My path to the Law of One + Part 3 on Jesus

[Boxer Fan]

Thank you for your incredible story Boxer Fan. I can answer your questions based on my studies and experiences, which although limited, are a sincere and humble opinion that I offer and it's your free choice to accept what resonates with you and discard what doesn't.

Holdover from years ago: where/who is the Holy Spirit? My higher self? The Creator?

I have been studying manifestations of what is called the Holy Spirit in evangelical churches. This manifestation is about kundalini activity. At least in terms of what is experienced by adherents of such churches, Holy Spirit would be the kundalini energy.

How to integrate with Larry Dossey’s “one mind” connection? We’re all one with each other, so is it really that simple?

It's not simple. There are several paths to mysticism. In terms of requirements, my understanding is that it's necessary to clean and balance the chakras minimally, making the kundalini reach the brow chakra, called third eye in esoteric circles. When this occurs, the person enters a state of consciousness usually called samadhi, although it's still a contact with the one mind. There are several levels in terms of these mystical experiences. I'm not aware of Larry Dossey's work, but from the terminology it seems to me to refer to that.

Thanks, Infinite, for your thoughts on kundalini. At this point, that's a tad beyond me, but I did find a lot of details - and a warning - in Gary's book, A Concept Guide.
What I've seen and experienced myself in evangelical churches was quite tame in comparison to kundalini.

I'm still leaning in the direction that the Holy Spirit is really our Higher Self speaking. Not in dreams or meditation, but the speaking might actually be channeling the words of the speaker's Higher Self.
Speculation on my part!
PS: Channeling doesn't seem a likely explanation of glossolalia though.
