There is no place for loyalty or honesty on this place on earth. 38 years still alone. No friends or family. So it’s ok to say someone of us failed, but not broken. Hopefully this failure will help on next life not on this planet but a different one.

[@albamonn1924]

@Issa Melissa In my near-death-experience, I was first visited by my daughter, who was without any viral signs except for a heartbeat, no brain activities anymore, after a fatal accident that I had caused unwillingly, and my husband had been asked to take me to the hospital highly pregnant with my dying daughter, but he refused and left the house and drove away in his car. He left me with inexplicable pain and with a little toddler. My near-death-experience started after the emergency cesarean section in the hospital when I was fully aware and awake in the bed of my intensive care room. My daughter appeared as an energy entity behind my bed and started a telepathic conversation with me that I should forgive my husband. She told me that I should forgive him, that otherwise we would break up, that maybe he didn't do it on purpose and that I am free ( from guilt) and that if I held him responsible for not helping me after the accident, also I could be held responsible for the accident as well even though it was totally unwilling... She told me that either one could say that we both are 100% guilty, or both are 50% guilty, or both are 0% guilty... I told her that I think we are both not guilty since I was sure that I wasn't guilty. But that I couldn't forgive him for anything he had done to me before, whenever he had not been on my side. When I told her that I know she is right but I can't forgive him because it's too much to forgive, two years of disappointment, she answered, but I can forgive, and with me it's worth more than two years, it's about my whole life!!! I thought at that moment that she meant she would be handicapped, but I didn't think that she would talk about losing her life again after being successfully resuscitated just a little while ago... She was a clinically dead and then resuscitated newborn baby at the time, as a young woman of about 26 years of age in old-fashioned clothes of the Roaring Twenties. When she saw that I wasn't willing to forgive even when she was sitting at the side of my bed with hands folded in prayer, she audibly whispered a sentence. "But he's still my daddy, though!!!" These whispered words went through me like a bolt of lightning!!! I felt extreme energy and heat rushing through my bones, the innermost parts of my bones. It was like a slash of fire and I will never forget that feeling of the innermost hollow of my left thigh bone that was inexplicably hot and shocking to feel. I was taken to another sphere, that I called eternity later on. I was standing upright and full of energy, but with emotions that were about ten times more intense than on earth. I felt like I had no protective skin anymore. I was so overwhelmed by those emotions that I cried the whole time. I tried to analyze those emotions and I found four different feelings that I could identify that were extremely intertwined and mingling with each other like huge waves of sea water washing over me out in the ocean. The first feeling was extreme sadness about the whole situation of the accident, the second one was love for everyone involved, and it also embraced my husband, the people who were working on me and my baby in the OR and everyone else touched by the accident, and the third emotion was remorse, such deep remorse that I had never felt in my whole life, and the fourth emotion was the most intense emotion and it was an extremely intensive longing for forgiveness!!!! It was absolutely shocking because I had never felt that longing for forgiveness before!!! It's only possible to compare it to absolute hunger and thirst. It's spiritual hunger and thirst for forgiveness as a way to regain spiritual life, and I was surprised by that feeling. I had no interest in anything anyone else had ever done to me!!! My only longing was for forgiveness for myself!!! And I felt that it was too late. I felt that I should have felt remorse and that longing for forgiveness before I Crossed over to eternity. I realized that it was a tremendous mistake not to long for forgiveness for myself before I entered eternity. I was so sad and full of remorse and repentance, but it felt like I walked inside a classroom after a test and told the teacher, I made a mistake with the number one of my tasks and I want to erase what I have written, because I know what I should have done, now!!! But the teacher says, I am sorry but that is not possible, I have to give you a grade according to what you have handed in when leaving the classroom!!! I felt extreme heat in my chest area and I saw me and my husband standing about twenty feet away from me, facing each other and holding up our arms towards each other, in a ninety degree angle, like a 45° roof from both sides, touching our finger tips in the air, and it looked like a medieval gothic archway built by two human bodies forming a unit together, and I was asking, what is this? The answer was immediately, that is the door of life!!! I was shocked because I suddenly understood that every pair of parents are building a biological chemical and genetic doorway between two spheres, the visible sphere and the other side that is mostly invisible for us!!! I suddenly realized that all parents are not only biologically chemically and genetically connected with each other when they open the passage between two spheres for their own unit, their child, but I also understood that their unit is holy and they are helping God as the constant creator of life on earth, as his unconscious disciples!!! I also understood that they are connected to each pair of their forefathers and to each other pair of parents on earth, meaning there's a spiritual connection with the past and the present, and in space and time at all levels. I felt that mankind was like a woven carpet intertwined like the emotions that I had felt, but at the same time holy and taking part actively in God's creation and at the same time united and distinct in their own identify, like each one being a single string of wool in their favourite color building a beautiful intricate living pattern of beauty and holiness in the presence of God the master of creation. At the same time I was looking down at myself and I saw two different blasts of energy streaming out of my chest area like two ropes of shining fire and made of strings like hair fine cables of firy energy. I asked again, what is this coming out of my chest?! The answer was immediately, that's love. I was absolutely shocked and in awe. These two strong energy blasts were directed at me and my husband in equal intensity.

