myriad ways without the power and presence of Knowledge to guide it. Errors and mistakes are absorbed as fertilizer into this equilibrium and progress is always made, but errors are not justified or condoned in this way. They’re only used to point to the Way. But the Way must be recognized and followed or there can indeed be tragic consequences. This is a great challenge for all intelligent life, to keep Knowledge alive while also living in Separation, especially during difficult and trying times. Animals of all types don’t seem to be as prone to error as human beings are, and as the New Message discusses, all intelligent life can greatly struggle in this way, especially when crossing thresholds such as this. The difficulty is that intelligent beings possess minds that relate to their environments differently, allowing them to think, feel and behave differently, even amongst themselves as individual races. This great variance of experience poses certain challenges that can lead to great triumphs and leaps in evolution, though failures in evolution are always possible if Knowledge is denied or forgotten for long enough. This raises important questions for all intelligent life: What is the most universally good and useful thing I can do for the world and for all life while still being so limited in Separation, and how can I recognize this and follow it? These are good questions. They’re fundamental to ask if one seeks to contemplate life and also live life. But being truly reclaimed by life progressively ends questioning as the mystery of your being is meant to be lived and experienced by the soul and the life, not solved or understood by the mind. This is what makes the mystery of your relationship with God incorruptible. This is what it means to be progressively unburdened by God through true instruction. This is what it means to come home to yourself in God while also in Separation. The mind was never meant to understand this, though one may fully know and experience it. The mind and body were created to experience physical reality, to navigate it and to survive within it. They are amazing instruments in this regard and their ability to communicate Knowledge is tremendous given the conditions. The great variance of experience though can become hypnotizing and confusing in any world harboring intelligent life, hence the mind must learn of its truest and most correct orientation, to become progressively unburdened by true instruction and spiritual development through Knowledge. For humanity this has manifested in many ways throughout its history on earth. But Knowledge itself is universal. The New Message states that the Wise behave so similarly in all worlds precisely because of this, though their form and histories may differ greatly. The four Pillars of Life in the New Message are the Pillar of Work, the Pillar of Relationships, the Pillar of Health, and the Pillar of Spiritual Development. The Pillar of Spiritual Development is important for many reasons. Here one experiences a memory beyond one’s worldly memories, a mind beyond one’s worldly mind, and a greater Life that animates all meaningful activity in one’s personal life. The deepest familiarity and Knowledge of who you are, what your true relationships are, and what your real mission in life is, are all found here. This is the Greater Reality that all minds truly yearn to know and serve with joy, humility and deep satisfaction, though it can only be known through direct experience. Here one is only ever learning to learn and must assume very little concerning their true destiny. This can form part of the tragedy of Separation, that circumstances and conditions can sometimes limit the amount of Knowledge available to beings. But all of life is Knowledge, and all of your relationships within life and beyond it are Knowledge. This bond is eternal, though fully reclaiming it while in a temporary life in a temporary world can be challenging. For intelligent life this requires there to be Keepers of Knowledge, for Knowledge must be actively taken care of and kept alive in a universe full of intelligent life where error can be so prevalent. Even in worlds where Knowledge has been suppressed or forgotten it must still find a way to emerge in individuals that hold promise. Knowledge is practiced through simple recognition and devotion, though learning to recognize it can take a great deal of time. One aims to be of the greatest and highest good while in Separation, no matter how difficult the circumstances. The practice here is in allowing the source of your being to influence your life more than any other force. In coming to recognize and gain a deeper relationship with this source, all other questions about life begin to fade and dissolve, ultimately making one’s practice a great salve and remedy for all Separation, especially for those still lost within it. This is exactly what Angels are, even in other worlds. They are the Unseen Ones representing our deeper relationships and our deeper Selves, helping us to remember who we are and assisting us in all ways concerning this. The Spiritual Families are thus gathered and reclaimed by God throughout the entire universe. One has to be working in union and also for union. It can take time to recognize that Separation is not only for personal gain or to feel secure, and that you cannot hide within it like a crayfish under a rock forever since the Greater Reality of your source is all around you. This might seem fearful or impossible to those trying to establish themselves in Separation, but Knowledge does not condemn since Knowledge knows you would only fail without its presence here. Having things and feeling good in life is important and necessary, it’s why bananas taste good and why sex feels good, because they are good. But the mind cannot bargain with these things in order to fulfill its own ideas and assumptions concerning them, or even its ideas and assumptions concerning unity, love and goodness in the world. This is especially true when technology begins to develop for beings in a particular world. The revolution of breaking the technological barrier to space and interstellar travel renders a world naked and vulnerable in many ways, both physically and spiritually, which is why discretion and discernment become so important, something humanity is not practicing very well as a species. Discretion has always been important concerning the protection, growth and cultivation of Knowledge within the world and also beyond it in other worlds, and even between worlds. The reason is that any link in the chain of Knowledge can become compromised in Separation by the Forces of Dissonance, which is why the many different cells of Knowledge that comprise these networks may not know about each other directly. But they do know about each other through Knowledge which far outstrips any communications or travel technology. The Networks of the Wise, as the Allies of Humanity term them, exist everywhere, both physically and spiritually. They even form your Spiritual Family and your connection to God. But if Knowledge is forgotten in a world, if it is denied or suppressed, different conditions begin to emerge leading to great ideological wars about the very existence of God and Knowledge and how these things are interpreted. Organizations that are supposed to protect Knowledge can be corrupted. Administrative bodies that are supposed to care for people can be corrupted. Though conspiracies may exist, the only real conspiracy is beings making decisions without Knowledge, pure and simple. There are those in poverty who do not have the privilege of dedicating themselves to certain practices or have access to certain kinds of material. This is why the greatest saints of history usually come from poor areas. But those with time and luxury in affluent countries have a great opportunity here to develop themselves spiritually, and it’s very important that they recognize this opportunity and the great need for it. Studying the New Message and taking the Steps to Knowledge can be a great gift to the world and to the individual undertaking it. Other paths may certainly be legitimate if they indeed come from Knowledge, though being within this great shift and moving through these uncertain times as we are has invited opportunists and impostors who would actually lead humanity down a dangerous path. This isn’t meant to frighten, it’s only given for your understanding and to aid in your development. There are beings in the world from elsewhere that are not here to support the human family through this transition, but who seek to eventually be the governors of humanity by the end of it. One powerful arm of this intervention is the proliferation of false teachings designed to disarm one’s critical thinking and also one’s effectiveness in life. These teachings place a heavy emphasis on not needing to work, struggle or apply oneself in life in order to achieve anything, on only looking out for oneself and focusing on materialistic desires, that all illnesses, conditions and symptoms are solely the creation of one’s mind, and that all this (and much more) somehow represents the greatest spiritual teaching in the universe. Take careful note how these wildly popular beliefs actually invert the four Pillars of Life, again, being the Pillar of Work, the Pillar of Relationships, the Pillar of Health and the Pillar of Spiritual Development. This isn’t so coincidental or even that surprising, that the presence of a very foreign kind of “spiritual mold” would exude these things, though it may disguise itself as being quite the opposite by capitalizing on human ignorance and superstition. There are different influences like this affecting all human religion now which must be understood. Humanity can truly save itself with Knowledge. It can clean the earth and end its longstanding conflicts. It can fully heal and become at home in a vast universe that it is only just now beginning to understand and explore. The greatest gift to you is precisely your greatest gift to others in Knowledge. This deeper learning creates a strong sense of union within the human family and even beyond it with other races, no matter the differences in form, culture or environment. Knowledge is the great unifying factor in the universe, and when humanity discovers that it’s being manipulated by less than virtuous beings from that same universe, the sense of union it feels as a species will greatly increase allowing for a deeper spiritual knowing to emerge that will dramatically affect all aspects of human civilization. The opportunists and impostors can influence and even foment human conflict in order to stop this from happening. They wish to make conditions suitable here only for themselves, completely unknown to humanity. Any relations with off-world presences that are in the world at this time will be based on deception. They are not saviors and they do not represent a higher or more advanced way of being. They're resource explorers and commercial interests who seek only to partner with and employ humanity, which very much threatens humanity’s future as a free and self-determined race in the Greater Community. Humanity must eventually unite in the face of this presence and create a boundary to space that is carefully watched and monitored with all sightings on the ground being reported. This is simply evolution and does not need to be done violently or with panic and fear. It simply needs to be done out of necessity, which is actually very fertile ground for Knowledge to emerge. You have immunity to this foreign presence because of the Knowledge within you and within the world. It need only be reclaimed. This is fundamental. Taking the Steps to Knowledge and establishing the four Pillars of Life will create the optimal conditions for Knowledge to emerge and grow in one’s life and world. The mold cannot grow in these conditions. They cannot even tolerate these conditions (though certain hybrids may have promise as allies in Knowledge). It is useful to conceive of the intervention in this way; as mold. They like dark places and dark spaces where things are not known