Ten Signs That Your True Self is Waking Up
By Cathy Eck
Spiritual Awakening or True Self Remembering?
Many people around the world are in the process of what's often called spiritual awakening; or as the ancient initiates called it, remembering their True Self. The ancient initiates saw everything as mind. They didn't have the concept of spirit. But they had the view that part of our mind is hard wired. You can't alter it. It's perfect.
Unlike the idea that many have about the soul, this part of our mind stays perfect. You can't screw it up. But you can cover it up with a false self. So in the mind of the ancient initiates, spiritual awakening would be more like remembering who you are. I say remembering, not awakening, because your spirit has always been awake. It didn't fall, die, or disappear. It didn't fall asleep, so it doesn't need to wake up. You just covered it up with beliefs and false reasoning. Now you're questioning those lies.
The reason that I wrote this blog and http://nolablesnolies.com is to help people through this difficult phase of life. Most techniques and explanations out there today produce fear, frustration, and suffering. They don't help one get to their true goal of mental and emotional freedom because they think the spirit is awakening, when really we're being called to drop the false self. No one has ever told us how to do that.
When this happens, we look at the civilized world, produced by the wealthy élite, and we just know that it's all a bunch of lies. We see holes in the logic of politics, religion, and education. We listen to the news and recognize the bias with which it's presented. We're tired of superficial conversations and people with socially proper masks. We see the collective illusion that we've been taught to see, and it looks real. It is real, but it isn't true. It's just an illusion — a bunch of commonly held beliefs stored in our false mind. And if we let it go of our OWN false mind, we won't see that illusion anymore; or if we do see it, we won't be bothered by it. Too often people get angry at the illusion, fight it, and protest it instead of letting go. That doesn't get us to freedom. There is no need to fight something unreal; you just have to stop paying attention to it so it can disappear.
We just want to be our SELVES!
People in the process of remember who they are hear a friendly, unconditionally loving voice that says, "Don't listen to other people. Follow me. Do your own thing. Listen to your heart." Call it their passion or call it their True Self, as I do; it's a much more pleasant voice to honor. People soon realize that this voice feels good; and that old, critical and punishing voice feels terrible.
The Big Psychological Reversal
Thousands of years ago, the Lords, Priests, and Kings reversed our psychological perspective for their own benefit. Originally, we were True Selves that followed our heart, our joy, and our passion. Staying on our own path and achieving our destiny was easy.
But then things changed. Most myths and legends say that some people became power-hungry. They wanted others to serve them and their needs. Or perhaps they wanted to make life a bit more interesting and challenging. The reason this psychological reversal occurred is unclear. But there is no question that it actually occurred.
Humans were slowly conditioned through stories and laws to believe that thoughts which felt bad were true; and thoughts that felt good and calm were imaginary or temptations to trick us. This enabled the élite, who created this giant web of lies, to get rich, powerful, and have plenty of slaves to fulfill their needs. They didn't believe their own lies. But masses of people believed their lies and lived small, unfulfilled lives. Sadly, most of the population still believes these same lies and still accepts beliefs that don't feel good without even a hint of discrimination.
People are Catching On
This is such a wonderful time. The false matrix or illusion, which held everyone bound in slavery, is losing its power; and those who support it are being exposed. People now question the leaders who sound great but feel terrible. They question false authority and choose to ignore it. As more and more people catch this wave of truth, unconditional love, and freedom, we can all move toward paradise on earth very quickly if people let go of the old beliefs. And therein lies the problem. People don't know how to let go of their old beliefs. Their minds are at war between the old false and the True. They aren't sure what is True and what is false. And too many channels and New Age teachers are offering reasons that aren't correct or helpful. Techniques that got us to see the facade don't get us out of it.
Even worse, eastern teachings have flooded the western world. They speak about the good, the positive, and the true. They encode their beliefs into practices and rituals. And they project the bad, the negative, and the false on to others who don't do the practices or think the good thoughts. It is just another version of the religious notion of good and evil. When we put the truth from others in our mind, we create a false positive self. You see, we already know the truth. We came hard wired with it. We need to expose our truth, not learn or memorize it.
After marinating in eastern or New Age/self help teachings, we think we are our True Selves when we aren't. We fall into a great deception. The way to know if you have been tricked in this way is that you feel good inside of yourself, and often think positive good thoughts when alone or meditating. But you see a horrible world that seems to be coming at you. You often feel so sensitive and want to stay away from others. But these are just the projected aspect of the beliefs (truth from a teacher or guru) coming back at you like a boomerang. We must let that projection go by recognizing it's untrue. In fact, we have to let the truth teachings go too. Then we are left with our True Self. It's strange when we do this. We think we need all that crap in our minds.
