Guest guest Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I woke up from a dream this morning that left me with a yuk feeling. I am thinking this dream may have been about a repressed memory trying to surface maybe. I woke up and was trying to go back over the dream when the scrambled up mandala thing happened again. I tried to conscentrate on it, to figure it out, but I couldn't understand. When it got intense, I called out to Shakti in a prayer to help me understand, which shocked me out of the trance I was in because it seemed so weird for me to be praying automatically to Shakti instead of for Jesus for help. *sigh* This is the third time I have had this scrambled up mandala thing to showed up. I don't know what it is or what it is suppose to represent. The other two times it morphed into a beautiful mandala before it was over with, but not this time or I just woke up before it could. When it is in the chaotic mess state, it gives me an awful feeling, like I am scattered into bits and pieces. All three times it has happened at the end of a disturbing dream.

Everything is symbolic right? Scattered memories, yukky feeling, calling to shakti, the answer is in there somewhere. love and warming hugs elektra x x x ps I loved your god concept description, i found it resonated deeply with me. All that is God is symbolicly represented through the universe, our planet, our bodies and everything. x x x x x x x x x x ________ Not happy with your email address?.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 I don't know about the mandala Linda, but I can relate to feeling weird about praying to Shakti. I sometimes find myself talking to her and then feeling guilty, thinking I am neglecting God and Jesus.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Wow Sarita, did you ever hit a chord with me!!! I am still trying to reconcile that! I have had such deep personal experiences when praying with Jesus, to the point where I have felt like I was taken out of this physical realm and placd in a spiritual realm while in prayer, .... and I have yet to experience that with Shatki... I just have asked Jesus to show me the truth in this matter, and I know he will reveal it to me. HOWEVER... what I am experiencing with kundalini is very very real, and so I know there has to be answers for me. I alo have had some very deep talks with Jesus regarding all of this, and I have great peace about it all. --- On Mon, 7/28/08, Sarita <sarita1969 wrote: Sarita <sarita1969 Re: Scrambled up mandala Monday, July 28, 2008, 9:30 PM I don't know about the mandala Linda, but I can relate to feeling weird about praying to Shakti.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 I think part of the problem has been religious teachings. We are taught - insert whatever teaching you have received here_________. In many ways I feel religion brings us farther away from God and makes us feel that we are not worthy. Priests or Pastors are attributed some special pipeline to divinity. Through my own experiences I have seen that we do receive direct communication, that we are as worthy as the next person. What makes us worthy is not some secret formula, it is our birthright. I have often felt the presence of Jesus or the Holy Spirit while praying, in a physical way. It has been a tough road, but I am learning to let go of the things that have been drummed into my head. I really made progress when Shakti and Jesus showed up together in my meditation. They shared the space, side by side. What could be more clear than that? I have to remember that every time I start feeling doubtful. Sarita , "Linda" <crazycats711 wrote:>> I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels strange about that.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 The essential realization of all mystics of all times is that we are parts of a deeper unity; therefore I think that any movement toward unity is the direction truth is found, and conversely any movement away from unity is toward illusion. Of course that's a duality, so what is at the core is just awareness, things as they are as the Buddhists would say.
