Since over eight thousand years ago, one of the first widely and officially recognized religions on Earth appeared. Its original name is “Sanatana Dharma” which, in the ancient Sanskrit language, means “The Eternal Truth” or “The Eternal Principle”. However, its official name is Hinduism. Unlike many other ancient religions which have fallen into disuse, this religion remains one of the most widespread religions today. Currently, it has almost a billion followers worldwide mostly spread in the Far East and especially in India. However, due to the overshadowing by monotheistic religions, many believe that Hinduism isn’t a practical path because of the huge number of divine deities prevailing in its many scriptures. Among these deities, we can name the most famous gods Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma and the avatars Rama and Krishna. In this article, we seek to delve deeper into the simplicity of this complex, yet beautiful religion.

According to Hindu scriptures, divinity is in everything. There is no such thing as divine and not-divine since everything is the divine and the divine is everything. This is the basic tenet upon which the Hindu path is carved: once spiritual seekers break through the prevalent veil of duality and realize oneness with the divine, these seekers become enlightened and help in guiding others along the way. However, there is no single path towards this enlightened state; each seeker has his own destiny and his own way towards enlightenment and liberation, which is the ultimate release from human sorrow and suffering through embracing the divine in everything. Since Hinduism embraces all paths as roads to the divine, no one is required to change his religion. Moreover, it is highly discouraged and even proclaimed unrighteous for someone to turn his back to the faith he was born to. It is encouraged that, no matter what religion the seeker is born to, he should look in it to find the eternal truth he was born to find.

Resisting change is something all people do in a variety of ways. Some keep themselves in old and broken relationships because they don’t want them to end; others keep broken things in their closets in the hopes of repairing them later; others stay in their old jobs in fear of not finding any better; and others keep their old habits in fear of changing themselves beyond recognition.

However, a routine cleanup of our environment is necessary in order to move on and evolve. It’s definitely not an easy task, but it’s nevertheless necessary. Some of the things we need to reexamine and allow to take their natural course can be habits we no longer like, people we no longer click with, and things we don’t need anymore.

First, it’s not very easy to get rid of old habits, but it’s not impossible. As the saying goes, “old habits die hard,” but if we look at how a habit was formed, we can un-form it. Sometimes, these habits were born of a necessity which is no longer valid; however, because they had been practiced for a long time, they have become difficult to change. The only way to break these habits is by creating new ones and following the 21-day-rule. In brief, the 21-day-rule says that if you do something for 21 days in a row, it becomes a habit. So, to break a habit, practice a more useful one and allow the older one to die out.

Second, getting rid of people may sound a bit harsh, but it’s also necessary. Just like habits, we also get used to people. However, if we truly love them, we may sometimes have to let them go or even force them to. This is especially the case when the relationship with them is bringing misfortune to one or both of the participants. Yes, it may be difficult and it may create bad feelings between the people involved, however, it’s always better to set people free even against their will if we believe that it will make them and us happy in the long run. We also need to make sure that we don’t get too attached to certain people either, especially when our attachment to them is keeping them from evolving and growing.

Third, getting rid of things is the easiest of the lot. Just look around your house and evaluate each item individually. If you haven’t used it in the past year and the chances of using it in the future are very low, either throw it or sell it. By starting with this, you put yourself in the mood of eliminating the extra clutter from your life to allow newer and better things to replace them.

In the end, when you are ready to reshape your life, before starting to learn and change things, look at what needs to be thrown out first. To put yourself in this mood, start by throwing things you don’t need, then look around you at the people you don’t need, and finally reshape your personality through eliminating old habits and creating newer and better ones. Think of yourself like a tree: old branches must be clipped every now and then in order to allow newer and healthier ones to grow.

End my life, burn my desire

There is no use in living again

When the last pursuit ended in vain

Should I put you through my head

As I lay on my deathbed

Or shall I send you through my heart

Already dead and torn apart

I thought this time it would change

And that destiny would rearrange

I thought that this was the love I awaited

Yet again, it got deflated

My dear bullet, my last hope

End it all so I can cope

Bring me the peace so I can rest

End this mockery which I detest

I want to cry, I wish I could

To ease the pain that I withstood

But nothing will change, there is no use

Romance is none but the heart’s abuse

When you love with all your being

And ignore the omens you are seeing

A bullet is your only cure

To end the torture you endure

Once a person rises above the worldly burden of social and religious dogma and goes deeper into the world of spirituality, he will undoubtedly begin to see the world in parallels. In fact, the relationship between the natural and the spiritual worlds has been documented through the millenia such as in the Emerald Tablets which state, “that which is above is from that which is below, and that which is below is from that which is above”. 

