Discussion with the FilmMakers - Freedom Through Faith
Wogglette of the woods said:
Ive been in a bad head space the last few days, nothing i can really put my finger on but it was still there. I sat down this evening and watched the awakening trilogy and revelations, that bad head space is gone, clarity has returned, the message has centred me.. truely we are awakening as one.
its also helped me realise how much i have to learn still. how i can understand something yet to truely become one with that knowledge is something else.. i understand letting go of comparison but embracing letting go of comparison is something im finding more difficult. a valuable lesson for me
greetings woggle,
and much gratitude for the openness and authenticity
of your shared comments on your own journey of
awakening, and on the film "Revelations".
concerning your mention that you have "been in a bad head space
the last few days" it is helpful to consider a few different things here,
1) one being that these ups and downs are a necessary part of the journey,
and are experienced by ALL of us in varying degrees; and so
there is no need to come down on yourself when you find that you
are in a funk. smilingly be aware of your current state, knowing
that it will pass.
2) also consider that as we approach the Shift these darker,
sadder, more murky or even aggressive feelings that we
seem to feel without any reason and which we
"cannot really put our finger on" are actually not our feelings,
but are the collective thought forms and energies of
others which are (and will continue) to pick up intensity
as we approach the shift.
know this, and again, simply observe the sensation
without reacting to it, knowing that it will pass.
and in regards to your question of "how i can understand something
yet to truely become one with that knowledge is something else?
i understand letting go of comparison but embracing letting go
of comparison is something im finding more difficult?"
again this occurs with all of us on the Path, because there are
two different types of knowledge, or wisdom. 1) one is Intellectual
Wisdom, which allows us to understand something by reading a book,
or hearing someone speak. this wisdom is like a line drawn in the sand.
it is there, and can be see, but it is of the mind, and has not yet
imprinted itself on the soul.
in order for wisdom to root itself in the soul it must be learned through
experience. this is 2) Experiential Wisdom which is like a line carved
in rock.
and though our films can only open the door for Intellectual Wisdom,
we believe that the events of the coming Shift present a tremendous
opportunity for humanity to gain an experiential understanding of Oneness;
in which we will learn through experience how to 'let go' of comparison.
that said, there are a number of established practices that will help people
have an experiential understanding of non-duality, flow and oneness,
some of which are:
1) vipassana meditation - a buddhist meditation practice taught in a 10 day silent course. courses are non-religious, non-sectarian, and are by donation. FREE if you do not have the means to pay. there are centers all over the world and you can learn more, and/or sign up for courses here: www.dhamma.org
from my personal experience, this is the clearest fastest way to gain an experiential understanding of the truth.
2) yoga - meaning to "yolk" to join, or to make one. when practiced with proper understanding, where the yogi, simply opens their awareness to all that is occuring, being felt, or thought, without judging, thinking or comparing, one learns to realize that all simply IS.
3) tai chi - the same experience of flow, perfection and awareness can come from tai chi as with yoga, if practiced with proper intent and awareness.
Please note: there are other practices that will also serve to provide an experiential understanding of Truth, however, these are the ones with which i have direct experience.
many thanks for your love and willingness to walk the path. you are exactly where you are meant to be.
