Guest guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Hi everyone, K. continues to work, speaking to me in ever new and creative ways.My sense of connection to what is happening around me is becoming ever more meaningful and its fascinating how it all unfolds. On Wednesday night, I went to a bar to meet a friend of mine. I didn't feel comfortable in the bar, and my friend had a grasping, male hunting, almost aggressive energy which I didn't enjoy. A plate of food was almost spilt in front of us. Soon after, two people next to me, in a strange accident, spilt their beer on me and broke a bottle on the floor. I met another friend shortly after and chatted to her for a while. Standing next to her in another spot, another drink was spilt on me. It wasn't a rowdy night, it was two unusual incidents. I went home soon after as I didn't feel comfortable. I wonder, can I take on the Karma of another and that manifest in the field around? I slept with a woman on Friday night. She has a strong spirit, yet is also dogged by an inner conflict. This was the second time we slept together; the first time was a beautiful, intimate experience, which created some inner shifts within me. This time she had been drinking, was angry with a friend of hers, and carried the anger into the room. She was still angry when we made love, which on reflection, was a mistake as an essential connection was lacking. I couldn't get an inch of sleep that night. She neither, and as we were both restless, we both felt it better that she return to her house around dawn. As she was getting ready to leave, I kicked over a glass of water in my room, spilling it on the floor. She left and I finally got some sleep. Later that day, I went to the gym, and on return, found that I had forgotten my keys in the apartment. I never forget my keys, and so I sat, waiting for my housemate to return, wondering how I was locking myself out of my inner chamber. This was an apt reflection, as I have been engaging in more hedonistic, self-serving pleasure and less noble pursuits such as my bodhisattva vow. That night, I met a new friend, and one of the topics of the night was surrender. We had a great dinner and good chat, yet afterwards, I was a little tired. This morning, I awoke feeling tired and not well rested. I just couldn't seem to get going. I drew a random tarot card for the day, and the theme was `Control'. I have never once been late for my teaching job. This morning, though, I knocked my protein drink over which required a fair amount of time to clean up the mess. I had to wait to use the bathroom. The trip to work has never taken more than 40 minutes, and I use the underground metro system, and require two changes. The worst possible option of train catching occurred. I missed the first tube by 20 seconds and had to wait six minutes. I missed the next tube by about 30 seconds and had to wait 8 minutes. I missed the final tube by 15 seconds and had to wait 3 minutes. I could feel the frustration rising, and just allowed it to be there, working with the inner voice of control, seeing the inner story as a dream, and relaxed, not pushing away or indulging in the frustration, feeling it infinity, allowing it to self-liberate. I finally arrived at work 5 minutes late for my class after a 50 minute journey. There was nothing eventful at work. Yet, on the way home, buying some groceries, I picked up an egg carton and it was open, and two eggs fell out, smashing. I called the assistant to clean them up. It just struck me as strange, things spilling, falling, breaking. There were 5 spillages on me or around me or from me in the last five days. This rarely happens to me, and I wonder how I am perhaps spilling emotional energy (symbolized by the fluid and the water) and by wasting that emotional energy on the wrong pursuits, I am destroying my creative potential (smashing the eggs). By focusing on the external world too much, I lose the key to my inner world, which is the real source of my joy, my creativity, and my nourishment. This seems to make sense in terms of my current behavior, as I have been having a lot of fun in my last month in Asia. So today, I was having creative thoughts. Tonight I feel a return to writing, to creating things, to putting them together, to prayer, to inner contemplation and a surrender to the divine once again. Miracles continue to unfold.

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Wow Bruce,i can see what you're talking about.There was a time in my life when things started happening in my life after meeting someone and i was wondering too if we could take on the karma of another person but chrism said that it wasn't possible but maybe by having a cotact with someone else it's a catalyst for change,maybe it's supossed to happen when our lives start to feel too comfortable to us.One thing i figured out so far is that there has to be change so that there is growth,to be stagnant is to fester,lol.I wish you will find some inner meaning in all this.Bless you,Bruce! love,nicole , " bruce_oom " <bruce_oom wrote: > > Hi everyone, > > K. continues to work, speaking to me in ever new and creative ways.My sense of connection to what is happening around me is becoming ever more meaningful and its fascinating how it all unfolds. > > On Wednesday night, I went to a bar to meet a friend of mine.

