Most women have taken on a double task by combining work and family, which is a common phenomenon nowadays. There are significant changes noticeable in male behaviour, however, most men are still pursuing a career. And naturally, we are also continuously in pursuit of more and more material possessions. For matter provokes us with its greatly advanced possibilities, such as computers, internet, mobile phones, etcetera! And what about commercials compelling us to consume excessively? And do not many people, deep within their hearts, long for a house of their own with all the worries that go with it? And so on and so forth…
Stress, however, does not only occur because people work too hard or strive for too many things, but, just as often, in a different way, they have been subjected to too high a mental burden. What about, for instance, the care for our (increasingly ageing) parents, now that retirement homes have hardly any spaces available, the nursing homes can no longer cope with the demand, and the health service itself is close to burn out? Even death is no longer a fact of life to man. He is, for instance, confronted with decisions such as euthanasia! How fortunate we are that the euthanasia pill has not been made available as yet, or we would be forced to decide on that issue as well. In addition, we are also obliged to search our conscience and consciousness as to whether we are willing to donate our organs in due course...
These are only a few of the major questions in life which we can often postpone or suppress for the time being, even though the media know how to keep us tuned to these matters! We could fill several pages more about less serious stress factors. However, that is not the purpose of this article, because I would very much like to point out to you - before I am allowed to release to you a powerful meditation with the object to resolve stress - that there are three additional significant stress factors in life which are not yet exactly obvious for most people. I would like to bring these stress factors to your attention, so that you can also recognize and transform them.
1. Accelerated development of consciousness a stress factor
In preparation for the Aquarian Age (2000-4000) the spiritual evolution began in 1989. In concrete terms this means that the driving force of evolution is no longer focused on man's solar plexus, whereby his intellect developed, but it is focused on his heart, whereby his consciousness undergoes a rapid development. This means that man is now being stimulated to become engaged urgently in his process of becoming aware. Besides being able to perfect everything from a material point of view, because he has the possibility to do so, he is now being asked to strive for perfection from a spiritual point of view ! Through that process he will learn how to discipline himself, in order to gain mastery over matter. For the onset of the spiritual evolution has made the Spirit descend into matter and in that process man has been an important instrument!
We are allowed to live life to the fullest and besides that we can also discover the perfect state of life lived through the spirit, and we may harmonize these two poles of our life. This is not at all straightforward, because in this process we must make profound choices, which concern not only ourselves, but also have a deep impact on the lives of, for instance, our children, partners and relatives. Experience shows that they can sometimes put up a lot of resistance against our chosen spiritual path. For they have just begun to enjoy the material things that life has to offer, and often they are not ready to move on yet. And this discrepancy causes many new stress factors.
2. Accelerated working out of karma as a stress factor
At the onset of the Aquarian Age the heart chakra of creation was activated. Due to the great flow of Universal Love that has been initiated as a result of this, the remaining karmic debt has slowly but surely been shaken loose from the akasha (the memory of life) and sent back to man. When a person has not yet learnt how to transform his karma through the inner power of creation, it will be converted into many forms of suffering, because he must work out this karma. The already burdened human being is put under intense pressure because of the onrushing karma and the suffering it brings with it, involving - besides distress - also much stress.
The side effect of the intensified karmic activity is that mankind is called upon en masse to become aware. Partly helped by the current cut-backs in health service, man will start looking for a solution for his problems and will, with the help of people working in the alternative circuit amongst others, set forth on the path towards awareness. And that is exactly the intention of evolution, because it is meant to awaken man's consciousness, although it would have preferred for man to reach this point through transformation and not through suffering.
3. Working for the world as a stress factor
A great deal is now being asked of the person who has already become aware. His consciousness is being used as a container into which the evolving Aquarian power is poured, which is subsequently transformed and radiated into life by him. Because man is a transforming instrument of the driving force of evolution and the evolution experiences a quantum leap, he is being urged to significant spiritual growth. Evolution has never experienced such a whirlpool of growth, giving man unprecedented, great new possibilities indeed. However, in understanding and applying the result of this growth in everyday life, the person who has grown in consciousness is under great pressure. Much is being asked of his resilience and thus can understandably evoke a lot of stress.
