Holy Smokes!

[Wyze89]

So I was in church last Sunday, listening to the "joyful noise" going on in the sermon. As I started to breathe deeply the love and joy coming from everyone in the room, I see a wisp of smoke exit my nose. What does this mean?! This has happened to me before, when I was walking in my friends neighborhood by myself in the morning, communing with God, but never in the presence of other people. It was weird, seeing that no one else in the room saw the smoke but me, and it had no smell. I have no clue whatsoever to what it could've been, maybe a negative spirit leaving my body? Or god's unique way of letting me know that he's/she's/its inside of me?

what a weird thing. what color was the smoke? black?

[3DMonkey]

White? Wispy white?

[Crown]

Happened to me a few times... Its hardly even noticeable. To me atleast. Its like, everything is normal, suddenly an exhale of air through my nose produces vapor like matter.


I think its either a biological phenomena that could happen in certain circumstances allowing you to exhale hot air somehow. Or it could be an eye illusion... Or it could be a spirit a wisp or whatever. I think its not good to dwell in thoughts upon such things. Believe that its positive / negative, believe that you can balance it, and move on.

How much smoke was there? How long was it visible for?

[Wyze89]

It was like a small wisp of grayish transparent smoke that came out of my nose. It disintegrated as fast as it came up. = /

maybe you're a dragon

Perhaps it is similar to the silver flecks found by the L/L crew.

16.41 Questioner: Can you tell me of the silver flecks that we have found sometimes on our faces or elsewhere?
Ra: I am Ra. These of which you speak are a materialization of a subjectively oriented signpost indicating to one mind/body/spirit complex, and no other, a meaning of subjective nature.

16.42 Questioner: Who creates these silver flecks?
Ra: I am Ra. Picture, if you will, the increasing potential for learn/teaching. At some point a sign will be given indicating the appropriateness or importance of that learn/teaching. The entity itself, in cooperation with the inner planes, creates whatever signpost is most understandable or noticeable to it.

16.43 Questioner: I understand that we ourselves create this?
Ra: I am Ra. Entities consciously do not create these. The roots of mind complex, having touched in understanding, intelligent infinity, create them.

Since it seems to happen when you are in a spiritual state. Just a thought.

Sounds like Ra is saying "that's a deposit from the soap, but I'm not going to tell you that because you are creating your own reasons for what it might be, creating a signpost. That's the fun of the game".

(which might apply to the smoke too. Good find, abridgetoofar)

But it wasn't so cold in the church that your breath came out like smoke? just a side thought
I saw smoke coming out of the sleeve of a priest in a church once, when he raised his arms to bless the community. It was black smoke. And the priest looked like he had been out boozing the night before, totally wasted.

I like the perspective, but if this were the case, would Ra have suggested it were a signpost to begin with? Had Don asked "Are the silver flakes a signpost," I could see Ra allowing that distortion, but when asked outright "What are the silver flakes," it doesn't seem to me like Ra would suggest they were anything more than they literally were.

Of course maybe the crew had hypothesized about the flakes before-hand and Ra was acknowledging this unseen theory. Sometimes I feel like there are some pieces of the Ra material which are in context to the trio that we don't fully grasp.

[3DMonkey]

Maybe not. But I think that is what Ra was all about.

If Ra were a separate being, beaming down information, you might be right. I don't think that is what/who Ra is.

(I go back to the fifth density being. All that higher beingness and all he could muster up was a spider bite.)

[Bring4th_Austin]

I just don't think I'll ever understand your deal with that spider bite! :p

I understand your view of the material Monkey. Maybe someday (in a different, more relevant thread)I'll understand how the spider bite scenario affects that view.

Maybe not. But I think that is what Ra was all about.

The *clock clock* is new to me. We used to just blow pressure in mouth and it works. .... (I thought it was residual cigarette smoke for a month or so. lol. kids.)
