You wrote, "I invite you to consider reading the actual books...you may just find that to be the best way to 'figure out if you fit in,' since our forum is based on the Law of One books."
What I've read here in the forum of the concepts derived from the books does resonate - deeply - with me; however, I'm actually seeking others who have directly experienced spiritual reality through their own personal connections and have come to an understanding of these concepts through personal experience.
It seems probable to me that some - if not most - of the folks here recognized the concepts as ones they understood before they read the books; that the books simply confirmed and perhaps clarified their own understanding.
I choose not to read the books because while the reality described therein (what I've read so far) has many similarities to what I understand of my own spiritual reality, 1) there are also many differences, and 2) I'd rather continue to learn in the same way I have done so far, without the books.
I have no doubt that the reality described in the books is very real and true; I don't mean to imply - in any way - that the channelings are 'wrong' or the message somehow distorted. My own understanding is that in the infinity of All That Is there are many realities, some more similar than others. The similarities are what drew me here; what I seek is the sharing with folks who share this basic understanding of our similar realities. If it is not required that members adhere to the presentations in the books as the only way to understand spiritual reality, then I think I may have a place here regardless of whether or not I read the books.
I respect this forum and its members without reservation or condition. I do understand that what brought the folks here together is a mutual resonance with the descriptions and concepts presented in the LOO books, but I don't get the sense that this is a religious gathering where one must strictly adhere to the books as an authority above their own personal experiences..?
Argh. Again I'm not sure I've articulated my thoughts or feelings properly; sometimes writing can be frustrating. I do intend to stick around and read more of the posts, give myself some time here. I appreciate being welcomed here.
plur
You sound like me! haha
I personally have read very little of TLOO, I've read the quotes on the forum, I've read the chapter A Little Cosmology(i think that was it?) and the introduction
But as you said, it is a unification of concepts, I have just written a post on this thread about interpretations of it.Where you mention personal experiences, I would same mine are well, there is no quick way to sum them all up. Throughout 2007 it genuinely felt like I was on a different planet. It seems though unfortunately, although I know more now, my mind is no where near as free as it was. Giving limitations to things which in '07 where limitless.
A few months ago I watched the David Wilcock videos, you can find them very easily on Google video search. He brought up some things from '07 which I had written off as silly or wrong. I had become really distrusting in what I had found for various reasons, and now David Wilcock was giving them back to me with although he used different words and things, I was getting reapeatedly slapped with, "Yes it really was real."
However now, I'm feeling incresingly free and loved. This forum plays a big part in that. I am a bit of a forum monkey, and my favourite forum for metaphysical things was getting ever increasingly deserted. Or the discussions which where active contained zero content to me personally.
Then I found Bring4th links on L/L Research.
I suppose after writing such a cryptic post I should start thinking about making a wanderer story thread. I'll DRAFT one soon

I would be very interested in your story as you say it is of a more self realized nature, much as mine is.
Questions are what make forum threads. IMO
A question is proposed, and collectively, we mix our ideas on the subject to make an answer for that person, but through all of that everybody who reads would make an increased understanding of it themselves. Forums are good analogies for Oneness, in a certain respect.
I for one would love for thier to be thousands of question threads, weather they are noobish or not. Yes I am talking to you "observers". ANY question is certainly welcome in any forum, and in this one we are all really lucky to have some incredably knowledgeable people in this mix.
Here's to millions more threads for Bring4th!
Love and Light,
New found friend.
