Dark Night Of The Soul #2

Posted on November 1, 2019May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

I was asked recently, once again, to speak about the coming shift and the collective dark night of the soul, and where we can look for support while we are personally in the process.

The dark night of the soul teaches us what doesn’t kill us will make us stronger. It is a time in which we start to realize we are not in control of our lives like we thought we were. It is possible during such a cycle, we might not have people around us who have had such an experience and can support and understand our process. Your higher self will send people or a person to you for your support if this is something you require.

Usually, at this time on our path, we are our own best company to keep. We know what adjustments need to happen within ourselves during this time and what issues need pondering, and we don’t need to be distracted from our work. As everything gets stripped away from us, we might feel like dying. It can also be a time of mourning for the death or diminishing of our ego-self, which will make room for the new us to emerge when we are ready.

Many around us, who do not understand what is happening to us, might feel uncomfortable about what is taking place. If you need others for support in the process, I would seek out spiritual people who are sincere and wise, and perhaps have gone through such a thing already.

Collectively, we are in a holding period at the moment, which makes it challenging to move forward, and it’s exhausting. There are astrological reasons for this, and also because of the larger cycle of the coming shift. During this time, our job as a lightworker, is to keep focused on our goals, even thou there seems to be no movement happening. It helps when we understand we are in a holding pattern and not to get frustrated or lose our hope when the motion is so slow. I have witnessed these holding patterns a few times before, as they are connected to possible windows for the shift to happen and for us to awaken into a new, higher-dimensional dream.

During similar times in the past, I witnessed the Earth deciding not to go forward with the shift, but to wait. She chose to delay the completion of this old dream for a few more years. The delay allows for more extreme lessons on the current 3-D teaching field. It also enabled lightworkers to ascend higher than the 5th Dimension, which was the initially planned density of the beginning of the new dream. Many don’t realize the delays from 26 years ago, evolved the lightworkers, beyond the density of the 5th dimension for the new dream. We have been at the precipice of the shift for 26 years now, and I have been watching the delays since then. This is also when I went through my third dark night of the soul, personally. During this time, memories arose of pervious dreams and shifts my being was involved in.

At this time, it appears the beginning of the new dream will happen in the 6th to 9th dimensions or densities. The veils between the teaching field and the other side will be very thin. Right now, thou, this current window feels different from the other windows we passed, by, so we shall see what happens with this window. All we can do is ride the wave and watch. None of us are alone or without challenges now. It helps to remember everything is alright, ultimately, and we are being guided and cared for through this very significant time.

Be gentle on yourself and others, and one day we will wake up in a very advanced, futuristic, peaceful world as the new teaching field.

What Spiritual Path Do I Follow?

Posted on July 13, 2019May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

I was recently asked “What version of a spiritual path do you follow”? Read my answer below.

I follow my MaRae’s version, who is my higher self or spirit self in the higher dimensions. It is her path and legacy I am participating in. I am merely her representative in human form. It is with great honor that I have come to know her and to know this is who I am in the higher dimensions. I follow her guidance and preferences in all things for I recognize this life is hers and so it is her spirituality I follow.

My spirituality is individual (as is the case for all of us) and comes from the highest of the Earth’s dimensions. I have memories of past lives on this earth as well as from other star systems. MaRae is part of a group of souls who have come to Earth on a mission and we will be soon leaving when the Earth school shifts into the next dream cycle for teaching. We are currently helping to prepare individuals for the coming shift, which is soon to come.

This was a good question because it brought forth an insightful answer that many can relate to as they have watched their own paths change over the years. What version of a spiritual path do you follow? Each of us has a unique tailor-made path because of the life our higher self designed for us.

If we are involved with the teachings from another being or for a time, it means there ia an attunement and vibrational alignment happening in the higher dimensions. Often times our higher self will use other’s teachings for us, as a stepping off point into new doorways, which will then take our being even further than the original teacher’s teachings. This is how we work together as a team to serve each other for the betterment of all.

