Mainstream society teaches us that if we feel guilt or shame, we must have done something wrong in our personal lives - such as is currently being exploited by race baiting.
I argue that there is a deeper, existential guilt born from being in exile which spans all races equally:
- The Spiritual View: Said in myth and symbol, the moment the divine spark was separated from the True Source and trapped in the material world, it experienced a cosmic trauma. The soul feels an inherent, floating "shame" simply because it is trapped in a low-vibrational, flawed body and forced to live by the rules of a false creation.
- The Psychological View: More literally, when you cannot identify the source of your guilt, it is because it doesn't belong to your personal autobiography. It is an archetype from the collective unconscious—the deep, inherited human awareness that we are somehow fractured, incomplete, and separated from wholeness.
It is this shame and guilt which is partly responsible for for the deep level of anxiety in all people that 'something is wrong'. Society teaches us that to overcome this we need a Master to take care of it and look after us.
I argue that this is also wrong and is how we allow power to control us all at scale. It's not that power is evil. It is that we **sin** by turning away from our true divine source and start asking for a King.
