You are all in life together
QUESTION: Masters, I am an atheist. I do believe in reincarnation, due to my memories when I was inside my mother. I do believe in a sort of spiritual world, like “Brahma.” I just don’t believe in God-Creator. I have a lot of experience and thinking that makes me believe there has to be a world outside of this human realm. I’m a girl, and I feel like this life has a lot of anger, hatred, and discrimination against females. Why is that, when the females are the mothers of life? What kind of sick game is this world playing? And what is my job here—playing along with it? I have a very pessimistic view that discrimination will never end, and there will still be sufferings. Please tell me what you think of it. ~Anh, USA
ANSWER: For our readers, we would like to say that atheists simply do not believe in the existence of deities or gods. From this definition you can see that the majority of our teachings would fall into this classification since all souls are the same with none being any better than any other. Reincarnation is the process souls choose to go through to occupy their time since they never die. God-Creator as the religions teach is a judgmental ruling deity who punishes those who don’t follow its teachings. Brahma is a deity who is a creator.
When a soul chooses to incarnate it selects a series of lessons to help it understand what powers it has the ability to bring to Earth if it can remember its essence. The first decision made before entering a body is what gender it wants to experience. The world is predominately male oriented at this time because of the fact that most government and business positions are held by males. Non-emotionalism is seen to be strength. So those souls in positions of power stress the male, macho parts of themselves, suppressing their emotional or “female” aspect.
Your “job” here is to work with the position in which you find yourself and see why the situation angers you so much. You chose lessons of self-worth: not being good enough, not accepting your position in life, being discriminated against, and holding on to anger. You must understand why these things affect you so much and turn them into positive learning experiences. Don’t let other people’s lessons of control, domination, and negativity influence you. You came willingly into Earth’s duality of positive and negative; use it to your advantage.
