Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
The entire world, as a collective conscious, has been going through our own Dark Night of the Soul. St. John of the Cross describes this episode of the human condition in his writings of the same name.

The Dark Night of the Soul is when the soul goes through extreme hardship without the comfort of God or Jesus standing near, guiding the soul, giving the soul - and its constitute human body - faith in the spirit.

I am not of any denomination of religion, but I am very spiritual. So this is not about the various religious sects. This is about spirituality and nothing more.

During our possibly greatest need as a collectively intelligent, spiritual race of beings, we have been cut off from the Source. For those finding their way back, it has been a truly miraculous life now being lived. I know who you are... you are the ones experiencing the impossible. No one believes your experiences, because the only way to believe them is to experience them personally.

You are the torch bearer in the darkness. The spark of light in a massive Dark Night of the Soul. You found your way back to spirit through immense adversary... and your experiences, beyond the realm of the physical are, paradoxically, your grounding to this life's existence and purpose.

The changes are coming, because you are experiencing them happen in your own tabernacle. And the experiences are not relenting, but rather growing greater and more extreme. So take time out and imagine the ones not consciously experiencing the change. Have faith that they will have the strength to spiritually survive the coming end of this Dark Night. As you know, experiencing the impossible can easily shatter the mind... and you have taken steps in the process. They will be denied the progressive steps of learning that you have had.

Have faith. Humility. Personally you understand the difficulties soon to be faced. So rise above the tumult and reach down with a helping hand. The Dark Night of the Soul is ending, and you must be ready.

Cool thread Ss.

I dig it. Hope there are enough of us that survived to make an impact on the coming tribulations.
The engravings translate to "This space intentionally left blank."

The prayer is inscribed in an ancient script, rarely used today. It seems to be a philippic against small insects, absent-mindedness, and the picking up and dropping of small objects.

The gate is open; through it you can see a desolation, with a pile of mangled bodies in one corner. Thousands of voices, lamenting some hideous fate, can be heard.
The way through the gate is barred by evil spirits, who jeer at your attempts to pass.

Once you have done the weeding out of the fear out of your own belief system, which could be viewed as raising your frequency, at some point when you reach a threshold, you will be tested by spirit to see if you are a "Clean" vessel.

What this means in laymans terms is whatever bagage you have will be made manifest during this time, sink or swim time, much like when when Luke asks Yoda "What's in the cave?", Yoda replies "Only what you take with you"...

Fear and Love are the only two choices you will have.

Your thoughts and desires create reality.

So, what is your choice?

What future do you want?

Will you create your future through fear or self-empowerment?

Does your future include war with extraterrestrial beings?

Would you prefer a future in which the Powers that be continue their destructive, manipulative control through fear?

Or, do you prefer to choose peace, harmony and the evolution of all beings, including TPTB? (In other words, to help TPTB see another option by using his compassion and forgiveness for themselves and others.)

Do you believe we all have had enough of war?

suffering?

struggle?

murder?

destruction?

and negative ego-driven power plays?

Are you at a point in your belief where you can see each being as yourself and as an expression of God?

Do you feel all can coexist in harmony, with equality and respect?

Take back your real power: re-member who you are and use the power of love.

When you are clear about the future you desire, state it out loud.

Share it here with all who may see your point of view and may share that view.

Put your intentions out into the airwaves, into the webwaves and make a difference for yourself.

You count a great deal in the big picture. Choose the future you want to create.

Choose now. And remember, not choosing is also a choice, but the way of the unconscious.

I send you all my highest love when baring this cross on your own shoulders and may you bring a swift end to the endless flowing of the blood and tears.

Peace,
Michael

A wonderful post. Thank you. My last Dark Night of the Soul was on Aug. 24 of this year. I know exactly what you are addressing here.

I have a question. What does the above BOLD statement mean? When the dark night of the soul ends are thing going to be even more difficult. I say this becuase that dark night of the soul is very difficult as is. So can you elaborate on what that means.

Thanks so much. Really great post.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 759318


In reference strictly to what I stated above, it is this. Those who seek out their inner selves are given a gift. That gift is the opportunity to take steps in achieving spiritual goals. Previous steps are necessary to understand and comprehend the spiritual progress being made by the individual. If steps are skipped over or ignored altogether, distortion and confusion clouds the soul.

