There is much talk about Conspiracy and the dark motives of world leaders. But, conspiracy theorists are noticeably silent about be the most widespread and virtually unassailable conspiracy. This great conspiracy lies at the root of all our problems.The greatest conspiracy every human being is exposed to, at birth, is the idea that we are the personality. That our body, our emotions and intellect define us. Rare is the person who discovers, within their lifetime, that in fact they have subtle bodies and a spirit. That they are more than the personality.
If we only acknowledge the personality, it inevitably leads to acquisitiveness, greed, violence. We can see this in our individual lives as well as globally. Countries hold secrets that they wish to keep from their 'enemies' and even from those who are ostensibly their friends because they want to protect their interests.
Conspiracy theorists mention the Illuminati, a secret group or 'shadow government' who, allegedly are determined to create a new world order in which the general populace will be subjected to their rule. This group apparently has its roots in the past as well as the present. Many prominent people who have great financial clout, are said to be found amongst its members.
Leaving aside the discussion as to whether these theories hold water or not, the fact is that Cosmic Intelligence is far more powerful than any group on earth. To paraphrase Jesus' words, when he was threatened by his enemies with death, he said 'You can have no power over me unless God or the Invisible world, allows you to'.
Cosmic Intelligence is supreme. There is a plan for the evolution of the planet and if we wander too far from it, then Cosmic Intelligence with put us back on track in no uncertain terms. Civilizations have disappeared in the past if they erred too far.
As Hermes Trismegistus said 'That which is above is like that which is below'. Above and below are also within and without, he was talking about consciousness. So long as humanity, collectively, has the germ of greed, desire for power over others and the pursuit of status, then there will be people on earth who manifest these qualities. The outer world is the reflection of the inner world.
So you could say that countries get the leaders they deserve. A President or a Prime Minister, is a reflection of the sum total of the consciousness of the country. So if a country upgrades its collective consciousness, it will manifest a more evolved leader.
It is not that useful to continually dwell on conspiracy theories. They can be a distraction from the real work humans are called to do. The shattering of our collaboration with the forces of the world and the identification with our true Self, our Spirit is, a conspiracy that is worth challenging.
