Ok that you're right about, ive become super ungrounded before but this time it hit an all time low.

I dont mind questioning my exustence but till the point where i feel like its completely flawed and pointless no matter what, thats messed up. In that case i love the light, theres so much to do in the light and as a supreme being i would have it no other way, thank lucifer in that case lol. Why would i want to be a state of "blissful nothing" maybe eventually. For a bit. But thats boring. Lame anti illuminati people.

<p>So, what happens sometimes when you're learning and consuming spiritual knowledge can be what I sometimes call spiritual indigestion. It happens when you take on a big load of information that challenges most if not all of your deep rooted beliefs that you previously had as your foundation for your psyche.

<p>So, what happens sometimes when you're learning and consuming spiritual knowledge can be what I sometimes call spiritual indigestion. It happens when you take on a big load of information that challenges most if not all of your deep rooted beliefs that you previously had as your foundation for your psyche. It's important to keep balancing your life as best as you can. Physical exercise and talking with friends and family about non-spiritual subjects can be another great way to take a break and rest up and ground your energy. Remember to eat and take care of your body as a temple. Here are some other insights from<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.empoweredsoul.com/spiritual-practice-staying-grounded/" target="_blank">Andrea</a>, a fellow traveler on the way:</p>
<p>When we are heavily engaged in spiritual practice, staying grounded can be challenging. We can divert a little too much of our energy towards the spiritual plane. We begin disconnecting from our physical reality. We may be floating around on a cloud after a great workshop, or feel particularly blissed out after a long meditation session. This “spiritual high” is wonderful – up to a point. We have to remember that we exist here in the physical plane for good reason. Grounding the energy that arises from spiritual practice assists us in utilizing that energy in a practical way. It also prevents the inevitable “crash and burn” that follows prolonged spiritual highs!</p>
<p>Before we get into tips and techniques on becoming and staying grounded, here are some signs that you may be too disconnected from the physical plane:</p>
<ul>
<li>You feel as if you are walking around in a spacey haze.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>You are scattered and forgetful.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>You are having trouble connecting to others. Your attention keeps drifting while you are in conversation. You may forget what you were about to say, or lose track in mid-sentence.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>You avoid practical, necessary tasks such as paying your bills or doing your taxes. You feel resentful at having to bother with these mundane matters.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>You forget to eat or drink.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Taking care of your physical body – showering, shaving, putting on make-up and so forth – seems tedious.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>In the extreme, you feel out of control, as if the practical aspects of your life have suddenly become unmanageable.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Meditating is more interesting than a new episode of “Gray’s Anatomy.” Wait, maybe that’s just me …</li>
</ul>
<p>Connection to the spiritual plane is a wonderful thing. However, we must not be fooled into thinking that we must lose our connection to our physical existence in order to connect deeply to Spirit. The two are not separate – we must live in both equally!</p>
<p>Becoming and staying grounded is incredibly important if our spiritual evolution is to have an effect on our physical existence. Here are some specific ways you can bring an appropriate amount of your energy back to the physical plane.</p>
<ul>
<li>Work up a sweat. Hard exercise brings your attention back to your physical body. A mere walk will not create the same results. The point is to vigorously engage your body. It’s hard to ignore your physicality when your heart is pounding and your muscles are aching pleasantly.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Spend time in nature. Put your feet on bare rock, or walk on some cool, soft grass. Dig your toes into Mother Earth. Hug a tree. Lie on the ground and soak up some sunlight.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Bake bread. There is something about kneading dough by hand – touching earthy grains and the rhythm of working the dough – that is profoundly anchoring. Baking bread is an ancient ritual that connects us to the need for physical nurture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Do some gardening – without gloves on. Touch Mother Earth and get some dirt under your fingernails.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Take a pottery class. Nothing is more grounding and centering than throwing clay. If you do professional intuitive work or have a strong meditation practice, this is one of the most balancing hobbies you can take up.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>If you practice yoga, focus on balancing poses such as Tree Pose. Standing on one leg forces us to become more deeply rooted into the ground.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Carry around pieces of hematite or onyx. Both stones have grounding qualities.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Drink hibiscus tea. Hibiscus stimulates the lower two chakras.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Try rubbing grounding essential oils such as patchouli or cedarwood on your ankles.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Wear red or eat red foods. Red is the color of the root chakra.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Eat root vegetables, such as carrots, parsnips, beets, turnips, sweet potatoes and regular potatoes. Leafy greens such as kale and dandelion are also very grounding.</li>
</ul>
<p>Staying grounded in our physical reality by no means hinders our connection to the spiritual plane. By staying balanced within both, we can manifest the results of our spiritual practice more powerfully at the physical level of our lives.</p>

