When Shakti says you're not supposed to have something

[Guest guest]

This is a very interesting story, and I'm sure similar situations have happened

to all of you, but I thought it would be nice to share. Ever felt like there was

a reason why something was being taken from you? Sometimes that's happened to

me, and I've been enraged over it, and obsessed with finding a way to keep it.

Sometimes though, it's just not meant to be. This took place before my back pain

faded.

 

Here's my story;

I was having that pain in my back, so I had my massaging/ heating pad on top of

my air bed. I'm the very silly girl, who sleeps on a raised air bed, which is on

top of a regular bed. I have to either climb or jump to get up on it..but it's

SOoooooo comfy! Since it gets warm, I put a thick spread under it,and a blanket

over it.

I was using that wonderful combination, of a comfy air bed, and a massaging

heating pad, for several days. Then one morning, I woke up to a partially

deflated air bed.

 

I thought " Well, maybe I just need to fill it with air, since it was getting

quite low to begin with, but I hadn't been able to refill it; cause I've been

coming home from work at 11:30 or 12:00 and I didn't want to wake Mike (or the

neighbors) with my noisy air compressor. So I just slept on it that way.

 

The next night, I filled it up again, almost all the way (I like it to feel

spongy, not too hard) and in the morning it was flat again. I was so confused.

Now normally, I'd be throwing things, and yelling about how mad I am at " my

stupid things that never work " but a calm came over me, and I didn't. It was

actually kind of strange. It was a feeling like something knew that it would

work out, and it was telling me to chill.

 

That night I filled it up again, and I made sure to push on the cap, until I

knew it was all the way shut. I thought that maybe that was why it went flat

before.

Still, when I woke up, it was flat again. I couldn't understand it, because I

don't have anything sharp near my bed, but I knew there must be a hole in it.

 

As soon as I got a chance, I filled it up and climbed on top of it on my hands

and knees..scouring it for any small holes. Guess what I found? Three burn

spots! The burns must've caused small pin size holes, although for the life of

me, I just can't see them..and that's what was deflating my bed!

So last night, although it was too late when I got home, to fill the air bed up

all the way..I slept on the soft and wobbly thing without the massaging/heating

pad.

 

Sometimes, there's a reason why we're not supposed to have what we want.

Thankfully my air bed didn't catch fire. I wonder if that's only because when it

made a hole, air came out. I wonder if it would have, had it been a regular bed.

I shutter at the thought.

 

Just thought I'd share my experience, and add - never doubt that feeling you

have and always remember, that if it seems like something is being taken from

you, don't be too mad, there might be a good reason why. I learned a valuable

lesson.

 

Love,

Tara

Interesting story, Tara. I recently had Shakti take away something I

was very attached to. She cured me of my attachment to my astrological

ring: a ruby I had gotten from India and had been wearing day and

night for the last five years. The ruby was supposed to protect me

from negative astrological influences--and I believe it did. When I

received it as a gift, I was also told that the ruby would embody my

luck. Losing it would be equivalent to losing my good fortunes.

 

The ring vanished one day a couple of months ago. When I tried to use

my K to locate it, I found my husband's own astrological ring instead,

which he had lost several years earlier. I did not find mine.

 

To make a long story short, somehow my astrological ring ended up in

the kitchen sink grinder, which pulverized it. I was in the room when

that happened, and as soon as I heard the funky noise coming from the

grinder I KNEW it was from my precious ring being destroyed.

 

In hindsight, I think this meant that I didn't need the ruby any more,

It had to go, and this was the only way for me to give it up. If the

ring hadn't been destroyed, I would still wear it.

Wow Sel,

You and I could just about be twins.

I got a ring from a spiritual store which closed down over the summer.

It was supposed to keep me safe, and block negative forces.

I lost it one day, and searched high and low, but just couldn't find it.

Before I left for work, I had retraced my steps about a dozen times.

I knew I had taken it off to do the dishes, and then it was gone.

When I turned on the water, I heard a little ding sound coming from the garbage

disposal. Somehow I fished it out with two forks, but after that..I felt I

wasn't supposed to be so attached to it. That's when I stopped wearing it.

 

There was the infamous time when I lost my quartz crystal, when it fell off my

necklace. I felt dizzy and sick; as if I was falling and falling in a spiral. I

couldn't stand the feeling, and I didn't know why I had it. Then I realized my

crystal was gone. I was told it would hold my energy, and that I shouldn't let

anyone touch it, because energy would leave me. Someone else told me that I

should be extra careful with it, because if it broke, my energy would escape.

Needless to say, I was hysterical when I lost it. I had to learn to shut out

that feeling of imbalance, and the dizzy sensation. I had to learn to create my

own luck, and pray and meditate to receive energy, without a crystal.

After I found it, I was weaned of my need to have it, so I no longer wore it.

 

It was a tough lesson to learn, but there was a reason why I was supposed to be

without it. I was leaning too much on its 'powers' or better yet, its ability to

contain mine. I liked your story. It reminded me of myself.

 

Peace and love to you Sel,

Tara

I think the mind is a powerful thing. If you believe that all your

energy is inside a crystal - then the loss of that crystal will

probably be devastating. If you believe that all of your power lies

within YOU, then it does and nothing can take that away. Just mho.
