What Is Peace? Excerpt from the Friends of the Heart Facebook Group


Each day, Katie Davis meets with Heart Friends worldwide and other wisdom people in the Friends of the Heart Facebook Group to share and contemplate the awakening, Self-inquiry, enlightenment and Self-realization.

Below are two excerpts from the group's Discussion Board that Heart Friend, Sam White, published on his Profile Notes Tab. On the Discussion Board, these excerpts are in the Topic "What Is Peace?" if you would like to enjoy all 28 posts for this topic.

SAM WHITE:

PEACE by Sam, answered by Katie Davis
Yesterday at 2:39pm

Peace will happen.
It may take a while for it to be Earth-wide. . .

Peace depends on Awareness, no matter HOW it is looked at, . . . . A raised level of Awareness if you like. . . Where taking responsibility for the relationship to Truth happens constantly in every moment with and thru, one’s sense of Self; that can and does happen as a prime foundation-stone to any aspect of Peace.

From where the process of Peace is, right NOW, in the World of Man, stems from a lack of education, or a lack of Awareness, primarily in the individual Awareness, that feeds into and becomes One with the collective Awareness.

In the coming to Awareness that we are not our beliefs held as inherit ancestral story of hate and war passed from generation to generation, we take responsibility for the connection to our own beliefs, and Realise we are a ‘we’, with NO difference between the (so-called) ‘us’ and ‘them’.

The experience that we are ONE PEOPLE, One Awareness, One body, One Entity, . . . we can view thru our sometimes seemingly individual pair of eyes, which IS only part of the collective eye of Awareness that IS the (so-called) One-ness experiencable in this Awareness of Earth’s reality.

Allowing the Awareness of Love dancing at your feet to be Realised we are One Love, . . . is purely allowing knowledge of Awareness to be available and relevant to those with guns pouring blood as death and injury upon the Earth.

How to facilitate the flow of Knowledge to those most in need of this Awareness, that can and would facilitate Peace is not (seemingly) in my power to facilitate.

Maybe Peace is not what this Earth reality is about. . . But only an impulse for some who incarnate here to use as a starting point for evolving Awareness beyond what appears to BE.

To plainly accept war as what it is. . . and to not mix it up with Peace, . . . is to come to Peace itself.

The only gun you hear in Australia is the occasional car back-firing, which is rare. So for me to talk about war is like talking about swimming and never ever seeing water.

Hello Sam ~

Thank you for sharing this. You write with great clarity and wisdom. Also amazing about no guns in Australia. Seems it would surely offer more sanity!

Pure Awareness is the whole and complete Absolute Reality that never changes, whereas consciousness is either pure or altered (yet never loses its essential purity). The greater awakening that is occurring on the planet is that the altered state is dissolving.

In the beginning, some take this awakening as personal. The truth of the matter is that consciousness is disidentifying with form. This is an extraordinary time! Form is still appearing of course as its tremendous power, but consciousness is no longer getting lost in its form.

When it is free of its altered states, it is unconditional love and the perfect peace of pure consciousness that is not only "our" transformation, but as the collective, the transformation of the world.

Pure consciousness is not changing ... the altered (false) states are "burning."

Yes ... just as you say ... peace will inevitably happen, unless the divided mind with its ever increasing power of technology does not destroy humanity first.

A historian could chart the time periods when civilizations were eliminated. Were they destroyed because they were threatening the living earth?

Native cultures consider themselves stewards of the earth. Contemporary cultures act as though the earth and its resources belong to them, which is just the opposite. If humanity threatens the earth, will humans be exterminated? :)

But you see, even then we have perfect peace, just no form.

The concept of evolution, I will leave to the scientists. As the altered states dissolve, will that mean changes in the DNA, etc. of the body? I am in two national research studies now designed for the medical community (guinea pig, I guess, just answer questions). One group has as the lead, a scientist that is also awake. There are also physicians encountering their own awakening and trying to get their professional community to listen, so at last perhaps there is true curiosity.

If the scientist is not awake, they are observing from the altered state ... therefore the observation will accordingly be altered.

What effect will That which is truly watching have on Itself??

Would that truly be evolution? Many scientists say so ... no certainty here. From the standpoint of the physician and their testing ... maybe. Or will the realized Total Being just not require the medical community when it is free of its altered states? THAT would surely end the studies quickly! :)

Evolution is something that occurs within form. Isn't it? Well, if we are wearing dark glasses and see the world in a certain way and then take off the dark glasses and see it a different way, would we refer to that as evolution?

So could we say that consciousness is evolving, as many well known speakers/teachers are saying? Is dissolving the altered into what it has forever been considered evolution? Pure consciousness has never changed.

Is the analyzing and interpreting mind a good tool or a distraction and postponement?

All future ...

Being now ... wait and see ...

In the meantime, no matter what the discussion ... whether altered states, living earth, human vs. earth, evolution, scientists, physicians, DNA, the Total Being or whatever, it is "time" to keenly focus on the essential question, who is "I" and Self-realization.

If time runs out, does that mean that it is the end of times such as in the book of Revelations? Or does it just mean the end of time ... NOW.

Questions, doubt, complexity and uncertainty always point to mind. Sometimes fun and fascinating though as play. After all, the possibilities are infinite!

That said, not knowing now is such simplicity.

All Love ~ Kate
