Spiritual Awakening

Spiritual Awakening

Hi dear friends and followers, Welcome to my blog and enjoy another one of my older documentation's
Naturally, as a part of being human, we have each our own mystic experience.

I do not mean psychic experiences, telepathic, metaphysical or clairvoyant experiences,... I do not mean experiences of the natural senses-(of the psychic), experiences of the perceptions of an expanded mind.

I mean experiences of reality, of god.

This is not a question, it is a fact, recognized or not we have these experiences in our lives, its a part of being human.

The real question is... do we have these fleeting experiences, or do we live this mystic experience as life.

Often after these experiences, this exhilarating freedom, satiating peace and drunken love, joy and bliss, we turn back to the mind as the ultimate source of authority.

And the mind says, well,,, we need to become that experience, we need to experience that joy, that bliss, that love again. It seeks for it, yearns for it.

My message to you is very simple. That experience has not ended, you are living it now.

And all the looking, all the arrogant efforting, all the hard work, all the questioning, all the answering- merely pushes you further away from the conscious recognition of this fact.

Once there is that awakening into source, god, self, consciousness, samadhi, divine reality, then that awakening is continuing, like it or not, every second of every day of your life.

The same still presence of the eternal, the now, the self, the stillness, silence spaciousness, that you experienced then, is also what you experience now.

Just all so often as we turn this authority over to the mind, we become obsessed with the content of the mind, rather than the nature of the mind.

No matter how philosophical, spiritualized, or loving you become. So long as you turn the authority over to the content of the mind in this way, you will never actually move beyond dualistic conceptual belief- simply because the mind works in duality, in belief and perception. And you are not duality, you are not a belief and you are not a perception. You are one, you are real and you are the perceiver, not the thought-"I am the perceiver".

So simple, and so often so overlooked in its infinite depth, peace and simplicity, as the mind searches all around looking desperately for more.

There is nothing that is not perfect, there is nothing that is not god, there is nothing that is not already whole and complete. And judging yourself, thoughts, situations, others, is tiring and
counterproductive.

Ask yourself this question, and follow this enquiry:- how much of my time and my energy goes into the sustaining and creation of a sense of a self, a story?

how much of your thoughts are taken up with defining me or other good or bad want and aversions
i am this
i need this
i want this
i dont want this
this is bad
this is good
this about "me" is good
this about "me" is bad

And then perceiving all others, and all situations through the lens of the perspective created by these definitions, that is believed to be the real self living from fear, from a lie from a F-alse, E-xpectation, A-bout, R-eality defining who you are in your mind, in terms of the reactions you
choose towards the perceptions you have of others and situations its exhausting, because this "self" is not real, its a thought and it takes a tremendous amount of energy, of conscious attention, to
sustain it.

In this moment, in the stillness behind these thoughts, in the silence under the noises, in the spaciousness of your conscious attention you are already free already holy and whole my invitation to you, is simply to stop stop all the activities of the mind and rest in natural great peace, so coming to know yourself when you live life from this peace you are free soberly, and ecstatically free

If you do not, you live a lie you live a belief, a perception and perceptions and beliefs are limited
whereas reality is infinite if you want an end to it all if you desire peace on earth, love within mankind environmental stability a cessation of human suffering and the final freedom of true spiritual awakening then stop believing you have to somehow earn love, you are love.

Just stop, really stop one second of true stopping will free you from an eternity of illusion no doing, no acting, no learning will ever do this if you stop looking for any state other than the one you are already in you will be at peace-(what it is you really want no matter how many avenues you may take to try to somehow earn or create it).

Peace within is the bearer of peace without peace is the foundation of the expression of the love we are love is the foundation of all of nature and all that is natural nature is the key to the end of human suffering and freedom is already yours to live

Thank you very much again, dear friends, for visiting my blog. Please share your thoughts with us, if you will. have a great Week.

The Spherical Ship ~ vision

The Spherical Ship ~ vision

I can identify with an encounter with aliens but my encounter was during a vision while meditating. I can't really say if it was a physical encounter or an out of body experience, one minute I was floating half way between sleep and wakefulness. I was aware of the room around me yet felt detached from it.

The next minute I can only say that it appeared and felt as real as the room I was sitting in and the only other thing I know was that when I came to I was still sitting in the same position on the couch as I was before it all happened.

Anyway, when I came out of the mental fog on the other side it felt and looked real.

