The World Soccer Cup Games, 2026 Some Spitritual Thoughts

In a world grown weary and numb of pervasive evil, the spiritual world can send us rays of hope. Angels and divine beings are seeing that humanity rallies together over international sports and are bestowing grace when a refreshing personality enters world consciousness.

England won the Soccer World Cup semifinals on July 11, 2026 but not before a phenomena, Erling Haaland of Norway, had captured hearts all over the world. His stunning capacities as a striker for the Norwegian team that had never advanced that far in the world soccer cup games are breath taking. A Norse god -like Viking on the field!

His imposing six foot five presence of stunning athleticism is grace in action in a fine tuned body. His splendid sculpted limbs propel him to race horse speeds and gazelle like leaps. He respects and assiduously cares for that graced body with staggering amounts of wholesome organic food he prepares himself with his partner Isabel with great delight. He models goodness for his young son and honors the young children.

As an incarnating soul descending from a past lifetime to this one, it is fun to imagine this remarkable individual and future athlete's pre birth scouting for connection to his family/nation line and all involved making long held karmic contract with his parents to be their third child And the earthly reality of having both parents as outstanding athletes, his father, Alfie a football *soccer' player his mother, Gry Marita a winner of Olympic heptathlon - athletic feats -accomplished in a mortal body that is vibrantly alive in splendid joy of expressing spirit in earthly incarnation in the most magnificent creation of God, the human body. Only embodied on earth can the human spirit discover knowledge, know freedom and learn how to love.

Imagine such a beholding from spirit for Erling of his father's and notably the mother's power and grace filled enthusiastic movements and prowess, no doubt inspiring such love, confidence, and gratitude for action that beckoned him back to earth!

The incarnating soul is attracted to spirit in fatherand the soul of the mother. What anextraordinary mother Erling chose! Gry MaritaBraut. a stellar athlete as Olympic heptathlonchampion for Norway (200 and 800 meter races,200 meter hurdles, long and high jump, shotput and javelin throw). A school teacher, Gry lefther athletic career and devoted herself tocreating home and raising her children, someyears alone, with deep integrity and strong lifevalues. She taught Erling to never resort toviolence, that a win involves an entire team of staff and always respect and support them, and be sincere and grateful especially with young fans. Values for the athletic field and on the field of life, self discipline, hard work, humility and integrity.

"A race of perfect mothers! Is what is needed ." cried Walt Whitman, our American poet sage long ago.

Erling returned his mother's respect for his life by having her maiden name, Braut, emblazoned along with his father's on the jerseys he wears for international tournaments.

We are meant to notice. This is honoring the Holy Sophia flowing through this beautiful mother's heart and her virtuous determination in the values she modeled and passed to her children that would shape their character. Erling credits his passion for the game to his father, his power and discipline to his mother. His step mother from his father's second marriage through which he has two younger half sisters is equally supportive.This honoring and solidarity is what is being asked of humanity now.

As a world we are aching in soul for examples of human decency! We long to trust, to honor, to experience this in others and in self. We have been violated with a clinging skunk odor permeating the planet of the leering sneering countenance of Epstein relentlessly pushed by the media into our souls inner space and imprinted there. It is overwhelming to have to deal with the terrible realization of the far reaching tentacles of this evil driven person and hosts of other subhuman psychopaths of the diabolical cruelty and heinous destruction of children and life are now made known to ever more horrified souls. These are the powers that rule the outer profane world and never more has courage, honor, love and community needed than now at the critical point in human evolution.

The soul cleansing and elevation of our own deeds now, our determination, demonstrated virtue and to counter this to make our lives and homes and souls and especially for our children, protected. honored and sacred in face of the diabolical violation of divine/human life the makes any other "detox "trivial in comparison.

Show us nobility show us what we were meant to be! There have been the outstanding men on earth, virtually every significant soul has had deeply devoted as well as deeply devout dedicated mother.The real men are among us on earth, thank goodness most in quiet roles, selflessly holding families together, communities together, providing strength confidence and know how for those privileged to be in their protective care. They hold humanity together along with millions of sacrificing selfless women holding a thread of higher human values to light a future path for the great experiment of earth evolution? Can human beings, in freedom become co creators of the world we want to be in, honoring life, love and serving the highest good? Our true birthright we are meant to have and determinedly and responsibly work to live, honoring our divine spiritual identity our true nature which is at once holy and mortal and in need of constant transformative work? Men are called to be protectors defenders, examples, and just guides for family, home and hearth, nation and life.

Though Scandinavian culture has its own cultural customs around marriage, let us hope and Isabel will survive the celebrity glitter and make long term caring a reality and especially lifelong dedication to the welfare of their son.

Thanks to Gry Marita Braut for raising a man who has learned to care and stand up to defend decency, human dignity, regard and support of others, model clean living, and honor community Erling is in harmony with higher values and how he lives life. Thousands of children (and adults) will now look up to him as a role model. We can rejoice.

And there is something Erling may know and not share. When he makes one of those 'can't

believe he just did that" incredible scores and slides to the ground, he takes a moment to turn both palms heavenwards as in lotus position prayer, along with raised head and eyes. He is communing and connecting with Higher Source I would guess. For sure it is a gesture of basic human gratitude given before leaping or being lifted up to join in glorious 'we did it' hugs of sharing it all with his soccer community, family, home town, nation, community and the world.
