Traditional thinking becomes negative when is success driven
Compromise often over rules soul needs of emotional evolution
Happiness can come in only whenw e strop worrying
Worry is often created when we fail to meet success needs
Dinosaurs were creatures which monopolised space
They had to be revamped for humanity to get space
Similarly, The NEW AGE brings in souls who are advanced in need
They need space in minds and environments without being success driven
Our lives revolve around
traditions we imbibe in Childhood. Most
of these traditions are carried over from childhood . We get conditioned into
thinking in line with the institutional structures we are made to follow.
My book IN SEARCH OF HAPPINESS
is about how the soul repeats the same mistakes over life-times because the institutional
structures he grows up in are very slow to change. The soul feels defeated at
the end of each life though the body is publicly acknowledged as successful .
The soul mission remains
unaccomplished as long as he strives to get success and power while grossly
ignoring soul needs .
The lead character of the Book is
named DEV . The book is based on real past life case history. The following sections are deleted from the
published book due to the length considerations and are being posted here for
those who need .
‘Are we mentally jailed under Dinosauric institutions?’
Dev’s second past life session
brought up another common problem which is one of the main causes of existence
of negative energy in the world.
The problem is that of our need
to follow institutionalization without questioning or allowing change in the
set norms. We have structured our life around a wall of institutions like schooling, marriage, armies, and health
services, which set the norms of how we should live our lives.
These norms are largely focused
on achieving external measures of success, as defined by conventional
doctrines, irrespective of whether these measures satisfy our core soul needs
or not.
So, we want our children to go to
school even if the syllabus taught may not help them understand what they need
to learn to achieve happiness in life. We want armies to protect our countries
even though maintaining armies uses funds which could otherwise be used for
intellectual and emotional development of human beings. We follow health
services which do not take into account the soul lessons involved behind
recurring problems. And, we want to settle down in marriage with partners even
though, marriage, as it exists today in several countries, tends to inhibit
freedom of thought and expression instead of fostering it.
These institutions block soul
evolution because of their resistance to change. They don’t accept new thought
necessary for expanding horizons of the human mind towards a happier world.
Because these institutions exist
and we feel compelled to follow them we feel like victims of negative circumstances.
As evolving souls, we feel jailed
at energy levels due to repeatedly feeling mentally suppressed, even though we
are not physically jailed.
These institutions can be called
the DINOSAURS of society, because they are big in terms of the influence they
exert and slow in terms of their ability to change.
If we were to give a shape to the
energy concept of these institutions, they would appear like huge, rigid,
Dinosauric thought forms.
Like Dev refused to disobey
orders , we hold these institutions as sacred. We make our choices around our
base foundations. Like him, usually, we too go by the label of the institution
irrespective of whether the label justifies the ideals of the profession or
not. Hence, whether a person chooses to be a soldier, a teacher, a doctor, or a
homemaker, s/he rarely finds herself/himself doing what s/he intended to do, by
joining the institutional set up of that profession.
For example:
Army—a soldier swears to fight
for the people when he joins the army. Yet, very often, he ends up fighting for
beliefs which do not help the common man achieve justice. He is not allowed to
look into the deeper aspects of the war—like whether the war he fights is
justified from the perspective of the weak and oppressed or whether the
terrorists he kills have been unjustly exploited earlier.
The soldier chooses to give in to
circumstances and not to think because, at an individual level, he finds the
whole structure of the army too huge to fight against alone. He bends under the
Dinosaur and allows it to continue ruling.
Instead, if funds used for
maintaining armies could be used for fostering development of human conscience
and intellect, there may be no more need of opting for wars to resolve
problematic issues.
Schools—Like the army,
schooling is a base structure of our society. It lays foundations for adult
lives. But, a teacher is usually, unable, to help kids develop coping skills
for the emotional demands of adulthood.
We rarely use more than 30% of
the theoretical concepts we study in schools in our professional lives but we
use up a good deal of our precious founding years learning subject details
which would not be relevant to us when we grow up and enter jobs or businesses.
How many of us need to know how
fractions and trigonometry sums are solved or the distance of the Sun from the
Earth in exact units or the type of algae that grow in water? Why is it
relevant to teach all this when more important emotional learning skills need
to be inculcated?
Instead of spending hours on
lecturing about traditional subjects, concepts like stress management, love for
fellow humans, understanding inner talents etc. can be practically taught which
would help kids create positivity in their lives?
