The Upside is not readily apparent to almost anyone, but a few here and there can be seen smiling, and beaming over their Great Good Fortune for having been born into a human body and alive at this time, where they can be a personal witness to Life-on-Earth's struggle to create consciousness in a very small and select species we have named Homo Sapiens Sapiens - that subspecies of Homo Sapiens that includes all modern races and who are presumed to be "wise" (an almost laughable suggestion).
Since our beginning - tens of thousands of years ago - there have been humans who knew about this struggle, and termed it The Great Awakening, or The Enlightenment (and other things, including "going somewhere", like Valhalla, Heaven, Paradise, Shambhala, and other mystical places). These "groups" (loose assemblies) of humans striving to become People - that is, fully Human and fully Awake - were always attempting to "spread the word" around the larger community in which they lived (their "masses"), for the obvious reason that they understood an Awakened populace is not a Dangerous populace (whereas the opposite is always true - a populace that is asleep is dangerous!)
These Groups of People, were the first "Esoteric Parties" - which, over time, has necessarily DEVOLVED (due to the pervasive sleepiness, and stupidity, and laziness of the masses, AND the continuing failures of those very parties that have never been quite able to accomplish their primary AIM) into what are now called "Political Parties" in the more civilized parts of the planet (whereas the less civilized parts have always been RUN and OVERRUN by the most powerful, and usually cruel tribes, gangs, factions, etc., and other less coherent gatherings of angry young men and their families). But again, it was always to control the masses - the sheeple in every generation.
Esoteric Parties - of which Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Shinto, Sikhism, Taoism, and Zoroastrianism are the better known versions (and if you don't see yours, go ahead and add it now... like Fourthway, Advaita, Kabbalah, Scientology, and so many others) - have ALL been massive failures, just as the Political Parties have been. That is, their primary stated AIM is to awaken (or "save") the world - which is impossible of course - though the secondary AIM is simply to control the masses and civilize (or "enslave", or worse "exterminate") them, which has been only moderately successful. But LOOK AROUND FOLKS. Do you really see evidence of a world of humans that is becoming more Intelligent, more Kind, more Gentle, more Free, more Conscious, more Aware, more Human, or any of that? (Remember, anecdotal evidence is statistically meaningless.)
The Originals, perhaps only a hundred or so way back then - the First People - realized that all humans are ONE, and ONLY ONE, and there are no "individuals", just parts of the WHOLE LIVING SOUL, that is Life-on-Earth. Humans today don't UNDERSTAND this, though some may be able to give lip-service to it, but they are not the descendants of The Originals. They are merely offshoots of the Esoteric Parties, trying to "spread the word", and failing.
Consider: membership in The Originals is earned by Action, not spouting Lip-service to ideas passed down from the old, failed, boring, questionable at best, and worthless at worst Religions, Teachings, or any of the Esoteric Parties.
First, GET FREE of all of them.
Second, GET MORE FREE, because this process takes quite awhile!
But, it is going from the foggy, dim, and
confoundingly BORING WORLD of the Humans (Sheeple),
to the Clear Mind and Heart of The People,
which is STILL a very small Group of Friends.
