Sharing our “fantastic moments” or not?
Session n ° 5 of October 9, 2021 – English translation- original Dutch/English.
Location: Mezza Verde in Belgium.
Note Wivine:
Here are answers to questions from someone who is part of our group for several
months. He lives in Colombia and here I call him Oscar. These are questions
that many people ask themselves, including those who have not received the
“activation” of the “Spirit receptive glands”
as a result of situations they sometimes face.
Oscar: I was unable to attend the special group meditation. I decided to meet
my wife's needs and do some shopping. Even though you tell me that it's not
possible to consistently attend all weekly group meditations, I feel like I'm
missing a lot. I know there are still days to come, so I will try to be there
every time.
Wivine: It is possible to follow these special group
meditations regularly if you wish. However, it always can happen that it is not
possible. It happened to me twice so far. With some others a little more. There
are always exceptional cases: work, health, travel, family problems, etc.
Everyone is doing their best to participate. You can meditate in a car (when you are not driving), in a hospital waiting room, on a train, on an
airplane or in an airport, at work (in the toilet), in a
restaurant, on a terrace, in a church, on a bench in a park. It is not so much
the time you meditate that matters, but the willingness and desire to meditate
or participate in a group meditation. It doesn't always have to be in the best
conditions.
Oscar: There is a personal question running through my mind. We no longer
have the responsibility to enlighten our loved ones, our friends, celebrities
etc. It is the work of their God Fragment.
Unless, if I understand correctly, they ask us something.
Yet sometimes I feel the urge to speak, ask a question, or make a few
comments about obvious situations, even when I'm not asked. I refrain from doing
it, except when someone asks me something.
I realize that they have to find their own answers. This is not only
part of the process of their soul evolution, but I could also take away their "fantastic moments" when they discover
something new. These "fantastic moments" which for me are the best
part of this path of soul evolution.
It's not like I'm already an Enlightened Man or a God-Man (I'm still a long way off, though I'm getting closer
every day). I was always quiet
before ... now I always want to talk about it.
Wivine: There is a big difference between
"evangelizing" as it is with many biblical religions and other
religions. There are so many philosophies, religions and cults. Most of them
revolve around the truths of a holy man who died long ago and whose words were
written hundreds of years after his death. In addition, many older wisdoms and
ritualistic practices have been absorbed into these new wisdoms which produced
the religions and the philosophies of today with their holy books. Other
wisdoms have been lost because they were kept secret or because they were
disturbing. Such was the case of former Great Heads of State who wished to have
a State religion. Organized religion and politics have always been closely
linked. Statesmen and priesthoods are made up of people, and people are often
hungry for power and wealth. They certainly had this power at a time when
"the people" were illiterate and the arms of statesmen aided the
priesthoods in case they did not have their own army. Not much has changed in
the world. Many political conflicts have their origin in religious conflicts
and vice versa. They are like the left and right shoe of the same pair.
Those who know that they are inhabited by a "Divine spark", a "Fragment of God", or "Thought Adjuster" and initiate this contact
personally, at any age, evolve differently and faster on the spiritual plane.
The knowledge of "the indwelling Spirit"
is much more widespread than you think and even very old.
Spreading this knowledge is important to empower people to take charge
of their own spiritual development. So that they become "Master" of their spiritual career and no
longer a "follower or slave" who remains dependent on the words of
another human, who crystallizes the truths of a Holy Book.
This Divine Truth and Wisdom that we receive from inside is living,
evolving and transforming all the time as our soul grows and can understand
more.
But you have to feel for yourself where, when, what and with whom you
can do it. It doesn't matter if they do something with it immediately or not.
Just plant the seed. Never try to convince them compulsively. Everyone receives
their time, has free will and that "time" goes well beyond the years
of our physical life on earth.
If the urge to talk arises when you are in company, first ask yourself
if
- this is not coming from your "ego"? Or
- is it an
impulse from your "indwelling Thought Adjuster" who wants to talk to
others through you?
I explain more on this further, by answering your last
question.
Before entering into meditation, we always express our intention to
receive spiritual guidance from our spirit guides and to contact our “indwelling
Divine spark”. Then we close our eyes and try to silence our thoughts. Which
doesn't always work, but it doesn't matter.
There are many types of meditations that came from the east and now even
from health care. None is intended to contact our indwelling God Fragment.
It is this declaration of intent that opens
the door and makes the difference. Especially if it comes from the
heart.
Our daily life brings many kinds of problems. We include them in our
meditations and ask for advice and solutions. The answers come, intuitively or
a little more clearly. This is how we discover the indescribable Wisdom and
Divine Love ; that we learn to apply them in our lives and to transform
ourselves as God wants us to be.
Oscar: My wife is the closest person to me who knows something about what I (we)
do, but she isn't interested in the depth of those things. Sometimes she leaves
me alone. Other times she complains that I never do anything… (she's pregnant and nervous sometimes, but other times
I think she wants my attention all the time, which is good too). Serving doesn't mean doing nothing, but I don't
tell her that. I'm just saying ‘I'm meditating’. I no longer respond to her
comments (even from before the “activation”), I finally understood. Yet I would like to tell her
how I feel when I draw closer to the Light,
or when I feel this peace that is beyond all
understanding.
