People that are like me—and I like them—we aren’t lost souls. We’re actually the psychospiritually liberated ones.

And to those who are still chained down by inflexible religious strongholds, it might look like we’ve strayed or rebelled. But the truth is, we never actually abandoned the Divine—we just simply broke free from the cages that organized religious structures built around it. This means that people like me, and I like them, we have rejected the institutions that have distorted its essence, where they have turned the sacred into a tool of state-sanctioned tyranny, spiritual colonization, and authoritarian mind control.

So no, we didn’t leave the light behind—we just finally found our way back home to it.

But to those who still insist that we’ve been deceived, just because we’re no longer under the spell of religious conformity, fear-based obedience, or authoritarian doctrine—let it be known: it is not those of us who have embraced our own psychospiritual sovereignty, who have individuated as sovereign emanations of divine intelligence and sacred light, and that have aligned ourselves with the expansive, creative nature of God’s energy and essence, who are following a false light.

It’s actually the ones who are still clinging to rigid frameworks of inherited dogma, institutionalized systems of fear, shame-driven standards of worthiness, guilt-driven compliance with community-approved beliefs, and externally enforced behavioral codes that penalize authentic psychospiritual presence in favor of polished spiritual performance, who have fallen into a distorted sense of alignment.

And when these frameworks are reinforced by expectations to silence one’s inner wisdom and to relinquish their capacity for critical thought, it becomes easy to mistake a prison of theological submission, spiritual co-dependency, and unquestioned loyalty for paradise. But when it comes to true spirituality, instead it asks us to go within to commune with the Divine directly, honor our own higher faculties of thought, and to uncover the divine spark within us that we each carry—not to outsource our connection to systems of rigid religious control that thrive on compulsory obedience, man-made hierarchy, performative reverence, and fear of questioning.

So, if our spiritual liberation makes others uncomfortable, that says more about their own attachment to the spiritual captivity that they are still living in than it does about our own alignment with the light in our own relationship with that energy.

Because what we’ve reclaimed as psychospiritually sovereign beings in our own personal relationship with the Divine, God, Source, Spirit, or Higher Intelligence isn’t rebellion—it’s a deep, internal psychological, emotional, and spiritual restoration on a level that organized religious institutions were never equipped to handle or facilitate.

And that what they call deception, or us falling away, backsliding, or losing our faith, it is often just the authentic spiritual freedom, transformation, and healing that they’re too afraid to seek for themselves—because the light doesn’t demand religious allegiance or institutional approval. It simply wants to meet us where we are, to move through us freely, and to awaken the divine connection that’s unique to us in a personal relationship that was never meant to be mediated by anyone else.