and have become stagnant, taking full advantage of any human ignorance, disunity or darkness it can find. This is why certain areas of government have become so off-the-books and secretive concerning this presence, because something is unfolding that has never really happened in this world before and that has a lot of sensitive material around it. What is it doing? How many people are really being taken? Is it affecting the population in different ways? How extensive is the hybrid program really? Is it friendly or is it hostile? The answers to these questions are discussed at length in the Allies of Humanity briefings which are comprised of 4 books received by Marshall Vian Summers and that can be read for free online at alliesofhumaity.org, beside the entirety of the New Message which itself has taken 40 years for Marshall to receive at newmessage.org. This is a great gift to the world. This great gift also has many gifts within it. In order for humanity to respond properly to a foreign presence of any kind, and especially of this kind, it must be united within itself, and it must progressively move beyond choice in the matter as the intervention becomes more of a known reality. The U.S. military has begun releasing documents to help with the process of disclosure. Even though its relationship with the public is tenuous at present, the gradual seeding of information and the development of trust concerning this is extremely important. The unveiling of this reality will help individuals escape the mental prison of harboring opinions and beliefs based solely on personal preference. It will help one feel bonded to and responsible for the world in a new way, allowing for a much greater spirituality to develop, and rapidly so, as this is truly the greatest unifying factor for humanity at this time. This is difficult for the mold to manage, because it can only exist in the dark which is its greatest weakness. Our seeming vulnerability can become our greatest strength when we realize how much Knowledge truly exists within the human family. Separation is painful. It’s actually why babies cry. It’s just a truth about living here. Much about Separation can even seem tragic, though it is balanced by the Knowledge that exists within all life. Separation can be both beautiful and terrifying, full of both horrors and wonders. The intervention has the capacity to teach this to humanity, that being dominated by certain conditions in the universe has lead to actions that can look horrendous, much like humanity, that they are simply being driven by their own need for resources, much like humanity is, and that not all of them are practitioners or Keepers of Knowledge, much like with humanity. This is the reality of living in Separation, a very dense and consequential place to exist. But decisions become ever more consequential within a Greater Community environment where different worlds have become aware of one another and may actually come into contact with one another. Greater consequences here requires a much greater wisdom to be brought to bear, a greater wisdom whose source is beyond the world. Relationships with other races should be approached carefully with Knowledge and a unified world, especially where physical contact is concerned. This alone proves that any off-world presence in the world now is visiting prematurely, signifying an ethical violation as humanity is thoroughly unprepared and uneducated concerning this presence and its environment. Is humanity simply going to trust this because it’s so new, novel and exciting as more and more people begin channeling and communing with presences they do not fully understand? Many have unfortunately fallen into this category, though not all relations are inherently negative. There is another Presence in the world which is Knowledge, which is also connected to humanity's spiritual Teachers that are native to this world and now also to the Allies of Humanity, those from beyond the world who wish to assist in the reclamation of Knowledge here at this time. They do not need to come here physically, and they're very aware of and supportive of humanity's emergence into the Greater Community. This is why it's so crucial for humanity to learn discernment and to be able to tell the difference between Knowledge and all other forces in the mental environment, forces that can affect one in many different ways. Separation, no matter how grievous its consequences or how terrifying its appearances may be at times, is always just, as that which is temporary cannot govern that which is eternal and permanent. Knowledge is eternal and permanent, and there is a great need for Knowledge within all life, and especially intelligent life, for it can be driven into cold and calculating states of survival if it does not correct its own errors in time. Humanity was meant to eventually discover that they are not the only denizens of the universe or even their own world. This is why the intervention is here, because humanity seems to be destroying the natural resources of the earth, precious biological and natural resources that others know about and wish to preserve for themselves. But they are without Knowledge being here which is their great disadvantage. They are beings born out of the desperation of Separation, and in this they deserve compassion. They entered a path of great entropy that has only served to deepen their separation as they sought to only develop themselves technologically in their respective worlds. This represents a form of poverty in the universe, the poverty of gaining power without Knowledge to guide it. This becomes a prison-like existence that would be unbearable for any human being on earth to live in, and its influence can be felt across many races and nations that have developed along similar lines. Humanity is encountering this great danger with its own technological development, that without Knowledge it becomes extremely blind and destructive, even when attempting its own course correction and trying to “save the world” from itself. Great mistakes and