Shambhala Warriorship is the challenge of living a positive, spiritual life in a negative, degenerative world. The very wear and tear of sick society on a sick planet where people cannot think and their leaders refuse to learn harmonious decision-making is utterly depressing and debilitating if one does not have a personal strategic vision of the Divine and Cosmic evolution of human beings everywhere on all worlds and not just the pitiful and wretched Earth. Without a Cosmic Perspective, one is swallowed up by the psychotic mediocrity of local humanity, by the heedless, stupid, dull, self-destructive degeneration. For the fact is that even seeming “spiritual search” is carried out in a shallow, ineffective way on Earth. So the challenge is for you to carry out a truly effective Spiritual Quest and follow through on a Yoga Sadhana of Realization of Godself.
The more you open your inner eyes, the more you will see not only the full horror of degenerative human life on Earth, but the full magical opportunity of regenerative life of aware and harmonious individuals. Like the salmon swimming and leaping against the current of a racing, dark river is the sacred path of a Shambhala Warrior.
Shambhala is not an outwardly organized spiritual movement or a new religion. Shambhala is an invisible network of conscious, real individuals who are personally regenerative and realizing their awakening Godself. The battle against the growing evil on Earth is fought and won in one’s own body and immediate way of life. The number or quantity of Shambhala Warriors does not mean anything significant. Their popularity is not a factor. What matters is their own quality as beings and their ability to telepathically commune in the Shambhala Network.
To learn the principles of the New Shambhala is to fuse Vajrayana Buddhism, Naqshbandi Sufism and Indian Yoga into a working whole in your own life, consciousness and being. This is not a mere composite belief or sentiment, but a pragmatic coordination, a Super-Way. It not only can be done, but it must be done. The old petty, exclusive, self-isolating spiritual traditions of mechanical, organic conditioning are not enough for the emergent future. Victory over spiritual and occult prejudice in your own mind is a powerful battle for Real Truth within the life and consciousness of a Shambhala Warrior. How can we win a war when we do not know what the real conflict is about? So, an awakening is needed.
What are some great teachings of awakening? Try Krishnamurti, Zen, the Heightened Awareness of Mexican Nagualism and Gurdjieff. Understand awakening from all useful angles of itself. Awakening is not a prejudice! Would that not be a rather obvious contradiction?
It takes courage to learn and practice the Big Universal Way where it isolates you socially, outwardly, when you cannot have solidarity and identity with some form of collective stupidity and self-deception. A Shambhala Warrior needs the courage of a Free Spirit, an indomitable misfit, a genuine Hunter-Traveler, a Starry Magus, an Ontological Anarchist, a scavenger in Temporary Zones of Autonomy. It is to be a human alien on Earth. It is to get the Flyer, the Mud Shadow, the Specter, off your back. It is to stop wasting your time in social “spiritual” forums on the Web.
Wake up and realize Godself for real. It will not make you popular or accepted, just as it does not make Me popular or accepted. The Way leads out of mediocrity, not further into it.
