Connection with the Divine and other personal lessons from the Universe

[Andrew]

Over the last month I've been through the wringer as far as the school of hard knocks is concerned and it's been rather overwhelming and at times a little scary but never beyond anything I couldn't handle. Nights over the last month have been what seems like one constant fight with the polarity forces of the universe from all directions and in all shapes and forms. It really threw me for a loop and for a while pretty much knocked me off much of the personal explorations and healings I'd been doing as I've been trying to cope with balancing school (started massage therapy school almost 2 months ago) and gaining lessons from the universe at a much faster pace and in a harsher environment than I'd previously been experiencing. It just goes to show me that the universe uses all sides as a teacher of experience. All of the attacks I have been dealing with over the last month or so have been extraphysical in nature with some influences that have dipped into manifesting in the physical body. As far as I can tell these attacks come at me by taking advantage of the weaknesses I have inside myself, the stuff I have stored in my shadow and unconscious mind and all those parts of myself that I'd shunned, rejected and kicked under the rug and refused to acknowledge or deal with up to this point in my life. God is so beautiful that he has chosen this avenue to make me start working on them.

As part of my experiences I have learned some extremely important lessons of which I'd like to share:
Learn what's your's and what's not
Learn to practice discernment
Don't believe everything you hear, see or think
Acknowledge that you have a strong connection with the divine
Realize what your core is
Acknowledge the truth and beauty of each other
See how your actions, thoughts and deeds affect each other
Realize that there is strong technology out there that can deeply and brutally shut you down
Learn the power of another
See what is okay to involve yourself in and see what is not

There are more lessons than this to take but I think this is a pretty comprehensive list overall. Of this list, two which I have found to be especially important are see what's okay to involve myself in and see what is not and the connection to the divine. This all started because I let curiosity get the best of me without thinking of the consequences of my actions and had a friend ask sensitive questions of the Akashic Records to which I really had no business exploring. The reason I had no business exploring the questions is because I wasn't going to do anything with the information I was receiving, I was just seeking confirmation on one of the many conspiracy theories out there I had found some truth and evidence of in my travels. When you send out thoughts or requests for information to the universe, those thoughts and the vibration of them send out a broadcast message unless something is done to prevent it (like shielding your thoughts) to which other forces in the universe might be paying attention and if they pick them up, they begin investigating. Unfortunately the thing they begin investigating and messing with is the nosy individuals who overstepped their boundaries. Guilty as charged. This drove home a very important tidbit of truth for me, don't ask questions you don't want answers too for with this information comes responsibility whether you realize it or not. The Lily has given me the ability to find out whatever I wish to know from the cosmos but it did not give me the discernment to know what I should be exploring for my own personal growth and what I should be steering clear of. What you focus on expands and shutting down something that impacts you deeply is a hard thing to shut down once you have opened it. It's the proverbial curiosity killed the cat statement.

The other thing I learned which I feel trumps all others is that the Lily really did put me in a direct relationship with the divine. It just took me 9 months to realize it fully. I have had a few instances in which I came face to face with my maker and they came about in different ways. My first one occurred during my Lily Activation in which I was told that anything I asked for would be bestowed upon me to which I asked three things of the divine, all of which came true for me, one of which continues to unfold in my life. Second time was during a Lily meditation I joined in from home in which I went outside myself and eventually arrived at a meeting with him whereby he told me some things about myself and my place in the universe; what's mine for the taking should I own up to it and claim what it rightfully mine and yours for that matter, owning ones own divinity in the physical. A third time during I think what was a personal meditation I did I went inside myself and ended up in the presence of the divine. Same thing ensued, had a one on one conversation and found out some things about myself and got some good confirmations about things I had suspected. During the last month I have realized that the same method I have been using to communicate with my higher self, spirit guides and Ramon is not just applicable to my higher self, guides and Ramon. It applies to all aspects of myself, applies to all aspects of other people including their body (I ask someone what they need work on and I get an auditory response from their body telling me), but most importantly, it allows me to talk to God whenever I want to. In times of need, in times of confusion, in times of normality, it doesn't matter, he is always willing to communicate with me given I don't have interference coming in to me. I don't need to go anywhere! God is residing inside every cell of my body, every inch of my consciousness, every vibration of my everything, the divine is there waiting for me to initiate that intimate relationship. This is not a God of fear but one of love, compassion and understanding. One that is so in love with creation that the divine created me to help create beauty in the omniverse.

This is all done through mental telepathy and I built up to it. I started with doing the mental pendulum technique found in the deified abilities group. From there I moved on to getting yes or no questions from my higher self. From there I started working with the Akashic records and communicating with my guides. One notch up from that I started communicating with Ramon, the original Lily, one up from there I started having open ended dialogues with my higher self, followed by the healers during Core Light Healings. From there I started talking to the various parts of my body, inner child, shadow, subconscious, divine masculine and divine feminine within me, and also those parts in others. Finally after all of this in the midst of my trial and tribulations, with the help of another, I realized the divine was there waiting for me to finally start communicating. If I am crazy, than crazy is the one of the most amazing states of self awareness I could ever hope to achieve and experience. Sign me up again please and leave the medication at the door! A big huge thank you to everyone for being a part of my journey of self discovery. I love you all unconditionally and you are more beautiful than you can possibly imagine. With love, In light.

Namasté.