I know that in my experiences, steps were necessary in understanding what was going on within me. If I saw or experienced something absolutely impossible to the everyday world, I was able to assimilate it (thanks to those previous steps, or experiences) and not think that I am 'losing my mind'. But when I imagine trying to assimilate the experiences without those previous steps, the leap is too great to make! I think I would go CRAZY!

Now I think about all those people that, when the 'Dark Night' ends and impossible things manifest to everyone, what will they think? Some family members and close friends can't even wrap their minds around just some of the things I have experienced. If they were thrown into it, if the things that I experienced manifested to them all at once, they would need help in understanding what is happening. They would need a helping hand to show them that we are not all going insane, but we are all changing.

I don't know what the end of the Dark Night will consist of, but I do feel it to be very close, and I do know that it will involve the inner self, the human spirit, not on an individual scale as it does now, but a global scale.

Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
SS, I know all about what you write. I, personally, went through my dark night of the soul in my early 20s. It is a feeling of complete despair and aloneness. It was very scary and I resorted to things that I would rather not mention. Mine lasted for about a year. I NEVER want to feel that way again in my life!
This too shall pass...

very well written SS
I feel you about the spirituality, in a way I feel that being locked into one religion confines you from experiencing other religions and spiritual awareness - and thus growing as a spirit.
Though those deeply devoted find faith regardless.

One way you can experience the sensation of feeling "faith" is by being open towards spirituality and yourself, not limiting your mind/heart/soul by saying "this is the only way" and "to be with god you must do this and only this" I understand some people find faith in just one religion, if they have "enough faith" and im amased its possible, it goes against my intuition, but in truth, the individuals way to "god" or "faith" is unique, but all the roads start with opening up and accepting that perhaps you know nothing at all :o)
 Quoting: Michael_


I agree with you, Michael. All religions have some truth in them, and all of them have been distorted as well. I've always accepted all religions, and cringed at the distortions that manifest as well.

I resonate most strongly probably with eastern philosophies. It seems to have the least bit of distortion...but only makes sense once you begin Becoming enlightened. I remember reading Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching and not understanding a fucking thing, except in the most abstract of ways. Now, I can read through nearly the entire thing, and I can match up my experiences with each 'lesson' and completely understand what he was getting at.
 Quoting: SickScent

1 Corinthians 13:13
"Three things will last forever--faith, hope, and love--and the greatest of these is love."

So there you have it. Love is greater than hope or faith. There will be a season for each i presume.

Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
Tao Te Ching

14
We look at it, and we do not see it, and we name it 'the
Equable.' We listen to it, and we do not hear it, and we name it 'the
Inaudible.' We try to grasp it, and do not get hold of it, and we
name it 'the Subtle.' With these three qualities, it cannot be made
the subject of description; and hence we blend them together and
obtain The One.

Its upper part is not bright, and its lower part is not obscure.
Ceaseless in its action, it yet cannot be named, and then it again
returns and becomes nothing. This is called the Form of the Formless,
and the Semblance of the Invisible; this is called the Fleeting and
Indeterminable.

We meet it and do not see its Front; we follow it, and do not see
its Back. When we can lay hold of the Tao of old to direct the things
of the present day, and are able to know it as it was of old in the
beginning, this is called (unwinding) the clue of Tao.

100% agree.

I also think that each religion signifies a particular piece of the puzzle. Similar to your 'layers'. Each one 'teaches' something about ourselves. I do not think this was done intentionally, I feel it was 'created' like this because they are part of the human condition, and that is the way it just IS.

Similar to this concept is this: Thread: THE SEVEN SEALS = The Chakra System (Just an Idea...Food for Thought)

So, the religions by themselves are not the answer, they are only a step to the answer. The real answer lies in all of them as a whole within the human condition.

Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
So grateful for this thread. and like your site very much.
Am seeking light not darkness.

