    I am a Christian, I was born in a family without Christian relative. When I was 17 years old, I had bipolar disorder, and I didn't grow up in a good environment. My dad are mental disabled, and the story of his illness can be traced back to a ghost encounter when he was a young man. If you are intereted about ghost attacked, I will talk more about my father's mental illness caused by the supernatural event. My twin sister and I witnessed my dad often losing control of his emotions and sometimes beating my mom and me In such a childhood, my personality became very sensitive and my ability to cope with stress was very poor. When I was in high school, I committed suicide due to bipolar disorder, and once I wrote an email to a classmate in Vancouver about my troubles and despair. At that time, my classmate prayed for me and changed the rest of my life. I don't really remember the exact content of the previous email, because it was more than ten years ago. I remember he said to me, "I'm a Christian, I'll pray for you." After my deskmate prayed for me, I suddenly felt that I was willing to go out and find a local church. At that time, I met an old woman who gave me a Bible, and I followed her to worship all the time, learning to read the Bible and sing hymns. The lady is the angel that God sent to me, and She became my soulmate.
    After accepting Jesus as my Savior, my illness gradually improved, and I was baptized two years later. Then I left the big church and went to family fellowship, which was a partial Calvinist Reformed family church. Why I leave big church,you know sometimes I seek for God, the more I want to learn, he will lead you to a real way.
    I have been a Christian for 15 years, and I have experienced illness in my life, as well as the death of a family member in a car accident. If I want to say that faith has changed me, I have the courage to live no matter how difficult the circumstances are. I just want to share some verses that inspire me.
    'And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;And patience, experience; and experience, hope:And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.(Romans 5:3-6 KJV)'
    Also as a Christian, I need to pray more to help the weakness,like people who are suffering in the war . 'I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.(Acts 20:35 KJV)'
    'These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.(John 16:33 KJV)'


    Hello Anyone! Thank you for sharing your personal story, Is. I read your post just when I needed it. I have also had bipolar disorder since I was 15. At first I went from depression to euphoria. At 18, after deep personal internal work, I managed to start only having episodes of euphoria. Because of this, I have been taking psychiatric medication since that time. With the support of my psychologist and psychiatrist, I do not need to be constantly medicated. I only take medication when I begin to perceive that I am going to have an episode of euphoria, which is 2 or 3 times a year. Each of these episodes usually lasts 2 weeks. In any case, obviously, I would prefer to have a “healthy” mind and not have to be on medication. As you well know, bipolarity is a mental illness that almost always accompanies those who suffer from it throughout their lives. In any case, I have had to bear this personal cross for 22 years now, so I accept my fate. It probably has to do with karma from past lives. I do value the fact that during my episodes of euphoria, I am much more creative and active. That is very good for me because I write, draw, create audiovisual content and I am a graphic designer. So those are periods of great productivity. I just consider that nothing happens by chance and that I have to live with this mental condition is part of God's plan. I continue to pray to the Creator to heal me and perhaps that will happen one day, I do not lose hope. There is a phrase in the Bible that I like very much and it is very beautiful: “Dear young people, if you want to serve God, prepare to face difficulties. Arm yourselves with great courage, and do not be afraid of misfortunes. Never turn away from God, and he will make you prosper. Whatever happens, endure suffering with patience. Gold is purified by fire, and we, by suffering.” Ecclesiasticus 2:1-5. Unfortunately, this is the way the world we live in is. Perhaps there will come a time when we will be able to stop having to incarnate on this planet full of so much pain and hardship. In the meantime, we must have faith, endure and do good.
    In addition to what I told you about sharing the mental/emotional problem that you have, in March 2023, happened the most painful and sad thing I have ever experienced in my life. My 28-year-old sister committed suicide. She was one of the people I loved most in this life. For years we tried to help her as a family, because thank God there was always a lot of love between us. My parents and my brother always tried to tell her that she could get ahead. She went to therapy since she was 18 and tried to meditate and do other ways to feel well. But she had endogenous depression and suicidal thoughts for years. She was my friend as well as my sister, we could talk about everything, we shared the same kind of humor, the love for cats, movies and reading and many other things. In this past year and a half, I have cried more than in my entire life. I receive a lot of support from my family, relatives and friends, but at times it is still very difficult. In any case, I never stopped having faith in God and that is largely what sustains me. I know that everything happens for a reason, even though I cannot see it clearly now amidst so much pain.
    I believe that all humans have to go through a Christ-like path and that involves suffering in order to advance on the spiritual path. Jesus himself was killed at the age of 33 and that is extremely significant and symbolic. His mother, father, brothers and disciples must have been devastated. Even though he resurrected later, he soon ascended to Heaven and became a memory in the hearts of those who loved him. His story is the most beautiful and sad that exists. All human beings are brothers in love and suffering. Thank you once again for sharing what was happening to you, as you may have seen, your story touched me. I send you a big hug and I hope you are well.

