Your personal 'awakening' event ?

[geewhizz]

Hi guys

We have all heards Icke's and many others Peru type experiences, but what happened to you??

Heres mine briefly..

All my life ive had weird and wonderful experiences with paranormal crazyness but in 2002 my bone marrow set on fire!...:confused:

Well what really happened was that my Kundalini was blown whilst i was under extreme stress bot physically and mentally at work. My bones and inside my bones felt like they were on fire as energy blasted through my body. It was a nasty experience as I walked around like a 90yr old for a week or so and I was only 29 then:eek: I couldnt lift the lightest weight and being a body builder it made me very peed off.

When I first heard coldplays song 'Fix you' there was a line in the chorus what said "Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones" well thats what happened to me.

How you??

I have had several experiences throughout my life from early childhood. Most noticeably when I almost died and had a nde, a crop circle experience in the early days of crop circles, shared dreams, some esp throughout my life and more recently a very weird experience when researching 911.

I've had several awakenings throughout my life as I believe awakening is not a single finite event but a continual process of growing awarness.

My initial major awakening was around twenty years ago when I had my first encounter with a ghost or spirit, this was an in your face undeniable experience that turned me from a devout card carrying atheist on to the spiritual path. I have grown in awareness since then.

Another major leap in awareness or awakening was hearing David Icke speaking on News for the soul a couple of years back, I instantly resonated with what he had to say and realised for the first time the illusory nature of reality. For a couple of months after I felt as if I was light as air and I awoke to the true me, imagine when you buy a new car and you first get inside and feel around where all the controls are, adjust the seat and steering wheel for your requirements, well thats how I felt in my body. A new me had awoken and it felt like I was in my body for the first time. I was no longer my idea of myself(ego) I had become infinite possibility.

I felt the spirit of all of the native tribes of earth flowing through me, sounds strange as it is hard to explain, but I could feel the American Indian, Australian aboriginal, Masai warrior and Japanese Samurai spirit all as part of me.

With regard to awakening to the conspiracy, well I guess watching 911 happen live on my TV did that as I'm sure it did with many others, that was a mass awakening event. This lead me to further study and I had always had an interest in politics.
Another awakening was watching John Pilgers - Breaking the silence, this changed my poitical world view for good.

My most recent awakening was about half an hour ago when my alarm went off, still a bit sleepy and need some food so I'm off for breakfast now. Ciao.

i am 20 years old at this moment, had always had the feeling something is wrong with society... but people always shuffed that "this is the way the world is, conform now please!" crap into my throat.

aged 16, i was a bit fed up with it all. everything was fake in this world, including me. i started using marijuana, which only made my problem worse. but psylocybin mushrooms have helped me find in myself my hunger for truth and love.

aged 18, i still was struggling a lot with it all... my psychedelic drugs usage was leading me nowhere. around this age i had a breakthrough experience, which turned me into spirituality.

during this psychedelic trip, the i who i thought i was, was no more. i died and became one with existence. the most extreme and pleasurable experience of my life. when i came back to reality, my thoughts tried to understand what i had experienced but it was impossible. all that was left was a vague rememberance of something which might be pointed to with the words "god" or "love", and i wanted to experience that again. without much success though, because i never experience ego-death again.

ever since i've been trying to get closer and closer to true love. david icke's "infinite love is the only truth, everything else is illusion" helped me a lot in this period. it helped me realize what's going on with the world and ourselves, and it sent me into the direction of ZEN...

at this point in time i don't use psychedelic drugs anymore, maybe i will again one day in the distant future.
nowadays i focus on meditation and being here now. this way of being, has given me all i was looking for and much more. :)

My initial major awakening was around twenty years ago when I had my first encounter with a ghost or spirit, this was an in your face undeniable experience that turned me from a devout card carrying atheist on to the spiritual path. I have grown in awareness since then.

when i was seven years old, i had a 104-5 fever. my parents didn't have the money to take me to the hospital, so i had to sweat it out. at some point, i realized even at that age i was out in the astral plain, being interrogated by some rather unpleasant characters. all i remember saying was, no! no! no! it must have worked, because i never saw them again, but i was afraid of the dark until i was 15 or 16.