Last night I awoke to the dogs barking. Crawled out of my tent (much cooler in summer) and went to see what they were unhappy with. At one in the morning, someone was taking pictures of the house. When I asked what he was doing he told me that in a very sing song happy voice. I was in a t-shirt so i left it at that but it was strange.

then i dreamt of water pouring off a roof of a house and just by the way it was falling the dreamer me had the absolute conviction that there had been a nuclear incident.

i then awoke to find a shelf had fallen out of the old clay wall in the house. strewing her contents everywhere and leaving a damaged wall.

then, a friend whom i love dearly left me a message saying she can't believe that i would say what i said about her son who killed himself this time last year, aged 15. and the thing is i have nothing but love for her and hold her in such high regard and yet could feel her pushing me away.

my partner's mother is dying. she told me today that she is tired of it all, she has had enough. and yet she holds on to this tiny frail body. her beloved son is away. a wind has blown up from nowhere and i can't even offer her the solace of the garden.

and i am voicing but allow me the space. over the years,
after a life time of sincerely seeking and a lot of suffering joy became me. a simple joy not dependent on much to reign supreme. and yet this morning i awoke feeling threatened, troubled, separate, unentered.

went to the breath, stayed there for as long as i could.
fed the kids, fed the granny, fed the dogs, chickens, guinea, rabbit, and bird.
hanged the washing, walked to the shops. did some forward bends had some fruit.

i found this voice in my mind leading one into the loving kindness meditation and the words are

(they were originally may i - but i felt it far more appropriate to say we.

may we be safe, protected and free from inner and outer harm.

may we be happy and contended.

may we be healthy and whole to whatever degree possible.

may we experience ease of well being.

i really do believe we are on the edge of some momentous revision of reality and it really is moving completely into the unknown.
bringing forward nothing but love.

"in a way" he is right :) but I think people take it very literal, im sure Jesus would not have wanted people to worship him, but worship the father/creator instead, not of fear but of love.

what if he ment that people should see him as the road to the creator, why would you worship a road? it simply leads the way :o)

and I agree with you, how can people that love and care,be damned?.

No one believes your experiences, because the only way to believe them is to experience them personally.

You are the torch bearer in the darkness. The spark of light in a massive Dark Night of the Soul. You found your way back to spirit through immense adversary... and your experiences, beyond the realm of the physical are, paradoxically, your grounding to this life's existence and purpose.

The changes are coming, because you are experiencing them happen in your own tabernacle. And the experiences are not relenting, but rather growing greater and more extreme. So take time out and imagine the ones not consciously experiencing the change. Have faith that they will have the strength to spiritually survive the coming end of this Dark Night. As you know, experiencing the impossible can easily shatter the mind... and you have taken steps in the process. They will be denied the progressive steps of learning that you have had.

Have faith. Humility. Personally you understand the difficulties soon to be faced. So rise above the tumult and reach down with a helping hand. The Dark Night of the Soul is ending, and you must be ready.

Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
So grateful for this thread. and like your site very much.
Am seeking light not darkness.

Last night I awoke to the dogs barking. Crawled out of my tent (much cooler in summer) and went to see what they were unhappy with. At one in the morning, someone was taking pictures of the house. When I asked what he was doing he told me that in a very sing song happy voice. I was in a t-shirt so i left it at that but it was strange.

then i dreamt of water pouring off a roof of a house and just by the way it was falling the dreamer me had the absolute conviction that there had been a nuclear incident.

i then awoke to find a shelf had fallen out of the old clay wall in the house. strewing her contents everywhere and leaving a damaged wall.

then, a friend whom i love dearly left me a message saying she can't believe that i would say what i said about her son who killed himself this time last year, aged 15. and the thing is i have nothing but love for her and hold her in such high regard and yet could feel her pushing me away.

my partner's mother is dying. she told me today that she is tired of it all, she has had enough. and yet she holds on to this tiny frail body. her beloved son is away. a wind has blown up from nowhere and i can't even offer her the solace of the garden.

and i am voicing but allow me the space. over the years,
after a life time of sincerely seeking and a lot of suffering joy became me. a simple joy not dependent on much to reign supreme. and yet this morning i awoke feeling threatened, troubled, separate, unentered.

went to the breath, stayed there for as long as i could.
fed the kids, fed the granny, fed the dogs, chickens, guinea, rabbit, and bird.
hanged the washing, walked to the shops. did some forward bends had some fruit.

i found this voice in my mind leading one into the loving kindness meditation and the words are

(they were originally may i - but i felt it far more appropriate to say we.

may we be safe, protected and free from inner and outer harm.

may we be happy and contended.

may we be healthy and whole to whatever degree possible.

may we experience ease of well being.

i really do believe we are on the edge of some momentous revision of reality and it really is moving completely into the unknown.
bringing forward nothing but love.

Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
yes :o)
understand you know nothing, learn a new.
the old teachings will then make sence in a whole new way, or perhaps layer I feel.

I feel that there simply cannot just be 1 "true" religion.
the 1 true religion will have to be them all combined :o) minus the shitty parts haha.

one can meditate to find god and one can pray to god afterwards, it should not matter.
 Quoting: Michael_



Jesus teaches he is the only way to God the Father and i believe him but surely there must be another way out for those who will choose love over fear. I feel there should be. What would be the point of damning millions who chose love over fear and were willing to pay the ultimate penalty with their lives?

Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
At that momemnt Satan disappeared. Then Our Lady gave Mirjana the following message in substance:

"Excuse me for this, but you must realize that Satan exists. One day he appeared before the throne of God and asked permission to submit the Church to a period of trial. God gave him permission to try the Church for one century. This century is under the power of the devil; but when the secrets confided to you come ...to pass, his power will be destroyed. Even now he is beginning to lose his power and has become aggressive. He is destroying marriages, creating divisions among priests and is responsible for obsessions and murder. You must protect yourselves against these things through fasting and prayer, especially community prayer. Carry blessed objects with you. Put them in your house, and restore the use of holy water."

Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
I too went through the process, and it wasn't very pleasant at all. My point is that I made it out and I changed. And just the silliest thing is that I believe my cat dragged me out, lol lol.....

Everything has changed for me. Good things, bad things, no longer guide me through extremes of emotion. Groundedness and the knowing that it's all good has replaced stuff nowadays. Extreme satisfaction that my preaching to my kids has shone through and they're the most honourable and grounded adults I know makes me very happy.

Simple simple pleasures move me to tears now. It's snowing like a son of a gun today, and I took the time to drive on back roads to the bakery to buy hot bread. It was a joyous moment to smell the delicious bread smell and drive in such beautiful scenery. I did not appreciate this stuff before.

I also want to comment on SOON. Oh, I used to rail at the Universe for inventing the word soon. Everything always seemed to be coming soon.

I'm no longer annoyed by the word. Soon actually does mean soon to me. Time is now my friend it would appear. Another direct result of spending time in the abyss where time doesn't exist. Now time seems to be squeezing, and I don't know, maybe because we're, meaning our heliospere, is being squeezed, and time is seemingly contracting at a breakneck speed. I know it certainly seems that way to me. Now all moments are precious to me.

I don't know what's coming up next, but I do feel it's going to be the ride of our lives. I'm feeling that ascension is the name of the game, and I'm ready.

Cheers everyone!
Great Spirit, make me ready, for that last sunset, and my Spirit will come to you without shame.

Re: The World is going through a massive DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL, but it will be ending soon.
Once you have done the weeding out of the fear out of your own belief system, which could be viewed as raising your frequency, at some point when you reach a threshold, you will be tested by spirit to see if you are a "Clean" vessel.

What this means in laymans terms is whatever bagage you have will be made manifest during this time, sink or swim time, much like when when Luke asks Yoda "What's in the cave?", Yoda replies "Only what you take with you"...

Fear and Love are the only two choices you will have.

Your thoughts and desires create reality.

So, what is your choice?

What future do you want?

Will you create your future through fear or self-empowerment?

Does your future include war with extraterrestrial beings?

Would you prefer a future in which the Powers that be continue their destructive, manipulative control through fear?

Or, do you prefer to choose peace, harmony and the evolution of all beings, including TPTB? (In other words, to help TPTB see another option by using his compassion and forgiveness for themselves and others.)

Do you believe we all have had enough of war?

suffering?

struggle?

murder?

destruction?

and negative ego-driven power plays?

Are you at a point in your belief where you can see each being as yourself and as an expression of God?

Do you feel all can coexist in harmony, with equality and respect?

Take back your real power: re-member who you are and use the power of love.

When you are clear about the future you desire, state it out loud.

Share it here with all who may see your point of view and may share that view.

Put your intentions out into the airwaves, into the webwaves and make a difference for yourself.

You count a great deal in the big picture. Choose the future you want to create.

Choose now. And remember, not choosing is also a choice, but the way of the unconscious.

I send you all my highest love when baring this cross on your own shoulders and may you bring a swift end to the endless flowing of the blood and tears.

Peace,
Michael
