Illuminating Insights

With Joseph Kenneth (Viña Del Mar, Chile)

Media and Advertising -How are you Influenced?

JKmedia1What makes something seem important to you? What spawns, and then influences the decisions you make? From small decisions like choosing the cloth you buy and wear, to major decisions like whom you marry and how many kids you will have? I ask, are you consciously aware of why you make each decision in your life? And to be completely blunt, to what degree have you simply followed the collective stream of social patterns throughout your entire life?

In today’s modern world, we cannot so much as get out of bed, and not somehow be affected my media and advertising. It is quite a common thing now to sleep next to our smart phone, and habitually check our emails and messages even before getting out of bed in the morning.  Here, we may see media streams, advertising, and what’s “trending”. And depending on where you look online in the morning, you may even be given a level of fear to carry with you each day based on global and local tragedies.

Jk media2Yes, there is no question about it; modern media has become so extremely influential, that its effects can sway entire populations on any given day. And to remain clear here, to influence collective thoughts at this scale, is to actually sway the mutual energetic frequencies of our planet.  Countless studies have shown us that collective human energies have risen and fallen like the tide, as major global events occur. From the incidents of 911 in the states, to the assignations of influential world leaders, to times of war, to times of both recession and economic stability, human thought patterns can actually be measured and gauged as an influential factor surrounding these occasions.

As a quick note, I refer a lot to humanity as a collective organism that shares collective thoughts feelings and emotional patterns, and for anyone new to this concept, I encourage you to look into the “advanced course in daily Hermetics” available here on the L*B*T website, to really comprehend this concept at the experiential level. (Just click here)

 

While there is absolutely nothing wrong with being part of a collective process in thought, trends, global movements and what have you, I ask again, are JKmedia3your truly aware of what decisions and actions come from “you,” and what decisions and actions are driven from media and advertising? I ask you this month to go deeper into you meditations than ever before, and pose the question “why” to all major decisions you have previously made, as well as decisions you are now pondering, to create your future. Find the root of why, and realize from where this decision comes. You will ultimately realize what has authentically been generated from your spiritual essence, and what has been fabricated from the external influences of media and advertising.

It would be ironic to elaborate too far here this month in these matters, as even these words I deliver, are in some way, an influential form of media. Therefor, this month, I will only encourage our readers to claim their independence in thought, action, and ultimately, your feelings, with respect to your life and the world around you. To jump back to the Hermetic based perception of the world, be the creator of your reality at the experiential level, and you will come to find that the world is actually your playground to both simultaneously enjoy and create! Remain dedicated to personal independence, and you will come to know that you are not the marionette of these seemingly influential media and advertising streams.

In closing, I will state honestly that this may sound unrealistic, or even unimportant to some readers. This too, is as it should be.
