A Profound Answer to a Heartfelt Question
-
An answer I recently received from within brought great clarity to me regarding my life’s process. As I was journaling about it, I felt strong and clear guidance that it is not meant for me alone, and that I was to share it. So, without further ado, I humbly offer the following.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~“The guidance within evolves the world to a heaven that is already here.To know this is to know our destiny.”(~From the movie, “The Celestine Prophecy”~)After just having moved through the emotional process of consciously and lovingly (and clumsily) completing 3 major karmic soul connections in my life, I currently find myself ”in-between” — in between the “me” I’ve previously thought myself to be, and what feels like a more expansive “Me” which I now feel myself becoming.This in-between place feels like an itty-bitty space of “no man’s land”….like the very narrow strip of land between countries. The essence of this place feels palpably odd — awesome and exciting; and yet equally daunting.Sunday night, I could feel myself being nudged to explore what it was that felt daunting to me, so I did. I could feel a definite air of “forbidden territory” about it; like some invisible force field was saying: ”DO NOT TRESPASS!”I then became aware of how totally alone I felt; and, that I felt pissed off about feeling alone. I realized that for all the years of following the inner leading of the voice that feels like God’s within me, I still have not truly felt totally embraced by Oneness for more than brief periods of time, “here and there.” Further, I was very clear that I felt done with feeling like this, and that I just knew that we all deserve to feel more internal love and support, especially now, to assist us in moving through these huge inner transitions.I guess you could say I ended up throwing an internal fit (!), which culminated in a tearful yet serious and commanding out-loud question to God…. ”WHY DON’T I FEEL YOU AND YOUR LOVE?”Moments later, as the tears subsided, I noticed the phrase - ”the pledge of allegiance” – quietly come into my awareness. When I focused my attention on what this awareness was saying to me, I realized it was the answer to my question! I knew in a flash that the reason I could not feel my Oneness with what I knew was the deepest truth within me, is because I had unknowingly been taught to “pledge my allegiance” to an authority and to an illusion of truth outside of me!And not just once….but over and over and over again; 5 days a week, 8 months out of the year, for at least 6 years! I realized that the words of that pledge are seared into my memory, as if I had continued to say them ever since those early years. (Which, through my unconscious inner allegiance, I actually had been doing just that, through my unconscious thoughts and actions).I then realized that in all of my life since these early years, never have I used the “creative word” (law of creation) over and over, to pledge or promise myself to make manifest a reality for myself, anywhere near to the extent to which I had unknowingly used it to ensure my unconscious allegiance to an outer authority!I felt stunned by the impact of the truth of this. I saw how I came to lose contact with my own inner power, my inner authority (through the “still, small voice”), and the possession of my own conscious free will. I realized that through this pledge I had innocently aligned myself with all that this outer authority stands for; its illusion of control and law over my life; how it conducts itself; and its example of leadership and treatment of Life.I flashed on what a different world we would have created if we had been encouraged to pledge (from within our hearts), allegiance to Love, oneness, peace, and The Golden Rule, over and over again!I felt overwhelmed with the implications of this, for ALL of Humanity! I figure that most, if not all, countries have their own version of a pledge of allegiance, which their young children are instructed to recite daily in school. This means that, en masse, humanity has, and still is, unconsciously pledging its individual and collective allegiance to outer authority, outer power and control, competition for power and control, multiplicity, division, “we/they” dualistic thinking, etc. – and it is being created all through the use of the precious innocence and trusting nature of all of us as children … with our cute little hands placed over our open and tender little hearts.And so it begins … the grooming process for our journey into duality and into becoming unconscious of the separation in our minds from our own true Selves — from the Life that is really living us, beyond the awareness of our well-conditioned duality minds. (At this point of my becoming aware of all of this, I just lost it and had to cry for awhile, for all of us).