the sovereign’s way
By Greg Paul - Director of New Earth Project

Once upon a time I, like most people in this world,
believed that I had a name and that this name was
my identity. I believed that money had intrinsic value and I believed that if I had enough of it I could
positively affect the world. I believed that everyone
ought to pay their taxes for the greater good. I believed that statute was law, and that those laws were
there for the benefit of all. I believed that the health
service would fix my ills, that the education system
would impart knowledge, and that the police force
would help me in my hour of need. I believed that
war could be just, that the news told the truth, and
that there really was a free market economy. But
most of all I believed that I was a free man.
As many of us now begin to discover the truths of
our times we come to see that most if not all the
beliefs which have hitherto comprised our reality
framework are false.
And as this blazing light of truth casts no shadows
behind which we can hide, we are faced with a
simple choice; to pretend as we have done before
that we are not the problem, or to quit feeding the
beast and become the solution – the solution that
requires nothing more of us than to embrace our
sovereign birthright and to act in each moment according to the dictates of our conscience.
THE ONLY WAY OUT IS IN
The ‘system’ which we have hitherto sanctioned is
predicated on fear and conflict, it rewards service
to self, inspires hostility toward our brothers and
sisters, and stimulates the secret yet constant battle
for a limited source of energy; the only intelligible
reason for its existence is that through relentless ex-
posure to its apparent evils, it may eventually come
to show us that which we are not – the necessary
catalyst for our voyage of self-discovery.
And as it fulfils this most noble of purposes, and
as we resultantly endeavour to withdraw from its
psychosis, this ‘system’ simply pulls us further in;
the more we resist it the stronger its grip – eager to
retain its psychological stronghold; to harvest one’s
energy; to limit one’s potential.
The only way out, ironically, is to go within – this
system thrives on mind, in fact it is the mind –
existing nowhere but the collective minds of those
who empower it. The only way to rise above its
perceived control, is to cease to identify with that
which it controls – mind… to discover the majestic
stillness underlying all experience and embrace its
perfection as the core of what and who we are –
where the simple truth that it never existed in the
first place becomes the cosmic joke of life on earth.
This is all very well I hear you say, but how do I
attain the peace of mind necessary to accomplish
this seemingly impossible feat? What practical steps
ought I to take to alter the way I am viewed by a
system which seeks to limit this evolution? How
do I break the chains which seek to bind; media
propaganda and manipulation, the unconscious
fear tactics of those around me?...
The questions never stop, and the answers, such
that they are, lead only to further questions… but
what if we stopped for just a moment to ask the
only question that matters – who (or what) am I
who is seeking the answer to these questions?
This self-inquiry is the nexus point. Unfortunately
