Let's cut to the chase. It has taken
me 40 years to work out what life on Planet Mirth is all about. For most of that time I was in a boring job,
and went along with what my society said was the right thing to do. But that tiny voice in my head would not leave
me alone.
And then my younger brother Ray
was murdered.
That's when I finally 'got
it'.
I am now 100% certain that I am going to die one day and
so is every other living creature, including YOU!
Just mull that FACT over in your mind for a few seconds. Are
you thinking, 'Yeah, so what? We all know that. But I am not worried about dying.'
There's the problem. We have been conditioned by our society
for thousands of years to deny/ ignore/ rationalise/ postpone death or invent lovely fairy tales to
create the illusion that there really isn't a problem. You simply go to heaven if you've been a good boy
or good girl or you come back as a dog, or you join the mysterious void of nothingness.
Boy, have we been
hoodwinked.
But after being violently jerked awake by my brother's tragic
death, and then studying evolution and many other things and observing nature I can see very clearly what a fix
humanity is in...and it's not our doing!
Evolution is a continuously creative and destructive process
that has had a few billion years on Planet Mirth to strut its stuff. What is it doing? Creating new forms,
destroying old ones. Then we were created. We are self-conscious creatures that know we will die one
day - unlike all other creatures who do not have the ability to foresee their own end. Or in crude terms...we
are gods and worms at the same time.
That's why I can look at my dog and feel sad that he will not
be around within a few years and yet he is not aware of this pretty vital fact and he cannot look at
me with that same sense of impermanence and compassion.
So here's the critical points when we seriously ponder
Evolution's Ridiculously Impossible Creation (ERIC or ERICA ie the Alternative female version. Whatever the
sex, the same end is foretold!):
Society and the individual are daily and
unconsciously hoodwinking each other to keep the big lie going
When an individual wakes up to the facts of existence,
rather than humanity's false beliefs, his consciousness will change, and this can be terribly
unsettling and confusing, but there is no going back
Awakened individuals are no longer wishing and hoping
and praying that everything will turn out all right, and they become their own light and create new
ways of living in the world and fear no-one because they have faced the ultimate fear - the fear
of death
So don't just accept things the way they are. You have the
power to change them. You are evolutions most ridiculously impossible creation. Unleash your natural creativity
and see what happens. You just might astound yourself and many others as well. Be prepared for the inevitable
resistance and be smart and build a small committed team to help you change the world.
Enjoy the struggle, the setbacks and the victories. It's all
part of the great game of life.
