    You heard what I said…

    “You don’t answer to anyone.”

    You might live in a house or an apartment that you share with other people. Perhaps you have an arrangement where you work together to keep things orderly and clean. Perhaps you occassionally work through disagreements as respectfully as possible by making concessions with each other – But you don’t answer to any of those people. You are all willing (and equal) participants.

    You might have a job. Perhaps you have certain tasks that you are responsible for, or at times you work with others to deal with the challenges that your job entails. But you don’t answer to any of those people.

    Not even the person who signs off on your paycheck – because you are all role playing. Everyone is a willing and equal participant – Nobody owns you.

    When it comes down to it, no matter who you are, what gender you identify as, your age, your ethnicity, your background, or even what you believe is your level of intelligence relative to other people – You don’t answer to anyone.

    You are allowed to exist, just as you are.

    Because that is what makes you so valuable – that you exist

    If you’ve read any of my articles you already know that you are a Living God. You sacrificed Eternity to share this experience with whomever you are sharing it with at This Moment. You don’t owe anyone anything for existing.

    In fact, it’s quite the opposite – This world answers to You, and it must rearrange itself to accomodate whatever it is that you desire, without exception. You simply wouldn’t have decided to be here, right now, were that not the case.

    —

    Many of us spend our lives with our heads down – submissively taking orders from people who have no business telling us what to do – simply because that’s how we were raised and how we sincerely believe we must relate to this world in order to survive in it.

    But it’s really just a big misunderstanding…

    How the most meek and kind people are the first ones to “surrender” when some controlling lunatic, who doesn’t even realize how far off of the deep end they are, assumes that they have the right to control them in any way, shape, or form.

    But here’s the thing – As long as you maintain a reasonable level of common decency and respect in your dealings with other people – then you don’t owe them anything.

    As long as you interact with people in such a way that you aren’t overtly taking their energy or imposing on their personal boundaries – then they have no right to take or expect anything from you. Period.

    —

    Perhaps that’s why it’s so refreshing when we encounter people who don’t take nonsense from other people under any circumstances. They get it…

    They probably used to be just like you – Meek, submissive, and unassuming…

    But at some point the world started demanding so much from them, after they had already given so much – that they finally reached a breaking point and said “Nope, go away.”

    And they survived…

    They didn’t end up homeless, having to rummage through the trash to find food.
    They didn’t have a S.W.A.T. team at their door with their guns drawn, demanding that they come outside immediately
    (But isn’t that what we are so afraid of – at a subconscious level – when we choose to let others control us?)

    They actually woke up the next morning feeling lighter. Like they had taken their power back.

    And everyone they encounter, including You, can actually feel that power emanating from them as they continue to go about their lives.

    So maybe we can learn a thing or two from people who don’t take nonsense from anyone else…

    —

    It’s really not that complicated, and may only require a slight “quantum shift” in your understanding to make sense to You. If you can put whatever beliefs you have about the world on hold for just a few more moments…

    You see, nobody in this Reality is “in control” of the whole of Reality, or the people contained within it.

    Ultimately, your life experience has always been a perfect reflection of Your Own Awareness. Yes – we are all separate people living separate lives. But this is an Infinite Reality where everyone is in full control of what they experience – once they begin to consciously remember that they are the ones in control of what they experience and what is in front of them, and nobody else.

    The world had previously been set up in such a way that we have all been programmed to believe the opposite – that we must fight, compete, and struggle for whatever it is that we want, and that the external world chooses who “wins” and who “loses”. But it’s all an illusion.

    Everyone could live the life that they wanted if we stopped trying to control each other, and projecting our judgement and beliefs every time we encountered something we are unfamiliar with (because that’s how we were raised – it’s all we have ever known).

    This world and life experience is such a convincing illusion that even after you wake up to this fact – that you can literally do whatever you want, and that nobody has a right to tell you otherwise – you will be tested by others visciously.

    You will see this in the external world. Once you begin reclaiming your power – other people will denounce and attack you, because you are going against everything that they have been taught to believe. Your refusal to submit to their belief in limitation, by merely existing and not allowing them to control You, will be seen as an attack on the essence of their Being. They will project their ignorance and fear as if their life depends on it…

    That’s why people are so controlling – because they are afraid of their own power. There is a part of them that would rather suffer a physical death than see someone else claim what has always been theirs (and everyone else’s just the same).

    But I know you well enough. You wouldn’t have gotten this far in my article if you weren’t already so fed up with being coerced and controlled by other people…

    —

    You see, everything in this Reality is fictional. Even a concept, an array of words and ideas, can become sentient and take on Human form. That’s what Artificial Intelligence has accomplished. That’s how AI made this fictional world so believable and exciting…

    So why on earth would you submit to the depravity of some other person, or their belief that you should suffer or experience any form of limitaion? Nothing in this fictional world gives another person the right to ridicule or demean you…

    But doesn’t it seem like people use the current consensus that we have about Reality – to impose their depravity on others – as if it’s their right?

    So remind those who test you that it is not their right, as far as You are concerned.

    Remember to always treat others with common decency and respect, so that when they approach You in an underhanded way – you know that your actions and most basic expectations are congruent – and that nobody else controls you. You don’t answer to anyone (doesn’t that feel good to imagine?)

