The Theme is Power
Consider what has been said here about the theme of the millennium. The theme is power, who has the power. When such a thing is your question and your focus, you are going to find a lot of activities like building walls and knocking them down. Not all of them are going to be physical walls.
Everybody that is involved in that theme, during whatever time period, is going to have personal experience of some sort involving this. Each one is going to personally experience some aspect of having the power or not having it.
If you don’t have it, what happens? You are inside the wall, captured; or outside it, left out.
If you do have it, what happens? You are the one putting up the wall or knocking it down. All of these aspects are based on the focus, which is finding out who has the power.
Each of you takes turns, sometimes not so graciously, to see if it is you who has it.
What you find here is that everybody together is taking down the wall, and trying not to put it back up somewhere else. There is an attempt to see what happens without a wall. And that is the result, most directly and practically, of the personal experience of all of the individuals who have experimented with living the personal life without walls. Without restrictions on what is thought and enacted.
Whenever you eliminate a belief such as “I must do what other people want to be worthwhile”, you take a brick out of the wall. Whenever you adopt a belief such as “Whatever I do is valuable because I do it with joy” you are easing the way to a world without walls. This is not just a nice thing to say to make you feel good, it is the way reality works.
Taking Down the Walls
Physical structures are the concrete-ized versions of psychic structures. Physical walls and limits are the result of psychic walls and limits. And so of course if you eliminate the psychic ones you are going to see a change in the physical world.
Now, it has been a long time coming, this knocking down the (Berlin) wall. And that isn’t meant in a critical sense. It is meant in a sense that it is the focus of the whole millennium. It is your century’s—your generation’s—version of the theme. Putting up the wall, taking down the wall.
It is how you, your group, is learning about this millennium’s theme. And each group’s learning contributes to the learning of each other group. Every step towards living without walls, throughout these 1000 years, has led to knocking down this wall.
If you look at the millennium as its own period of time, and consider events there the way you might the events of your own life, as a pattern, you can see that all of these events fit together into a whole that is expressed for each group in whatever way is appropriate.
That is why this event seems so significant. This wall has not been there so very long, as walls go. And yet it seems a millennial kind of event, that it is down. This event resonates with the significance of all other events of its kind, it has them as its foundation and its result.
Use the Energy for Personal Transformation
Personally, besides creating this event with the energy of your change, you can also use the energy of this event to help yourself. It is the way events work. The millennium is this way too.
Not only do you create the event of the millennium with your group energy, but you use the energy of the turning of the cycle to help your own process.
So smash up a few bricks. Set some up in your backyard and knock them down. Label the structure for yourself—put whatever name to it that you want. Don’t call it the Berlin Wall, call it the Poverty Wall or the Bad Relationship Wall or whatever is suitable to you. Imagine great rays of energy coming over the ocean to strengthen your arm as you knock down the bricks.
This seems even more significant than at the time of its writing, considering the remarkable changes that have happened in Europe since 1989. Walls of all sorts were truly knocked down, and Union developed amazingly quickly from a divided continent.