The ship was spherical in shape and gray with a slight luminescence to it, roughly like the picture above except it was perfectly conformal to its shape and had no exterior markings or protrusions. My impression was that it would have been closely comparable to the size of the moon. It gave me the feeling that it was really ancient yet ageless, like it had been there maybe for billions of years.

It was sitting stationary in between realities or dimensions, the exact terminology gets a little fuzzy here. Like undetectable to the unaided eye or any of the most modern sensitive technical devises we have out there. A microsecond out of phase with our time space continuum, or something to that affect was impressed upon me by my hosts.

I felt a slight tingling feeling as I started to go through the outside wall. Within it was like spheres within spheres, each wall turning nearly transparent, misty-like. I would pass through each sphere in the same manner until I entered the innermost sphere, the core of the spherical ship.

In this inner sphere I saw three light beings and to their left was another smaller sphere-like transparent structure floating at the center of the core sphere I and my hosts were in, it reminded of a large misty, or smoky crystal ball.

All around this transparent sphere was a platform made of the same gray material as the spherical walls of the ship surrounding it, like the rings around Saturn. All around there milled about small beings with big eyes much the same as the aliens like the greys that are reported in close encounters except the color of their skin was more of a tan color.

They moved about like busy ants around an ant hill. A couple of them on either side of me were standing there staring up at me. I didn't find them in the least to threatening, almost like children. I wanted to pet them on the head but I couldn't move either arm.

I was directed to approach the spherical-like structure at the enter of the ship's central sphere. Looking down into the transparent sphere

I saw what looked like many tiny, what looked like shadows moving about in a grey fog and as I watched, I realized they had a roughly opaque humanoid shape, but these were not solid humanoid shapes. A thought entered my mind, "souls or spirits?".

On the outside the crystal ball like transparent sphere everything appeared to have finite surface dimensions but within the sphere there were no discernable borders or visible limitation. There were shadows or souls as far as one could see in all directions.

I then saw something else that caught my attention, When a shadow or soul came closer to a certain point. Closer to where on the outside would be the transparent sphere's outer wall, they began to manifest into a more solid appearance until an oval shaped intense white area oppened up before them, then 'for a second' they were solid just as they entered the bright white shimmering oval shape. They were "human! People!"

One of them was a lady wearing a short tunic. Just before she disappeared into the light, she turned and made eye contact with me for a split second we connected and then at the wink of an eye she was gone. There were many shades going through the same process here and there as I stood entranced by this phenomena. I also observed on closer inspection that they were not just souls exiting through the oval shaped white portals, but also *incoming as well*.

My summary:

It appeared and felt to me that the whole emphasis on this experience was the pool of souls which they had conveyed by way of thought transference . The only other closest description to my story of a similar experience that I have read in the past concerning a similar abduction in alien abductions archives, "involving the shades and the pool of souls," was The Betty Hill account back in the sixties.

Origin of Fairies

Folk Beliefs

Dead

One popular belief was that they were the dead, or some subclass of the dead. The Irish banshee (Irish Gaelic bean sí or Scottish Gaelic bean shìth, which both mean "fairy woman") is sometimes described as a ghost. The northern English Cauld Lad of Hylton, though described as a murdered boy, is also described as a household sprite like a brownie, much of the time a Barghest or Elf.
.
One tale recounted a man caught by the fairies, who found that whenever he looked steadily at one, the fairy was a dead neighbor of his. This was among the most common views expressed by those who believed in fairies, although many of the informants would express the view with some doubts.

Elementals

Another view held that the fairies were an intelligent species, distinct from humans and angels. In alchemy in particular they were regarded as elementals, such as gnomes and sylphs, as described by Paracelsus. This is uncommon in folklore, but accounts describing the fairies as "spirits of the air" have been found popularly.

Demoted Angels

A third belief held that they were a class of "demoted" angels. One popular story held that when the angels revolted, God ordered the gates shut; those still in heaven remained angels, those in hell became devils, and those caught in between became fairies. Others held that they had been thrown out of heaven, not being good enough, but they were not evil enough for hell. This may explain the tradition that they had to pay a "teind" or tithe to Hell. As fallen angels, though not quite devils, they could be seen as subject of the Devil. For a similar concept in Persian mythology, see Peri.

Demons

A fourth belief was the fairies were devils entirely. This belief became much more popular with the growth of Puritanism. The hobgoblin, once a friendly household spirit, became a wicked goblin. Dealing with fairies was in some cases considered a form of witchcraft and punished as such in this era. Disassociating himself from such evils may be why Oberon, in A Midsummer Night's Dream, carefully observed that neither he nor his court feared the church bells
..

