With activated Free Will, we become different from the animal kingdom/ When one has developed the thinking higher mind, we step out of the animal aspect of our being. We become human.
We self identify as human, as a server and as an intelligent human.
How do we do this?
We learn about ourseves. Most of us don’t know ourselves. We don’t know the self, our lower or higher self, our personality, our Soul, where we came form, what we are doing here, why we are here, what humanity really is or where we as a humanity are going? We are deeply blinded.
The study of astrology begins with the study of the self, which then creates self knowledge & then self direction. Which is a part of Free Will.
The study of astrology offers the tools of self discovery, a journey that is surprising & needed to progress forward into Free Will.
Note the two directions:
Humanity (the masses) is influenced from above downward (acts of God, no self determination, unconscious, lower mind focus, personality focus).
The intelligent self knowing self directed sovereign conscious person/seeker/disciple is directed from within, upward & outward.
Notice the two different levels of humans & the two different directions.
These last sentences are most important to comprehend.
And to identify with.
Are we informed or are we reactive?
Are we self directed or are we like a boat tossed by the waves, direction unknown?
In the first, we are able to make true intelligent choices.
The second, there is no true choice. There is only reactive emotional choices (automatic, no thought, no cognitive intelligent input).
This is our study today to ponder upon.
It continues below because the subject is so important.
And so…
Today is Friday…October 18, 2024.
Venus’s day. Ray 5 day – Concrete science & knowledge day.
Truth of the matter day.
Libra – the sign of choice – “Let choice be made.”
Real choice, intelligent choice has to do with free will.
Two Types – Unconscious & Conscious.
There is unconscious choice (emotional choosing, reactions).
This is from the reactive lower emotional mind (Kama Manas).
And there is conscious true choice (using the higher mind).
Humanity does not know about these things.
Nor does humanity understand Free Will.
What IS Free Will again?
Free will is given to humanity by the Hierarchy & by the Angels (Agnisvattas – Angels of Light). They gave humanity the Principle of the Mind, so humanity could use the mind for what is right).
Free Will is the INTELLIGENT KNOWLEDGEABLE use of the mental principle combined with the illumined will.
Free will is not activated when one is emotional or when the mind is not developed. Free Will is an activity of the higher mind. Where there is no ability to discriminate or discern, there is no free will. There is only REACTION (emotional), which is not free will. Because free will is an activity of the higher mind.
So for many in humanity, there is NO Free Will.
And that may be a very controversial & surprising statement of truth.
Many are helplessly lost in the emotional lower mind called Kama Manas, where one may be able to add 1 + 1 & may be able to write & may be able to read & may have a simple way of analysis….on these lower planes of the emotional mental one does not have free will & is helplessly caught up in emotions & reactions.
And here is another…
Karma & responsibility are woven & interwoven in the subject of Free Will. Karma & our experiences in daily life are woven & interwoven. We don’t now much about karma either. That is for another day. love, Risa
Countdown!
Oh yes! How many days left to the Vote?
18 days ’til the election.
Where each of us are informed & make an informed
discerning non emotional, non reactive, discriminating
intelligent choice?
Libra is where we make our choices before entering the
decisive sign of Scorpio – sign of Discipleship, being called to Discipleship.
We use our Ray 3 mind of Divine intelligence to study, research & make our minds knowledgeable before the vote. So we can vote with Free Will.
Right Choice made when we align with the Will to Good.
Will is Ray 1…Libra is Ray 3 – the Will to make ourselves like the MInd of God, deeply intelligent, surrounded by love.
Free Will is given to humanity – however it comes with the responsibility to develop (into) that Free Will – then we are able to make true choices in all areas of our lives.
To have free will we have to have an informed intelligence Thinking mind that is knowledgable, learned, focused & active.
We don’t have free will when we choose from an emotional point of view. That is not fee will. This is an emotional reaction.
Free will is an action of the Higher Mind Principle, under the Light of the Soul.
Given free will we have the responsibility to learn about things, gain knowledge, seek the truth of all that matters, develop intelligence – then, be able to discuss, dialogue, listen, respond (not react) and to continually learn in order to develop discernment & discrimination.
This is the Right Use of the Mind.
