Are You A "Sleeper"?
A "sleeper" is usually thought of as a mind-controlled individual who is programmed to perform a specific task at a specific time after activation, using a specific code of some type. In general, the word "sleeper" has a negative connotation, and that is what the powers that be want you to think. You would not want to be a sleeper would you?
Or would you?? Maybe not all sleepers are programmed for destruction. Maybe this planet is filled with individuals who are positive sleepers, waiting to be activated so that they can rise up, join thought energy, and change the course of history.
Most sleepers never feel like they belong. That is because they do not. They do not belong to the herd mentality, and never will no matter how hard they try. And some have tried extremely hard with devastating personal consequences.
Have you cloistered yourself because others do not understand you? Have you allowed your inner greatness and power to die down within yourself because you know if you let it out you would so outshine everyone around you that you would never be accepted?
Do you realize that the reason that the wise man goes to live in the mountains is not because the wise man cannot stand the people, but because the people cannot stand the wise man? When the people see a true wise man, it makes them look at themselves and their own shortcomings and failures. Because they cannot stand to look at themselves, the wise man makes them uncomfortable. They do not welcome him with open arms, waiting to learn from him. They make him an outcast so that they do not have to deal with themselves, for he is a reflection of their potential.
The people would rather have false leaders, for it is far easier. Then they can be led down a path that is more familiar, thus more comfortable. Why move out of familiarity? Why become uncomfortable? And, while they may protest, a dictatorship is more efficient and an easier place to be. Someone to tell you what to do and when to do it.
How many of you have ever consulted a "psychic" because you want to know if you should: marry someone, divorce someone, date someone, stop seeing someone, see a certain doctor, not see a certain doctor, move to a new location, stay in your current location, buy a house, rent an apartment, change jobs, not change jobs, etc, etc.
And, if you consulted a psychic, did you stop with one? Or did you ask several the same question? And, are you still looking for the perfect psychic? Do you think that the ones that charge the most money are the best? Can you buy your answers from someone?? After all, isn’t that easier than finding your own answer?
At some point, everyone looks for someone to tell them what to do! Why? Because it is the easiest way out of any situation! But because it is the easiest does not make it the best solution!
People do need to be led. But the reason is because that is how we help each other. There is always someone on the next rung of the ladder above you who can reach back and give you a hand. And, there is someone on the rung of the ladder behind you to whom you can reach back and give a hand. But to find that helping hand, you must look above you, and move vertically, not horizontally. Horizontal movements do not pull you up on your quest. They only distract you from finding the help you really seek. People need to be led into their upliftment, not into their enslavement.
If others feel insecure around you, that is their problem, not yours. Have compassion for them, offer your hand, but if they refuse to take it, do not force the issue. Hold your head up and keep moving forward. There is an old saying, "Don’t cast your pearls before swine."
The more you allow yourself to be exactly who you designed yourself to be, the more opportunities exist for others to find out who they are. Let them be uncomfortable. Let them feel insecure. Whoever said that growth is comfortable? It is not your place to learn their lessons for them. You can guide, but you cannot take on their lessons, because if you do, you are the only one who learns. Let their feelings of discomfort and insecurity be their teachers. Give them motivation for looking at themselves.
What is your function here? Why did you choose to come in these turbulent times? Are you a leader but you have never taken the time to recognize it? Being a leader is the loneliest job available. You have the most responsibility, everyone scrutinizes your every move. The true leader has the least freedom. The true leader has great moral and ethical responsibility.
Be a leader wherever you are, whatever your position in life. Humanity needs leaders who are sleepers to awaken now. How else will the masses have access to true leadership unless the leaders live and work among them, and know what the people need and want? Make yourself available where you are right now. Do not wish you were "somewhere else, in a more spiritual career." Redefine your definition of "leader" and "teacher." These are not formal positions!
Do you want to add to the upliftment of the collective unconscious mind? Do you want to be a way-show-er for others to follow? Or do you want to hide in the comfort of the herd mentality? And that includes "New Age" herd mentality! Is it just "peace, love, and light?" Is it "vegetarianism?" Is it "channeling?" Or "crystals?" Or whatever happens to be "in" at the moment? Whatever you do, know what you are doing and why!
You can do some very bad things even with the best of intentions when you do not know what you are doing! Often people think that something is better than nothing, but that is totally incorrect. Don’t go for the short-term effect, go for the long-term.
Are you adding to the degradation of humanity or to its upliftment? What kind of lifestyle do you have? Is it a positive one with direct purpose? Is it full of fluff-n-stuff that looks great on the outside, but leaves you empty on the inside? Are you settling for ideals that others bestow upon you, or goals that others give you?
When enough people wake up from their sleep to realize that they are here to feel their own strength and power in conjunction with the strength and power of their Oversouls and God-Mind, watch out, because there is a new world coming!