Most schools almost run like
armies. Pupils are expected to obey authority without questioning it. The slow
method of teaching a mass class causes frustration in several students who
process information quicker than others. The need to develop patience to sit in
a class-room often feels unnecessary especially to the brighter students. When
forced upon, it may lead to violence among students who are otherwise,
traumatized by having to study subjects they hardly find meaningful. Ritual is
given priority over reason since the need to study becomes a ritualistic
tradition than the need of the hour for the little, evolving minds.
Students and teachers are
encouraged to blindly follow the Dinosauric institution of schooling, even if
it spreads more negative than positive, growth oriented energy.
Instead, if students could learn
from the beginning an open-ended syllabus which would also help them meet their
soul needs, along with studying what is required to achieve external success,
then their attitude towards learning would automatically become more positive.
Health—Like in other professions,
the doctor needs to look beyond the external body for understanding the core
need of the job he tries to do. He has to focus on the feelings underlying a
disease to be able to heal the person satisfactorily.
Medications and surgical
operations are very important because they help to clean existing clusters of
negative energy and fill in deficits of positive energy. But, if physical
problems are solved only by using medications people tend to ignore learning
their soul lessons. That defeats the soul and makes it want to leave the body.
Medicines heal temporarily but if
the emotional issues underlying persist, the problems repeat in the same form
or in another form.
Hence, people keep facing similar
kinds of body problems on a recurring basis, as they keep facing similar kinds
of emotional traumas. For instance, joint pain shifts from one part of the body
to another or skin disease and asthma alternate.
Energies of similar thoughts
multiply. People do not realize that the problem recurs not because of failure
of the medical system but because they do not raise their consciousness in tune
with their soul evolution needs.
If repeatedly suppressed by
medication, the emotional issue takes the form of a fatal disease because the
soul chooses to then leave the body and come back with the same emotional
unresolved lessons in a fresh body.
Doctors often suffer from stress
and anxiety problems because of their frustration in being unable to help the
patients get cured, as much as they would like to. Many of them start following
holistic healing techniques over a period of time, but most of them remain
bound under the constraints of their dinosauric medical institution.
For healing the soul, and the
body together, the worldly phenomenon need to be studied more from the energy
perspective than from the physically, tangible perspective. For the soul, which
cannot access the physical, tangible world the disease exists only in the form
of a low frequency thought or energy. So, for the thought to get healed and
transcended into positive, the external form needs to be sidelined so that one
can find out the reason behind the consistently, recurring negative thought
which manifests the physical disease.
Marriage—the institution of
marriage can be an important reason for negative thinking if two people choose
to be in a marriage for reasons other than love or mutual compatibility.
Staying married for the sake of children, money of convenience is not healthy
for the body or the soul. We suffer from physical diseases, depressions and
anxieties very often because we choose to stay with a person whose ideology
causes much conflict in our minds.
There is a constant focus on
negative aspects of life because we get entangled in arguments and blackmails.
The feeling of helplessness perpetuates the marriage. We have a core desire to
be loved and accepted which does not get satisfied by a marriage of
convenience. When love dies out, the frustration of being non-understood keeps
nagging us because we choose to stay married.
Yet, we like to believe the
marriage is satisfying its purpose by helping us live as a unit, just as Dev
chose to believe that being in the army would spread justice.
Any institution which spreads
more negative energy in our lives than positive needs to be reviewed, be it a
job, a course of study, a marriage or a medical treatment.
Learning to focus on what the
soul desires emotionally is necessary before choosing to continue on a
dysfunctional way of life.
We cannot attain the satisfaction
we desire from our efforts if the soul, the energy within us does not feel
satisfied with the outcome of our work. External rewards are meaningless if we
do not feel content internally.
Just following labels, and moving
in the shadow of dinosaurs, may not help us to achieve our purpose of life from
the soul’s perspective. We cannot expect happiness to automatically fall into
our laps if we do not make efforts to change our beliefs and structural
institutions which make us focus more on unhappiness.
All these institutions have to be
revamped and rebuilt in a way that the soul can learn its lessons and grow by
following them instead of having to slow down its evolution by feeling
constricted. Their present structure needs to become extinct with the coming
era just as Dinosaurs became extinct with the Ice ages so that a New Age could
set in.
At an individual level, we need
to know, like Dev had to, that we have the power to bring about a change in the
system. Each of our thoughts, which have a feeling entailed in it, impacts the
process of creation in the universe.
