But, puzzling riddles and seeming contradictions do more than just puzzle us, In my view, they direct us to discovery of subtle depths not picked up the casual reader.<\/p>\n<p>So, here&#8217; my take:<br \/>\nThe Seth materials reveal that each of our subjective realities create our physical realities, it&#8217;s\u00a0NOT the other way around. Once we accept that we actually create every person, place and thing in our personal physical reality, then we&#8217;re in place to discuss such riddles. Until that&#8217;s accepted, there&#8217;s no need to discuss further. Please stop reading now.<\/p>\n<p>Most of us have been to an arcade and enjoyed shooting of\u00a0enemy\u00a0invaders or\u00a0space aliens. But if we find ourselves fighting enemies that we fear can actually enslave or kill our most valued possessions (freedom and liberty for our person, family, country or humanity) the fun quickly subsides. War isn&#8217;t fun; It&#8217;s painful, it&#8217;s &#8220;Hell&#8221;. \u00a0Nobody enjoys it when they are in their right minds.<\/p>\n<p>The cost being so high, there would not be war if some beneficial justification or\u00a0redeeming value\u00a0weren&#8217;t\u00a0<strong><em>perceived <\/em><\/strong>by its participants.<br \/>\nThe mantra&#8217;s of justification always turns to either:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">1) seeking to obtain what is desired by offense, also called\u00a0plunder, or<br \/>\n2) seeking to defend or\u00a0protect our most\u00a0valued against such\u00a0plunder by another.<\/p>\n<p>Once humanity finds a better way to get and keep what they discern\u00a0of value, war\u00a0and killing will stop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Seth opposes war and killing, because there&#8217;s a better way.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since you&#8217;ve continued reading to this point, You believe you create your own reality and recognize you weren&#8217;t killing some Viet Cong enemy found outside of you, you were killing an enemy of your own creation, an opponent that\u00a0was perceived as a threat to what you value. \u00a0It didn&#8217;t need to be a Viet Cong or even a person. At the metaphysical level, it was a threat in the way of what you want. The option to use war and killing\u00a0was also\u00a0constructed by you into your reality. We understand\u00a0they were all\u00a0constructed for the\u00a0purpose of bringing insight and value fulfillment to your being.<\/p>\n<p>From the study of Seth, you&#8217;ve come to understand the great power you hold in forming your own reality according to personal preferences and that through the application of your conscious mind and intellect you can\u00a0identify and choose to develop those\u00a0beliefs most beneficial toward achieving\u00a0the\u00a0ends you desire or discern preferences toward.<\/p>\n<p>WAR, killing, and bad experiences are actually\u00a0good. \u00a0Not only do they reveal themselves as UNWanted, they help clarify and\u00a0identify what is\u00a0preferred instead.<\/p>\n<p>So why do we\u00a0create\u00a0a Viet Cong enemy when we clearly recognize we would prefer something else?<\/p>\n<p>As noted above, metaphysically, the Viet Cong <strong>represented a threat<\/strong>. \u00a0From Seth we know that every object in physical reality has it&#8217;s counter part in our framework II subjective reality. \u00a0We create enemies in objective\u00a0reality to represent what\u00a0we <em><strong>believe<\/strong>\u00a0are threats within\u00a0our\u00a0<strong>subjective realities<\/strong><\/em>; ie,\u00a0threats to our achieving what we\u00a0value and discern a preference toward.<\/p>\n<p>We can go on killing one\u00a0enemy after another but we&#8217;ll never kill enough of them to eliminate the subjective belief of threat. And until we do, we&#8217;ll keep finding\u00a0enemies to fight in our physical reality.<\/p>\n<p>Fact is, Seth tells us <strong>we live in a cooperative universe<\/strong> where the only threats are those we create. \u00a0We don&#8217;t need to fight enemies, there are none. \u00a0We should stop killing because it doesn&#8217;t work.<\/p>\n<p>Until that is learned, the power of deliberate creation is impeded. So it might be\u00a0said, <strong>there is an enemy and the enemy is ignorance<\/strong>. The only threat to learning is a lack of <strong>conscious experience<\/strong> brought about by a <strong>fear to\u00a0observe<\/strong>. I believe in the end, even the thickest mind will eventually decide they&#8217;ve had enough and get it.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll never find \u00a0peace at the price of war. You&#8217;ll never find calm by fighting the\u00a0threats to\u00a0calm. You&#8217;ll never find prosperity by killing the threats to prosperity.<\/p>\n<p>It will be a milestone achieved for each of us when we fully embrace we create our own\u00a0reality and recognize the way to create and enjoy a value fulfilling reality experience is to stop fighting against what we don&#8217;t want\u00a0and instead pursue creating and enjoying the creations that we DO WANT.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the message of Seth to me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Further Study:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Individual and the Nature of Mass Events, Session 854<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&#8220;To kill for the sake of peace only makes you better killers, and nothing will change that.