As I learned how to discriminate between the different voices in my mind, I've discovered many of the traps and tricks that the false mind uses to keep us enslaved. Once we recognize these traps, we no longer fall for them. You realize they are tricks when you let them know that you know they are not true, and they eventually yield. The True Self is always more powerful than beliefs or lies.
False Labels and Lies
Sadly, many of the signs of remembering our True Self and needing to let go of the false self have been labeled as problems or diseases; this causes us to get trapped in the false world again and again. We think there is something wrong when there is actually something right.
So here are a few signs of remembering our True Self that are often mislabeled as flaws or problems. You don't need to have them all (or any for that matter), so don't create those you don't have. If you have noticed any of these errors in your mind, simply let them go when they arise by noticing the thoughts don't feel good and reminding yourself that they are not true. If you need help letting go, see my other blog, No Labels, No Lies. I recommend starting with the earliest posts and moving forward in time.
False notions always come with emotion, usually lots of it. And we've often numbed ourselves to emotions in the past. We did this because we felt trapped; and when in prison, it is more pleasant to numb yourself than to feel emotional pain. Many of us created positive, happy personalities to mask our pain. Others simply wallowed in the sadness and hoped for a little attention. We must be willing to feel again to know true from false. We must be willing to call our mind on its games and payoffs and stop giving them energy.
1. People who once sounded intelligent or spiritual now sound ridiculous.
I was recently on a cruise ship where a Rabbi provided a daily, religious service. He spoke about the story of Noah's ark. He never once offered a metaphorical interpretation or even a lesson. He told it as real proof and reason to fear the end times, God hates us, story. I almost started to laugh. He really took that story seriously. He really thought that animals marched on the ark two by two. He was an adult, a mature man, who never questioned the logic of the story. He sounded like a child. And people applauded his sermon. They didn't question his words because he was an authority.
How do I know that story is not true? I could say it is illogical to think that one man could get two of every species of animals on an ark. I couldn't even get my dog and my cat in the same room most of the time. But logic can lie. A better reason is that the notion that God would wipe out his own human children doesn't feel good. I've learned that when our emotions roar we are thinking or hearing a belief, not the truth. We have to catch that a psychological reversal that was implanted into our mind earlier in life is running.
When we find the perspective where logic and emotions agree, we've found the truth. We've found the perspective of the God and Goddess who were united in the ancient alchemical marriage.
One of the tricks that the old patriarchal Lords used to subdue the masses was to tell a story with a hero who followed their rules. The people focused on the hero consciously while their unconscious took in the true intention of the story, which was to program the people to think they were powerless mortals. The story was designed to make people fear God's wrath. It sent an unconscious message that God was vengeful and powerful; and we had better obey like Noah. Once we accepted a story as true, we begin to see proof of it. Our world reflects what we believe to be true until we let our beliefs go. So the story takes on a life of its own. We no longer challenge its validity.
People point to the Bible as the word of God as proof for the stories. The Bible was written by initiates, and they didn't perceive the world like people do today (but we'll leave that for another article). The truth is that our concept of God fell, not humans. S/he went from being a creator to a punishing judgmental male jerk (a projection of the leaders of the time).
Ancient writers held a different understanding of the word God. It originally meant ancestors or leaders. The word Lord was similar. God became associated with punishing, jealous, angry dictators who were a far cry from the unconditional loving perfection of what the indigenous ancient people saw as the Great Spirit, Creator, or the initiates called the Grand Architect.
2. You feel constant emotion around other people.
This is a very confusing symptom. People often believe they are depressed, bipolar, or going insane. They also often think the emotions are coming from others. They usually aren't. The emotions are caused by believing what others are saying; and the others aren't speaking truthfully. We should just ignore them. But we developed this habit as children.
The false self, wanting to stay alive; so it never tells the truth. Our false self is personal; it was not meant to be connected to others. However, we acquire it from others so we create false connections like cords that feel like relationship but are really just shared beliefs. When we meet others with the same false beliefs, we feel related and safe. But this is a false relationship. Our True Self doesn't connect with others around beliefs; in fact, you can't break a true Self connection. You can only mask it with false self relating. Thus unconditional love never dies; but romance fades over time.
Let's say that you shared a cultural belief or tradition with your family. Now you start challenging your own mind and letting go of false beliefs. You recognize that this tradition was only a belief. You feel disconnected from your family. You still have a True-Self connection, but the false-self connection is now broken. That can feel like a loss although it is really a gain.
