The question could emerge in many of us, whether the spiritual Ego is a supporter or an obstructor of the spiritual development. Can it meddle in the process of spiritual development, and if yes, then how does it do it? According to us, the spiritual Ego can interfere with innumerable tricks in the life of the spiritual seeker. These spiritual tricks are manifested in various spiritual mind games. Some of the most important ones are discussed below.

1. The Self-Developing Mind Game

The Spiritual Ego says: “Look for truth! Develop your personality to make it the most sophisticated possible! Be spiritual!”

The Ego-dominated mind keeps coming up with new and new programmes: “Do this! Do that! Then all your problems will be solved.” You try to obey, but in the meanwhile you are wasting your entire life.

A dear friend gifted me with a sweatshirt that said, “GMO OMG WTF Are We Eating?” I can’t tell you how much I really appreciated that thoughtful gift. I even wore it to the screening of a film about GMOs where I was a member of the panel discussion afterward. Almost everyone who saw the message gave a thumb’s up! However, once or twice I saw a different finger response, so I asked if they didn’t like the sweatshirt. Oh no, the sweatshirt was fine; they didn’t like being forced to eat foods not knowing which edibles had GMO ingredients since there is no mandatory labeling of GMOs in the USA.

Hopefully, this guide can make that easier and, certainly, more reliable. I’ve pulled together as comprehensive a guide as possible from various online sources to take into consideration as many relevant aspects and angles of the Non-GMO / GMO conundrum.

When you surrender, you surrender into a flow of unconditional love. This unconditional love supports you in all you do, and allows you to find what we call the sweet spot – those right time, right place moments of magic that are for the highest good of all. You are love, Dear Ones. By surrendering into the love that is your source, you immerse yourself in your truth, your beingness, your true glory, and will shine magnificently from there. ~Archangel Gabriel

I don’t know how any of you feel about our current time or how you want to contribute to this massive social/spiritual revolution, but personally, my goals are simple. I want to use creativity – writing, music and anything else that seems to provide a path into a higher consciousness – to help the world.

I want to give my perspective on the various important issues that are emerging in our society today, and I want to use the awesome power of spirit and what some people call the ‘higher self’ (though I don’t like to label it) to offer something that can hopefully help everyone.

I used to be interested in promoting certain beliefs, but these days, I just want to promote whatever helps me expand my consciousness and awareness. And I want to be able to do it with minimal judgment and condemnation toward others who don’t think the same way I do.

I think it’s healthy to be constructively critical of ideas or philosophies that don’t resonate with us, but what matters, in my view, is the level of respect we show their proponents, who are human beings (and spiritual beings) just like us.

Every challenging decision you have to make is a culmination of your life experiences. You can continue to let your past affect your decisions or forge a new future for yourself. Free will is always yours. ~ Creator
