Hi All

After years (perhaps about 10) of 11:11 and 12:12 and 2:22, I really freaked out today as I realised soon we'll have 11:11, 11.11.11... Anyway, I am very far from a spiritual way of life, honestly I stopped believing or should I say trusting it all... so many people claiming to be Thee link to other existences, often making rivers of money in the process... sorry to me doesn't sound right!

Anyway, it was very good to know that I am not the only one experiencing this phenomena and I do have an open mind so I will keep a look on the explanations and experiences shared...

Dear Silvia,

Welcome. We certainly have not managed to figure out how to make rivers of money, perhaps we need your help? This outreach is a bit like a hole in the ground. Money goes in. It does not ever seem to come out though.

love,
Geoff

Dear Geof,

Let me tell you a bit of my background and perhaps you will understand my bitterness or scepticism. 10 years ago I embarked on some kind of spiritual journey, no need for details, sufice to say that I was an avid yoga practitioner, reiki master, crystal healer, etc. I searched for my "guru" and this never came. Life circumstances took me into a very deep depression, and during that time all so called light healers only took money from me...

When I recovered, I moved away from it all... last year certain things started re-occurring, and I put it in the "to refer to" shelf of my mind...

Now I came accross the 11:11 community, if I may call it that... I really want to believe it all, or let me re-phrase, I do believe now that the 11:11, 12:12, 2:22 are prompts... I trust that my angels and spirit guides are with me at all times, I have alwyas trusted it... however, after so much deceipt I now want / need to hear from the source... I want to experience it first hand...

I hope you understand and if I sounded harsh in anyway I do deeply apologise

Silvia

Dear Silva,

I believe going to the Source for guidance and encouragement is the very best way to approach spirituality. We all feel we have the right of it as far as walking the spiritual path. In actual fact, perhaps, it may simply be the right path for us. The right path for others might be something totally different as is evident to me in the many different spiritual backgrounds of members of this board. So what you say makes complete sense to me. :)
You sound as if you have had a rough ten years and I hope there is light now in your life. Despite the difficulties you have faced, I have faced, all of us in some way have faced, if we can try to look objectively for the positive things we have learned along the way sometimes...sometimes... it is a comfort and helps deal with the scars and the eventual letting go.
From my own experience... I have had a rough time connecting with my mother over the years. I love her and she loves me but it always felt like there was a wall between us preventing us from openness and closeness. For the life of me I couldn't figure it out. But then I started actively working on issues I have accumulated within during my lifetime...just me and my guides and my/our beloved Source. At that time I was actually asking for help in seeing what was preventing my connectiveness with my angels and guides and was completely shocked when in meditation I found the answer to my problem with my mother. It was my feelings...the resentment I was harboring as a twelve year old girl... I couldn't believe it was in there...I had no clue but when I felt it, saw it and looked at it from all sides, my mom's and my own, I understood and could let it go and allow the closeness I wanted to feel for her return as I released my childish resentment of her over a health issue that was life changing and totally out of her control.. I guess my point in this long drawn out story is that sometimes we harbor things that prevent healing. Sometimes we must do the internal work...allow the letting go...allow the forgiving etc... If we are unwilling in some way...inner healing cannot occur because our free will is of highest priority in the universe. I am not speaking directly to you Silva but in reality to myself as I have forgotten this and have allowed some difficult things to interfere too much in my inner life. Sometimes as we think about posts on the board, lessons for ourselves are presented as well. So I pray you understand my need to ramble for a time.

I hope you feel comfortable here and enjoy the friendly folk who make up this board. It is good to have you among us.
Love,
Sandy

Hi Silva! I understand how you must feel. I would always be skeptical about the "money" part of anything, especially spirituality. Trust your inner instinct and just follow your own path to love and understanding.

Love, Clare

Thank you for your messages. Sandy... thank you for the words that totally resonate with what I am going through right now... You are so right... let go is the key to so many things... let go and let be... nothing like inner serenity to open the doors to so many things, both spiritually and physical as well...

Will definitely be present here... and by the way my prompt seems to have changed to 4:44...

Dear Silvia,

Thank you for your explanation. You are far better off without any human guru, in my opinion. I know that certain backgrounds, notably hindu and eckankar (probably influenced by hindu) make a strong claim that we cannot get anywhere without a human guru. I don't believe it, although I certainly would always welcome the opportunity to share with folks that are really advanced, if indeed they are. Once you learn about the Indwelling Spirit, and how to make contact, you have the best guide that is ever possible. And, we try to teach folks that. And if you can't hear your Indwelling Spirit, there are enough really well trained advanced discarnate teachers to do the job.

Awesome if your prompt has changed.

love,
Geoff