3. The body demonstrates the symptoms of all the illnesses we once believed were real.
This is a good one. Most of us connected our false mind to our body. We took knowledge that we acquired from others about health, food, disease, exercise, etc. and gave the knowledge power over our body. The True Self manages the body perfectly, but not if it isn't in charge.
Our false mind holds beliefs about diseases, and we are sure they are real. If we meet the conditions for the diseases we hold in mind, we get them. We were taught about diseases from authorities who had conviction that they were real.
We are naturally healthy; only a false self can get a disease. To get free of the disease mindset, we have to face all of our beliefs and let them go. So our body will show us what we believe. Our job is to recognize the belief, and let it go.
This is tricky. If we are working as a healer, we might say we believe in health. But then what are we treating? In my work, I have to let go of the belief that people are not free or else I keep them stuck. If they bring up a lie, I don't go into a protocol to fix the lie. I simply recognize the lie as a lie/belief and let it go in my mind. That gives them the freedom to do the same. In truth, we can only heal ourselves. But often the beliefs of others imposed on us can make that healing difficult.
When disease symptoms first arose within my body, I thought I was being punished by the mean God in the sky. I could not find the cause. Sometimes my body was giving me a specific message; but more often I had just accepted a belief in the disease or punishment from another. We have to remember that doctors and healers don't have an income if we are well. They have little motivation to see us as perfect. Once we see this, we stop asking them to keep us healthy. They can't do it because they hold in mind a huge catalog of things that go wrong with bodies. They can't imagine a person who is perfectly healthy; so don't ask them to do so.
4. We feel like we don't belong.
We go to the doctor and feel like we don't belong. We don't. We go to church and feel like we don't belong. We don't. We take a class and find the information doesn't feel good. These were all places that we previously went to feel safe or included. They're hang outs for false selves. The false self hates being alone. It wants to be among like-minded people.
Oh we definitely DO belong in the world. The world was designed for the True Self, not the false self. But the True Self doesn't feel lonely. It's connected to everyone unconditionally.
It's the false self that doesn't belong. Often it is very hard to remember that when we see how well the world accommodates false selves.
5. We can no longer work for the man.
We finally quit that secure job, and our family and friends lose it. They're sure we'll be homeless; and if we share our family and friend's beliefs, we will be.
We've lost our ability to play the master-slave game. That is a cause for celebration. But it often doesn't feel like a celebration if we're surrounded by people who remind us that our future home will be the sidewalk on Main Street. Don't worry. They are just showing us some of our fears that we still unconsciously believe. Notice that none of the things they say feel good. so they are not true. A belief will leave when you no longer believe it. It needs your attention to thrive.
How do you know they are lying or speaking from the false self? After all, they think they have your best interests in mind. People only speak what they believe. The truth is in everyone. It needs no expression. You know untrue statements because they don't feel good…they generate emotion. Our emotions show us what is true and what is false. And if we let go of all the false thoughts, eventually we are left with nothing but truth. The truth was always there; it was just covered by a big pile of manure.
Our desires show up and pull us forward so that we can see our beliefs and let them go. We are not meant to struggle to fulfill our dreams. We are not meant to work to make another rich. It is not virtuous to work hard in a job we hate. Our work was meant to be a labor of love, and we cannot be happy until we achieve that.
6. We lose our empathy.
This sign of remembering confused and bothered me so much. I thought I was becoming a bad person. I thought I was turning into a robot without emotion. I thought I had Asperger's syndrome. But when we awaken, we recognize that our emotions are pointing to our thoughts only. To emote about another's thoughts is like feeding your friend because you are hungry. It's stupid. As we let go, we learn to replace empathy with compassion.
Compassion means that when you are sitting before me flushing your shit all over me, I recognize that it's not true. I don't believe a word you say. I may even remind you that you are believing lies and not being true to your authentic Self. I don't agree with you. I don't pick you up or sympathize. I merely help you discriminate. I help you to return to your own True Self where there are no problems. The best example of this is Jesus. He never believed another's lies, and that's why he could heal anything. He was not sympathetic, he was compassionate.
We live in a world where we feel sorry for others, and then we get approval for being sympathetic. We fish for others, and they never learn to fish. People learn to fish when we tell them how to fish and trust them to do it. Sympathy never frees anyone; in fact, it keeps the person who gives it and the one who receives it in the prison of the false self.
7. You feel like you have no purpose.
All those fake purposes of serving others lose their luster. You can't imagine doing the things that you used to do. You feel the need to do something but don't know what to do. Often, you have no motivation to do much except heal your own mind.
