LoJ:
Hello Jaymaestro. Thank you for your questions. I address them below. Please also do consider that this is not the best place to discuss such.

It is indeed possible to be translated to other planes consciously or unconsciously. As far as the spiritual plane is concerned, I told you I do not know. But I do know that I was once given a global view of the universe(s).


When I say the heart, I mean the spiritual antennae which every Human possess. Yes the antennae may not work properly due to the fact that most humans have abandonned it. But it still exists and must be revived.

No, it is not required that one should use books or be taught by another living human being. If that was the case, Humanity would be in great danger, for Books can be easily falsified and misunderstood, and Human teachers even when Holy, do err. Sometimes they even mistakenly claim to be messiahs and gods. And when genuine prophets of God do not err, Their followers usually distort their doctrines, and the resultant is, what would have been one perfect all encompassing truth, is now thousands of religions and religious movements.

No, Man is not self sustained. Still Man is a spirit. Therefore Books and human beings are not imperative for man's development. In addition how would someone who knows not how to read nor can hear, manage to find his way? Has God forgotten him? How should a man born in North Korea where there be almost no Bible, nor Bible preacher, no quoran and all that, manage to find his way?


Spirit helpers are just that, Spirit helpers.

Love thy neighbor is part of the Truth at the center of the Universe. One need no books to access to it. Only your heart. Of course a Book can be instrumental to some in finding the will of God, and I don't argue that. All I am saying is that it is not necessary, for even without a book one can find his way to ascent.

Besides, long before the Bible was written, the golden rule was already known, as a simple research on google can prove it to you.


There is a difference between training spiritual faculties and spiritual development. Just as there is a difference between training your muscles and being in good health. Both are not synonymous. And as you know, only training the muscles can be harmful.

There are all kinds of proposed spiritual exercises for people to open their soul sight, and become clairaudient. Some even achieve this within months. It is however my perception that it is wrong. Training faculties of the spiritual is like training to be a swimmer. No matter how trained a swimmer is, he shall never compete with a fish.

When one rather develops himself spiritually -which is the aim of our sojourn on earth - he gradually awakes his others bodies which naturally become adequate to navigate in other world. Thus he shall be at ease in the astral plane, just as the a fish is at ease in the ocean, and not just a unreliable and in danger swimmer.

Caution: Whatever I express is my personal opinion and experience. Feel free to examine it and reject it, if it does not resonate as true in your heart.
Cheers.

since, you have deemed this section inappropriate , although it seems close enough to me . In summary it's Man And Its universe. This will be the last response .

what kind of global view [is it on a universal scale but on the mundane plane or on the transcendent plane] ?

why `must it be revived ? There is enough conflict within each individual and outside on the mundane realm already.

Spirit helpers mean books or humans would still be required despite the inherent flaw in them , considering spirit helpers could be [books , humans , cosmic bodies or abstracts even nature]

Is Man is spirit the same as Man has an ethereal immaterial self ?

actually , where there is no access to books or certain disabilities , there will still be "spirit helpers" with sight alone ` You can observe and experience unnatural phenomenons

You do know , again , You can't be in good health without practicing certain norms , in which exercise is included .

However , I guess spiritual development encompasses all aspects of spirituality And attunes them with other self of Man while Spiritual exercises are selective .

thenny312:
but she still has powers abi

Yes , she does.

I dont understand ,lol .

thenny312:

LoJ:

I ain't sure this is the right thread to discuss such. But anyway, I'll go ahead and formulate an answer, albeit superficially.

There is no standard method for spiritual ascent. All the divisions and denominations you see on earth are reflected in the astral and ethereal planes. So there are as much tendencies/teachings in the astral and ethereal domains, as there are in the physical. I have never been (consciously) in the spiritual sphere, I don't know about that one. This does not mean Truth is relative. It only implies that our perception of truth even in the other material sphere is partial.

So if you expect me to show you the unique or best way to ascent, I'm obliged to decline. In my sensing, people should be allowed to examine and seek the Truth for themselves, and follow their heart wherever it leads to. Experience and Time usually show that our intuition/our heart is always right, and it is better to follow your heart than to blindly believe religious leaders, pastors, imams or religious books.

However at the very center of the universes there is the Truth which lifts every spirit and awakens us. Love thy neighbor and every other creature as or more than yourself. Keep the heart of your thoughts pure and filled with love. Contemplation and application of this truth, enlighten our being. Then spirit helpers can help us with or without human intervention, to find our path to God.

Last but not least, you seem to believe that spiritual faculties like soul sight and clairaudience are synonymous with spiritual development. This is not necessarily true. Most "prophets" and seers train those faculties without making any true spiritual ascent.

If you have other questions, feel free to ask them. But in a suitable thread or any other mean. I would be glad to offer my perceptions. These are just my experiencing and opinions. Feel free to examine them and reject them if it does not resonate as true within you.

