There was a time in a galaxy far, far, away that you didn't have the luxury of "choosing" what to believe. The job at hand was to figure out what the truth was and believe in that — the truth.
Now, it seems we don't need to do that if we don't want to. Now we can choose — if we don't like an option, we can cast it aside and believe something else that makes us feel better. That way we can create the reality we want — or so we think.Truth doesn't matter anymore. In fact, to the people who are guilty of this choosing idea, there really is no "truth" per se, anything is game as long as we believe it. Might as well pick something pleasant.
This brings me to the popular spiritual tenet that you do indeed create your own reality. Obviously, this is too complex a topic to bring into this tiny article. Suffice it to say, I actually believe in this tenet, but it is difficult to explain, and definitely has some explaining to do before understanding it.
In this article I am not talking about this quantum idea of consciousness collapsing the wave potential. I am talking about how we navigate a material reality as a material being who has chosen to be part of this reality. If we are engaged in this manifest game, then we do have to stick to some material rules. That's all I will say about this so as not to confuse the issue beyond comprehension, which would be very easy to do.
However, I do believe that this "new age-y" way of thinking may have a major role in how we handle what we are facing today. And I wonder if, in its rather simplistic presentation (
only thinking about rainbows and unicorns when the world is falling apart) could be part of the agenda's original plan to send us all into never-never land so we don't take responsibility for the mess we have gotten into — or take on the responsibility of getting ourselves out of it.Just the other day I was talking to someone who has obviously chosen to live in the sunshine of positive thinking about the reality of the world today. She really didn't want to hear what I had to say about the real world but did listen carefully.
Finally, she said,
"That is pretty dark, I really don't want to see the world that way, so I will choose to see it differently."Really? Does she really have that option?
Comment: When codified, explicit 'Rights' exist in The United States Bill of Rights, The European Convention on Human Rights, The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the UN's The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and Nuremberg's The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, et cetera, et cetera. These Bill's, Declarations and Charters may sound good, something worthy to uphold that should not even need to be codified, being implicit in any functioning society - in "ways of life" (yet that is not how it works).
What has become more than apparent is indeed the plastics nature of 'Rights,' now subject to legal interpretive gymnastics at every turn, while being melted and molded to suit the condition (to name a few conditions: forced vaccines, disregard for parental life, childhood care and growth, and the right to freely speak). To wit, 'Rights,' if not legally enforced are no rights at all. Thus, the tyrannical erosion of Rights, or just plain old ignoring of them in favor of the managerial state, can now be seen in spades.
