Theme For Volume I of Ray Nascent:

Creating our own reality is a popular New Age theme. Prosperity teachings abound on how we are entitled to be abundant in all things, if we just understood how to work the laws of God for our own benefit. There are workshops and books galore whose sole purpose is to help us manifest our dreams into reality. It is almost a quasi-scientific, metaphysical pursuit to discover the laws by which we create that which we want in our lives. But, who is doing the wanting and how do we know whether it is in our highest spiritual good to manifest these things? Manifesting our dreams is our birthright, our entitlement, but what dreams are we creating and which should take center stage in our lives?

Duality Trap: Entitlement

I have a friend who is a Leo. I have had to research what a Leo is, because he believes this aspect of his personality defines who he is. Leos are the manifestors of power in the 3-D universe. They seek to wield power. They seek to build empires. They know how to do this because they have a keen understanding of the laws of concentration, focus, drive, and ambition. They also possess magnetic personalities that can bring others into a cohesive unit to manifest the dream they are envisioning. Leos are driving forces that know how to put all the karmic forces together to work for them.


My friend was very excited to learn I was a Capricorn. It was the perfect business complement to his energy, he informed me. I was entitled to good business karma, and he was entitled to glory. It was a match made in commerce heaven. With both our entitlements, we could easily dominate whatever business we wanted to pursue for personal gain. I found myself agreeing with him.

I had a dream this morning. In it, Amma, a spiritual teacher, came to me and invited me on a walk. We were walking from an ocean-side beach, up a steep hill that had a winding path that led to her ashram. Amma walked behind me. I took a step forward and immediately, a piece of Amma’s present life flashed through my being, and I and her experienced it as one. I took another step, and another experience flooded my being, but this time it was from one of Amma’s past lives. This went on and on as I endured the most heart-breaking set of lives I could ever imagine. My heart burst and I was bathed in my own tears. Amma just kept walking behind me, nodding in agreement: “Yes,” she seemed to murmur to my heart,”It’s a trail of tears.”


Finally, we reached her ashram and I exclaimed: “I can not believe that anyone could have such a miserable set of lives!”
She smiled sweetly, and told me: “It’s time to eat.” She led me to a hall where a long white table stood at knee’s height. We sat on the floor together as she brought out a single plate of food and placed it in front of me. To my complete astonishment, her dark-brown, work-strained, hands reached down to pull a morsel of rice together only to be lifted to my lips. The injustice of the moment stung sharply in contrast to the sweet morsels of love-soaked rice which delighted me.
“ When does she get to eat?” I thought. “When does she get her due? And why feed me? I haven’t done a thing to merit this.”


Then I woke up and wondered about a world where we felt no sense of entitlement, only love and devotion.