The belief in their angelic nature was less common than that they were the dead, but still found popularity, especially in Theosophist circles. Informants who described their nature sometimes held aspects of both the third and the fourth view, or observed that the matter was disputed.

Humans

A less-common belief was that the fairies were actually humans; one folktale recounts how a woman had hidden some of her children from God, and then looked for them in vain, because they had become the hidden people, the fairies. This is parallel to a more developed tale, of the origin of the Scandinavian huldra.

Babies' Laughs
.

A story of the origin of fairies appears in a chapter about Peter Pan in J. M. Barrie's 1902 novel The Little White Bird, and was incorporated into his later works about the character. Barrie wrote, "When the first baby laughed for the first time, his laugh broke into a million pieces, and they all went skipping about. That was the beginning of fairies."

Pagan Deities

Many of the Irish tales of the Tuatha Dé Danann refer to these beings as fairies, though in more ancient times they were regarded as Goddesses and Gods. The Tuatha Dé were spoken of as having come from Islands in the north of the world, or, in other sources, from the sky. After being defeated in a series of battles with other Otherworldly beings, and then by the ancestors of the current Irish people, they were said to have withdrawn to the sídhe (fairy mounds), where they lived on in popular imagination as "fairies."
.

Sources of Beliefs

A Hidden People.
.

One common theme found among the Celtic nations describes a race of diminutive people who had been driven into hiding by invading humans. They came to be seen as another race, or possibly spirits, and were believed to live in an Otherworld that was variously described as existing underground, in hidden hills (many of which were ancient burial mounds), or across the Western Sea.
.

In old Celtic fairy lore the sidhe (fairy folk) are immortals living in the ancient barrows and cairns. The Tuatha de Danaan are associated with several Otherworld realms including Mag Mell (the Pleasant Plain), Emain Ablach (the Fortress of Apples or the Land of Promise or the Isle of Women), and the Tir na nÓg (the Land of Youth).
The concept of the Otherworld is also associated with the Isle of Apples, known as Avalon in the Arthurian mythos (often equated with Ablach Emain). Here we find the Silver Bough that allowed a living mortal to enter and withdraw from the Otherworld. According to legend, the Fairy Queen sometimes offered the branch to worthy mortals, granting them safe passage and food during their stay. Some 19th century archaeologists thought they had found underground rooms in the Orkney islands resembling the Elfland in Childe Rowland. In popular folklore, flint arrowheads from the Stone Age were attributed to the fairies as "elf-shot".
.

The fairies' fear of iron was attributed to the invaders having iron weapons, whereas the inhabitants had only flint and were therefore easily defeated in physical battle. Their green clothing and underground homes were credited to their need to hide and camouflage themselves from hostile humans, and their use of magic a necessary skill for combating those with superior weaponry. In Victorian beliefs of evolution, cannibalism among "ogres" was attributed to memories of more savage races, still practicing it alongside "superior" races that had abandoned it. Selkies, described in fairy tales as shapeshifting seal people, were attributed to memories of skin-clad "primitive" people traveling in kayaks. African pygmies were put forth as an example of a race that had previously existed over larger stretches of territory, but come to be scarce and semi-mythical with the passage of time and prominence of other tribes and races.
.

Christianised Pagan Deities

Another theory is that the fairies were originally worshiped as gods, but with the coming of Christianity, they lived on, in a dwindled state of power, in folk belief. In this particular time, fairies were reputed by the church as being 'evil' beings. Many beings who are described as deities in older tales are described as "fairies" in more recent writings. Victorian explanations of mythology, which accounted for all gods as metaphors for natural events that had come to be taken literally, explained them as metaphors for the night sky and stars. According to this theory, fairies are personified aspects of nature and deified abstract concepts such as ‘love’ and ‘victory’ in the pantheon of the particular form of animistic nature worship reconstructed as the religion of Ancient Western Europe.

Spirits of The Dead

A third theory was that the fairies were a folkloric belief concerning the dead. This noted many common points of belief, such as the same legends being told of ghosts and fairies, the sídhe in actuality being burial mounds, it being dangerous to eat food in both Fairyland and Hades, and both the dead and fairies living underground.

