“The good news is, nobody is going to hell. The unfortunate understanding is, that were already there.”

To what depth or degree of hell you experience is entirely up to you. For as long as you stay focused to maintain your own individuality you will never become lost in the labyrinth of illusion.

The question to ask is will you be one who chooses to transcend this reality of hell through an internal commitment to your own pathway of healing? Or will you allow your mind to be controlled by systems of belief designed to keep ones entrapped in the depths of fear and pain?

I’ve witnessed religions of our world preach about a heaven and hell, as if it is some grandiose location outside ourselves, beyond the horizon awaiting an authority figures ruling approval of our mandatory obedient behavior.

The fear of tomorrow continuously laid out before us as the potential persecution of a hell fired future. Fear, fear, fear! The thirst our society has quenched itself on with the creation of its own perpetuated terror.

These religious beliefs condemn the psyche with a deceitful perception of reality based upon man-made moralities.

But what is a morality? Where do morals actually come from?

The definition of a morality would go on to explaining the differences between good, bad, right and wrong.

Yet isn’t this description of morality a promotion of our own confinement? Is it not extracting from our culture the essence of our own originality? The authentic soul bound ethical knowingness of compassion towards all of humanity?

To subject someone as being “bad”, or “wrong” is to shame them of their own dignity. To then endorse someone as “right” or “good” automatically spawns the polarity of the two into categories of inferiority. This breeds both rewards and punishments for negating who we really are, and obeying the traditions of who we are not.

It is important to remember that in some countries today, and not all that long ago within our very own nation, the religious morality supported the rape and beatings of women and children.

Search this, and you may just find for yourself the foundations of a culture bathed in bloody beliefs that were once accepted as the moral norm. Moralities that were once considered “favored” by “God”.

As a soul we are created equal, but as a human with a set of unquestioned moralities, we often deny the truth of our own equality.

How much of the Old Testament is written about “Gods” desire for man to inflict torturous exploits upon his fellow man. How much of this torturous wrath is explained to have come from “God” himself?

If you were to accurately search the origins of our religious scriptures, you would come to discover the dark ages drenched in what we would consider now to be both psychopathic and appalling.

Not only were these cruel moralities deemed ethical, they were obeyed as the necessary law of the land!

These commandments primarily revolve around casting shame, guilt, pain and punishment upon our loved ones and especially upon our children. If you truly desire to discover the truth about our religious history, you will come to find the beatings and butchery of innocent children, and the degradations of women repeated over and over again.

A god who seeks to punish people for not worshipping him? For not fearing his every command? Would this not be the psychological diagnosis of an insecure tyrannical dictator?

How deeply embedded these religious traditions have become in our culture.

I look at the world we live in, and despite the horrors I’ve witnessed, I still seek to discover the truth. While most appear to place the ever-arising atrocities of the day, as gone with the wind, out of sight, and out of mind, a burden to heavy for the heart to weigh.

The more I long for truth, the more truth is realized. Each year that passes I look back upon the compounding discoveries I’ve allowed myself to uncover. Some of what has been revealed to me fills my heart with light and joy, while other findings have allowed me to see the sheer madness of our world’s collective society.

Slavery is more prevalent today than the majority of our collective history. Children are sold into sex trades by the thousands. Our culture is fed foods and pharmaceuticals that numb them of their passion. Mindless material distractions and continuous lies are flogged like toxic injections, the cause of an ever-growing physical, mental and emotional infection. The storms of ongoing wars reflects the internal rage of our collective conscience. Habitats destroyed by greedy corporations fulfilling our societies incessant creed for consumption. A bed of empty bullet shells, a blanket of silent tears grieving. All of this and sadly, so much more.

It is only through being willing to look at the uncomfortable truth, while having the compassion to offer our light, that we utilize the power of love to understand and heal our own reality.

There is a saying, “if you want to discover the truth, follow the money”. Another useful statement would be, “If you want to discover the truth of pain and suffering, search the roots of religion”.

What is God? A hierarchy of human authority? Or is God simply the power of love? A universal life force energy, animating and revitalizing the existence of a creative consciousness?

In the state of our world today, where is the love? Where is the heart of our own humanity?

Perhaps, in order to allow in the love, we must first let go of the traditions of religious toxicity?

Yet how exactly does one begin to purge themselves of these religious toxins?

Might it depend on who or what you are choosing to learn from? Some could lead us down a pathway of our own destruction, if we allowed it. There are others that could assist us into our own enlightenment, also if we allowed it.

In regards to religion, it appears to me that if ones were to choose to learn from these old age belief systems, that they would be voluntarily choosing to experience more pain. That is unless they choose to learn from religions example of what not to believe, and to choose to take another path, the path of their own heart, the path of their authentic soul.

Unfortunately many in our world are very ungrounded, and unbeknownst to their awareness, they often times act out their lives wearing their wounded inner child on their sleeves.

It may be that ones could be seeking a more spiritual connection to themselves, seeking to heal. But the path of obeying religious dogma is not a wise choice and often times leads to even more uncertainty.

That isn’t to say there are not some truths hidden within religions as there are many, but they are wrapped up and intermingled among numerous false lies and misconceptions.

This creates an even deeper hurt as it is designed to lure people in and get them to distrust themselves while worshipping an outer authority figure as being more powerful than them.

There is so much shame, guilt, hatred and punishment embedded within the bible, and much of it is coming directly from the “all loving, yet murderous god” that many people are worshipping.

It’s contrary to the heart and designed by the elite to control the masses. Be cautions of becoming obsessed with the idea of a doomsday “end of the world” ideology.

We have had over 180,000 wars in our world since the earth has been inhabited by humans, all of which were sparked by the onslaught of the elites creation of religions. Causing conflict and separation within the hearts and minds of once loving and kind individuals.

We are in the midst of another civil war on the horizon. The belief systems of good, bad right and wrong are very strong on this planet and the amount of unresolved anger is even stronger. “Our god is the only god, or the better god” is often the prevailing winds of war. How many people in the military today kill in the name of their god? A god that they have given so much power to, yet have never met nor had any proof of existence.

Blind beliefs can be dangerous but we live in a culture that has forgotten critical thinking, we live in a culture that has forgotten how to love.

Again “the good news is, nobody is going to hell. The unfortunate understanding is, that were already there”. It is only through a shift in consciousness that we can heal our own world. It is only through healing that we can shift our consciousness. The journey home is one in the same.

Be cautious of deceitful traditions, as our world is in poverty of love, but rich and wealthy in deceptions.
