She lives her life like a flame; a dance of purposeful chaos… Her enchanting light can guide you and quell your fears… She’s hot; warming those who respect her and burning those who don’t… She is a flame with an unforgettable glow… A weak man will try to dim her luminance… but her soul mate will take pleasure in fanning the blaze.
– Steve Mariboli, international speaker
Forgotten Wisdom from the ancients is the understanding of how we once lived and what we once were. Let’s look at the Vedic/Hindu system for measuring time in cycles.
Humanity began with the Golden Age – the Satya Yuga. An age of perfection, where humans lived for up to 100,000 years and we lived in complete peace, and perfect harmony and balance with the natural environment, with no war, famine or conflict between the races and even animals. They were giants, and had powers of telepaths and teleportation.
In the second phase or Treta Yuga, also known as the Silver Age, religion, casteism and language were introduced which began to divide humans into men and demigods. The human race was hijacked by an alien force and had their powers reduced, so as to serve the aliens. The longevity of human life span was reduced to 10,000 years and their heights decreased. But still, an overall time of prosperity and peace.
Then the Dvapara Yuga, the Bronze Age where wars began to break out and Mother Earth became overburdened by corrupt leaders, orchestrated by the aliens who ruled humanity. There was wanton selfishness and blind violence. Legend has it that Mother Earth assumed the form of a helpless cow and approached Brahma, the universal creator, to intervene on her behalf for the future of the human race (perhaps the reason why the cow is sacred in the Hindu religion). So Krishna was sent to destroy the wicked and restore virtue and the essence of his speech to Arjuna was what gave birth to the Bhagavad Gita. Human lifespan was 1,000 years then.
When Krishna departed, darkness engulfed the Earth and Kali Yuga descended on us. The epoch of end times, the Iron Age, where spirituality and morality are diminished. Deception and hypocrisy in the name of religion is the status quo. Kali Yuga is the polar opposite of Satya Yuga – the world is virtually devoid of peace. All living beings suffer material hardships as they struggle simply to survive, being deeply afflicted by fear. In Kali Yuga, the vastly weakened, brainwashed human who knows not his worth lives up to only 100 years. They are quarrelsome, lazy, misguided, unlucky and, above all, always disturbed, and played like puppets by those who control them.
If we understand that we were not always like this, we realise that our deep seated unhappiness is due to the fact that we know we deserve much more that we are told we get and that we have been cheated of a birth right which we inherited during the Golden Age. Those who study the Forgotten Wisdom say that we are all part of an Infinite Consciousness, and that in Satya Yuga we were neither male or female, but just one being, one entity that was in total peace and harmony with the universe.
As we are all nothing but energy, frequency, and light, we can be hacked and the mortal body we are inhabiting can be structured in any way by beings with superior technology who enslave humanity for their own purposes. And to keep a powerful race cowed and confused, you divide and rule. Besides religion, language and national boundaries, the first division was to create male and female from the whole entity we once were.
Ever since then, men and women have always been looking for something to fulfil them, searching endlessly through the ages, through many lifetimes, for their other half. They are told that they should marry, find a mate and produce children, raise them and then their lives are fulfilled, but they find that it is not enough. They keep looking for something, someone to come along and fill that void.
Relationships seem to start off fine and you feel you have achieved what you need to achieve – have someone for you. But you realise that more than the sex, more than the security of having someone next to you who cares for you, it is never enough. You still know deep inside that there is something more you need. Something that is painfully missing.
They missing link is their soulmate – their very own self they lost when the Great Divide was imposed on them. They look for someone who can mirror them in every way, and complete them. They look for the missing part of their soul, their mate.
And the very rare lucky few actually do find them. They may not be your own age, not necessarily the opposite sex, of your own religion or your own nationality but you will recognise your soulmate. They make you incredibly happy and you can be totally yourself with them, and you never worry any more than you will lose them. For once you have found your soulmate, you actually start living.
