Do You Believe in Miracles or Magic?

[Azt]

This is a serie(s) of YouTube videos that I think it is worth to take a look or be familiar with. Not sure if it is already on PA but I did a search by the title and could not find any, if it is already here, please moderators merge or delete it.

Keep an open mind and heart when you see this series, do not get caught on the "religion" side of it, I mean some people (included me) runs away when a video makes reference to the bible or try to christianize someone BUT (and this is a BIG BUT) this series have a very valid point, which is we are being played the same OLD story that bible points out, Tower of Babel, fallen angels ... but modernized to our days. It is like a remake of the past and because men forget easily, I think it is worth a re-cap by watching this guy channel/series that goes from 1 to 8. Below is just the "trailer"

I can tell you most definitely without a doubt , I believe in miracles , toooo many have happened to me , If I wrote a book about them , you would call my life fantasy , but it is reality ... Here is just one month March 1 1990 , My then wife needed 2.98 cents for diapers , we were struggling 24 yr old newly weds, she cried in the walmart , not enough money for diapers ... As she was leaving the area , A total stranger walked up and put exactly 2.98 in her right hand and walked away , I got a call , hey a stranger walked up and put money in my hand at walmart and when I counted it , it came to exactly 2.98... later that night , she said , I would love tacos for dinner , I wish we had cheese and salsa and blah,blah , five minutes later there was a knock at the door, we opened it and no one was there except a bag of food , we took it inside and in the bag was taco shells, cheese , salsa , and all the little things she was just going on about ... The following week , they shut my power off for non payment, we took a candle light bath, lost my job the next day , she broke down , two days later I got another job that came with a home , free water, free power and when I took her to see it , my friends had moved my things already to the new house and we walked up on the porch and a friend of mine handed me my new house keys and my wife couldn't believe it , when we were together I always spoke of FAITH AND she always had doubts, even with time after time of miracles happening all around us ... She wanted 500 bucks to go home for a visit , from North Carolina to Oklahoma , she once again does the boo hoo , I said have some faith , the next day she calls me and says , I was cleaning the top drawer and found money in it, it was exactly 500 dollars , once again I said just have faith , It does work ... you might not get your wants, but most times you get what you need ...I could go on and on ... the job I got that came with a house was working for the one of the richest families on earth ... The Rockefeller private ranch in cameron N.C . forget religion , the writing they teach in the bible comes from MUCH OLDER writings that have a codex built in them , when you speak the words , it releases energy in the spirit , I have experienced it since I was 25 yrs old ... FAITH IS RELEASED BY YOUR SPEAKING , god never made anything until he SAID IT ... and god said -let there be light , and behold there was light, and god said ... etc THINKING creates vibration in you , SPEAKING releases vibration out into the world around you ... our thoughts and words can influence the world we live in ... I feel driven to write this stuff ... most times I let people stumble and figure it out for themselves through life experience , How we think is important and how we say things even more important but , it all starts with our thinking ... get how the ptb use the war for the mind ???

nothing to add, other than "Same here!!!"
Whoever set this whole telepathic universe up,
deserves our praise, and gratitude.

I used to believe in miricles but now I just believe there are thing we have no explanation for YET, All things are vibrational in nature it is hoped that we will tune in an understand in (Dare I say) time.

I can tell you most definitely without a doubt , I believe in miracles...

Magic and/or miracle is the term used for something we do not understand but did happened.

yes I believe.

This small story occured to me somewhen in 2000. That year was also quite turbulent year of my life, full of veriaty of events and experiences. That period of my life I was still an active climber doing also some other outdoor or extreme sport activities as parashooting, diving, free ride skiing etc.

I was climbing with my colleagues and some mountain rescue service friends at Little Fatra in Eastern Slovakia. We also trained some rescue techniques that day. I had a break among stations which we set up for our practises on slopes and around spread rock towers. I decided to have a short bouldering practise by my own not to waiste time while waiting for my turn, and not get bored. The rock, which I selected for that fun activity, was situated on a steep hill side in woods. Quite harsh terraine with not easy access. I enjoyed bouldering for a while. After some minutes of my practise I reached a point where I was above some 3 m high above ground , and had to choose to decend or just jump on a slope to get safe or go around a corner and continue free climbing that was a bit risky since I was without a rope, without any safety. There was a detph beneath which if I continued I would have been exposed in the wall of the tower to some 20 m depth with some spread sharp boulders beneath me on a ground. I felt thrilled though, full of adrenaline and joy as well. I concluded to continue. It didn´t seem to me so difficult technically. I was confident I could do it. So, I continued.

When I was about to reach the top of the tower there was a need to do a bit more difficult move. I almost managed to do it. When at one moment I hanged on large block pulling myself up to finalize my ascend when all of sudden I started feeling the whole block started slowly moving out of tower´s wall. I thought just huua that´s it probably for me, however, let´s not give up. After that at once the whole big block some tun probably heavy speeded up with me still attached to it being pulled out by my weigh and gravity.

At that moment, everything froze, everything became some way elastic, timespace was just part of physical reality, I saw it as some kind of holograph, my mind expended, I felt my consciousness moves outside myself, expending, expending, and expending, there was no end of it, continuing throughout Universe further and further on, feeling and touching stars, planets, other beings. Everything was encompassed and within. Everything was still, quiet, everything was One. I had a smile on my face, feeling peace, complete, connected with everything that exists or existed, and what would be.