Cheers.

consciously? plausibly, You have been unconsciously translated to a spiritual sphere ?
You mean following one's heart will create a path to the truth one need . The heart can be clouded with emotions .., and there is a need for a guide whether through books or other humans. Man is not self-sustaining . who are the spirit helpers ? How would you know ` Love thy neighbor and every other creature as or more than yourself` if via the bible , then we might have found a standard way for true spiritual ascent. when you mentioned train ` it made me wonder if you would rather practice to achieve or wait for instant translation to a spiritual ascent _ then again , what's true spiritual ascent?

thenny312:
yes o these pple.... .. I'm so loving vincent... Dat guy is badass... . Im starting to feel like he's more powerful Dan freya sef.... ... Altho hes d regent and all but freya is supposed to be indestructable...... She was tutored by a lunatic yet very powerful witch

thenny312:
I dnt trust dat girl..... . I see some sort of potential in her... ... Maybe she cud manage to get solo magic some how without their ancestors

Your inquiries just made me realise that too. Reminds me of Bonnie.

thenny312:

Hello Jaymaestro. There is no need for a discovery for something to be a possibility. a Possibility is just that, something possible. Second, it is not correct to assert there are no discoveries to envision the possibility of an extraterrestrial life. The number of planets similar to the earth that have been discovered is very great. I'm refering to planets which could have developed bio-organisms similar to those living on earth. Johnydon22 has described one of those in his thread.

So yes the probability that there be a form of life outside the earth is huge. Nonetheless, a probability or a possibility is not a fact.


I'm not sure here's the right place to discuss it, as we'd deviate from the scientific aspect. Suffice for me to say this:

Science is concerned with things of the (gross) material world. Things of the spiritual or things of the fine material world (Astral and ethereal planes for instance) are as of now, impossible for Science to investigate, and is therefore not authoritative in these domains. Still I'm confident that in the future, scientists will uncover new possibilities/ways to investigate the other dimensions of the material world.

In the meantime, each one of us has the potential to awake faculties of the spirit and therefore monitor the happening in those domains that are not yet accessible to science. So the question - How does one know that what he sees in the invisible (to the physicial eyes) dimensions are true and not products of his imagination? Simple. When spiritual/astral or ethereal events have repercussion on the physical, science can investigate if the claimed events actually took place.

For instance, if a prophet claims to have seen an angel stopping the sun for 24 hours, Science can't prove whether he actually saw the angel or not. However Science can well determine whether or not the Sun was in fact stopped for 24 hours at anytime.

Cheers.

But with discovery which involves testing and awareness –it debunks the situation , and affirm the possibilities . Even now, Scientists assume , statistical probabilities and other conjectures .., there is even the assumption of a chemical seed of life across the universe. But basing our expectations of life
existing on other planets, for no better reason that it exists here, is
really only proof that were are more than capable of deceiving ourselves.


anyways, Mr LoJ , Have you awakened it or ascended to a state of selfhood , if yes , How? [You stated you've had experiences]

LoJ:

Thank you for your kind answer.

Scientifically the probability that we are alone, is very small. However how another form on life may exist/manifest itself we can't fathom.

With regards to religion, I do not believe in religion, neither do not consider religion to be synonymous to spirituality. I know however there is God. And I know there are other living beings in the multiverses. I have seen and interacted with some of them. Even right here on earth, there are beings that most of us human beings can't see.

Nonetheless these are personal experiences and shouldn't in anyway be seen as proof or non proof of the existence of extraterrestrial beings.

Greetings.

There are no current scientific discoveries on the possibility of any form of life on other planets.

thus, Christianity shouldn't be seen as a religion cause it leads to a path of the the divine or spirituality of self through the holy spirit .How could you have interacted with other living beings from other worlds?[ I hope you aren't referring to ghosts] lol .. what beings[ the mythical beings from different cultures ] ?

hahha . I thought this was a flash/arrow`s thread . perhaps , I was wrong . anyways, brilliant episode . Loved Harry-Barry scenes .

LoJ:

Hello.

You are entitled to think whatever you want. But in your previous post, you said know. If you want your convictions/thoughts on physical issues to be accepted as Truth, then you have to present (scientific) evidence.

Since you just think, then it's ok. It is your right.

Greetings.

nice . However, It's still a thought. sincerely, it is still an opinion which is a subjective truth based on existential notions and experiences.so, do you think we are alone, and should your statements rest on religious or scientific grounds?

parrotibaba:
but but... Esther was resurrected after being destroyed by freya. This was long after the other side was destroyed. Where was her spirit then?

but but ... Esther became a new Orleans' witch , and their witches don't go to the other side , their essences become one with nature. so , You can resurrect witches rather than bring em back from the other side.

parrotibaba:
Then where was Klaus's biological father before he was brought back from the dead?

other side. Esther did make a statement about pulling him out of the other side before it collapsed.

Timothy3113:
how do witches now speak to dere ancestors,

witches of new Orleans practice ancestral magic. There the dead witches are consecrated to be channelled. However , witches can summon souls damned and sometimes , the un-damned , and speak to them.

LoJ:

You think or you know? There's a difference.

I think – believe it to be true until I see otherwise and what I have seen to be a global truth from the true source , then my thought will be affirmed .

LoJ:

How do you know we are alone?

Just as I wrote. I think the universe is for us and us alone , not aliens or other extraterrestrials as seen in movies lol .

Bought By Jonathan's Administration. Hahha . Users on Nairaland tho .

we are alone . The universe is God's solution to man's churning curiosity and insatiable desires cause it unfolds more the more we explore it.

Just stare and marvel .

soon , comic based series and movies will saturate the market , and we will be left with rehashed plots , plot devices and clichés be it Marvel or DC . However , I find dark comic movies intriguing and matured but boring – comics shouldn't be boring.

The originals characters know how to use their screen-time so well . Vincent was scintillating .
Love the post-mundus Camille .

Just internet issues with net based games which are actually very exciting .

still without a compass. lol

purplekayc:
yeah I do. week ends mostly

well, that's quite impressive.

^ Hahha . I wonder if Mista Purple gets to play all these games .Lol
