I have some questions I need to be answered if people would be so kind as to help me out. 10 yrs ago I got swept up in the new age movement and have learned a lot. Some things resonate with me while other ideas I find puzzling. At the time I was so desperate to figure myself out and later I found that I was kinda swallowing these new age ideas without giving it much thought. Even though I feel that there was always a part of me that has an eye of discernment, I had to catch myself and really question and ponder these New Age subjects. I've got my own philosophies, perspective, and ideas for sure and I think they're working out for me just fine but I could use some insight and want to hear some different perspectives. Please don't judge me too harshly, I understand I may be challenging some really mainstream New Age ideas.
Here we go:
1. What do people mean when they say " We Are One"?
I get this nightmarish idea of Oneness meaning that we'll all be a big blob of soul star stuff without any freedom to be, think, and act independently and I really don't want that. Oneness could mean that the power of one individual can make all the difference and when individuals orchestrate and unite as unique individuals with many special talents great things can be accomplished. I don't really believe we are all one and the same because we have all gone different paths and experienced different things. Every character has developed differently and is unique. We should celebrate and honor our differences as well as the things we have in common or that are the same. I've also learned a thing or two about boundaries and having healthy boundaries is very important. Without the contour of our outlines, we might all bleed into each other and the universe and that just sounds so unpleasant. As an introvert, I enjoy the privacy of my inner universe and the freedom to choose what I share with others and what I don't. Of course, I believe in Connectedness and the Bonds I share with special individuals who have touched my life. The Ripple Effect is a key idea, where the energies we beings are broadcasting out into the universe affect us all eventually in some way.
2. What is this ascension thing and why do people think the 5th dimension is really so much better than the 3rd?
I feel like a being must purify and transform on the inside, on a soul level for your experience on any dimension to be more harmonious. What I'm trying to say is that the paradigm of Earth's third dimension is unhealthy because of bad vibes rippling out into the world from corrupt beings. I feel that it's not the third dimension that is evil but the tainted forces that are out there who are to blame. You can't blame the stage for bad acting. My experiences on the third dimension have been rather great or at least I make the best of what I got. If you ask me, divinity exists on all levels of the universe, all dimensions, so the 3rd dimension must have a greater purpose. Also, want to note that Earth is a multi-dimensional being and in contemplating this I had to ask myself, If a multi-dimensional being has a sickness in one dimension, wouldn't that affect the entirety of that being?
3. Why are higher vibrations so much more divine than lower vibrations?
From my perspective, it makes more sense to me to Tune my vibrations. Like in music the idea is to get ringing clarity instead of the sluggish or harsh wobble. Gotta have a good bass or you'll just be in a whole lot of treble.
Well, that's all I've got for now, If I think of more questions I'll be sure to ask.
Thank you for listening and hope to hear back soon
