Who am I and what is my soul purpose?
Who am I and what is my soul purpose?
In the few weeks and months leading to my last blogging break, I felt that something has already begun to shift inside me. I was gradually questioning the futility of having spiritual experiences without the realization of deeper truths. Let me explain further.
(Where am I on my self growth journey?)
For a time while seeking for answers to “who am I”, I was led into past life experiences, out-of-body experiences and different dimensions. These personal experiences were triggered both on the conscious and the unconscious levels. They helped me discover with some important realizations. One of my most first knowing was that I was a spirit having a human experience and not the other way round.
What happens when your intuition and logic are at odds with each other?
A state of unrest. Internal conflict.
You feel as if you are in some kind of a crisis, because of the perception that one wrong move in decision making will change the entire course of your life.
You are in pain for days, finding it hard to make a choice. It is hard to keep your mind still, under these circumstances. Your mind is being held captive by an escalation of conflicting thoughts.
When I am able to strip away all the false notions of self, I gain access to an underlying space of awareness. It is the silent witness, the observer to all there-is, that I find myself tuning into. Indeed, nature invited me to learn from observing the terrapin (see picture below) at the start of my blogging break last month.
“Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain.” — Henry David Thoreau
Time has been my enemy for as long as I can remember. I was always in a rush for time. More so after my kids came. There were never-ending chores to do and tasks to run. On top of that, I was at odds with myself often for hoping to work in-between and choosing an arrangement that puts my kids’ needs high in priority.
(No time to sit still?)
Time was a precious commodity that I longed for but never quite got a fix on. I tried to accomplish as much as I could within my waking hours. Over four months, prior to my blogging break, I became a slave to time with increasing demands from work. Amazingly, my first lesson was about time when I started my blogging break.
I am back to blogging with the launch of my new site at Abundance Tapestry. Abundance Tapestry came into being as a result of intuitive flashes that I had while meditating.
The flashes appeared like a mosaic of pictures but the pictures were hardly separate. I sensed that each related to one another in a complex web of relationships orchestrated by a higher order of intelligence.
I will be taking a break from blogging. The break is to allow for more time in meditation, without the distraction of the internet. It will be a period of consolidation and contemplation. The thing is that I have no idea when I will be back.
(Picture taken yesterday at a park yesterday. The roots represent groundedness, reminding us the importance of building a strong foundation in everything that we do. It is only in stillness that provides the most solid grounding of all – hence my inspired words “Movement gives Life but Stillness is my Grounding”.)
To align with abundance is to realise first and foremost: We are all Energy.
We come from the same Source. Our physical BEing is an expression of Source Energy wishing to know itself. Source Energy can only know itself experientially. It cannot know its essential nature without the benefit of experience. For instance, it cannot truly know that it is Divine Love without an experience of love or its polar-opposite, fear.
The essential nature of Source/God/Universe is love, peace, compassion. It is of pure intelligence and infinite abundance. It is ever-present, eternal, expansive and never-changing. Since we are Source expressed in a physical form, our basic nature is one and the same.

To meditate does not mean to fight with a problem.
To meditate means to observe.
Your smile proves it.
It proves that you are being gentle with yourself,
that the sun of awareness is shining in you,
that you have control of your situation.
You are yourself,
and you have acquired some peace.– Thich Nhat Hahn
Life between lives (or otherwise known as “life between life” or “LBL”) is the state whereby your soul is in-between two lives. It is the period from after your spirit leaves your physical body in the last life to just prior to physical incarnation in this current lifetime. If you so wish to, it is also possible to access into any in-between lives.

The easiest way to access your LBL memory is through a hypnotherapy session. I had a life-between-life regression therapy myself some two weeks ago. If you are interested in an account of what happened, read on. The details are mostly compiled from a transcript of the audio recording made while I was in session.

“The Warrior of Light does not worry that, to others, his behavior may seem mad.
He talks out loud to himself when he is alone. Someone told him that this is the best way of communicating with the angels, and so he takes a chance and tries to make contact.
