The Rapture...Entering the Spirit

I have a story to tell. It's the story of eternal life. It's the story of how we will experience the transitioning into the spirit, what type of awareness we'll have after entering that state, and how & why it is not only possible, but that it is the ultimate hopeful destiny of all physical lifeforms.

By some translated versions of biblical prophesy, the spiritual transitioning event which christians call 'the rapture' will occur in the near future. And I agree. But even though I'll make reference to some biblical things, thiis story of life has nothing to do with religion. Arguably theology, but definitely not religion.

I'm submitting this in a religious forum because anyone searching for the truth of life would probably check out this arena of cites. I realize that most religious forum frequenters are here only to bolster or argue their own beliefs. If you are one of these, then it would be a waste of your time to try to understand what I have to relate right now...but I'm sure you will learn it in due time.

You have to have an open mind to be able to absorb this information because I'm going to paint a different picture of how this life works than you probably have ever heard. I had never heard of what I'm about to tell you before my quest began. And I would never have started my own quest for the truth of life had I not 'stumbled' into the spirit one evening.

My spiritual experience lasted about five hours. The knowledge I gained was only what I felt within the spirit. My summation of this story of life was derived from the knowledge/experience of others.

There are four main aspects that I experienced in the spiritual state:

1. Total, 100% release/ total relaxation

2. Total, 100% POWER...no resistance in the manipulation of physical objects

3. 100% pure awareness

4. In perfect synchronization with the moment of time

This is not a fairytale. It sounds like magic. It is. But it's probably only part of what the spirit (my spirit, your spirit, everyone's spirit) is capable. It's the state, I believe, that Jesus of the christian bible went into to be able to perform the miracles written of him.

First I'll explain what it 'feels' like to enter and be in the spiritual state; second, how we are residing within the physical body; third, how the physical is manifested; and finally, show how all the pieces fit together in harmony dictating a purpose to this great evolutionary process we call physical life.

It took about a second to go from my normal awareness to full spiritual awareness. In that transitional time I experienced the feeling/ knowledge of dying. I had released my body. It happened so quickly and completely that I had no fear of death even though I had full awareness of what was occuring.

I expanded. I expanded into a volumetric shape and size of an egg about ten foot high and six feet in diameter. In the expansion, my body rose up with me (it had started to drop the moment of release). I was free of it, but it somehow stayed in perfect harmony with me. I felt myself occupying the full volume of the eggshape but had only control of the atomic motion of the elements of my body.

The feeling was what you might imagine if you break the physical down to the atomic structure scientists theorize all matter is made of (electrons flying around nuclei), atoms spinning at the speed of light. I did not feel that I was the trillions of spinning particles enveloped within my spirit, but that I was the space between all of the particles. It made my body feel dynamically fluid.

I was occupying and felt physical atomic movement in the whole egg. In that, I was not only feeling the atomic 'buzz' of the molecules through my body, but also of the atmosphere and any object within my eggshaped spirit. It made me feel porous. Solid objects felt just as porous. So porous, that as I reached to touch something I expected my hand to pass right through it...but of course it didn't. The laws of physics seemed to be still in force.

The first aspect, 100% release/ relaxation, is impossible to empathize with. When I say it is death, I mean exactly that. Total release. No one has understood what Jesus actually meant when he said 'Ye must be born again'. This is the rebirth he was talking about.

If you imagine yourself floating totally limp in a swimming pool or maybe floating in the clouds, you still won't come anywhere near imagining the perfect peace that is experienced in the spirit.

The second aspect I found of spiritual life is POWER. ABSOLUTE POWER. The power I'm talking about is the power to move physical objects. Physical objects within the spirit are felt just as the body is felt...atomic motion. The spirit flows through them the same. I continuously felt all atomic motion, whether it was my body, the atmosphere, or objects, throughout my whole egg-shaped spirit.

Solid objects feel as porous as the atmosphere, and can be manipulated easier than blinking an eye. Running, jumping, manipulating objects, etc. take no energy. No physical energy. Zero. That's one of the magical attributes of the spirit, total relaxation and total power coexisting in the same state.

The third aspect I found of spiritual life is pure awareness. The change from normal physical awareness into pure awareness is like waking up. I would say my awareness of the world became 100 times more acute than normal. It's as if I 'knew every leaf on every tree', continuously. I was totally aware of everything I sensed, whether by sight, sound, or touch.