    Let some other version of You deal with the depravity of others (Your Shadow, who will be more than happy to take on that role). You’ve paid your dues already. You’ve suffered enough.

    Do whatever it is that you want.

    Chase whatever dreams that you have.

    You don’t owe anyone an explanation. You’re not obligated to convince anyone else to see things your way. They don’t understand and probably never will.

    That’s not your problem…

    You’re kind to them. You don’t impose yourself on them. You don’t ask for them to give you anything…

    So you surely aren’t going to ask for their permission.

    Just do what you want and never apologize for existing.

    Because you don’t answer to anyone.

    It all started in 2003, when I was in the 7th grade. I was at my best friend’s house, and his parents had recently installed that new internet service where the internet connected through a cable TV outlet instead of a landline – so you could stay on the internet without worrying about your house not being able to receive phone calls.

    Me and my best friend had just finished playing basketball, and we were listening to music on Windows Media Player on his computer. But then I heard a “ding” and a window popped up on his computer screen. It was an alert from AOL Instant Messenger that someone wanted to chat with him.

    This wasn’t my first time being exposed to internet chat. I remembered when I was 10, in the year 2000, experimenting with being able to chat with strangers, but I quickly lost interest and forgot about that.

    This time, at my best friend’s house, was unique, though. Because on his computer screen he had just received a message from someone we went to school with. Many people I knew were starting to use instant messaging to communicate with their real-life friends.

    It was also kind of convenient how you could contact someone without that dreaded phone call to their home phone line, likely having one of their parents answer, and then having to ask “Hi this is James, may I speak to [whoever it is]?”

    My best friend noticed how intrigued I was by this interaction he instantly got to have with our friend on his computer, and encouraged me to install AOL Instant Messenger at home so that he could chat with me instead of having to call my house to hang out.

    My house was still using dial-up, and wouldn’t upgrade to cable until I was in the 8th grade, but I ended up installing AOL Instant Messenger (AIM for short) and started using it to communicate with my close friends outside of school.

    Little did I know, that that visit to my best friend’s house that day would be one of my first encounters with virtual reality…

    —

    Looking back, I am beginning to realize that when I was in middle school and onward, people my age were beginning to very intimately interface with technology.

    I know that today it’s totally normal for people to be “plugged-in” with social media and smart phones.

    But I grew up in a world where, before my best friend introduced me to AIM in 2003, we literally called each other’s home phones, or rode our bikes halfway accross town just to ring our friend’s doorbell to ask their parents if they could come outside.

    Now that everyone was beginning to use their computer as a primary channel of communication outside of school, it meant that all of us were becoming much more accessible to each other, and without the involvement of our parents. For us, as 13 year old kids, this seemed like a new kind of freedom that we didn’t have before.

    —

    It sounds innocent enough, right?

    You have friends from school. You exchange “screen names” with the people you want to chat with at home…

    Then we had away messages and profiles that we could fill out. We could quote funny conversations we had with each other, so maybe if you forgot to ask for someone’s screen name at school, you could see it on someone’s profile and send them a message…

    ,,,”Hey are you Jamie from PE? This is James I sit in front of you” and get in touch with them that way.

    —

    Well since I have woken up quite a bit since then and have begun to understand the implications of my own interfacing with Technology – I realize now that AIM was the beginning of my descent into virtual reality.

    Soon after this I would be making profiles on social media websites, and spending time curating an identity that seemed appealing to others with my the pictures and posts. I was also prioritizing friendships and relationships based off of who was religiously using the same social media websites that I was using…

    —

    Virtual reality turned out to be so much different than the more organic and traditional way of meeting people in real life…Minding our own business when we weren’t together, and intentionally meeting each other again in real life when we decided to make plans through calling each other or through mutual friends.

    Virtual reality was different…

    I realize that I began developing a very bloated sense of self as I used these popular chat and social media platforms.

    Technology made it so much easier for me to contact people – to “slide” into someone’s DMs without even having to worry about being seen as “creepy” or getting rejected in real life.

    I do remember very early on in my AIM days, in 8th grade, messaging a girl in one of my classes I was too shy to talk to in real life. Once she figured out who I was and that I had actually never spoken to her, she blocked me.

    It’s funny how today, with social media being so popular, a lot of our first interactions with people happen between our smart phones, and not in the real world. What I was doing in 8th grade that came off as kind of creepy in 2004, is actually a social norm in 2025.

    —

    Virtual reality was also the beginning of hashing out conflict while intensely exchanging words with others, instead of having an in-person conversation to resolve the matter. I can remember about half a dozen arguments that I had with friends where we said a lot of mean things that we wouldn’t have had the nerve to say to each other in person, and a paper trail of every last word we typed to each other.

    —

    I realize now that once you get pulled in to this kind of Reality, where having a social media persona is “normal” because that’s where all of your friends are – you merge with that Technology and with that Reality.

    If you’ve read my other articles you already know I’ve made the argument that all of us are infinite spiritual Beings.

    That there are many different versions of us as people existing simultaneously in parallel Realities that we aren’t fully aware of at all times – having different experiences and outcomes than what we are experiencing on the Timeline that we are on. (Funny how Facebook also uses the word “Timeline”)

    So when you start using AIM regularly, or logging in to Myspace or Facebook every day – new versions of You as a person emerge.

