Question What does it mean to be alive?

With all thats happening around us it looks like we are in for a rough time.
I know I am an eternal soul and have walked this planet many times before , so I wonder why I am doing what I am doing to stay alive, I have made all sorts of plans to counteract TPTB.
I could just take the jab and die from the flu but something is holding me here. I want to be on the other side with my girl but I wonder if there is some special reason as to why I am here, I doubt it but I need to think there is a reason for me to carry on.
What does it mean to be alive?

To me it just feels like I am playing a game

Dont get me wrong I'm very happy with my life at the mo but if things get really bad why would I want to go through all that?

Maybe you volunteered to be here at this pivotal moment in the evolution of humanity, the earth and even the solar system. Maybe this planet is key to raising up the entire milky way and beyond. Maybe you're here to bring in the golden age by bringing forth light from your higher Self into the world at this time when it needs it.

We're at the end of an age, Kali Yuga, and you're seeing an outplay of the darkness of the age in our institutions... that being said, the light is being born and on inner levels the golden age is already being manifest. It is only a matter of time till the light reaches this density in the material realm and you will live on an A class planet where in a sense, heaven has come to earth... but making that happen is the fun we're here for! A cosmic opportunity, UNPRECEDENTED in the history of the universe for this planet, for creation, for you and me!? Perhaps... perhaps that's why we are here? I think so...

(((Swanny))) (er - I'm not normally a slobbery mummy-type)
The happiness you have brought us all in this small sphere is brilliant - imagine the happiness and positivity you've brought to those who've met you, those longing to meet you, and the poor folk like me still desperately resolving/resilvering our health whom you support..
Why are you here??? Thank goodness you are here - every day a daft or constructive comment, we really look forward to you being here.
Now I've gone OTT on't slobberings (as Ant would say)
Nitey-nite and sweet dreams

You have overcome your fear of death, now the lesson is to overcome the fear of living, even in the most challenging situations.

Yeah it's a game! A game of experience!
To experience life, to experience all the sights, sounds, tastes, and scents that go along with it. To experience all the good, and all the bad.
The end of THIS game is death, and to experience all that goes with it.
The next game starts with the next life and it continues over and over and over until
we reach the highest point of knowing, the pinnacle of life!

I don't know really, just my two cents. LOL

If you are here now it is because you chose to be here for the transition. Everything else is a distortion.

That's why I capitalized 'this', to mean only this one here and now.
I should've worded it a little better, LOL

You are here 'because' of your 'consiousness' AND your ability to CREATE.

You, all of you; ARE ' perfect' beings... perrrrfect DNA... repairable DNA...

And, They know it. that's why there are pharamaceuticals, that's why there
are SSRI's to numb you... Make you sick... Control your very thoughts....
For their personal Gain... Your every thought... How do you fight back....

With your consiousness... And, YOU are better than all of them... Stronger
mentally... physicallly... You can see through the matrix Now... That IS why
your a LIVE... And, They are REALLY ugly!!! How could THEY have kids.....
Even their kids are ugly... [puke;puke] " I'm sorry I couldn't help judging."

You know when You GOT EM, when they can't respond... YOU see through
the smoke & mirror's of the bull sheeet.

Trooly,

Yes I see your point, thanks.

And to clarify my post, when Tolle says die before you die, he means you overcome the ego while still in embodiment and realize there is no death.

You stay here, you're still you, but you just no longer operate under the illusion that you are totally separate from the source and other life, you remember your spiritual Self as an individualization of the infinite rather than completely separate from it.

Tolle claims that this has happened to him, and I agree that it has... it's not about losing your body, just your issues! So my point is, death is an illusion, and once we conquer the illusion, by overcoming our egos, there is no more death... even in this life.

When you overcome your ego, and then later consciously ascend at the end of your embodiment, you don't have to do this all over again, you ascend to a higher realm where you don't keep being born and forgetting and dieing again. You've earned your birth as a permanent spiritual being.

But from what I understand, you can send parts of yourself down to continue the adventure should you choose...

There is only one day for dying. All the others are for living and packing in as much life experience as possible. To be alive... one is always alive. To be embodied is a gift. It allows one the opportunity to spiritually advance and to develop compassion. I'm truly sorry for you loss and do not think I would fair well if my husband was not with me so truly I do understand. Yet, I have watched those around me who have lost someone be freed up to give their time to others who also need someone.

