Knowing vs. Practicing

[missmarie]

I think your last sentence there pretty much summed up all I might say.

I understand the fears of the government and the way things are going in a publicized way. On the other hand, the planet is more filled with Light than it has been for thousands of years, so I think we can all afford a nice pat on the back. Lots to go, but we must forget our bravery for walking the path to reach here.

As for the "off-grid" thing, I would contend it would be more applicable to consider that in light of the intention. I'm sure the reason you want to do that isn't necessarily just because of your fears but also because of interest in the life-style. There is no wrong path, each situation in life may be seen for the service within.

the off-grid thing is for several reasons. after it dawned on me that my "reality" isnt what i thought it was, i had a shift in perspective. i dont care to consume more than i need for the sake of simply HAVING. if it serves no purpose, i dont want it. my ego doesnt really like this side of me, but deep down the truth is that i want peace and simplicity in my life. i want to wake up with the sunrise, not an alarm clock. i want my job to be working the land and harvesting the fruit of my labor, not working as a paper pusher for fiat currency that ends up getting taken away through inflation, fees and taxes. i love nature, and that is where i would like to "retire". with a few pet chickens and maybe some pygmy goats, too.

unfortunately, 3D manifestation takes some time and planning...

Ok, Hi Marie. Love to chat with you.

If you feel like you want to dump negativity, don't feel like a soldier. Soldier's take orders. There's a soldier in me too, but it responds to me, or those I really respect, but know what your values are before you define what it is you think you respect, which, for instance, in the military, is very fear-based and hierarchical.

Know your belief systems. A lot of people on here will testify that for a long time they sorted themselves out by living through the treachery of "living two lives" or "living in two worlds," where "the world of ideas, and the world of the conventional... clashed" (Plenum http://bring4th.org/forums/showthread.php?tid=4126 )

I've heard about all of this since '09, and only recently have I felt really good that what I've been learning was worth it. I'm glad you're here, and, at times, things will be strenuous to you, but rest assured, from experience, it's literally your brain adapting to the new light, new neural pathways being created to this concept that is being suppressed in nearly all areas of mainstream society. That's why personal intuition and discernment are highly encouraged here. Ra and Q'uo always say, whatever doesn't resonate with you, let roll off your back like water off a duck... or something along those lines.

I'd be glad to talk with you more personally or in-depth, if you so desire, on this thread or PM. All's well. Welcome to Bring4th.

hihi!

yes, i agree with everything you said. i DO feel i'm living in two worlds! however, i also know that i still have some realizations to come to before i can let it pass. i always feel there is always more self-improvements that can be made and perspectives to consider, realizations to have. its challenging to be in this spot, but i know it will get better with time, and listening to "the sons of the Law of One" podcast helps too.

and also, THIS (if true, would be absolutely amazzzzzing)!:

hi all!

first post! really excited to find a forum where i can find information and also ask questions.

i feel like i've been obsessed with finding out as much spiritual information as possible. i am at a point where i know what i need to do based on the information i've gathered. my problem is, even though i KNOW quite a bit for someone who just woke up a year ago, i still feel frustrated that i cannot seem to break completely free of fear. i understand MANY crazy things are happening in our world, and i even understand why. but i still feel very alone and nervous even though i know, in the end, a better world is possible and coming.

are there any easy techniques that you know of, or inspirational things i could read that may help?

thanks very much!

I recognise what you described and for me it was a significant phase I went through. Only time will mend it, you planned for yourself to go through this stage of awakening at this specific time.

Be alert and listen to your intuition, you will work it out for yourself. Imo it is simply the integration of all you have learnt into your being. The old you won't leave without a fight. There are dark times leading up to the light, it is only natural and once it is over with you will feel better.

Oh also nice choice in music, keep listening to Maynard he almost does the work for you. Have a listen to the bands Karnivool and Floating Me. Both are very similar to tool.

it can feel overwhemling at times, but i think youre right. i have to be patient with myself and work through it naturally.

i was lucky enough to snag a ticket to see a perfect circle kind of last minute (last show of their last tour). funny thing that ended up happening - someone from front row didn't show up, and the security guy was kind enough to give me an upgrade to front row. PLUS billy howerdell came over and gave me his guitar pick. *SWOON* best concert of my life... and i went by myself.

i'm going to check out those bands on spotify. thanks for the suggestion! i
