I only share what is working for me. At some point I realized something that can be crystallised into this thought/concept:
Every circumstance/situation at any time can be uniquely and consciously interpreted by each individual in such a way as to maximize the spiritual growth of each individual.
I find that this is the essence of Self-Responsability. A person living by that understanding can never be made into a victim of anything/anyone. Is this not true freedom in itself? I find that it is applicable on microlevel as well as macrolevel. That is why I agree when HH and RA talks about "catalyst". Not because they say so, but because it is my own experience that this is so. Most of my juvenile years here was lived in great fear/anguish/depression/shame etc. At some point the above "principle" was understood, and from that point on my growth/evolvement out of it happened very rapidly. Some call it the "
Rubber-band-effect". I have also seen this happen in people that I am familiar with.
I guess we came here agreeing to "take in" a portion of darkness and transmute that into Light. Thus contributing to the overall cleansing process of the Mass Consciousness and the Planet. Most people are simply not Aware/conscious of the fact that they are not responsible for what "happens", but rather how they respond to whatever happens. Without Awareness of the presence of choice, each person simply think that their "first reaction/perception" of anything is the
only and thus "correct perception". Usually this "first perception/reaction (which is often a very conditioned/biased reaction/perception)" is judgmental in nature. The "wrong" is in the world or in someone else, not in their very own perception. This is the socalled "blindspot" which exist in everyone. We see the splinter in other peoples eyes, and not the log in our own. The world and socalled "others" should serve as a mirror so we can carefully remove our own log. This is how it is designed. Most people sadly fail to realize this. I am not aiming this at anyone here as I think most people are aware of it here. But it is good to be reminded some times also.
