spiritual breakthrough

Post by Nowak » Mon May 03, 2004 12:08 am

I recently had the most powerful spiritual energy that I have ever imagined flow through me. Multiple people were part of this and shared in the experience. Some were old friends, some were new friends. I could write pages and pages on this, but really I am looking for some direction for my thought process. I figured my journey should start in my community. Can anyone direct me to some one to talk to about this? this was the most amazing experience of my life. Even more amazing than my first two burns. I now have faith. I am in a very unfarmilliar spot. I have never really seeked spiritual guidance before. Now It seems like the only place to go. Where do I start? Please help.
Love

Don't read too much into that post Nowak. The number (wrong number by the way) was the one in that Ramone's(?) song "657-5309". Spiritial help is kinda dicy advice to say the least. Lay down here on my leather couch and describe your experience. It's probably something to do with your mother, your dog, or your life as an in the closet clown that's causing you this undo stress.
Here, take two bananas ImageImage and email me in the morning.

Nowak,

As one who has recently (In geologic time) been "Enlightened" (Spiritual boot up the butt) let me just say this: Don't follow leaders, watch 'yer parkin' meters (Thanks, Bob). You don't need anyone to tell you what happened to you, (except, of course, for the Mockers, who help to keep it all in perspective :oops: ) because every fucking thing you need is inside. Pay Attention!! Don't be a follower... you'll wind up with your nose up someone else's ass, having forgotten what you discovered.

And don't stay in one place too long. Statis and death are closely related. Life is movement... plus, it's harder for the bastards to take aim at ya' ...

Life is good!! Let's keep it that way!

1- Increase your health insurance.
2- and your death insurance too.
3- find a good urn to place your ashes in.
4- can you trade me some of that shit you took at BM.
5- let Faith go from your under groundchamber she has her own life to live.
6- Don't follow anyone for if the Gods wish to speak to you. you will need no guidence.
7- if they want to kill someone or yourself, take health insurance and admit yourself to a sanitorium!

I have spoken!

Probably Goo Goo Dolls, they do a cover of it live but they've never recorded it.

Nowak........trust life man! when your vibe starts perculating up, be careful of your thoughts.....thoughts have alot a power especially if you're amped up.
So then think good thoughts, click your heels 3 times and say, 'there's no place like.... wait a minute...back up.. think good thoughts like.."the universe will now send to me all loving, high, holy personal contacts to assist me in my new journey...the universe is a very big place and all things are possible" Enlightened beings will now be magnetised to me and help me in the best possible way" this will really really happen!!!!!!!!! believe it.

Chris, great post.
BM is an amazing place for all kinds of experiences, from scarey to sublime. Your post gives too few details about what you and friends experienced and what specific questions you're trying to answer. I've been studying these things for over 12 years, and I'll try to help. I don't completely agree with Samtzu, but flexibility and useful skepticism certainly applies. When it comes to esoterics, most so-called gurus and "authorities" are fairly clueless and misleading.
Oh damn, I'm running out of time to complete my post. I'm actually in the middle of writing a book about this stuff - everything from the mystical journey, the alien abduction experience, the shadow, crop circles, archetypes and mythology. If you feel comfortable I'd love to hear more details about the experience and how it effected your friends.
That's all for now.