misunderstandings often occur here as good intentions without Knowledge inevitably lead to disaster. Many races have actually taken this path many times over in the universe. It is not unique, and humanity is not uniquely evil or destructive in this regard. But there is still time, and Knowledge can still be ignited within the human family to guide and to protect it. The New Message discusses how there have been great power struggles and also great agreements and alliances made concerning resources in many parts of the universe, agreements over who controls the flow of these resources, what’s allowed and what’s not allowed concerning trade between worlds, etc., even within this region of space. It’s also discussed that there are limits to technology, and that the intervention has not “mastered the universe” simply because it has a few forms of technology. They have actually become enslaved by their own imbalanced developments in this way and are living with the consequences, much the same way humanity seems to be doing. This is how they’re able to function more or less undetected in the world at this time, because the world is forgetting Knowledge just as they have in their own rapid technological development. They wish to make human civilization more like their civilization and to make us more compatible with their environment. Our technological advancement does make us much more viable for bonding and partnership with them, but their presence is altogether regressive for humanity no matter how much progress seems to be taking place. Things can seem to be stalling more than they should in our development, especially ethically and spiritually, and the intervention is not being idle here. Some of these beings may indeed have talents, but they are not models of leadership for any race, especially while moving through a transition like this. The intervention is a collective, or what the Allies of Humanity call “the Collectives.” It is composed of many races which will seem confusing at first. Some of them are even competing amongst themselves over their objectives here. This is important to understand in terms of what actions may need to be taken on behalf of humanity in opposing the intervention and seeing it off this world and eventually out of the solar system. The Allies of Humanity and the New Message state that there are three requirements for freedom in this Greater Community of life. These are unity, discretion and self sustainment. These three things are required for any free nation to exist in a universe where so many unfree nations also exist. They are fundamental in facing any form of competition from the universe, but this reality doesn’t have to be fearful or panic inducing. It’s important to understand that this is simply nature, just like earth, only on a much larger scale, and countless worlds have crossed the very same threshold that humanity is crossing now. From Secrets of Heaven, page 121: “The world is opening. Opening is difficult. It takes great planning and support, as well as great willingness. The factions that are intent upon maintaining tribal separation will struggle against this as if it were their own identity that they were seeking to save. And yet this must pass as well. To understand your visitors from beyond the world, you must be beyond divisiveness among yourselves. This is a lofty goal, given your present state. And yet the forewarning of this is but the symbol of the purpose that underlies change as you know it. Do not think that this will not involve you completely. You have no greater desire than to become completely involved. For in this way, you will become complete.” Understanding and eventually flourishing in this new environment will require unity, discretion and self sustainment. It is non-negotiable. How can such a seemingly differentiated race of beings with such a stratified experience of itself across the world become unified and bring an end to its earthly conflicts? Out of necessity, which again is very fertile ground for Knowledge to emerge. This doesn’t mean humanity all become exactly the same, or that they all agree on all subjects. It means they’re united in purpose and action concerning their responsibility for each other and their world, and that they have moved well beyond choice or preference in the matter. The Pillar of Health The Pillar of Health in these times is critical to have in order, especially for the other pillars to be optimal. The New Message discusses how the four Pillars of Life are like the four legs of a table. If one leg is compromised or missing, the table will not be sturdy enough to hold up anything of real weight. In the same way, a compromised life will not be able to sustain a higher purpose that’s meant to resonate into the deep future. No matter how spiritually inclined a person may be, no matter how much a person may be trying to provide for others with their work, and no matter what a person’s relationships may be, if they are sick or have issues with their body and are not taking care of themselves, or if they are totally in the dark about what’s causing their symptoms and conditions and how to address them, their progress can be greatly impeded. This is just the nature of physical reality. The vehicle for the mind and for Knowledge in the world is the physical body, and it requires constant attention. This doesn’t need to be overbearing or a burden, but if certain issues are allowed to develop for long enough without being properly addressed or corrected, it can very much become overbearing and a burden for the individual. When the body is given exactly what it needs and is given the opportunity to function more optimally in the world, to heal and to protect itself, then a person’s spiritual development, their work, and their relationships become much more vitalized and charged. The individual experiencing this can be amazed at the difference, especially if they’re coming from a place of being rather unwell or compromised, even in ways that may be unknown to them. This issue of maintaining health and well being, both