Universal Awareness

Who are we and what on earth are we doing here? This is the million dollar question. “Universal Awareness” was written to enlighten our thoughts with some possibilities that will provide insights for us to consider. To bring awareness, not force beliefs or viewpoints on others. To bring a peaceful way of living in our personal lives as well as implementing peace in our world making it a better place to live. 
We all have definite mindsets. Our very thoughts originate from things we’ve seen, been taught or have read. We develop our beliefs based on this. We create mental pictures and formulate them into what we choose to believe whether they are true or false. Any kind of organization or religion can be birthed from mindsets with a common thread. 
The problems enter when these institutions are established and bind others by creating creeds, promises, oaths, pledges and a host of other things. Unfortunately when religions function with certain prejudices and beliefs everyone is to adhere to, they are functioning as God for everyone else and in many cases use fear to control others. Whenever an individual is impacted by fear or control, those implementing this have not yet realized our mental images and die-hard beliefs can be inaccurate or mistaken when it comes to factual evidence. 
We must allow each individual to seek explicit direction from Divine Source rather than assuming to be the superior source receiving communication from God’s mouth to our ear. No human is the direct channel possessing all explanations and understanding for everyone. A finite intelligence cannot compete with infinite intelligence. Enlightenment from God is in the awareness of the beholder. 
I do realize there are many people who do not embrace a belief in God and I would hope those individuals would not base that decision on certain mindsets from others or concepts that I believe have misrepresented a Source with Divine Intelligence. If anyone believes that God created us, then we must know a Divine Intelligence does not make junk. If we originated from a Divine Being we certainly would acknowledge we came from a Source of Excellence. When we realize this, it will revolutionize our life. 
It is my strong impression that anyone who states we are less has not yet realized the depth of Divine Love this Source of Spirit encompasses. We must be careful of the image created for us when man makes God in his image because that blemishes everything else. Once we are awakened to the understanding we were created in the image of God, we begin to realize and awaken to who we really are. I sincerely believe when we do not grasp the magnitude of this wonderful revelation, we become a dysfunctional society. We need to be very cautious and avoid using God as a punishing stick. That image has caused untold damage on our planet and is born out of fear and depictions without understanding. 
These impaired images or mindsets create all sorts of dysfunctional behavior on earth. Once they are imbedded in a mind it can cause individuals to create all types of erroneous concepts. The problem is many of these notions are seriously dangerous and harmful to others. One of the worst experiences anyone goes through is losing a loved one through violence and then trying to understand why someone would commit such an act. I only know that love has truly evaded these individuals. It saddens me to realize they never reached or understood a true “God Connection.” 
I believe many people have no desire to make a “God Connection” because they have been given some ungodly image of a Being who punishes us every time we make a mistake or poor choice. This is one of the worst descriptions of God I have ever heard, plus an insult. I was taught that “God is Love” but He is also a God of justice and that is why we must be punished. I do not agree with that concept because unconditional love is not based on behavior conditional love is. Our Chastisement comes from the “sowing and reaping” of our own choices. It is a built-in justice system in our universe. Unfortunately many times the innocent become victims of those who made very harmful decisions. This is why we are not robots on this planet and we must learn to choose love over hate, otherwise the harm continues. For this reason we cannot blame God. 
The reason our world is in chaos on so many levels is due to ego’s that have not chosen to learn to harness them. Ego is a very difficult aspect of our make-up or energy. Ego wants the spotlight which creates a major problem when you have several egos’ wanting that same attention. Most everyone wants this to some level, but the key to avoid chaos and attain peace in our world is awareness of the ego and how it operates. When mankind makes the choice to implement unconditional love over ego, peace will be a reality. 
If we cannot learn to dialogue in peace when we disagree, or go to war in order to force an agreement we will never achieve world peace. It can only be attained by mankind’s choice to agree or not agree in harmony. That can be accomplished through love and respect for one another. On that foundation a solution can be achieved and peace is possible. When we are unable to resolve an issue, ego has reigned supreme. True humility and maturity does not demand a “my way” or “no way” attitude. Most times in conflicts people only see one side, their side. Whatever side one sees is certainly the side they feel is right. It is the truth as we see it, but then again, truth may not be fact. 
We are all accountable to explore truth for ourselves. My encouragement to everyone is to “walk in love” not fear. If we are fearful that if we do not conform to what we have been taught to believe or we will go to a very bad place separated from God, the first thing we must do is release all that negative fear. Next, we ask to be led to the truth by Divine Wisdom, whether it fits our current theology or not. It is truth we are exploring here, not theology. 
Learning to harness the energy within us is a key to peace on earth. Our monitor is the ego. If our ego becomes inflated or out of control, our energy does as well. If we examine our ego by realizing what our motives are and they are addressed truthfully, we can then learn how to harness our energy in positive, peaceful, harmonizing ways for good, rather than negative, harmful, or destructive ways toward ourselves and others. Our energy has a lighter, higher element to it that is able to create when we channel it in a positive direction. It also has a denser, lower element that can create and channel its energy in negative areas. The choice is ours. 
Our energy is powerful! It can create positive or negative results. This is the reason positive things can be created and set in motion and why negative things can be created and set in motion in our lives and on our planet. All of us have a great deal of energy in our beings. Christ taught this very powerful revelation when He said, “The kingdom of God is within you.” This understanding has become obscured due to misinterpretation and certain mindsets regarding ancient texts. The more we realize God is “unconditional love” and what that means, we will begin a journey on a path of self-discovery. We will have the keys to unlock our true self and our true purpose on earth. We will be “set free” to become all we were meant to be. 
Always remember that God is Perfect Unconditional Love and those things coming from Divine Love and Intelligence is love-based, not fear-based
