Allowing the Unconscious to Lead?

Tuesday, July 10, 2012

This morning, I am contemplating a question that has come to me several times before – Why is it that those of us who are even somewhat conscious allow those who are primarily unconscious to lead us?  This has gone on for hundreds of years - probably due to a severe numbers disadvantage, resulting in persecution, imprisonment and outright murder.  (I’m sure each of us has played a part on each “side”.)  However, we have come into a new time and the energy supporting something different is vibrant and strong.  It’s time for the Conscious to step forward, release our fear, let go of our history, stand tall in what we know to be true and do what needs to be done. 

Though the practice of religion many times appears to be a Sunday event – spirituality is not.  It is a part of who we are – it is the foundation of who we are.  It permeates our lives at every level.  We can not be separated from it.  It’s a part of home…work…crying…laughing…sports…art…music… sweeping the floor…doing the dishes…taking out the trash… leading a country…heading an organization…or “growing” a family.  “Separation of church and state” does not apply to spirituality – spirituality is beyond the “man-made”.  Spirituality is the essence of the unalienable rights including Life…Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.  These are spiritual values of the highest vibration and beyond the beliefs created by Mankind.  Those who recognize their roots as spiritual beings with certain unalienable rights can no longer be controlled or “herded.”   

It seems, therefore, that “laws” are never above the dictates or call of one’s soul – our connection to the Divine.  The fact that we have many times ignored or abandoned this call is why there is so much unhappiness…so much war…so much disease…etc., etc., etc.  Each of us contributes when we ignore the call of Truth…the call of the soul…the longing deep within us to be who we really are.

These ideas are not separate from government.  They are deeply rooted in the foundation of this great nation – a nation teetering on the edge of collapse.  The time has come to  re-connect to the values and ideals associated with the founding of this country - independence…equality…life…liberty…the pursuit of happiness.  It’s time to recognize the unalienable right to consciousness and to summon our inner courage to speak…lead…facilitate change and role model the new and unfolding. 

It seems like these are things we can all rally around.  Perhaps, it’s the foundation for something new - birthed from the inside-out?  Perhaps, we can focus on finding, uplifting and supporting conscious candidates, choosing to expand the possibilities beyond the two to which we have limited ourselves.  Perhaps, we can all pull together to demand something different from those currently holding office, things like  - collaboration;  co-creative solutions; debating to reach Truth rather than “wins”;  trusting inner/higher guidance, stepping beyond the party mentality; summoning courage, integrity and honor.

I believe we have a choice beyond Republicans, Democrats or any of the off-shoots.  I believe we can choose to support Consciousness as we choose to re-connect to our roots.    It’s time for the Conscious to step-up and lead, no longer shrinking to fit the “much-too-small” world of the “not-yet-awakened”.  It may take time but it can happen….I know it can…

Much love,
