"God" Must Be Real (Spirituality based on real experiences) * 2
    #26512792 - 03/02/20 12:40 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

Note: I understand this is an opinionated viewpoint on the mysticism of life, and that there's no proof on the uncanny synchronicities & insane physical spiritual experiences. Please, be respectful.

Personally, I was an atheist all my life. Obviously, there's no man in the clouds. Until I saw shit with my own two sober eyes.

Since I started opening my mind to the actual fact that absolutely anything is possible, I started seeing synchronicities, and really fuckin weird shit started happening to me.

Interactions with animals, that the Native Americans understood as "signs" from the forest, or "Gaia" as I, and others, like to name her.

Music put on shuffle talking about the same things that I & my friends are doing. 

Me being able to read people's lives to a T thru study of tarot & horoscope charts, genuinely spooking people and making other atheists also believe.

I don't believe in God, personally. I believe just on this planet alone, there's whole other sides to life that we can't even comprehend.

Take mycelium for example, it communicates to other plants, telling them which nutrients to pull from the ground to protect them from a disease that's spreading. They also pull nutrients from the ground, and give them to plants that need it. It seems silly to disbelieve that there's so

Absolute truth. javascript:void(0) We were made from Earth, as was everything else. Then there's whatever made Earth, the combination of elements hurling through space. It's all part of a single consciousness that is life.

I'd love to hear other's experiences that made them believe, or made them question everything.

Continue following the synchronicity and shit will get CRAZY

I went through a complete spiritual awakening with 3rd eye opening, full on hallucinations while totally sober and weird intense shit. I met a guy from the Shroomery in real life (Hi JoseLibrado if you are reading this by any chance) he turned out to be a kind of spiritual adept awakened being and every time I spent time with him, things got more intense and mind opening.. psychedelic. I wish I had time to tell the whole story but it's long and kind of complicated. We can talk more in PM if you want. Reality is so much more intense than we normally realize.

Might want to read these threads: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/21165476
and https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/9752324#9752324

Re-reading those threads, I could have explained it all much better but whatever, I'll have to re-tell the story one day in a more coherent way.

My awakening eventually led me to be put in a mental hospital and forced to take drugs. If I refused the drugs, they would hold me down and inject me and I couldn't leave until I was "normal". There is some force out there that doesn't want us to be spiritual awake - we become too powerful.

edit: and I definitely believed in God after all of it. But, like you said, not some dude in the clouds but some kind of force/principle/truth...

Thank you! And I started having vivid hallucinations while slightly stoned that helped put these pieces together. I still follow the synchronicities, whether it be numbers or events.

They landed me here in Nicaragua, on the beach, absolutely in paradise for completely free.

And also led me to find a job opportunity watching a millionares dog & doing his paper work for $1000 a week in the most hoppin part of Manhattan, NY.

Not just some coincidence.

Reading the first one, Native American's see strange encounters with skunks as a symbol of confidence: Quoted "It symbolizes the importance of being who you are and living authentically without caring about other people's opinions. When the skunk spirit animal appears to you, it's to help you build up your self-confidence."

Makes sense. I very much lacked confidence back then. And the skunks having a threesome in front of me I believe was the universe telling me "you're an animal too, just go out there and get some!" :lol:

Whether a person believes it or not there is in fact a war going on right now in this world and the ones surrounding it and you are smack dab in the middle of it.  It’s like capture the flag but the flag in this game is your head.

It’s not hard to see but it is easy to miss.  All it takes is just a slight shift in how you see things and it becomes in your face clear on what is going on here.  So, be mindful and don’t get caught unprepared for when the Boss shows up..:hatsoff:

The word 'belief' or "believe" do not express the simple, undeniable fact that 'Reality is Real.' Now, physical reality ranges from the sub-atomic to the expanding horizon of the universe - neither of which can be seen, heard, smelled, tasted, or felt. 'Believing' in atoms, for example, is an absurd assent of the mind. One does not physically perceive most of the forces at work in the universe yet physical reality operates lawfully. Most people are ignorant of equally invisible psychological forces that comprise the psyche.

The psyche itself may well be as ubiquitous in the universe as space-time. This means that psyche is not a mere emergent property of brains and nervous systems but instead nervous systems receive psyche like electronic devices receive all manner of signals. This alternative view suggests that animals (and to a lesser extent plants) are 'nodes' of space-time in which physics and psyche interface. We are, after all psychophysical beings partaking of both psyche and physics. This is not MY idea, it has been promulgated by Panpsychic and Panspiritual philosophers including the collaboration of the psychologist C.G. Jung and the physicist Wolfgang Pauli. Psyche cannot be quantified because it is NOT a physical substance or energy. The only way to discern psyche/mind/awareness/consciousness is from the inside out - subjectively. There is no objective instrumentation for detecting consciousness. We can test corresponding energizations in the brain but not consciousness itself.

One does not need to "believe" in Ultimate Reality. What is Ultimately Real is by definition Eternal. Eternity can no more be denied as Real than the mathematical concepts of Infinity. Even a child knows that beginning at zero, numerical sequence is Infinite. Whatever is Ultimately Real transcends the universe, it is ontologically prior to the universe. The universe is NOT eternal, nor is it infinite (it can't be one without the other.  Neither has to do with duration of time or extension in space. Eternity-Infinity is timeless and spaceless.

What people CAN "believe" or not "believe" is whether Ultimate Reality shares ANY quality that is human-like or humanly comprehensible. So, calling Ultimate Reality 'GOD' usually means that we attribute BEING to Ultimate Reality. But as far back as Plato GOD was deemed utterly incomprehensible which means that we cannot even attribute BEING to GOD. Only Eternity can be attributed to Ultimate Reality. Eternity is not even a quality of another 'thing' and so it is equally absurd to deny that Eternity is Real.

Bottom Line: It is absurd and meaningless to deny Ultimate Reality regardless of what one wants to call it. An atheist simple means that one is not (the prefacing letter 'a') a theist. Theism simply defines GOD as Supreme BEING. There are other descriptions besides theism: deism, pantheism, panentheism, monism, monotheism, and polytheism. Like the model of the atom, these are all models of Ultimate Reality. All of these terms involve the category of BEING, but to end here, as I suggested, Ultimate Reality is a Mystery. This does not preclude talking to It/Him/Her/They, praying, loving, worshipping, or otherwise regarding The Mystery as the basis for existence itself.

Literally the day after I read Eternal's posts, I have at least 3 synchronicities. From my dreams being real, to reading a post about creating National Shroom Day & a song coming on saying "Let's Trip Together". Having a serious "HOLY SHIT" kinda day.

This took many times reading for me to understand, but you are correct. Although, the post isn't regarding that. I'm trying to discuss experiences that are unexplainable other than there must be something outside of our feeble perception of the world controlling seemingly mundane things...