Not only does the physical world reflect the spiritual world and vice versa, but each of the worlds reflects itself infinitely. The best example of this is by comparing an atom to the solar system. Another example is when the history of an empire or a dynasty is compared to a person’s life. Truly, the universe is like a hall of mirrors; and if we start looking at it that way, an interesting idea begins to emerge: what if there is no actual difference between the physical and the spiritual worlds? What if, like the atom and the solar system, they are both part of the same thing?

By seeing things in this new light, one starts seeing that a person’s life also reflects that of the universe. Before the moment of conception, a person is nothing, which is pure energy. Upon conception, this energy manifests itself in a single cell which quickly starts to duplicate itself even after the moment of birth. At that time, upon observing the baby medically, one can see the quick pace of development and energy. Moreover, during childhood, we can also see that a chlid’s consciousness is also emerging and developing. As time passess, this energy begins to decrease as consciousness begins to increase. When energy and consciousness are at almost equal proportions, a human seeks to procreate, thereby creating other new humans. Afterwards, with life experiences and time, consciousness continues to expand and energy dwindles progressively until the moment of death. 

On the other hand, we can see that the universe is following almost the same path. It started off as a single point which exploded and expanded rapidly at first, and then continued to expand but at a slower and slower rate. Moreover, if we are to define the universe’s consciousness as the sum total of the consciousness of the living beings on it, we can also see how this consciousness increased while the energy decreased. Life started off with micro-organisms which are barely conscious, then developed to plans, then animals with more consciousness followed by more and more conscious animals until humanity appeared. At first, humanity was more about hunting and full fledged wars between tribes and nations. Eventually, these full on wars subsided and were replaced by longer and harder economic and intellectual cold wars. So, the energy of life on planet Earth is now dwindling while consciousness is rising. So we can see now that Earth is close to the turning point of procreation; and true enough, we are now seeking to start new life on other planets. 

This is only one application of the eternal reflection of the worlds. With more observation, one can quickly draw more and more comparisons. This perspective not only allows a person to see the world differently, but it also allows one to make more and more accurate predictions based on the natural/spiritual course of things.

I’ve traveled endless places

I’ve been stabbed by countless knives

And flew through endless spaces

I’ve lived as a poor beggar

And died as a wealthy king

I’ve had rooms full of sugar

And sirens which could sing

I’ve had many daughters and sons

And raised many dogs and cats

I was with priests and was with nuns

And I wore various hats

I circled the world three times over

And I saw wonders which have perished

I found the four leafed clover

And memories I have cherished

But all my travels and all my quests

Are all meaningless and so untrue

Nothing is better and nothing bests

When I tell you I love you

There are two kinds of people…

How many times have you heard that one before?

No really!

A person’s truth shines only after he’s been through hardships. One of the most important gods in the Hindu religion is Lord Shiva who is both the god of wisdom and the god of destruction. And when we delve deeper into why these two seemingly opposing concepts are merged in one god, we discover a very important truth: without destroying the old ego, new wisdom cannot be developed. As discussed in an earlier post here, one of the most important marks of wisdom is humility. As long as a person is arrogant, he cannot be truly wise.

This brings us back to chocolate. Assuming that good people are like chocolate, when it’s placed in the sun or on fire, chocolate only becomes softer and just as tasty (hot chocolate anyone?). Good people are like that: hardships only make them wiser and better human beings. On the other hand, many people who are already bitter end up hardening and becoming even more negative after going through hardships, just like clay.

In the end, most of us will go through hardships in our lives; we don’t have a choice in that. However, we do have a choice whether we will be chocolate or whether we’ll be clay.

Of many people everywhere

To others it’s a plea

Through which they escape despair

Death is a part of life

Surrounded by pain and strife

But in fact is the salvation

From the clutch of desperation

It is change that we truly fear

To lose the life we hold so dear

Even if this life is hard

We rarely seem to use this card

For we fear what’s behind

The veil of darkness unperturbed

We don’t know what we’ll find

Behind the darkness undisturbed

But there is really nothing scary

And we don’t have to be wary

For after death there are new dreams

In a life more supreme

Death is a great gift

A chance to start again

Our energies to lift

And more of life to obtain

Death and life are not opposites

They are two consecutive roads

Just like peaks and pits

They are tied in strong nodes

Death is the final kiss

After our life we miss

It is a chance to restore

And a new life explore

The existence of angels in the world is very important, for they tackle community problems before they become world issues. However, these small world imbalances may not always be solved by the angels, or they may be too big for them. When elemental imbalances become too much to handle they evolve into catastrophic proportions of order versus chaos. In these instances, the solution is out of the angels’ hands and into the avatars’.

Avatars come in many shapes, sizes and configurations. While some religions believe that an avatar is one person who is the incarnation of a god, Allpatheism believes that an avatar isn’t always just one person. Sometimes, avatars are groups or coalitions of angels working together to restore balance to the world. Usually, only one of the angels in this group becomes famous; however, upon further studying the biography and works of this individual, it becomes clear that they wouldn’t have reached far on their own without the support of a select group of angels around them.

