Upon these words that you have written, alterlight :), I will post what have been revealed to me in meditation.
My name is Dawn and I chose an unusual script, lol. What I thought was so different, alien, and set apart from the norm of society and in some spiritual communities, is nothing but an ego attempt to block the truth. And since I was the one who made up the whole scenario, it seems fitting that I be the one to ask in help in removing the blocks to the awareness of Love's presence. A self, once thought of as individual, met Self.
Lately, I have been "stopping and quieting" my mental meanderings. I took it as a defense to prevent from being attacked by friends and family, not to be ridiculed for speaking of oneness, the mind, and how people think. Once I began to just be quiet and still (I was an ace at this in grade school, lol), I noticed the little self disappear and the oneness
I so wanted to talk about with others was experienced. There were no others.
This began to happen around my birthday (37 years old, now :). To be a writer became a calling in the dream. I dropped out of school and it was the most peaceful decision. I began to get ideas about opening up a cafe. I've had that idea for about 3 years, yet, around my birthday, there was peace with that idea. Meditating took place at the most unusual places and times, like watching Finding Nemo with my son, or observing people walk by while sitting in a cafe writing notes in my journal or reading a book. It was spontaneous.
So I surrendered to this. I would begin to study ACIM by listening to a teachers workshop. I began to see ACIM principles in someone who knew nothing about ACIM. I began to forgive automatically those situations that irritated me in the past. I understood
true forgiveness had nothing to do with sacrifice. I began to listen to what people were saying and not fill in the conversation with what I only wanted to hear. My relationships are transforming. I truly do not know what anything is for. Yet, the one who knows is within me and is me, Self, One.
This is where the words get in the way. When I have tried to communicate this experience, there has been silence. I may be looking for agreement or an opportunity to argue a point or to defend myself. This is of the ego. It is I who does not understand the silence. Today, after reading your posts, it felt like an aspect of me, of what I had been thinking even before I began reading ACIM. Then, the idea of the universal experience that is spoken of in the Course I saw while in a meditative state.
The idea is oneness. Oneness of mind. One Mind. That is the universal
experience which goes beyond beliefs and individual thoughts of separation. Many paths lead to this, yet there is only one goal, one purpose that has already been accomplished.
The idea of a universal experience, One Mind, came as a question. Is this true? The ego does answer first, lol. I got the doubts, the fears, the "dont say anything stupid" thoughts, etc. It is the fear of letting go, part of the same belief in separation, part of believing that this, thinking this, will kill me. One problem, one solution...there is no problem, it is a dream.
I have been waiting to post something to your group. I didnt know what to say...until now :). I had been talking to some atheists on message boards lately. It was there that I saw atheists and Christian having the same idea and neither side knew it. I lovingly and peacefully stated my idea. I could feel the
thoughts coming up like little points of energy. Then, today, the idea of oneness as the universal experience was revealed so that I could see it.
This idea is not mine. There are no hidden thoughts, secret thoughts, etc. It is something the Sons of God share in oneness :). As I believe that I am in this body, typing this email, this is how I use this form to express love, nonjudgmental and unconditionally. Practice makes perfect and mistakes will be made. That is what forgiveness is for. It has already been finished and done.
Thank you for being :).
Namaste,
Dawn

December 15, 2005 marks the beginning of a series of posts. Included
will be posts posted elsewhere but not here, posts previously posted
here, entirely new posts, and whatever else seems relevant. Generally,
posts by altarlight are items received in meditation. They are nothing
but words, and yet some find them assistive in stepping past blocks
and barriers. All are open to agreement and disagreement,
participation and nonparticipation...and more particularly, it is
hoped they will stimulate the willingness to jump into 24-7 meditation
upon each member's own reality of self as spirit, and posting their
own views and ideas according to that, rather than posts about what
many other authors have written (except commentaries about posts of
members to this list). When members can truly say, "I understand"
because I find recognition welling up from within my own self...then
this list will have served its purpose, which up to now has only been
a very limited service. - altarlight
