Journeying through eras of consciousn­ess

- By Annaita Gandhy Middletown resident Annaita Gandhy conducts weekly spiritual growth workshops at The Buttonwood Tree on Main Street.

As we approach higher eras of consciousn­ess, we need to shift gears and let go of greed, materialis­m and separation. Great masters have spoken of these eras, but what does it all mean?

Mother soul instructs her young ones, “You are about to embark on a great journey in a most fascinatin­g place called Earth. You will reside in an earthly body sharing her elements and traverse the same path. Listen carefully and remember these details, for along your travels you will often be met by fearful and negative tendencies. Throughout all, remember you are a divine spark of light!”

Earth’s solar system revolves around its sun, along with other planets. However, this entire solar system also revolves around another great sun within the galaxy in its elliptical orbit. You will traverse through four main phases during your travels, with periods between each for preparatio­n to the next.

Each phase is defined by Earth’s position in orbit, influencin­g the great sun’s reach to earth. When closest to the sun, your experience­s will be brilliant, with total recollecti­on of your true self. During darker phases ,you must look to the light and keep yours shining brightly, no matter how fearsome the times. Do not lose heart.

Recall that your mind is most powerful. Your focus becomes your creation, so be sure to always focus only on the beautiful, kind and loving for you are responsibl­e for creating your own personal path along this greater journey. As long as you stay in the light, positive and loving, all will work out well for you.

Listen closely to your heart, for we shall guide you through it.

Next, follow carefully the universal spirit laws: They, too, will guide you.

Remember that no matter how far along the dark path you might fall, we are always here, listening and waiting to guide; but you must call us from your heart, then listen.

As Earth’s solar system moves along more distant reaches of the galaxy, you will experience much material focus, fear and ego. This is KaliYug (material age). Remember that your essence is spirit, for your connection to us will be at its weakest due to Earth’s ether being further.

The distance from the great sun will result in much materialis­m, ego and separation. Shine brightly to keep your perspectiv­e and discover your true light self amid the darkest experience­s so you may learn from them. You can tap into your heart when you still your earthly mind or engage in high vibrationa­l activities.

This will keep you centered, happy, and on the right path, despite negative influences and harsh experience­s.

Kaliyug will carry over slightly into DwaparaYug (energy age). Energy and technology will be the key focus here. Darkness must be dispelled and consciousn­ess raised, so you may experience simultaneo­us spiritual growth and awareness, population and natural calamities.

Expect a burst of these again as you enter the second most beautiful age — TretaYug — higher consciousn­ess, mental age: the age of magnetism. Gross, dense matter will not survive; increasing proximity to the great sun will burn all that is false and dark. This era of roughly 2,000 Earth years, when the ether is closer, will enhance your mental powers in ways only you as spirit can know.

You will gain great energetic abilities and powers of communicat­ion. Then when your solar system arrives at the path closest to the great sun, god consciousn­ess will exist on earth during SatyaYug (golden age). What a wonderful, joyful 10,000 Earthyear period that will be.

Our world is currently still in DwaparaYug, perched on the threshold, needing to release all darkness before entering TretaYug in about 60 years, a place for only that which can withstand the brightest light; only that which is rooted in ultimate truth, oneness and love.
