Courage
is a kind of salvation.
Plato
Twenty-four hundred years ago, Plato was the Greek philosopher who let
people know there was another dimension of consciousness to experience when
they focused on it. Plato, one of Socrates’ favorite students, started the
Platonist school of thought. Aristotle, as well as Plotinus, followed the
teachings of Socrates and Plato. St. Augustine, the early Christian theologian
and one of the founders of Christianity, was an avid fan of Plotinus and
Plato’s school of thought.
Plato’s teachings were part of Christianity’s doctrine, albeit, will a few
tweaks. Plato’s thoughts got meshed together with Stoicism and the notion that
virtue is the only good, as well as the sin story and Jesus being a God.
Plato knew fear is the threshold to courageous change. He knew people had
to face challenges to move to their next level of awareness. Fear and pain frequently
exist in the contrast we experience from unforeseen wake-up calls. It’s up to
us to cross the threshold of pain and fear and find our sense of self-direction
and self-structure.
COVID-19 is this reality’s wake up
call. The chaos created by the energy within the virus shines a light on how
separated we feel in this mass reality. We believe the coronavirus is an enemy.
But the virus is more awareness-shaker than phantom villain.
The energy we loath in COVID-19 is the psychological stimulus we need to
expand our awareness of how connected we are. The coronavirus doesn’t
discriminate in terms of race, color, or creed. Every human is this phantom’s
unwelcoming host.
The government and the religious community are in the spotlight now that
this invisible value-fulfillment seeker proves all humans are equal in its
cell-eating eyes. This coronavirus will change how humans interact with each
other, and it will change what Plato called “The Noble Lie.”
Plato’s Noble Lie became part of the human belief system more than 24
centuries ago. Plato said his ancestors believed God fills everyone’s soul with
gold, silver, and iron. But the workers, farmers, and the poor don’t have as
much of those precious elements in their God-given DNA.
The power-driven ancients who believe they had more God-given gold, silver,
and iron in their DNA, set up governments, religions, and societies that taught
and practiced the Noble Lie to the people who thought they had to believe it.
Governments and religions evolved through the years using the Nobel Lie in
a form that made sense to people who didn’t understand their ability to
self-structure, and self-direct the course of their physical lives.
Fear is the reaction we experience when we believe the current versions of
the Nobel Lie. The current Nobel Lie we experience tends to restrict the four
basic Laws of the Universe: Value Fulfillment, Energy Transformation, Spontaneity,
and Creation.
Every form of consciousness on every planet adheres to those laws. When
governments and religions try to control people with edicts and doctrines that
violate those laws, we manifest another form of physical energy in our
individual and mass reality. And that energy pushes a human reset button.
Albert Einstein said everything we see and don’t see is a form of energy.
When our thoughts vibrate on a specific frequency, we experience the energy
that vibrates on that frequency. Fearful thoughts produce a reality filled with
beliefs that violate basic universal laws.
As the consciousness of Earth reconfigures itself and changes its frequency,
we change our energy frequency along with it. The people who choose not to
change may disengage from this reality in order to experience another reality
more suited to their personal value fulfillment goals. And when they do, they
give part of their energy to the quest to bring humans together, knowing fear
is the doorway to courageous change.