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Nothing has been spilled on me, but I went through a period not long ago when I could not keep a grip on anything. I bent over to retrieve more things off the floor! At one point the thought came to me, "Can I hold onto nothing!" And later I reflected on that thought and how maybe it is a sign to me to, indeed, let go of more things, whether material or attachments. So, in certain situations in which I'd typically respond in a certain way, I've started telling myself to let it go....let it go. And I have cleaned house and given away a lot of stuff. I haven't dropped too much since. Carolyn--- On Sun, 4/19/09, bruce_oom <bruce_oom wrote: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Hi, Bruce, I notice that your awareness is being predicated on a polaric view of your interactions with the world and your recent choices which may be taking you in new or different directions to those you have been going in in the past. There are classified "self-serving pursuits" vs. "noble pursuits," "inner, creative activity" vs. exploring externals, etc. It also seems that the lessons you are leaning toward considering are warnings of undesirable behaviour on your part and their negative consequences. Another view is that there are available everywhere only signs of unconditional acceptance from the One, but, through exercising free will and the discrimination born of separation in this physical environment, we may interpret these reflections in any manner we so choose or feel we need. Another interpretation of the dousings would be that you were thrice baptised and thus, your actions within the given situations were santified and approved (one example). The eggs breaking might just as easily represent the shattering of the old creations, making way for the new. Had these alternate courses of thinking been observed, future expectations and subsequent inward contemplation may have been altered to a degree of elevating as sacred whatever pursuit you had chosen to be occupied with at the moment. But, we generally see spills as negative things (things to be cleaned up after) and missing trains as inconveniences. Spirit, however, is not of the same opinion and does not suffer inconvenience. Missing a train would be a neutral occurence on a more transcendant level. Remember the movie "Sliding Doors?" It explores parallel universes which diverge at the point of Gwyneth Platrow's character missing the tube by seconds. Through each path she experiences and learns in intricate, but very different, ways, . We can't fathom what adjustments might be being made by these small happenstances, or series of events. Sometimes they later become clear, sometimes not. But it is all good in that all our experiential streams (and we are experiencing many parallel lives at once) are gathering data for us on the soul level to be assimilated and help us refine. In this life stream we are focussed on our immediate choices, but in other ways and on other levels we are exploring all possible choices. Through this means we maximise experience. If you are projecting negative symbology or inferences into these occurences, then there may indeed be the need to examine your choices and how they may be negatively affecting you. However, I believe it is not so much what we do but the manner in which we go about our actions. If our awareness is first on impeccable observation and expression of our authenticity, we can not go far wrong in our subsequent conduct. Relying on the old, automatic judgments (i.e., sexual freedom = bad, selfish) will only reinforce these present paradigms. There is an authentically expressed version of sexual freedom, for example, which would honour all involved and your connection to the Divine. If we navigate according to this inner guidance, we will not need to have reflected any external warning signs. Perhaps closer attention paid to the way one feels in the moment as he chooses and acts is in order, but at the same time not judging moralistically in a way that would cut off the flow of the true higher insight. My thoughts on it. You will *know* what to do, in a space of self-love, -respect and -approval. x, Droxine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Hi Bruce, Thanks for sharing. I'm certain that these energetic exchanges occur, but am not at all sure how they come about. In a similar way, I don't understand everything about my physical body and how its system is able to find equilibrium as I seek balance or in spite of my self-will. My sense of self has expanded a great deal over the years and this shows in what I think about or desire. Myself or my sense of self is still here but it exists within a growing context of relationships to people, situations, events, and energies that my conscious mind cannot comprehend. I feel that if on a deep level my understanding of self is inclusive enough, my body, physical and otherwise, will have to find its equilibrium in a way that compliments my expanded sense of self. Chrism has said that there is a symbolic nature to the events in our life, that life can be threaded together in experiences reflecting some aspect of the universe. It feels like a dislocation of our life to an event symbolic of how aligned we are with our deepest intentions. These synchronicities could be measurements, and they may occur by virtue of something we have intended or through opening ourselves up to being a part of the intentions of those around us. Interference, resonance, and amplifications… If our energy is interfacing with the world at higher frequencies, we open ourselves up to patterns of energy ranging from the physical and psychological states of people around us (these could be soul operations or simple health issues) to social or cultural movements to great shifts in the world dynamic. All of this could be viewed as the transformation of consciousness, linked through the infinite experiences our divine will can