And so you have another shooting. One human being has taken many with his own hand. We assure you that those who you say “lost their lives” are not lost, but are in good hands, adjusting to their new environment, hovering, most of them, around their grieving family members, trying to make their presence known. And so you grieve. And you ask, “When will it end?” It will end when consciousness rises to the point among all human beings where you all recognize the point of your existence: to love one another and to love yourself.
Many of you have asked, “When will the wars stop?” and you are seeing signs that more and more are coming to understand the need to remove your so-called weapons of mass destruction, but these weapons exist in your very homes. You call them televisions. There you and your children view killing not only on a daily basis, but hour to hour and minute to minute. You can now watch this killing, which you call entertainment, not only on your big screen in your theaters, as you did in your days of old, but on the computers, tablets, and tiniest of telephone screens.
Do you remember a set of tablets which decreed, “Thou shalt not kill?” It would be wise to heed their advice, and the other commandments held therein. They are timeless, but time has not changed the fact that humans learn by trial and error. You have moved from war as nation fighting nation to war as humans taking their anger and their other human emotions into their own hands.
You will not turn this problem around in a generation. The so-called Greatest Generation did not foresee this kind of tragedy and outcome when they venerated those such as your actor John Wayne. But little by little it became acceptable to view killing as entertainment on a grand scale, not just in your theaters. And then entertainment became games in which children practice killing to earn a higher score. And you are surprised by the tragedies in the news? You create your reality with your thoughts.
Yes, consciousness is rising. More and more people no longer accept war, no longer accept discrimination in any form. More and more understand the nature of Reality and know that Life is eternal. So understand that those who recently left your earth as the result of a bullet are well taken care of and are surrounded by love. Know that you are as well, but you are failing this experiment you call Life as long as you continue to condone the video games, the television shows, and the movies that glamorize violence and killing.
Guns are not the ultimate killer. Envision a society in which a gun can lie on a table and no one knows what it is for, and those who remember it as a relic of the past cannot imagine using it to harm another. If guns go away, as long as the consciousness exists to use them, the challenge has not been solved. Be the change you wish to see in the world.
You cannot outlaw the viewing of violence, but you can create a culture where it is no longer acceptable to view killing as entertainment. Only when love is emphasized will the quality of your society’s consciousness rise enough so that killing is no longer acceptable.
You are here to learn. To learn what? That life is sacred. Yes, you who are reading these words know this. Now spread the word until the tipping point makes war in any form: on a national scale, on a personal scale, and most especially as entertainment, merely a history lesson.
You are all so very loved. You are Love, but some of you have forgotten this. Do not become inured to your headlines. Only by changing the mass consciousness will you change your world, and change begins in the home and the heart of each man.
Thank you, Suzanne and Sanaya! This is incredibly moving and timely and apt. Bless everyone involved in the Oregon shooting, including the young man who made it happen and his family. I always feel the most for the families of the people who do these things. Grief is hard enough, but grief and love and guilt and shame and notoriety together, all magnified and made inescapable through the mostly anonymous slings and arrows on the Web–who can fathom the pain of it!!?? It seems such a blessing they don’t have to go through a trial in this case! But I have a question for Sanaya. Does reading Agatha Christie, old-fashioned murder mysteries, also lower our vibration, our consciousness? Is it that our literature and movies should treat the death and suffering–of anyone–with more gravitas and respect? Thank you!! With love, Joan
Suzanne, this not only validates your gift, because what you wrote clearly comes from a spiritual perspective, it shows the danger of today’s technology and how it makes us all numb to violence unless it happens on our front door. It is so hard for us from this vantage point to appreciate the love that surrounds the souls taken in Oregon, but it’s nice to be reminded at this time while everything s still so fresh. Prayers to the families left behind to deal.

What a great posting from Sanaya. If only we all lived by what she just said, what a wonderful place this would be.
