RE: Lessons from Mother Ayahuasca. Night 7: Seeking my shadow and finding God
Hmm, I guess it follows that if your shadow is not a place of fear or hate, that you wouldn't really access such dark places when you asked to be shown your shadows. To me, it resonates that you didn't harbor such awful energies inside you so, it ..... kinda make sense (as an indirect commentator) that this night was rather difficult to access for you? Reading this, though, I feel a kind of restless energy through your words, choo....
As for finding God, yeah, I can relate. I also grew up with family around me who were religious, specially my maternal grandmother, but I've also come to a place where I think religions can bring good and joy to people, because faith is a spiritual need. But I still dislike organized religions. They are a power structure and they often are corrupted and therefore, corrupting.
Another beautifully written article, choo :) I really love these, you know :)
I do believe that our thoughts create our reality and therefore dark thoughts can create individual "hells". There is isn't one place we are go, like organised religions would have you believe. I think this was the point of tonight, understanding that. I haven't created my own hell, so there was nothing for me to see. That said, our thoughts do go somewhere, so there are dark and evil places created by other people, but this was not for me to access. At least not tonight.
I love that you are loving these posts, Spidey. I got a lot of clarification out of writing this one, compared to just journalling it after the event. So your comment is the icing on the cake. Only one more left in this series. I'll try and write it before you take your steemit hiatus. Then I'll have to find some more ayahuasca/yagé ceremonies to attend.
