You’re Creating Chaos!

When you finally realize that no one or nothing can have influence over you without your consent, you’ll tap into your true power. As you enact this power, your ability to create will speed up. Sounds great, doesn’t it? But there’s a catch. The conditions for this empowered creation are that you must stop trying to control others' experiences and stop comparing your life to how others live. Without these conditions, your creation becomes a chaotic mess, leaving you feeling victimized by the very world you are creating.

Much of what you perceive in the world is misunderstood. You observe what others are doing—whether it's using drugs, drinking, polluting, or expressing racism—and you’re convinced that it’s all wrong. But why are you observing the world this way? Why are you constantly comparing yourself and using the "drug" of control to feel acceptable? Ask yourself this: has control ever truly made you feel better?

Humans use a variety of tools to make themselves feel better. Let’s look at some of these tools: drugs, alcohol, control, workaholism, righteousness, diets, exercise, and practices. When you see this list, do you immediately categorize some as worse than others? Why? The truth is, all of you are simply trying to feel significant, to prove your worth—whether to yourself or others. And that’s why you do what you do. The key here is to let go of judgments of what’s right or wrong, what’s better or worse. Instead, embrace all that you witness and allow it to guide your own choices. That’s right—follow your own preferences, and love those who’ve shown you what you don’t prefer, not through judgment or condemnation, but through honor for their path.

We’re not condoning the use of any of those methods to feel better. What we’re saying is that they are all part of the creative process, and each individual is making choices based on their own experience. Some will choose a certain path, others will avoid it—this is contrast, and this is the world you live in. But the higher vibrational choice, the Divine reality, comes through love. You cannot achieve this reality by feeling negative toward how someone else is creating their experience. You guide others toward Divine creation by loving and accepting them as they are, and making your own choices based on what you’ve learned.

Understand this: righteousness is a drug. It gives you a temporary sense of power, but like any drug, the effect wears off and leaves you wanting more. True power comes from recognizing that every human is worthy, and no one has the right to decide otherwise. If you judge another as wrong and yourself as right, you will never achieve full connection with your source or the fulfilling life you are meant to live.

This is what separation is: you’ve separated yourself through your own misguided thinking. But if you stop thinking and start feeling, you’ll never feel separated again. Pay attention to how you feel in every exchange. Your source is always there in those moments of observation, filling you with either connection or disconnection, depending on your thinking. You don’t need to do anything—just invite the observer within to do the work for you.