That is great news. That is your purpose. Jesus said it well. "Find ye first the kingdom of heaven and all else will be added unto you."
You're bored with the old world of good and evil; you're sick and tired of being sick and tired. You think hard work is stupid. And you look like a complete ass to the rest of the world. You look lazy as you find no motivation to work hard anymore.
Congratulations, you're True Self is screaming. Don't worry about your purpose or try to explain yourself to anyone. Just keep letting go of the beliefs that pollute your mind or tell you what you should do. Don't take on new beliefs. That's a big trap for many. Freedom is not believing anything. We just know.
8. You can't stand small talk anymore.
Remember all those parties that were so fun where you played silly games and talked about your problems for hours. Those don't cut it anymore. When someone says, "How are you?" you know that they don't care. When they ask you what you do, you have no frickin' idea how to explain it without being judged.
So here is how to handle this situation. Take control of your conversations. Talk about what you love or desire. The person will either find you enjoyable or run for the hills. Either way, you don't have to waste time in small talk.
9. You run like hell from religious people.
Once you wake up, you can see religion correctly. Religion must serve the True Self, not the other way around. Once awake, you see the true meaning of the Holy books. I can assure you that the masses are not even close.
As long as others are trying to save you, convert you, or fix you, you still believe what they are saying unconsciously. I know that's hard to hear if you are recovering from some religion that you believe you left. But old religious beliefs tend to get suppressed. So we project them on the outside world. If we are still afraid of our zealous friends, we need to dissect our own mind.
When you are in the midst of remembering your True Self, you've at least questioned the punishing, angry, jealous God story. But do you completely know it's not true? This is the key. You can't be free until you absolutely know that story is a lie. And you don't know it's a lie until you have completely reclaimed your sense of discrimination.
You know that it's a lie, when you have remembered that any idea that feels bad is a lie, a mere belief. Until you have completely removed that belief, you will attract people who will give you one more rendition of the "saved by Jesus" dance.
I had this one big time. I used to hide from the religious zealots of the world. Then I got clear, and now I am direct and honest with them. I used to feel that I had to prove my spiritual worth to them. Now I ask them to prove their religion to me.
I knew that the punishing God story was a lie when one day I realized that I would never, ever do or think the things that Jehovah did; therefore, he was less than me, not more. He was a false God, a god of the illusion (a projection of Moses' false self). He is no more real than Santa Claus.
10. People see their own reflection in you.
This is the sign of remembering the True Self that sends people right back into the illusion because it's how we got programmed in the beginning from our parents and other authority figures. People in the illusion, who live from the false self, can't see the truth. They can only see their own filter of the world. So they look at you and can't see the changes you've made; they see their old judgments of you even though you aren't that person.
This created so much pain for me. When I was letting go at a rapid speed, I was married to a man who could only see his mother in me. I knew that I was not his mother, but he didn't. We had conversations that made no sense. He'd even see physical issues in me that did not exist but had existed in his mother. When I believed him, I felt crazy. When I didn't believe him, he'd say I was crazy. It was simply time to get out. My belief that we were married (marriage is a false self ceremony created by man) allowed this false relationship to continue.
Our parents often play this same role when they don't see our new heart-centered ways. We are labeled lazy or crazy. This is the hardest part of the journey because we're facing our handlers from the past, the people who installed our false self into our minds. They created us in their preferred image and likeness, and they don't like when we reject their creation. But without this step, we cannot be free.
180 Degrees
The true world is 180 degrees from the false illusion. So things that are problems in the illusion are really signs of our True Self poking out; we are on the train to paradise. We have to pay attention because often the old signs that we followed were directing us down the path to hell, not leading us to the promised land.
The mind can trick us into thinking the illusion of pain and suffering is real. Each time it gets us to believe the old lies, it temporarily pulls us back into its false world. But once we get a glimpse of truth, that old illusion feels really bad. Allow that bad feeling to push you harder toward freedom. Use it as a reminder to let go. Trust that your emotions are exposing the lies and beliefs in your mind, and let them go quickly.
Stay with it. Often when the world seems the most dark and things look hopeless, if we just let go of one more lie, a level of clarity appears; and we see a sign that reminds us that we are headed in the right direction. We gas up the car and keep driving. We'll be there soon.

I keep coming back to this article to remind me that I'm completely off my rockers : ))
Excellent article. Helps to be reminded … today I needed to be reminded that it is okay to no longer have a sense of purpose. I used to feel so driven until a major crisis 18 months ago and I've never been able to feel that motivation again. I thought I had lost something precious and had given up. But maybe it really is okay to just work on clearing my beliefs and see what happens next.
