It is all too reminiscent of the past for us to look at the world of humankind as
it is now. Many times humankind has reached this degraded moral and ego
ridden status, where corruption and disruption of God’s creation has been
defiled by the greed of the few. It is unfortunate that there is no justice in the
consequences of this travesty; all have to bear the brunt of the Law of Cause
and Effect. On the brighter side of what could possibly happen under these
circumstances is that the degree that this will affect humankind is proportional
to the awareness of the individual and how they chose to bring that awareness
into their lives. Many think that it is sufficient to be aware, but if that
awareness is infested with laziness and lacks the motivation that is the Spirit
within the human then it is not spiritual awareness, and is but intellectual
awareness. In other words it is only an egotistical awareness and therefore not
spiritual. Many suppose they are spiritual but that is because they tell
themselves that they are. Because one proclaims they are on a spiritual path,
doing ‘spiritual’ things, behaving in a ‘spiritual’ manner does not mean they
are spiritual. The reason your world is in such an unbalanced state is because
of these senseless suppositions. No one can call themselves spiritual, we
cannot call ourselves that and we are pure Spirit. As you evolve spiritually, as
you become more spiritually aware, you will begin to realise that you are not
able to do this, to call yourself spiritual. The suggestion that you are spiritual
suggests that you have arrived at the destination of your journey and that you
have achieved the purpose for your life on earth. We have said to you before
that we are all still on that journey, that it’s an infinite journey, so how can
anybody think they have reached a conclusion? To think one is spiritual only
shows the deception of the ego. The ego can be satisfied with words, the Spirit
is satisfied with action. One cannot call themselves spiritual but they can live
in a spiritual way, and yet this doesn’t make them spiritual, at least not in their
own eyes. You need not see confirmation that you are spiritual from any other
source either as this again would be your ego seeking notoriety for itself. The
