Societal Devices


We all go through our lives thinking that we are free and liberated, that we have it together and know what we are doing. 

All the while subtle and insidious devices are at play , most of which we are totally unaware of . 

We are programmed all the time by our media, the church, society, to be Jealous, to compare what we have or don't have to others. To achieve in all fields, make more money, have a better house, car, to have bigger boobs or  penis or  muscles etc. All these devices are distractions which use up our vital energy. But we have been so well programmed to think that it's normal to be jealous, envious, angry , unworthy, etc.

" Everything has energy - Fear, anger, Jealousy, Hate. You are unaware of the fact that these things are wasting your life " Osho . 

" Comparison is a very foolish attitude, because each person is unique and incomparable. Once this understanding settles in you , Jealousy disappears ." Osho 

Worthiness and desirability are 2 things which seem to be coming up for people a lot these days . Especially when involved with deep healing work or any Shamanic work like visions quests or Sweat Lodges etc. 

I see it as no co-incidence that as more people are waking up and clearing away the dross that they have been carrying for years if not lifetimes,  that these feelings are surfacing. 

We have been programmed for centuries by the Church and the class system to feel unworthy and not deserving of all that the Infinite Universe provides us with. The natural order of the Multiverse is Abundance. 

" From the very beginning you are being told to compare yourself with others. This is the greatest disease, it is like a cancer that goes on destroying your very soul, because each individual is unique, and comparison is not possible " - Osho . 

The devices are at play all the time. Another big one is Fear. 

Fear of other races, religions, our neighbours, incurable diseases , poverty, lack. Now we have ads on radio asking us to report anything suspicious because apparently there are " Terrorists " everywhere. But it is for your protection. 

" Contentment is not the fulfilment of what you want, but the realisation of what you already Have " -Anonymous 

If we stopped wasting our time and energy on pursuing what we feel we need to be or have in order to be happy and content, we will start waking up and seeing what is and discovering what has been suppressed for centuries.

 " You are infinite Light, and Beauty and Love, living in a human body for an exceptionally short amount of time " - Laura Jaworski

See what really is going on , stop judging yourself and others, stop all comparison, envy, jealousy , all these things come from Fear. Be in the Heart, develop a state of Gratitude , Grace and Giving .