How Awakening Changes Our Life

Posted on May 10, 2019May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

One’s life does change after a spiritual awakening. Each time one has a spiritual awakening their life changes. The perceptions we once had of reality no longer fit. All levels of awakening are different, so all levels of perceptions of reality will be different. But what ultimately happens is the dream which makes this third-dimensional existence seem real falls away. One sees the dream and knows it is only temporary and not reality. One understands the Oneness of the essence. One’s desires and attachments become diminished bringing peace and tranquility to our being. One looks away from finding any real security from the third dimension, but rather looks to their soul and higher self for their security.

The Hindu tradition has described the spiritual path of learning to become like the lotus flower which rises above the murky waters instead of living in the murky water. After awakenings take place, our being begins to live above the murky water of life. We become elevated from the mundane concerns of existence. We still have the mundane in our life but we are not as focused on it as we once were. We have gained broader perceptions of the whole of life. With this new knowledge comes new responsibilities to the knowledge. We are required to be of service to others in different ways.

There will be many changes to our being the deeper we go into awakening. Much of our strong personality will fall away. Many people will shun us as their being feels threatened by the level of our light. They may attack us in subtle and not so subtle ways. Many of us, on the awakening path, have gone or will go through the stripping–away process. which diminishes the ego. We might find ourselves without others around us who understand what is going on for us. The process of awakening for us can be challenging for the other beings around us.

There is a level of spiritual understanding which believes, we as human beings, manifest what is around us, rather than life being a very complicated, intricate system designed for us to awaken from the dream. Because of their ideas around manifestation, these souls, often judge the more advanced souls, whose life is being stripped away, as “less-than” for not being able to control their destiny and make things happen for themselves. When souls awaken beyond the stage of life being about manifestation, they begin to see life is not about controlling and fulfilling our desires, but rather about waking up from the long dark sleep we as humans find ourselves in.

Why We Incarnate

Posted on March 6, 2019May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

I was recently asked: “If we are higher beings in a temporary incarnation, why is it necessary to incarnate to learn lessons instead of learning them in our higher form?”

All 13 of the dimensions of the earth are part of this earth school. We always have the opportunity to learn and grow. There are some beings in service to this school, as some of the angelics, who have very few incarnations. On the other side, part of the focus is to be of service to others in all the various ways and to help those who have incarnated with their lessons. In order to be really good at helping those who have incarnated, we need to incarnate, so that we have a better understanding of what it is like to be limited by our physicality and by time and to deal with such things as emotions and karma. In the higher dimensions, we also take classes and study various subjects, but at some point, we need to put all our higher dimensional learning to the test by incarnating into physicality.

So we incarnate to test ourselves… we need the denser, 3-D to grow because it is more intense and faster than just growing on the other side in the higher dimensions. The lessons available at this level are more varied, dramatic and extreme. We can explore and experience lessons in physicality which isn’t available in the higher dimensions. Because of the 3-D body’s emotions, we can feel everything more deeply. We can explore all kinds of themes and story lines. We can change our gender and make use of the karmic system, which isn’t available in the higher dimensions.

A handful of higher dimensional beings at the school, are from previous universes and are not required to incarnate into the 3-D unless they want to. They may choose to incarnate and play the role of a major teacher in one of the themes and then follow up and guide their teachings from the other side. The majority of the beings at this school are from this current universe and are required to incarnate to get a full rounded education in order to graduate and leave the school. There are other schools in the universe that are based in the higher dimensions and much less intense than earth.

Mass Awakening?

Posted on January 15, 2019May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

I was recently asked If there is one collective mind, then why doesn’t awakening of one lead to the awakening of all?

All will eventually awaken, but the One of us All, has its own timing of how and when this happens for each of us. All of our souls were not birthed into manifestation from the One at the same time, so why should they all awaken at the same time? This would defeat the journey of self-discovery. If it all happened at the same time it would take away from the cosmic adventure of becoming an individual, which is the whole point of splitting the soul in the first place.