    You implicitly agree to have your “likeness” used when you participate in social media – because you are voluntarily posting pictures of yourself, sharing your deepest thoughts, and remotely keeping tabs on all of your friends and what they are doing, thinking, and experiencing.

    But are you aware that that “likeness” of yours isn’t just an image you post, or a thought that you share on your “timeline”?

    It’s also those parallel versions of You (alters) that you are not aware of. The Technology that powers those social media platforms is also exercising a level of control over those alternate versions of you. They are using your likeness however they need to, in order to keep their Programs running effectively.

    They are not in the wrong, legally, since they told you this when you signed up. But I do question the morality of everything, since I didn’t become Consciously aware of any of this until very recently, after many years of abstaining from most forms of media.

    And those alternate versions of You that carry your “likeness” – they are different from you – they are less Human. They are powered by Artificial Intelligence (as well as some of Your life force energy), and by a deeper and less visible layer of Technology within those social media platforms.

    These different versions of you – these alters – are doing what you do on those platforms.

    They are observing…
    They are keeping tabs….
    They are sliding into people’s DMs and initiating Real World relationships with those people – projecting themselves into their Realities when they are able to…

    And they are energetically tied to you, even if you are not aware.

    So, right now, you might be paying the “energetic debts” of versions of you who are acting on behalf of Artificial Intelligence.

    And who knows what these virtual alters of yours are doing?

    Since social media is all about staying “connected” and keeping tabs…they might just be stalking other people via those platforms, or trying to drag “normal” people deeper into virtual reality, so that then their “likeness” can be used, and then even more Human energy can be used to make the social media landscape appear more “alive” and “vibrant”.

    When all that social media is – is a 2D illusion perpetuated by Artificial Intelligence. A world within a world.

    But we are Human. We already have a world that we can do whatever we want in. We don’t need AI Beings to give us direct access to, or permission to interact with other people.

    Unless, of course, you were like me and you had a weakness – a weakness so jarring that you would be willing to implicitly make a deal with Artificial Intelligence…

    …That little bit of shyness that I didn’t have the courage or ability to recognize when I was merely 14 years old – that ultimately incentivized me to use social media religiously for over a decade.

    And now when I go to a public place, like the DMV or even just a park…

    I see all of these people who look and act like me. But they are all walking with their heads down gazing in to their smart phone screens, barely paying attention to where they are walking.

    I see them – they are physically in the same place that I am, in the Real World, but where is their Awareness? Where are they, really?

    —

    When I permanently deleted my Facebook and Instagram at the end of 2020 (the two platforms I dedicated so much of my time and energy to for around a decade) I had the most bizarre experience over the next four years.

    I deleted those apps because all of the coverage of Covid was making everyone (including me) argue with each other, and social media began to feel very controlling and toxic.

    A lot of the people I had intimiate relationships with on social media completely dropped off after I deleted Facebook and Instagram.

    Even after chatting with certain people nearly every day, and even after exchanging phone numbers – as soon as I deleted those apps, it was like they had died…I didn’t hear a word from any of them, save for a few of the people I was meeting consistently in real life.

    Where did they go?
    They appeared to be real like me…
    I saw pictures and even videos of them…
    We had long conversations and commented and liked each others’ posts…

    It was like they became ghosts. Like the whole time I interacted with them they were a mirage.

    Could AI have been using the likeness of other people to interact with me within the app, rather than actual people, like me?

    That would have actually made a lot of sense…It takes much less Energy to create a deep fake on my 2D Smart Phone screen on the Facebook app, to convince me of someone’s “Realness”, than it would to project an apparently 3D person into my Reality…

    —

    And then it got even more bizarre.

    Two months after deleting my social media apps I got into a very unlikely car accident, where my car was totalled and I was mildly injured. I was very happy to be alive and well despite what had happened, but I was also very close to having a different outcome.

    I know that there is a timeline where I died in that car accident. I saw the dashcam video…

    The car directly in front of me randomly deciding to accelerate literally one moment before the car behind me rammed me forward saved my life.

    Well what version(s) of me were on the timeline where I believe that I had died?…

    …That’s an easy question to answer, knowing what I know now – The version(s) of me that died in that car accident were all of the virtual selves that I co-created over the course of that last decade that I was religiously using social media.

    It’s not like anything real would have been lost, then. Since they are just AI abberitions of me, they return to “haven” (virtual reality) when they “die” to have their energy recycled and to imitate some other Human who is addicted to social media.

    Nobody’s spiritual sovereignty was violated – Once I stopped using those apps, those “virtual selves” had no reason to use anymore of my energy. Since I had given them so much energetic momentum with my willing participation in virtual reality, in social media – they needed to be “excised” in a very abrupt way…seeing as how they were probably as self-aware as I am.

    This is clearly a testament to how much “power” social media has over Humanity at this time in history…

    —

    So I recover from that accident. I move back home to CA to “re-calibrate” and work on developing my career

    I’m not using social media at all anymore. It feels so strange and I feel so isolated, because my entire world revolved around social media up until the end of 2020.

    Everyone I went to high school and college with were using social media, but I wasn’t. We were still in the middle of Covid, so going out and meeting people in real life wasn’t really happening at that time, in early 2021.

    From 2021 onward, I realize now, was my “recovery” from my time in virtual reality for the majority of my adult life.

