After yesterday's mention of spiritual contracts (The Day The NYSE Shut Down), I find a need to go into deeper explanation regarding what they are and how they work. Anyone desiring to assist in fixing/changing the world needs to have a basic understanding of these principles because often we have agreed to contracts that limit our ability to be effective change agents.
Spiritual contracts are not contracts you sign in blood or even on a legal document (although there are spiritual contracts within legal contracts). Spiritual contracts are an agreed upon energy exchange between individuals or groups. These contracts can be negotiated knowingly or through implied consent. In the first type, both parties consciously enter into an agreement. In the second, terms and conditions might be hidden in order to "trick" one of the parties into doing something that might actually go against the being's integrity/character. The thing is, the terms and conditions have to be presented in order for the contract to be binding. That is spiritual law.
The powers that be are experts in spiritual contracts/energy exchange. They have had thousands of years to not only refine their techniques but also to shape society in ways that give themselves maximum power and control.
Let me give you a real world example. Money has been used to quantify energy exchange. The thing is, certain actions will get you more of it than other actions. Those jobs that require more brain power and creativity typically yield better incomes than jobs that use physical labor. (Question: Is this fair or just?) It has been ingrained in us by our parents and grandparents for generations that working hard is a must in order to have money to live on. This spiritual contract says that if you jump through these particular societal hoops, you will have X amount of money. That's also why many of us get irate when we see people who have not entered into this specific spiritual contract. (ie: people on welfare are getting "our" hard-earned tax dollars doing nothing!)
Let's take a closer look at this contract. When we agree to accept that society is a certain way--when we agree to accept those particular rules, we are agreeing to a binding spiritual contract where our energy goes toward maintaining the status quo. We are agreeing to act in certain ways in order to maintain X amount of money to live on. The better we are at keeping the system intact, the more money we are awarded for our efforts. At some point in the past we may have been consciously aware of our agreements, but nowadays we don't even question them. Most of us just accept this is the way things are. A good many of us try to jump through the hoops in spectacular fashion in order to be rewarded with more and more wealth. A part of these negotiations also involve entertainments--things like concerts, movies, vacations, and television programming. Understand that, while these occupations are not bad in and of themselves, many of them are designed to distract us from the actual contract of working hard for our money. Bread and circuses.
As an empath, I have a difficult time with these contracts the way they are. I feel the poverty, disease, violence, etc. that effect billions of people every day. Deep inside, there is a knowing that this does not need to be a way of life--that Mother Earth has the ability to distribute her resources freely so we can all thrive. I cannot justify maintaining the status quo when there is so much pain and injustice in the world. In other words, I have rejected this particular spiritual contract. Yes, I live within the framework the powers that be have set up, but I am working to change the status quo in ways that will reduce the suffering. I am working to help others wake up to the contracts that enslave one and all.
The real question becomes, how can I get out of a spiritual contract once I understand it is something that is not good for myself or others? The bottom line is, you must intentionally renounce it and devote your energies to new ways of BEing and DOing. This blog is one way I work to change the world every day. It is my thought that if I can help people become more connected and aware, they will understand how connected we all are. They will begin to make decisions based on what is good for the whole because they understand that everything they do ultimately comes back to them.
Become aware of the silent agreements--the spiritual contracts--you have entered into. It is only through awareness we can change this planet so all BEings can thrive!!!
