Hi

Hi Everyone!
My name is Linda and I am from a coastal town southwest of
Melbourne, Australia. I discovered the Divine Truth teachings
about 6 months ago, and have spent many hours devouring the info
(prob to the point of addiction :-\)?? So.... it all makes
sense, and offers so many insights and answers to questions that
have for so long been playing on my mind. But I still am only
skirting around the edges, too afraid to jump right in......for
so many reasons.
Some things just freak me the hell out altogether.
But I have decided its time to reach out a little, perhaps
making contact with other like minds, and so here I am. I am
also very keen to attend the 'event' coming up, but OBVIOUSLY I
have money issues, because it has currently completely dried
right up! :-[
I am looking forward to hearing what you all have to say
Linda x

Hi Linda,
Great to hear from you and thank you for telling us a little
about yourself. I think we all were totally addicted to divine
truth videos when we first encountered them; so hungry were we
for truth!
Are you from a religious background? What is it that freaks you
out about the teachings (I know all the spirit stuff is pretty
confronting!)

Hi Victoria
Thanks for your reply, and nice to meet you too.
At the moment the 'spirit stuff' isn't the first and foremost
thing that freaks me out. I haven't come from a religious
background, but my spiritual investigations so far have always
included the reality of afterlife and mediumship/spirit
interaction. BUT, in saying that, Aj's teachings regarding the
degree to which spirits are involved with us, and the amount of
overcloaking and interference going on is somewhat uncomfortable
to confront.
What really gets me is the degree of commitment following this
path requires. I may guilty of a bit of 'all or nothing' in the
way I do things - but I find it very overwhelming. I had a dream
about standing in the ocean with huge waves constantly washing
over me..........I knew how to navigate the waves and come out
the other side, but it was never ending and very hard work.
I am not sure I can cope with checking every single emotion,
every single day. Does that make me self centered and
narcissistic? AJ talks of spending hours and weeks crying over
things, I understand that release removes the emotion forever,
but what sort of life is that? Is he happy? Is Mary happy? I
know that video recordings are only a snap shot, but in so many
of them, he has been crying, angry, dealing with stuff, being
attacked by and he's way ahead of us!!
I don't have doubts about the teachings(predominantly in my mind
at this stage that is ;) ). Logically they make sense. I have
noticed the patterns of the laws in life, so having them
articulated and confirmed was so reassuring. I just don't know
if I have the energy to follow this path..........

Yes it is certainly overwhelming at times. :-\
Jesus and Mary have told us that due to their 1st century life
and the re-birth process they have much (100x more) more intense
and confronting emotions to experience. For us in our first
incarnation it shouldn't be quite so traumatising (depending on
what damage has been done I guess). So I hope that reassures you
somewhat.
Also I feel you are not being very gentle with yourself. God is
so so so gentle with your soul. Have you seen the recent talks
on 'understanding your emotional self' these are very helpful
for those of us who are 'worrying' about every emotion.
We don't have to check every, just feel every emotion whilst
realising that projecting out of harmony with love emotions is
very damaging to others.
A small child will often cry 5-10 times a day...they can still
be a 'happy' child. They can be in the utmost distress in 1
minute and giggling with joy the next; they are fully emotional
people - that's what we are aiming for on the path.
With love sister
Victoria

Hi Linda!
Welcome :)
I just want to thank you and Victoria for the words you have
written here; Very helpful for me at this time... Reminding me
that I am happy when I'm crying out causal grief. I've become
much more aware of the difference between crying about effects
vs. crying out the cause, and the difference is Hope and Love
are present when I'm crying out the cause, with God's help.
I've also recently become much more attuned to how humility is a
'happy', 'present' state of being. It is so much more
satisfying, uplifting and blissful to be humble and
communicating with God, and overwhelmed, than to be maintaing
facade, depleting my self.
Thank you sisters,
Veronica
