Pushing into the Light

entire existence is a manifestation
of the impulse to pure Light/Love/Truth.

we originate from it and return to it
in order for IT to know itself, a mystery
to the undeveloped

the origins of humankind are not as is taught,
monkeys remain monkeys as is evident today;
humans, in the push to the Light
in this particular dimension
possess a free consciousness with which
they are either perfected on this earth
or drowned in its dense material qualities;
nevertheless, we learn through experience
and progress or fall according to our
behaviours, mental and physical, as the spirit
never varies, it is that inviolate spark of creation,
pure and ineffable, beyond comprehension
by the limited, finite mind

indeed, the pattern in our dimension
is perfect as are the laws of existence
on every plane
though various challenges confront all souls
here and elsewhere

though here it is simple, light or darkness,
make your choice and pursue what you already
know to be the correct course, selflessness
and service without expectation of reward,
as the reward is in the act itself

how easy to understand what we already know to be true,
you see i am not beguiled, as i am human;
we all ‘asked,’ some not ‘voluntarily,’ to be where
the most favourable conditions exist for our evolution,
and my brothers and sisters, we all chose earth at this stage
of our journey toward the most exalted

you have been promised by that Light, expressing itself
through those that have attained, that you are assisted
in every way if you turn your face and heart to the Light --
and so we all face the challenge of overcoming dense material
desires/follies and so it is

no leaders are required and no followers
we already know, it’s just a matter of expression,
be brave, and remember that no coward or mental slave
has ever entered paradise --

rise, overcome every tribulation and challenge
that we in actuality have invited as a result of previous actions;

we are not cursed we are in fact blessed,
surrender and nurture the all-knowing/Loving Light within
and nothing is able to resist that process/direction.

this is the distilled story of humankind (consciousness) on this plane --
we must overcome to be Free, as freedom cannot be gifted or granted
by anyone/thing, it must be Earned, perfection is our responsibility alone,
we know it

wage peace if you would attain peace,
express Love unconditionally if you would be enveloped by it,
and so it goes for everything
