| "Island of Infinity" - by Rassouli |
So the idea is: we're meant to come full circle when it comes to spiritual beliefs/feelings. You start out knowing one truth, and then work your way through a variety of others, only to end up back where you started. Representational of infinity, right?
Although I think the idea is interesting, I have to admit I don't resonate with it at the current moment. It doesn't match my present vibration. However, I'd still like to dwell on the purpose of this "plan," if it's true. I heard someone on SF say that she truly believes we're meant to come full circle, but what would be the point of that? To me, that'd be like saying you start out at one vibration and make your way through a variety of other vibrations (usually higher ones) just to end up back at your original vibration (which is probably "lower"). And of course, this doesn't apply to all people. Those who are into religion tend to stick to one religion all their lives. Their truth may not change at all. So does that mean this idea pertains only to "spiritual" folks?
I mean, I wouldn't be opposed if that's where my path takes me. It would be an interesting display of timelessness/infinity. Maybe that's the point. I just can't anticipate how I'm going to jump from this current perspective back to what I believed before, after seeing everything from the bigger picture. To use a metaphor, it'd be like initially staying at a 3-star motel, only to leap to a 5-star master suite, and then jump back to the motel. I'm so happy with this master suite. This is the best I've ever felt in my life. I feel on top of the world, and I'm now starting to notice how powerful I truly am. Why would I want to go back to the motel?
Oh. Adonai's poking me now. It brings up my recent post on VotS, where we talked about the purpose of incarnation. It says we're here to experience, not to learn lessons. So perhaps part of coming full circle is to experience a wide range of truths and how they apply to this lifetime?
Gah. But that still isn't something I can wrap my head around, because I love it here. I was content at the motel, but I'm fabulous at the master suite. It makes me wonder how I'll make those steps back to the motel, if this full circle idea really is true.
Ah, wait. That's someone else's truth. This person has decided for herself that coming full circle is the way she thinks things ought to be. Why should that apply to me, as well? She's a different face with her own perspective. This idea should have nothing to do with me. However, I now dwell on something Lulu brought up in her blog:
"I can't imagine sitting with one truth for the rest of this life with no change or development."
I agree with that. I mean, yeah. Our vibrations are always changing, so it's natural that our truth/perspective would, too. But that leads me to a new question: how high can we go? If we're infinite, would that mean there is no "highest vibration"? That's a hard thing to wrap a limited mind around, but that means it's probably true, to some degree.
Maybe that's why I've developed a craving for knowledge and experiences. I feel drawn to study more into Hinduism and Wicca (haha, makes me wonder if someone out there calls him/herself a Hindu-Wiccan). I want to expand upward by expanding outward.
So yeah. I'm going to let go of the full circle thing. Not sure if it'll resonate with me in the future. Best not to dwell on it... instead, I'm going to focus on what I'm resonating with now. I'm sure there's a reason why I'm being pulled in this direction, anyway.
*Also - I had a 2nd success today with that garage door.

Heheh, you just reminded me of my old motto.
ReplyDelete"Never carve your beliefs in stone before the day you die." Beliefs should be fluid enough to grow and change as we grow and change throughout our lifetime ;) And it's only when we've died, that they can no longer be changed. But that's what I believed in before I got into the reincarnation theory, so the part about dying got chucked out the window since our soul never really dies, LOL.
That's so kuul about the garage door.
Yeah, and you know, it just makes me wonder... one reason why I don't like the "full circle" theory is because I'm not too keen on the idea of experiencing all that stuff just to end up back where I started. I'm cool with experiencing the "stuff," but I want to expand... not just end up back at the beginning. I won't complain if that does happen, because I'm sure I'll resonate with it, but... hm.
DeleteI'm not a fan of applying age to "spiritual wisdom," but it's a weird thought to be 19 years young and to have a perspective that is now pretty expansive. Really makes me wonder what's supposed to come "next."
I think what that theory means it's like having to start all over again when your new beliefs no longer serve you. So it's not like starting right back at 0, but more like moving on up to 10. Then a whole new set of beliefs come in until even they max out, or get "destroyed". And then you start the cycle of discovery all over again, but this time you're at 20. So it's never starting back again at the exact same spot, but the situation of getting rid of your old beliefs for something new, is kind of similar to starting all over again, but it isn't cause now you're also wiser from the stuff that you just got rid of. So it is like an expansion. At least that's what my take on that theory is.
ReplyDeleteAnd spiritual wisdom can come at any age ;)Just because you're young doesn't mean you can't find wisdom. And anybody that says different is a fool. So just think of how well rounded you will be in another 19 years. You've got a pretty good head start on the great majority of people your age ;)
