Welcome to Planet Earth: Understanding the Soul's Game on Earth
Part 2
I was playing that game with Chatgpt two weeks ago where you offer it a screenshot of your instagram and ask it to roast you, and although it really was savage lol it also gave me some genuine insights on how to improve some things.
One thing that never occurred to me is that not everyone is in the spiritual space and some concepts and language are just jargony and not clear. Since I am always asking myself how I can be of service, I am taking this seriously and will be incorporating some info posts that define some of the basic language and also perhaps lay out the foundational teachings (btw if you have ever read anything that wasn’t clear or you want better explained - leave me a comment below! I want to hear it and I will definitely follow up on it.)
In that token when I hit send on my previous post, which you may want to read first if you havn’t already, The Nature of the Game, the following question landed immediately in my mind:
But why should anyone care about observing themselves, knowing and being connected to soul and uncovering the patterns and programs that keep them away from truth?
As I said in that piece, this work is as much of a practice to me as breathing is. It is just the way that I interact with the world. I also have been seriously practicing since 2020/2021 and more unofficially practices for much much longer. Which means I have results and comparisons of before and after, and I will be as bold to say as there is nothing I would trade this journey for, and nothing I would trade my work with my teacher for. It has brought me a level of presence and peace in my own system and body, for starters, that is worth everything. Coming from a person who was perpetually in fight or flight.
So sometimes I forget that other people don’t have this and that it may sound so unnecessary actually to do work at this level.
So, why should we even care about awakening and practicing ?
Well, first of all, you don’t have to do anything. You get to live this life however you want, when this game was created it was created with free will. So although there is a design, there is also free will which adds a layer of unpredictability of course. We get to do what we want in this lifetime.
I want to note something here that my teacher said recently that reverberated as such truth in my body as I heard it, and that is that the more we awaken, the less free will we have.
Before we continue I actually just want you to stop and let that land in your body. Let it swirl around and open.

Now, why would that be the case?
When we live in ego mainly we are living in the realm of the preferences of the human alone. We can technically choose whatever we want to do in all areas (obviously not everything is possible for us all but you know what I mean).
Once we start to awaken to soul, the thing we are then opening to is truth. And what is truth? It is essentially what is fully aligned with God and our particular soul. When I use the word truth what I am referring to is a frequency that flows through all of life. Following the truth and following soul lead us to our deepest and most authentic self expression.
Sometimes this actually rubs against the preferences of the human. As an example, in my last post I told you a bit of my story, and I can tell you that my human really preferred to just love my job and stay and do that forever. Get a mortgage, buy myself a nice house. That was all clear and simple to me. It was deeply inconvenient and scary to follow the thread of truth taking me to something that was unknown.
In my experience, it is true, and the reason is that the more you bring soul into your body, the more patterns and programs that you remove that were of the ego, not of soul, the more you will be more finely guided by the deepest expression of your soul.
Of course I am not saying that your preferences go out the window. There is a way we build relationship with the human and the soul in us in how we want to live this life or what comforts we have. But you will be adjusted back to truth more and more tightly. This has been my experience particularly in my service/work.
And so, why do any of this?
Because there is sovereignty, authentic expression and deep alignment on the other side of it. There is so much healing. True and sustained transformation.
Release of patterns that have a hold of us.
Beliefs that hurt us. That make us small.
Manipulations and games we play for connection (that isn’t real).
There is also feeling the pain we never felt so that we may release it.
There is being responsible in all the ways and for all the things in our life.
There is the freedom of never wearing any mask because you are just you at all times.
Waking out of the slumber of creating from the programs that you did not choose, and waking up to the real eternal you. With the potential of everything that comes with that you.
Does that sound like a life worth pursuing?

In Tales of Earthsea, Ursula K. Le Guin wrote something along the lines of this: The more powerful the sorcerer, the more limited the choices he must make. (I am badly recalling the quote, but "the more we awaken, the less free will we have" reminded me of it.) Also, Madeleine L. Engle in A Swiftly Tilting Planet, tells of the need to root, to limit locomotion, in order to bring life. Both books are fictional stories, but I hold both as true.