physically and mentally, is very much highlighted for an individual during the second stage of development that’s discussed in the New Message, for example in the book Relationships and Higher Purpose which is highly recommended. Speaking very broadly and generally, there are three stages of development across the entire physical universe, which includes the physical universe itself. There is a beginning, a middle and an end to any process in Separation. This is true for individual maturation and for that of other beings as well. It’s also true for entire civilizations. You could say that for intelligent beings: The first stage of development is the denial of Knowledge. The second stage of development is the discovery of Knowledge. And the third stage of development is the expression of Knowledge. Concerning the second stage, the discovery of Knowledge, from Secrets of Heaven on page 138: “All that we speak of is the inherent process of discovering what is true by eliminating the false. First, you discover what is true by recognizing the contrast, for this contrast will teach you the source of your happiness and of your sorrow. Once this recognition has been developed, you may actually make a valuable decision, recognizing the source of happiness and the source of sorrow. This does not mean that happiness will become altogether desirable, yet your preferences will move more towards that which gives you a sense of wholeness.” Moving through the second stage of development is about moving from a chaotic sense of free-will to a peaceful state of no-choice while acting in the light of the highest Truth one finds in life. This is of course a deeply spiritual and instructive process for anyone, and for humanity it usually comes in later years, at the moment of death, or to those with a devout spiritual practice. But this must be made available to more individuals now as it’s not something to have to wait until you’re actually dying to figure out. This can indeed be a challenging learning process in a world that is forgetting Knowledge, where poor decisions are made out of tremendous existential fear and where historical grievances can be greatly agitated and brought to the surface. Though the springing forth of Truth can be that much more delightful and transformative if it can take hold and begin to steadily progress a world through the second stage and more toward a third stage expression of Knowledge. Knowledge and one’s relationship with it is the common thread within any stage of development. This leads me to emphatically support the work of Anthony William whose work has helped and is helping so many millions around the world with chronic illness. I’ve personally healed many issues after a private session with him in 2014 which truly saved my life, though my own transformative story isn’t really the subject here. Anthony is like a fully awake Edgar Casey who’s been drinking from the firehose since age 4 when he started hearing a Voice perfectly clear outside of him that always referred to itself as the Spirit of the Most High, that it is Compassion itself at the very fingertip of God. From the beginning this Voice has been giving him extremely advanced and highly detailed medical information about the health and well-being of literally everyone around him no matter what the circumstances, often using medical terms Anthony had to learn because he couldn’t understand them or even pronounce them at such young ages. It hasn’t stopped for a single day since it started which has been difficult for him growing up, and it still can be, but the gift is greater than anything you can imagine in terms of getting the Pillar of Health in order, which will greatly impact every other Pillar of Life for an individual. Here health is essential for activating and participating with one’s purpose in life. Anthony’s now 6 books (which he started writing in 2014 after over 35 years of working one-on-one with over 200,000 people) are dense medical textbooks. They are not flimsy new age pamphlets, though he does have important sections on spirituality and meditations for healing. These books dive deeply into the nature and reality of viruses, bacteria, toxins, which ones are causing us the most trouble, how to address a myriad of different symptoms and illnesses, how to fully heal and maintain health, how the body really works, how to safely cleanse various toxins and viral debris from the body, what to avoid, what to bring in, etc. It’s a treasure to have this information during this time of great confusion and divisiveness in the world of health where so many theories are passed around as fact and careers are made out of the manufacturing of trends both conventional and alternative. Anthony has been working with very open minded and competent doctors, surgeons, nurses and interns for over 35 years to help them solve their most difficult cases. He’s also been against what’s called the Pacification Program in the Allies of Humanity briefings from the beginning, meaning he rejects the teaching that all of your illnesses, symptoms and conditions are just in your head or that you manifested them with your emotions or from having the wrong beliefs. As stated earlier, this is a dangerous and manipulative belief system that’s being used to disempower humanity. There are real reasons why people are sick. Of course emotional stress can trigger underlying issues and can be a significant cofactor with certain conditions, but it is never the sole cause. Emotional stress lowers the immune system, and opportunistic pathogens are waiting for those stress hormones as a signal to come out and proliferate, to shuttle around the body and to feed on any available toxins. It's just that some people are more toxic and/or viral than others, and some people are experiencing more or less stress than others depending on where they are in life. There's a great variety of symptoms and conditions these combinations can lead to, but it is important never to blame yourself for any illness you may be experiencing. Of course when you feel good the immune system