Life is just an accumulation of your life’s moments and the choices only you know how to live with. So live well my friend, live well.

[@elphoenix1248]

@@TheProdigalProphecies But thinking stuff like that will attract it especially if you obsess over it. The best thing you can do to fight back is not give them the slightest care or any of your time and energy. I gave years and realized we are more capable then we are giving credit and everything we're taught is creating a society that feels they have no power of their own but that is entirely up to us and what we choose to focus on. Some yes are born victims to their environment or maybe in a situation that they can't get out of for one reason or another but it is usually thinking that way that holds us captive. Programming, conditioning, environment. It's a challenge to change things but nothing is impossible and that seems to be what has been forgotten. There's this whole victim mentality and most just go along with it because heaven forbid they might have to look inward and face ourselves or have to do any actual work. Most just don't want to change so they accept blaming whatever else to do as little effort as possible in life. I'll get backlash for this but I don't care. It's all perspective and at one time, we were able to have one

Matt Mielke The government would be better off giving us peace of mind, because you recharge resources to do more effective work. It also inclines you to consume more. It solves social problems as well. But the world will always be filled with minions who have their heads filled with cotton.

[@ColinBooth]

Because the education system is designed to indoctrinate kids with a left brain way of thinking. That way they are taught what to think, but not really how to think. This type of exposure towards a more linear and channeled education is a powerful tool for social control. Education is there to maintain the political and social systems in place and to educate our youth to be a servant of our economic model and system. If we were to teach this in school it would teach kids how to be more resourceful, open and wiser. This of course is not what our elite rulers want, as if we were to think to much, we might alter the status quo. I say lets go for it!

[@dwerg1]

Colin Booth It isn't that simple, and I know a lot about it from personal experience. I used to consider myself a left brain thinker, I thought I was smart (and I was). It then occurred to me that we ourselves have a responsibility to ensure we play our parts in society before we move ahead. It's not wrong to "indoctrinate" kids with knowledge. Teaching kids how to think isn't that easy either, because they have to learn that the same way they learn everything else and they can still choose not to accept it. And how do you suppose we can create a large community if everyone is taught to resist commonly agreed upon systems? How are they supposed to make a happy life for themselves if they didn't learn about how the world is? I'm not against shifting the status quo, but before we start tearing down or changing someone else's system it might be wise to learn how it is. I know I wouldn't have had the great life I have today if it wasn't for all those who "indoctrinated" me, and it further enables me to create from that knowledge something we can all benefit from. Economic models, systems, rulers etc. Who am I to assume I know any better than the ones who you call the elite rulers? What is their side of the story? Is it really that easy and nice to be at the top? In learning to lead I figured that it indeed is not, it's a heavy responsibility. You can't reach any kind of top if you don't bend some to the will of others, we all have to adjust to each other to live together. Sometimes it involves challenging the systems and sometimes it involves challenging our own beliefs. Humanity is self-regulating. When a leader steps too much over the line the masses gathers, it repeats itself in human history. Note that this is not a solution, we are the problem solvers, I'm just pointing out how I see it. We cannot all rule the world, but we all already have the right to have a say in it. But how it is today there is a ruler who makes the hard decisions for the masses, and not everyone can be pleased. Hopefully we can devise an even better system than democracy, but there will probably always be people who don't handle the big picture.

