Idk where else to post this but I’ve been having some spiritual awakening since 2020 and I just wanted to get some opinions from like-minded individuals

Obviously I’m not fully awakened but I have experienced “glimpses” behind the veil and the “cosmic joke” I realize we take this life far too seriously, but at the same time it is a big deal that we show love and servitude to others. Pretty much everything that Jesus taught and practiced is exactly how a human being should act and think

However even with this new awareness I have I still feel nervous around other humans and sometimes feel the need to drink

For example, I met my husband online and we chatted on the phone for months. Then when I finally met up with him I was buzzed/drunk for the first few weeks until I got comfortable . He didn’t notice and I am definately not an alcoholic

I also feel the need to drink around in-laws, and other people I’m not totally comfortable with

Spiritually speaking where does this desire for alcohol come from? When I drink I feel less nervous and “on edge” , when I am sober I find myself stuttering and nervous . Thoughts?

The other night at 2:50am couldn’t sleep and i heard a clear angelic female voice say 2 words that meant God is my judge in Hebrew. I heard this in the hallway, I checked on my wife and daughter to see maybe she said something to my daughter in her sleep or something but they were sound asleep and i checked every room and even outside but at the time everyone is asleep and my neighbourhood is usually super quiet place. My hairs were standing and i freaked out a bit. What can it mean? I never experienced such a thing.

The following is the guts of a post I wrote this morning. You might resonate. There's an associated image you'll find on my profile page, but I removed it here as it includes my user handle (see I read the rules).

Our heart centers play a crucial role. They are the sensors that interact with the core frequency of creation, the frequency from which all of creation manifests. We call that frequency love. Feelings like joy, happiness, and delight, are a part of that frequency so to experience those things in our lives, our hearts must be open and receptive to this core frequency of creation.

Many experiences through lifetimes may have caused the heart to retreat or close entirely. This is why healing is so important. When we heal and leave the past behind, our lives transform, our relationships transform and our hearts open once again, making way for this alignment I've been talking about.

Once your heart is open, it's possible to, let's say, "look around," look in various directions? Does this direction feel joyful? Do I feel delight in this direction? This is the process of allowing the heart to resume sensing its natural alignment - its alignment with love.

The core frequency of love is everywhere and in everything. It is the creative backbone of all creation. So no matter which way you look, you can find it, but it does require the refinement of the heart sensor. There's a process that occurs once the heart is open - this refinement process - where, if done consciously, it's possible to recognize the feeling of love no matter which way you're looking, and thus choose it.

"Ah! I feel love there!"

When we reach that level of conscious recognition of love, not only can we choose it in every moment, but we recognize it everywhere, even in those things that may look, outwardly, quite dreadful.

Love is the core frequency of creation. We can choose this experience, through the process of opening the heart and then consciously remembering the feeling of the alignment with love, or ... we can choose to experience life without that.

It's time to open our hearts my friends. This is the way.

Can you feel it? Something is definitely happening, I don’t know about you guys but i can feel and sense a something weird and unexplainable is happening right now. Feel tired even though i get my sleep and rest, most days i take energy tablets and workout, eat as best as i can in a healthy way, plenty of play and family love but still feel drained and exhausted for some weird reason. Do you feel the same? Can anyone explain what’s going on?

I need help. I had a relationship with a girl, we weren’t dating but we both loved each other. The only thing that stood in our way was my fear because of how traumatized I am. She gave me love, I pushed her away. I kept pushing her away. And by the time I realized what I was doing and tried to make it right. She moved on, she stopped loving me. We talked and agreed to have a 1 month break. During  that time I was working on improving myself, my mental health most importantly. But. She found someone else. Im struggling with mental health and its really important for me to get her back by the end of the year. I never really believed in anything spiritual, im agnostic, leaning on the side that God or some higher power is real. Im desperate and don’t know what to do.

I just read somewhere that Black Friday breaks sales records. It made me think that there is a struggle to live in poverty, and there is another kind of struggle to live in an overabundant society, where new things are bought not because the old ones got broken but as improvement or enchantment on what we already have, or simply because something shiny and new caught our attention. Oh, I don't want to say that I am not guilty about it myself. However, I recognize the challenge, and these days, I give myself some time before deciding to buy something.