    I just want you to know that I hear your story,Irminsül and can relate to it in many, many ways. I am so very sorry about the death of your sister. I understand the psychic pain that can bring one to this level, that of self destruction. I have tried it myself several times and have never succeeded. My daughter did succeed.

    I would be honored to talk to you on a personal level if you are so inclined. You can send me a PM if you would like to talk.

    I find it very typical that no one acknowledged your post other than some thank you's. I find that it is not because they don't care, it is that it is very tough to say anything when these things happen. The "I'm so sorry" seems so trite so we ignore it.

    You can talk to me, I have shared very similar experiences and although I don't think I have ever written about these things publicly, I felt drawn to do so. Your sister has a most beautiful smile. I am so happy you were able to capture that moment. My daughter had a beautiful smile too.

    With love and understanding,
    Pam

    Looking further into the mysteries of the Pineal Gland and Sacred Secretion....'Christ Within'

    Interestingly the Eye of Horus in Ancient Egypt is compared with central areas of the human brain....

    Maybe tales and artwork of Horus - Osiris - Isis - etc are all actually descriptions of biological + Higher Mind processes...? (linking us humans while we are operating in this reality, to 'Christ' and 'God' and the whole of this particular creation....)







    source for the above images


    ***************************************

    by the way..... for anyone who might be (vaguely ) interested - after the rough time I had when the Moon was in my sun sign on 31st August and 1st September - post 49 about it here...the next one (sept 27/28) was ok - quite good physically and emotionally... (thank goodness!)

    This popped up on my recommended videos on Youtube and I thought it would be suitable for this thread - that's been lying dormant for a while...

    by the way...in the title it says 'not meant for Christians' but I think it would be more exact to say...'not meant JUST for Christians...' (?)

    Jesus HID Secret Codes in His Parables (Not Meant for Christians) (21:33)




    Quote In this transmission, we decode the 7 parables that serve as a roadmap to self-realization. Forget the Sunday School version. This is a journey into the heart of the hidden gospel, revealing Yeshua not as a religious icon, but as a master of divine initiation who taught that the Kingdom of Heaven is within. (bolding mine)

    These codes were meant for now. They were meant for you. If you feel like a mystic in exile, searching for the temple within, you are not here by accident. You are here to remember.

    CHAPTERS:
    00:00 The Parables are Encrypted Messages
    01:43 Parable 1. The Sower: A Map of Your Own Consciousness
    03:44 Parable 2 The Lost Coin: Reclaiming the Divinity You Hid Within Yourself
    05:45 Parable 3. The Hidden Treasure: Embracing Your Human Life to Find God
    09:08 Parable 4. The Pearl of Great Price: When the Seeker Becomes the Sought
    11:48 Parable 5. The Wheat & Tares: Integrating Your Shadow for True Wholeness
    14:17 Parable 6. The Lamp Under a Bushel: The Sacred Duty of Your Authenticity
    16:48 Parable 7. The Two Builders: Anchoring in Inner Knowing for the Great Awakening

    I lifted this quote out because it reflects the essence of this thread topic, IMO....

    6:57
    "........Your human experience isn't a distraction from your spiritual life. It is your spiritual life. Your relationships, your work, your struggles, your joys, they're all part of the field where your divine nature is hidden. waiting to be discovered.

    What if right now, in this very moment, you're standing on the field where your true self is buried? What if every experience you've had, even the painful ones, has been preparing you to recognize the treasure when you find it? Feel into your life as it is right now, not how you wish it were, but exactly as it is. Can you sense it? The treasure waiting just beneath the surface of your ordinary existence......."

    I want to share my resolution of now anyway, for how I may see Christ as "the way, the truth and the light" and completely release concern in every way for "religion".

    More and more I have been focusing on my sense that I have a sacred space, my spirit rope which is like the center spindle of a records stack on phonograph players. All the "records" are ALL the concepts possible and all actions derived from concepts and EVERYTHING that exists in this "matrix". The humor of ALL is that it is just a "spin"< ALL of This constructed world as it spins and we follow grooves of concern.

    WE DO spin SOMETHING but if you stay cenetered in the central sacred spirit space YOU CONSTRUCT, you can just be with Spirit and your SELF and observe EVEN your own spins with neutrality. The neutrality is so peaceful. GOD is here with me and I have no clue of GOD exceot by the stepped down Mother/Father energy, my SELF AWARE of God, and Christ whom I know now to be the holy reconciliation in form of the paradox of being ONE with God and yet able to create HERE in a form that will appear as my life. Christ is showing me that this is a quality, a force which MAY permeate my field if I follow the call. I am feeling so confidant that Christ will help me walk through the "world" just because I ask. Through Christ we can release experiences here (forgiveness) to clear the way for our DESTINY as oneself. We may know Christ and not Creator as we are here in the way we are (not sure what its all about really). GOD is every every possibility, Christ is the force of BEING that WILL MAKE OUR PATH IN PARTICULAR both ONE with the Father and unique. It is not any man who was Christ but Christ in any man or woman RIGHT NOW if we choose.