manifest by playing with time and space. Seeing the world through this perspective allows us to have more of an impact on the world, but only the intelligence of the energy can process how our impact filters back into our lives. This is why says if we pray for someone or ask for something, it is best we ask for the highest good. So we are intending the highest good and offering our life or energy as a mean of achieving that. This is my understanding of magic or miracles. This is how cooking a meal for someone, writing to them, rubbing their shoulders, or any other symbolic gesture can amount to a massive shift in the world around us. The universe will find a way for our will, the details of gesture and the events that transpire are in the hands of god, as he will thread our blessings into the world in the most appropriate way. We always say to ourselves, just let go. We cannot comprehend the fullness of these mysterious ways. This is a level of cause and effect that is extremely subtle and powerfully. All we can do is offer ourselves, intend from our heart, and surrender to whatever manifests as being the highest good.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Bruce: You have a wonderful way to perceive your own actions and experiences and relate them to the spiritual realm. Congratulations on your progress. Your reactions to your life are extremely perceptible and your ego is humble enough to question this clarity. Postings like yours keep me coming back to learn. The great part for me is that if I see these great things in you they must be in me also. I guess that in spite of myself and my battles with the ego, I have learned immensely since I came to this site. Your Brother in Learning.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Hi BruceIn response to this question:>>I wonder, can I take on the Karma of another and that manifest in the field around?Let me put forth my definition of karma and you can decide if this applies to you. Karma is your own doing. If you get hit by bus for example, is it you who labels thisevent as bad. When you see events happening, it is you who labels them as " good " or " bad " and then if you label them long enough it automatically goes into your habit. The longer you label an event as good or bad the stronger the karma willbe rooted in your ego. For me karma is part of the ego, and not part of the soul.So you create your karma based on how your ego judges events that happen around you. In Buddhist terms, to get rid of chains of karma is not to judge any event, but let thembe exactly what they are: events.On Sun, Apr 19, 2009 at 11:49 AM, bruce_oom <bruce_oom wrote: Hi everyone, K. continues to work, speaking to me in ever new and creative ways.My sense of connection to what is happening around me is becoming ever more meaningful and its fascinating how it all unfolds.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Hi Bruce, I can relate to your story, but from a different perspective. There was a time, and it sometimes goes on now, whenever I would say something, it would be taken out of context or would just come out wrong. At the same time, it felt like I had a lump in my throat. My mentor at the time was reading everything I said out of context and told me it was about 'truth'. I am a 'what you see is what you get' kind of person, however, people were looking and labelling me in a quite different way. It also seemed to me, that things were no going my way. I was given psalm 70 to read, which nailed what was happening in my life. My output was something of a spilleage in terms of a metaphor. My throat lump was based on my communication and being misunderstood. I just had a difficult time with it...it was just a moment in time for me and has now passed. I no longer have the issues with 5th chakra and since joining this group and adding my posts, has done wonders. It was like I required an outlet to communicate what was occurring to me since my awakening...and there was nobody in my near vacinity to be empathetic, or just be an ear to what was occurring. I told the Dr's what was happening and they put me on med's. My wife thinks this 'stuff' is against our Catholic faith; I dare not mention this to my friends- they'll think I'm a quack; my family thinks that this 'stuff' is the making of a cult following...etc, etc. This group is the only outlet that really understands and I thank God for it. I'm learning sooo much from this group and all the experiences that it has shed positive light on the road ahead. Bless you all and be well, Ernie , " bruce_oom " <bruce_oom wrote: > > Hi everyone, > > K. continues to work, speaking to me in ever new and creative ways.My sense of connection to what is happening around me is becoming ever more meaningful and its fascinating how it all unfolds.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 dear ErnieNamastei can relate to the things you spoke of about opening to the fifth chakra. . .and have found it to be a most interesting place of revealing. . .for me it was the chakra that brought back the cellular evolutionary journey from physcial conception to the present . . .i love the "sucking" ( i do not know the proper term) reflex and how it has guided the evolutionary journey from unicellular to the creation we are today, i experientially wonder. . .but as i read it was not my 5th but the 4th that popped open and just wanted to say, you are a beautiful soul and your sharing touched deep in my heart. . .i am glad you are within this group and that you have found this group. . .having sacred connection can make the journey a little more kind and gentle. . .and dear Ernie perhaps soon the day shall come when all that do not understand will know you by your fruit and and the love and grace that flows from one that has been given the allowance of the deeper mysteries of Kundalin or the blessing of the Holy Spirit. . .i have found along the way the teachings of Christ have been amplified by the experience of Kundalini Ma. . . For me, Mother Mary and Mary Magdalen have become expressions of the Divine Mother Goddess that loves all the children and loves through all the religions. . .perhaps the day shall come when people like you will lead the way back into deeper levels truth that is waiting for all. . . .the Church needs folks like you. . .they just are being challenged to let go of some of the old these days before they can recognize ones like yourself. . .the day shall come. . .may your day be beautiful and blessed ordinary sparrow , "boltonben111" <erniebeneventi wrote:>> Hi Bruce,> > I can relate to your story, but from a different perspective.