All the years in caring and looking out for others, but also, personal experience of having went through a lot, I have saw a very prominent enemy tactic that is being used against many Zevism.

Life, karmic patterns, negativity, or personal mistakes, will lead to failures or doing certain things that one might not be proud of.

You may have been following a diet, or relapsed into drugs, or done something else. That in itself is a big mistake, but the question should come after, how do you manage this?

Especially after effort is done and one feels like they have lost control, guilt and self loathing might creep itself up strongly, telling you that you have completely failed. Retreating into the path that this failure has come out of, can suddenly try to pull you back in.

For example, there have been Zevism I knew that have been doing wonderfully, then something, a ghost from the past or something, comes to set them back once again. This could be drugs, a bad relationship, a sentimental weakness, anything of the sort.

The enemy works a lot through isolation and building up on what one has made a mistake on. This might sound simple, but it is anything but simple. The enemy feeds a lot through human weaknesses, and they work on these constantly.

When these weakening influences are fought against, they tend to try to fight back and return you to the previous level from which you came. Even after you are long crowned the victor against these, certain influences might still try to creep in your life again until their full elimination.

It's never too late to gather yourself up and continue the fight from where you left of. There is no point to wallow in guilt if you failed once, because the opportunity in most cases arises immediately after to correct from a mistake.

It is only after if one purposefully denies this, that one should allow self loathing and wallowing to take one down the pit, because only if one purposefully loses every battle, one can say they deserve this.

And even then, the pit is as deep as you allow it to become. So if you decide that this is no longer to be the case, then you can truly move out of this.

If one has failed, then one can relate this to others, seek support, and seek inner strength to keep fighting. If you don't want to seek out nobody, then you must privately find peace with yourself, and see how you will manage the lower aspect of yourself and the mistakes it keeps doing, like a parent tries to manage a child.

You must remind yourself why you started to make these changes in your life in the first place. Why are you here? Everyday, this must be reminded to yourself. Change won't come in a day, a week, a month, or even a year. In the JoS we are talking about self transformation, not just change.

The majority of wrong paths in life, can be reversed. Certain ones can be very difficult to reverse. In those that cannot be reversed, then you must try to look at them and understand their underlying patterns, so that you will not do the same mistakes in the future. As life is dynamic, you are affected by the past, but you are not it's eternal slave, unless you decide this for yourself.

Zevism teaches this realization and tells you how you can make this happen. The way is long, but the way from obliviousness to freedom is long, but let me tell you also, very joyous. It's just that few people make the effort. Therefore, most remain captives to their own weaknesses.

You will enter this path as another lower being, and exit this path as another and higher version of yourself.

The Gods have led and empowered all Zevism out of many large pitholes, and the stories of many which I know privately, have told me of the important power the Gods can give you. With their knowledge, anything can be surmounted about personal faults and failures.

But you must be willing and put the effort into it, and if you fight and drop to your knees, then you must muster strength to get up again.

Life is a series of battles, and some might be temporarily lost until there is a final victory to take place. A large part of Zevism is the Warrior path, which is teaching you this, instead of being an idle victim of a wrongly misplaced faith.

When you do a big mistake, or at least you KNOW what you need to solve, the more you wallow in self hating and self punishment, you tell to yourself that you deserve to get punished of this mistake, instead of telling yourself that you actually deserve to be saved from this mistake, and to not repeat it again.

Depending on the size, seriousness, and what this mistake involved, the person of conscience will understand how they need to manage this. Clearly, this post is not about people without a conscience who might be psychopathic and say "Oh, but I am a Zevist I just have to skip any mistake and pretend it didn't happen, because I am advancing".

The opposite here, is the case.

If you have done mistakes, one must rectify them and what this caused, which also leads by itself into healing one's self AND others involved. One has to return, and one has to correct. We are not talking about escapism, we are talking about fixing the wrongs step by step and in a beneficial way for others.

While changing something can look like a long way, it's actually way shorter than the path one takes to collapse and destroy themselves fully under the weight of a said mistake. There is nobody that takes a wrong path, follows it to the fullest, and then looks back and says "Oh, this was definitely great". Everyone ends up in a worse and worse condition.

Above all, one must NOT QUIT! You are moving towards a specific goal, to weed out something negative and to self master.

Failures will happen along the way towards your goals, or your dreams, but we have to stay strong and see how we can work ourselves around this. The best way to manage these, is to just cut short the failures, and immediately try to work on yourself for solutions.

Wallowing to be "saved" from the heavens is not really of use, as any help the REAL GODS provide, is for those who wish to apply this and bring outside their inner GOD. Long and joyous is the battle to make this happen, so be aware and learn how to deal with your mistakes and failures, so that you might walk this path and reach always higher levels.
