Main Article: Responsibility in Positions of Leadership and Authority

This issue of Revelations of Awareness features a question posed to 'Cosmic Awareness' regarding responsibility in leadership and authority. Cosmic Awareness, described as a force that has manifested through various spiritual figures throughout history and is now communicating through trained channels, offers its perspective.

The core message distinguishes between two types of responsibility: one based on the duties of a specific position, and another based on a deeper awareness of what is. The former is characterized by a limited viewpoint focused on maintaining one's position and the structure it belongs to, often leading to the justification of actions, even those that cause suffering. Historically, many entities have sought positions of power and authority, using them to direct large numbers of people into lives of suffering, tragedy, sorrow, loneliness, and death. These positions were created and filled by those who could seize and hold onto power, often justifying the system by asserting the need for a leader.

Cosmic Awareness contrasts this with a new kind of responsibility that is emerging: the ability to respond to urgent needs in one's immediate proximity and time, in a manner that is appropriate and integrates the highest possible forces for harmony. This 'response-ability' is likened to a spontaneous, feeling-level correction, such as instinctively turning a steering wheel when a car skids on ice, rather than relying solely on intellect or planning.

The text criticizes the historical misuse of authority, citing Nazi Germany as a prime example where individuals in positions of power used their duties to justify violations against others, even when it conflicted with their personal principles. It asserts that this tendency is not limited to historical events or specific regimes but is prevalent in contemporary society, where individuals may feel compelled to perform their job duties regardless of their agreement with the underlying principles.

The hypocrisy of positional authority is highlighted, whether in the roles of parent, leader, teacher, or expert. These positions can compel individuals to behave in ways that are not authentic to their true selves. Cosmic Awareness suggests that in the coming age, entities will move into positions of responsibility and authority based on their ability to serve their fellow human beings and the purpose for which the position was created, rather than through force or the maintenance of a rigid structure.

There is a vast difference between a public servant and the leader or authority of the past. While a servant may require certain protections to perform their duties, their actions should be those that give service and are responsive to others. The text posits that if an entity finds it difficult to maintain their position due to jealousy from others, something is 'not quite proper' about the situation. Ideally, when one entity is responsive and responsible, and another wishes to perform an equal activity, a new position or office should be created to allow that entity to also serve.

Cosmic Awareness advocates for a system where there is no need for a single 'king' to be overthrown; instead, there should be opportunities for entities to serve one another and be responsive to needs. This applies to all levels of society, including government, tribes, corporations, and families.

ED'S NOTE: The Unified States of Awareness

The editor's note introduces the concept of the 'Unified States of Awareness' as the government model for the New Age. In this system, power resides at the bottom of the pyramid. The upper levels are advisory, offering suggestions and recommendations for the good of society. Crucially, if those on the lower tier do not like the suggestions or recommendations, they have the power to remove individuals from the upper tier and replace them.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring theme throughout this issue is the redefinition of leadership and responsibility in the context of spiritual evolution and the 'New Age'. The editorial stance, as conveyed through Cosmic Awareness, is one of advocating for service-oriented leadership, authentic action, and a decentralized power structure where the populace holds ultimate authority. It critiques the historical and contemporary models of power that lead to suffering and emphasizes a shift towards conscious awareness and responsive action as the basis for true leadership and societal organization.
