Dead-Weight on a Time-Travel Merry-Go-Round

With all the spiritual lessons I struggle to share with people patterned
with past religious affiliations and the oppressive fluffiness of New
Age teachings, it is the full ramifications of 'free will' -- the prime
directive of Creation -- that is the toughest to get across.

In a time of choosing which way we will all go - on ascension with the
planet to help it build something new, back to our 'home' planets to
enjoy the rewards of our work here, or continuing on a to a new
'holding' Matrix to await further lessons in 3D -- people have to and
can only make their own choices. This can be a choice made 'consciously'
or it can be our old friend 'collusion' -- making a choice by not making
a choice. But no matter how it is made, spiritually speaking it can only
be made by the individual involved.

As the wizard Albus Dumbledore
said in a recent Harry
Potter movie, the time is fast approaching when people will need to
"choose between what is right and what is easy." Well that time is
almost past now and choices have, for the most part, already been made.

I'm sad and frustrated in my efforts to effect more change in people,
but then Guidance reminds me of what I learned many years ago, that is
that this planet was never going to ascend because of the low state of
the consciousness of the people on it -- slaves, yes, but willing slaves
as much as anything. As in the movie, 12 Monkeys, many of us were sent
back in 'time' to hopefully change that future for the planet and as
many people as possible. While the work we have done has changed the
planet's status and future to what it always should have been, the poor
choices of those on the planet have not changed and their futures are
what they had chosen for themselves prior to the shift in the planet's
future. Hence, when someone refuses, even with new information and
assistance available, to make a different decision, no one is to blame.
The Time Traveler's Wife, H.G. Well's Time Machine, in fact all of the
novels about time travel pretty much tell the truth that people's
choices are pretty much programmed into them and changing the past or
the future doesn't in fact mean people's futures will therefore change.

In Greek mythology ,
Cassandra was the daughter of King Priam
and Queen Hecuba
of Troy
. Her beauty caused Apollo
to grant her the gift of prophecy
. However, when she did not
return his love, Apollo placed a curse on her so that no one would ever
believe her predictions. She is a figure both of the epic tradition
and of tragedy
, where her combination of
deep understanding and powerlessness exemplify the tragic condition of
humankind. Knowing the future will only drive you mad, says one
character in The Time Traveler's Wife. More than in anything else, one
needs to be detached from the results of other people's choices.

Religious and New Age teachings would have it that everybody goes along.
This is the 'no child left behind' attitude that is so oppressive in the
American education system for it means that even those who cannot or
will not do the work still get to move on with the others who have done
the work. The system bogs down with a homogeneity of irresponsibility
that eventually destroys all, taking everybody down with the ship except
for only the most committed swimmers. It is the pandering to the lowest
common denominator so prevalent in most every aspect of life these days
and the TMZ generation.

When there is no need to take responsibility for one's own spiritual
awareness and growth, what use is there in doing anything? Just hitch a
ride on the coat-tails of others. It's the kindergarten attitude of so
many people who call themselves Lightworkers. Who are we to judge if a
person, by their actions, chooses NOT to go forward with the ascension
process?

The other day one member of my group got an 'ah-ha' moment about her
procrastination in life and wrote about it. The very next day her
procrastination returned because, like spiritual mastery itself, the
heights must be scaled each day, the surrender to Spirit's Guidance must
be made every day until one knows nothing different.

Spirit is a very loving but very exacting balance in Creation. It was
the old attitude of the Atlanteans taking 'joyrides' into the higher
dimensions using artificial techniques that eventually made the worlds
tumble down into 3rd dimensional reality in the first place.

Spiritually speaking a soul goes to the place it has EARNED, gets the
Guidance it has earned depending on its commitment to service - not
where family members, loved ones, users and controllers want it to go.
Yes, there is grace, but when you look at a 3rd grader and think to
yourself 'Can I put him in a fifth grade class and not have him fall
further behind due to frustration and lack of a good foundation for
understanding the more advanced lessons?' 'Is this fair to the other 5th
graders who have done the work and have the foundation to
move on?' What answer do you receive? Should the 5th graders suffer for
having to carry the dead weight of the 3rd graders on their shoulders as
they themselves struggle to move higher?

Dead-weight on a merry-go-round is the idea of taking everybody along
into ascension. The most loving thing to do is to ALLOW people the
choice and then respect the choice they have made, just as we want them
to also respect our choices. Right now as I write, the Spiritual
Hierarchy says that more than 80 percent of the planet's peoples (the
general consciousness of the planet) has CHOSEN NOT to go on with
ascension. If you live in a 'normal' town or big city then you can see
these people walking around you all day long. They are the majority
rather than the exception. It is NOT a judgement to say they are the
general consciousness for their actions and thinking make it clear.
That's the difference between evaluation and judgement - having a sound
basis of facts with which to support a conclusion.

So many who are now coming to the time of their missions MUST keep this
in mind that now they are doing what they came here to do NOT to help
everbody, for that would be like a drowning man pulling down his
rescuer. The planet Itself is safe. That has been seen to by those whose
mission it was to make it so. Guidance knows who has chosen and who has
not. If it had been up to the 'general consciousness' of the planet it
would already have been destroyed. It's not a question of some idyllic
'worthiness' or not, it's just who has has done the work and who has
not. Follow your Guidance and They will lead you to who needs the help.
All my life I've seen the people being led to be in my classrooms or
seminars or talks by their Guidance just as you have seen those you need
to meet come into your life at precisely the time it was needed. Allow
this most holy of processes for it is the way Creation works. Bless the
others and let them go. Dead-weight is only an anchor that pulls
everybody down along with it.

In service, Peter
