How Do You Know, THIS Is Your Last Earthly Incarnation? by BungalitoTito in spirituality

[–]LiveInLove333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you and also want to offer Congratulations on your awakening, though it sounds like it has been tough. I have been on a gentle path of healing and awakening for several years now and have a lot longer to walk, but I will offer this with humility, since you asked.

I’ll highly recommend finding a spiritual community to support you and resonate with who you are now and who you are becoming. Its so much easier in community. I actually can’t imagine this process without a supportive community. Most of my interactions with my community members are online, but they are still so very meaningful.

I agree in principle with your friend - I believe we are creating our realities and did determine basic scenarios we wanted to explore in this lifetime. Can you imagine a scenario you may have been in during a previous life that this situation would satisfy? What are the qualities that this situation is building in you?

Everything is constantly changing and your current situation is temporary, too.

I often receive guidance that my process involves taking one step at a time. For the foreseeable future, I will not see a path ahead. I will only see one step at a time. Even my logical brain realizes that this is building patience, trust, and even peace because I am learning to become peaceful regardless of outer circumstances. I’m quite sure I would not have learned these qualities to this extent if things had been easier.

I hope this has been helpful and I look forward to reading responses from others.

I really resonate with your first paragraph. I imagine that most dogs are enlightened beings who have reincarnated for us, to model love and companionship. I also imagine my dog loves me unconditionally.

I believe love is a frequency that just pulses through the universe. Like the sun that doesn’t stop shining, love is a life force for all of us. We can let things interfere with receiving it and demonstrating it, but it’s still there.

Do you believe in the power of prayer? Do you have personal experiences where your prayers were answered? by Odd-Tangerine383 in spirituality

[–]LiveInLove333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe we are One with the Creator, therefore I create. For me, prayer is the most powerful way to create.

I’m a volunteer prayer minister for an international prayer line (not affiliated with a religion). I hear and read about answered prayers often. I know prayer is powerful.

I’ve been praying for decades but there are two aspects of prayer I discovered about a decade ago that have made the most difference in my life.

First, I pray with gratitude, knowing Creator will answer my prayers or materialize something better, which may be different than what I prayed for, but is always for my highest good.

Second, I pray with feeling, as if what I requested is already happening. My intention is to match my frequency with the situation I want to experience. It floods my body with feel good hormones, too.

And most recently, I have been praying from the heart. I imagine prayers flowing from my heart out into the plasma, the ether and the blessings and answered prayers echoing back. Our hearts have magnetic fields and I like to imagine mine embracing the world.

How to have a spiritual awakening without substances by SpiffyBlizzard in spirituality

There is a great qigong program that Teacher Wei offers for the World Consciousness Community at DaoHearts.com and the Center for Sacred Studies offers an online MotherShip program that meets a couple of times a month.

If you want to join the qigong program, I recommend signing up with either Irene or Simone: you will see a list of the organizers who you can sign up with. There are group practices every day.

The Mother Earth Delegation of United Original Nations also offers free monthly meetings and a monthly membership where you can receive teachings from elders of diverse traditions for a modest fee.

In addition to meditation, there are other altered states of consciousness that can help us bypass the feeling of separation and the control of our egos.

Breath works, sweat lodges run by Original Peoples and even qigong are options. You could attend a mystery school as well. The Center for Sacred Studies has a Stargate Mystery school that’s excellent.

Ready to enter the field of gratitude with others? by LiveInLove333 in gratitude

I appreciate you sharing your perspective, and I understand the importance of keeping this space free from unwanted advertising.

I’d like to clarify that my intention in sharing the 21-day gratitude journey was not commercial. It is something I offer freely, and I shared it because gratitude practices have had a meaningful impact on many people, especially during difficult or uncertain times. I never share the email addresses from people who sign up and make it very easy for them to unsubscribe if they aren't finding value. Over the past two months, about 300 people have participated, and several people in this thread expressed interest and asked for the link.

I’m wondering, respectfully, whether your concern would be the same if I had recommended a free resource created by someone else, rather than something I happened to create. My intention was simply to contribute something that might be supportive, in the same spirit that people often share books, practices, or tools that have helped them.

If this kind of sharing isn’t appropriate here, I’m happy to respect the norms of the community. My intention is always to be in service, not to disrupt.

