Dystopia is waiting on the doorstep!
Special Note: I normally limit my articles to the strictly spiritual.
However I feel the impetus to respond to the deeply-divisive movement facing society.
So I will do so – just this once. Please excuse this divergence.
Please also take the time to read the entire piece: your thoughts will be respected.
I shall revert to Spiritual material through and by Mordechai from next week;
This Week……….Dystopia is waiting on the doorstep.
The first Industrial revolution started about 250 years ago and lasted about 80 years.
During that time the core of society moved from farming other people’s land to working long hours in crude steam-powered factories, mainly creating textiles.
It was exhausting work and paid very little with over half of wages spent on food alone.
Poverty and homelessness was everywhere.
Then, just as things started to improve, the second Industrial revolution began.
It was centred around mass production with steel and factories powered by electricity.
Child labour, continued poverty, poor sanitation and several wars kept many everydayworkers in a terrible condition.
Over the last hundred years things have slowly improved for the ordinary person.
Each revolution has eventually improved the living conditions of the ordinary person.
But it’s been a slow climb to get there.
And now we are all about to face another challenge – the AI Revolution.
The effects of this change will – as before – confront the ordinary family suddenly.
Loss of job. Little income. Sense of helplessness.
The few will become immensely rich – the rest will become significantly poorer.
This year in the US just 4,000 people own 50% of the country’s wealth.
The other 350,000,000 people share the rest.
And the ratio is getting worse every month: the rich are getting richer, the poor are struggling more and more….
The Head of Anthropic, the mega US AI Research and Development company is quoted as saying “AI could be an existential threat to humanity”.
That’s from one of the men who’s developing it!!
Scientists have announced that they have even built a DNA-powered computer that performs calculations using billions of molecules in a tiny drop of water.
The system taps into the laws of physics to create what the scientists describe as a computing system that’s more efficient than the conventional computers that are widely used today.
This will radically reduce the need for architects, accountants, lawyers, doctors, teachers, writers, artists and specialists of almost every ilk.
Put that alongside the development of driverless heavy duty trucks, buses, freight and passenger trains (even about to start in Sydney!), unmanned delivery road services, autonomous aircraft travel, robotic warehouse and factory floors and even mining sites, electronic non-human police and armed defence service personnel (already in service in Asia)……and you have a society that radically reduces the need for truckies, taxi drivers, deliverymen, posties, warehouse staff, retail staff, phone service staff, clerical staff and not nearly as many human police and real people in any of the armed forces (courtesy of the rapidly improving drone and robotic technologies which have already developed so fast and so far as to have secretly placed military weaponry on standby in orbit around the Earth).
I am not trying to scare you or even upset you.
I’m simply sharing what you already know, courtesy of the media.
Dystopia is coming again – and very, very soon.
Unemployment, poverty, homelessness, family breakdowns, drug use, physical violence, environmental ruin and rampant fear and distress are already on the rise.
And it is certain to get a great deal worse before it gets better!
So why do I remind you of the unfortunate obvious?
It’s because this scenario can also be the trigger for attitudinal change – but only if we act.
It’s moments and times like these that can help us to focus on the real (if we let it!)
And the real is that we truly are divine beings of Light and Love.
We don’t need the latest model battery operated car.
We don’t need the latest AI driven mobile phone.
We don’t need the ultra-modern home, complete with Jacuzzi.
We don’t need the latest Paris-fashions for on-field at Flemington.
We don’t need the overseas holiday.
We don’t need the $3million Super package.
We don’t need the 100-inch TV screen, the King size bed ensemble, Espresso Coffee-Maker, automatic Lawn-mower or In-ground spa/pool.
We need one another.
We can always make a job for ourselves.
We can always be creative and design a new way forward.
We can always be a help to others.
We can always let the ‘God Within’ flow through us and help both ourselves and others to heal and prosper in spite of the chaos that might surround us.
This AI Revolution can be the impetus that lifts us out of our blind allegiance to a nonsensical and insane societal structure – and helps us develop a world based on Kindness, Caring, Empathy, Support, Love, Gratitude and Creativity.
It’s our choice.
I’ll be here to help you personally in any way and every way I can.
As usual, I don’t charge.
There’s no need to let the coming changes crush you: they can be the impetus that drives you to discover the ‘awesome you’ silently treading time deep within.
Blessings,
Les
HOW CAN I OVERCOME MY ANGER?
You overcome your anger by finding your love. The moment you access that love – it always lives deep within you, no matter how you feel or what you do – your anger disappears. Try it and see this truth for yourself – you cannot be filled with anger and love at the same time,
Holy Cows!! By Trudi Dyer
Dear Friends, I thought I’d give you a break from the general seriousness of my newsletters this fortnight! After all, we DO have a lot of FUN at Heartland! So…….below is a story from Trudi about our latest family members – three baby cows we’ve saved from slaughter. Quick reminder: Easter is next week and
IS IT SPIRITUAL TO BE RICH ?
This is the second short article from one of my upcoming books. I trust that it helps you, as it seems the first has (thanks to those who emailed me). I have written it – like all my books – for all of us. We all have the right to understand our wonder-full-ness – and to own it.
HOW CAN I ACHIEVE ABUNDANCE ?
If all your questions about life could be answered, would you be happy? The answer for most of us would be ‘yes, but…”. And that ‘but’ would be the sticking point. That’s because it’s not what we know that’s most important – but what we do with what we know. Just a couple of generations
VOTE 1: SANITY
Some people may find this week’s article controversial – it may not be what you expect from a spiritual seeker. And yet, politics and social comment are just as relevant in spirituality as are discussions regarding personal values and actions. All of life is spiritual. All of life is Spirit, the very breath of God,
2012 onward …
I am interrupting my series of channelled messages to address the matter of 2012… “End days” has been a popular scare topic since time immemorial: the early Christians were certain the ‘end’ would happen within their lifetime and many latter-day New Agers have been of similar belief. The close of the Mayan Calendar has driven
JOYFUL CHRIST MASS!
I wish each of you a joyful Christ Mass! The Catholic christian church has celebrated the ritual known as Mass countless times to commemorate the private lives of tens of thousands of individuals over the last 2,000 years. It is fitting that Jesus should be included in their number through the ritual originally called Christ’s

The InnerStanding #6
This message was received in January 1991 in answer to my question at a time when I was particularly unwell.

RE-TURN AGAIN!
There is a beautiful song by Shaina Noll which we sing at Heartland: “Return again, return again, Return to the Land of your Soul”. Many people wonder how to actually return to such a place – where is it? How did we lose it? Where can we find it? The answer is to simply be

The InnerStanding #1
My dear friends, In the late 1980’s I started channelling the energy which has become known as Mordechai. This energy – and its teachings – have focussed my spiritual direction for over 20 years now. They have become the basis for who I am today; and the teachings (titled ‘The InnerStanding’)have been the bedrock of all my spiritual books and
The Way Forward – Part 3
I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely express my admiration to each of you for reading my articles: they aren’t always easy to follow and they certainly aren’t part of mainstream alternative pop culture.