~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~I not only received the answer to my emphatic question, but I was now also able to see what I was sensing as that invisible and daunting “no trespassing” feel of this in-between place. I could totally see that there is a HUGE, well-concealed, fundamental ”conflict of interest” going on within me, and that it is at the core of what keeps me bound to duality! I can now see where duality lives within me….within my unconscious split or dual sense of allegiance; which (gulp) I actually largely created myself, albeit innocently, as a child. (Because of my growing sense of my oneness with all of Humanity, I can also feel the truth of this for all of us….for our collective unconscious split in our allegiance).I immediately knew that with full INNER authority, and the consciousness of oneness and peace, it was time to simply out loud, rescind all of my previous pledges of allegiance of any kind, to anything other than my own, true Inner Authority. And, since “to rescind” not only means to repeal and cancel a contract” (or pledge), but also to “restore the parties to the positions they would have occupied had there been no contract” (or pledge), I knew that my TRUE, inner “default setting” of innocence, oneness and unity with the One True Power of Love and Light that is the Mind and Life of my Creator, now has been reinstated! And along with that, my allegiance to Its “still, small voice” within.I then made up a new pledge of Inner Allegiance, to replace the words of the unconscious pledge to and for duality. In essence, it becomes a promise and pledge of allegiance and alignment to my already present Christhood, my Divine Heritage, my Oneness with All … my Birthright!~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~It occurs to me that if every person who feels a resonance to the truth of this felt inspired from within themselves to do the same, the effect of this on Humanity’s collective consciousness would be immense and profound. It would create a quiet, conscious rescindment, en masse, of our earlier pledges of allegiance to duality and outer authority; and a quiet, conscious re-establishment, en masse, of our individual and collective allegiance to unity, oneness, love of, and for, the Whole. This would be a giant step toward making manifest the consciousness John Lennon asked us decades ago to IMAGINE …. and the New Earth we all know deep in our Collective Heart we are destined for!It also occurs to me that all of this is done through the conscious use of our free will. First we choose to see the truth of what the illusion is showing us….that duality simply allows us to experience that which is NOT the truth of who we are (hence, the illusion and law of opposites), so we can gain the experience of that which IS the truth of who we are! Secondly, we then use that realization of the truth, along with our choice to consciously use our free will anew, to fully align NOW with the truth of who we are. I feel this is how Humanity’s awakening and subsequent ascension occurs from within Humanity, which is the only way it can be created, since we are a free will species of Creator “godlings”!! (That we forgot this fact has not negated or deleted its truth).The fundamental “inner conflict” of Humanity which keeps us each locked into duality is transcended NOW by us consciously undoing that which we unknowingly were taught as children to align ourselves with. NOW, we can knowingly and joyously align ourselves anew, reinstating our allegiance with our Inner Oneness, Truth and Authority….the I AM-ness we all share.It’s revolutionary, yet it’s accomplished through quiet, peaceful inner evolution. It’s accomplished through appreciating the experience of duality for bringing us to the awakened awareness of its illusory nature. That allows us to take our focus off of the illusion so we may now choose to re-establish ourselves in our true Reality of Oneness. Then, the wholeness of our Light from this higher frequency of consciousness, can powerfully support the miracle of our Earth Mother’s Birth into Light….and thus, our own!AND….because of our “time” in duality consciousness, we now will know forever the experience of FEELING just how precious and utterly exquisite our true Home, our true Beingness as One, IS!“All your past except its beauty is gone, and nothing is left but a blessing.”(~A Course in Miracles~)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~“You must become a sovereign nation of light unto yourselves.You are a complete unified field of light unto yourself.Look fully at who and what you represent.You are each here as Emissaries of Light,as Ambassadors of the Creator.You are here to grasp completion.”(~source unknown~)~*~*~*~*~*~Completion, in my experience, entails awakening to how I unconsciously used thought, word, and deed (the principles of creation) to create my own duality illusion. Beyond that, it entails choosing anew, claiming the Light that I AM, and creating my own Reality of unity and Oneness….by listening and following the truth and guidance within me, and supporting that in others.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~If you resonate with this, and feel it can serve others, please share it as widely as you feel moved to. Simple truths….uncovered, shared, and quietly acted upon by many….are often what create true and profound leaps in consciousness!With so much love and heartfelt blessings to all, I say thank you for Being the Emissaries of Light that you ARE!

Thank you for sharing your experiences. It’s amasing how people are having so many different experiences, but coming to the same conclusion. I myself, had a near death experience. I felt the love of God and the knowing that we are all one. That kind of experience, changes your life and you don’t want to go back to the old ways of thinking.

Wonderful to hear from you, Red Robin! Would you mind sharing what your new pledge of allegiance is? I’m sure some would benefit from it and could modify it to suit their needs.
