The law of balance
NOTE: This
is an excerpt from the book The
Least You Should Know About Life.
When the material universe was created, the light in this sphere had
a certain level of intensity and a certain level of vibration. This
represented the starting level, the “cosmic background radiation,”
and co-creators are meant to use their creative abilities to raise both
the intensity and vibration of the light, until the material universe
can become part of the spiritual realm. If co-creators had multiplied
their talents, there would have been no suffering on planet Earth. Yet
because of free will, it is possible that a co-creator can misuse its
creative abilities and generate light of a lower vibration than the
original level. This will then create an imbalance in the universe,
and for you to grow, the imbalance you have created must first be restored
to balance.
As you descend into the material universe, you are given a certain portion
of light and the free will to do with it whatever you want. If you use
the light in a loving manner, you will raise its vibration and intensity,
thus being in harmony with the purpose of creation. If you use the light
in a selfish or even self-destructive manner, you will lower the vibration
of the light and create an imbalance in the universe.
You do have free will to do whatever you want, but the law of free will
does not work alone. It is inseparably linked to the law of consequences.
This is what science calls the law of action and reaction and what many
spiritual teachings call the law of karma. It basically states that
you are responsible for what you do with the Ma-ter Light. If you use
it lovingly, you will raise up yourself and all life and your powers
will be expanded. If you use it selfishly, you will create a debt to
life and you cannot move on until you have paid back the debt, balanced
the karma, purified the misqualified energy or however you prefer to
describe it. In other words, you have complete freedom to do whatever
you want, but every action has consequences and you cannot escape experiencing
those consequences. You do not have freedom to do what you want without
experiencing any consequences.
The purpose of the universe is your growth in self-awareness, meaning
that you are here to learn. You learn by conducting an experiment and
then learning from the consequences of your actions. If your actions
did not have consequences, how could you possibly learn? And if you
did not learn from your actions, how could you grow in self-awareness
and fulfill your reason for being? In other words, you were not created
for the purpose of enjoying – forever – what this planet
has to offer. Nor does your own higher self want you to remain stuck
forever in a limited sense of identity as a miserable sinner or a sophisticated
animal. You descended here in order to grow in self-awareness and eventually
ascend to higher levels of learning. The question now becomes how you
chose to learn from the consequences of your actions.
