Why I am here in this forum

[Carnelian2]

You could say that synchronicity is what led me here. I was trying to sign up for a couple of social networking sites and the confirmation e-mail kept on getting stuck/not reaching my inbox. Their own tech support did not know what to do, so I had given up.
I then did a reading for myself, which raised a number of questions and started to look for answers in the various forums. Then I came across this one, where you guys have had similar issues.
In the end, I used my GMail account for the social networking sites, for which I now have access, and I am a new member here!

Call that synchronicity? - certainly one of those seemingly unrelated things that form a pattern.

Welcome to the forum ! :)

Kind of a cool feeling isn't it? I hurd a qoute once, "let your feet guide you" it really stuck and in ways i live by it. I learned to pick up the little signs to help me on my journey. If someone were to ask me where i am going. I think I would say, i don't know, ill let you know when i get there.

Welcome to spiritual forums. It is what you believe that matters.

I would imagine you’re here for the same reasons the rest of us are here. You have experienced something so profound and supernatural that you can’t yet explain it. Not only can you not explain it, but those within your orbit have difficulty or are unable to explain it themselves. I would also guess that only individuals that have experienced this kind of connection are the ones that understand it, or are at least attempting to understand it.

This sounds beautifully elitist to me.

It is, but it's really the reason why any community or group forms in the 'real world' or online. Something happens that is beyond your understanding/comprehension, we seek out other people with shared experiences who can lend guidance or advice, and then a community forms. Could be spirituality, could be old VW's; doesn't really matter what the subject is, it's the same basic drive/desire.

There is a contradiction in the requoted text which hinders, even stops progress. I am only going to make a counter statement. Those who have understood the experience can describe it, explain it, and understand the conditions that lead to it AND can 'instruct' others how they can achieve the same.

IOW there is no mystery surrounding it. All is known, for centuries if not millennia. The process is understood, practiced in places all over the world and the nature of the result is known. Those who say otherwise practice an elitism for whatever reason they may have.
If you do not get a precise, complete and entirely satisfactory answer from the people around you then you are moving in the wrong circles.

Like Dogen said "There is nothing hidden in this world."

Old saying :birds of a feather flock together. That's probably why you are here. You were looking for someplace or community forum that had interests, beliefs or presence of mind as you have and low and behold here you are. I feel this is why I am here. I don't want to try and fit in with closed minded people that because of their lack of research think I am an idiot that will believe any snake charmer that comes along.

To closed mined people I go with this quote. "It is easier to fool someone than it is to convince them they have been fooled" by Albert Einstein. Also " a closed mind is a terrible thing to waste" by unknown.

This is the basic premise of law of attraction.
Expressing your self will be easiest in a places where others express in a similar way you do, this makes it the path of least resistance.
That's why you are here
