Is there any sense to be made of this event? In times of upheaval, people seek answers and seek comfort in a higher power.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Who is the real enemy &#8211; external or within? Who are we fighting against? Perhaps it is our light that we fear most?<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In the years to come, it seems inevitable we will face more tribulations. Will we see beyond the illusion or be sucked into a vortex of shadow? Will we react fearfully or respond with grace?<\/p>\n<p>We are all under attack from extremism from the Middle East to America, Asia, Russia, Europe and all the world. We are all targets of the dark forces and that actually unites us. Humanity is at war with the darkness and in our plight, we are one. The real enemy is darkness. The faceless enemy is within just as much as it is on the external plain of existence. Something unites us all\u2014that is love. It does not have a religion, nor a philosophy attached to it.<\/p>\n<p>What is darkness\u00a0&#8211; what is it inside that corrupts a human soul? What is it that ignites the flame of tyranny, the evil of wanting to harm others? Inside our soul, where is the light? The forces of darkness and derision have always been here. We all have something to look at within. And we know that it is the love (or lack thereof) that drives evil onward.<\/p>\n<p>Blame is too easy. Doubts are all over, everywhere.\u00a0People doubt and want to think negative things; when suspicion prevails, all we get are the same empty sound-bytes.<\/p>\n<p>These forces that want to destroy life are fearful of the light, fearful of love, they feel such emptiness\u00a0that they want to destroy the\u00a0light. They do not love themselves, but feel a hatred of life itself. Only a mind under a cloud of fear and suffering would support such evil acts.<\/p>\n<p>The cleansing is difficult as catharsis must involve a shedding of the old\u2014a releasing and letting go of fear, grief, and so many old beliefs. We cannot escape our individual responsibility as all of humanity is under attack. When one person suffers, we all suffer. We are all inwardly responsible and outwardly influential. Purging is only a part of the process, it is not perpetually in motion. Collectively, we are co-creating all of this.\u00a0We can change what we see now with love.<\/p>\n<p>The human community must ask ourselves who we are. Our self-identity is key: how do we define ourselves? Are we divine souls united under One Creator, or are we divided and separated predators battling amongst each other for limited resources?<\/p>\n<p>Our true nature is not evil, violent, wicked, or devious. Within all of us is the seed of God, the seed of goodness, light, unconditional love and purity. We each have a saint glowing within, a shining star of grace inside. Our essential nature is not darkness, it is starlight. May we see our light manifest in the world and shine upon all those who suffer.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of the energy of fear, we have bountiful reminders that expand our ability to worship the Creator, to raise one\u2019s affirmations to the stars. The only true religion is love. Uniting against hatred is not to pretend that hatred doesn\u2019t exist\u2014it is to raise and elevate human possibility, to reach for greater achievements\u2014more love, more forgiveness, more grace\u2014not for ephemeral, vain and selfish attainments like revenge.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Now is the time to be enter the love vibration that will unify and elevate us all.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Illumination comes from stillness. Peace arises naturally after a raging storm has swept across the landscape. One cannot force peace as it comes from within\u2014it comes from the heart. It\u2019s important to recognise that spreading the message of peace expands the vibration of peace. Then it follows that peace lives in our actions.<\/p>\n<p>We will arise like doves again from the ashes renewed and reinvigorated, ready to love all that is with our passion undimmed. We will step into the light again, this time taking all of humanity with us.<\/p>\n<p>_______________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Photo Credits:\u00a0Via\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/tais\/24762390\">Flickr<\/a><\/p>\n<p>What do you think &#8211; or feel?
