To really understand the enemy, we must get beyond the surface of things.  It’s not enough to deal with the politics of the obvious, the lives that our senses were meant to deal with.  But to the many other influences that are quite prevalent and looming.  When people ask me who the enemy is in our modern political world, my common response is that they are principalities, hostile members of the Divine Council who were always giving Yahweh a hard time.  I explain to them that there is a very complicated politics attached to this Divine Council that has always been with us, even before we were we.  And an excellent place to start with that understanding is by reading books by Linda Howe such as How to Read the Akashic Records.  I like Linda Howe quite a lot, and she has a lot of books and what they all deal with is unlocking the memory and potential of your human soul and the history it has over a long period of time.  By dealing with the Akashic Records, you can not only deal with the details of your own human soul, the eternal part of yourself that lasts essentially forever, but also communicate with people long gone and, in some cases, people who will become important to you who haven’t even been born yet.  I find Linda’s Akashic Records to be fascinating, and a good step at getting to the real problem of evil in the world and how it spreads.  And is one of the better means of stopping such evil, by going to the lair where many of these principalities reside.  Most cultures have some basic understanding of the human soul and how to at least manage it to the best of their five senses.  Some of the methods used in the Akashic Records can at least help you establish a relationship that stops giving free reign to the many, and infinite malicious characters who reside to attack your essence in the still unlocked mysteries of quantum mechanics where many living things plot, and scheme with the same voracious detail as the most cunning K-Street lobbyists. 

It’s not enough for me to call evil beings and spirits devils or demons.  The truth of the matter requires more definition to begin to understand it.  But when you look around the world at the kinds of problems that start out of nowhere, then consider what the strategic need is, you often need to do more than just pull back the curtain on a Wizard of Oz hiding there.  You must understand why the guy is hiding behind the curtain, who made the curtain, and why.  And to do that, you must deal with malicious principalities who are clearly against God’s plan where we find ourselves as battlefield pawns to a much larger story of interdimensional significance.  For instance, when you look at the motivations of the current terrorist sentiments of Hamas, the Free Palestine movement, it’s not enough to say that the Devil made everyone do it, even if such a statement is headed in the direction of the truth.  The motivations are more complicated than even what the World Economic Forum Marxists could do on their own.  Of course, they are responsible for what they do in life, but why do they believe the things they do, what kind of dreams do they have, and what makes those dreams pop into their heads for which they build political schemes in life to deal with?  The question as to why people believe the things they do is a more critical question than just dealing with the after-effects of their menace. 

One thing that is dealt with in the Akashic Records is the premise of past lives, which then ties some of this to Hindu culture and a way of thinking that steps away from the development of an individual soul, which I would say is the meaning of life.  I’m in a pretty unique thought process on that, and I thought about an excellent way for my verification while I watched people at a Shinto shrine in Japan on a street corner in Kobe.  To my way of thinking, most people get the entire purpose of life wrong, but we have been working these things out for many thousands of years, which is part of a much larger universal process.  Human beings are developing as a species for purposes that are certainly a concern for the principalities of all existence.  And they are highly motivated by how our souls grow.  What’s good for us is likely very bad for them, so much of what our politics consists of on the nightly news has traces of the everlasting politics within it.  But I do not think that memories of past lives, or even famous people from the past, such as having memories of being Joan of Arc or Napolean, is that we were those actual people.  But the DNA in our bodies, just like the water we consume, is billions of years old and likely has some memory, and when we think we are talking to ourselves as a memory, we are talking to these many employees in our bodies who all have unique histories and a vast experience that interacts with us, but may not be “us” as we typically define it. 

The development of our soul through our lives is a purpose that eludes most people, and of course, to fulfill their own political objectives; the principalities of doom are doing what they feel they must do to protect themselves from our soul’s development.  If they can get people to stay focused on conditions that make them easy to control, then the politics of their concern ease them considerably.  But if you are a threat to them, even though you may not intentionally do so, then they will seek politically to eliminate you from their plans, which is the reason that things are so wacky these days.  These forces have always been looming in the background, and living beings developed various religions to deal with them and manage some appeasement relationships.  But when things get out of control for those principalities, of course, they will attack the very soul of those most of a threat to them and attempt to burden them in ways that often aren’t perceptual in the regular ways.  Be very cautious about why you think the things you do, and always question where those sources come from.  They may not be friendly; in fact, I would argue that they are likely very malicious.  The politics of Heaven are much more complicated than our terrestrial lives, and we should expect that.  Just because we haven’t managed to have a relationship with those elements, it doesn’t mean that the human race isn’t on a similar path as our souls, and we are growing an understanding that is very much a threat to the eternal order in a good way.  But to understand this view of existence, the Akashic Records is a great place to start in getting to know the real you, not the creature that is born, and grows up and dies.  But your eternal nature, the real you who, through life, is being developed as you live.  And it is the real you, not the person that looks at you in the mirror, that many of these evil principalities are trying to destroy before you ever figure out what they are really up to.
