and to realise more of their intentions. You will be a light and a beacon and you will be letting your light shine for every man and woman. When you let your light shine you will be giving them permission to let their light shine. As that happens, the world as we know it will change.

      “The next evolution for mankind will be for people to become more focused on who they are. To awaken to the reality of the fact that they are the Spirit, which is God, which is life? To awaken and create a new world and a new Nirvana now. You can only do this by waking up yourself. You can’t change the world by changing it externally. Yes, you can go out and feed people and clothe people, but we need to get to the root cause of all this pain and suffering, which is in the world. The only way you can do this is to get in touch with yourselves and get to know ourselves. Follow the path that the self has for you in life. When you follow your own inspiration then you can touch others and help them to awaken. Effectively, you are the light and, by touching someone else’s life, they become the light also.

      “As consciousness grows on planet earth, then everything will change – everyone will move on in consciousness. There will be no need for hunger, starvation, poverty, injustice, wars, struggle, or effort. There will be no need for any of that. You just need to get back to who you are at a deeper level, which is life, which is Spirit. You need to get back to knowing that you have a father, who is the creator and has put all of this energy inside you. You must understand that the father always looks after his son or daughter and provides for them, feeds them, guides them along the best path and teaches them the best things for their existence. To know that will change everything and lead you to paradise.”

      Ethan thought about what the voice had told him and recognised its truth. On this island of Koh Samui, he saw how the commercial side of life co-existed with this deeper sense of self. The wealth and abundance on this island was pure bliss. When you looked into the crystal-clear waters that surrounded the island, you could see straight to the seabed. Ethan realised that, when he looked deep into these waters, he was looking into himself with more clarity than ever before. His time in Bangkok had been very different. There the water of the river which dissected the great city was dirty and polluted. It seemed to reflect the dirt and clutter of his mind so much that he couldn’t see who he really was.

      “When your mind is clear, just like the sea around this island,” the voice told him, “then you will be able to see all the beauty around you. You will begin to finally see yourself and, as you do so, your world will begin to change. You will experience Nirvana here on earth, which is heaven.”
