When we feel that something's not quite right, that there are too many unanswered questions, that something's still missing - we begin to scrutinize the state and we try and force an outcome - something has to change and we try and make it change.
This is what's happening in Islam today with the fundamentalists. They're trying to control people and force their ideology upon them, which unfortunately results in oppression and violence. (Christianity went through something similar).
There's no coercion in spirituality because it has to do with freedom of choice. We're presented with The Truth and it's up to us to do with it what we choose. It's not force upon us coercively.
The frequency of fear and oppression is different than the frequency of love and peace. We can feel it viscerally. It resonates in us as a sensation that we can actually feel.
We are emotional creatures and we pick up on these subtle nuances, without our explicit awareness and even beyond our understanding.
When we hear The Truth, we KNOW it, it resonates in us, we feel it in our gut. There's just something about it that rings true.
Change is upon us. Something's wrong and we all know it. It's in the air, we know that something's going to happen. Some people are going to try and force an outcome, which will only end badly.
The only solution is connection. What's wrong is that we're immersed in selfishness when it's time for us to be in bestowal. We have to change from personal selfishness to mutual bestowal. We have to seek to benefit others instead of ourselves.
Do not be afraid, God is with us.