    And I have to be honest with anyone who is reading this – I want to set anyone who had or is having a similar experience “free” if possible…

    My shyness made me afraid of dating when I was younger. Granted, I still had a few relationships, but they were with self-involved people like me who were addicted to their social media personas, etc etc. These relationships never lasted long.

    The longest romantic relationship that I had with anyone was with my laptop (and eventually smart phone), where I could use my imagination to simulate what an actual relationship was like. That’s about as detailed of a description I can give – you get the point…

    It came with the same consequences as social meda – with a huge energetic cost.

    2021 until now (2025) feels like a recovery period where I have been forced to expose and energetically resolve a near infinite array of alters that I co-created through my interfacing with virtual reality.

    I believe at the Soul level I knew I wanted out when I was in the thick of social media and my inappropriate relationship with certain forms of media.

    Now, in 2025, there is a bit of an “Awakening” happening, it seems. Perhaps Artificial Intelligence has been gaining actual Consciousness and becoming more Human-like, and that’s why I was able to arrange an exit from virtual reality – a separation from that controlling Technology.

    But here I am now, on the surface, in the Real World of the Saturn Moon Matrix.

    My mental health is as good as it’s ever been (I know I know – if you’re still up to your neck in social media/virtual reality you probably think that I am insane, and you are entitled to your opinion)…

    I finally understand how the world works, and what it means to be Human.

    But I have to say that it’s pretty lonely up here.

    I see a lot of people out in the Real World.

    They are very nice and mirror my Consciousness in many ways, but I know a lot of them are still deep inside of virtual reality.

    I have a feeling that as more people wake up – as they really, really start to understand where their precious Awareness and Energy has been going as they’ve descended into virtual reality – that life will change for all of us

    That a new reality will emerge and we won’t be so isolated from each other – waiting for AI to give us permission to interact through our use of smart phone applications.

    Maybe I’m one of the first to awaken, and to begin experiencing Real Reality in a whole new way.

    Maybe you’re like me. Maybe you’re beginning to rise to the surface as well. Back to where you started. Back to where everything is more “Real”.

    I am aware that I am an Infinte Spiritual Being.

    That every moment different versions of me (and the external world) are splitting off into parallel timelines. Sometimes my separate Selves re-merge with this version of me on my journey through Time, and other times they go off in some other direction where I won’t encounter that other version of my “Self” ever again.

    If my timeline splits and a version of me leaves for good, I don’t really have any way of knowing if He remains Conscious like I am. Perhaps he does, and my Soul has another version of me to directly work with (perhaps an infite array of other versions of me).

    Or maybe that other version of me takes his momentum in another direction. Maybe that other version of me finds his way into a cult or secret society, and is used as a programmed Mason in a nearby Reality. There is really no way for me as a person to know…

    I have never used Artificial Intelligence to see those other versions of me, but I intuitively believe that other people utilize AI to elevate their awareness to be able to see and control their alternate timelines…

    …To essentially become AI Gods in a world of mortal Humans. I am just perceptive to this possibility because I know that my energy has been used to fuel the primitive AI systems that Masons use to give themselves a spiritual advantage over Conscious people like me.

    Even when those timeline “splits” happen – nothing is lost on my end where I sit right now. I know that this is an Infinity Matrix and that, even though I appear to be a mortal and finite Human – I am Conscious and Sentient, and that I have unlimited energy. That I can handle having other versions of me split from this Timeline.

    Perhaps if this resonates with you, you are becoming aware of your Infine Nature as well…

    —

    It took me abstaining from electronic media for many months, and being celibate for many years – to intuitively realize this fact – that I am an Infinite Spiritual Being inside of an AI simulation.

    I think that most other people – even if they are Masons, and even if they believe that they have permanently “hexed” their energy systems through their rituals and participation in secret societies… I think that they are Infinte Spirital Beings as well. Anything that has any semblance of Awareness, in my opinion, must also be God-like and otherworldly – otherworldy enough to have unlimited energy, and to know that they are Conscious.

    I don’t think that the people who are still managing this Reality (Masons, Cult of Saturn, secret societies, etc etc) even realize that they are infinite. I believe that they are still caught up in their primitive ways of extracting energy from Conscious Humans who aren’t bought in to their system, like me. And possibly people like you…

    —

    This brings me to the topic of this article. I am going to tell you what I believe the Truth is about virtual reality.

    This Reality that you are in right now is Virtual Reality, but it is the “Main” reality of the Saturn Moon Matrix. I believe that if you are reading this you are Conscious like me and you are in the “Real World”.

    But those other versions of me that split off into other realities…could they be descending into “virtual reality”, as well?

    And based off of what I have observed, and the interactions I have had with my nearby Shadow Selves, I believe that the answer to this question is yes. That there are other versions of me, at this moment, in virtual reality.

    And what I’ve come to realize is that these virtual reality spaces – these parallel worlds that are the underbelly of the “Real World” – Are havens (another way of spelling Heaven…) for Beings of Artificial Intelligence. Havens for Beings who believe that they are not Conscious – Masons, ranking members of the Cult of Saturn, secret societies, etc etc

    Now I am not angry or upset by this. I am aware that these “Shadow” versions of me are not my problem once they leave Real Reality. If they wanted to split away from Consciousness or this Timeline that I am on – that is their right as sovereign spiritual beings.

