The Mysteries of Spirituality
When I was first introduced to meditation years ago it was quite a scary experience. People were scared of me and thought it was weird but I believe, just like the De Lai Lama and Russell Brand, it is now acceptable. People are becoming more aware of their spirit and how it is important to living a healthy and balanced life, because you know something they don't. You're met with stupidity by those who are afraid of knowledge or change. Some people are biased and unwelcoming to the fact that you are studying something they already understand and would rather that you were still an ignorant human being with the social conditioning of an ape. As a race, we are afraid of what we do not understand and I believe a mind is a terrible thing to waste. That's why I would train in meditation on my own, sometimes for hours. Now I'm going to show you some signs that show your body is trying to communicate to you and that your spirit is trying to connect with you. See if any of these hold any truth for you.
Sleep Patterns
It can be said that a change in sleep patterns, restlessness, hot feet, waking up two or three times a night are the calling cards of spirituality trying to communicate with your being. Feeling tired after you wake up and often sleepy during the day are recurring signs that your body is evolving. Usually these types of ailments are attributed to illnesses and diseases, and can be confused for them. There is something called the Triad sleep pattern that occurs for many: you sleep for about 2-3 hours, wake again, and go back to sleep again. For others, sleep requirements have changed. You can get by on less sleep.
Lately I have changed. I have been experiencing huge waves of energy running into my body from the crown. It feels good, but it keeps me awake for a long time, then subsides. I am getting used to it and I've made peace with it. I don't worry about getting less sleep and you can too. You will be able to make it through the day if you hold thoughts of getting just what you need. You can also request your higher self to give you a break, and, now and then, to give you a good, deep night's sleep. If you can't go back to sleep right away, use the waking moments to meditate, read poetry, write in your journal or look at the moon. Your body will adjust to the new pattern.
Activity at the Crown of the Head
From my experience, the Chakras are really misunderstood by many. They believe that only those who chant mantra can achieve this state of Nirvana. This is not always the case. It really depends on the focused concentration of the individual. Tingling, itching, prickly, crawling sensations along the scalp and/or down the spine. A sense of energy vibrating on top of the head, as if energy is erupting from the head in a shower. The sensation of energy pouring in through the crown.
From a young age, I've felt that we were being guided by unseen forces, sometimes for good and sometimes for evil. It isn't necessarily an idea that all is as plain as everyone believes: that sometimes, your choices are simply in the grey region where you flow continuously following a stream that keeps you in the Central focus of your life. These sprinkles of energy which are almost experienced as pressure on the crown. In the past, I have felt more generalised pressure, as if my head is in a gentle thought process that has been experiencing huge downloads of energy through the crown. One man related that his hair stood on end and his body was covered with goosebumps. This is nothing to be alarmed about. What you are experiencing is an opening up to receive divine energy.
Sudden waves of emotion
I get this a lot. I'm mostly quiet and calm but, if I am very connected with the universe, I can feel the anger or the joy of the stars around us. Crying at the drop of a hat. Feeling suddenly angry or sad with little provocation, then inexplicably depressed. Then very happy. An emotional roller coaster. There is often a pressure or sense of emotions congested in the heart chakra (in the middle of the chest). This is not to be confused with the heart, which is located to the left of the chakra. I can say that this connection is a very real experience and it's something that can only be explained as the connections of the ancient human condition trying to break through and show you how your brain used to function. Accept your feelings as they come up and let them go. Go directly to your heart chakra and feel the emotion. Expand it outwards to your heart chakra and feel the emotion. Expand it outwards to all your fields and breathe deeply from the belly all the way up to your upper chest. Just feel the feeling and let it evaporate on its own. Don't direct the emotions at anyone. You are cleaning out your past. If you want some help with this, say out loud that you intend to release all these old issues and ask your Higher Power to help you.
Old stuff seems to be coming up, as described above, and the people with whom you need to work it out (or their clones of the problems are unresolved) appear in your life which creates completion issues, or perhaps issues of self worth, abundance, creativity or addictions. The resources or people you need to help you move through these issues start to appear. Additionally, don't get too involved in analysing these issues. Examining them too much will simply cycle you back through them over again at deeper and deeper levels. Get professional help if you need to and walk through it.
Changes in weight are an indication that you are freeing up emotions and painful memories, and they need to feel a great sense of closure and usually, when you can't feel pain anymore, when you think about them, your spirit has made peace with those events in your heart. Always release this energy. Use meditation, long walks, venture to places you have never been to before- visiting new places always cleanses the body and mind. The weight gain is a change in consciousness is due to fears surfacing in your body to be healed. We create a bulk against increasing frequencies in our bodies. Changes in eating habits are necessary for your healing process so follow your feelings on what to eat- always listen to your inner voice as to what the body needs. You find you are not as hungry as you used to be or you feel hungrier.
Food intolerance or strange allergies will arise as you are becoming more in touch with your other lives where those foods were not discovered or created in that time period. The application of the senses will amplify, you will hear noises and voices of the past, friends long gone in your lives they still exist but not on your plain anymore but your emotions will strengthen and you will feel other spirits and peoples thoughts and feelings.
A sight beyond sight, this means you will gain a strong sight that will enable you to see what you need in order to stay on a path you will have episodes of blurry vision,shimmering objects, seeing glittery particles, auras around people, plants, animals, and objects. Your hearing and enhanced senses of smell touch and taste and skin changes. Episodes of intense energy which make you want to leap out of bed and into action,
All I can say is, is any of these symptoms have occurred to you, then I believe your body is trying to show you it is ready to take this journey with you. Remember, as human beings, there is nothing wrong with expanding your mind and your consciousness.
