Is the Earth flat?
QUESTION: Masters we are living in times when there is so much disinformation around us that it seems to be hard for many people to separate fact from fiction. I have met many people who seriously believe that Earth is flat. Is it flat? I personally believe that Mother Earth is a round one. Why is this flat earth – theory spreading wildly at these times and what is the spiritual purpose for this wild theory? ~Galathea, Finland
ANSWER: No, the world, in the illusion of most of those living at this time, is a mis-shaped sphere. This majority tends to accept this description because it has been photographed so many times from space.
We say “the illusion” because everything is energy and energy is everything – including the bodies all the souls have chosen to wear. Since each soul creates its own reality, the many possibilities for solidly recognized and shared objects is as plentiful as there are people alive.
What a person believes is based upon the beliefs which they accept as factual. This is true concerning the composition of Earth’s physical objects, as well as the philosophical and religious thinking and historical facts, including creation and evolution theories.
It is a practice among people who are thoroughly entrenched in the ego judgment of society, where negativity rules, to want someone to tell them what they should believe. They don’t want the responsibility of having to make decisions for themselves. This allows the conspiracy theorists and the flatlanders to have a ready supply of humans to convince that what they are saying is true.
Some of these “know-it-alls” spread their crazy ideas to see how many people they can get to believe them. Some even have contests with other conspirators to see how many people they can get on board with their pronouncements. When it comes to philosophies and religious beliefs, they will form groups or churches and live off the contributions of their adherents.
Some other commonly touted, current, non-supported theories are that the WWII Holocaust never happened; man did not set foot on the moon; a single evil cabal controls the world’s finances; various government officials from many countries are actually aliens. There are many more.
The spiritual purpose of everything a human faces has to do with honoring their own journey, taking responsibility for the decisions that allow them to finish their lessons, and moving away from any form of judgment while entering into unconditional love and evaluation of all that surrounds them.
