Spiritual Journeys

To Post or not to Post

My name is Ian.

We have experiences in our lives that we think no one will understand or even care about, so why write about them.

I was told that you should write down your experiences, you never know who that might help or inspire. My argument was that, they usually doesn’t have the same meaning when interpreted by someone else.
What I have written is as close as possible that words can convey of my spiritual experiences.

I have been labeled a Christian, a Hare Krsna & many other labels probably not printable for public viewing. the labels don’t mean much to me, I have learnt that the condition of our hearts emotionally is what really matters.
In Christian scripture they say that the Kingdom is within ourselves,
in the Krsna books they say to be Krsna realised you have to see Krsna in your own heart.
Christians say the only way to see God is with a clean heart.

Somehow I noticed a theme here.
We are on a journey to get back to God or the Father. There are certain things we must address before that is possible.
My experiences are part of that journey that everyone is actually on, if they could take the time to get to know their own heart.
The pictures and movies I have added are only part of an Assignment I have undertaken whilst at Tafe learning Web Design, It is impossible to make movies and pictures of our spiritual experiences, and still accurately portrait what we mean to others. Well at the moment it still is.

Thankyou.

The Only Way?

Probably the most important of all my experiences was when I was sitting next to Krsna I had a question to put to him that was puzzling me very much. I told him I was sick of all the division. One religion wanting to pursue another, fighting over differing beliefs and opinions. I asked him. Is it true that everyone has to get back in via the Lord Jesus Christ? His answer was “Yes”. What I meant was to get back into Gods Kingdom. Maybe a few religions better practice a bit more mercy and compassion as well. I argued once with a Muslem friend that was being very judgmental at the time. I said you believe Allah is the Compassionate and Merciful. How are you like Allah. Where is your compassion and mercy. If you dont have any then you dont have Allah.

There was also another part in the Koran that said “We are about to take Jesus back up to God, and place all his followers above the rest.” It seems that the writers of the Koran had much more interest in those that taught by example, compassion and mercy, than those that read the Koran, and miss quoted it. The end result I see is, God gave all of us choice. We can be mean and nasty, or helpful and loving. We can be angry and destroy everything around us or choose to maintain all that is Good. What God showed me is very few actually ask him to get better. Like people sitting in a hospital not wanting a cure. I learnt to pray to have my heart cleaned. Everything I didn’t like or think was appropriate about myself I asked him to fix. Anyone can ask him to have their hearts mended. You don’t need a priest. Look within your own hearts, and at your own attitudes. What would you like changed. God loves all, not just a select few. He is only waiting for us to communicate with him. There is nothing that God can’t fix, he invented all that is. Some say why does God allow evil. Because he gives everyone choice. What do you want to choose to be like. We must be honest with him, like we like others to be honest with us.

Krsnas Flute.

I was once standing there watching Krsna play his flute. I had seen him a few times, this time I thought it would be nice if I could see his flute up close. Instantly the flute was in front of me about 300mm from my face. I noticed a huge ring on his left hand. In my earlier years I had made a few pieces of jewellery, and fashioned a few stones, so this ring really stood out. It was square in shape with large rounded corners, and a big blue unfacited stone inset into it. I was really intrigued that the stone was natural. I tried to find out what the name of the ring and stone was, or where there is script explaining the different forms of his jewellery. If anyone has access to this information, please comment.

Sprinkle

When I was sitting next to Krsna I noticed a Person I knew walk in with his head hanging down looking at the ground. krsna&hanuman

He lifted his head and as soon as he looked at Krsna he started walking backwards and said that he couldn’t be here. A voice came from Krsna and said to him “Don’t go”. He kept on walking backwards away from him, and kept saying “I can’t be here.”Krsna kept saying “No don’t go.” This time two guys with big long spears crossed their spears behind him to stop him from leaving. Krsna then said to him “Do you want to get better.” Krsna then sprinkled something on top of his head.

The Video I have added is a bit of a discussion on consciousness, and what we listen to or shouldn’t listen to. The war that Jesus won in the desert for 40 days & nights was the battle within the mind. Satan wanted control of all beings by being their conscious. Controlling how people felt towards many things. Perfect peace means, No Voices in the head at all. The only true voices are in your heart, not your head.
Jesus always used scripture to fight Satan saying, “It is written.”

Return Journey to Krishna

To carry on from before, I meditated again and saw the Crowned, blue guy on the throne and thought that, this time I would go over and kiss him on the feet as some sort of respect.

A few weeks went by and I decided that I would try to meditate again and see what would be happening. This time it was like I didn’t have my own will any more, I went over towards him around behind him, and sat down at his right hand side.