I enjoyed this talk so much. When it started I was waiting until my hands were free from taking my Christmas tree down so I can turn it off since it was a suggested video (Not one I chose), and play something else. Because I was so entrenched in the task I let the video play. And my goodness, I'm so glad I did! It made me more mindful, which made me enjoy the experience more. And when my tree was completely down, looking up at the now empty and blank space in my living room, I felt an overwhelming sadness. I initially planned to leave my tree up year-around and decorate it seasonally. However, I had an impulse to take it down...so I did. After spending an hour or so putting ornaments away, while still listening to this video and practicing mindfulness, I was present to a thought, "You love this tree, put it back up." "But it would take so long..." the next thought came about. Using mindfulness, I gently walk over to where my white tree lay in my living room floor, bare and and in three pieces, put it back together, add the lights and once again, decorate it to my hearts content. Because I was using mindfulness and only focusing on redecorating my tree, and not trying to multi-task, I got done quickly. And, I didn't feel any Irritatation or need to hurry -- only deep and profound joy, gratitude and presence. Thank you for sharing! The timing if this suggested video couldn't have been more perfect.

Evvie, I just stumbled on this talk, and I read your comment which is from two years ago and my heart went out to you. I will get that book. If I may ask, how are you doing today or these days? 2 years ago in Dec/Jan was a real shitstorm, for so many people. I’m 54, soon 55, and life is really transforming, again, but even bigger than ever - and it feels like it’s just getting started. Crazy, huh? These years, they truly can be the very best of our lives - 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and even 80’s. Heck and beyond. In my humble opinion; the key factor to a life well lived, is a mindset and baseline geared to see life as the optimistic person. It is contagious. Anyway, I really hope that you either, retired happily, (I likely never will, don’t want to) or that you found new work that you simply love, and that you’re comfortable and doing amazing.

I used to hear voices. I wasn’t a Christian at the time when they first started, but the evil things the voices said scared me and sent me running for God! I purchased a Bible and began to meditate on scripture. Psalm 8:2 promises God will silence the enemy and the avenger. John 10:27 says “My sheep hear My voice.” I wrote down the scripture and every time I heard the voices I would take the scripture out of my pocket and say “it is written ...” and quote the scripture. Soon after doing that over & over, I had memorized the scripture. It didn’t happen over night, but He did silence the voices for me! I do not take medication and do not hear them anymore! Praise God!! The Bible is full of God’s promises and I know if He’d silence them for me, He’d do it for others. I am trying to reach the desperate. The ones who are suicidal while taking medication.

We should all bow down to this man and he doesn't get the credit he deserves anymore because the next generation have basically stolen all his work and now call it their own because they can add an fMRI test or they have some sort of Swami standing next to them. He did the hard and brave work. He's not the best speaker but don't discount him because not everything is about the entertainment value. This is a man with real heart and real ability. In the early days he was in the room with the patients helping them physically get into postures and using his healing touch to encourage them.

Mindfulness is setting up the mind to be present and not get lost in thinking & judging (known in Buddhism as Calm Abiding or Shamantha) Mindfulness is an important introductory practice which provides a foundation. Once the mind is trained in this way it leads to the practice of Vipashyana, or Insight Meditation, where one comes to abide in deep stillness, where the mind simply rests and insights arise.

We can only change our life results for the better through forgiving others. It's shining the light you offer to a toxic situation, towards others and yourself at the same time!!!

[@issamelissaaa]

No disrespect intended, but how do you stop feeling sickened kinda like you felt at the time of trauma, loss, abuse etc...how can you overcome enough to make peace and truly forgive people? I tell myself I forgive them but it's like deep inside I feel like a hypocrite.

[@albamonn1924]

