BUSBY

Firstly, so glad you took my last comment the way it was intended ie just having a laugh.

I must admit I do feel very similar to you regarding this spiritual stuff and it certainly does take a lot to convince me of different things but I try to keep an open mind. If I hadn’t of had that OBE and entity problem many years ago I probably wouldnt believe half the stuff that I’ve read and heard.

I’ll check out Bernardo Kastrup. Thanks.

There is another video posted by Ancestral under this thread from Dr Robert Gilbert that I think you will enjoy because he touches on the subjects that we are talking about. It’s very very long and I must say the second half and towards the end is the most interesting.

So, there is this ancient saying that 'the warrior' (each one can be one as we are all fighting one way
or another with something) can't just believe and leave it that way. (It is said that the warrior 'has to believe'.

What do you think about it? :)

Good one. The word warrior has many meanings today, so you can pick and choose. I was wondering the exact same thing once, hence my username... The explanation that made sense to me is that a warrior is a defender of the groups he has allegiance to. Be it a country, a village, or a tribe. More symbolically it is someone who stands for something and will defend it even if there is a cost to oneself. Doesn't mean that a warrior is automatically good, as the ISIS warriors proved emphatically. But you can believe that your country or village are great things yet not lift a finger to defend them at a time of need. I think though that you will HAVE to believe in them to step up at that time willingly. (Of course, most people in any war were forced to step up, one way or another. But the term warrior is as old as the first tribe.)

Yes, thanks for the reply..

My own version says that a warrior has nothing to defend.... A warrior of freedom.

There are values of course running through me.... not sure if they all blend on the word respect.

“The self-confidence of the warrior is not the self-confidence of the average man. The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness. The average man is hooked to his fellow men, while the warrior is hooked only to infinity.” - Don Juan Matus via Carlos Castaneda.

I Think you mean Gary Schwartz. As for me, I get the two people mixed up. I have personally known people who have been tested by Gary Schwartz.

As for Alllison Dubois: I had a teacher who told me he had several students that became mediums. I am pretty sure Allison Dubois was one of them.

Funny you mentioning Gary Schwarz as I’m reading one of his books at the moment called The Sacred Promise. It’s brilliant.

Have you guys read „The Self Aware Universe“ by Amit Goswami?

I love Bernardo Kastrup too. They both are real scientists, who ask the deep questions <3

Btw, Robert Schwartz is a hypnotist and a researcher, not a doctor, that searched all over the world and found
3 amazing (tested) medium/psychics together he works with and he is the author of 3 books ....
Your Soul's Plan, Your Soul's Gifts and Courageous Soul's.

Gary Schwartz has authored 20 exciting books. :) Ex: The Afterlife Experiments

Thank you Neptune for that book! ''In this stimulating and timely book, Amit Goswami, PhD, shatters the
widely popular belief held by Western science that matter is the primary "stuff" of creation and proposes
instead that consciousness is the true foundation of all we know and perceive.''

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru
