The Cosmic Contestants.

In our blog post Elite Earth Academy we explored the idea this little space rock we call home might very well be some sort of school for souls to expand their consciousness and raise their vibration. In this article, we will continue to explore that premise.

A meme that proclaims: "Life is filled with illusion pretending to be the truth."

Was there ever a planet with a population that loved games more? We have board games, card games, video games, games of chance, games shows, and “reality” TV programs which like game shows, we play vicariously. Many of these games are designed to imitate things we encounter in life- to teach strategies and life-lessons for things we may experience in the ultimate contest- the game of life. In effect these games are education through entertainment.

It struck me one day that souls might decide to incarnate into the twisted carnival that is life on Earth for the same reason people go on “reality” TV shows or to amusement parks. That is, to face challenges, to test themselves, to learn about themselves, to win prizes or perhaps just to have experiences that are unique to a planet run by psychopaths like The Controllers.

If one examines the different ways people live their lives and the experiences they manifest, one could even conclude that souls incarnate here to play games that feel very real while they are in the physical realm but are actually only a form of temporary entertainment (facilitating permanent education) for eternal energy beings. With that in mind, let’s look at some interesting parallels from well known games here on Earth.

Is there a type of immense selection board in the sky where pre-incarnate souls choose the game(s) they will play on Earth? While everyone alive in a body could be said to be playing the game of life, those who choose to pursue wealth and luxury could be seen to be playing a game of monopoly. Those who incarnate into stressful and difficult situations might be said to be playing survivor. People involved in military conflicts might have selected to play war games to learn strategy similar to a game of chess. Some domestic units with their constant bickering are clearly playing family-feud, and some who choose to have multiple partners might be playing a sort of dating game. You’ve got daredevils who seem to be playing fear factor and ne’er-do-wells who could be said to be playing trouble.

The Game of Life.

In this hypothetical scenario, we are all players and contestants in games that we chose for the purpose of learning from the situations we decide to experience. Our fellow gamers are those who compete with us in our circumstances and encounters. In this way, some souls are learning what it feels like to be a winner and some are being enlarged with compassion by experiencing loss- not to mention a myriad of other lessons along the way.

Some of you may object to this way of looking at life. You may feel that you would never choose a game so difficult and fraught with pain as what you have encountered in your incarnation. I understand this. Having had experiences of both triumph and tragedy in my own life, it’s apparent to me that if someone’s life has been full of loss, heartache, pain and suffering they are brave and heroic souls who have chosen the most difficult, yet ultimately rewarding game due to the soul growth they experience. We cannot fully appreciate the good and beneficial without experiencing the bad and harmful. The breaking of the morning light is most appreciated after having endured a long, dark night of the soul.

I’ve learned long ago that one should not try to dissuade someone from the game they’re playing and the life-lessons they’ve chosen. This contest is important to them, or they wouldn’t have chosen it for this particular life-session. I’d also like to encourage you to see this all from the more expanded viewpoint of your eternal soul. An earth-life is but a moment in your eternal existence- analogous to a thrill ride at an amusement park. It may have it’s moments of alternating fear and exhilaration, but in the whole grand scheme of your never-ending existence, it’s just an amusing moment you chose to have for reasons only you can know.

If we expand our perspective even higher and consider that we are all fractals of Source, individuated into physical form to interact with each other and provide unique perspectives and experiences, we see that it’s all designed to expand consciousness and teach lessons in appreciation. In this way, the game of life is all about the expansion of the capacity to Love.