is working much better, and tapping into a shamanic reality with different healing modalities has helped many people. The mind and emotions are indeed very powerful things, but your mind and emotions are not the sole creators of reality, and your beliefs do not form the foundation of reality. This is actually what the intervention wants you to believe. There are many who have tried every "shift your belief" technique out there and though it may have helped in many ways, they're still suffering with their chronic symptoms and conditions. They're made to feel that they must be "bad people" if they can't heal themselves with their minds, that they're faulty, or that this must be a "spiritual lesson" they've brought upon themselves. But they're not bad people, they're not faulty, and it is not a "spiritual lesson," at least not in the ways they're being taught. The world is more toxic and polluted than its ever been in history, and more people are sick with conditions now than has ever occurred in history. This is not simply in your imagination, and it’s not because you’re refusing to look at the bright side of life. Some might think that having brain fog all the time is normal, or that having anxiety and depression all the time is normal. But it’s not normal. Women are told having fibroids is normal and that having debilitating cycles is normal (both symptoms of the reproductive system trying to clean itself and protect itself from viruses and toxins, which can be safely and easily cleaned out), and if you develop conditions and symptoms later in life, your doctor may tell you that it’s just a normal part of aging. But none of this is normal, and it doesn’t have to be normal. There is so much confusion around illness, and especially chronic illness, which is why Anthony’s work is so important for the world at this time. And as Anthony has alluded to many times, things are only going to get much worse in the very near future. When it comes to acute medicine and trauma, modern medicine is amazing. They can reattach your arm if they need to. Amazing strides are taking place, for example with extremely precise robotic brain surgery to carefully remove aneurysms. But sadly there are very great mistakes in judgment being made concerning all manner of chronic and degenerative illnesses, what’s really causing them, and especially how to treat them. One theory that keeps recycling itself is the autoimmune theory, the theory that your body is attacking itself. Anthony reveals that this is a conventional blunder of epic proportions, among many others, but notice how it’s still just blaming you in the end. You’re either doing it all to yourself spiritually (alternative) or your body is attacking itself (conventional). Either way it looks pretty bleak for you. Or you’re just a “genetic blunder,” that’s another thing they would love for you to believe, they being the individuals funding research to only go in certain directions to protect their interests and investments. It’s nasty business, but this is not a conspiracy on the part of good doctors and other healthcare practitioners who only want to help and are working in the field every day. This is what it means to be a practitioner, that you have to be practicing. If you’re out of practice but have a few billion dollars and a big fat idea, you could feasibly create some serious problems for a whole lot of people while thinking your actions are pure and out of the goodness of your own heart. This is another demonstration of a world without Knowledge. Things are simply mismanaged and misunderstood from the inception of anything which makes it look like a grand conspiracy is taking place. The only conspiracy is people without Knowledge making decisions, which is a very dangerous and precarious situation for any world. The inherent difficulty of the second stage of development can be greatly exacerbated during transitions such as this. Errors are felt more deeply and sharply. At times it can seem that doom itself is staring one in the face. But this provides great opportunities for advancement as one is given the power of decision in the second stage, that is to progressively move in the direction of one’s true purpose which feels more right and correct than any other experience in life. This is what it means to move beyond preference, where committing the same errors simply isn’t an option anymore. The Pillar of Work Some kind of work must be done for Knowledge to express itself in the world; some kind of craft, some kind of service.... something. Sometimes work can look different than how we might imagine it since it evolves as we evolve. Before we become stable at higher levels with the four Pillars of Life, there may be different compromises and compensations we’ve made in the past that need to be addressed. Taking the Steps to Knowledge, especially over many years, addresses this in a very thorough, patient, in-depth and consistent manner, allowing for the greatest possible opportunity to advance at key junctures in your development. If the other three Pillars were in somewhat good condition, but the Pillar of Work was underdeveloped, what might the compensation look like? It might look like a hippie commune of sorts; An idealistic community that seems to have a spiritual side, seems to have tight relationships, and may be very healthy. But, they are not doing real significant work in the world. In fact communes are often centered around needing to escape the world or even shunning the world. They might talk about a better world, they might dream and fantasize about a better world, but it’s just not happening in the world because they’re avoiding it. “It’s too corrupt.” “It’s too far gone.” “People are too stupid,” “Society sucks.” etc., etc. Of course they may be compassionately sustaining themselves, but they’ve abandoned the world nonetheless. This actually creates an environment where all the tune out, drop out, “life is just a movie” attitudes can congregate, though they will not necessarily flourish. They’re stalling, and this stalling often concerns the