And people feel a bit challenged when I say this sometimes, but very often there is a higher level of consciousness and those that are criticised and the greens are the criticising. These egotists who want to have a nice Porsche or a Ferrari say "Now I want to have...more

So the way I see it, up to a certain level of, (for want of a better word), consciousness, you're not ready to manifest, your, (let's call it) mission or something stronger, that you feel what your life is about. You can create a party or ...more

So if you want to develop and become a more conscious, a better source, let's say that, it means developing, what one might call 'consciousness', and how this looks is that each of us is everything. Each of us has the ability to be totally good, and totally evil. We're born this way. But in o...more

So this is why first of all, it demands a certain level of inner work, consciousness work, to start off with before you would want to open this up.
