Friends and Family,
Spring is here...Really!
There's no turning back for Mother Nature now that the extraordinary winter that we all experienced here in the northern part of the U.S. is behind us and everything is coming to life.
The natural law of nature has its cycles and we have entered a new one that it seemed to me to take a lot longer than usual to get to.
Laws are meant to be followed. They are here to keep harmony. Can you imagine if Mother Nature didn't follow her own laws, i.e., the natural cycles of the seasons? It would slowly affect everything: our food supplies; how we live; how we feel and much more.
Or better yet, what if the law of gravity didn't uphold itself? There would be total destruction. Stars and planets would fall from the sky. How would life exist?
So what do you think happens when we don't follow the natural laws of scriptures that were given to us to keep harmony?
This country was built on the laws within those laws found in the Bible. The constitution reflects those laws, as well.
Did it make it a perfect society? No. It wasn't meant to. It was meant to give us boundaries to grow within and penalties when we live outside those laws, because when others live outside the laws, it creates disruption for those that do.
There will always be people who feel they are above Laws.
People say that the Ten Commandments or the guidelines of Yama Niyama are punitive. They are there as guidelines so that a society that can live in as much harmony as possible in a world of duality. There will always be good and bad, hot and cold, joy and sadness...we can't have one without the other...therefore...the world of duality.
When people say the Ten Commandments and Yama Niyama are punitive or constrictive, it makes as much sense as me blaming the law of gravity for killing me if I jumped off a building.
Our society is slowly going down a path of deterioration because it is watering down the foundation on which this country was built. Today, people in certain places are penalized for mentioning the word God. Unless I'm mistaken, that was the very first principle of this new country; for everyone to be able express their own faith and belief.
So how can we change that course of deterioration? Go out and protest, sign petitions, boycott certain companies and establishments...maybe.
The real and lasting change will happen from within. That is what the Avatars, great Masters and Teachers have taught us.
I will share more on how we can make a difference if we want to help bring more peace and harmony into our world.
Happy May! And enjoy every bit of spring because you certainly deserve it!
Namaste,
Michael