Pillar of Work. The mountain of Knowledge can look different to different people. It can look different at different elevations and on different sides to different people. Each person climbing this mountain will have a slightly different view or experience, or even a drastically different one depending on where they are in life and what they’re doing. But it’s still the same mountain and the summit is still the same guiding light. Your work might look different from someone else’s work, and your work may look different three years in the future than it does right now. Evolution and adaptation are important in the development of the four Pillars. Everything changes in Separation, that is its nature, but your calling and your purpose remains the same throughout. Knowledge adapts to changing situations and circumstances easily, one simply needs to be paying attention and advancing. If you’re a hermetic type, work can take on different meanings. This is due to the different timescales it takes for certain actions to unfold and also the great variance in our experience of time itself. One may need to wait and feel great inner restraint whereas others may seem to be pressing onward. This can lead to confusion in the individual but it is normal and plays a role in how we develop and eventually get to the third stage of development with the expression of Knowledge in deeply established relationships. This is where life and personality profile studies can be useful, though their usefulness should not become dogmatic. In fact very much the opposite. They are indeed a privilege to know, but moving beyond them is extremely important. They are not a proper diagnostic tool for health conditions, that’s number one, and number two they’re actually very limited in their effectiveness in daily life. To move beyond the obsession of your person means you’re moving beyond the constraints of Separation and trusting in something else. The limitations are still there, but your experience of them begins to change. This movement beyond personal obsession actually enhances one’s individual talents and abilities greatly, because they’re meant to be given to others. Finding this deeper relationship with life cannot be mapped out or planned by the mind. The mind can only come to know it and serve it through experience. This is the true path beyond one’s separated self, though the individual life is still integral for this relationship to work. Paraphrasing Marshall Vian Summers: “The meaning of life is not to be happy, it is service. Those who think it is to be happy are easily misled and seduced by the world and will ignore the calling of their own souls in order to achieve their goals.” This is very succinct and to-the-point. Your uniqueness is meant to contribute something unique, not for the mind to obsess over and watch like it’s an interesting movie or to use for its own devices and ideas of itself. Getting beyond systems of knowledge then becomes necessary for Knowledge to develop in many ways. This doesn’t mean one throws away their knowledge of systems and never uses them, it’s that they’re respecting and following a deeper intelligence that’s altogether beyond systems. This deeper intelligence uses and fully integrates your individuality with the world and does not sanctify it's isolation. It can use systems, but it does not rely upon them. There is a deeper relationship with life and with other individuals that’s essential to fulfilling one’s purpose. One does not control this in any way and cannot really take systems too seriously or literally in all cases concerning these deeper subjects, or else one's idea of "correctness" and the various “rules of living” one adopts truly become a hindrance and a hazard on the path to one's greater Life, not a blessing or liberation. It isn’t all just about you in other words, even if you think you have all the facts and everything mapped out perfectly. Certain concepts and ideas that are proliferated in all kinds of systems of knowledge do not necessarily control human destiny or represent universal truth in the ways they’re being taught. It’s not the thing that’s the thing, it’s the No-thing that’s the thing with knowledge. It’s the infinite unknown variable. That’s where you come from. That’s what you’re being initiated into. Now you’re just separated and acting like you have no idea what’s going on, though Knowledge is still within you. Ideas and concepts are important and useful in the approach to Knowledge. Throughout the 365 steps in the Steps to Knowledge curriculum, the word “idea” is used 141 times. One is constantly asked to consider this idea, explore that idea, get used to this idea, examine one’s ideas, and so forth. When ideas help point a way toward Knowledge they are a blessing and form an important part of one’s practice. The mind is like the body in this way in that it needs to be active; it needs to stretch and exercise. It simply needs to understand the true order of things and not get confused, which can be a great hazard for all intelligent life in Separation. So one cannot really proclaim “I should be doing this” or “I should be doing that,” no matter how much you think you know. Knowledge will show you what you should be doing, and it will shift and evolve over time. The Pillar of Relationships Relationships are all important in life. Everything is built on relationships. Some relationships are inappropriate and can hinder one’s progress, but we’re allowed to enter them anyway. Others are extremely beneficial and essential. From Secrets of Heaven, page 16: “There are many wonderful delays on your journey, but they are not wonderful because they are delays.” Even if we make poor decisions in life, Knowledge is still the guiding light and true instruction is still possible. There is a greater learning in making mistakes, though the errors of intelligent life can at times seem to go far beyond the scale of correction. This can certainly seem like a frightening situation, but another quote from Secrets of Heaven, page 88, reads: “It is essential that the world