State of the World Follow-up

Since my last post I have discussed this issue with a few people. Although I still think the points made are valid there are some counter points that came up that as equally valid.

The biggest point that was made was that in order to facilitate change that made by things need to get bad. If my last post was correct that there was a large number of people that were lower energy then maybe something need to happen to change the world. The fact is that we have a very high population. Maybe at this point there is not enough higher developed souls to support that population. That would mean that in order for the Earth to progress spiritually that there would be a need to cut the worlds population drastically. Today's political and environmental state seems to be pushing us in that direction.

The other item that is interesting to ask is how many higher energy people does it take to effect change? Can a few dedicated spiritual peoples off set a large number of lower energy people.

My main issue was that many spiritual people believe that we are entering a time of good spiritual energy for the earth and that people will become more spiritual in this time. Today there appears to be more people who are not affiliated with an organized religion or are not devout followers. Is this the start of the change? There are more spiritual book and stores than ever before but is just servicing the few or is this a sign that the majority is changing.

If we are venturing into a new Spiritual age is the turmoil we are seeing now just a response to that change. Many people are resistant to change and will settle back into what is familiar. When their surroundings no longer make sense to them they tend to panic and strike out.

So is the world spiraling down or transitioning for the great climb ahead?