When I was 18 years old I had a strange spiritual experience and had strange powerful energy and lot of spiritual joy. that after a while it get back to normal . but since then when I walked in street I counter with some People that I absolutely didn't know but when I listen to what they said I realize that they talked about me ! this happens until now for 20 years , not always but sometimes. They sometimes advise me sometime gives me info about spiritual thing or other thing . last thing I hear from them was that " We all are you " . That was very confusing for me . I don't know who they are and what they want from me . Anyone here had the same experience ? could any one help me ?

Unless otherwise directed by a Mod, on occasion, I will pop in here and post a spiritually related quote.

And maybe make a comment about it.

This 1st one (below) I understand is by Mark Twain.

"Any emotion, if it is sincere, is involuntary."

To me, it means, it comes not from the thinking and analyzing mind, but from a truer and more accurate location....down deep within you. The real you; that is connected to the "collective".

Stay well,

BT

The universe has its own harmony, but not everyone's thoughts and everyone's hearts are in harmony with the melody that the universe plays.

Good is like a musical instrument that is in harmony, playing uninterruptedly, revealing a great brilliance that shines amidst so much disharmony present in the world. Evil is a disharmonious sound that plays uninterruptedly, demanding changes that will make it shine too.

You too should shine. Play for everyone to hear and adjust their melodies, just as they once played so that yours could be adjusted.

People want God to come to them in a logical way. There is nothing logical, rational or reasonable about the way heaven works.

I use a ball as an example, but the basis behind all of this is that there are 2 sides: the divine and demonic. the light and dark..however you want to look at it, there are 2 clear sides.

the first dimension can be seen as like a ball. if you drop the ball, it goes from low frequency to high frequency, up and down, order and chaos.

the second dimension adds another point in space. two points connected make a line. so think of it like a string, or a plane. if you pluck the string, it follows the wave form continuously now from the beginning to the end. this is where time begins because it's 'dragging out' that first dimension to 2 points. plotting each point where the next frequency shows up creates a scale. you'll notice that it follows the same pattern as the ball did; the lower the frequency, the wider the space will be. the higher the frequency, the tighter the space because the string follows the waveform. now we have a spectrum of frequencies plotted out between order and chaos.

the third dimension adds even more depth. think of it like 3 balls on strings. it's combining both 1st and 2nd dimensions together, adding even more depth. we now have vibrations and space and time to work with. next is patterns. move all of the balls at once and let them swing. it creates a perfect pattern. it's swinging from low frequency to high. it starts in order, in a perfect pattern. it slowly decays into a disruption pattern(the disorder in the order), it then looks like a chaotic mess(chaos). it goes from total chaos back to order(the order within the chaos), forming a different pattern(order again). each pattern being a different resonance along the spectrum.

so now we've added patterns to the mix. we started with a single vibration, stretching it out.. essentially creating time and space. then the next dimension creates patterns that exist along the spectrum.

the 4th dimension now. we have patterns moving along a plane, but what happens when we add a 4th? where would it go? we need to find a way to add another point in space. this is where fractals are born. the basis behind this is opposites, so if we add another opposite then they will work with and against eachother perfectly. the yin yang looks like this. as you 'fall into' one of the small circles on either side, you start to become more and more encompassed in that energy until the whole coin flips and you find yourself on the other side. each pattern/frequency that was previously created can now divide infinitely into fractal forms. that creates everything we see and understand, from the smallest to biggest things in the universe.

but.. let's use a different example instead of a ball, let's use something practical for an example. protons electrons and neutrons. positive. negative and neutral. remember it takes 3 to make a pattern. it manifests as physical matter. 2 opposing forces that come together, yet work against eachother in endless loops. this is what atoms do. nothing ever goes between one state to the other without a transition. there are repeating patterns everywhere we look. the variables are too vast to fully comprehend, but this idea isn't out of reach.

using the yin yang as a model, you can have multiple different ideas on top of eachother simultaneously and compare them objectively or subjectively. it can create a profound understanding of the world we live in because this world is nothing but opposites.

