Unconditional Salvation

In the book, "The Ascension of the Planetary Consciousness", we described how Earth's ascension will be unique. This event will mark the first unconditional ascension in the history of the universe. Unconditional salvation is a downscaled, individual version of the Unconditional Ascension. It's based on the IROOT:NOTian belief that we are "Pre-Saved."

What We Have Now

Our culture offers us three broad categories of salvation. The first category is religious. In the West, they say that if you follow God's rules and believe in the True Prophet, then you are saved. The insurmountable drawback is that no one agrees on the rules or even who the True Prophet is. In the East, they offer reincarnation as the slow road to salvation. If you can "get it right," then you've saved yourself; you won't have to be born again.

The second category is scientific. Most scientists don't believe in salvation, because they tend to be atheists. Some scientists, though, believe that humanity might one day travel through an interdimensional wormhole and arrive in another universe. Humanity will escape the end of our universe by moving to a new one. (It's all about survival.)

The third category is political. The Communists see salvation as surrender to the state.

Shift

Neither Western religions, Eastern politics, nor accurate but dry science satisfied the new crop of Lightworkers who were budding like dandelions in spring. They eagerly embraced the more colorful - and some say, more reasonable - stories of Eastern religion and philosophy. By doing so, however, these seekers assumed different burdens. They must now live countless earth lives. They must juggle a karmic debt system that's even more impossible to balance than the national budget.

Another Possibility

In contrast to the above categories (and to the Futilitarian's "What's the Use" philosophy), IROOT:NOT offers Unconditional Salvation, and YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO JOIN THE MOVEMENT to get it! Resistance is useless! The model is simple, and simple is good. Part I of The Third Miraculodynamic Axiom sums it up:

"When you die, your divine consciousness unconditionally merges with the One."

This simple axiom will draw moral fire. It shouts the idea that God loves and accepts everyone unconditionally. God must realize that we're all in the human bodies, chock full of limitations. Psychologically, we're riddled with paradoxes, and many have traumatic scars. Someone can always counter any idea we have with an equally valid point of view. Even reasonable, devoted people must consider for a moment the possibility that God doesn't exist.

For instance, why does He allow all of this suffering? Even the most devout believer must ask this question. It's as if Nature has crucified us to a Suffering Template. Sure, we can explain this a couple of ways. He wants to "test our faith" or "let us learn lessons." But if He's so . . . so . . . BIG about everything, then why would He need to test our faith? Being omniscient, He already knows whether we'd be faithful or not. Does He like to see His minuscule creatures squirm? Or "to learn lessons": We have to suffer - for many lifetimes - just to learn something? Why doesn't He just tell us what "it" is in the first place! (Because we'd miss all the painful learning experiences?)

An Experiment

For many IROOT:NOTians, all of this - life, the universe, and everything - is an experiment. Stumbling through countless lifetimes trying to find The Answer is unnecessary. This endless search for The Answer is SOMEBODY ELSE'S IDEA! Bungling through one lifetime is enough.

If you think about it, throughout history, great minds from all cultures have struggled to find The Answer. (Some have even claimed that THEY are The Answer.) Yet, whenever two people agree on what It is, they inevitably interpret it differently. What's worse, while you're in Search Mode (trying to find It), you usually create an additional layer of suffering. YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU MUST FIND IT TO BE HAPPY!

IROOT:NOTians are quick (but cautious) to observe that The Answer PROBABLY DOESN'T EXIST! We've been spending at least part of our lives LOOKING, when EXPERIMENTING might have been less painful, more fun, and at least more holistic.

Have you ever noticed that when you stop trying to get something or are indifferent towards it, the universe often drops it in your lap? Try saying, "Ah, who cares about the stupid Answer anyway" (and meaning it in a non-sarcastic way). Maybe The Answer (if it exists) will pop into your brain while you're brushing your teeth.

As Evin, The Unsavior, I want to share this thought with you. It's neither a threat, a promise, nor a command. At best, it's like an angel's feather tickling your imagination. At worst, it could trigger a judgment program. In the middle somewhere, it will mean nothing. "You are Pre-Saved. When you die, you will fully experience your God Self, even if you've been a bad boy (or girl) in this life."

If you accept this option, you might ask yourself "What's next?" Being "Pre-Saved" is an idea, like "needing to be saved" and "balancing your karma." Ideas are something to experiment with, until you've found The Answer.

By the way, Part II of The Third Miraculodynamic Axiom states:

     "When you [as a human] die, you stop hallucinating and remember that you are the One."
