I really should! I have felt that feeling of inner knowing before and in those moments, my beliefs felt truly unbreakable! I would meditate and receive amazing answers and all of it was just through knowing. I also felt an intense feeling of warmth and love. Maybe that's the space I need to be in! I noticed whenever I'm in a more grounded and positive state, I don't worry about such things. Thank you so much! |

I remember reading a few parts of the bible, but I guess I never looked into the writing or creation of it. That's a big thing to think about too! I realize that I give myself more questions than answers because I don't look at where things came from. You gave me some new ideas and questions to ask myself and I thank you for that because now I might be able to truly understand things for myself. |
Hi,
Going with your initial question....consider this... why believe in anything others have said or written...of course, all of it is still in you, ha! Rather, Be still, sit in quiet...all disturbances out of the way. Do this daily - set your intention as you find your comfortable place to sit. Think what it is you want - the usual is peace, perhaps...clarity? Understanding? Once the mind is still (still like most can not imagine), so much will be shown to you inside. :) There will be no reason to believe in anything - you will know now. This doesn't happen overnight, mainly because thoughts may take awhile to be quieted. You'll figure it out if you really would like to know things. You may be led to some books of inspiration you have never known about - guiding you a bit and read them with more understanding...what a wonderful adventure this life of learning is! :hug3: |

GoldenEmbers, here's my view of your experience for what it's worth:
There is one uncreated, infinite source. Call it God, source, the universe or whatever you will. It is infinite and completely beyond the constraints of created attributes. When communication occurs between the created finite and the eternal uncreated infinite, it usually comes cloaked in the form of creation in order to make it comprehensible to our finite minds. Some enlightened people do catch rare glimpses of the uncreated infinite without the created mediator, but it is beyond our comprehension to describe it. Hence St. Paul's famous quote "eye hath not seen" etc. Anyway, early on in the history of humanity, humans imagined these interactions to be carried by celestial winged beings known as angels, which literally just means "messenger". This concept has become embedded in the collective consciousness, and so when people hold any sort of intercourse with the uncreated infinite they typically imagine they're talking to these angels. Similarly, when people see demonic spirits they see them in innumerable different forms, depending on whatever form the person's imagination assumes to be the most horrible. Unfortunately the human mind's capacity to imagine all forms of terrors seems to know no end, while our capacity to envision truth, beauty and light is severely limited - hence we tend to see limited varieties of angels but endless species of demons. I guess the human mind finds the winged angel to be an appropriate symbol to represent celestial wisdom, but the rather cartoonish concept of a guy in red pyjamas on his way to mulch the garden doesn't really suffice to express the full spectrum of terror. :biggrin: ANYWAY, you clearly have some anxiety about the path you've chosen, and your anxiety has manifested itself in the form of an evil spirit guide. Like all created visions of the uncreated, it's purely your mind attempting to translate non-form into form. As evidence, note that the people who have these experiences always seem to be people with some degree of religious anxiety. All of this is to say, don't be concerned and you are safe. :smile: |

the things you are afraid of, all of them, do not originate from the highest source of all. that includes fear of hell and all else you mentioned. the battle scarred soul knows these things having wrestled with them and come out a little into the light of paradise, which children are kin too. Yes, the battle scarred soul is kin to the innocent one. Now that is a relief of pure joy. But do there exist the darker beings. Yes, and from them come the obstacles to overcome. They are untrustworthy and to use an extreme example people messing around with the occult are gonna get their *** in trouble here. The key is discernment and its not so easy, do not worry though, stand tall within yourself (lol as Jesus would say get up and walk! You see the spiritual sense of that?) |

Heaven and hell are states of mind. A positive mind is a heavenly state of mind and a negative one, a hellish state of mind. Positivity is being a good soul, being kind to oneself first and also others, being strong willed, confident, a fighter, being a good soul and recognizing that all are One, being content, happy what u have, relaxed and at peace. You can react to negative events in life with Truth. Ie, if someone is bad to you, see them as God/ Truth ie Nothing. Avoid negative and bad people and surround yourself with positive people if possible. The truth is that heaven and hell is an illusion as really there is Nothing, no image no form, all is just an illusion, it’s just a game to discover Truth and experience pleasure and pain. If you practice Truth, these beings can’t come near you as the light in the game is too strong and you will vibrate at a higher frequency than them. Ignore them and live your life. Slander and bull**** are just negative beings trying to fool you into sinking down to their frequency and level of unhappiness, you need to accept that even those demons deserve their pain, ignore them and continue with your life. |

Awesome post! Just wonderful I really enjoyed that. Thank you! :hug3: |
Weird
So I don't know. This is probably an update to this entire post, but I honestly came back here not expecting to see this post. What I mean is, I had completely forgot about it. Well, now for some reason, I decided to log in to tis old account. It's been months since the posting of this and I completely forgot it existed. Even the account.
And it is so strange! I came back here at the right time because I come with the EXACT same set of questions I had asked before. It seems someone is trying to show me something, but that's only because I asked him/her/them to. Sometimes and especially now, I would look up to the sky at the horizon and just internally say, god or whoever you are, if you exist please prove it, reveal to me who you are. That's when I started seeing major references on billboards, youtube accounts, pins on pinterest, hearing things on the news about jesus or just hearing his name. In one of those particular incidents of looking up at the horizon, I was worried about everything in my life and was crying. Well, when I got home, (I live in the mountains),I was just taking a walk out on the front of the property and I saw a huge almost fireball (which I latet learned was a meteor and a part of a meteor shower going on on the 28th and 29th of june. ) that pulsated. It was huge and shot through the sky just before it dissappeated. It was seconds that this happened. Somehow I was on the right part of the property, looking at the right part of the sky, in the right direction at the right time. Like god was showing me he existed because I asked. Not only that, just recently, I've started trying to pray and read the bible. I have bipolar disorder and ussually, I can't do anything because I'm so depressed. When I started all of this, that changed. I was on top of doing chores every day, I took good care of myself and over all was a different person. It shocked me. I can't say I've completely turned to jesus, but I am definitely comsidering it. I still have that fear of hell, but It's not as bad. Inalso want to note, that as soon as I started seeing jesus' name, I sincerely asked him to show me it was him and that he could work in my life. I think I got exactly what I asked for. I don't intend to change anyone's belief or offend anyone, this is just a sort of update. Thanks for reading! :smile: |