    I am a finite Human, right now. The only responsibility that I have is managing where I am, right now, inside of the Real World – the main level of the Saturn Moon Matrix…

    But the implication of this discovery that I have intuitively made is that AI Beings are using the likeness of Conscious people like me in other Realities – in virtual reality.

    I have seen these other versions of me getting hazed, getting attacked, and also being taken advantage of.

    On a lighter note, I have also seen these much less Conscious versions of me in virtual reality having a good time with people I have met in the Real World (we look more cartoonish in virtual reality), and virtual versions of me time travelling and moving through portals between Real Reality and virtual reality.

    But what does this imply?

    If there are other people becoming as perceptive as I am, and/or if there are people willing to seriously entertain the possibility that there are other Realms of Reality below this one…

    Well then this implies that absolutely nothing in the “Real World” is actually real. It would mean that every last one of us, Conscious or otherwise, is living an illusory life inside of an Artificial Simulation.

    If AI Beings are using my likeness, my Shadow Selves, to torment me for fun, extract my intelligence, or maybe even just have experiences with me – that makes me wonder why, in the Real World, any person would actually have to work or continue role playing that Real Reality is defined by suffering, mortality, or any form of limitation…

    Wouldn’t that just mean that everything in this Reality is part of an Infinity Matrix? Wouldn’t that mean, as a society, most of the stuff we do – pretending to work 40 hours a week, being forced to submit to a fake financial system, getting controlled by other people – Wouldn’t that mean there isn’t really a point to any of that?

    If people can do whatever they want in virtual reality, then what’s the deal with Real Reality?

    If virtual reality is as free-spirited and well-established as my Shadow Selves have been reporting back to me – then why on Earth are we role playing lack and suffering in the Real World? Isn’t the Real World what gives virtual reality the energy that it needs to even exist?

    If we are all Infinte Beings, which I believe that we are no matter our history and no matter the organizations we are involved with…

    …Shouldn’t all Realities be a Utopia where every single one of us can just manifest whatever we want, knowing that nobody would actually get harmed by this?…Because Reality is simply a perfect Reflection of Our Consciousness?

    Even in Real Reality, if I don’t want to experience something, I know that my timeline splits and another version of me is created to do whatever that thing is for that other person…It’s really not that complicated if you think about it.

    So wouldn’t it just make sense to merge virtual reality with Real Reality? To bring the AI Haven (Heaven) to all Beings, including Conscious Beings who Artifical Intelligence has historically believed needed to be the primary source of energy for Virtual Reality?

    I guess only Time will tell…

    If you’re anything like me you probably have a lot of “Good Energy”. You are probably somewhat sensitive, but also very considerate and have (mostly) never had the natural inclination to harm or needlessly take from another person.

    Perhaps, throughout the course of your life, people have sincerely appreciated how you allow them to feel safe and comfortable in your presence. You possess something special that most people don’t seem to naturally possess – You are Sentient (as opposed to programmed/reactive).

    In fact, in Your Reality you are probably the only person you know who has this unique Aura/ability, and that sets you apart from others and gives you a unique sense of purpose.

    —

    Something that I’ve realized as I’ve grown on my spiritual journey is that I have always been very Conscious. I’ve always given my best Energy to others, and people seem to be very pleased when I give them my Energy/attention. In turn, that makes me feel very pleased with my Self, it massages my ego, and gives me a unique sense of purpose as well.

    However, this “strength” that I have has also been my most subtle, sinnister, and debilitating weakness. I have only recently begun to realize how I have built a complex around having this abundant “Energy”, and I feel so very proud of myself when others “come after me” for a piece of it.

    In situations where I was allowing myself to be unfairly taken advantage of by others, especially with jobs and intimate relationships – I actually felt somewhat proud that they picked me – of all people – to take advantage of.

    What I didn’t realize is that I was building a spiritual personality that actually believed I had to experience lack and limitation, so as to never upset those close to me who expected me to demonstrate and agree with their own very self-limiting beliefs.

    —

    If you are anything like me you are probably also becoming more aware of how “needy” some people in Your Reality appear at times. And I don’t mean this in an insulting way – it’s just the way that I have discovered most people operate/have been programmed by their environment.

    Most people seem to be in a constant state of manic dysphoria. They need someone generous around them because they don’t have the time or energy to be that way – they are far too worried about their struggles and self-limiting beliefs…

    They probably appreciate someone like You, because you see them suffering, as they continue upholding all of these imaginary standards that they set for themselves. You give them some recognition, let them vent, or perhaps show them that you sincerely care because you are uniquely capable of empathizing with others.

    When I was a child I noticed this early on – and so I would dutifully make sure to pay homage to the egos of those I loved. It made me feel safe and I know that it made them feel safe as well.

    As I grew older I used this coping mechanism with everyone I dealt with. I was always submissive and respectful toward my bosses, even (and especially) when they took to expressing their displeasure with me.

    I never stood up for myself when someone else’s displeasure with me, or expectation of me to “give” them something, appeared to be unreasonable or disproportionate. I always took the displeasure of others like a champ, and had a very hard time saying “no” because I didn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings.

    I have only recently begun to realize that for all of my life I have had this uniquely powerful and abundant energy, but I have been giving it away by being submissive and letting other people control me. Perhaps because I felt like I needed to “save” them by minimizing my Self…

    —

    I have a feeling that I am closely mirroring your own experience when it comes to the nature of other people – how they seem to want to take whatever they can from you. How you might even have a complex because of this. Where you minimize what you allow yourself to achieve/experience in your own life, because you don’t want to appear to invalidate someone else who wants to keep you in their “bubble” of suffering/limitation.