@@issamelissaaa In my near-death-experience, I was first visited by my daughter, who was without any viral signs except for a heartbeat, no brain activities anymore, after a fatal accident that I had caused unwillingly, and my husband had been asked to take me to the hospital highly pregnant with my dying daughter, but he refused and left the house and drove away in his car. He left me with inexplicable pain and with a little toddler. My near-death-experience started after the emergency cesarean section in the hospital when I was fully aware and awake in the bed of my intensive care room. My daughter appeared as an energy entity behind my bed and started a telepathic conversation with me that I should forgive my husband. She told me that I should forgive him, that otherwise we would break up, that maybe he didn't do it on purpose and that I am free ( from guilt) and that if I held him responsible for not helping me after the accident, also I could be held responsible for the accident as well even though it was totally unwilling... She told me that either one could say that we both are 100% guilty, or both are 50% guilty, or both are 0% guilty... I told her that I think we are both not guilty since I was sure that I wasn't guilty. But that I couldn't forgive him for anything he had done to me before, whenever he had not been on my side. When I told her that I know she is right but I can't forgive him because it's too much to forgive, two years of disappointment, she answered, but I can forgive, and with me it's worth more than two years, it's about my whole life!!! I thought at that moment that she meant she would be handicapped, but I didn't think that she would talk about losing her life again after being successfully resuscitated just a little while ago... She was a clinically dead and then resuscitated newborn baby at the time, as a young woman of about 26 years of age in old-fashioned clothes of the Roaring Twenties. When she saw that I wasn't willing to forgive even when she was sitting at the side of my bed with hands folded in prayer, she audibly whispered a sentence. "But he's still my daddy, though!!!" These whispered words went through me like a bolt of lightning!!! I felt extreme energy and heat rushing through my bones, the innermost parts of my bones. It was like a slash of fire and I will never forget that feeling of the innermost hollow of my left thigh bone that was inexplicably hot and shocking to feel. I was taken to another sphere, that I called eternity later on. I was standing upright and full of energy, but with emotions that were about ten times more intense than on earth. I felt like I had no protective skin anymore. I was so overwhelmed by those emotions that I cried the whole time. I tried to analyze those emotions and I found four different feelings that I could identify that were extremely intertwined and mingling with each other like huge waves of sea water washing over me out in the ocean. The first feeling was extreme sadness about the whole situation of the accident, the second one was love for everyone involved, and it also embraced my husband, the people who were working on me and my baby in the OR and everyone else touched by the accident, and the third emotion was remorse, such deep remorse that I had never felt in my whole life, and the fourth emotion was the most intense emotion and it was an extremely intensive longing for forgiveness!!!! It was absolutely shocking because I had never felt that longing for forgiveness before!!! It's only possible to compare it to absolute hunger and thirst. It's spiritual hunger and thirst for forgiveness as a way to regain spiritual life, and I was surprised by that feeling. I had no interest in anything anyone else had ever done to me!!! My only longing was for forgiveness for myself!!! And I felt that it was too late. I felt that I should have felt remorse and that longing for forgiveness before I Crossed over to eternity. I realized that it was a tremendous mistake not to long for forgiveness for myself before I entered eternity. I was so sad and full of remorse and repentance, but it felt like I walked inside a classroom after a test and told the teacher, I made a mistake with the number one of my tasks and I want to erase what I have written, because I know what I should have done, now!!! But the teacher says, I am sorry but that is not possible, I have to give you a grade according to what you have handed in when leaving the classroom!!! I felt extreme heat in my chest area and I saw me and my husband standing about twenty feet away from me, facing each other and holding up our arms towards each other, in a ninety degree angle, like a 45° roof from both sides, touching our finger tips in the air, and it looked like a medieval gothic archway built by two human bodies forming a unit together, and I was asking, what is this? The answer was immediately, that is the door of life!!! I was shocked because I suddenly understood that every pair of parents are building a biological chemical and genetic doorway between two spheres, the visible sphere and the other side that is mostly invisible for us!!! I suddenly realized that all parents are not only biologically chemically and genetically connected with each other when they open the passage between two spheres for their own unit, their child, but I also understood that their unit is holy and they are helping God as the constant creator of life on earth, as his unconscious disciples!!! I also understood that they are connected to each pair of their forefathers and to each other pair of parents on earth, meaning there's a spiritual connection with the past and the present, and in space and time at all levels. I felt that mankind was like a woven carpet intertwined like the emotions that I had felt, but at the same time holy and taking part actively in God's creation and at the same time united and distinct in their own identify, like each one being a single string of wool in their favourite color building a beautiful intricate living pattern of beauty and holiness in the presence of God the master of creation. At the same time I was looking down at myself and I saw two different blasts of energy streaming out of my chest area like two ropes of shining fire and made of strings like hair fine cables of firy energy. I asked again, what is this coming out of my chest?! The answer was immediately, that's love. I was absolutely shocked and in awe. These two strong energy blasts were directed at me and my husband in equal intensity.

[@albamonn1924]