In terms of the coming collective shift and the new earth, as this is happening approaches, more beings are having awakening experiences every day and our awakening does help others to awaken, but there will never be a time when we are all awakened at the same level.

Understanding there are unlimited universes all happening at the same time on an infinite spectrum of light gives the notion of a collective mind a different meaning. The collective part is we are all from the same soul but have come out of the One at different points of the collective soul’s journey and this is where the term old soul and young soul came from. There is a lot of misinformation about what this reality and creation are and unraveling and understanding the truth is part of the journey.

Explaining What Soul Is to A 3rd Grader

Posted on January 7, 2019May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

Personally, I give little kids a lot of credit for understanding or the ability to understand more than we think they can. I say teach them what you know to be true. This is how I would explain the notion of soul to a 3^rd grader:

the soul is the thing which breaths us and gives us all life. We all have part of the same soul in us and when it leaves the body, to go back to its true home, the body has no power. True home is where our soul lives in between lifetimes.

I would also say that we need to sleep and dream each night so that our soul can connect with our true home for a little bit to keep us healthy. I think these are important elements to mention to give a rounded understanding because kids are smart and they think about things.

This is basic information about who we are and essential to understanding Self.

Consciousness Is Infinite

Posted on December 12, 2018May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

I was recently asked: is detachment the root cause from which conscience and soul are formed?

We can only theorize at whatever level we understand or perceive creation and I hope my answer will give reality true justice.

From my current perception, I understand that creation, which is comprised of an infinite universe has no beginning and no end. It just is.

Creation is a paradox, as it is always beginning and it always ending. It is similar to the ancient Greek symbol of the Ouroboros: the snake eating its tail, which means infinity or wholeness. So there is no root cause for the soul and conscience or consciousness (higher self) to be formed as they have always existed. One is purer than the other.

I perceive that creation has always had the desire or push to expand and to know itself. We are ourselves are a microcosm of the whole. Within each of us is the desire to grow and to understand who we are…. What is our origin? Your question is a good example of this. Creation is a spectrum of light. There will always be consciousness which is lighter than our own and there will always be consciousness which is darker than our own.

The Self and the Sleeping Self

Posted on January 3, 2014May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

Our Self, as a being, is made up of three parts: our physical self who hosts our ethereal self (higher self) and soul self. The higher self is the host for the soul and who we are when we are not in this physical body. The higher self is like a bridge for our consciousness; it is the go-between to our soul and physical self. The soul is the part of us which has no beginning and no end and knows no limits. Only higher self and physical self has limits and has a beginning and end.

At the beginning of a Universal Cycle, the soul comes out of the One and is given a higher self to function and play in creation. The soul stays in the higher self until the end of the Universal Cycle and then it either merges back into the One or the higher self enlists in the angelic kingdom to serve other Universal Cycles. The soul and higher self explore the spectrum of light via training grounds like earth or other planetary schools located thru out the universe.

When entering a school, physical bodies are given to the soul and higher self as vehicles. Bodies could be anything in the physical realm that a soul wants to experience and not limited to the human experience. Often the soul will split itself into 4-6 parts in what is called lifelines to have a more varied experience and to get the maximum out of school. When the expression of self is no longer needed or we have completed our lessons and schooling on a training ground, our lifelines merge back into us. Lifelines have their own soul and higher self, which is connected to the original soul and higher self. Most of the beings on the planet in this 3-D game are lifelines of their original soul. In such cases, the original soul and higher self stay on the other side of the veil guiding its players or lifelines.

Sleep is necessary for regenerating all parts of Self. Though meditation is a useful tool, sleep is the paramount way of connecting to our higher self and soul. If we are a life- line player, sleep is essential for us to connect to our original, greater self. When we are asleep and dreaming our higher self is awake and taking care of the business of Self on the other side of the veil. When we are awake here our higher self is asleep there. When we are asleep information is downloaded to us and when we are awake we upload information to our sleeping higher self.

