What are the questions you are most driven to find answers to?

[Kalamos]

Is there life after physical death, and what is it like?

I like to think it's like I've heard described in "Journey of Souls" by Michael Newton.

[shaberon]

Where do I position myself in order to do more of the good works that used to find natural outlets?

Q . .

Is "spiritual" darkness a nothing (absence of 'light'), or a something ( an energetic phenomenon we ignore at out peril ) ?

i offer not really an "answer" since that will only arise within yourself, but my own reflections/thoughts concerning your Q~

"spiritual darkness" is a phenomenon we have misunderstood since "our overall (culture/society/"yuga"/totality of all human knowledge pertaining this current timeframe/etc" have ingrained biases in-regards to our view upon "darkness"... simply misinterpreted by false pretenses/representations.. you will find what you are seeking as you go along on your journey, you are already at the entrance so-to-speak~

just sharing my thoughts on this Q

cheers

I'd love to know where my socks go?

I have a draw full of single socks that were a once upon a time a pair. Albeit, one of the pair, I like to believe gets fed up... (especially considering their torrid relationship to my often odorous feet) and decides to embark on a spiritual journey, thereby traversing through a spatial mini-black hole to a Utopian woolly-based sock-planet to gain a sock-like karma and further self awareness.

My underpants on the other hand just divorce me and walk out under protest.

Trying to understand Time.

I remember in the 70s I bought a book on UFOs and there was the story of a man abducted on a spaceship. In a conversation with the alien abuctor, the aliean remarked " Time does not exist". I was impressed and thought that had to be a profound statement but I had no understanding of it. At that time there were very few abdctions and contactees and this statement about time only became more familiar decades after.

Nowadays we talk about timelines but I don't believe it because I think it is impossible to have branching in every possible action. There would be just too many timelines and this would make prophecizing impossible. I have some idea about its meaning when I liken it to tracks in a record. Time is forever existing. But I want to understand time better. Another seemingly possible fact is we can change the past, if we change the past, we change the present. This appears hard to grasp, but I somehow think it is to some extend true. Can someone enlighten me on these questions?

Is there an energetic grid trapping and manipulating human conciousness on earth and is this reptilian tech?

After death are we tricked (reptilians) and drawn to the white light where we are so overwhelmed / confused that our soul blindley agrees to a memory wipe before being sent back to earth and inserted into a newborn in a never ending cycle. Or can we program ourselves before death to simply turn away from the light and request to go back to source creator with all memories intact and recovered- whatever that means, lol

If soul recycling does occure what is the purpose - loosh energy for these entities or something else

Prophesying is basically a game of chance, which is 5o%. I mean this in a most serious way, as if someone who forecasts does so in a semi-professional manner at the very least. With a chance of being correct 5o% of the time, the chance of being incorrect is the same. Many renowned predictors, even the likes of Nostradamus were only correct about half of the time. Forecasting also is conducted in business often times with sales professionals forecasting sales generated for, say the next 3o-9o day increments. These types of forecasting are also subject to chance, because even if a client indicates a pending sale say in 3o days, something could happen on the buyer's end that is out of their control and delay or even cancel the sale. Then the sales forecast is really rubbish or potentially overly optimistic or even conservative depending on the personality. Consider weather forecasting and it's idiosyncrasies. A general forecast is generally in the ballpark for about 3 days into the future, even with all the test equipment and experience, weather forecasters have at their disposal.

My comprehension of the past, present, and future is a little different from your statement. I understand that I cannot change the past unless I change the present. All of our decisions are made in the present, the past then therefore fixed until the new past is formed from the present. I understand I can influence the future, but not necessarily create the exact future I might be wishing for.

Good decisions in the present = a better past and a better future. Not everything is derived from decisions, but this is the area we have control over. The aspects out of our control will indeed be a factor as well and should be taken into consideration, at the very least: something out of our control could happen. How do you respond to 'those factors out of your control' says something about your decision-making abilities.

This might not be the answer, but it is how I have developed my thinking processes regarding your questions.

What is the purpose of life? Really?

Seriously people. I would think we all know here that is isn't really a good question. Its like asking 100 questions in 1 as its so vague.

the best answer is then must respond to the generality. The purpose of life is to experience (ALL). Just as someone mentioned, to explore infinite possibility. From there, you could talk about loads of smaller purposes we make up, but it all comes down to a desire to experience.

Someone once told me the purpose is to procreate. Yea, but for what? lol Obviously to experience, procreation is just the means for that.

There are much much more interesting questions.

1. Is memory limited like our brain? Or is that the illusion? But how could the source have infinite memory potential. All manifested theatres that get played out are unique, and would just keep accumulating more and more data that would get lost in a sea of information. The idea of being saved could be very literal. Those nasties that are opposite to life, they might face deletion eventually as they cut themselves off from truth/reality. But even the saved ones approaches infinity.

2.I had an experience EXACTLY like windows operating system. I saw a reality form in front of me. I could shift between the 2 realities by pulling either one to the forefront while the other was background. The difference was that it was 3D , not 2D like windows. I couldnt focus on both. Is this limited focus a human limitation or is it universal. In other words, Is it possible to experience a million events at once, or the whole universe? Someone said that in higher dimensions we experience much more at once but we dont fully experience details like we do here. So, this life is a way to sort of slow down and deeply experience a focused part of reality. So, then is this sort of a natural law on the limit of resolution of experience? A law the us and source must accept? Interesting to ponder.

