Critical Thinking: Is It Time For Humanity To Create A New Story?
Legacy signals

When it comes to what is taking place in the world, the mainstream media is at hand to inform people. This source generally creates the impression that what they have to say is the truth.
Most, if not all, of what this source focuses on is negative and so, if someone spends a lot of time consuming what this source comes out with, it is not going to be a surprise if they have a very negative view of the world. Another consequence of this is that they can feel very low and believe that they are powerless to do anything about what is going on.
Stepping Back
Without even going into whether what this source says is the truth, what is clear is that they don’t present a very balanced view of the world. It is as though something is only newsworthy if it is negative; if it isn’t, it won’t be spoken about.
The problem with this is that it results in so many people having a lopsided view of reality and it has a negative effect on their wellbeing. When someone is in this position, they are going to be a shadow of the person who they could be.
Another Part
Furthermore, there is what appears to be going on ‘out there’ and then there is the person who views what appears to be going on ‘out there’. In other words, the viewer is not playing a part in what is going on.
The world will be the way it is due to ‘bad’ people, what ‘mother nature’ is doing and due to incompetent politicians, for instance. The viewer is then going to be nothing more than a powerless victim.
A Power Imbalance
If the point of focus was on the alte
ative media, the world would be seen as being the way that it is due to what the ‘elites’ are doing, and have been doing, for thousands of years. Anyway, the average person won’t be able to do a lot about what is going on.
If someone like this does believe that the world will change, it could be seen as something that will only take place if they vote for the right person or if someone/something saves them. They, along with most of their fellow human beings, will just have to go along with the status quo.
Another Angle
However, even though it may appear as though the citizenry are just observers of what is going on ‘out there’ and have no control, what if this is an illusion? What if they are collectively creating what is going on in the world?
If this is the case, it would mean that the average person is not merely a victim of circumstances and together, with their fellow human beings, they can change the world. Together, they can create a world that is very different from the world that currently exists.
The Current Experience
For a lot of people, it is not necessary for them to go to hell as they are already in hell. If someone is in this position, it could be because they live in a very dangerous place, don’t have enough to eat and drink, or are in an abusive relationship, for example.
Through being in this position, someone might doubt if their life will ever change. Their life may have been this way for a very long time, and they could feel totally helpless, which is going to mean that they are in a very low place.
A Collective Pursuit
When it comes to creating a new world, the more people that are involved the better. However, it would be naive to say that everyone needs to change as this is highly unlikely to happen.
Besides, it has been said that only a small part of the population needs to change in order for there to be a shift. At this point, someone might wonder what it is exactly that they need to do to change the world and to help to create a new story.
A Key Part
While they might believe that they can only change the world by what they do, there is another, more effective way for them to change the world; by embodying the very thing that they want to see more of. What this comes down to is that for one to be able to experience something ‘out there’, they will need to be resonating at the right frequency internally.
Therefore, if one wants to create a more harmonious and loving world, but they are in a place of disharmony and hate, that is what they are going to create more of. And, even if they are embodying these things at the level of their conscious mind, their unconscious mind could be embodying something else entirely.
A Time of Healing
Taking this into account, it is not going to be enough for one to have the right thoughts and feelings; they will also need to work through the baggage that is held in their unconscious mind/body. Another part of this is that most of what shows up in their life, and the impact that they have on the planet as a whole, is coming from their unconscious mind, not their conscious mind.
So, even if they were full of positivity up top, there is still going to be another part of them that is having a massive impact on their life and the whole planet. The reason that their inner world will affect their outer world and co-create the collective story is that they are not separate from anyone or anything; this is just an illusion that is created by their ego-mind, along with their eyes.
Final Thoughts
When it comes to one’s unconscious mind, this part of them can carry trauma from their adult life and childhood years, trauma that has been passed down from their ancestors, and past life trauma. What this trauma will do is make it harder, if not impossible, for one to embody the very states that will lead to the creation of a very different story or dream.
If one is carrying a lot of baggage and they are unclear about how to deal with this, they may need to reach out for exte
al support. This can be provided by the assistance of a therapist or healer.
