Yet, the thing is so tricky. I feel so much better when I pray. In my experiece, trying to convince myself I am strong enough to overcome something doesn't work as well as praying and asking for strenght. Then, I feel God must be separate from me because He kind of answers and I feel much better inside. If I just tell myself I am strong enough i feel a bit as deceiving myself...

Many people have experienced this before somehow. We're just now putting words to it. That, too, is an experience of it. Many people have experienced this before somehow.

Did I have this? I had this experience one night, that lasted only about 3 seconds our time, but I did not just become fully lucid, and this whole reality was a dream...but I actually woke up from the dream entirely. I was in a different dimension. I realized that I was literally God/god-consciousnesses, and the entire universe/reality/everything-that-is, was just a play (cyclic existence) from very deep within...much like our dreams at night are just subconscious plays from deep within us. Maybe this is what the term "ascension" refers to? Ascension?? Did I have this?

The concepts of God that many of us were raised with, as it turns out, has very little to do with the experience of God. What good is a concept about color to a blind person? Only direct experience will suffice. Not matter how accurate or inaccurate our descriptions, they're not going to help as much as one would hope. Regarding not feeling comfortable, that is totally understandable. The "you" who you feel is not completely trustworthy is totally lovable and wonderful, yet that's not actually who you are, nor is that who God is! The "you" who is the most accurate reflection of God's true nature is different from the God you've been told about, growing up. If you investigate and find out who you REALLY are, any worries and discomfort will automatically dissolve and you may just find that there's nothing to fix. You are totally whole and perfect just as you are. All that's left, right now, is to discover this on your own for yourself, and then to live and be that. Much Love, Esther :) Hey Esther,

Thanks I kind of feel strange about ourselves being God though. Oneness really resonates within me when thinking of other people but I cannot really grasp it when thinking about God. It also feels kind of sad as in I would need God to be separate from me to really trust Him as I have betrayed myself so many times. I don't know. I find it like less comforting. Any thoughts about this? Ariel, this is a great post. Thanks
