So either way, if you stoically ignore the negativity in the world, or if you engage in it to tackle the problems, one may still argue that one is influenced by or locked up in negative emotion, either the fear of change, or anger and sadness because of the state of the world. So how do you tell which is true in each situation?A. It is true that to some extent this is an illusion; but the challenge is that we have to live within this illusion.
As I approach this question a little deeper, I hear the phrase "Event + Response = Outcome." The "Event" is the state of our world and the "Response" is how you deal with the state of the world. If you get sucked into a negative thought process, you will become negative and add negativity to the collective consciousness (i.e "Outcome"). If you change your "Response" to something positive like sending love, healing, even smiling or helping someone else, you create a positive "Outcome" that puts positivity into the collective, and also will elevate your own vibration.
When I focus on this, it isn't so much about to ignore or not to ignore negativity, but more about changing your "Response" to have a more desired "Outcome" for yourself and the world. Everyone gets influenced by the negativity out there, so the challenge is to recognize it and do something to dissipate it with something of a higher vibration. I also get it is near impossible to disengage from the world, so you have to deal with it in the best way that serves the greater good. You cannot have darkness where there is light, so every bit of positivity you give out creates a little more light in the world.
And that is all I have for this reading. Thank you. Love and light-

While there is so much division, anger, idiocy and evil in the world that the impulse to be a hermit or holy (wo)man just wrapping oneself in a spiritual state might be appealing, ignoring the challenges of our time would be like burying your head in the sand. There are large cosmic issues like the Event,texploring the nature of man and those from other worlds or dimensions that are either trying to help or manipulate us. Not to engage in the more mundane issues like social trends and politics or ignore the culture being produced, even the bad stuff, would seem to be a life not fully lived and missed opportunity to practice what you believe.
I think to know one's priorities and how to balance all issues or topics that compete for our attention is where instinct kicks in and one should trust their inner guide as to what to engage in. There are many lightworkers out there doing things in every segment of society, one can only get a richer life and fuller grasp by engaging with others who share your values.
