Out from the breaches of the innermost city, scurry our thoughts, in and out, with preponderance, questions and doubt … this metropolis of thought vies for the attention of the soul.
And the inner man discriminates as well as he might in contrast and competition to that which impedes the consciousness from without. It is not a struggle, yet it is a contest.
And only the energetic thinker may succeed within the modern world today.
One might have imagined that the process of thinking and the receiving of thought would have been clarified as the individual gains knowledge of self, and his comprehension grows accordingly. However, the conditions of the outer world have somewhat changed and it is as though the frequencies have been altered.
The bearings of a man (although the same as they ever were) now need to adjust in order to understand and interpret what lays all about him.
And to ask if this has been an organic change, or even one in which the gods have contrived, the honest answer to this would be no, no - this is an interference of sorts.
One often may wonder where has the commonsense gone? Why is it that individuals have lost their bearings when it comes to a simple morality, a plain decision, a generous heart?
And one of the answers no less moderate is that their very thinking has been interfered with to such an extent that they do not know what they know, they cannot see what they see, they cannot hear what they hear.
The majority of individuals within the world are confused and derelict. The light does not shine on morals as it would, nor on the spirit and soul of others, for everything and everyone is a fraction, just a fraction, divorced from their true selves.
And so with what ordinarily would have become natural - i.e. to find goodness in the light and in the food, and to perceive through eyes of knowledge and of love - these natural talents God-given need to be rediscovered whilst walking this world.
In the spiritual worlds however, things are as they are, and have always been, and the difficulties just described do not exist.
Given half a chance the spirit comes to many realizations simply, emphatically, and magnificently and does not need to toil to arrive at the most wondrous portals of further knowledge.
And so this seeping disconnect between the consciousness in worldly life and the consciousness beyond, brings about a certain sadness and loneliness in all.
It is a state of discontent most natural to the problem just described.
And of course the more one leads a spiritual life with contemplations that take the consciousness up and out and into that realm the more one finds their coordinates to truth and to beauty and to wisdom.
The greater picture involves the kingdoms of Man to regain their bearings within the world and to stop the interference coming in from without.
There is a veritable noise that comes from the demonic infiltration sadly … it is not a noise to be heard as such, but it is as a noise that is disharmonious, interruptive, and overbearing.
For the weak-minded such interference is painful and overwhelming and often leads to further corruption.
This topic is not an easy one, but it cited in order that we can understand the difficulties of modern man today when one wonders about the confusion and loss of soul.
There are short term remedies and further on we will adjust. For the while we may steady ourself going forth with honesty as this will give one a firm railing to hold when the bearings are confused; and generosity as this is the work of the heavenly hierarchies (all heaven) when we give to one another in kindness, in thoughtfulness, in sharing.
It is not goodness for goodnesses sake alone (which of course will carry one well regardless) but goodness also for practicality in an environment that is waylaid with the heaviness of selfishness and confusion.
Goodness is not sentimental, nor for winning the favour of the higher realms - goodness is the direct passport into the higher realms - and it is the only way to save this world.
