When does Life begin and the Judgment Stop

The moment we wake up life truly happens. I speak of the moment we become conscious of the true nature of the world, and the Universe. When the mind stops taking over, and the soul begins to live.
When the world seems at a standstill, and time becomes irrelevant. It’s when the present moment unfolds and you are truly aware of it. There is no more worry of the future, there is no more lingering of the past.
It’s as you realize that this moment in time is the truest moment that will ever exist. It’s when your very life unfolds continuously before your very eyes.
Every deep breath takes in and releases life, and the energy that surges from the soul of man gives unlimited energy to do that which you most desire.
Love becomes your very nature, and peace your calling.
To spread the word of truth, justice, and harmony to the rest of the world. It’s when your true nature becomes revealed, and you see the power inside of you manifest into the physical world.
Joy seems ceaseless, fear and aversion turns to dust.
The world as you know it transforms, and you begin to smile because you know that your time has come.
You know that there is nothing that can stand in your way from the greatness within you. That your soul once again has become one with the unmanifested.
Liberation is yours my friend, freedom is but a state, as is happiness, it is something that you can achieve at any time. It is something that no one on this earth can deny you if you truly seek it.
It is within with you right now, to be at your highest good. It is within you right now, to live by your highest ideals as an ever advancing presence.
You are a force to be reckoned with, for the good of all man kind. But a force in total humbleness with a love for all of humanity. It’s is in your truest nature to feel this way. Look deep inside of yourself.
And ask the question, why am I here?
Is it for riches? Is it for peace and all equality of man kind?
I can’t answer for you, we are all different. But I believe that all in all whatever you think it may be, it all boils down to love.
Love for your family, love for your friends, your significant other, or for all humanity as a whole, as it is for me. When I look at people now I see them differently than I used to.
I see my mother, and my father, my brother, sister, and so forth. I see a connection between everyone, something unseen. A force that is eternal, that is powerful, that is humble, that is awe inspiring.
There is no name for it, but it gives me a whole new perspective on life and the world. For now I see the truth in it, the realization that we all came from one source, we all live in that one source, and we will all return to that one source.
Call it what you will, God, the Universe, Allah, Energy. I believe it is all one and the same. I call it consciousness. I call it being, I call it the formless substance that everything comes from and will return to.
If you believe this way as I do then you also must believe in some underlining principals.
1. Abundance – Since everything comes from the same formless substance, then there is more then enough of everything in the world for everyone.
2. Equality – If we are all made of the same basic energy, then we are all truly created equal, therefore we all deserve the same opportunity.
3. Peace and Love – If we share one singular connected consciousness, then we are all as brother and sister, we are all as one, and therefore are connected by a bond that cannot be broken.
In this Mindset, peace and love for mankind is not some distant far off dream, but a vision that has the highest potential to be realized. It gives hope, purpose, and meaning to life for all.
4. Joy and Happiness – In a world like this, the truth of suffering becomes realized. The truth is that suffering is a man made feeling, something that is a foundation of the egoic mind, and can be wiped away just the same.
5. Dreams Become Reality – In a world where all is one and one is all, where everyone has the same respect and chance for equality, love, peace, joy and happiness, then every dream you have also has the potential to be realized.
Maybe you call me a unrealistic optimist, that’s not the case. I am optimistic, but I am realistic, I’m not one to say that the world doesn’t need work. I’m not one to say that there are not situations that need to be dealt with.
I am here to say that the world and it’s people are perfect so far as they have gone, that mankind as a species is advancing. That there are more and more people everyday who are “waking up” from there unconscious mind, and beginning to see the truth, and that there are people fighting for that truth.
I’m saying that there are those of us out here in the world who will stop at nothing to see it a better world any way we can.
Of course there is still violence, hunger, and oppression in every country of the world. But the minds of the common man are beginning to become silenced, and the true nature of the soul is waking in more and more people.
All it takes is a handful of people to change the world on a massive scale, for the good or bad of man.
Everyone knows this to be true.
Lets take a look at some examples.
Gandhi – A single frail near naked man, gained more power of influence than all the governments of the world combined, and he used this power to better the world.
Oprah Winfrey – This woman has changed the lives of millions, to this day she still devotes her life to making this world a better place.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. – One man, one speech that changed the world “I have a dream.” This statement will ring in the ears of the world for eternity, it was one of the most powerful speeches the world has ever seen.
Nelson Mandela – After twenty seven years of false wronged imprisonment he showed us the true meaning of the word forgiveness. He willingly offered to run the country with the same men who took a majority of his life.
Jesus Christ/Buddha/Mohammed – Whether you believe in organized religions or not. These are possibly the three most influential people who ever lived. And they all conveyed one basic message.
These three men spoke of love, peace, equality, abundance, joy, happiness, and changed the history and the future of the world forever.
The list goes on and on, many today spread the word and have devoted their lives to a better world.
This post coincides with some other writings I have done that basically focus on social interactions with other people. We can all start making this world a better place by effecting the people in our everyday lives in a great way.
I encourage all of you to stop judging, to start being more compassionate towards your brothers and sisters of the world. Everyday that you add suffering to another persons life, you add suffering to the collective consciousness of all of man.
It’s not anyone’s fault, it is just the mind subduing the soul, but we can all make a conscious effort to let go of our minds and listen to our heart more often. I’m not saying to be pushover by any means, i’m just saying to be aware of your actions, and your words.
Think about the rippling effect that one sentence can cause. Lets say for example a man “wakes up on the wrong side of the bed.”
As he leaves his house in a rush, he is late for work. Already in a bad mindset he decides to stop at a fast food restaurant for breakfast.
He already knows hes late, and it was his choice to stop. But regardless of that he is still rude to the employee behind the window. This employee happens to be the manger, who then feeds the negative energy to her other employees, and they feed it to customers, and so on it trickles down the list.
Granted this is not the case of every scenario. But you get the idea of how one string of words can effect many lives.
This is why we all need to be more conscious of our words and actions. So I challenge you to let the little things go. I challenge you to be more aware of yourself and the world around you, to not let the mind take over you life.
I challenge you to focus more on the present now, and to stop worrying so much of the future, to pay attention to what is happening in front of you.
Start being more compassionate, or at least less aggressive and judgmental, you never know what is going on someones head or life.
Trust me, your life will transform for you if you do this, you’ll start to see more opportunity and more joy in your life.
