10. A message to the young artists who want a better world 

One day, I was walking through my home country in a past life, I say home country because I adopted Russia in my heart and decided to live there repeatedly. I know saying this now will bring recent events to mind, but my memories are from a time when things were so different. Me and my soul tribe decided to live there for a while to plant certain knowledge through our music and literature. We would incarnate in many areas of knowledge, then return to expand into another area or another historical time. Our knowledge expanded throughout the world and many who are listening to these podcasts admire the great Russian thinkers and creators. 

It has always been known to us that one day the situation might be as it has taken place after the first world war, which honestly is one long war that never ended to this day. All that you see happening right now in the world is in one way or another a continuation of unresolved disputes and behind the scene agreements that took place during the first half of the XXth century. A long time ago, some think, still, the powers at play remain, because that is how empires last in this world, the scenery changes a bit but the game doesn’t. Some think that more ancient empires, such as the Roman were a great thing, in a brutal way they did spread people around, displaced entire populations and with that, the cultural exchange took place. Some believe Napoleon was a great hero, others see it differently. 

Before the fall of an era, those in power become blind to how things can not stay the same as they were once the foundations of the so-called empire were set into motion. So where do artists and creators of all sorts fit into the fall of any era that has to go? Artists change the level of consciousness of people, through works of fiction, of beauty, of acid truth seeking, artists and philosophers see beyond. All great thinkers that remained past their times were skeptic of the status quo. Some sweet and loving, some like a storm, devastating the ideas and morals of times that we wouldn't want to bring back. It took revolutionary people in the past a lot of tears, some of joy, believe that, but many tears of revolutionary thinking. Visionaries look at the world and just do not understand why things are considered to be normal if they cause pain and oppression. 

Don't be afraid to feel shocked by things that your family and friends consider to be absolutely normal, it means you are ahead of your time. I came here to explain to you how artists put in the effort to create a new reality in the canvases of their minds, so instead of arguing with those who are not interested in anything we have to say, we create stories, interesting studies, and then we set it out there in the world for those who will match the vibration. 

Even dark creations are faced with rejection from closed ones, the creations of light will not get a different treatment and there is a precious reason. If an artist is faced with pure acceptance in their most inner circle, they will not feel the drive to spread it through the world out there. It is the search for like minds that forces artistic endeavor to fly far from home, it has to fly away from home. If my writings had all been acclaimed by my relatives when I took this role, I would’ve never opened the road I have to others to get red worldwide. Young one, understand that the world had barely built physical roads, and we had only paper and pen to hand write our own copies, or have someone copy for us. 

And still, with no resources at all, there was this point of giving up being understood at our own homes, or by the entirety or our homes, that pushed us to go further. How many philosophers and writers, how many painters have traveled the world in search of creative freedom and learning, in search of better masters? Because home, even when loving and inspiring, home has to become not enough not for the creator, but for the creation.

If you have ideas that are clashing with your beloved friends and people are not interested, be kind, it is sometimes the way of things. Write it down and know that even if no one ever reads, it will be registered as energy. Create an online space where your light can find an outlet, don’t count likes, or subscribers, it is supposed to be about the light you put in the atmosphere. If you cling for the approval of the world as it is now, in a way you are agreeing with the status quo. A true artist creates the future in many ways. Some are meant to be known and famous during their lifetimes, some are meant to build in the invisible arena of energies. 

A true artistry for the light has to be unconditional and it has to know that it talks about what some are not ready to understand yet. That is how it has always been and if you go back to the past geniuses who changed the world, most of them were understood with more clarity from the generations that came. Even the famous, the rich, the ones who were applauded, were understood in more depth long after they were gone. Because they were seeing what could not be seen, yes. And those who were only acknowledged after their passing, they have created from their souls anyway, because they didn’t care about the opinions that came from the precise era they wanted to become more fair and just. 

Be grateful if you have a family member of a friend who loves you, there is no need for everyone to think alike. Share whatever you can share with them and then you share your other perspectives with the whole wide world, not to convince anyone, but simply to find like minded souls that are already out there waiting to communicate with you. Think bigger in time and space and appreciate whoever comes your way the way they come. Not everyone came here to be a healer or an energy worker, some came here to build other things, only God can know why someone is the way they are. 

Not all things are what they seem, it is all so mysterious. Surround yourself with love and light, but light doesn't come in this shape or that shape, this color or that color, light comes from source, and we can not access the designs of certain realities. Precious time has been wasted in trying to mold other people. Put your efforts in loving them and then your art can be created in another space, for other people. 

Tend to the energy of Earth as a whole, put your light out there the same way as if you were creating a butterfly and setting it free. Stop scrutinizing your garden and plant your seeds in the world. That is how we change mindsets, by creating works of art and greater thinking that fly on their own. Trust in how the artists of the past have outlived their rulers by thousands of years.