I had a visit from a lady I knew and whilst I was talking about spiritual subjects like I like doing, she said that she could see a doorway. What she meant is that her spirit saw a spiritual doorway. I asked her “How many times had she seen the doorway?”. She replied that she had seen the doorway between about 6 or 7 times. I then asked her what she does when she sees the doorway. She replied that she stands there at the doorway. My spirit then in a rather vocally intense manner said to her. “Then walk in.” She then (her spirit )walked in. She then said that she could see people walking around dressed in white, she could see Jesus, she could see a very tall being, and she could also see me sitting next to Krishna. I was amazed that she could see exactly what I had been experiencing, my spirit  sitting next to Krishna.

All this is one big learning curve for me. It makes me realise how many people judge different scriptures with absolutely no experience or understanding of either. Their greatest asset to their judging is their total non belief of anything they have not experienced. A bit of a common error to most of mankind.

I have added a picture here for the sake of an assignment I am doing, but none of the pictures I have seen actually look like the being that I have seen.

Krsna. Real or Unreal?

I had been learning a bit about Hare Krsna activities and decided to see if there was anything in this stuff. I had learnt that their meditation if done properly would take you on the journey within your own heart. I had read in Christian scripture that the Kingdom was within each of us in our own hearts.

That night I started to do the chant they use, concentrating on their being the right emotion, the right focus and attentiveness to the process. The journey is a spiritual journey, not a physical journey. I had learnt in my early twenties to meditate using yoga, and this helped considerably in learning to focus spiritually.

I started to view spiritually going on this journey towards a light. The light got brighter and brighter as I got closer. I then stopped in the light. The light was very bright, but I was left with feeling that there is more.

I was mildly annoyed that I had only got as far as the light. For about a week or so I was pondering over what was beyond the light. And then I recieved a message spiritually saying to go deeper. To go deeper meant that my focus on my heart had to be deeper and then I would then go deeper. It is all relative to the intensity in which you meditate and the depth to which you focus as to whether this process achieves anything. i then meditated that night chanting and meditating on my emotions and went to the light again, only this time I went past the light and into what looked like a throne room. There sitting on a Golden Throne in a blue to slight purple colour tone was a being with an Indian type crown on his head. I leaned forward to look closer and said, “Wow he is blue.”

This was my first journey into my heart. Many had told me what books had said, but to experience is a totally different subject. Someone that hasn’t experienced is no judge of what someone else has experienced. All of this was a happening I did not expect. I had not been staring at images to try to make them appear in my mind, I was a christian, and such things are regarded as imagery, idolatry or some other mystical substance.

If you want prayer to work, you have to really mean it. Japa in Krsna followings is meant to be prayer, not ritualised number crunching , or competition over who has done the most rounds. Here is some interesting reading for those interested. How to chant correctly.  Part 1: The beginning.

Who are we?

Mant years ago I followed my feelings and ended up at a friends place some 12 km from where I was living. I had been conversing with her for some time and now it was time for rest. I slept on the lounge that night.

As I was drifting into sleep I could feel some sort of presence of some sort going across the loungeroom floor. I couldn’t see anything, but I could feel something there. It was heading for my friends daughters room. I then prayed and asked God to not let what ever it was hassle her daughter.

I could feel that it had changed direction and was coming towards me. I still couldn’t see anything. Next thing I started getting choked by whatever this thing was. I remember thinking that what a weird situation it would be for my friend, to get up in the morning and me be dead there on the lounge. I had remembered friends of mine having possessed beds and waking up and not even be able to scream with things choking them.

A voice then said as I was being choked, would I give my life to God. I thought for a moment, because I new there were false Gods, and answered, only if it is to help the Lord Jesus Christ. Next thing it felt like something getting dragged out of the top of my head, and a sound like a bell getting lightly struck, like a ping or ding sound. I didn’t know what had happened so I went on with life as usual. Two weeks later in the local shopping center an old lady I didn’t know came up to me, looked me straight in the face and said that I had the devil taken out of my head. Amazing, I didn’t even know that he had been in my head. Question, does anyone know when he is or isn’t.

Later I found out that perfect peace of mind is absolutely no voices in your head. Intriguing how many of those voices pretend to be us, or our conscious, giving us heaps of advice on what to do. They have been using the human race like puppets. No more for this one thankyou very much.

In and out of the Pits

What do you do in your dreams?

I am trying to put to blog my most vivid dreams. The ones that stay with you forever. Maybe you dream too.
This time I was sitting in a dim lit area. There were about 200 people sitting in an area behind a very large being on a seat about 15 metres away. I was disturbed by the outbursts from this being and quietly said to the person next to me “What a hypocrite. He’s the one that made them do it.”
imagesNext thing the being on the seat turns around all p’d off and points his finger at me and throws me up into the air. I was hovering about 20 metres in the sky . He then throws this big beam of light at me. By this time I had had about enough of bull xxxx artists and there power crap dominance of everyone else. I got p’d off and caught the beam of light in my left hand and threw it back at him with my right hand. it hit him so hard it threw him through a hole in the floor and sealed him over.
If you trust God, anything can happen.

Note the Horns above his head.