<p></p>
<p>I actually tuned into "what is Astral quest' just today, after viewing it a while back. I think it's being featured on the on the homepage; and of course, you can always head over to astralquest.com.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Here's another one within the Astral quest series - not sure which episode or season it's from (October 30-2012) entitled "Ascension Techniques" which I think might be very insightful at the moment. I'm extracting it form youtube: (have a listen primarily at 19:30, where Sevan deals with the topic of energy: if you're not going to listen to the complete video);</p>
<p> </p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHQX7FjEieA&feature=share&list=PL_LtcH31mPi_Jsvl9RnDTIyVLAJVZdNDF&index=4" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHQX7FjEieA&feature=share&li...</a></p>
<p></p>
<p>............................</p>
<p>Also, a few months ago, I came across a video by 'Mooji" entitled "There's No Room For Two - Satsang with self - you can probably find the video on youtube, but it had resonated much, and so I wrote it out (one of my hobbies lol). The actual words will follow after the brief questioning I had with self:</p>
<p></p>
<p><span>Have you ever felt like no matter what you do; you can't seem to get in touch with your HIgherself - some people refer to Higherself as God communicating with them: Creator Source; Divine Almighty etc. You feel this sense of detachment, because you know what it's like to feel this presence. And now it's gone!</span></p>
<p></p>
<p>You feel a sense of emptiness!</p>
<p>Why do I feel this way - or what am I doing wrong?</p>
<p>Am I not spiritual enough?</p>
<p></p>
<p>I came across a lecture / satsang by Mooji which took place in Portugal this summer. Here's what he had to say that could shed some light on this matter:</p>
<p><font size="5">If You Want To Meet God, You have to disappear!</font></p>
<p>Not everytime you see a human form means there's someone in there.Not everytime you see a human being's form means that there's a person inside there. Sometimes there's no person inside there. It's your assumption that puts somebody in there. And it's your understanding that takes everybody out of there too.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Sometimes your understanding is so powerful, that you've taken all the people out of their bodies, somehow - and only the supreme is there. Then let the supreme talk all the rubbish he wants. But no person can be found.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I told you the story of the saint who is meditating, and found himself at the door of God. And he knocked on the door. A voice said "Who is it?".... The saint replied - It is I my Lord! </p>
<p>The voice said "Go Away, there's no room for two in here!"</p>
<p>The saint feels completely crushed. He sinks back again into meditation. There's a fire burning inside. Fire burning! Fire burning!</p>
<p></p>
<p>Now he cannot meditate. God has sent him away. But that sending away is so powerful; so urgent, that he finds himself again at the door. He knocks at the door again; and the voice says - "Who is it?"</p>
<p>The saint replied - "It is you my Lord!"</p>
<p>"Ahhh... Come in!"</p>
<p>"Come In!"</p>
<p></p>
<p>There's no room for two in this inner place. No room for two!</p>
<p>Either you are there, or God is there. But there's no room for two.</p>
<p>So... How to be only there! With God as God. How do you do this.</p>
<p>We don't know. And in the not knowing - this is grace itself: how to know what to do what you cannot do.</p>
<p></p>
<p>There's something that is so primal inside of us. It was there before we learned how to do and how to be. It is there. It is not something that would be achieved. It is something that is so deeply primal inside. But as long as you think you can do something, the delusion continues. Then you realize; this cannot be done; I cannot do it.</p>
<p></p>
<p>How can I not be I? And then you're going to find something: a power that you overlooked. I don't know how to say this. They're no books on how this is done. And maybe it's not done. I prefer that nobody can do it; than somebody can do it. There's so much greater power that nobody can do it, than if somebody can do it, because it calls you beyond yourself.</p>
<p></p>
<p>It calls you beyond yourself. How are you going to go beyond yourself!</p>
<p>It brings you to the limits - to the edge of your own mind.</p>
<p>How do you go beyond your mind?</p>
<p>I say you cannot go!</p>
<p>You can only be.</p>
<p></p>
<p>...... I mean; who is there for us? Consciousness or person? Who is there most - consciousness or the person? </p>
<p>...............................</p>
<p></p>
<p>Hope this provides some opening Amir! There's a lot of information we have at our fingertips, but ever so often I find the need to retreat if I find myself being pulled by the magnetism of information surrounding me; check 'in' before you check 'out.'</p>
<p></p>
<p>Sometimes the answers we are looking for are found in the same place that the questions are originating from - within. One may argue that "all of the answers" are found within; just a matter of becoming aware of this. And that's what's all these tools are for!</p> ok

<p><span>One more before the mind drops off! Investigate the one who asks the question. Who is it that wants to know about nothingness?</span></p>
<p></p>
<p>D: How is one to enquire: “Who am I?”<br/>M: Actions such as ‘going’ and ‘coming’ belong only to the body. And so, when one says “I<br/>went, I came”, it amounts to saying that the body is “I”. But, can the body be said to be the<br/>consciousness “I”, since the body was not before it was born, is made up of the five elements,<br/>is non-existent in the state of deep sleep, and becomes a corpse when dead? Can this body<br/>which is inert like a log of wood be said to shine as “I” “I”? Therefore, the “I” consciousness<br/>which at first arises in respect of the body is referred to variously as self-conceit (tarbodham),<br/>egoity (ahankara), nescience (avidya), maya, impurity (mala), and individual soul (jiva) . Can<br/>we remain without enquiring into this? Is it not for our redemption through enquiry that all the<br/>scriptures declare that the destruction of “self-conceit” is release (mukti)? Therefore, making<br/>the corpse-body remain as a corpse, and not even uttering the word “I”, one should enquire<br/>keenly thus: “Now, what is it that rises as ‘I’”. Then, there would shine in the Heart a kind of<br/>wordless illumination of the form ‘I’ ‘I’. That is, there would shine of its own accord the pure<br/>consciousness which is unlimited and one, the limited and the many thoughts having disappeared.<br/>If one remains quiescent without abandoning that (experience), the egoity, the individual sense,<br/>of the form ‘I am the body’ will be totally destroyed, and at the end the final thought, viz. the ‘I’-<br/>form also will be quenched like the fire that burns camphor.1 The great sages and scriptures<br/>declare that this alone is release.</p>
