56 years old and learned I am Autistic about 3 years ago. What a ride its been - 1000's of jobs -friends, family and lovers all gone with no answers. I'm lucky my wife (now wife) has stood with me. I know I am super intelligent/intuitive and have had dreams and visions but I have lived my life as a broken person. I have tried to share what I hear - see and know but i am mostly rejected. I discovered a great secret - one of many but this 0ne stands out above the others and I have been trying to share it. I'm a huge Carl Jung fan and feel I know him personally. Thank you for your video.

What secret? Please share 😊

I have autism. I have experienced intense spirituality in my life, things noone would believe. But I have asked many others with autism and they have no clue what Im talking about. What I see others with all spectrums of autism share with me is the desire to dive into a project or quest mentally deeper than everyone else.

Even with autism I wouldnt have believe you when i was 16 but at 19 i took mushrooms almost monthly and literally saw a vision of the future then months later met the person from my vision and my whole world view changed....... Its a blessing and a curse to see things differently especially high fucntioning because you can look and act normal enough for people to second guess you, only when theh see you breakdown under pressures that werent yours to carry do they back off...

[@hawk_202]

@@evaschroeder8663 that sounds like a very fear based belief, which is exactly what we want to move away from i have to ask what makes you think this is demonic?

I cannot believe this info , I experienced teaching from heaven after years of being so sick. Now I know I have autism and there is this connection. Now know it was a severe burnout all these years. I had no idea and have been so misdiagnosed and no body believes me still. It’s horrific everything that happened.This is very supporting and I am healing on my own. 😅😊

[@sunflower3694]

Nothing happens by accident. I was led to this video today when I was researching autism. A girl in an art class I’m taking has it. I will definitely be reading your book for insight. Over 9 (I follow Numerology heavily and my LifePath is a 36/9) years ago my mom died of breast cancer which led to my spiritual awakening. I find it interesting that you speak about anxiety and depression. I was challenged with severe anxiety/panic attacks for 20 years. I have since come to see it as a gift of being a Highly Sensitive Person/Empath. I believe autism may be the same. The more I gravitated to metaphysical & spirituality the more my anxiety lessened. According to Louise Hay in “Heal Your Body” anxiety is not trusting the process and flow of life. I have found this to be true. When I started following only my intuition the signs and synchronicities began falling into place like stepping stones. We each have so many unique gifts to share with the world, we just need to get out of our own way🙏🏼💝🌟🌻

[@LukeLFC84]

I was led to comment on this. It sounds like you have it too , that's just my opinion though. Yes we are highly sensitive people. Caring , loyal , funny, authentic & artistic. And in alot of cases very spiritual. I'm having a spiritual awakening of epic proportions right now. Autistic people like me were taught from a young age it wasn't ok to just be ourselves..We had to blend in , mask in order to be accepted by society ..A society that doesn't accept us ..When you wear the mask too long you'll become the mask.. I lost my true self ..no more self conciousness , self awareness .. Leading to anxiety & depression and feeling lost .. I'm 36 and was misdiagnosed all my life. Only found out 2 months ago. It's Asperger( Autism ) & ADHD. Now it's like i found god again

[@sunflower3694]

Luke Slangen All the best to you on your path🙏🏼

[@cupcinka]

As an awakened empath I am feeling autistic people deeply and more strongly than other people, I feel their emotions phisical pain and daily struggles. Most of them really have nearly Lost their self awareness and don’t understand what I am trying to explain and what I see and feel in them... it saddens me but I still feel them on a daily basis and don’t know what else I can do to make them better... They really feel more spiritual to me and more easy connected to God/Universe, but for now they are just asleep and don’t see it...

I have slight autism, my educated guess, about 95-98% normal and 5-2% on the spectrum. I've had quite a spiritual journey. When I studied literature, it taught me to read between the lines. I've noticed the same thing in my life. I think God whispers to us and we just have to tune in and pay attention. Your book discussion is so interesting, I'll have to check this book out.

[@karysgriffiths-derose6241]

I am going through process of hopefully getting a diagnosis for autism. Always found social interactions very energy draining and hard to quckly think of things to say. I pick up on ALL the subtleties, unconscious communication between people and have always found it overwhelming, being hypersensitive. I thought I was mad, didn't understand it. I don't know what to do with it.

Can you tell us more of what happened? I grew up in religious family but it didn’t make any sense to me at all and I couldn’t identify myself as Christian. then many years after I found out about spirituality, started meditating and it helped me a lot to get out of my head etc.

Oh my goodness im so happy i ran into this ! I'm personally dealing with these issues with myself.. I have a nonverbal autistic 24 year old son.he is so unique and intelligent..hes such a mystery. Every topic you are highlighting is hitting it dead on with me..i wish i could have your book.you are helping me and making me see things differently. You are absolutely inspiring me about your son Rio and his communication...the meditation etc. How did you meditate with him? My son sounds like your Rio.. My son feels trapped..since hes nonverbal..its such a struggle for us. I have some things in common with you as well. This is very interesting.Great conversation! I need this book! Thanks so much..God bless💙you and Rio💙

[@kaitlinmontgomery2750]

I believe the reason we struggle to verbalize is because our minds are so extraordinary that speaking just is too hard. My brain works SO fast and I truly am intrigued by how my mind operates. It's so beautiful but simultaneously so frustrating because I have this really gorgeous inner world yet I'm thinking so many thoughts and ideas... having so many epiphanies all of the time that extracting those thoughts from my mind and into speech is like pouring alphabet soup into a bowl. It's chaos. And it's beautiful chaos. Your son has an infinite playground of profound ideas swirling around in his head; I promise you. His mind is brilliant; the autistic experience is both an incredible curse and blessing all at once. There is the shadow of Autism and the light of Autism and both make for an interesting experience on this earth. Indeed; we were meant to get people out of their boxes of linear thought.... we think in bursts and explosions of thought... which is why a meltdown will trigger such severe movements like stimming. We have so so so much love and passion because of our Autism; not despite. I'm so happy you have a son that was born with this gift; and simultaneously feel for both yoy and him as it is a pain in the ass at best and can feel tragic at worst. Your son is beautiful. Life is beautiful. Your feelings are valid and I hope things get easier ✨💕
