Dear Marianne, this may sound like a chide but it's not. I think you have fallen into the same position as many who have had some form of enlightenment and that would be megalomania. It seems to happen to everyone who starts this in the way you have. It's a symptom if you will. You attain what you believe is a wider view of history and can see more clearly than other because your looking at the future and think your the one who is creating it. Your not really seeing the future just your logical view of what it could be. You can prove this by the fact things don't always turn out as you planned. The point of enlightenment is not to save the world, it's to find out who you are and the rest falls into place, otherwise your just standing up there raving about the fact your sure of what you know and that feeling comes and goes with your imagined identity. The louder you yell the further that identity goes away. Until you know it this will continue to happen to various degrees of disappointment until you become so depressed you again seek enlightenment. Who you are is something quite real and once you become aware of it things change in a very real way because who you are is also what you do. I can tell you who are but you still need to have the enlightenment not only to understand it but to sustain it and that is just the first step.

I think Pisillo should investigate the concept of 'SERVICE' and the role it plays for individual & collective enlightenment on this planet of ours.
Some quotes are provided below to stimulate some interest in this concept, and hyperlinks are also provided for those who are 'enlightened' enough to have the attitude of 'open minded and thorough investigate first' before passing a judgement.
Sayings of Dr. George King
New Age
“The Aquarian Age, with its emphasis on improvement of the conditions for the mass of humanity, demands the metaphysician to spend his time in service among men rather than isolating himself from mankind as he has been recommended to do throughout the past centuries in order to enjoy personal bliss. As the Aquarian experience cycle advances, more and more emphasis will be placed upon service in order to improve the educational systems and living conditions of the majority.”
The Three Saviors Are Here!
“Many of you are undoubtedly familiar with the mass of Metaphysical literature which is being published, just lately, about the New Age. Most of these publications seem to give the impression that the New Age will be built easily by man, and thereafter, he will enjoy tax and work-free conditions for the rest of his lives. Dear readers, the New Age has to be earned.
“The New Age has to be built by sweat and toil and Spiritual dedication.
“The New Age will be the foundation of true enlightenment of mankind and therefore must be built by the enlightened.
“The New Age will not be a respecter of persons, color, class, creed or even religious beliefs for that matter.
“Throughout the past few years, the Master Aetherius has repeatedly told us that the New Age will be built by those Spiritual pioneers with courage, determination and complete loyalty and devotion to the cause of Truth and Spirituality – not by the armchair theorists, or by the 'baby-patting' emotionalists – far from it.”

Quotes From The Cosmic Masters
Service
"Service is the Great Key, the great Yoga, the great Practice, the great Christianity, the great Religion. The greatest deeds that you can do in these days."
The Master Aetherius
"Serve - and you will become Enlightened, Serve - and you will be practicing true selfless Love, Serve - and the mighty power of Kundalini will rise in natural, unforced fashion and open the chakra jewels in your higher bodies, - and you will be standing on the verge of the Initiation into Adeptship."
Mars Sector 6, The Nine Freedoms
“A thousand years ago the Great Key was Meditation in the Silence. Today, it is Service in the noise, Service in the clatter, Service in the foulness, in the smell, in the ignorance of mankind.”
The Master Aetherius
“Service is the result of applied Spiritual logic. It is the lasting flower in the garden of Enlightenment.”
Mars Sector 6, The Nine Freedoms, February 19th, 1961
“One person who is rendering true Spiritual SERVICE, not self delusion, but true spiritual SERVICE to those who need it, is worth ten who retreat from the suffering of others in order to bring about a state of joy and peace within themselves. ”
Mars Sector 6, The Nine Freedoms, February 19th, 1961
“Decide upon your road and do not take the little roads leading from the main paths of service. Service is difficult. It is great. It means self-sacrifice. It means a greater, longer, surer step towards God realization. Forget not this, not ever. ”

I'm not an enlightened person, but in my humble opinion Marianne is on of those people who have embraced the concept of 'SERVICE' and most importantly she has also addressed a key issue - 'The Spriritual Energy Crisis' - by embracing the power of prayer.
