Hi All Thanks for accepting me into your group. I think/hope - TopicsExpress

Hi All Thanks for accepting me into your group. I think/hope most of you will find this interesting and meaningful: About six months ago, I started a practice of daily deep meditation. Soon, something strange began to happen to me: dead people started talking to me. At first, it was just names (which I was able to confirm) but then they began telling me their life stories (at least that’s what it feels like.) Words and images pop into my head, unbidden, sometimes with alarming clarity and they don’t let go until I write them down. After I’d filled half a notebook like this, I thought they made sense on a blog. Honestly, I cant know for sure if I am channeling Il Mondo Beyondo or if these stories are coming from some deep, heretofore untapped creative recess of my psyche. (Who knows? Perhaps they are one and the same! What is the Collective Unconscious, after all?) I can only speak of the experience: it FEELS as if Im taking dictation vs. writing my own thoughts. Generally I have no idea where the story is going. I’m surprised by each sentence as I write it. Sometimes, I’m completely shocked by the endings. Regardless of where they are originating (inside my head or out), they are interesting and poignant tales; deeply emotionally complex from many different narrators from various cultures who offer a lot of interesting insights. I invite you to have a look, and if you think they might be helpful, use them as you will – for inspiration, for teaching, for personal reading, for meditation. Acting students have even been using them as monologues! (If you want to know how the whole thing started and evolved, read from the very beginning.) The stories keep on coming, and the insights get more interesting. I’ve scheduled the blog to post every three days to give subscribers a chance to chew on each narrative for a while. If these stories resonate with you, please sign up to receive them via email so you dont miss any! Hope you enjoy.