The new possibilities that are being disclosed in man's being sometimes cause the workers for life to despair too. Are they being deluded by an unbridled imagination, or are the things they observe inherent to the cosmic human's reality? Does he dare to label his inspiration as being true, does he have the audacity to stand for his own truth? What will happen to him when he reveals his new perception? It takes a lot of courage for a person to approach society with innovative matters and to face the upheaval these innovations evoke. Never before, man was given so many unique chances to grow, nor has he been under so much tension and so much spiritual pressure ever before.
Stress as an epidemic disease
From what has been described in this article, it will be clear that stress occurs on all levels of existence in a great diversity of forms, such as stress caused by fast spiritual growth; stress caused by tough working out of karma; stress caused by the enormous pressure put on us through the renewal of society; stress because we all want more and more; stress because of over-population… and so on. Stress is becoming an epidemic disease and before long stress will - just as AIDS - be felt and experienced in different ways in every corner of the world. Stress has truly become universal.
Stress as an epidemic disease calls for new specialisms in the health services. Psychoses, break-downs, burn-outs, depressions, allergies, eczema…, stress will surface in a large number of variations. The spiritual body burns out on stress, but the physical body does so too; stress harms both body and spirit. That is also true for life, because through the effect karma has on society, it is being affected as well. Everywhere, the great Aquarian Purification and renewal take their toll. To give you an example: a newspaper recently mentioned that, according to statistics, women take more tranquillizers than birth-control pills!
The pace of life has accelerated. It is like getting into a roller coaster. We keep racing down at an ever increasing pace and are craving for the moment we will be taken back up, so that we can let go of the tension again. Unfortunately, that time lies at least 200-300 years ahead, because that is how long the great purge heralding the onset of the Aquarian Age will last. It is not my intention to nurture your gloomy thoughts herewith; I can only show you what is going on in life and whenever the solution for a particular problem is offered to me, it makes sense to put it in writing. As is the case now, a powerful meditation against stress on all levels was released a while ago and, hereby, I would like to pass it on to you.
Meditation: The Shield of Light
In previous articles I already mentioned that you can transform your karma with the help of the power of creation within you. With that, you can neutralize all karmic related stress factors. During the past months, I received again new mystic information, with which a shield of even higher creative light can be built, allowing us to heal with it all karma, all over-materialization, all stress, all your complaints and disorders, on all levels of life. Admitting and radiating the built-up power is the most effective medication to resolve our stress (our distress) as well as that of our world.
To build this shield, you proceed as follows:
Visualize in this order:
a. A Blazing Golden Sun
With this symbol you mobilize the power of transformation: the power of the lower being of the Universal Christ. Then you ask for transformation of your karma on all levels.
b. A Transparent Wild Pansy
In this way you mobilize the power of transmutation (re-creation): the power of the higher being of the Universal Christ. Then you ask for the re-creation of all situations caused by stress you are in or see around you.
c. A Golden Crown
A Golden Crown is the symbol of the Guardianship of Life. With it you mobilize the power of creation, the highest being of the Universal Christ. Then you ask for the guardianship of your life or that of someone else.
d. A Golden Anchor
With this symbol you mobilize the power of the Almighty, the all-embracing power of the Universal Christ. At this level you call upon the complete fulfillment of your life and that of Life itself.
Follow the visualization of each symbol with a moment of silence. The power of creation given by this symbol can then quietly be built up within you. Next, call upon change or healing. Remain quietly in this energy for a while before proceeding with the following symbol. Conclude de meditation with a silent meditation of about five minutes and then slowly come back to yourself.
N.B. Because the meditation is very powerful, it will be sufficient to meditate in this way once every three weeks. By doing this, you unburden your being on each and every level of karma and stress. In this way you will slowly bring your life to fulfilment and help anchor it into the final destination of evolution.
