I was moved by the 'What are we afraid of?' film, especially the last speaker, though I don't know who he is.
I had an experience about 2 weeks ago I have never had. I woke in bed worrying...fearful....disconnected. and I started to pray to God, the universe, my innner being, my higher power....'anybody' that would hear me.I soon felt that I was being heard,that I WAS communicating and soon after I felt I was being given 'raidrops' of understanding, communication, gifts.....just a little at a time. Then It was so "LIGHT", like mountain air or weightlessness or LOVE.
I realized my pillow was wet and I was crying...it felt so good, exilerating actually.
I got up, enthused and went downstairs to try to keep the feeling and discovered I was sitting in a pose similar to a yoga position, sorta cross legged with my hands turned upwards on my kness. I Was trying to expose as much of my body to let the 'LIGHT' in. I FELT indescribable peace...and ...NO FEAR.It really was an incedible experience and I didn't want it to end, and it was real!I kept saying."THAT is what they're talking about', meaning the wisom of those who speak of God or Love or peace of the universe or heaven. It was Nirvana to me. The next morning 90% of it was gone.I want to go there again, And if it never happens again I am still thankful, for it gave me SOMETHING.
I THINK THE SOMETHING THE LAST SPEAKER SPOKE OF. I'm not as fearful, I am seeing the fearful acts I do everyday. I see the selfish protecting actions I take.The destructive thoughts and harmful ways I extend to my body and mind. And how unnecesary it all is. If I could share this I would give it to the world, and it would be a better place.
Thank you for posting the film!