Most avatars that we know of such as Krishna, Rama, Buddha, Jesus, and many others never worked alone; they were always surrounded by disciples who believed in their teachings and worked for their cause. Without the support of the disciples (who are actually angels coming together), the perceived avatar wouldn’t have been able to get too far. Therefore, the avatar is actually the group and not the individual.

This would make more sense on a spiritual level since angels have higher balanced levels of energies from all four gods. Once they come together, these energies amplify beyond the sum total of each angel’s energy, and with enough of it concentrated in a single place, change happens.

No one knows when avatars come; moreover, the world as we know it now is becoming bigger on some fronts and smaller on others. Our consciousness is expanding beyond our solar system while our connection with those around us is becoming faster. Technology is reshaping our world and our very configuration, and archaic religions are becoming obsolete as they reflect the spiritual, physical and emotional needs of an age that is quickly vanishing. It is now evident that the next avatar will have a wider reach and a faster connection with people. With today’s technology, the avatar group of angels will be bigger and more powerful than ever before, and it will perform feats similar to the gods’ because of the concentration and the amplification of the energies of all these angels.

The advent of the avatar is preceeded by many signs; however, the most important one of all is general unrest in the world. With agents of order and agents of chaos having reached high places in the world, the pendulum is quickly swinging between extreme order and extreme chaos every day. The angels are doing everything they can to restabilise the world, but it’s becoming more and more difficult. Eventually, they will come together as the next avatar.

Amazed and surprised the oracles

None expected that our reality

Would be more of a mentality

All these experiments defy the real

Or what we believe that we feel

But in truth it helps reveal

That the quantum is the ideal

The world is made of energy

Warped in a wonderful synergy

Being at the base of all

From the wind to the wall

And yet the observer is the key

Observing changes what we see

Reality is altered by this act

And nothing is anymore exact

Allpatheists know that, while the purpose of life is its enjoyment, each Allpatheist has a sacred duty to locate angels within their communities and lend them any assistance possible. In addition to this, Allpatheists know that the capacity to help the angel they find will never ask them to go beyond their personal capabilities. They should never severely inconvenience themselves just to assist the angels, for that goes against the trend of the universe. As an Allpatheist, you need to know full well that whatever the angels need on their missions is well within your power; otherwise, you may call upon the aid of others – Allpatheists or not – within your network who may be able to offer that aid. In all cases, Allpatheists will never use force or guile in order to help angels, for these actions will incur more karma than they resolve. Allpatheists always act with honesty and a light touch.

In order to locate angels, Allpatheists simply live their normal lives within the communities where they find themselves. While doing that, Allpatheists – just like other people – may meet new people every day. When the Allpatheist’s skills match the needs of an angel, the universe will make them cross paths. As humans, Allpatheists are prone to make mistakes and may misidentify angels, but if the four angelic signs are located, the chances of incorrect identification are diminished. The four angelic signs are, as with everything else, connected to the four elements, and they are the following:

1- The first sign that you are in the presence of an angel is usually an unexplainable attraction to a candidate-angel’s character, along with an inner drive to be a part of whatever they are doing.

2- After inquiring further into the candidate-angel’s mission, the Allpatheist will be able to identify at least one way in which he can assist without having to go out of his way too much or inconveniencing himself and his family.

3- The candidate-angel will already have taken practical and observable steps in working on his mission. The mission should not just be a rough draft but an actual work in progress.

4- While having enough knowledge about his mission, the angel will also have humility and a sense of innocence around them. This is called the Mark of Wisdom.

Once Allpatheists have been able to identify and observe these four signs clearly in a candidate-angel, then this person is almost surely an angel, and it is the Allpatheist’s duty to lend whatever assistance is possible. This assistance may take many forms including supplying missing knowlege, using the Allpatheist’s skills in accomplishing the angel’s goals, drawing upon the Allpatheist network for assistance, and introducing the angel to people who may be able to help whether they are Allpatheists or not. Each angel’s mission is different and may call upon more than what is listed above; however, one rule remains standing: the Allpatheist shall never severely inconvenience himself for the angel’s mission.

While assisting in an angel’s mission, Allpatheists need to always be aware of their egos and never get too involved in the angel’s mission; otherwise, it may become corrupted and cease to be the angel’s mission. An Allpatheist is there as a mentor or an advisor but never as a leader, for that is the angel’s job.

In the end, while working with angels, Allpatheists will never try to recruit the angels to Allpatheism; however, when angels do ask why they are getting this assistance for free, Allpatheists can explain what our path is. Afterwards, if an angel would like to become an Allpatheist, they are welcome but never forced.
