@ajasatya I actually had never heard of that term makyo until you used it just now, but that could very well be exactly what this experience was. I really respect you and your opinions by the way, you’re very helpful.

@ajasatya I definitely agree with you. I struggle with emotional swings and that’s something I need to work on in order to continue to grow spiritually. Wisdom and Virtue are things I value and must continue to develop.

I finally understand. The true Self (not the body, mind or ego) IS God, and we are all this One Self, One Consciousness. I highly recommend reading some of his books if you haven’t already, they’re extremely eye opening. On par with much of what Leo talks about when he says “you are God.”

@ajasatya Thank you!! That cleared up a little bit of confusion. I feel like I’ve had this realization in the past but I lost it... what’s your perspective on that experience?

For the past four years I’ve felt a deep pain in the center of my hands, feet and right side. They are not visIble. It usually comes and goes throughout the day. It started roughly 9 months after my Kundalini awakening while looking at a picture of crucifixion. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?

@Frylock It’s ultimately all predetermined. Everything. So you being mad at your lack of free will is also predetermined. Why? It’s part of the Divine Plan that we can’t fully comprehend as individual human beings. Just learn to accept it and life actually becomes much smoother.

@AlphaAbundance Realize that this attitude comes from a place of ego and a false sense of separation from others. We are all One, and helping others generates positive energy that will benefit you and everyone else in the future, even if it doesn’t happen right away.

I should have specified, I use the word God and the Self synonymously ?

@jayfrost321 Everyone’s experience of death itself will be unique, but we all ultimately fall back into the Infinite Love of God. The concept of hell and damnation is an outdated scare story designed to control people. It’s not real. Materialistic people do not get damned to hell because they didn’t awaken, since everything is predetermined.

@Druid420 If you haven’t heard of Ramesh Balsekar, I highly recommend looking into his work. He teaches that a huge component of what we call enlightenment is the complete acceptance that you have no true free will at all and everything is predetermined by God’s will (or Cosmic Law).

@SQAAD “Karma” is just energy. And your karma is predetermined by God. Whatever you have to deal with in life, is predetermined. It’s possible that the afterlife involves transcendence into another “body”, but it might not be what you’re thinking. It may be another realm of existence entirely, though in reality unless God gives us some mystical insight into the nature of death and what comes after, no one can really know. Mental and pranic bodies are different layers of your consciousness that exist in higher vibrations or “octaves” of existence, but are linked directly to your physical body.

@Schahin There are impersonal levels of God’s consciousness that have predetermined literally every event in existence, at least in our universe and potentially just up until a certain point in the cosmic evolution.

Over the past several months, I’ve experienced a profound shift in consciousness. I’ve had mini awakenings then slipped back into an atheistic/rational worldview. This time, though, my awakening seems relatively stable. Some of my first posts on this forum were done from the state of disbelief and unconsciousness, but now I’m more permanently recognizing that God has the control over my life and literally everything in reality. My body is a part of God’s body, God is experiencing through me. It’s as if my mind is purging negative belief systems at the same time.

One of his best videos in my opinion

@Inliytened1 I don’t currently have a consistent practice. This seems to be happening spontaneously as a part of my life. I believe it is related to my experiences with (involuntary/accidental) Kundalini awakening or arousal.

@Schahin God’s Will is final. Everything that has ever happened, is happening now, and will happen in the future is God’s Will and God’s perfect Plan. No one has free will, and that includes thoughts. This can only be realized as part of the Will of God for you as an individual. All acts of evil are actually done out of the highest Love. Does this mean you should go commit heinous crimes and atrocities? Absolutely not. If it’s not in your nature, you won’t anyways. The ultimate, underlying Reality is God, which is pure Infinite Love. You are That.

Five years ago, I did some energy meditations and yoga which caused a significant amount of energy to move from the base of my spine into my skull, where it currently rests. Since then, there has been a constant pressure inside of my head 24/7 accompanied by a swirling energy vortex-like sensation. I’ve been examined by a neurologist and had multiple scans done on my brain, everything seems normal. Every now and then I get full body bliss that is deeply spiritual in nature. I feel like I may have developed one or two psychic siddhis throughout the course of the last few years. I was diagnosed Bipolar two years ago, but the more I look into the commonalities between Kundalini, psychosis, shamanism and spiritual awakening, I tend to get a bit confused as to what has happened to me. Could it be something other than Kundalini? Has anyone here had any similar experiences? Any information or knowledge is welcome.

@Wlangr That’s very interesting. Something I forgot to mention is that, with the energy in my head, it sometimes causes extreme pressure in the area of the forehead and middle of the brain commonly associated with the third eye and pineal gland, respectively. Then the center of my brain will “crackle” and I’ll feel this powerful sensation of vibration, similar to when your stomach rumbles. Sometimes it feels like something is draining in my brain. And I used to be obsessed with the number 666. I’d see it everywhere. Many of my unspoken synchronicities involved 666.

@Wlangr I’ve experienced the profound capacity to telepathically communicate with entities and even a few other people. Also mystical vision where you can perceive the higher realms visually. I don’t really feel like I’ve mastered these abilities at all whatsoever, and my current working model is that God/Reality controls whether or not you have one of these capacities or experiences. I’ve also experienced synchronicities so mind blowing that I was literally in shock from them. Stuff like thinking of a random triple number then seeing it on a license plate or sign immediately afterword. That’s happened to me at least 8 times. There have been many more mind-boggling synchronicities than just that stuff, virtually all of which were very spiritual and mystical in nature, but I won’t go into it here.

@Inliytened1 My therapist, who has worked with hundreds of people who were diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and has a background in yoga and spirituality, told me that he has yet to come across one person who has come to him with this issue who didn’t have some kind of spiritual crisis or so-called “spiritual delusions”. I’m honestly not surprised. In many other cultures people who go through these kinds of experiences are generally considered spiritually gifted (as you put it) and are often trained to become shamans. Interesting stuff. @zeroISinfinity I’ve experienced literally everything you’ve just said and more. It’s a pretty fascinating evolution that I’m going through, although it has been wrought with pain and some delusion. There have been times where my entire body literally vibrates like a massage chair. Hasn’t happened in years though.

If god is omnipresent, God is within you. Wouldn’t this mean that God is in control of you as well, out of necessity? Recently, I’ve personally experienced the predetermined nature of my life. It’s a powerful insight that usually happens when you experience extreme retroactive synchronicities as well as current ones.

@AlldayLoop I couldn’t agree more, and thanks for your support!

@AlldayLoop Good insight. I’ve learned that the best way to deal with fear is definitely to face it head on. Eventually, even if it takes awhile, the things that once bothered you no longer have the same hold on you. I’ve also dealt with anxiety and what my doctor calls bipolar disorder, these days I tend to look at it as more of a blessing than a curse.

In my own experience, I’ve found that while meditating or on psychedelics the unconscious mind can produce hyper-vivid fears which are sometimes accompanied by hallucinations associated with the fear. It’s nothing to really worry about, just your shadow producing the deeper level of your mind’s fears for you to deal with while in the process of growing spiritually. Hope this helped.
