only you can begin to know how. As we have said the first
               thing is to question where you are and how you are. Question
               yourself, others, God and human. Never be afraid to question.
               Realise the bubble you live within, and burst it with questions.
               You  will  hear  many  saying  that  life  is  tough  and  society
               reassuring them that indeed that is they way life is meant to
               be. Spiritual life is never tough. Earth was always meant to be
               a happy place. It is the actions of human egos that has made it
               unhappy, a place for suffering and enslavement. This certainly
               is not how it was created nor why it was created. If you read
               the  creation  myth  of  Adam  and  Eve,  you  will  see  how  it
               illustrates what we are saying, how the Garden of Eden was a
               paradise  until  humankind  was  introduced  and  allowed  their
               physicality  to become the dominant part of their nature  and
               they  sought  to  challenge  the  authority  of  God  through
               disobedience. We see in this tale the example of the Law of
               Cause and effect in how they were banished in order to learn
               the folly of their ways. Of course this is but a story but a story
               that  carries  a  message  for  all  humankind  to  understand  and
               benefit from. Unfortunately the message is lost in  the blame
               being  passed  around  and  with  no  one  character  in  the  story
               taking  responsibility  for  their  actions,  and  therefore  missing
               the lesson carried within this story. Was not the apple plucked
               from the tree of knowledge? And therein is the clue. It was
               that they sought to take a shortcut to all knowledge and now
               humankind  is  on  the  long  road  back  to  realising  all  will  be
               there  for  those  that  seek,  but  it  is  a  steady  process  of
               development  in  awareness  that  will  carry  the  reward  of
               achieving our individual part of all that is. No one can have all
               knowledge. It is only possible to have one’s own knowledge
               and  a  knowledge  of  the  knowledge  of  others.  Collectively