I just discovered prison planet theory. I feel horrible. Been having an existential crisis for the last two weeks. The funny part is the religion I grew up in believes in reincarnation. But this theory has me questioning the motive behind the reincarnation. I am having trouble feeling hopeful. Any suggestions?

Hello friends I’m new to this sub. I am 24(f) & have been exploring my spirituality since I was 21, introduced to me by a therapist that I was working with & has massively helped me connect with my own purpose, morality & view myself both objectively and without judgment and subjectively in the way that I participate fully in the human experience.

Something that I’m deliberating on currently is how to participate in a close relationship with someone who doesn’t have a concept of spirituality, or the different levels of being.

Something my ex used to get slightly upset (but possibly even very because he didn’t show too much negative emotion I can’t pretend to know the depth of his feelings) with me about is thinking that I know things about him or thinking I know him better than he knows himself.

I think that while he was recognizing a pattern of behaviour from me, I don’t quite think that it was me thinking that I knew him better than himself, but rather I could tell when he wasn’t in line with his higher self or his subconscious. I think after being with someone for a while (3 years & living together for 1) you start to recognize from the energy that they give off when they are being fully truthful with themselves.

Something that reaffirms this for me is knowing when he was lying. For the first part of our relationship, I was wary of when I had that tingle of doubt, because I didn’t want to lean into what I thought was insecurity or an insecure attachment style. But it turns out I was right… every single time. It started to get weird.

To this day, as we are friends, occasionally we’ll be having a conversation and he’ll recognize the glimmer on my face and get frustrated with me and say something along the lines of “I know you think you know things”. I swear I’m not trying to be condescending by any means! I just get excited when I see the opportunity to explore things with people when I see an internal disconnect. I’m working on “fixing my face”, but I worry at this point he might even associate his own internal feeling with my energy sensing pattern.

So I guess the point of this post is to just get general thoughts from anyone who wants to interact- have you had any similar experiences? How do you go about explaining your spiritual approach to thoughts and feelings to a partner who isn’t spiritual? Do you find it difficult to be with someone who isn’t at the same level of introspection as you?

Thanks in advance :)

I had a random flash of memories coming back to me of when i was a kid. There was this one day i just came back from lunch after feeling weird the entire day but unable to pinpoint exactly why. I just began telling my parents i was unwell and when they asked why i kept repeating it felt like my soul was empty. It happent a few more times but they just thought i was being dumb or seeking attention so i stopped.

Does anyone have any idea what could have caused it? Even to this day i can’t explain exact how i felt and still feel occasionally. Just suddenly its like i cant breathe deep enough and i feel unreal. Literally like my sould is emptied out.

When people ask what are you grateful for, many people respond with family and health etc, but, if you had to choose 3 things that you are grateful for and think are often overlooked, what would it be?

Hi everyone,

This is a compendium of quotes from many wisdom traditions. I've been compiling over some years, initially to help with practice and motivation on my path. Some years ago I shared a much shorter version of this on another subreddit, and people appreciated it, so I expanded it with the intention to share.

You will find it covers topics on introspection, effort, impermanence, and other themes which are most often present in any spiritual tradition.

I won't say much more, as the introduction does a better job at describing the contents. You can download it here, in PDF and EPUB formats: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/u8pig2mn98p6rhw80p9nj/AFVAfdO4YJYvcUh8BBgtPCc?rlkey=njq230ho4dxwu8ajea77mhiak&st=qugryitn&dl=0

I hope you enjoy :)

P.S.: I won't apply the "self-promoting" flair because most of what is written is not my doing, and it's a free resource.

Early this year my ex moved away from one day to the other and we had a big fight before that...we didn't talk for months and in summer he wanted to come back and lived with me for 4 months while looking for his own place. During this time I felt more and more drained and had severe mood swings. I also felt used.

After being with me and draining me of my energy he's been having good luck while I just felt tired. Now that I'm alone again I feel more energetic and been trying to manifest my dreams again.

Early this year I've made a manifestation journal where I put pictures of things I wanted to manifest. Nothing came really true yet... at least not for me, but somehow I see that he has been getting the things that I HAVE BEEN MANIFESTING, just like the pictures in my journal. I also feel like when we are not much in contact for a while he seems to have less luck, because he comes back with bad news every time, while I'm doing good.