My mom lost my dad two years ago. She thought of her life ending because they were very close and living without him was a huge adjustment. Then she started going to the Senior Center and helping others her age. She brought one sick friend into her home and helped nurse her. She volunteered to read to children in the kindergarten class one morning a week. She drove another friend who couldn't drive around to the store and doctors. In the evenings she made rosaries for the poor in other countries and helped making food for the social hour after church on Sunday. Her motto was to keep busy and to help others. She is 84.

I truly hope I have the strength to carry on as she has - should I ever be faced with the same situation. We all have so much to give so the way I see it is to keep moving forward and giving while we can.

These are perfect questions.

Actually you probably know the answers already, but you need to refine your technique of getting in touch with the bit that knows them. The only method that I know how to do this is meditation.

Jeez man! You are so close to the "eureka" moment I can bloody feel it!

There is a reason soldier - you are on the A team. Time does not exist for her, waiting will not be a problem, she can cheer you on from the viewers gallery.

IMO you need to go through all this so you can:

a) gain valuable experience in your co-creator curriculum - and funny this - you are on an advanced course !

b) fulfill a contract that your higher-self agreed on before you got here to help with the special circumstances of the moment related to the Earths own planetary evolution.

I so wish you could realize how bloody marvelous you are!

It is staring at you in the face!

A..

Blessings !

Swanny, to BE the LIGHT in the darkness
for all those just awakening.
For those who need a helping hand to guide them through
the ensuing chaos/earth changes.

Be the example, be that what we really are,
Divine LIGHT. The others will follow when the
time is right for them.

Namaste,

Dont get me wrong I'm very happy with my life at the mo but if things get really bad why would I want to go through all that?
My take is:
We are here to live this life ..to experience..to learn, to grow, to forgive, to love. For me...I know what I was to learn this time around & Im not done here until I pass what i have learned to others. (mainly my children , but the more people i can help the better) This mission isn't complete yet...

Dont give up.. follow your heart, your intuition ..& you'll find your mission :-)

Love to all

ItS A GIFT TO THE SELF ..

being an individual


the good the bad and the ogly

breath in and breath out

absolute magic is this life

and most of the time a @loody mistery


that will most likely never end or be solved

We are multidimensional. We are as many channels on a radio, and this is the station we are tuned into right now.

We are here and alive simply because we are placing our focus on this "life"...but this life is nothing but creation, expression, expansiveness.

If we chose to be here now, during the shift, it is because it is something we truly want to experience. And it is getting pretty trippy!

Thx again for all your replies.
What got me thinking this was looking at a daddy long legs that had been stuck to the ceiling for 5 days, they don't live long and I thought what a waste of time just sticking there, then I thought my life seemed to be going nowhere with not a lot happening at the mo, which made me wonder why I am here

I think you lot seem to have more purpose to your lives I feel like I'm killing time

The main purpose of all life is to merge with God

Everything is naturally flowing back to the Source

You will eventually become God

Meaning your body mind senses soul emotions thoughts desires personality ego
Will all disappear like distant echo like mist before the sun
And what remains is God
Being Aware in Bliss


Life can be a picnic or a pilgrimage
It is your choice

Free will is a wonderful privilege
And you will be held accountable for exercising it and receive what you deserve

So you see you are not entirely in control of your circumstances
Still your choices have brought it into play

Godspeed

I would add to this, that we are not here to disappear into nothingness of God... God has room for your divine individuality within it's infinite consciousness.

I believe when you merge with your higher Self, you are merging with your unique divine blue print within the body of the infinite. You are bringing your own unique experiences and soul travels back to the blue print of who you really are. When you merge with your higher Self, you gain your true divine individuality and permanence in the mind of God.

I believe it is true in a sense we merge with God, however, I do not believe we disappear in the process.. in actuality, we really appear finally as the grand individual being we really are and join the universal community in the schoolroom of the infinite. That means there's still infinite adventures, challenges and realities for us to explore and conquer after we surrender our illusions of separation, we just become more in the process... and join the billions and billions and billions of others in the higher realms who have conquered their own illusions of separation, before eventually moving on to even higher realms and realities after that.. infinitely more.
