The Ten Commandments, world peace and enlightenment

The ten commandment story is as well known of a story as that there is or ever was. Whether you believe in the Ten Commandments story or not is irrelevant the Ten Commandments has been governing your life for thousands of years. Governments have used this doctrine to govern people since its existence. The problem is that the entire story and actual commandments have been completely misunderstood. My understanding of these events, much like a Hollywood movie is based in reality but has been greatly exaggerated for dramatic effect.

The story goes like this; Moses (a great master) asked God ultimately his higher self.
“God, how will I know when we are close to you?” (Enlightenment)

God said “you will know that you are close to me (and ultimately in vibration alignment)
When;”

1) You feel like there is no other God besides me. – You will know that I am the only thing that exists.

2) You do not worship false idols. – You will not fall for religions that give you false paths to me, you will know the truth is with-in.

3) You do not take the Lords name in vein. – You will not curse the powers you have inside of you because you will be creating well.

4) You hold every day as Sacred – not just Sunday and holidays

5) You honor your Mother and Father – you will appreciate and respect your past and those that have come before you

6) You will not feel the impulse to murder – you will not wish to harm anyone

7) You will not feel the impulse to commit adultery – you will not break the individual covenants that you made with your fellow beings.

8) You will not feel the impulse to steal – because you know that you can have whatever you want anyway through your spirit.

9) You will not feel the impulse to lie – you realize there is no benefit of false creation

10) You will not feel the need to covet your neighbor’s wife – Create your own ideal family situation. Do not envy anyone. Admire and get ideas for your own life situation. So, you can create your own life preference.

Looking at these set of statements from an enlightened perspective it seems that the message was clear. Treat the virus and not the symptoms. Much in the same way those on the enlightened path are finding out to monitor your feelings and not your thoughts.

Your state of being births actions and not the other way around. If one can focus on the unity that is the truth of the universe, laws would be pointless because the desire to harm would not be there. The understanding of this universal unity (reveled via enlightenment) would not only be understood but would also be adopted into our psyches.

This understanding is a principle that will lead us into a new age of world peace and love; perhaps it is time to adopt a new mentality about the ills of society. All issues are truly a bi-product in the perceived separation from spirit and should not be confused with anything else. So, what can we do?

Those who are enlightened must remember that we can not change anyone’s mind. Changing ones mind is an extremely personal process capable only by the spirit in divine timing. So, we must focus our energy on encouraging the individual to look inside to find their higher self so that the spirit takes over their actions and love becomes their only motivation.

We will achieve world peace one person at a time and the tools we will use are love, compassion, kindness and patience. These are the virtues of a truly divine being and will serve as a great example to all potential enlightened hopefuls.
