And My Life Was Never the Same

While meditation is a powerful practice for transforming our lives off the meditation cushion, sometimes there can be strange and bizarre experiences on the cushion. Although we don't meditate for the purpose of having these mystical and otherworldly experiences, they can be important to understand and know about in case you ever find yourself navigating such an experience.
In today's KZbin video, I discuss my own such strange meditation experience, what it means, what we can learn from it, and how we can incorporate the teachings into our daily lives.

When I was in my 30s as I was hanging the clothes on the washing line I suddenly became everything , the clothes on the line , the pegs that held them everywhere I looked , God is an experience not something to be preached ,all is one .

Instead of RE or history at schools we need spirituality classes twice or more a week from ages 11 to 16, instead of always focusing on grades. Imagine how much this would improve young mindsets to be at peace. Thanks for always taming my ego Todd, we need more teachers like you.

💜I also found this in my early 30’s I was walking my dog through a local wood and suddenly felt my connection to everything. I felt Bliss. This helped awaken my spiritual journey…..30 years ago.

[@tommybinson]

I remember similar moments of heart-bursting joy as a child. They then became rarer and less intense. I regret not knowing what they were. We are blessed today with teachers like Todd.❤

[@Sage555n]

Thank you! I am glad the divine universe recently brought you and your spiritual wisdom teachings into my awareness. There are no accidents and miracles are everywhere. I love the way you teach. May you be blessed for blessing us.

[@dianemorgan600]

You're so right Todd, society isn't taught peace, or meditation at a very young age. What a beautiful world we would live in if that was so. It is shifting now, people are waking up to who they truly are and "Love" is at the fore front. Knowledge is power and remembering is so much more powerful. Come from a place of love and joy and bliss will follow. I love your story and resonate with everything you are saying and teaching, you are a beautiful kind soul. ❤You are blessed to live in such an extraordinary stunning place. Peace

Brother, I have had the same experience thanks to a terrible health crisis in a nightmarish environment. My soul was ripped from my body and I realised that everything is energy and Consciousness has the power to mold this energy according to the kind of experience you need to have. Consciousness is all but the experience we have as an individual self is an illusion. The self is a game to discover who you truly are.

[@FancyRavenmoon]

You are a blessing to this world spreading love and beauty of all sorts!! I opened my thoughts of peace for the world today! Because we are peace and that’s what we should be doing!! Thank you, Thank you! Now I go and feed the world! So It Is!!! I love you!💕

[@kcshanna6888]

I’m filled with gratitude for this message today. I was actually sitting in bed yesterday touching the comforter and I thought about the consciousness in it (although I didn’t think of it that way until you said this in your video). I felt the cotton, and the people who farmed it, and the machines that gathered it, and the people who spun it, and weaved it, and sewed it. The machines used, and the people who built them. The people who packaged it, shipped it, and so on. And the families of those people. I felt it all as my hand touched it. It came to life. This is a beautiful message about the connectivity of the universe. Thank you so much for sharing it.

[@Imawiggle]

That is it ! I can’t find a appropriate word it?…I wonder how many people experience this? Lol probably a lot ! who doesn’t like comforters Imagination is boundless said Einstein!..❤🙏🏼✌️

[@helendeonarine7970]

As I was meditating, I felt something warm being poured down my body (head to toe) open my eyes to see 'golden liquid' on me. Recently, I dreamt I was flying and when I looked up 'golden sprinkles' were on me!

[@abderrahimkamili5214]

yes the Eternal spirit is in all things , living or none living , yeah the universe is conscious and no God can create it , and it is God ... sometimes I talk to my truck, and say to it , thank you for being a good truck ...

[@khinaye1868]

This is the only topic...I love to listen to and talk about always...which is love, consciousness, humanity. ❤

[@Joylynnfrancis]

I had something similar happen to me when I first started meditating. It’s never happened since. That was about 3 years ago. I couldn’t quit smiling and the only person I could tell was my sister. And it’s exactly what I said. I felt like I had died and gone to somewhere beautiful, that’s the only way I could explain it.

[@rickyf3448]

Nothing "has" consciousness. Everything IS consciousness.

I dont understand why is he so underrated?