@@issamelissaaa In the end I realized in my near-death-experience that there's no chance for me to get saved from spiritual life danger without forgiveness for everyone. When I realized that I can save myself but it is only possible by the circle of forgiving others, I immediately decided to forgive him!!! And I meant it!!! Forgiving seemed so much easier than to undergo that anguish pain and remorse for not being able to reach forgiveness for myself!!! It's agony and it's spiritual life danger, it's a fear of spiritual death that I can't put in words. It's the biggest fear that I have ever felt. It's sickening to even think about it!!! I was immediately aware that when I had been ready to forgive him, I was forgiven, myself, at the same time!!!! There's a line in the bible that says if you can't forgive your brother on earth before you are facing God when you enter his spiritual kingdom,, God can't forgive you in heaven!!! Immediately after that I was taken back to the emergency room. I had realized that my near-death-experience was an act of grace. That my baby girl had been willing to come back from death to help me find forgiveness and peace of mind. I realized that I am not worthy of that chance for a new beginning. That God is so much higher than we are, it's unbelievable that he cares about us. And we all make mistakes. He still believes in us. He needs us. He has given us the power of free will, of freedom, and he can't interfere with free will. We must call for him, for his forgiveness, and we must forgive everyone because not forgiving someone is like carrying a heavy baggage full of big stones with you !!! And this keeps you from being accepted in the kingdom. Your baggage is glued to your hands and to your heart. As long as there's no forgiveness for everyone who hurt you, there's no forgiveness for your own sins. These people left their sins as marks on your spiritual garment. If you are invited to enter the kingdom, there's people at the gate saying, sorry, not the right outfit for the occasion!!! It's like stains on the most beautiful wedding dress. First you must wash out those stains. And this washing machine is forgiveness. Your spiritual garment enters dirty and stained and then you receive a wonderful clean dress after forgiveness had been activated......... There's no freedom without forgiveness. Because we are held prisoners of the past, prisoners of these people, prisoners of our own negative emotions towards them. Forgiving is a VIP TICKET to the biggest event you will ever be able to attend. It's important to be ready. You never know when the time and place is that you are called to the other side and to testify for the time you were given on earth to take part in the creation of God.

@@Trainpaintoday Very interesting ... However, life goes beyond all that. A lot of useless waffling if we cannot apply it to life in a general way ... The first rule is: "Survival". We are born, we exist, we respond to experiences whether what is said to be ideal or not. Our bodies are highly functioning machines, loaded with a brain, to think and react to occurrences in a rational way, we have a heart to give us a rational and emotive way to develop from just a machine to a human being which transforms us into more than just a lump of clay to a designated living being ... attending or reacting to necessities first and everything else will follow, In due course. Jealousy, fear, regret are not always unnecessary or bad emotional responses. Jealousy and fear are often warning sign that all is not as it should be and should be heeded not ignored, often identified as a gut feeling. Finally, there is a higher power, some are born with it, others need to be taught to accept, values of freedom, and what is right or wrong to transform society into a place worth belonging to. Having said all of that, I guess once we follow these needs that may pop up from within, mindfulness to me, seems to suggest that when we slow down to think what thought process we followed, it should be done without interpretation and judgement. This last step is not always easy because most people instinctively ask themselves,"Am I imagining all of this or is it real, and if it is real, where does it come from?" "Is my reaction, good or bad?".

This man reminds me of two very insightful people, Dr.Jordan Peterson as well as Dr. Joe Dispenza. Very well spoken with a high level of understanding of various aspects of a well oriented life. Just as a wise old man would do to the younger generation, these gentlemen have done me a tremendous favor by doing their thing. Thank you KZbin algorithm for recommending me this today. Lol

He is right about that. Thinking is a storming of the brain and the soundtrack of the brain sound is similar to be like a stream of water on the roof.Finding the music of the brain that settles the mind to a rhythm that is calming and balanced with your body acknowledges that.

Omg, I just listened Kryon talk about the god inside is god. And in this lecture he says "What can be more interesting than me?". They're both pointing in the same direction. We have a natural interest in ourselves in order to reach god. Know thyself 💜

Took this guy so long to get to the point. I started day dreaming of the past the future and what’s for lunch

[@lindanabasa2478]

Jon Kabat-Zinn. Always inspiring. "The Healing Power of Mindfulness". A long video, but worth it, especially his encouraging comments to questions at the end. Many gems in this talk.

Technology is selfish, life in itself is a game its a game of monopoly a game of survival a game of options so a game of good and evil pick your destination choose which road best fits you, but then it comes down to "why" as in why buy a fake gun instead of a real one, why think about doing something instead of just doing it, why ask questions instead of just finding out for yourself, why run people over in a game and shoot and kill them and rent hookers instead of doing it in real life you obviously in your mind enjoy it or you simply wouldn't act upon it game or not, the desire to be free to live a life of freedom with absolutely zero consequences is what every human in the entire world wants so WHY are we here in this simulated earth taking on the flesh body? Is it possibly boring outside of this simulation? Do we slaughter life living animals with feelings and a conscious mind to devour and eat there flesh because it fulfills our evil side? Why do we base this place on time? Maybe time doesn't exist outside of earth maybe time here is because it's the only time we get.
