Came across this article, and found it quite interesting (clearly written & spoken)...'the message seems quite universal by nature, & for me; makes alot of sense.'
Soul Purpose - by Glen Russell
Earth is a planet that carries the primordial fear energy ? the survival instinct. It is only through the presence of this fear energy that people get angry and upset and do terrible things to one another.
And it is only because people do terrible things to one another, that we as souls can be given an opportunity to forgive one another, tolerate one another, and have compassion for one another. Without this fear energy existing, we as souls could never experience unconditional love, which is the purest form of love there is. (sort of a ying/Yang, negative/positive principle working here.)
You as a soul have chosen to incarnate to the Earth plane to experience and master these higher qualities of love, such as compassion, forgiveness, tolerance, empathy, unconditional love, and so on. Not only to just to experience these higher love emotions, but to eventually become a Master Soul, an Ascended Master. It is similar to someone in the navy (the soul), choosing to become a navy seal (an Ascended Master), and needing to go through the difficult training period (incarnating to the Earth plane).
Not all souls choose to incarnate to the Earth plane and experience and master these higher qualities of love, going on to become Master Souls. This is because Earth is a very difficult place for a soul to exist. In fact, souls who choose to incarnate to the Earth plane are considered by other souls as being very brave. Earth is considered the Mount Everest of planets to incarnate and evolve from because of its thick dense negative energy.
Over the course of hundreds and sometimes thousands of lives, the soul seeks to experience every human emotion, and to master all higher qualities of love, such as forgiveness. This means that essentially a soul must become immune to anger present in others (hate, hostility, jealousy, vengeance, etc), and look past these negative emotions present in others and see the underlying fear for what it is ? just a temporary illusion to help us as souls master these higher qualities of love. (here, it's as if roadblocks (are) purposely put in our way -is it all illusion for a higher calling? Most likely. Since it is my belief that humans do exist for a *Higher Purpose & Calling*)
~continued.. 'Soul Purpose'
And when a soul is evolved enough to see through the illusion of the fear energy, and recognise the purpose of this energy, a soul then is able to let go of the fear, and no longer feels angry, hateful, jealous, insecure, etc, after much awareness and practice.
Only then, can the soul let go of the emotional body that is filled with negative feelings and emotions. These negative feelings naturally dissolve over the course of many incarnations as the soul is able to see past the illusion of the fear energy.
Every soul, however, has lessons it seeks to master during this one particular incarnation. Understanding what lessons you have chosen to master during this lifetime is very important and can help a soul reduce the number of times it needs to incarnate to Earth. Before you are born, you sit down with your spiritual guides and determine what lessons you need to master during this lifetime and what karma you need to balance. This information is encoded in your soul's life blueprint, accessed through the subconscious mind from your Higher Self, a part of your energy that remains in the spiritual realms.

hmph....i like that
oops, forgot to mention, comments in (italics) are mine, not the author.. =)
Good food for thought, solitas. ...Perhaps we can say life is like going 'full circle', we start with love; going through the experiences, disciplines, lessons, ultimate joys, highs, lows, war, peace, etc. etc, all that life has to offer' to finally learn the ultimate truth of unconditional love; and become that Master Soul, or Ascended Master. Maybe through the 'highest form' of love, everything else is possible... *just think if countries had loved and respected each other, there would be no wars and senseless life lost..
"the American highway system, the internet, DVD, laser check out scans, synthetic rubber tires, rocket ships, advances in aviation, advances in electronics, atomic energy, etc we can see that many of them were indirectly related to war."
Interesting point, solitas; i really never thought of that specific correlation; but then i'm thinking...wouldn't these inventions, 'eventually' get discovered, anyway?? Do we honestly need to blow each other up, to discover or advance ourselves? The world is our golden oyster; there are alot of very smart, genius people out there. As they say, *neccessity is the mother of invention.* We must have faith in the ideology of peace, and its own future design and purposes.. But of course, still a very good point, and truly makes one think of all the hidden implications of the war on the bigger-scale of things; the history and humanity. If there ever was a 'silver lining' that came out of the war; certainly perhaps that would be one of them. Both freedom and invention; to never die in vain..
"Out of every good there is evil and out of every evil there is good."
I agree; mankind can certainly be both everything and the lowest of things. I think the lessons of 'balance' in ALL things, is one of the bigger purposes we strive for on earth. From the mundane to the spiritual. Of course we most likey can never totally escape the evil effects that are a part of our everyday existence. (This is where our *fear energy* our survival instincts kick in.) re-quoting: "And it is only because people do terrible things to one another, that we as souls can be given an opportunity to forgive one another, tolerate one another, and have compassion for one another." {perhaps this would be evil's silver-lining.}
"WW2 killed 50 million people and impoverished and enslaved even more but on the other hand the technological developments and advances in industrialiation that resulted set the western world and Japan on the path of prosperity today."
On the colder, more clinical sides of things, perhaps for some. But my heart says, no; if my great grandfather or someone I knew, or anyone for that matter, got gassed and killed soley for political gains, I would say this is pushing the cart 'way' before the horse. Again, i would want to have the faith in our scholars, inventors and future genius's to see us through, as well as other countries...'Industrialization would have still happeneded..'
(sorry) small amendment from: 'Industrialization would have still happeneded..'
to, my gut tells me, and i would also have much faith and hope that important advances in undustrialization would still have happened...
Your very welcome, M Ldy .. smile

"There are many paths to choose in life. (our own will). However, the path/s chosen (were) still the ones mean't to be in the very end, as we do write our own life charts. Thus destiny/karma - what are we supposed to be learning/sharing/giving back, this time around? (our own personal missions). I also believe there are very few coincendences in life." .. ~sylvia browne.
*It's strange, but am not too surprised; looking back now, the article and the many things Sylvia Browne has shared through the years, uncannily mirror each other.
I believe we are in control in many ways/yet a certain fate likely exists elsewhere.
*The continuous synthesis of two very different parallel existences/worlds.*