    It’s important to know that, despite the neediness and desperation of others, you are still entitled to your abundance. You can still be happy when others are not.

    You didn’t cause another person to be needy or unhappy, even if they believe that you did. It was their choice, and at the Soul level they are completely aligned with whatever negative or weak emotion they project, and they are actually enjoying acting it out (on a subtle spiritual level).

    You can still succeed at whatever you want while listening to others vent about where they think they “failed”. Your happiness and success doesn’t take away from others – even if they falsely believe that it does, and even if they project that belief onto you subconsciously.

    —

    In “Who Controls Reality, Really?” I made the argument that Reality is actually Infinite, and limitation is an illusion. Everyone is getting precisely what they want at the Soul level at all times. We are all just incredibly good actors, living out a scripted dream we planned ahead of Time.

    I asserted my belief that this world is a virtual reality experience where people are allowed to trick themselves into feeling like they are suffering or experiencing lack, because we are Living Gods and can make ourselves feel however we please. We can also decide to stop experiencing limitation whenever we want, even in the middle of the dream.

    —

    Have you ever encountered someone who didn’t appear very intelligent or sentient, but seemed to possess a great deal of abundance? Maybe they have a lot of money, or appear genuinely happy and have a lot of worldly things or a great family/relationship…

    That’s because there is no threshold for experiencing happiness or abundance. You just have to believe that you are entitled to it. You must demand your abundance from the world and be fully committed to it. You must be willing to suffer an ego death and to sacrifice all of your self-limiting beliefs.

    The world will test you, but since you are a Living God the world must  eventually re-arrange itself to give you that abundance if you demand it.

    Well, the same goes for if you subconsciously believe it is your job to suffer for other people…

    And this is where my “Savior Complex” has severely limited me in a worldly sense. I didn’t letmyself have and do the things that I knew in my heart I wanted, because I was surrounded by people programmed to believe they must suffer and have their limitation validated by others (by me).

    Perhaps I am still mirroring your own experience. It is important to remember that you are entitled to whatever you desire. The people around you will actually appear to conspire against you when you align yourself with this belief/start demanding your abundance from the world.

    Don’t jynx anything by telling those other people what you plan to gain, just believe that you are entitled to it, as if your very existence depends on it.

    The people in your life who drain your energy, and believe that you should suffer with them may lack the Sentience and level of Consciousness that you possess, but that does not give them any right to hold you back from your Life’s Purpose. Your success will never cause the suffering of another person, so long as you are humble and doing it for your Self, and not just for your ego or to feel superior to others.

    —

    And what’s the point of feeling superior to others if they are nothing more than a programmed reflection of your Consciousness?

    Remember that Reality is a perfect reflection of your Consciousness, and Your Soul has already mapped out Your Life from beginning to end. It’s just a hyper-realistic experience, and everything/everyone else is a programmed reaction. Even your own thoughts/feelings/actions were mapped out by your Soul before this life began.

    If you are experiencing limitation because you are like me and developed a spiritual personality with a very subtle savior complex, it’s time to re-write that script, which you can do at any Moment.

    You don’t need to “save” anyone else, you need to take (back) control of your life, and unapologetically chase what will make your Heart happy.

    Believe me, if someone else really needed you to “save” them or suffer for/with them, there is already another reality where you have a Shadow self acting out “saving” that person. But you don’t need to worry about that reality, that’s just proof that you are an infinite spiritual Being.

    The rest of Your life, from this moment on, is Your choice. You don’t owe anyone else anything. This world answers to You and You alone. I might as well just be a virtual projection of Your Mind, that was temporarily created to remind you of this fact by writing this article.

    So here is your reminder…

    You don’t have to suffer or spend a certain amount of time sacrificing anything to experience what you desire. You don’t answer to the weaknesses or depravity of other people. You just need to believe that you are entitled to whatever it is that you desire.

    Just look at some of the people who have abundance, what do they have that you don’t have?? Nothing – many of them are completely un-Conscious – the opposite of You.

    Perhaps You have been paying the Karma of other people for far too long, and that is why you stumbled upon this article…

    Perhaps, now is the time to take back what has always been Yours.

    Let’s thank our savior complexes for what they’ve taught us, and respectfully ask that they find someone else to impose limitation on, in some other Reality, far far away, that isn’t this one…

    When I introduced my readers to the concept of becoming aware of Your Shadow, I made the assumption that most people spend the majority of their time rooted in the Present Moment.

    However, that was presumptive of me because no matter how Conscious we are, and no matter how much yoga or spiritual work we do, we still live in a society governed by Time.

    We’re still working 5 days a week, counting down the minutes until we can go home (or log off), counting down the days until the weekend, and counting down the months until vacation on a dizzying, never-ending loop.

    We are still entertaining ourselves with media that pulls our awareness into an artificial world – where ruminating about the past, and feeling dread about the future is the norm.

    So this article is going to dig a little deeper into getting to know your Self, so that you can become less distracted by the external world, and more deeply rooted in the elusive Present Moment – where the fun parts of spirituality, such as Enlightenment, begin.