The last major aspect I found of spiritual life is that I became in syncronization with the moment of time. The totally released feeling combined with the atomic motion that comprised my whole spirit made me feel like I was being wafted along. Wafted in the direction of the future. I was locked within the flow-of-time's grasp. (The way no objects had any weight to them plus the knowledge my awareness was always in the present as it flowed, first made me believe this physical life was an infinite number of planes (two-dimensionalities) with the third dimension created by the flow of time.)

So, what physically happens when one enters the spirit? What is the key to that doorway? Why is this spiritual state also the state of eternal life? By prophesy and logically, who will be ready when that great event occurs?

Entering the spirit, by definition, should be the easiest thing we could ever do. All we have to do is let go. But our complicated brainwave patterns are what has thrown the monkey wrench into the works. In fact, that is exactly the way we hang onto our bodies...by employing the thought process.

The thinking portion of our brains consists of billions of individual cells vibrating at varying frequencies. They each have one input and one output. Every brain cell actually makes a loop out into our bodies. Each takes an input from a nerve and outputs to a neighboring muscle fiber or trigger mechanism. Our thoughts, our fears, our anticipations, our regrets; they're all part of the conglomerated set of brainwaves we're using to hang onto our physical bodies.

The all admired thought process. The use of it is what makes humans great. But alas, it's what's keeping us from the spirit. It must be released to enter the spirit. Releasing the thought process and releasing the body are synonimous.

Using the thought process to control the body has always been a losing battle...bodily death. No one has ever overcome that obstacle. And no one ever will by staying in the physical. We make the body convert food energy into usable energy for itself by chemical reaction not dissimilar to burning, rotting, and rusting. It's deterioration. It's killing us.

Using the thought process is also what's giving us our aches and pains. Anything felt throughout the body is processed and experienced in the brain. It may feel like an aching muscle, but you can release that portion of intensity of the brain that's controlling it and the ache will disappear. Some are so adept at this exercise that they don't require anesthesia for surgeries.

In the spirit the thought process is not used. And without thought there is no doubting. The conclusion is, if the spirit is capable of all things, that this is the place that 'miracles' reside.

We are eggshaped luminous spiritual beings enveloped within a sea of spirituality. We are bubbles of spiritual energy. Those that have gained the ability to see spiritually describe us as filled with colorful filaments of light. And all of the space that spiritual beings are not occupying is also filled with spiritual energy....god? I call it 'the total spirit'. I'll elaborate later why it should not be called 'god'.

Those that see spiritually say that we have another eggshaped bubble within our individual spirits which is isolated from the rest of our spirit in the same manner as we are isolated from 'the total spirit'. This bubble of energy is seen differently than the rest of the spirit in that the energy lines are glowing bright, whereas the rest of the spirit's energies appear dull in comparison. Some refer to this bubble as our 'assemblage point' because that's where we assemble our awareness. I think of it as the place in which we are cowering, instead of opening up to 'the total spirit'. Our 'assemblage points' appear to be approximately one foot in height and six inches in diameter (about one hundredth of the volume of our full spirits).

Our spirits do not have visible shells. Neither do our 'assemblage points'. The reason the outer limit to our spirits is seen is due to the fact that we are not spiritually linked to 'the total spirit' (we haven't 'given our life to god?). But the 'assemblage point' works differently. Its energy lines not only are glowing brightly, they extend outward and link to the energy within our full spirit, and continue out of our spirits, linking to 'the total spirit'. Through 'the total spirit' they extend to link with each other. Through these spiritual lines we interact/communicate while each of our spirits manifest themselves into the physical..

So, if we're only bubbles of spiritual energy, what's with this single three-dimensional universe we all appear to be living in?

That is the power of our individual spirits. It is a continuous manifestation...changing spiritual energy into physical energy. The spiritual energy is our own being, and the world we are each manifesting only extends to our outer shells. It manifests our own bodies, the immediate atmosphere, and all objects within our spirits. When we are in contact with others, their bodies/clothes/etc. are only manifestations of our own spirits. What appears more than three foot or so away from us is only 'painted' on our shells. The knowledge, wisdom, and power to do it comes from 'the total spirit' to which our 'assemblage point' is linked.

