In the time of The Model, toward the end of its influence, there was a spiritual movement, but what Ama could see was that it got caught in language that justified behavior, and what was really happening was a cycle of The Model. She could see those spiritual followers of not only religion but the shift as people referred to it as posturing in The Model, in place of staying truly personally curious.

The people in the spiritual used terms that they didn’t understand and limited them instead of expanding them. They would say “I hold space for others,” which sadly signaled to Ama their hunger to be needed, seen, and heard. Instead, to Ama’s ear, this came off as self-importance in place of true support and, more importantly, the connection they so deeply hungered to share with others.

It was a simple change of wording that made it free of self-importance. Ama would point out we used to, “I showed up for my friend.” That statement is positioned that you are there for them; otherwise, you are saying they can’t do it without you.

They were, however, so hungry to be seen and heard that people started positioning how they say things to line up with satisfying the itch. Satisfying their need, but that never lasted long or felt quite right to them. What this created was judgment, which was what they desperately needed to cease.

Ama told people in passing that saying 5D or otherwise limited what might actually be true. That we miss the ability for expansion when we label things or say things we hear from others in place of thinking for ourselves, by challenging what we or others think is true. Ama wanted people to think for themselves purely and truly because she knew if people stayed curious, they’d find their way naturally and powerfully to who they indeed are.
