The Beginning

"Tell us how our end will be."

If you haven't noticed yet, things are changing in the world. And they will continue to change. You are witnessing the likes of something manifest that the world has yet to experience.

The question is not whether change is coming. The question is: will you change as a result of the world, or before it?

Most people will rationalize what they're seeing on the news or in their communities. They'll say something to the effect of: "Change always happens. We are always changing. So what is there really to talk about. Everything is fine. It’s going to be fine."

That is partly true. But what if the change you are witnessing now is so monumental in scale that it demands you to change just to experience the upside of it?

This is where most people exit the conversation. The feeling is: "Sure, I'll change a little, but just enough to stay comfortable. I don't really have to change. I can still be me."

And that is okay. That is you exercising your free will to recognize what you are, or not. But there is more at stake than most people are willing to look at.

The Invisible Manifested Visibly

We are witnessing the invisible manifested visibly in the world right now. If you look closely, you will see its hand moving the pieces in your reality, as if on a game board. This divine intelligence, this Hand, operates by a logic that looks almost illogical from human understanding.

It makes moves no rational human would make. But if you look closely enough, there is an obvious, and unmistakable pattern. And that pattern is a series of movements and manifestations, all leading toward an outcome you might be ignoring. Change on a scale you have yet to experience.

Your Terminal Illness

The truth is, you, everybody, has a terminal illness. That illness is called human existence. You are fated to die. And yet most people live as though they don’t believe that they will.

Many of you will ask to see evidence to justify the changes you are contemplating making alongside the world. As if knowing you will die is not enough. But in truth, you have seen the evidence, again and again. You have watched the flower bloom knowing its death was already written into it. You've loved grandparents who are no longer here. You've held pets who no longer are with you in a physical body. Maybe even a child.

You have seen the blood, the beauty, and every manner of evidence of a greater hand moving you toward your own fated outcome. 

Can you see the pattern? Does it lead where you think it leads? It leads to your own passing.

I asked this in an earlier blog post, "The Darkness," and I'll ask it again here: what is it you need to see, that you haven't already seen, that would finally grant you permission to remember what you are? What does it owe you as proof? 

Technically, the answer is nothing. "It" does not need to show you a single additional thing. The proof has always been in front of you. Miracle, manifestation, wonder, awe, shock, the evidence was always present. You were just not ready to see it as evidence.

The Beginning

Ask yourself this question: If my end is certain, then what was I, before any of this?

Confronting your own mortality is not meant to leave you frightened or resigned, it is meant to strip away everything that only mattered because you assumed you had unlimited time to attend to it. What's left when that assumption is gone is much closer to what you actually are.

In the beginning, you were pure, a manifestation of love itself, including your birth into this existence. Since that day you have been exposed, corrupted, mutated, layered over, until you no longer remember where you started. 

Finding “the end”, or finding “yourself”, in the way most spiritualists refer to it, is often just the fabricated self searching for itself. It's a distraction the mind runs on the mind. The end was never separate from the beginning. It is the same point, viewed from the other side. 

A famous teacher was once asked this: "Tell us how our end will be." He answered: "Have you discovered the beginning, then so that you are seeking the end? For where the beginning is, the end will be."

The real question is not what happens when you die. It's: have you discovered the beginning yet?

The part of you that existed before the roles, the fear, the fabricated self took over. Sit with your own end long enough, honestly enough, and that is what you are left holding. Origin.

The Split

If you don’t know yet, we are at the end of a cycle and the beginning of a new one. With that ending comes a split, and every one of you will have a chance to choose which side of the split you embody: love, and the recognition of what you are, or the denial of it.

One of the more common questions I get asked is when is “the split” happening? We like to believe we're owed the luxury of tomorrow. We are not. Not your life, not your circumstances, nothing is guaranteed to carry forward beyond today. The split is not a future event. The split is right now, in this moment. It can be found in the choice you make about whether to keep looking away from your beginning or finally turning toward it.

The problems you think that you have, career drama, oil prices, the news cycle, politics, these mean nothing next to what you should actually be attending to: your fated outcome, and what you do with the time between now and it. These are the problems of the terminally ill. 

To change before the world is simply to recognize, now, that you are love manifested in it. 

See the beginning, so that you might see past the illness. Not around it but in transcendence of it.

You are loved more than you can possibly imagine. Part of that love is the experience of death. And if you have finally discovered your beginning, you'll recognize that death was never the end.
