warning of death

[lovelycreations]

i was in the car and had a feeling i was going to die soon. a commercial then came on and someone said "you know its true." another tv show came on and they said "you're going to die". i was also watching another tv show and they said "you're dying" and "what's the purpose of living a long life if you're miserable."

i have an illness i have digestive problems and i have difficulty breathing. the doctor's are all stumped and dont know what to do.

Digestive problems. Have you tried a gluten free diet?

Several times I've woken up in the morning with six numbers and the feeling I'm going to win the Lottery. I didn't ....

Don't stress yourself, dear soul.

As to your health issues, it could well be an allergy - air fresheners can cause breathlessness, as can some medications, or a dietary issue.
For digestive issues, a strong probiotic is always worth a try.

I hope you find answers - and calmness of spirit.

Well, if it's not gluten it could be just about anything you consume. I not only have celiac but but also have a corn intolerance and I can get sick if I eat any chemicals in the food as well. It could be just a simple preservative in the foods you eat. I suggest a food journal. Write down what foods (listing ingredients) you eat and the following reactions you have. That way you can pin it down.

BTW, an allergy is different from an intolerance.

Seek forgiveness from Jesus Christ.

Then after death, you will move onto a better life where everyday will be filled with life and joy.

From your heart right now, just say 'Please forgive me Lord for my sins'.

Lovelycreations... Aside from your current illness/ailments - have you by any chance been experiencing significant internal/spiritual growth during this time period of your life?

Okay L.C.... When a person endures through significant internal growth and goes through a spiritual awakening - at the latter stages of the process there is a very real sense that one's former identity (the sense of self that was rooted in the infleunce of the physical/egoic mind) is dissolving and fading away. This can create the feeling that you are losing yourself (which is really your old self, your old way of being). In this specific context, it is natural for an individual to experience the impression that one is 'dying', or that there will be an impending 'death'. Sometimes individuals will experience messages/signs in dreams, other times it's just the straightforward impression that it feels like this will be so, or in your case, through synchronicities delivering the message. However, it's important to note that under these circumstances, the perception that one is going to experience physical death is illusory - that's just the way that the physical mind influences you to interpret such feelings. Rather, there is the very real experience of psychospiritual 'death', or 'ego death' - in which nothing happens to the physical body itself, but there is a transformative 'shift' to one's state of awareness (state of being), and the individual transcends his/her former identification with the physical/egoic mind as a source of one's sense of self. So the messages/impressions that one was going to 'die' can be interpreted as symbolic and as a byproduct of one approaching the threshold where conscious identification with the physical body (and physical mind) is risen above (transcended). Here are some relevant quotes...

"However, the spiritual birth does not have to be associated with the death of the body. It can occur at any time in the course of deep self-exploration or even during a spontaneous psychospiritual crisis (spiritual emergency). It is then a purely symbolic event, an “ego death,” or “dying before dying,” which does not involve any biological damage. Abraham à Sancta Clara, a seventeenth-century German Augustinian monk, summed it up in one sentence when he wrote: “The man who dies before he dies, does not die when he dies.” ~ The Cosmic Game (Stanislav Grof M.D.)

"Death is the stripping away of all that is not you. The secret of life is to die before you die - and find that there is no death." ~ The Power Of Now (Eckhart Tolle)

"Ultimately, through the process of spiritual development, we are seeking to transcend the ego, the limited sense of self. This can, however, be a terrifying process for the ego, and for us, because we are so identified with the ego. As we start to move into transpersonal levels of consciousness, the ego senses there is no place for it. The fear of dying that many experience when going through spiritual emergency is largely the ego’s fear of being extinguished. It is very easy, in such extreme states, to confuse psychological or ego death with physical death. Hence the danger of physically dying can feel all too real and we can become preoccupied with our own death." ~ In Case Of Spiritual Emergency (Catherine Lucas)

"As we are clearing these old programs by letting them emerge into consciousness, they are losing their emotional charge and are, in a sense, dying. But we are so identified with them that approaching the moment of the ego death feels like the end of our existence, or even like the end of the world. As frightening as this process is, it is actually very healing and transforming. However, paradoxically, while only a small step separates us from an experience of radical liberation, we have a sense of all-pervading anxiety with impending catastrophe of enormous proportions. What is actually dying in this process is the false ego that, up to this point in our life, we have mistaken for our true self. While we are losing all the reference points we know, we have no idea what is on the other side, or even if there is anything there at all. This fear tends to create enormous resistance to continue and complete the experience. As a result, without appropriate guidance many people can remain psychologically stuck in this problematic territory. Following the experience of psychospiritual death and rebirth, we feel redeemed and blessed, experience ecstatic rapture, and have a sense of reclaiming our divine nature and cosmic status. We are overcome by a surge of positive emotions towards ourselves, other people, nature, and existence in general." ~ The Stormy Search For The Self (Stanislav Grof M.D.)


Let me know if any of this helps or speaks to what you are experiencing...

o my. your subconscious fears are manifesting. Doesn't mean they are true. Don't let the fear control you and your environment, i.e. the messages you are getting. You have the power to change that. You could put up post it notes around your environment that say positive things. Things that make you feel safe and happy. You can change your paradigm into a lovely creation.