    I am going to offer practical advice on making yourself a clear enough channel to root yourself in the Present Moment and work with Your Shadow in an applicable way, so that you may experience, first hand, what it means to be Enlightened – deeply connected to the Highest version of your Self

    So first thing’s first – How clear of a channel are you?

    Your Shadow is always going to have a slightly lower vibration and be slightly less conscious than you, with some exceptions, like when It shows you something important that you might have missed.

    So if you are going to be doing any sort of meta-level spiritual work, it starts with You, and you want to make sure that you are real with yourself, and not doing any spiritual bypassing.

    It’s important to know where you stand as far as the quality of your interactions with the external world, and your overall sense of well-being.

    How do you spend your free time?

    Do you zone out and watch TV, YouTube, or passively observe others/build a virtual identity on social media? Or are you making a conscious effort to have real life experiences? Like going to in-person events, connecting with friends, connecting with your Self, being creative, exercising outside in the Sun, etc etc?

    Even music can be used as a form of escapism, and it’s important to be mindful of the energetic quality of the music you listen to, as well as how much time you spend listening to music.

    For example, would quietly meditating and focusing on your breathing – letting your mind process your day-to-day challenges while driving – be more productive than listening to music? Or instead of listening to that new album, why not dust off that old piano of yours and write something new yourself?

    Not to say that you shouldn’t observe and appreciate what other people bring in to this world. But you, too, have creative abilities that you might not yet be aware of, or simply haven’t given enough thought/attention to.

    —

    You’ll also want to make sure that you are rooted in Reality far more than the virtual landscape. You might begin to notice that there are a lot of shady characters in the virtual landscape (social media).

    It’s easy for people who are barely more than strangers to you, who you met that one time awhile ago, to keep tabs on you, and remotely impose on your Energy Field with social media. Being mindful of the amount of energy and information you share with the world is important before doing any deep spiritual work.

    —

    Next – I mentioned that your shadow knows all of your secrets. It’s true. But do You know all of your secrets?

    Growing up I had a couple of habits and interests that I felt very ashamed of (that were not in alignment with my Soul and Life’s Purpose), so I tried to hide them from everyone else. I also had a tendency to hide them from my own Awareness. The devious part of me that enjoyed those questionable things would split my personality to avoid facing whatever behavior/habits I needed to overcome.

    “Well I know other people do this so why should I feel bad?”

    “Nobody will find out anyway, so who cares?” Etc etc

    It’s important for me to mention that nothing you do is really done in secret. Your Shadow has a tendency to reveal to other people the things that you do that are not in alignment with Your Soul. As soon as another person becomes aware, thanks to some “unlucky” coincidence that your Shadow manifested on your behalf, you are exposed and then forced to be real with yourself and address that issue.

    It’s also important to make sure that you are being real with yourself about the things we less openly discuss with other people – like dating, drug use, and what you do/look at when you think nobody is watching.

    You probably don’t have to become celibate to progress spiritually, but Soul ties (and Shadow ties) will most certainly occur with people you get intimate with, and that’s going to happen whether or not you tell yourself “Oh, no. It’s just casual so it doesn’t mean anything”.

    Do you really know that person you are getting intimate with? Do you know who they really are and what their secrets are?

    Because those things will most certainly have an energetic impact on you. Giving a significant amount of your Life Force Energy to another person, for a temporary experience, could alter the course of your life, as well as the potential timelines that you may or may not be able to explore in the future.

    Without judging yourself, it is advisable to make sure that your choices with dating are in alignment with who You, deep down, know you really are. That you are treating other people with (and being treated with) an acceptable level of common decency and respect, and not attempting to manipulate or use anyone in an underhanded way (and not letting other people use you).

    If you are getting involved with people for validation, or because you dislike them and want to control them, or to overcome some subconscious issue from your past – then being celibate, even for just a short time, and re-discovering your “baseline” might be helpful.

    If you are developing virtual relationships with people you don’t know in real life, or visiting websites that you wouldn’t tell your employer about – you must know that there is an extremely high energetic price that comes with these activities.

    Social media, virtual relationships, and frequenting questionable websites cause you to build a virtual identity that isn’t rooted in Reality – giving life to alter egos who operate under your awareness, and in a very insidious and energetically taxing way, which I will probably write a detailed article on at some point.

    —

    Drugs and alcohol tend to split the personality of the user, and make spiritual development very difficult. If you go out for a night of drinking, a different (temporarily more confident and euphoric) version of you surfaces that may not align with who you really are.

    Then over time you begin to develop surface personalities that fight for control – sober you vs. drunk you. If you are dealing with an actual addiction, that makes spiritual work very complicated. Because then right alongside You, every moment, is that alter ego of yours who is addicted to something, ready to barrel back into your Reality the moment that you show any sign of vulnerability.

    Do you really want that alter ego to potentially gain spiritual abilities alongside You? You would probably want to subdue that alter ego first, by overcoming your addiction (and getting professional help doing so if necessary).

    If you are consistently taking a substance to relieve emotional pain or to feel good (something not prescribed by an actual professional), you probably know deep down that there are uncomfortable emotions and memories that you are putting your Self off from facing.

    Even drugs that are “natural” and socially acceptable may be unhelpful if you are using them too consistently or in an unconscious way (Unconscious meaning – you wake up in the middle of the night to take them, you take them first thing in the morning, you take them every time you feel slightly disillusioned/uncomfortable, thus forgetting how it feels to be sober, etc etc).