So, what is the goal of this evolutionary process we call life? To evolve into intelligent enough beings to be able to understand that eternal spiritual life awaits us, and then to enter into it. The human race is at the door of this great spiritual crossroads. We are not the first. Nor will there ever be a last. Collectively, we support billions of lifeforms which are on this same evolutionary quest. Some will take millions, some billions, and some trillions of years to evolve to the doorway that our species has finally reached.

By prophesy (an interpretation I've heard of the Bible: Revelations) there will be three waves of events for transcending into the spirit. It says that in the first wave only a hundred and forty four thousand will be ready. A few years later one half of those will come back to show the way to everyone else. Only half the world will join in the second wave. And the rest, if still alive, will have a third chance sometime later.

What I have just given you is the very basics. But a few topics I need to expound upon. The first is the event christians call 'the rapture'. They say that a personage who historicly lived two thousand years ago named Jesus of Nazareth is coming here to get the event started. Is that absurd notion remotely possible, knowing the way this spiritual/physical life works???

Yes, it is. Jesus evidently could enter the spirit almost at will. All of the 'miracles' writen of him dictate it. Although there were two times I believe he could not. Once was when he went into the mountains alone for forty days to meditate. The other was on the cross as he cried "my god, my god, why hast thou forsaken me?". I believe he expected to enter the spirit, come down from the cross, and show them the power of the spirit.

But I do not believe he died on the cross. I believe his rich uncle Joseph bought his body from the guards and nursed him back to health. He could have then entered the spirit to stay manifesting his own world/s, awaiting our readiness.

There are a billion christians in the world today. Most of them think that they'll be whisked up in 'the rapture', even though their prophesy says that only one hundred and forty four thousand will be ready. Something must be amiss.

It sure is. It is the idea that there is a god out there. A fear that giving up the belief in 'him' will earn torment in a fiery place for ever and ever. But the logic of what is required to enter the spirit should make us understand that believing in a god is useless. To enter the spirit is to release the thought process. That means we must also give up any and all beliefs we have because they are nothing but thoughts. And they are keeping us FROM the spirit.

I was riding my snowmobile when I entered the spirit. After spending a few minutes of elated joy and wonderment of the spiritual state I had found, I hopped back on the snowmobile and continued to my sister's place where I was headed. Upon meeting them, I discovered a significant aspect of flowing with the moment of time. The words/sentences they spoke were but garbled noise to my ears. I did not have the ability to fomulate the noise into words.

So, what is the formula for entering the spirit? Since striving for the spirit (having it as a goal) is an impossibilty (it is the ultimate 'catch-22'), we're going to need some help. But first we have to prepare ourselves.

If you believe that someone is just going to 'whisk' you up and away you've got another think coming. Entering the spirit (releasing the body, passing through the doorway of death) is the most personal thing you'll ever do. No one can help you make that transition.

I believe transcendental meditation (TM) is the key. By practicing the pathway to release we can come very close to that transition. When I come to that point in meditation where I've released the goal (because the goal is a thought) and have no idea what I'm doing, I'm floating so close the that doorway of death that it 'bout scares the hell out of me (because I've also dropped the knowledge that spiritual life awaits me if I go there). I believe that is the feeling we all must learn and become familiar with.

As I've learned, meditation alone is not enough. But if we see and hear the event of loud trumpets in the air and a man riding a great white horse in the sky? To experience that should be so utterly astonishing that if we know how to release, we'll be able to.

A final word on 'the total spirit'. Does it have awareness? I believe it does. Otherwise, why would we have existence in the first place? Does it have emotions such as jealosy (thou shalt have no other gods before me)? Of course not. Emotions are a product of the physical brain and the thought process. Judgement is also a thought process. Is it aware of all we do? Of course. The total ability we have to manifest this life comes completely through linking ourselves to it and through it to others. So it experiences everything we do.

It's too bad we're keeping 99% of our spiritual selves from linking to it. As the christian bible teaches, 'Give your life to God' to gain eternal life, expanding the 'assemblage point' to our full spirits, becoming 100% linked to it, giving up this life as we know it, is the pathway Jesus tried to teach.

I never frequent these religious forums, but I'll stick around a few days to answer questions. I won't debate religion. I don't expect you to totally understand or even believe what I have written. But it should intrigue you enough to go to your local library and dig through its info. That's what I did. As I said, all I learned through my spiritual evening was only what I experienced. Those aspects you can trust me as fact.
