Saint
Germain talks about conspiracy theories
Question: The subject is the power elite. You’ve mentioned
it a few times already this afternoon and previously. I just saw a book
out called The Family which exposes Fundamentalism in our government
and in business as the corrupt element. We’ve previously mentioned
the Federal Reserve and it seems also that the International Monetary
Fund plays a key role in sustaining their manipulation. Is “the
family” synonymous with the power elite or is that just a subset?
NOTE: This answer was given on June, 27, 2008, during the Shangra-la
conference in Hawaii.
Answer by Saint Germain:
My beloved hearts, the reality is that there are many different kinds
of power elites. Therefore, the power elite covered in the book The
Family is a subset of the larger power elite.
Be aware that when we speak about the power elite, we speak about people
who are in a certain state of consciousness. Yet these people are divided
up into many separate groups around the world who have their different,
separate agendas that often conflict and clash with each other. Which
is why there has not been, is not, and will not be one centralized power
elite that consciously and deliberately controls the entire planet.
My beloved, I may at some point give more detailed teachings about the
power elite and about the concept of conspiracies, yet I will take this
opportunity to give a further teaching on why we of the Ascended Host
do not generally speak about conspiracy theories, and in fact encourage
our students to generally stay away from the conspiracy theories. Because
most of them are so unbalanced that unless you spend a very large amount
of time studying the topic, it will be virtually impossible for you
to know what is a truth and what is simply an unbalanced untruth, or
a manipulation of truth crafted into a conspiracy theory.
For you see, my beloved, I am not saying that all of you should necessarily
stay away from conspiracy theories. There may be some of you who have
or are willing to acquire the specific knowledge about the specific
area of society that then allows you to evaluate whether a conspiracy
theory has some merit or whether it is indeed a partial truth, a distorted
truth, an unbalanced truth, or no truth at all.
For I can tell you that there are conspiracy theories that are completely
made up. There are even some that are deliberately crafted by paid representatives
of the power elite to confuse the people and confuse the entire issue
and get most people on this planet to respond by wanting to have nothing
to do with conspiracy theories—because they realize that most
of them are so outrageous that it defies common sense.
So my beloved, what I wish to say here is something very simple. When
you look at virtually all conspiracy theories out there, you will see
that all of them present a certain image of government and a relationship
between government and the people. And that is the image that we spoke
about earlier, where the government is removed from the people,
my beloved.
Be careful to note what I am saying. I am not denying that there is
a power elite – various power elite groups – who are seeking
to control the people, who are seeking to control and manipulate the
government behind the scenes. I am not denying that there are various
groups that are taking advantage of the democratic form of government
to manipulate public opinion in various ways, through the economy, through
the media, through education.
Yet what I am saying here is something very important. You will not
overcome the problem of the power elite through the conspiracy theories
that are currently out there. And the reason is that all of these theories
– even if they contain elements of truth – are presenting
the image of a distance, a gap, between the government and the people.
And thus, it is virtually inevitable that the majority of the people
who study conspiracy theories come to accept that image – and
even take in the vibration of fear that is the inevitable companion
of that image – and even go on to the consequence, the inevitable
consequence of fear and the anger and frustration.
You see my beloved, what we have explained over and over again in our
teachings
about the ego is that the problem on this planet is separation,
leading to the dualistic illusions that cause you to see yourself separated
not only from God, but from other people. This is the consciousness
that gives rise to the problem that Jesus addressed when he talked about
those who look at the mote in the eye of other people and refuse to
see the beam in their own eye.
And can you see, my beloved, that the conspiracy theories make it seem
like the cause of the problem is the power elite and the government—not
the people. And this actually dis-empowers the people even more, thus
reinforcing the very state where a power elite, a small elite, can control
the people—because they have managed to make the people believe
that they do not have power to govern themselves.
So can you see what I am saying, my beloved? The current conspiracy
theories reinforce the disempowerment of the people, yet the only solution
to the current condition is the re-empowerment of the people. Whereby
the people become willing to see that all conditions are an out-picturing
of their own state of consciousness. And if they want conditions to
improve in society, they must start by looking at the beam, the ego,
in their own eye—being willing then to take responsibility for
their form of government. Saying that “If my government is to
improve, then I must stop seeing myself as being removed from my government.
I must start seeing my government as a government ‘of the people,
by the people, for the people.’ And thus I must see myself as
‘the people’ who must take an active part in my government
instead of sitting back and complaining about the government without
doing anything about it”, my beloved.
For whereas it might be difficult to do something about the weather,
it is not difficult for you to do something about YOUR government by
getting involved at some level. And thus, can you see, my beloved, the
problem with the conspiracy theories is that they reinforce the very
consciousness that blocks the manifestation of a Golden Age government.
For surely, my beloved, you do not envision that in the Golden Age we
will have a form of government where there now is a benign elite who
rules the people, as the so-called power elite rules the people today.
For my beloved, if that is your vision of a Golden Age form of government,
then you are mistaken! And you need to step back and re-align yourself
with the reality of Saint Germain and the Spirit of Freedom. For you
see, my beloved, the Golden Age is an Age of Freedom, and that means
that a government must be based on freedom. And there cannot be freedom
if a small elite controls and makes decisions for the majority of the
population.
You might conceive of a wonderful plan in which spiritually balanced
people – even people who have Christhood – are in charge
of the government and creates a wonderful society where they make all
the right decisions. But you see my beloved, in past Golden Ages we
have had such societies. Jesus, myself and other Masters have indeed
fulfilled the role as rulers of such societies, but why did those societies
go down? Because, in the long run it is not sustainable that an elite
– no matter how enlightened or benign – rules the people.
For the purpose of the material universe, the purpose
of the world of form, is to raise up all life to God-consciousness,
to raise up all people to be co-creators with God, my beloved. And thus,
you see, the law of God will not allow that an enlightened elite can
rule for an extended period of time. It may be allowed to set an example,
but if greater numbers of people are not raised up, well then that society
will eventually go down.
And thus – learning from the mistakes, or at least the conditions
of the past – I, Saint Germain, have created a new vision for
God government in the Golden Age, where it will not be a government
of God working through a small elite, but God working through large
numbers of people, at least the top
ten percent. But even beyond that working in some capacity through
the top fifty percent, my beloved.
And so you see, the Golden Age Government is a government where there
is no longer a distance between the people and their government, because
the people take responsibility for their society, and they each see
that they can be responsible for at least a portion of their society.
The can be engaged, they can be involved at some level – from
the local to the national to the global – and take responsibility
and make themselves the experts that allows them to fulfill that role
in some capacity.
For my beloved, even someone who takes charge of cleaning the highways
– or educating the people as to why they should not litter in
the first place – can find a part in the Golden Age Government.
And so you see innumerable ways that people can be involved and feel
responsible, so that we no longer have the sense that there is this
remote government in Washington, D.C. or somewhere else and I have no
responsibility or no power to have any part of that government.
But where people see what we see in the spiritual realm, where I recognize
that I am part of a greater hierarchy of spiritual beings that leads
all the way to the ultimate Creator and the Mother God, the expressed
God. Yet I am not apart from that God, for that God is within all life.
And thus, when you have God government, you see that that government
can only be God Government when God is allowed to work through as many
people as possible, my beloved.
Thus, I thank you for this opportunity – we all thank you for
this opportunity – and I seal this session in the Freedom Flame
that I AM.