undergo its transition into the Greater Community. It is the end of childhood, and with it many things will pass. Do not be concerned with complete destruction, for that is not the way of things. Be concerned instead with supporting the world through this state of transition.” And also from page 277: "Many of you have had experiences of unequivocal Knowledge in the face of great trial. This is an aspect of the great Power we speak of, except that we wish to cultivate it in the face of more peaceful circumstances." A transition like this will always engender a recognition of Knowledge in some way, bringing one to a place of no-choice in a world of seemingly endless choices and options, especially concerning relationships. No-choice liberates one to recognize Knowledge as one’s deeper Self, not just a personal self with worries, wishes, beliefs and ideas about itself and the world. The Knowledge within you is resolute in its purpose, which is also your purpose; to reclaim Knowledge in the world and to serve the world through deeply established relationships. These relationships stretch far beyond human life. All life shares in Knowledge, for Knowledge is indeed within all life. The choices we make in life do not reflect poorly on who we are beyond Separation, and Knowledge never condemns us here for Knowledge knows we would only fail without its presence. Knowledge allows us to make decisions and then allows us to reap the consequences of those decisions. In becoming more like Knowledge by learning to abide with it, one begins to allow the world to be as it is, like Knowledge does. This doesn’t mean one condones misbehavior and poor judgement, and neither does Knowledge. It means one accepts the conditions as they are, effectively disarming idealism and false expectation which allows one to be fully present for Knowledge to emerge and to contribute to the world beyond ones notions or ideas about what that must look like. This again very much concerns the second stage of development, learning through contrast and discovering what Knowledge is as opposed to what it isn’t. Relationships here can be experienced very intensely, relationships both with Knowledge and relationships without Knowledge. It can be rather confusing moving through the second stage where one begins to feel the promise and the glow of the third stage, the expression of Knowledge, while also trying to avoid the traps and mistakes of the first stage, the denial of Knowledge, where one is still trying to use the world or hide within it. During the second stage one actually experiences both the first and third stages in different amounts so as to allow the individual to make better decisions, eventually landing them in a place of no-choice and true freedom as a result of their advancement. This sorting out process actually takes many years and does not simply occur overnight. The desire for an overnight quick fix concerning one’s development here has become known colloquially as spiritual bypassing. Spiritual bypassing is when an individual tries to go from the first stage to the third stage while skipping the second stage entirely, or at least greatly underestimating it. This is a very real phenomenon in the world that is much more prevalent than one might think. It’s also closely tied to the intervention’s presence here and the rolling out of the Pacification Program. Spiritual bypassing truly forms the backbone of all Pacification Program teaching. From Secrets of Heaven, page 143: “...The reclamation of spiritual powers is a very serious matter, one that has grave consequences if you err on its behalf. It is for this reason that when people ask how to regain power and purpose, for they are the same, we always speak of a procedure. You cannot jump ahead of where you are, and you must establish a firm foundation if you are to proceed wisely.” Almost no area in life has more idealism and false expectation surrounding it than relationships, which makes getting into the second stage of life and sorting out what’s true from what’s false that much more important. Pacification Program teachings encourage one to make the same relationship mistakes over and over again even though it’s always portrayed very innocently as simply “manifesting a new boyfriend” or “finding the perfect match” or “getting what you want.” It’s attempting to perpetually lock you within a first stage frame of mind so that any real sorting and discernment in life doesn’t actually take place. They want you hung up on fantasies about romance. They want you to view life as nothing but entertainment, that you’re only here on a brief vacation. Almost every love song that’s ever been written is about a relationship that actually didn’t work out. This is the problem with idealizing love and relationships. Without Knowledge all one has is their ideas and ideals as motivation for action. Is it any wonder this so often leads to tragic losses of time and energy? Relationships without Knowledge can be some of the most wasteful expressions of human ignorance and misguidance. All kinds of relationships can suffer here, even one’s true relationship with God and their Spiritual Family. Though they represent a bond that can never be broken, mistakes in Separation concerning relationships can slow one’s progress greatly, sidelining people for their entire lives in many cases. Even relatively minor brushes with bad relationships can leave one exhausted and wanting to give up on relationships altogether. So the first stage can indeed be difficult. But when meaningful and beneficial relationships begin to be developed and cultivated in the second stage due to greater discernment and a growing desire for Knowledge, the ground is steadily prepared for Relationships of Higher Purpose to emerge, which is what the third stage is all about. All meaningful teaching in this is found in earnestly taking the Steps to Knowledge and in applying oneself to study the New Message, for it indeed has a message for you about life, relationships, love, and what these things really mean in a rapidly changing world.