What is happening? Am I overthinking or could he really be harvesting my energy? How can I protect myself? Or is it just a sign that my manifestations will come to me soon?

People don't even like a reminder of the spirit that lives in them and shows them that it is eternal and that they're not so; and as far as they can they're killing their consciousness of the Spirit. Killing your Self to live.

So I had an interesting thing happen, and I'm not sure if this is the right place but it felt like (maybe) it might be?

A few years ago I was dating this guy, and he told me that I was mirroring him. We had similar pasts and interests, but i wasn't trying to mimick or copy him. There was a very strange occurance where we were blazed and listening to music, and spontaneously both turned to each other and said "gotcha". It had no relation to the song or anything else going on. We both seemed a little confused afterwards. The reality is he was saying some bizarre things that I felt like I couldn't correct him on, and fawning at times. He was projecting things onto me and assuming them as real/my intentions. This isn't the first time that this has happened, and it made me think about how these sort of interactions can work on a deeper level. If the person is capable of actually reflecting on their actions and assumptions, would it show them their "shadow" side? Has anyone else dealt with this kind of thing before?

If this is not the sub for this, please feel free to delete.

Well I think I have seen people having strong INTUTION or possibility of happening something and it becomes true.. I have come under situations where I just don't know how a picture comes to mind and after a while I can see same thing happening..I always knew about bad things that would happen to me and has happened.. I just asked my Mom one Day about what do she think about it to make sure it is normal to be having coincidences like that..she told me she knew how her life will turn out since childhood..

So I’ve been having weird dreams lately.

Last night, I dreamt that I ate 10 suns, as a wholly conscious being. I also dreamt that I fought a demon or some and emerged victorious.

What do you think the dreams mean?

I hope this finds you well and in good harmony | Our world is changing and becoming A|NEW.

There clearly is a be ridding of those who seek only the light and want to heal those around them & WITHIN themselves.

Be healed within all and within others, do not turn your mind to faltering ideals nor principles.

We must be strong and kind towards the INFINITY for a pathway is forever made to those who seek only in such divinely made remarks. God speed to you and your families, the days are growing thinner to the everglades of a new light.

A NEW WORLD | A GOLDEN AGE FOR ALL WHO SEE AND CAN BE WITHIN This holy matrimony.

i'm talking about heat death of the universe. if we are the universe, does that mean that no matter what, if the universe dies, we will too? our souls, that is?

Hello, all.

I have a big question for everyone. Let me give you the 411. I started dating a guy four months ago. We finally met, and it felt as if I had known this person my whole life. We even mirror each other and ALMOST look alike. There have been numerous signs such as synchronized numbers between us and God confirming to us that we are meant to be together.

Has anyone had this spiritual experience when you finally met your person?

I strayed away from the faith I was brought up in, which according to Google is the most popular religion in the world. Ironically, I strayed away from it as I sought out my spirit. I interacted with TWO spirit guides face-to-face (although each emanated so much light I could not see their faces)

After that night I felt like it was all going to be ok, but the people I am closest to in spirit - my parents and sister - say that if I’m not 100% certain Jesus Christ’s quotes of Hell are legit then I have a one-way ticket straight to it. Again, according to Google, most people who believe in God believe this is just part of life. I am so scared because I don’t know if I should trust my intuition, or if I am stupid and I need to follow what all of these other billions of humans follow. I am so scared and some nights I can’t sleep at all because I anticipate the Hell, the damnation, that awaits. I need help, but the therapist I reached out to basically shrugged his shoulders and said he wasn’t religious himself so he doesn’t really care about my fear either way. I don’t know what else to really say about what I am going through, I just needed to get it off my chest.

We are Peace , Joy , Calm and blessed . We have not find the same outside . It’s our real nature . This nature can be discovered within by regular meditation and practicing presence of god every where . Expand your consciousness slowly slowly in practice . Show gratitude, empathy , concern towards other fellow being . Believe you me you have everything which require to be divine .. Let’s realise it and practice it in our life .

Hari om Tatsat

What next?

Would like to know what can be learned from spirituality other than spells. Is there anything that can be obtained after an ego death?

Thank you for your insights in advance 🙏
