Nah. I think most people either like me or are indifferent / neutral about me.

That's incorrect. I do get along fine with the average chap.

you wonder why after all the years of effort in self-improvement... nothing has changed

Actually, my life got better.

- in fact you gain less respect now from others than you ever did ... has this happend to you?

Nope. I get more respect now from others. I do care less about whether I get it or not.

If so, I want to tell you someting - the average (normal) man is a BLACK MAGICIAN. Yes, thats right you heard me correctly.

In a way, I agree.

Perhaps not black magicians in the way you would normally think of it - but in a sense that is exactly what they are because they will try to force you into accepting their limited views on life and their unhealthy and unspiritual live-styles.

Oh, you don't have to accept any views if you don't want to.

So, why would they do this? Here: let me explain...

Not satisfied with their own miserable lack-of-connection-to-spirit lives they can only find solace in their selfishness. But of course the average person doesn't want you to KNOW that they are selfish., they PRETEND to be loving, kind and generous. But underneath they are self-serving and shallow...

Mmmm, I guess that depends on the kind of person who's "average" in your reality.

I don't know what kind of people you typically attract into your own reality with your own thoughts.

Now, when YOU come along, INSTANTLY they see the joy and light in your eyes and STRAIGHT AWAY they are jealous and ANGRY. [Why don't THEY have any happiness and what makes YOU so special is their immediate concern.]

Hmmm. No I don't think so. I don't see many jealous or angry people around me.

...You must understand that the average (normal) person - (a percentage that you don't want to even imagine!!!) is coming from SEPARATION CONSCIOUSNESS. Therefore, according to his/her mindset there is not enough to go around and EVERYTHING must be competed for. Thus, they think that a happy successfull person is a bad thing for them and a person in pain and suffering is a good thing for them.

I disagree. I think that most people prefer to be around a cheerful, happy, successful person. In contrast, it's less fun being around someone's who's in pain and suffering.

The other problem is that (especially as they get to know you) they will start to feel insecure. Because they will see how intelligent and aware you are and they will see this as a threat.

This could be true in some cases. However, it really depends. My boss loves intelligent people, for instance. Because he knows that they will know how to do a good job.

[They don't want you to see through them and reveal them for their ugly and selfish natures.]

I don't have the habit of exposing people's flaws, even if I do see what their flaws are.

So naturally they will try to cut you down.

Nahh. If you're nice and helpful to people, most of them will treat you in the same way.

Also, the more they see your original hobbies and interests and you refusal to accept the social norm the more infuriated (and jealous) they will become.

I really have to disagree. I pursue many different hobbies and interests and I don't notice that anyone is infuriated or jealous because of that.

They are jealous because they themselves are gutless cowards - hiding in their pretty masks - unable and unwilling to do anything but follow the herd mentality.

Normally sheep are quite happy to be sheep.

Deep down they wonder if theres something more to life but they just don't posess the courage or the know-how to act in any other way.

Well then, they might love you for being their inspiration.

The more they get to know you - the more dangerous it gets --- They will try EVERY trick in the book to bring you down. They might even try to KILL you.

You gotta be kidding. Or insane.

Make no mistake about it. [Look what happened to Jesus.]

His death was His own game plan. Remember?

So, on a positive note what can you do?

The main point of this post is what I am about to tell you here:

YOU MUST LIVE ALONE OR WITH OTHER WARRIORS.

Oh. Is that it?