Another major leap in awareness or awakening was hearing David Icke speaking on News for the soul a couple of years back, I instantly resonated with what he had to say and realised for the first time the illusory nature of reality. For a couple of months after I felt as if I was light as air and I awoke to the true me, imagine when you buy a new car and you first get inside and feel around where all the controls are, adjust the seat and steering wheel for your requirements, well thats how I felt in my body. A new me had awoken and it felt like I was in my body for the first time. I was no longer my idea of myself(ego) I had become infinite possibility.

when i first started watching david's video, i was very skeptical; i thought i'd hear the usual conspiracy message, which usually ended in "kill the jews" ( i've lived in kkk territory most of my life; i don't know any but the catholic church has been on the shit list in these parts for decades :o

but when i heard him say, "the power of the pyramid is at the base", i began to perk up. his message was empowering. i think this video was made in 97; so he's been consistently deliverying the same message: responsibility, awareness, forgiveness.

btw, i want to witness for your quote above. your car analogy is precisely the same metaphor i heard from a person who i believe is an example of Awakened Consciousness. outstanding, jimi! well played!! :) i honor you, and thanks for sharing your experience.

i remember sitting in mediation that morning. my wife came out and said a plane had hit the world trade center. and out of nowhere, my mouth opened and said, "the children of shiva are home." my wife looked at me like i was out of my mind (which i probably was). freaked me out, i can tell you.

have a great day! :)

Hey everybody! (Finally I can post); Lots of great and wonderful people here... Been monitoring this site for a long time...

Anyway... My first ("There Is No Spoon": awakening) experiance was at the age of 7 when I realized, something is not normal "here". I was with my cousin walking around some church near the vinyard, ... (So to make long story short); I've pulled this sharp grass and cut my (left hand) finger really bad. Cousin replyed: "Don't look at it because it will disappear" I believed him, and felt very strange... Moments later it was gone... He replyed: "See that's normal"... There were more wierd experiances in the following years... Finally 3 years ago when found Icke's material it fully made me open my eyes and mind - I was crying in happines (don't know why but it set me free)...

After being a fundamentalist christian all my life I began having thoughts like; " I don't trust organized religion. There is something odd going on."

I had to divorce my husband to save my life (due to stress) but the bible said I could never remarry or I would be an adultress. I was willing to stay single! But, why would god not want me to remarry? It got me to thinking, amongst other things, why would god create hell?

I asked someone close to me if she loved her child, oh absolutely! What if her child had done every wicked thing that could be done, the worst, would she pour gasoline on that child and light a match for punishment? Absolutely not! Well, why would god create hell? Answer: God could never do such a thing, God IS infinite love and never judges us - just loves us.

Then one day I was shopping online for some DVDs and ordered The Repilian Agenda by David Icke thinking it was sci fi. I played it and couldn't understand one word being said, not one and I turned it up all they way. I put them aside thinking I would donate them or toss them out later. A few weeks after that I was thinking I need to find alternative news. I found "News For the Soul" radio on the internet and listened to one of David's interviews, went out that day and bought his books, read them and totally freaked out. Then I remembered the DVDs, played them and then could understand what was being said.

Now, I understand a lot more about the world and why it is the way it is. It may sound funny but I am happier now than I have ever been inspite of all! Actually, I love my life!

Love and blessings, Marguerite

Mine has happened incrementally over the past couple of years. But strangely enough, not so long ago I wondered when my awakening started happening to me. Just then for a split second I can remember somewhere in 2000, one night late while watching telly on one of the channels played Rage Against The Machine's "Wake Up" Matrix version video.

Now, at the time I was NOT a Matrix fan (I only cought on 3 years later with the dvd release of "Reloaded"), I honestly thought it was just another over-the-top fancy sci-fi. Near the end of the song (also, I thought this was a new track) Zack de la Roche starts an almost frantic x8 scream of "Wake Up!!!!!!!!", and now I realised that somehow that bit deep inside my soul set off something. It took a short while to take effect, but a few months later I got hold of David's Robot's Rebellion. It was hard chewing for me, because I had alot of plans for my future with high aspirations. i used to love reading all kinds of inspirational and self-help stuff. But "something" was always missing...unclear...holding me back...

I was not happy with that splinter in my mind, just like I had stopped praying in church a few years b4 that, and felt I needed to know more...but what?? (these days I'm not religious, but I'll respect religious folk if they respect me. I suppose there is truth in all religions, if you can see through the BS.)
My first step then, was getting my head around organized religion.

Since starting on Robot's Rebellion, I experinced all kinds of little synchronicities and coincedinces (that continues to this day) at just the right time for me to "get it", but the most significant one I guess was buying David's "The Biggest Secret" on...wait for it...September 10th 2001. I was very interested in what the book had to say on Diana, since her death had a weird and sad impact on me in 1997. I remember that night Sept 10th 2001 reading about the "movie" the Illuminati kept on playing before us all to be hypnotised by, and if it wasn't for the inside job attacks the next day, I might have had alot of trouble seeing through the media BS.

Nowadays it's about staying awake more than anything. How else, the red pill has been administered. Even if a person is aware of the Matrix or Maya or whatever, you're still, well -here-. But not getting bogged in this greatest of illusions is probably everyone's greatest challenge. *Queen's song, I Want To Break Free jumps to mind*
