Additionally there will be some new and improved way to solve our problems, to address the issues of living, all that is required is your vote and/or your money or both and everything will change for the better. In truth, nothing in the news today is new. Politicians may not technically belong to the worlds oldest profession (I have my doubts) but if not they have been plying their trade just as long.
We are asked to trust people and institutions, to place our faith in governments and “learned” experts. Yet the same problems that plagued the ancients still plague us today: healthcare, jobs, secure borders, taxes, immigration, elder care, safe and available food, education, road and bridge maintenance, addiction etc. Studying the history of worldly assurances; both micro and macro, it becomes apparent that outer assurances have done little to fundamentally change the world.
What of spiritual assurances? Living on the Spiritual Basis, we have found the timeless assurances of spiritual teachers becoming real for us once we stepped out in faith and wholeheartedly embraced the work. By placing our trust in the miraculous, turning from the outer to the within through prayer, meditation and service, trusting in infinite God rather than our finite self, we have found peace and the ability to meet calamity with serenity which had eluded us. Our new reliance based on the work we have done in raising our consciousness, expanding our conscious contact with God, not the assurances of others. The promise of a life beyond the limitation, for we are now in the world but no longer of it. Now if I could just cut down on those bathroom trips in the middle of the night, maybe a new diet...