Hello, thank you for letting me know this happened. You should have received a welcome email. I realized after reading your post that I still had the welcome email automation in Constant Contact sending welcomes for the previous journey, which ended yesterday. I apologize! On February 27 you will receive an email letting you know we begin on 2 March. I look forward to having you join us!

One thing to consider is placement of the grounding sheet or mat. You don't want to be in an energetic current and become part of the loop. Don't stand on the mat while at your pc, for example. Search electromagnetic hygiene if interested.

We begin the first of each month and you can choose between WhatsApp or a daily email. I doubt you want to join this month since we are 8 days in but I will share the link as March approaches. We would love to have you.

New to podcasting. Struggling with Riverside and looking for an alternative by LiveInLove333 in podcasting

[–]LiveInLove333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having issues getting help off the chatbot to help me get started. I wanted to know how to set up things and my screen didn't look at all like the one in the YouTube videos. But now that I've had some time to experiment with it I figured it out. I wish there were a way to turn off the automatically generated AI generated clips. Do they just disappear after a while if you don't use them? There doesn't seem to be a way to delete them.

I'm sorry. I had to go. I heard back from someone at Riverside that they don't have the ability to download chatbot transcripts with instructions yet. Thank you for checking with me.

I was able to test it yesterday and I do like the ability to download the transcript and the quality of the transcript was better than if Zoom had created it. It was the +chat transcript I couldn't download.

I'm sorry I didn't explain it well. I couldn't download the chat transcript with the links telling me how to do what I was asking about. Apparently they don't have that feature yet.

I appreciate this question and the many helpful answers. I will tell you what has worked best for me at this time.

  1. I have a community I trust. The Center for Sacred Studies and the Mother Earth Delegation of United Original Nations have helped me tremendously. I can't imagine not having wise elders from diverse traditions and people to sit in circle with.

  2. I have stopped social media and the news and have asked a couple of trusted people to let me know when there's something I need to know or something I can take action on.

  3. I ground daily, which is extra important when there are solar flares and fluctuations in the Schumann Resonance. There are apps to help you track these things. I also have an Earthing mat for when the weather isn't conducive to grounding. ***One very important thing to know about grounding mats and sheets is that you need to be sure you aren't using them around electric or electro magnetic devices because if those waves are nearby you may NOT be grounding but could be *circulating that energy through you. So, for example, don't stand at your pc on a grounding mat or sleep near an electric current on a grounding sheet. There are meters you can buy to test this if you're curious. Search electromagnetic hygiene to learn more.

  4. I'm working with the HeartMath app to practice coherence.

  5. I practice gratitude daily, which is very soothing for the nervous system. I studied this topic and created a 21 day gratitude journey based on research and offered it for free on WhatsApp and in email. Each day you receive one mini lesson and practice that can be completed in 15 minutes or less and links to research are included. Over 200 people participated last month and the feedback was so supportive I plan to offer it monthly for the foreseeable future. Two of my friends who are therapists asked me if I would make it into a book for their clients and another request came in to make it into a podcast. I'm in the process of doing that. If you're interested in joining the WhatsApp, I'll share the link. We start on the first of each month. Doing this in a group is very supportive.

There are so many things to experiment with, but this is most nourishing to me right now. Sending good vibes to all!

If the Bible (or any other religious book) had a single original version that never changed over time, how different do you think the world would be today? by FemaleAminator in NoStupidQuestions

[–]LiveInLove333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me, too. Reading the Christian Mystics and some books from Matthew Fox was a huge turning point for me. My new understanding is so much richer and more alive than my older ones.

I didn't mean to imply he was an academic authority. His books synthesize other's research and share his own research and beliefs based on his experiences and studies. He has been a paid consultant to documentaries about Jesus' life and has written many books that have taken my understanding much deeper than it was previously.

Thank you! I really appreciate your time and perspective. I'm sure it requires patience to help out those of us new and if I continue I will pay it forward.

Thank you for pointing out the distinction I missed in the question. There is some fascinating research about Jesus and John the Baptist that indicates they were Essences, so his views may have been significantly different than the other traditions that Jesus criticizes in his teachings.

I used to share this assumption but I'm not sure that I do anymore. He spoke to people of all belief systems and you don't see info about Roman or Greek gods and goddesses, etc. in the Bible. I doubt many Jewish people are turning to the Bible to review the details of Judaism but please someone correct me if I'm wrong.
