To those in favor of the system
I’m becoming more aware of people, and the system they are operating within: all for a sense of power and control.
This system is set up in such a way that even what is considered “normal” is equally, a means for control. Those whom refuse to abide by the system and seek, and find power within are often disregarded or made to feel crazy for finding that power.
It isn’t you against the world, but you against the system and those hellbent on keeping it in tact.
This world is set up to distract us from what is found within and externalize our power. Because there is no liberation if you believe that you are finite; that, that “God” can separate from you or reject you based off of the actions of yourself or others.
This is an illusion. This system is meant to control the minds of people because liberation of the mind allows you to connect with source; self.
To know what you want and to reject following the masses, following trends, and what is purportedly normal is a threat to a system that seeks absolute control.
Those who stand to gain from the system will always fight for it.
These are people, whom like consumers, are attached to the physical; Money, Power (over others), and Influence.
Even in acknowledging this, I wouldn’t go so far as to judge them harshly, because these are people, whom like consumers, seek themselves in the external.
This whole system is just a perverted version of self. A perverted vision of what God, of what self-power is supposed to look like.
If you need to be revered, if you need people to look up to you or be afraid of you, you hold no true power. Because that sense of power vanishes when the people whom feared you remember that they have always held that power themselves.
All you are at that point is an unstable person who needs to be in control of others to stabilize yourself.
You are not looking to improve yourself. You’re avoiding the work by being more influential than others.
You are avoiding the work by being more comparatively stable than the very people you destabilize to stay in power.

Spiritual Warfare: The Truth
To those whom are spiritually inclined, I have a story to tell;
I spent a month and half experiencing “spiritual warfare”. And in truth…
This was a result of ignoring intuition in favor of pride and apathy.
I can honestly say I did not understand organized religion as much as I should have.
Nor did I recognize the power in acknowledging the self as source.
But anyways.. I was right. Those whom wish to stay in power will always try to destabilize those whom have found it within themselves.
There are various forms of “spiritual “warfare”
Isolation: This is by far the worst form of spiritual warfare; namely for a child.
This looks like being excluded from events, conversations, social groups, and even being shamed or ignored.
This is most damaging for a child because during the years you were meant to develop, you learned that you were nothing, that you did not matter.
As a result of this, your sense of self, of purpose, of personal power is early on damaged.
For those whom are otherwise spiritually in tune, this creates delay in not only identity, but understanding of your gifts.
I choose to see this as a test and lesson in self reliance.
Provocation: This is to elicit a reaction out of you. If someone can provoke your emotions, they can control you.
This looks like people constantly triggering you. At first you might think it’s you and your own reactivity, but it’s not. ‘Could be as simple as being poked or tapped when you repeatedly set that boundary against it. Or conversely, it could be as extreme as people you know, in mass, seemingly partaking is your one very specific trigger you shared with one of them.
Either way, the end goal is a reaction.
I see this as a test; one in “keeping your composure”.
Imitation: This one is to erode your sense of self.
This is plain and simple; people imitating your manner of speech, the way you walk, dress, and even your little quirks.
At first, you may believe this is a sign of similarity to the person.
As time goes on, you’ll begin to notice this person has *in essence “become you”; or at least their idolized idea of you.
Fret not. Once you notice the “identity theft” you will know (hopefully) to distance yourself from this person.
What might happen if you call out the imitator?
First, and foremost, they will try to gaslight you.
You’ll hear things like:
“You’re not the only person that likes *xyz“
Or
“I didn’t know you invented *xyz”
Or
“You seem obsessed with me”
Or they might even insinuate that you copied them.
The best course of action is to distance yourself from this person.
This person likely doesn’t like themselves but they find something in you to be beautiful.
Should you stay, they will try to gaslight you out of your authenticity; out of your light.
*Strong will is VERY important here, because if you are not rooted in your identity, they will try and maybe even (for a time) succeed in making you second guess yourself.
The hope is to make you think you are crazy or to make you second guess the source of your authenticity. In doing this, they hope to make you doubt your own mind and absolute sovereignty while they take the ideas you shared with them for themselves.
Overall, in this, acknowledge they have no power over you and choose distance.
Humiliation: The next stop is a “humiliation ritual” of sorts.
This is a means to tarnish your good name.
This is because they feel entitled to whatever it is they tried to gaslight you out of. And because they lost you, they lost the very source of it.
*Basically…
“I could not manipulate you. This is embarrassing because I misjudged you.
Now I look dumb(and cannot handle shame). You might tell others what I did so I’m going to paint you as crazy before you have a chance to talk.”
This can look like spreading false narratives about you.
This too can look like provoking you to react so they can blame you for reacting (potentially having you arrested or committed).
If this too fails to break your spirit, truly insane people may escalate to bodily harm or fraud.
*And the best way to combat this is to tell your story!
What happens after this?
Well… If it isn’t obvious, these people count on you believing the illusion; that you are anyone other than yourself.
*That is to say that they themselves operate in delusion; the delusion that they could become you.
After this, there is a return to self, as well as in both character and routine.
Hopefully by now, you are more spiritually in tune and aware of the patterns in people, as well as the ones in you that made this illusion possible to begin with.
As for the other, they are left with no choice but to find another source, whom is hopefully (for them) not so rooted in their identity.
What is the fundamental truth?
These people try to create the illusion of separation from self, and generally lack the awareness required to heal and come to this realization themselves.
The disconnect you feel around these people isn’t yours, but theirs.
Hopefully, by now you know that self is source.
But…
We are all self. We are all source.
You are not separate from anyone for any reason.
Should these people do the work instead of trying to suppress others, they would come to the same conclusion.
The only difference is the path you choose to walk; that is the only thing that differentiates you from anyone else.
We are ALL co-creators of the universe.
So, should you choose negativity, it is all that will find you.
Should you choose positivity, it too is all that will find you.
This is not to say that suffering does not exist. To truly acknowledge that self is source is to acknowledge that there are those in the world whom still believe in the illusion of separation.
This illusion of separation is a disconnection from self; from source.
This causes these people to outsource energy, often from those outside of themselves. This is done through domination and manipulation of others.
They need you to care about them because the illusion is separateness causes them to not care about themselves.
The best course of action is to forgive and forget. Don’t feed the situation, and equally do not look back.
How does religion play into this?
Spiritual warfare does, and does not exist.
You are God, God is not external to you.
You are the sign you have been looking for.
This is a means to subdue you because whomever compares themselves to you and thinks they deserve what you have.
Looking for signs and confirmation outside yourself is a means of externalizing your power.
Organized religion is equally a farce.
If you knew you were at peace, why would you pray to stillness?
This is essentially saying “my source of peace is external to me and I must pray to keep it.”
This would create the illusion of separation from peace.
If you were a singer, why would you pray to music?
Prayer is a powerful thing when you know* you are source. It allows you to pray for the things you are working towards, but you would not be praying to an external God to try and acquire it.
This form a prayer is confirmation for what you already know; that as curator of your reality, as source, what you want is already yours. You would not want it if it was not yours to begin with.
After such an experience, it’s normal to feel out of your mind, but I like to believe it’s a lesson is not allowing others to control the narrative that is your identity.
Do not put power over you in the hands of others.
