    Discovering our true nature can feel difficult at first.
    You must be persistent and trust in the voice that is calling you inside.
    There will be arising within an urge to be free from the influence of the psychological mind.
    Though doubts may arise you will sense that a greater power is on your side.

    Recognise, acknowledge and welcome this sense or vibration.
    Say 'yes' inside your heart to its calling and you will begin to find and follow the many clues and signs it is sending to guide you along the right path.
    Whatever comes easy, we don't value. You know you have to win your Self back. You must search with all your mind and heart until you find the Real.

    Thank you for the documentary about NDEs, Chris. I used to read NDEs for years, for their spiritual insights and I appreciate the reminder of the simple yet important message about who we are and what's important in life - love.

    I watched this remarkable interview with Anita Moorjani, who had a near death experience. Bob Olsen interviewed her and described the interview a the closest thing to interviewing a spirit and I agree. Amazing spiritual insights/confirmations, including how we become ill and how we can heal.



    A PDF of notes from Anita's book, "Dying To Be Me" here.
    Never give up on your silly, silly dreams.

    You mustn't be afraid to dream a little BIGGER, darling.

    Thanks thanks thanks... I loved the Mooji meditation.As he mention the word "awareness" i felt no body and a sealike movement. Afterwords, even i had talk a lot about awareness, i´ve being pushed to look into the dictionary:
    Awareness is the ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects, thoughts, emotions, or sensory patterns.[1] In this level of consciousness, sense data can be confirmed by an observer without necessarily implying understanding. More broadly, it is the state or quality of being aware of something. In biological psychology, awareness is defined as a human's or an animal's perception and cognitive reaction to a condition or event.
    And translated into spanish is coinciousness, no excatly a word for awareness.

    I have to say sorry becouse i know there´s more than that for awareness after this meditation. Words just
    can´t make it.
    So, from awareness we should go to the heart and from the heart we should go into our minds to use them as a great tool, which it is.
    Will it that be the third option??
    Wouw my spine is going... no words my friends.
    Did i mix it up all??? I just don´t know...

    Thanks Inoccentworrior i just downloaded the pdf looking forward to read and see the interview.

    Much LOVE
    Juan

    Very happy for you Juan
    Mooji suggests not analysing.
    Trust your true Self to give you what you need.
    Be Still be Quiet is standard advice.
    Describe what is happening with your spine Juan.
    You can Pm me if you like.

    I suggest having a look at the other Mooji videos posted particularly

    Bashar speaks about Oversouls

    Quote You have upon your planet at this time, approximately 6 billion people.......
    .......but of all those 6 billions people, they are, the extension of only about 300.000 Oversouls.


    Quote There are of course Oversouls for Oversouls, and Oversouls of Oversouls of Oversouls,
    all the way back what you call All-that-Is and of course, all the way back to the One.
    Now the One is the undifferentiated Oversoul of All, the One does not know itself,
    there is no differentiation, no reflection, no self awareness in the One.

    "When he abandons further trust in his own nature and clings to no more personal hopes, he really lets go of the ego. This gives him the possibility of being open to grace."

    "The first value of prayer is that it is a confession of personal inadequacy and, by consequence, an aspiration to personal upliftment. It is a self-humbling of the ego and the beginning of a detachment from it. It is a first step in obedience to Jesus' paradoxical proclamation, "He that loseth his life shall find it."

    Hello there Greybeard, when you stop and really look for an ego it,s not there. All there is are labels of what we beleive our selfs to be. are we our body,s,our minds, our name,nationality,sex,or profetion? or are they what we are expiriencing. where are we in our body,s? are we in our body,s?

    Yes bodhi.d Tony Parson's, Open Secret was an eye opener for me, also his interview on Conscious TV
    The u tube version of this was posted on this thread quite some time ago.

    I will look and see if I can find the video

    Good to see you here.

    Give me one good reason why you are not the Self.
    To be honest, I have not heard one yet.