If you have paid any attention to your dreams you know there are many kinds of dreams to experience. Sometimes we dream about the lives of the other parts of us or lifeline players. Sometimes we are being instructed or informed and guided by our soul and higher self on a topic or issue in our life. There is so much more to dreaming than people who study dreams realize. This 3-D reality is also a kind of dream, which can be changed without the physical self-realizing a change has happened.

If you study and pay attention to your dreams you will realize that the dream reality of our sleep is as valid as our waking reality dream. Are you awake now or are you dreaming? Are you sure? Yes, this is a trick question, but worth pondering. Because of the dream quality of reality, it is possible for a pole shift and shift in consciousness (a theme change) to take place for this earth school and most of us would not know it. It would be as simple as going to sleep and waking up in a new peaceful, harmonious reality.

This is how planetary schools change their themes. The shift is not happening because of evolution etc. This is a dream… the notion of evolution is part of the dream. We grow lighter so we can see the dream! After the theme changes, it will all seem very normal… like it has always been this way. We simply wake up from being asleep and dreaming and while asleep we were conditioned for the change of theme. Perhaps, after the theme change occurs, it might seem as if the nightmare of this life is only a distant, fading memory of a past dream.

Row row row your boat gently down the stream… merely merrily merely merrily life is just a dream!

Realizing Infinity

Posted on October 15, 2013May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

When I was in my early twenties I had my first awakening experience and vision. It was a very cosmic moment. The vision was alive and sort of like the above fractal image, as well as similar to an Escher 3-D image, which went of for infinity. The vision gave me an understanding of infinite and being eternal. Because of my early Christian background, I called it my Christ experience. In that moment and for the next 48 hours I was infinite and One with creation. I saw the Universal Cycles of Creation….. cycles within cycles within cycles.

It has taken me 40 years to grow into the vision and to be able to hold the vision with an understanding of the Universal Cycles without short-circuiting my brain. The higher self is born into a Universal Cycle. All souls come from the same Nothingness but requires a higher self as a vehicle. Which cycle was your higher self born into? Aside from being Nothing and Everything…. who are you? What do you know about your higher self? Where were you before coming to this earth school and given a 3-D body? Where will you go after you have graduated from here? What does it mean to be angelic?

Just some things to ponder…..

Having An Opinion

Posted on January 9, 2013May 25, 2020 by Sheilan ~ Infinite Living

In the Advaita and non-duality community, I have seen people thinking that to have an opinion is unenlightened and undesirable!!!! My perception and opinion 😉 is this: concerning enlightenment, it matters not if we have opinions or not. What matters is our attachment and identification to the opinion that we make. This shows a subtle and important distinction and understanding of Self.

The ego is not the issue or problem. It is our attachment to what the ego does and says, which keeps us from enlightenment. It is our beliefs we are the ego/body foremost and this denies soul it’s due reign over all parts of Self. Sometimes in the process of giving soul it’s due we go to the other extreme and deny our opinions and then we appear cardboard like. This reveals we our identifying our Self, on some, level as the ego/body. The ego/body self is our vehicle. We do not exist without the container of some kind of ego/body and higher self. The ego is not the part of Self, which identifies. So then what deeper part of us is doing the identifying? It is the part of us, which is in the process of waking up to Self and why we chose to come to earth school.

We become handicapped when we deny or don’t recognize all parts of Self. To be balanced and whole is to embrace having an opinion and an ego while knowing we are soul/consciousness foremost and so live our lives surrendered to Consciousness and soul. Our higher self, which many do not realize exists, is the part of us which is the bridge between the other two parts of Self and that, which is awakening to Self. While on earth we are all three parts of Self. Jesus Christ called these three parts of Self the Father (soul/Consciousness), Son (human body) and Holy Ghost (higher self). When not incarnated on earth-like schools, we are the soul and higher self in the higher dimensions of a school. Higher self can be known and directly connected and communicated with via our meditations.

Enjoy your opinion!