Building the mind (there are 7 levels to the mind – 4 lower mind, 3 higher mind sublevels. True Free Will happens when we are focused in the higher mind (where the Soul resides). Under the Light of the Soul one bcomes a true Thinker (the task of our present humanity). Only after one becomes a true Thinker, can one truly choose.
Right Choice is made when we align with the Will to Good. Humanity cannot choose without true knowledge. Humanity choosing via resistance & from the emotional state of things, is not true choice.
The dark forces maniuplate the free will of humanity.
This is against evolution.
St. Germaine came to the Americas to implement brotherhood & free will – deciding, making right choice that help humanity choose.
Independence is a high quality of free will.
Independence & free will –
Fraternity on the flag of Venezuela is a thread of Master St. Germaine’s influence.
The development into the future of humanity –
Any manipulation (power over, will over another) is part of the dark forces, the lower mental o fhumanity, a shadow that must be recognized & overcome.
Earth is the planet of suffering – from which we slowly climb out of. This is due to Earth being the most dense. Due to this many great Beings from the solar system chose to be here on earth, to assist humanity. Earth is a planet of duality – light & dark, good & not good, Spirit & matter. It is through the interaction of the two sides, the tension results and from the tension we come to At-tension (attention). The attention is upon first the polarization, then the attention turns to how to harmonize the two sides.
Free Will means we need to act under the Rule of Law.
Then we are free.
There is a lower understanding of free will.
This is not free will. It’s a perversion.
We were given the mind to discern what is right & what is wrong, then choose, then we can have self rule. We are to become self ruled, following the inner rule of the Soul. Then we are independent.
Otherwise we are a child having a tantrum.
In the context of Ray 7 – self rule, being sovereign.
We need the understanding coming from the Light of the Soul. There are Rules of the Soul.
IN many countries, there are people o fGoodwill & Disciples working. They have Right Understanding. Above them who hold the top gov posisionts are the power mongers, who suppress the people. Disciples are not yet in roles of power because the people don’t yet have the ability to know what to choose.
Intellectuals are stuck in the lower mind w/ concrete thinking. They do not have intuition or understanding of what the Soul wants to tell them. The connection to the Soul is blocked. The simple plain people are often more sensitive, have the Goodwill. But they don’t have the will & communication skills to be leaders.
Many are aspirants, not yet ready to be leaders.
The sufferings we see in our country is the burning ground. From this burning ground, humanity learns how to climb the ladder of greater & greater knowledge & abilities to eventually become leaders.
Free Will is Ray 1. To use the Free Will given to us skillfully/spiritually (in its true sense), we need to align with the Will to Good (Ray 1 & Ray 2).
Free Will aligning w/ Ray 2 of Love/Wisdom.
Then Ray 3 of Right Action – the skillful action of free will comes forth. Then we are skillful.
The learning of skills is what humanity needs.
The skills of the Disciple.
The Tibetan teaching his students in the ’30s/’40s. The disciples were learning, being trained in collaboration. The results were the 10 Seed Groups – fields & projects where people people could participate in ways that develop humanity’s spiritual essence.
Free Will – one has to train the self, take over the discipline, work on the self, learn about the self, understanding the family is the first training ground.
In the Kali Yuga there is great ignorance. In the Kali Yuga there is so much darkness, so much suffering, so much sex drugs rock & roll & money – the rules & are manipulated & there is a flood of untruths & this keeps the people in dependency & in ignorance.
What is to be done?
Humanity and the children need the new education of the new Aquarian Age. That is the purpose of our FB page/group, college, Ashram here.
Love, Risa
Note the graphic below.
The 7 planes (on the Constution of Man/Geogrphy of the planes humanity lives in).
Looking closely at the graphic –
1. find the lower mind,
2.then the Manasic (this is higher mind,
3. then the buddhic/Soul level.
To have Free Will we need to have climbed the ladder from the physical/etheric, astral/emotional, lower mental & enter into the Manasic (higher mind, abstract mind) & then enter into the Buddhic Soul plane.
How do we climb this ladder? By study, which builds the mind rung & rung. Astrology activates & uplifts the lower mind to the higher mind, as Astrology is the study that begins with self knowledge, the knowledge of self which then become knowledge of one’s Soul & one’s purpose.
With the study of astrology then all other disciplines begin to make sense to us. These last statements are also controversial. However, they are what our school & college & Ashram are based on. love, Risa D’Angeles