One in spirit with Gaia

Hi dear friends and followers, welcome to my blog. I have short essay for you here today, about my own spiritual experiences. Take five, and have a great read

One in spirit with Gaia

Like the legends of Kora, I would say describes very closely my true feelings. Feelings I have found to be deeply rooted within the heart. An energy that can radiate outwards from our shell, in fine tendrils of loving energy that can feel all that lies about me. I am a lover of nature and today on our way to town I was kind of drifted into a mind fog. I remained silent and pensive as I looked out the passenger window. It is cold out, and I could see where the frost had already formed in places. I looked at what green plants that are still thriving to survive the coming bitter cold. I could actually feel what those few remaining green plants were feeling, and my entire body shuddered at that perception. I felt sad as tears rolled down my cheeks. I did so wish that somehow I could give them some of my own life-giving warmth like I would a puppy or a kitten. But as it was, all I could do was to close my eyes and for a moment stilled the mind and meditate to the Great Spirit the heart source. Silently I prayed that Gaia, our great mother's garden be spared from the wrath of the coming winter.

I came out of my emotional and pensive state of mind when my beloved mate called out my name softly. I turned to look while attempting to wipe the tears from my cheeks with the back of my hands so she wouldn’t see the tears. But she knew, and she asked me why I was crying. I hesitated for a second, then thought, my beloved is the only one that no matter how weird the things I tell her might be, she has always had an open mind for me.

I shared with her what I had just experienced, then went on also to telling her about a time when I was only about six years old and my sister was around ten, we were walking through the field in front of the homestead where I grew up. We were picking different pretty colored wildflowers to bring back home for mom as we usually did. I saw this tiny movement in the grass and I bent down and brushed the grass aside with my hands to look. It was a tiny baby mouse. It appeared like it was dying, lying there on it’s back with it’s four little legs sticking up. I picked it up cradling it in my right hand and began to cry. My sister said, not really meaning to be mean, “It's just a stupid mouse, you're too sensitive.” “No wonder the kids at school pick on you, you allow them to see your weekness by your display of sensitivities.”

Ya know what? it doesn't bother me anymore, I mean about the being to sensitive. My Soul Mate understands, just as some of my new friends here do as well. It is wonderful to be able to express your innermost thoughts, feelings and passions with others who have an open mind, they are not easy to find. Showing your feeling without someone saying I am showing weakness by being too sensitive.

Being sensitive, is is part and parcel of an empath, you accept it and move on.
Being empathic entails much more than what I have mentioned here, too much to write in this one blog post. love, compassion and caring for others are just some of the other aspects of empathy. Caring has also proven to be qualities that have saved lives, and has brought forth unsung heroes from the least expected. Usually the quiet shy type.

To make a really make a different in other people's lives can be as simple as planting the right seeds in the right places and pray that all will be for the good of all.
Putting a smile on someone's face is probably one of the best gifts one can give to another. It's called influencing others. No matter how little the influence was, some do remember.

Love

What are Dreams

What Are Dreams

Yes dreams can be weird because mush of what will constitute a dream on any given night will be a mixed bag of what you experienced through the day.

Yes dreams can be weird because much of what will constitute a dream on any given night will be a mixed bag of what you experienced through the day. If your day was chaotic your dream will be chaotic and disconnected, not making any sense. If your dream was pleasant then your day may have been ordered and pleasant.

I also believe that some dreams could also be out of body experiences. Or possibly just a way for the conscious and subconscious minds to communicate on an astral plane to disconnect in an attempt to escape from a stressful reality. I believe that much of our dreams are derived from memories of past experiences as well as what the infinite potentials of the future may bring as well. Some dreams are prophetic while others are of past events from this present life, or just as possibly an undetermined number of past lives.

If our soul memory has stored every bit of information from past experiences since the birth of time, can you imagine the field day our subconscious memory could have with all these memories to draw from? Even just from one life time? What is a soul? One analogy that comes to mind, is one brain cell connected by intergalactic neural pathways to an infinity of other brain cells, the collective oneness within the consciousness.

I have occasionally wondered if maybe we are manifesting something from our own minds seek a concept, that our minds can process to gain some understanding through our own impression which we can grasp and process into a form that our minds can accept. What ever this phenomena in our dreams is that we are confronted with will then take a form in a diminished capacity from it's true form, Because if we were to truly see these beings an entity in it's completeness form we would just simply not be able to understand what we are confronted with.

So therefore we would not see them, If we are not ready to see them then we will not see them yet. The veil is not only thin, at times it is transparent.
