I don't know if this is a FACT, but IMHO as each individual wakes up his vibratory level is raised, and as more and more wake up and work on themselves then it must in some way affect the vibratory level of others, right? And we are all part of this earth and this density, so nothing you do goes without influencing each and every particle in existence. That's my hope, at least.
Yes something like that I think. As Percival wrote, its not where we are but 'who we are, and what we see' that counts.
One of the aspects of the mainstream's constant morbid fascination with bad news, is that for the control system it is very beneficial. It serves to keep a man's mind fixed firmly on everything else other than what matters or might help him. He does not look at himself, his life, how he acts, the reality of his own situation. Always, he can become absorbed by the lives and misfortunes of others. By the strange, the unjust, the perverse or whatever it is.
We slow down for a car crash or other accident, but fail to see the car crash that is right before our eyes everyday - our own machines. People usually think that accidents happen only very rarely, whereas in reality almost
everything is accidental. Now if we can take that perspective and hold it as we view the world, then perhaps that serves a valuable function in terms of anchoring the STO frequency - seeing reality
as it is? Objective observers that on some level have an effect or alter the balance of things, though how it might work I don't know.
One function of SOTT is to also serve as a balancing force for the lies and distortions served up by the mainstream. It can be painful to constantly force oneself to keep looking at the truth, but this does provide uncomfortable shocks needed to keep us awake and aware to the 'terror of the situation'. Also helps us to not get swept along with the crowd as they are herded together by the control system.
So this looking and seeing reality
as it is, is in fact something we can
do, is not a helpless act. Supporting others and networking, sharing impressions, lightens the load and keeps us on track. When it is too much, we feel the emotion and realise as Al said, that it will pass. I felt myself the last few days a little out of sorts, emotional, and for no real obvious reason. Today it seems to have lifted though, hope the clouds are parting with you too Al.
One other function of seeing reality as it is, should be to wake a person up to the
urgency of working on oneself, the wish not to die in bondage. Most people go through life without any thought to this, until finally death serves the function as a final 'shock', forcing a man to reevaluate the reality of his life from the brink of death and so lessons can be learned.
If we are to wake up, then we need to find the equivalent of such a 'final shock', perhaps the culmination of many small shocks? Seeing the situation as it is, forcing ourselves to keep looking and receive the shocks is part of working on oneself to this end. We learn to see the terror of the external world
as it is and of our inner world
as it is. Too much 'good news' just ain't gonna cut it, will not produce the emotional shocks required, and there is work to do.
