It' a great point Mark - I'm glad you asked it. What has our DNA got to do with our spiritual evolution? And simply 'being' in general? We are of course spiritual beings - a soul incarnated. For most people, the lower aspect of the soul is still fragmented within the bodymind and disconnected (to greater or lesser degrees) from the 'higher soul' - that which is not yet infused. The natural purpose of the soul is full integration and embodiment in order to further learn, evolve and grow. So in much of the work we do, it's about focusing on the soul and relinquishing attachments to the physical/emotional/mental/karmic planes so that the soul can act in an empowered, liberated and unhindered way. In natural circumstances, the soul essentially manifests the perfect vehicle through which to learn the next lessons on it's journey. That might be a human vehicle for example. It will have a certain genetic configuration to support that exploration. However if the genetics get tampered with, then it can make the whole integration process more difficult. In some cases so much so, that it can prevent the higher soul infusing. That's happening to many right now. Various things effect our DNA negatively and positively: the food we eat, the electro smog we're subjected to, chemicals in our water, how we infuse our consciousness with judgmentalism (in the media for example). Such things are proven to negatively effect our DNA and make our system less harmonic - so the evolutionary process is that much more difficult. It's clear to me that a variety of changes were made to humanity purposefully to undermine internal harmony - the strength and impact of testosterone in males for example, in the invasive and sometimes debilitating effect of moon-time for women. But all of these are correctable by healthy living in a good energetic environment and by infusing higher light through meditation for example. Open