> There was a time, and it sometimes goes on now, whenever I would say something, it would be taken out of context or would just come out wrong. At the same time, it felt like I had a lump in my throat. My mentor at the time was reading everything I said out of context and told me it was about 'truth'. I am a 'what you see is what you get' kind of person, however, people were looking and labelling me in a quite different way. It also seemed to me, that things were no going my way. I was given psalm 70 to read, which nailed what was happening in my life.> My output was something of a spilleage in terms of a metaphor. My throat lump was based on my communication and being misunderstood. I just had a difficult time with it...it was just a moment in time for me and has now passed. I no longer have the issues with 5th chakra and since joining this group and adding my posts, has done wonders. It was like I required an outlet to communicate what was occurring to me since my awakening...and there was nobody in my near vacinity to be empathetic, or just be an ear to what was occurring.> I told the Dr's what was happening and they put me on med's. My wife thinks this 'stuff' is against our Catholic faith; I dare not mention this to my friends- they'll think I'm a quack; my family thinks that this 'stuff' is the making of a cult following...etc, etc. This group is the only outlet that really understands and I thank God for it.> I'm learning sooo much from this group and all the experiences that it has shed positive light on the road ahead.> > Bless you all and be well,> Ernie> > > > , "bruce_oom" bruce_oom@ wrote:> >> > Hi everyone,> > > > K. continues to work, speaking to me in ever new and creative ways.My sense of connection to what is happening around me is becoming ever more meaningful and its fascinating how it all unfolds.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Thank you and Blessings Ordinary Sparrow. I reflected on what you mentioned about the 4th chakra and meditated upon them, asked God,K, Shatki, and the Archangels to reveal to me what is really going on. The very next day, I was watching a video clip of David Wilcox and the answer was revealed. David said that upon an awakening and the realization of a higher consciousness, the heart chakra opens up and everything becomes unconditional love. If the person isn't strong enough or doesn't have the 'wisdom' (5th chakra)to deal with it, they will feel blockages at the 5th chakra. WOW! K communicated to me to work on my wisdom and strength and to allow the unconditional love to flow freely and openly with wisdom and confidence. The challenge is set and is now up to me to find the ways and means of obtaining my desires. As states " The education is ongoing " . Blessings and Be Well, Ernie , " ordinarysparrow " <ordinarysparrow wrote: > > dear Ernie > > Namaste > > i can relate to the things you spoke of about opening to the fifth > chakra. . .and have found it to be a most interesting place of > revealing. . .for me it was the chakra that brought back the cellular > evolutionary journey from physcial conception to the present . . .i > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 dear ErnieNamasteThanks for sharing your experience Ernie, and the information from David Wilcox is most interesting. . .as i read your comment it was a reminder of something Marion Woodman (a noted Jungian analyst) says about the soul/spirit union and i have gone back and re-read this several times during the K journey for i like the imagery. . ." The soul, for me, is divine part of us that is embodied in the physical form for a few years. Eventually it is released, but I see the soul as the embodiment part. I see spirit as the energy, the disembodied energy that can come in union in the body..Example: A great dancer like Nureyey can prepare his instrument. His muscles can be in perfect shape through his attention and his concentration. So, his consciousness, his lighting his body---which for me is the soul----can be a perfect instrument. But, he's a great dancer when spirit is in union with that instrument. The leap is the union of soul and spirit. Soul work is about the soul becoming strong enough to accept the union. If it is weak, or if the body is not conscious, the spirit could come in and cause a psychotic episode. It's like a Rolls Royce engine in a Volkswagen car...I think of the soul as feminine because its the receiver---in both men and women. The artist, the poet has to have a receiver and just hope to God that the Spirit will come and touch into soul so there will be a poem that comes of the union or a piece of music or art. It's in that surrender to the transcendent, that art is created."All of this to ensure that the soul is strong enough to accept the union is a beautiful way of framing those times when Ma pushes us to our edges. . . Such Mercy! . . . Such Grace!. . . . . . Such Love. . . .Poetry in motion. . . have a blessed weekend Ernieordinary sparrow , "boltonben111" <erniebeneventi wrote:>> Thank you and Blessings Ordinary Sparrow.> > I reflected on what you mentioned about the 4th chakra and meditated upon them, asked God,K, Shatki, and the Archangels to reveal to me what is really going on.> The very next day, I was watching a video clip of David Wilcox and the answer was revealed.
