My youngest son was debating which university to enroll in and what career would suit him.
When he asked for my advice, I told him: “Listen to your spirit.”
His spirit knows perfectly well in which direction it wants to soar, but his intellect and emotions, masquerading as our true “self,” immediately stepped in and wouldn’t let his spirit be heard. They instantly silenced it, clipped its wings, and steered him onto the “safe” path of the matrix, with the following arguments:
“All my friends are already in their second year of studying at the university, and I haven’t even started yet” (The emotions’ argument: fear of being different).
“Without a university degree, I won’t be able to make a living” (The intellect’s argument: pragmatism).
“What do you want to major in?” I asked.
“I don’t know,” he answered, stressed, “they say marketing is a good profession…”
I laughed.
“Don’t you realize AI is about to replace all marketers and shake up the entire job market?”
This argument only stressed him out more.
I tried a different approach:
“Would you marry a woman you don’t really love, just because all your friends are already married, and because you lack the faith and patience to trust that you will find true love?”
This time he laughed, but his spirit still couldn’t break free from the oppression of the intellect and the emotions.
So, I told him:
“Go for it, enroll in the university and study marketing!”
Why did I say this? Because I know that many times, the only way to understand what’s right and what’s wrong for us is to learn through our own experience.
At first he hesitated, because he didn’t want me to pay for a school he wasn’t sure was right for him, but I insisted and reassured him:
“Experiences are the most valuable thing in life, and therefore, I’ll gladly pay for your university experience.”
A month after the academic year started, he already understood that studying marketing forty hours a week was definitely not for him:
“Mom, this is much worse than the prison of high school!”
Many young people reach this conclusion as they experience the breakdown of the old world. They’re no longer willing to close their eyes and continue enslaving their lives to boring intellectual studies, just to hang a diploma on the wall… (or so they can add the title “Dr.” before their name).
I naturally recommended that he leave school and calmly discover the gifts and talents that exist within him. These are the blessings that each of us carries within and that are waiting for creative fulfillment not only for our benefit, but for all of humanity!
But then, I realized again how difficult it is to be free…
Because being free begins with taking responsibility for each of our choices.
Because being free and living outside the box requires much more courage than living within the walls of the matrix.
Because being free means listening to the voice of our spirit — which is our intuition — and not to the external voices of society and the voice of the ego binding us from within.
Because being free means stopping the search for recognition from outside and recognizing and attaining the knowledge of God.
To achieve this freedom, the LET MY SPIRIT GO course was created, which in its simplicity and clarity helps build a solid inner foundation, even for young people yearning to begin their adult lives as free human spirits.
After my son took this course (and also translated it into Spanish), a common language was created between us, which allowed him — following the bitter but short university experience — to open up to emerging new possibilities in the new world.
This is a world where new professions will be created, which won’t limit us to specializing in one particular field, but will combine multiple gifts or talents we were born with.
By the way, we won’t have to develop these talents and gifts necessarily through long and exhausting schooling, but through experimentation and real-life experiences.
After several spirit-to-spirit conversations, my youngest son decided to enroll in culinary school — something he’s always loved doing since he was a little child.
“Start with something you love and then continue to something else you love until you create a profession for yourself. Then, work won’t be a daily burden you long to escape, but it will be a joyous activity of fulfillment.”
