Greetings One... and All,
It is with humble hearts and much gratitude that we present the “Revelations” that have come during our search to determine how we may be of greatest service to the Earth and all living things in these times of great change. Although being faced with these Revelations for the first time, ourselves, caused some degree of anxiety as they went against so much that we thought we ‘knew’ about Life, Light and Service; an earnest search into our own hearts, and a willingness to face the uncompromising truth, has revealed liberating new perspectives on the World-Altering event of the coming Shift, including what it may look like, how we may face it, and how today’s increasingly intense world events will serve to assist Humanity’s Evolution.
One of our greatest shake-ups came in our reevaluation of AAO's role in assisting humanity in transitioning through these times of great change; where we realized that we, along with so many others in the rising spiritual and new age movements, were working to "create change" according to OUR IDEALS of what is 'right' and 'wrong' in the world. And then we did some internal seeking, and reflecting upon the words of Masters such as Rumi, who said:
Beyond our ideas of right-doing and wrong-doing,
there is a field. I'll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase 'each other'
...doesn't make sense any more. - Rumi
And Lao Tsu, who in the Tao te Ching said:
Do you want to improve the world?
I don't think it can be done.
The world is sacred.
It can't be improved.
If you tamper with it, you'll ruin it.
If you treat it like an object, you'll lose it.
Considering these, and other such wisdoms from the Ma sters, along with our understanding of the approaching "Return" as detailed in Revelations, we realize that it isn't our place to "create the world" according to OUR IDEALS, but rather we are being asked to live, love ALL and lead the way in helpfulness, trusting that the big issues (that we seem so helpless to change) will be remedied by greater forces that are currently beyond our comprehension.
Thus, realizing that the world is in its present state because of our desire to create, and control it, according to our own DUALISTIC IDEALS, we believe now, that our planet's healing will come by a complete 180 degree reversal, through a surrender of our Personal Will to the Divine Will of the Tao; and by thus realizing that all events and orchestrators of the Shift have a place and a purpose for which to be thankful and loving, we may trade our fears and false perceptions in for Faith.
And in so doing we will learn to see that Heaven is not a place, or a prize... but rather, it is a state of mind. And it is this Faithful state, and the love that accompanies it, that will allow us to face and and flow through ALL of the events of the approaching shift, in grace and helpfulness.
Please feel free to share your own thoughts, comments and questions on "Revelations".
