In concluding, today, I highlight that this is not a moral view of this matter, meaning, individuality and its social expressions are not necessarily wrong, evil, bad. Rather, as will be made clear in the next presentation, the individual and its ways of creating groups is a part of the way from and to Spirit. That is, Totality, the Ground of all experience of less-evolved and more-evolved ways of Being, is, so to speak, on the other-side of individuality, so including individuality.
What I have addressed is the false claims of individuality, the illusion of individuality as having substance in itself, and that individuality opens to a trust in false belongings and group commitments that delay the transcending of individuality in the embrace of boundless Love for all. Rather, individuality, I have expressed, is the ground of isolation, even when seeking belonging through devotion to the collective. So, individuality is not wrong in itself, it is, however, not what it claims to be. And, therefore, belonging is not a matter of not being alone, being apart. One can be isolated among a myriad, or enjoying belonging in solitude from others.
This individuality, also, while not wrong in itself, must be surrendered to the fire of Spirit for communion as an inclusive expression of Grace to arise. This withinness so intimate it negates all self-enclosed isolation, all false belongings, I will speak of in the next in this series, by placing it within context of the evolution of Spirit, or hierarchy of Being.
