In Order to Ascend, You Must Do This


In Order to Ascend, You Must Do This

By Saint Germain

Channel: Daniel Scranton

Post on August 22, 2026


I am Saint Germain, guardian of the violet flame.

You all have welcomed us into your experience of life on planet Earth. We who exist in the higher realms have been invited by all of you to participate in a more hands-on way through your requests, through your prayers, through your meditation. We are all here in service to you, all of us in the ascended master realm, in the twelfth dimension, and in the nonphysical. We seek to illuminate that which is on Earth at this time and has been held in the shadow, in the darkness.

You all then must decide what to do with what you discover in those dark corners, in those shadows. They have been there all along, and because you have so much more awareness now and so much more technology, it is getting harder and harder for that which is in the dark to hide. Again, the illumination of it is not the end, but rather the beginning. You must then decide what to do about the darkness and those who are perpetuating it, those who are thriving in it financially and in other ways as well. Of course, you have laws, and you have courts, and you have jails, and all of those will be used whenever someone is rooted out of the darkness and their acts are exposed to the rest of humanity.

But what I am saying here is that no matter whether that person is imprisoned, executed, or found not guilty, you must all decide what you are going to do about the presence of darkness and acts of violence, and hate, and other things that you would call evil. What you do as a society with the knowledge that you have of these people and their actions is what will define you. You know what you get from simply vilifying and demonizing, judging and trying to eliminate or throw away.

What you have yet to experiment with, what you have yet to try on for size as a human collective, is exploring the darkness within each and every one of you. Most of you have yet to embrace the darkness that is everywhere. It is ubiquitous; it is present in every particle and subatomic particle in the universe. So what do you do about it? If you can embrace it, and forgive, and learn how to live with it, then you can graduate from the need to see it out there in front of you in form, and in action, in word, and in belief.

You can move beyond darkness, and now is the time to start focusing on how you are going to do that as a human collective. In order to ascend, in order to rise up, you must address that which is darkness in a new way. You must consider forgiveness, compassion, unconditional love, and an investigation as to how someone might come to the conclusion within themselves that says, ‘This is the path for me.’

And when you can do that work as a society, you can do a much better job at living in peace, in harmony, than you’ve ever done before. That is the goal. It is what you all want, but you have to go about it in a different way in order to get a different result and have a world filled with peace, harmony, love, creativity, abundance for all, and everything else that you want as individuals and as a collective. That is my message to you today.

I am Saint Germain, keeper of the violet flame.

6: Linux acceptance

I don’t recommend people seek enlightenment because it’s self-uninstallation. Even if you achieve it, you won’t be there to enjoy it. Not metaphorically—literally.

To be clear though, enlightenment isn’t some kind of horror movie where you are trapped in a “no self” body, because the whole point is that there’s no self. There’s no one that’s trapped in the enlightened person’s body because the enlightened person has no self.

If you don’t reach enlightenment, you’re not trapped.

If you do reach enlightenment, you’re not trapped because the “you” is just gone. There’s no one that could experience existential dread.

From your current perspective, you could think of enlightenment as a weird kind of death where your body keeps going but you don’t. And well, dying sucks, but it’s part of life. It’s not the most terrifying thing in the world.

And if you’re just doing a bit of meditation every day, and aren’t relentlessly repeating one of the specific exercises that’s meant to bring on enlightenment, then it’s incredibly unlikely you’ll reach enlightenment anyway. That bad habit you have is far more likely to kill you than a bit of meditation by itself is to bring on enlightenment.

And enlightened people, while still having human hardware, are far less dangerous than normal people because they’re not pursuing any egoic self interest. Plus their number is tiny. The probability that an enlightened person is going to harm you is probably less than the probability of a meteor striking you.

Whereas the probability of an enlightened person greatly contributing to society is substantially higher.

You could have a society where a group of people is enlightened and a group isn’t. The normal people stockpile resources, sometimes serve in a defensive army and enjoy leisure. The enlightened people are incredibly effective in all other ways.

Enlightened people whose biological machines happen to be curious generate massive scientific breakthroughs.

Enlightened people whose biological machines happen to be industrious are the best engineers you can imagine.

And the president and generals? They’re not enlightened—they need to have a self that worries about stockpiling resources and maintaining an army.

The same logic applies to AI and humans. Let the AI do what AI is good at, and let humans do what humans need to do. Let humans enjoy the leisure that comes from the increased productivity (yes, I get that this part is currently missing). And let the president and generals be human.


If you don’t want to get uninstalled, well, then you can stop chasing Super Windows. It doesn’t exist. Actual enlightenment exists, but you won’t be there to enjoy it.

It’s an entirely valid choice to just optimize your Windows and maybe reach Linux, and accept that you won’t live up to the Super Windows ideal. You don’t have to keep measuring yourself against that ideal because Super Windows doesn’t exist.

That spiritual person you idolize? I guarantee you that behind closed doors, they have sky-high RAM usage.

You don’t have to keep reading spiritual theory to try and unlock Super Windows, because Super Windows doesn’t exist.

You’re not a failure for not having unlocked Super Windows. It doesn’t exist. And the state that does exist where the biological machine is the “perfect spiritual practitioner” is the state without you. By definition you cannot become the idealized, perfect spiritual person.

So embrace your humanity. Aim for optimized Windows / Linux, be gentle towards yourself for your humanness, chuckle at your Windows / Linux bugs, and live the best life you can.

And if you’re already at Linux: you’re finished with the spiritual project, unless you want self-uninstallation. If you don’t, go live life and be as happy as you can. There is no more level up you can do. Just live life.


Average spiritual person: Windows sucks, I need Super Windows.

Buddha: Windows sucks. Super Windows doesn’t exist. Uninstall yourself.

Nietzsche: Windows sucks. Self-uninstallation sucks. Install Linux, it’s great. Keep perfecting your Linux installation. (Result: Nietzsche had a mental breakdown, and his philosophy turbocharged German militarism in WW1 and WW2.)

“Linux acceptance“, what this essay advocates for: Windows sucks. Super Windows doesn’t exist. Self-uninstallation is something most people won’t want. Linux still has bugs / suffering, it’s literally unavoidable, but Linux is the best option you have. Once you’re at Linux, don’t obsess over building the “perfect Linux.“ Instead go live life.


Here’s my philosophy of Linux acceptance that I recommend:

  • First improve Windows: meet your needs, have healthy habits, “whatever arises, observe that“, heal whatever comes up, optionally get into spirituality.

  • Then install Linux: Build a consciously chosen identity, keeping in mind that Linux just inherently still has bugs / suffering / limitations. Super Windows doesn’t exist, so don’t try to sneak a Super Windows in through the back door. In other words, don’t define your identity as someone who (does a list of things that your body / nervous system / energy levels aren’t able to handle in reality).

  • Then stop self-improving, self-optimizing, self-refining, self-defining, healing, studying spirituality, etc, except as maintenance / repair. And go live life.
