Faith vs. Religion
Religion isn't the enemy. It’s a structure designed to guide us from one point to another, often leading to forms of enlightenment. As humanity collectively rises in consciousness, old systems, including traditional religious frameworks, are weakening. These systems were created during a time when order was essential for survival.
Judging religion, or those who practice it, is merely judging the path that others have chosen for their spiritual journey. Instead of judgment, we can choose to embrace love and trust that every individual will find their own path.
The enlightenment and awakening we are witnessing is humanity moving toward a true function of love. Each person is on a spectrum, progressing toward their own enlightenment.
The shift in collective consciousness is moving away from structured religion toward a state of simply being. Religion has historically provided a space for community, but now, people are beginning to step beyond the confines of those rules, discovering new ways to connect and exist together.
Judgment is natural for us as humans, but it takes courage to rise above those judgments. Life exists beyond our minds—outside the stories we create for ourselves. Learning to simply be, rather than constantly doing, is a profound shift.
We naturally categorize everything as right or wrong, yes or no, better or worse. It requires effort to drop these categories and just be.
By accepting and understanding our nature, we can begin to break free from it. Acknowledging that we assign meaning to every action allows us to redefine these meanings and choose how we live into them.
Release the need to control another person’s experience with religion. Show up as the light that you are, offering guidance through your presence. Others may choose to follow or reflect on your example, perhaps not today, but in their own time.
Love is boundless and limitless. It isn't confined to one person or one situation. Don’t waste your light on frustration or the need to control. Recognize emotions as part of the human experience, and then move on. Emotions are not you; they are simply experiences. Channel your energy into actions that inspire and uplift you.
And so it is.