3. Sometimes I have this deep feeling of nostalgia combined with love. Like where you really go into a memory and miss it so much and feel this intense heart energy that starts getting close to unbearable. From some psychedelic experiences , I know that it has to do with the fact that death gives us our true appreciation for life. Its like you find love within death. My question is how deep does that feeling go. It seems like I get to the point of uncomfortability. Like, there just is no recourse for this yearning nostalgia of what is forever gone. Or is it part of my ignorance that isnt able to reach a deeper point of clarity. I'm sure you all know what im talking about. My feeling is that it is because it is a paradox of opposite feelings of sadness/miss/yearning and love. That balance is what source is and that experience is a way to really move toward source, but being a flawed human, I just can't handle going to far. Its a very complex feeling experience and bewildering.

4. The universe is set up to experience all of the journeys on all levels, but it seems that it would be designed to lead up to some kind of really cool wonderous surprise. Some may imagine some kind of nirvana where they feel total bliss but really cant see or do anything in such a blurred out state. Kinda like sex. Is that the ultimate state of bliss, that is based off of feeling. Or are we looking for a more complete experience of all levels at once. Like being liberated in the body. So, like half in the body and half beyond. That brings much more interesting possibilities than just soaking in blissful immaterial realms. Such a person is feeling blissful but also enjoying a show and witnessing how that radiant energy and power massively effects everyone around. Or maybe its a similar type of liberated perfect balance life in some kind of weird astral realm more exciting and fast moving than earth. It makes me sad that I can't achieve this. Im a mercurial person and comedy is a big part of my life. highly evolved beings Ive seen are funny and joyful, but none seem like they were super funny before awakening. Honestly, this is a dream of mine. To see a liberated being who was extremely funny before liberation. It would bring me a lot of joy to see how funny I could be with the power of now/presence. You see what i mean. Liberated beings are obvious all different. But to see one who was born with a talent for humor and charm would be a real fricken treat to behold.

Will we ever have our questions answered?

[Wind]

Ever since childhood I have asked the question "why" and after reaching the age of able to think more profoundly I wanted to understand things and life fully. Materialist science hasn't fully satisfied me with it's answers even though though true science is about finding out the truth. Science doesn't like to get philosophical and answer why, it only says how (as it assumes) things to evolve mechanistically.

What I wanted to know was the Truth meaning why do we exist and who and what I am, why. Why does everyone perceive the world from the perspective of "I"? No two people see the world exactly in the same way even if they were conjoined twins and that's because they have their own individual consciousness or soul. Have humans have been alone? What are the ancient mysteries, just nonsencical tales?

I am glad I got to realize some profound answers which go beyond belief as it's experiental knowledge, I value such beyond belief. I don't believe in the Creator, I know that the Creator is everything and is Love. More than that I have realized that truly understanding God is impossible for us humans because we try to conceptually imagine that which can't be named or imagined. Yet perhaps love, light and bliss would come close even if they're just mere simple words. I wish to understand the Creator better and get closer to that love and light.

And what's the purpose of life? To live! To experience, to evolve and grow as a soul. It's so simple, but people make it out to be so complicated. I am not a human being, I am soul having a human experience in this human male body and it's what I have for now.

Life has the value you give it. You can see it as meaningless or you can see the sacredness and inter-relatedness in everything.

Many of them yes.

But never that particular one.

still have a few questions

myself. I cannot say or figure out the most important one. so for me, any way, I must answer all of them.

But in end of finding all of those answers, what is next?

New questions arise (is my guess).

Most are to be found (one day) within a shirt or some slacks you hung up or folded when the sock, long ago, clung to it via static electricity created in your dryer. Any more questions?

Will we ever have our questions answered?

I hope not all and I hope each never fully.

For me, the purpose of life is...to live. But in saying this, an astute observer would ask. "What is it then to live?" And I would respond that I am only capable of answering that for myself as each other would likely have their own answer unique to themselves.

For me, "to live" is to have the freedom and creative mind to explore (my) imagination and wonderment. And since part of my ethos is to take full 100% personal responsibility for all my words and actions (as well as the thoughts I choose to own and how I allow my motions to color all three, thoughts words and deeds), then I do so with all others (indeed, all life) in heart and mind.

The key here is to have the freedom to do so. Something that seems more and more disappearing around this strange planet these days.

I wonder ... (yes, another question without a solid answer)

I wonder if TPTB one day becomes successful in their efforts to take away freedoms, might actually be there undoing?

As freedom of movement and public speaking/writing is taken away, more people will explore their minds and instead of working outward, the masses will work on their minds. This could lead to ....well, almost anything perhaps?


My question of having our questions answered is referring to the big picture that many people in this thread are taking bites at.

I can't recall where or when, but it was set into my mind that when we pass on we will then be told the truth of things and receive the answers to our questions.

I had a remarkable experience when a relative was just in the process of leaving their life here on Earth - their communication to me was life changing as they warned me of a coming danger to me - although they said that they were not allowed to tell me what was going to happen, only that I would be Ok.

So, my expectations of knowing things once we pass on from here is based on a real experience. Yet, of course I still wonder if it will occur. Will it be the same for all of us? I don't know - we might be able to know things beyond our circle of attention but it might not mean a lot to us - but of course we could have been affected by something on the other side of the world without knowing it.

As I see that as my big question, I am not driven to know because regardless of the information I learn, I will not know the truth of it until the time comes. And of course, I am Patient.

My personal experiences have created so many questions that if I was really driven to find the answers for them I would hardly have time to eat, sleep or even write down all the thoughts and questions that arise.

If this thread slows, I will bring in more questions to add to people's thoughts.

As deep and wonderful your post is, I got stuck thinking about being a little kid and learning to ask the question "why".

I think every child enjoys that time when they realize that asking "why" will allow them to continually ask "why" to see the length of an adults patience. Lol!
