5th internal monad
The fifth internal monad is indeed a sort of “going-within”, that is, a reflection on one’s life
and one’s accomplishments, balancing this with what the fragment had
aspired to accomplish during the lifetime. Often there is a reflection
of agreements, karma,
etc along with past-life associations and lessons that have come to
bear during the present life. This monad is a time for reflection, not
action. We repeat this. When fragments in this stage become agitated,
often culminating in what is presently termed as Alzheimer’s Disease,
it is because they have repeatedly attempted to thwart the natural flow
and continue their lives of action rather than reflection. This is a
dangerous mistake. We see that in the present American culture, this is
occurring with marked frequency. No longer do fragments remember how to
reflect correctly.
Transition from 4th internal monad
The first section we will deal with will involve, as you suspected, the transition from 4th Internal Monad
into the 5th. This can be a particularly difficult and seemingly
unwelcome transition, leading many fragments to try to postpone it in
their attempt to seem “young”, as the current society seems to dictate.
For these fragments, the postponement can lead into difficulties
including menopausal symptoms, “mid-life crises”,
and health problems such as prostate problems, bone density loss and
loss of mental capacity. These are manifested as a result of the denial
of what used to be a welcome and rewarding time in a human’s life.
Today, current culture dictates that this period be postponed as long
as possible. In addition, when the inevitable does occur, it generally
requires that the fragment must then suffer numerous physical
complaints and endure the entire transition alone, unwelcome, and
afraid.
Part of our thrust here, then, in giving this information at
this time, is to help Western human existence return to its roots in
its abilities to embrace these necessary changes in the human
condition. Historically, fragments entering their “senior” years were
revered and honored. Their gifts were recognized and they were kept as
important functioning members of their communities. It is time now,
then, to remember your social history and to give the power back to the
elders of your society.
Relation to diseases
As we previously have stated, it is true that in current western
culture, many so-called age-related diseases are in fact due not to the
natural aging process but rather from the denial of this process.
Diseases such as Alzheimer’s, other forms of senility, strokes, heart
disease and coronary disease, tumors, liver disease, all can be traced
not to normal processes but instead to the stress and strain put on the
body from the denial of the acceptance of one’s graceful maturing into
the wisdom of age. In addition, current Western culture also leaves
older citizens alone and without support or honor, denying them their
birthright and rightful place as respected and honored elders of the
society.
This dual denial has a twofold effect. Not only are the elders
themselves denied the honor and respect they deserve, leaving them to
wither away and manifest dread diseases if only to end the life and
begin anew in the hopes that upon their return that things will have
improved, but society itself is robbed of the richness and fullness of
the energy cycle that is brought about when each member is allowed to
fully flower into a complete human being. Generation after generation
of incompleteness has brought to you a malaise that can ONLY be
corrected by quickly correcting this problem.
At this time we have chosen many of you to begin to make these
changes. These changes will have a marked effect and will be generally
noticeable in all areas of your society within a single generation.
This will include politics and government, the entertainment industry
and the media, education institutions, and private industry. This
sweeping sort of change does not come so quickly without a price,
however, and it is time to speak to you about the difficulties and
strife that will be seen until the shift is complete.
Some of you who have long held certain ideological beliefs
regarding politics and government will have to open your eyes and make
drastic shifts in your thoughts in order to accept these changes. You
must now become open to the sorts of changes that often occur in
third-world countries as they are newly forming their own ideology. You
must be open to social demonstration and protest. Think of what
occurred in America during the 1960’s regarding civil rights.
Past cultures
Previously we have discussed briefly how a fragment is adversely
affected by denying the natural pattern of becoming older. We have
mentioned that many so-called age-related diseases and syndromes are a
direct result of the manifestation of the frustration a fragment
experiences when it balks at flowing with the natural pattern of human
existence on the planet that was established so long ago. We have
stated long before through other channels that in the beginning of
human life on this planet, there was much experimentation with length
of lives and social order. It was soon established, however, that each
fragment must endure the basic seven internal monads, which assist the
fragment in assessing and absorbing the experiences of physical life.
It was also soon established that these monads were to take place in
more or less regular intervals and in a sort of pattern that was most
efficient in rendering the fragment capable of assimilating its
experiences while on the physical plane. Throughout human history,
then, fragments have striven to explain or make sense of these patterns
and attach some relevant meaning to them in a cultural way. Thus, we
have seen many cultures creating ceremonies and rituals to explain or
mark these transitions. Some examples are the Hebrew bris,
coming-of-age ceremonies, betrothals, and funerals and wakes.
(Noticeably absent are any ceremonies marking the fifth internal
monad.)
These ceremonies were important for several reasons. First,
they helped the fragment assimilate itself into the tribe (or cultural
group, if you will) in which it was associated. Second, they drew
attention in the form of energy from the group that internally assisted
the fragment with this actual physical transition. Third and most
importantly, they helped the fragment actually overcome physical energy
obstacles preventing the completion of the monad from taking place.
This is a frequent occurrence and commonly causes the fragment to
experience distress during what was originally set up to be a time of
joyful flow.
Rest now and allow these thoughts and their energy to permeate you.
