The Ego Triumphs in the Overhand!

Standard

People go their own way; everyone is preoccupied with their own interests, such as gaining more followers, likes, and positive feedback, to create beautiful moments, days, and a life. The media dominates the world, but not in a positive way; rather, it strokes the ego. It is not just here or there; it is everywhere. As I observe it on Facebook, WordPress, or even on X (formerly Twitter), I notice how the people in Iran are suffering, while those Iranians abroad raise their mottos and banners.

Marie-Louise von Franz pointed out these words in those days, when there was no media at all, which I believe we can easily adapt to a modern context today.

People are struggling all around the world, particularly children. The question is, is there any hope?

There’s nothing left to say… and waiting is the hardest part!

    • Oh, yes, dear Resa. That is what must occur, though I remain convinced that the US and the Islamic regime are in secret contact; uranium was taken away prior to the attack!!
      Sending immense hugs.

      • My dear Resa, I refer to the strange procedure; the Americans launched a sudden attack on the nuclear facilities of the Islamic regime, but it seems they were alarmed! As we saw yesterday, the regime fired missiles towards the American air base in Qatar, but it had already been evacuated. Doesn’t it resemble a game? Did you get my point?
        Sending more hugs! 😉🥰💖💖

  9. It seems as if the world doesn’t give a damn either, Aladin. I don’t understand this kill or be killed, ultimate power at all costs mentality. We in the U.S. who still have the ability to think for ourselves believe that the current administration has gone completely off the rails, like a 2-yr.-old throwing a temper tantrum, and so far, we have not been able to stop this runaway train despite a kajillion legal battles. I don’t know how it’s going to turn out, but I’ve been turning within to see what my part in it is contributing. The Kabbalah says that even if you have meditated and done all the Soul work, if you have a little piece of envy or jealousy or greed in your heart you will still see that out in the world and are, in fact, contributing to it. Jesus says the same thing in a different way. Well, you see how hard it will be to eradicate all those negative feelings from everyone on the planet when all our Egos are in charge of our emotions, but still we keep trying.

    Weirdly, friends who are into astrology have told me that this moment in history was predicted long ago and the world now has the opportunity to choose light and love over all the trappings of the ego. I am trying to keep my intentions on light and love, despite how difficult it is with all the crazy going on. I know that doesn’t help change the current situation immediately, but what they were saying at the “No Kings” rallies all over the country was that we only need 3.5% of the population to be in agreement in order to usher in the change. I’m hanging on to that like it’s God’s word. There has to be at least that many of us that want a different world, eh? xoxox

    • Oh, my lovely Pam, you have expressed everything from my troubled heart; thank you! I also heard about some predictions many years ago. I recall my brother Al told me about some similar ones. However, that “Being King” is hopefully just a dream, and we must only believe in light and love; they are strong enough to conquer the evil in man.
      By the way, aside from that, I have some ideas running through my head for the next video.
      Sending much love and light.

      🙏🙏💖💖🥰🥰😘😘

  10. My heart is breaking along with yours, Aladin. This utter wasteland grows, exhausting and disenchanting, and the world’s solution seems to be more weapons, more war, more lies, and more death. All while compassion, a true solution that costs nothing but courage, sits abandoned at the roadside.