Wivine: I'll talk about my experience. I am noticeably older
than the two of you. First of all, it is true that we, women, need a lot of
attention, especially when we are young. It disappears or changes over time.
Although not for all of us. When a woman is expecting a child, it weighs on her
body and her mind. Sometimes she feels like everything is getting too heavy; a
woman then calls for help and seeks support. It's normal. Explain to her why
you are meditating and what it means to you. If she doesn't want to know it, accept
it.
Meditating was and remains a waste of time for my husband. How can
you sit around for so long without thinking about something? Our mind must
always be occupied with something, otherwise we lose precious time.
I could never get that out of his head and he certainly didn't want to
try meditation. After many discussions, I asked him to give me this freedom and
to respect it. Just like I gave him the freedom to play all his sports, come
home late and never complain. I asked him to respect my faith as I respect his
or his disbelief. In other words, let's stop convincing each other that we are right.
This is what convinced him and since then we have lived much more peacefully
together with all due respect to each other's hobbies and faith. We still
argue, but about other things.
Every couple experiences this kind of problems at the start. We all
ended up solving this problem with our partner. Don’t give up.
Mutual respect and tolerance begins in your own couple or family. It
becomes more difficult with your friends, your work environment, other members
of your family. Make the experience. It's different everywhere, life is a learning
school.
If you no longer know what to do: ask your "God Fragment", HE has
always a solution.
Maybe there is something in your own behavior that you need to change?
The problem is not always with the other.
Sharing your “fantastic spiritual moments” is
impossible with someone who has never experienced them. You can't describe this
feeling or transfer it to someone who doesn't know what you're talking about.
Be careful with this. Again, experiment: Wisdom comes with age!
Oscar: I know this is nothing new for someone who has been following this or
a similar path for some time. I even wonder if Jesus was not misunderstood.
What I really want to know is this: Will these “fantastic
experiences” ever be fully shared here on Earth with our loved ones?
You've been doing this for a while, so I'm asking how it's been on your
side of life. I know you have distanced yourself from your family, but what
about your husband? It may be too personal to ask. Please feel free to respond
as you wish.
Wivine: I just answered that. I will elaborate a little
more.
Whether you want to share your “fantastic moments” with others is up to
you. You can share everything.
It is up to you to experience their reactions. There are no rules for
this. You have to learn from experience with who, about what and when to remain
silent. It depends on your environment and their faith. Try it out. Shout it
from the rooftops if you want, wait for the reactions and you'll see.
You need this experience. You will learn a lot from it. Also the way your ego functions
and where it hides when you feel the need to tell others about your religious
experiences or faith.
It is not easy, it comes with experience if you try to do it honestly,
conscientiously.
You can still share your wonderful personal moments with people who know
what you are talking about, but there are few at the moment. There will
certainly be more in the decades to come.
However, this urge that you feel so strong to share these “fantastic
moments” will fade over time. You will see. They will become your private
moments with God and will remain so because your inner vessel will have grown.
Over time it will be able to contain more and more before overflowing.
There is yet another phenomenon that can occur.
The person who walks the path of “inner personal faith” learns new
truths, thus has moved away from his/hers old faith which no longer serves him/her.
Then arises for many the need to proclaim it to the world and to convince
others.
But what are you going to do when new truths arise every six months that
will throw again your beliefs overboard? Will you remain believable if every 6
months you tell people something else? How can you be sure that what you know
and believe today will still be your truth the day after tomorrow? Because it
goes fast and always faster.
This phenomenon will also teach you to remain silent about your beliefs
and only disclose what is essential.
Every old faith or belief that you throw away today was once a
scaffolding that brought you to these new spiritual perspectives. Maybe the
others you meet still need that same "scaffolding" to be able to take
the next step. The one where you are now.
How will you know what to do or say the right thing to promote the
spiritual development of another person?
You may also be faced with a very evolved soul who is much more advanced
than you. How are you going to find out? Because preaching a convinced person
who knows more than you is embarrassing. I know something about it.
There will definitely be times when you meet friends, acquaintances or
strangers, who will speak you about their problems as if you are the one with
all the answers. It is then that you will feel an inner urge to say something.
But be careful, don't say what you want to tell.
Before speaking, always ask your inner guidance to put in your mouth the
words that the person or group in front of you needs to hear in order to take
their next step. To receive the words they need, the words with which their God
Fragment can then work in their minds.
When you've asked for it, clear your head and start talking. The right
words will come out of your mouth on their own. You will realize this because
it certainly will not be what you would have said.
It all takes practice. Reading about it doesn't help. Practice and
practice until you get good, until your ego fades to make way for your "indwelling
little God".
Only then will you be of real help to your fellowmen on a spiritual
level. Only then will you no longer get in the way of the other's Divine
Fragment. On the contrary, you will be helping the other's God Fragment by
letting "yours" speak through you.
Not my will but your Will my God!
End.
