How to Handle Lies: Passing the Test of Fear Versus Love
·OnlineOnlineWhat in the world is going on with all the lies?! Reality is getting stretched to a breaking point! One major sign of planet Earth on the brink of both disaster and rebirth is the prevalence of distressing lies. People are making crazy dangerous self-sabotaging decisions based on false negative ideas, paranoid paradigms, and broken belief systems. To rational folks this makes no sense; is humanity really going to destroy itself over bad thinking? Is there an epidemic of mental illness at the end of history? We must understand the trend to save ourselves.
Join us Sunday Aug 23, 2026 for a free heart-opening mind-healing explanation for what’s really happening. You’re free to disagree and think I’m just another crazy, but this is what I and many other were trained for. The crisis is spiritual, providing evidence that reality is not physically objective but rather a simulation based in consciousness. What’s the difference? Well, if reality was solid and objective, then people would agree on what works best in a cooperative healthy society. After all, we come from nature which thrives in pragmatic life systems. But humans have freewill to go off the rails. People can choose to think false negative beliefs that block intuition, corrupt reasoning, distress emotions, and spread disease. Most people will agree there are some really wrong sick subcultures out there, but then they’ll just point the finger at each other.
Don’t worry, humans aren’t bad and we didn’t invent negativity. The challenge is what any sentient creator species will face in the evolution of their consciousness: how to handle lies and false promises. The devil lies. The devil is a religious archetype, and religion is just early psychology. This is the narcissist in modern psychology, the fascist in politics, and the negative ego in spirituality. We’re talking about a judgmental alter ego that says do what’s bad for you claiming that it’s good, and don’t do what’s good for you because that will be so bad. The classic devil is a pathological liar who inverts the truth in ways that are both crippling to ignore and empowering to catch.
Some therapies say there are “no bad parts”, that every aspect of you is well-intentioned and can be helped to heal. Well, that’s true enough for the real living sides of your personality. But the devil is different; it’s an artificial unreal parasite that fades away on its own. Negativity is a destructive impulse that keeps people in conflict to feed itself. Negative behavior is anti-life, causing pain and suffering, so people must be deceived to practice it. The greatest triumph of negativity is convincing people to generate more negativity to stop negativity, thus keeping it alive. We see this in worst cycles of violence and revenge. The demagogue provokes our emotions to take advantage of our chaos, at least until we understand the game.
So why does destructive false information exist in an otherwise perfect Creation? This is exactly because reality is not objective but rather a subjective exercise in creator consciousness. Everyone needs to evolve for increasing individuation, to become a self-leader and not just another follower. Depending on the culture, individuals may choose to step out of the harmony of nature in order to experience the consequences of specific choices and learn to step back in more consciously. Being negative may have become glorified in pop culture as a cool edgy dark lifestyle. But real negativity is just unconscious suicidal stupidity, from which we need to wake up to become more wise and self-aware than ever.
For this meetup, ask yourself how well you’re coping with the levels of deceit and cruelty in the world today. Are you willing to do the “shadow work”, to find root causes in the self, to change paradigms and heal forever? I’ll explain how consciousness evolves naturally to learn to discern its own best path back to the Source paradise. The domination culture is fear-based, which means that fear is spread by distressing lies to keep people choosing violence over love. You’ll see exactly when a negative ego develops in reality creation, and how to choose the positive direction out of every problem to reclaim your power as a loved and loving cocreator with the greater multiverse. We’ll conclude with a guided meditation to release the lies that kept us suffering in negativity, so we can be guided by our higher self to live happy ever after.
Welcome! Our Inner Selves Mastery spiritual support group is free online every Sunday 11am-130pm EDT, with the last 30 minutes for a guided meditation. If you can’t stay you can get the recording.
