The Mirage of Spiritual Enlightenment:
In a world driven by power, greed, and the pursuit of profit, spiritual enlightenment is often romanticised, packaged, and sold as the ultimate goal. The movie *Lucy* epitomises this fantasy, presenting a vision of a woman who transcends the limits of the human mind and ultimately becomes one with the universe. For many, this narrative resonates deeply—who wouldn’t want to unlock the full potential of their mind, gain ultimate knowledge, and rise above the mundane constraints of life?
But here’s the paradox: While this idea of Enlightenment is alluring, it’s far removed from the realities of our current world. Most people who think they want spiritual ascension, as portrayed in “Lucy” or similar narratives, are not prepared for the consequences. Achieving such a level of consciousness would likely render one unable to cope with the world. Let’s delve deeper into why this is the case.
The Disconnection Between Spirituality and Worldly Operations
Our world operates on principles that often directly conflict with the laws of higher dimensions. Our society is structured around power dynamics, material wealth, and the relentless pursuit of more money, influence, and control. These pursuits are inherently ego-driven and rooted in a consciousness of separation that views individuals as isolated entities competing for scarce resources.
True spiritual enlightenment, on the other hand, is about unity, connection, and the dissolution of the ego. It’s about understanding that we are all part of a larger whole and that our actions must align with universal laws that prioritise harmony, balance, and well-being. To fully embody this state of consciousness, one must let go of the things that drive our current world: competition, power, greed, popularity, and the need for control.
False prophets and the business of spirituality
In today’s world, much of what passes for spirituality is little more than a facade, a business model cloaked in the language of enlightenment. False prophets abound, spinning yarns and projecting what the world wants to hear. They offer comforting words, quick fixes, and feel-good aphorisms that sound profound but are hollow at their core.
These so-called spiritual leaders or authors aren’t guiding anyone towards true Enlightenment; they’re more focused on business-building, sales pitching, marketing, and advertising disguised as spiritual evolution. They recall segments that resonate with an eager audience, but these teachings have little to do with the purest form of energy and the principles of Enlightenment. This isn’t light; it’s an illusion—a construct designed to dominate others and generate more profit.
True light, genuine spiritual energy, has no agenda. It’s not found in books or podcasts, nor dictated by man’s laws and narratives. These are merely human constructs crafted to control for power and profit. In its purest essence, Enlightenment is beyond the reach of those seeking it for power or profit. It’s a state of being that transcends the material world and its limitations.
The Illusion of Control and the Reality of Surrender
In Lucy, as the protagonist gains more power, she starts transcending human limitations, ultimately losing her physical form. While this is portrayed as the ultimate achievement, it also serves as a profound metaphor for the surrender of the self. True Enlightenment isn’t about acquiring power in the conventional sense; it’s about letting go of the need for power and control.
There is no “To manifest” - the most significant false selling statement!
This is where many who seek spiritual ascension experience a disconnect. In a world where power and control are synonymous with success, the notion of surrender can seem counterintuitive, even daunting. Yet, without surrender, true Enlightenment remains elusive. Attaining this state of surrender in a world dominated by power would create a significant dissonance that most aren’t equipped to handle.
The Struggle to Align with Higher Dimensions
The higher dimensions operate on principles that are incompatible with our world's greed and profit-driven mechanisms. These realms focus on collective well-being, love, and the interconnectedness of all life. Living in alignment with these principles while existing in a world that values profit over people and power over peace would indeed be a constant struggle.
For those who have genuinely ascended to a higher state of consciousness, the realities of this world can feel harsh and abrasive. The dissonance between their inner state and the outer world can create isolation, frustration, and even despair. This is why many enlightened beings throughout history have chosen lives of solitude or simplicity, away from the chaos of the material world. They understood that the two worlds—the world of the ego and the world of spirit, energy, and light—are often irreconcilable.
The Misconception of Spirituality as a Quick Fix
Many people today are attracted to spirituality as a way to escape life's challenges or to gain greater control over their circumstances. However, true spirituality is not a quick solution; it’s a profound transformation in how one perceives and engages with the world. It’s about moving from separation to unity, from fear to love, and from control to surrender.
This type of transformation demands deep inner work and often requires facing uncomfortable truths about oneself and existence. It’s not about acquiring more power in a material sense; it’s about transcending the very need for power. Many people fall short of this, seeking Enlightenment for misguided reasons, and when they confront the true essence of ascension, they often find themselves unprepared for its demands.
Conclusion: A Call for Authentic Spirituality
The movie Lucy serves as a powerful metaphor for the journey toward spiritual enlightenment. However, it also underscores the gap between what many believe they want and what true enlightenment involves. In a world driven by power and greed, the path to spiritual ascension is not about gaining greater control but about relinquishing control entirely. It’s about aligning with universal laws that prioritise the well-being of all instead of the desires of a select few.
For those genuinely committed to the spiritual path, it’s crucial to recognise that this journey is not about escaping the world but transforming how we engage with it. It’s about infusing the principles of higher dimensions into our everyday lives, even when they conflict with the structures of the material world. It’s about understanding that true power resides not in domination but in surrender to the greater good.
Ultimately, true spirituality has no agenda and no profit motive. It exists as light in its purest form—unfettered by human constructs and untouched by the desire for power. Those who seek it must be ready to let go of everything they believe they know, surrender their desires for control, and embrace a way of being that transcends the very fabric of this world. Anything less is not Enlightenment; it’s merely another form of illusion, a business masquerading as spiritual evolution.
