I must discipline my senses, follow my personal law to the letter and seek, seek, seek understanding. I just wished to let you fellow seekers and wanderers know about this point I have reached in case any of you feel the same. It tends to be comforting knowing that someone has experienced or is experiencing the same situation.
I was raised in a religious household. I walked away from religion when I was in my early 20s and walked a rather darkened path for another 20 years or so before I became truly spiritually aware. My awareness was not the result of anything I'd read or observed on an external basis. I do understand.
Fact is, this aspect of who I am and how I came to be spiritually aware nearly prompted me to relinquish my membership here at Bring4th, because I don't really fit in here - there are several sections in which I can't participate because the discussions are based on the LOO materials. What I discovered, however, is that there are sections here where I do feel I 'fit in', even though there are as many differences as there are similarities in the experiences and understandings shared. I'm not here to learn or discuss the LOO material; I'm here for the exchange of respectful personal experiences with others who identify with the general description of "wanderer", regardless of their origins or evolutionary path.
I see you haven't been here long, Clordio; perhaps you'll stick around (knowing now that you're not alone) and share your process with us in here in the Life on Planet Earth section and perhaps in the Olio section as well. The discussions in these sections have been, to me, quite wonderful.