[@lornalong6468]

You are a brave brave man for attempting to articulate this for us. And in such a beautiful, comprehensible way. Thank you. I do honestly believe that the base structure & framework of all existence is the pure potential of consciousness. The smallest 'quantum particles' (for want of more accurate terminology) respond and restructure themselves according to the 'quality' and 'nature' of thought/consciousness they are exposed to. Science recognises this. I honestly believe Consciousness is something that exists (again for a want of better terminology) is a 'void'. Formless. Yet aware, self aware, reactive & creative. It is before & beyond existence. I believe Consciousness 'uses' frequency to structure reality (Nikolai Tesla had such thoughts, which he in part structured from his exposure to ancient Hindu texts & Egyptian writings). I therefore think Consciousness 'contemplates' all possible potential existence, creates it & inhabits it in order to experience what it is, improve it & magnify it. Love (or the 'desire' to create something wonderful, purposeful, beautiful & set it in motion to be perpetual & regenerative) is the nature of Consciousness. But to be clear, I don't believe that kind of 'desire' is purely 'loving' in the way we interpret love. I believe it to be an overarching 'purposefulness' & 'intention' to create, experience, learn, adjust & correct. So in that sense 'desire' incorporates the equal potential to learn from evil, hate, anger, control, destruction, sadness, loss, ill-health, catastrophe, etc. as we equally learn from love, joy, peace, freedom, kindness, construction, vitality, success. So in that sense, the 'love' of Consciousness is the acceptance that all things in experiencing them (either just witnessing it, being on the receiving end of it or being it ourselves) can teach us something and can 'purpose for good', learning, positive change, progress. It contributes to the potential for improved magnification. In this sense Consciousness 'desires' to know its total potential and to hold everything in balance whilst reaching a state of 'loving' (approving of it) that which it is & is becoming. Otherwise, how do we explain an all powerful Consciousness of pure love that allows evil & chaos & illness & destruction? Because in an eternal, perpetual, timeless existence the dark in the light & the light in the darkness teaches us something. Yin & Yang. Both must exist to gain the knowledge to improve, upgrade & love (appreciate) all that is. It's why gratitude is such a powerful, sacred thing. It is Creative Consciousness approving of its creation. Recognition, love in action. This is a personal view. It has given me great peace & strength in times of tragedy. It has helped me believe in & experience genuine miracles. It has helped me see value & wonder in the darkest of times. My purpose of writing this is to help those that read it feel a little less duped by the desire to see & be love when the opposites exist in reality all over the place. To give hope & strength to those experiencing tough times. Round the corner is knowledge & gratitude. They are MEANT to ALL exist. ALL potential realities have a purpose. And it is ALL good, eventually. Remember, Consciousness is timeless & simultaneous. We only experience a timeline, but in reality, time passing is meaningless. A state of being is EVERYTHING. Good luck & enjoy your own personal journey.

One who has gives out. One who don't have can only get. Truth!

[@Frydekilde]

Your theories, ain’t just theories, they are facts, and you are correct in your assumptions. Everything is aware of itself, and everything is part of the source. Nothing is truly nothing, because if something were nothing, then nothing wouldn’t exist. I love how you had that experience, I love your story and I am thankful because you shared this. I love the fact, that you found this wisdom inside your own experience, channeled by yourself, well done. But materialism is part of spirituality, because spiritualism is all about having the best life possible, which is different to everyone. Nothing is wrong about materialism, it comes from desire, and is delivered to humanity by source, and our higher vibrational selves. Nothing is wrong about driving a super car or living in a penthouse or eating at the finest restaurants, whatever makes people happy is all right. And because I love you, as the family you are to me, as a human being, and part of source, and because I like you. I want to bring you the gift of knowledge. You can either ignore it, or you can follow the flow of life, and go with my suggestion below. And here it is. Go search for Abraham Hicks, here on KZbin. That’s my gift for you. - Abraham Hicks. Peace.

[@jessicamosley4431]

It’s all just another aspect of yourself (potentially) which we must have. We have to have the polarity in order to send love to everything. We are all one and we are all creators. We have the ability to shift our world to love, joy and peace where we all live in these states of being. We first do this by expanding our consciousness to bring more awareness that we don’t have to live separate in this 3D reality. We are MORE than that. Blessings to you for this beautiful message and life changing experience! ❤️🙏🏻🙌🏻