The motion of the catapulted rock was still although ongoing, like in a frame by a frame screened movie, which I was by some part of myself observing in a very slooooooooooooow motion.... I observed that happening all the time just in pure wonder what was that asking myself.

I felt presence of something or somebody...

Suddenly, with that question what was that I was back in my rational mind and I realized I was hanging on a very norrow edge watching that block falling down and hitting ground with huge laud bang totally blasted, shattered in small pieces all around. I was stunned since I knew I made impossible movement disatteching myself from this block, being more than less beneath of that heavy falling mass "managing" to jump in the air a side with a turn like super some kind of super gymnast and under a crazy angle to reach that norrow small hold...

That was just an Impossible movement, impossible coordination, I wonderred. How did I do it? What just occurred? I was not a bad climber, though, frankly, not so good to manage something like that to save myself from that position, however, I did it anyway. After that I just traversed on a hill side from this position and stepped on the ground swetty heavilly breathing. I checked myself finding out my hand and one finger was torned, smashed, bleeding.

My friends stopped their activites after that laud sound of destruction running to me. When they saw me and overlooked a situation they could not have believed I was alive...Neither me.

That was, I guess even now after 13 years still wonderring, a pure miracle what happened. After some time I realized I was not alone that moment while in the air with that block falling down.

I believe in miracles too my friends ...as same as in magic. That one about magic I narrate for you some other time.

Ghostrider,

Faith indeed is released by our speaking and thinking and even greater feeling it ! Your stories are exactly what Neville Goddard teaches according to his interpretation of scripture.........the christ they speak of in the bible is the human imagination.....this is the codex......we are able to release a spiritual spark from a higher aspect of ourselves into this 3d world............

Thanks for the story! :)

I too used to be an active rock climber, and I once had a very similar experience when solo climbing (i.e. no rope) and fell from the top move of the climb as the massive rock I was holding on to detached from the top and we both fell together towards nasty, sloping, rocky ground 50 ft (15m) below.

Time slowed to a standstill, and while falling I was able to think super-clearly and push the rock away from me. It would have killed me or (at least) crushed my leg into splinters if it had fallen on me.

I landed on the sloping, rocky ground, and just bounced like a ball. I walked away without even a small scratch. My friends, who had watched all this from a distance, came running over as fast as they could, convinced I must be seriously injured. They could not believe what had happened.

I actually have a number of stories like that. One when I'd fallen out of my kayak and was about to be swept over a huge waterfall in Norway, and another in a car facing a certain head-on collision. Much more, as well!

But in all my life, I've never hurt myself even in the slightest. I take no conscious responsibility for this, but I'm given to understand that I have throughout been protecting myself with abilities that I'm not aware I have, which somehow kick in absolutely at the moment they're needed.

I have throughout been protecting myself with abilities that I'm not aware I have, which somehow kick in absolutely at the moment they're needed.

Hmm interesting way of putting it, For me, this is a great description of an "exceptional ability". Perhaps a crossover with the thread - Exceptional psychic abilities in exceptional people
(http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?64028-Exceptional-psychic-abilities-in-exceptional-people)

IMO
Miracles and magic are not well understood and both exist or we would not have words to associate.

I have also had quite a few strange situations where I should had been injured, in one when I was very young, I had fallen down a steep slope and had not one scratch. A family member watched it happen an ran over too me with jaw dropped wondering how in the world I was not hurt, checking my body for cuts, and I had not a scratch on me. In another instance I was driving while distracted by conversation with the person next to me. Suddenly the mood changed, a car had slammed on the breaks in front of me - in mid-sentence I turned my head forward and quickly shifted the car into another lane in one swift move then turned back to the person and continued my sentence. This took about a second.
Within 10-15 seconds afterward I got shaky and quite spooked as my adrenaline began to run. I was more than freaked as I had reacted perfectly without thinking or even consciously observing my surroundings, yet somehow did the perfect thing to save us from harm. I could not believe how I had done it or knew what to do, I did not have time to see what was happening. Some call this situational awareness, but I am not so sure it can be that simple.

Based on the presumed viewpoint of that a miracle is 'something that shouldn't naturally happen',
I can't see much of anything that wouldn't somewhere be miraculous. I think you have to look outside of your criteria to find them. Magic to me is just a pointless word. Making illusions to disguise an illusion.
Guides take the wheel of your car all the time. Or make you miss rides that crash. That's just necessary.
Guys walk up out of nowhere with good news. What do you want to call a miracle?
Maybe it's enough to say 'it was nothing I did', which I think is a lot of the point anyway.

A 'miracle' is like a vertical jolt of Reality in a linear story. A gap in time where eternity slips in. It's a Divine event,
but it was you who made the opening. It might be as innocuous as that there was something occurring that you didn't know about, and it made you happy. Would it then not be a miracle if it made you sad? What if sadness was what you most needed to feel?
It could be something like you ran out of thoughts that could describe your dilemma, and there was a pause. Then perhaps a solution. But maybe not. Sometimes a pause can be very revealing.

Somehow you ask. Maybe through need with no BSing yourself, or on your knees or whatever.
Sometimes you're really screwing up, and that can be a form of asking. And it's the most effective way to get your attention.
It's mostly stored away pretty quickly, and it's on to not asking again. But a little more out of control.
You ask, you give up control (your agenda) and you receive. All those things might take some practice.
Probably the agenda part.

If it doesn't change you somehow, then it wasn't a miracle. Your mind is powerfully conjuring up escape hatches also.
You should learn to know the difference. If you can, the escape hatches will teach you something too.