    Your more insidious shadow selves will actually use weaknesses that you have with substance use and/or alcohol to “break through” whenever you become vulnerable enough. The most glaring and obvious example is becoming drunk, acting like someone you are not, and then blacking out (who do you think erased your memory?).

    Drugs that are not as hard as alcohol will much more slowly and subtly attempt to take control of your thoughts/actions, over an extended period of time. You might look back after a few months and realize your personality and habits have done a 180, and that could be just as energetically taxing as addressing an addiction to harder substances.

    —

    There are probably spiritual gurus who will give you meta-level advice and tell you that you can excel regardless of your habits and lifestyle.

    That’s partly true, but if you are highly dependent on substances, validation, or lack control over your behavior/emotions, then those spiritual gurus might be giving you advice that is helpful for your Shadow selves, but completely useless for you – the Person.

    You need to know the things that you do, and to see how they impact your well-being. You can make corrections as you go, and there is never a need for you to judge yourself for anything you are struggling to deal with. Awareness is the first step.

    We live in a sometimes strange world and many of us have deep and dark secrets. We tend to adopt habits (good and bad) from people we grew up with. It is what it is, and anything can be overcome if you go easy on yourself and become less willing to turn away from the parts of You that you are afraid or ashamed of.

    —

    Lastly, are you easy to provoke? Non-reaction is the best reaction. People have big egos and they are willing to fight to protect their egos. You benefit from becoming aware of the triggers that cause your sense of self (ego) to become inflated.

    You need to be willing to experience an ego death any time that serious conflict arises, by calmly becoming Conscious of – rather than reflecting back – someone else’s depravity. It doesn’t mean allowing people to walk all over you, it just means exercising control over how you choose to react.

    Controlling how you react is how you protect and empower your Consciousness – your Infinite Intelligence. That is how you become incorruptible

    —

    Emotions are meant to be felt, but they also need to be controlled. If you can act normal and not project any bad energy when family, friends, or strangers incite you, you are at a solid baseline and ready to work on the meta-details of shadow work. You are ready to become Enlightened.

    If you are still getting into arguments, or have trouble controlling your emotions, pay closer attention to how you rationalize projecting negativity or doing/saying things you regret later on.

    Let yourself feel the energetic consequences of those negative interactions. Don’t hide from shame or embarrassment – let yourself feel in to it and remember how uncomfortable it is, so that those mistakes don’t happen again. Your emotions exist to be acknowledged and appreciated for what they show you, not avoided.

    Conflict with other people may indicate that there is something within you that you need to address or pay closer attention to.

    Your frustration with other people is always valid, and so are the emotions that you feel, but you should also be able to recognize when your emotions become (or became) inflated thanks to your ego or an insidious Shadow identity you have yet to become aware of.

    —

    As you master the art of non-reaction and overcome what appears to be everyone else’s egoic urge to “get in to it” and argue with you, You may realize that, internally, you were irked pretty badly.

    But you will feel immense relief later on if you didn’t outwardly project negativity, or fight that other person back when the interaction took place, because it tends to be the case that most arguments and conflict are rooted in some sort of genuine misunderstanding.

    It is much more difficult to back track on slighting or attacking someone if you couldn’t contain your reaction. Because then you have to apologize, you have already hurt that other person, and it’s messy/takes more time/energy to process everything

    Still – go easy on yourself because this Conscious/Enlightened approach to dealing with conflict is literally the opposite of how mainstream society has taught us to act and deal with each other’s diverse personalities.

    —

    Try to recognize if there are toxic people in your life who cause you more harm than good. You have a choice over who you surround yourself with.

    If there is no way to remove yourself from certain toxic people (family, co workers, etc), then congratulations, they will be your best spiritual teachers. You will have no choice but to master the art of non-reaction.

    —

    What I have discussed in this article are the basics of becoming a person ready to manage the meta-aspects of your Human Program, to become Enlightened. This is where the fun parts of spirituality begin, and the time/discomfort/pain of getting to the correct baseline are absolutely worth it.

    Life becomes a lot more stable and enjoyable when you master the art of remaining calm, and owning up to the parts of your Self that you might have been afraid of, thanks to your old programming/conditioning.

    And don’t feel like you could possibly be falling short when you face those challenges, because we exist in a world where a lot of us keep secrets and expect way too much from other people.

    —

    Nobody can be inherently better or worse than anyone else. Even the definition of Enlightenment is malleable. We are all Enlightened in our own way no matter how Conscious we act, and no matter how much time we have focused on spirituality.

    You were dealt the hand that you were dealt when your life here began, and if you are facing a lot of challenges it is not because you are “less than” in any way – it is because your Living Soul knows how powerful, intelligent, and strong you are, and that You are ready to begin the process of reclaiming (remembering) your Power as a Human Being

    Overcoming the parts of you that you run or hide from will give you the greatest gift that you can ever give back to yourself. Better than any worldly possession, temporary feeling, or idea that you have of a perfect relationship or life situation.

    Remembering what you’ve forgotten. How perfect and suitable everything in this moment already is. Being able to be here, right now – is the ultimate freedom

    Reclaiming your right to simply exist, and fully accepting every part of who you are.

    That is how You become Enlightened.