: ) Helle
I am new to this site and am reading each and every article. I read this as I feel I am at a spiritual point in my life. I am soul searching for a purpose, then I read #7 above "you feel like you have no purpose". I know that motivation, and drive feeling, somewhere I lost it. I loved to walk miles a day, now I can go with it or without it. I got laid off of work about a month ago and living in snowy Maine, there isn't much to do outside. Except shovel! I did lots of that. I find it being ok for me to "Just Be" I have no guilt, fear, shame, and on and on because I can sit and look out the window. I feel at complete peace with myself. Yet, I know this is just the tip of what I want to feel. I don't even know if this is making sense. I just know I have never been at a place in myself where I feel calm and no stress. I know things are churning inside, I work at stepping aside and let it be. I do have great faith in God and know he is going to have me be exactly where I need to be. I am in no hurry to find a job (at least in this moment) I think what I am feeling is my job for this time. I am learning lots from the articles I have read and so look forward to seeing what else my true self has in store for me.
Peace to you,
You are heading the right way, Annemarie, and the signs are telling you that. Just keep going. You might also like my other site which has shorter articles on different topics. It is http://nolabelsnolies.com. My goal is to provide the support and community for people like you to keep moving toward your True Self and not feel pulled to turn back. That is how we change the world. Thank you for writing. Cathy
Great article. Im having a hard time with my partner. He says im negative and I dont get excited for anything. I know he doesnt understand and I dont judge him even if it seems like we are growing apart. Events happened that have impacted my view of everything. Its a lonely road. Im glad I found this article. Thank you.
It isn't uncommon for people to grow apart when one steps on the path of apiritual awakening. Just know there is nothing wrong with you and what you are experiencing is good even if it makes him uncomfortable. Thank you for your comment. Cathy
Thanks for this helpful article. I going through must of the situations you wrote about, specially the second one. Sometimes I think I am going crazy or I'm bipolar and it gives me a little headache and anxious because I'm not sure. It's hard to keep in mind this new beliefs when all the people that surrounds you keep telling you that you live in a different reality. I'm doing the steps to became an independent person, but It's very hard to me accept that I have to do some jobs that don't make any senses, like waitress. I also feel a lot of emotions and have a lot of stupid thoughts when I'm with others, like a stream of old beliefs that I can't handled because they are to many and very strong. So this article gave me the hope that there is an end to all this big confusion I'm passing through. Thanks again.
I cant tell thank you enough for this article. I experienced much of what you stated. Every now and again I need a reminder that I am not crazy!! I believe in my heart it was pain that brought me this wondrous gift of awakening. I spent the better part of thirty years not believing in anything due to the simple fact that we do live in a matrix of lies!! I couldn't accept what I was being taught, therefore I chose not to believe in a God. When going through a divorce in 2008 I started seeking for the pain was overbearing. I read the Bible (King James) instead of listening to teachers. I read the Noble Quran, I studied Buddhism, and read several Dead Sea Scrolls. Then one day I was showering, praying to take away this pain when a burst of light entered my mind and in an instant this flash of knowledge so profound went through my head. In that flash I was able to connect everything I had been reading and I now attribute the Gnostics (combined with other teachings) to this awakening. It felt as though a breath of fresh air had entered my body and lifted me up, however it was so strong I dropped to my knees and started crying with JOY!!! I know this may sound crazy and I know its different for everyone but mine was so powerful I nearly lost it. I lived in darkness most my life and this new spiritual feeling inside me was the most uplifting thing I have ever felt and I knew there was a Creator. I quit my engineering job at Boeing and my family thought I was nuts but I could no longer work for the man. There was a problem though, the old beliefs kept trying to creep back in and my family made sure to convince me that Jesus was going to save me for Satan had me in his grip. My mom then diagnosed me bipolar (LOL) and sought to have me committed. It wasn't until I started shutting my mouth about these new ideas I was having that she subsided. The truth of the matter I found is we are all Sons of God…not just Jesus and he cant save me although focusing on just a few of his teachings can. He is a loving God and I no longer fear His wrath. For the first time in my life I am an individual and I refuse to join the masses ever again!!! There are just a few things I focus on now. The Sadducees, Pharisees, and Scribes are liars! Put Him first in all you do! Don't lie, cheat, steal and when you do make amends fast!!! Love everyone as you do yourself! Screw their lies and quit feeling guilty!!! The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. God is LOVE and LOVE=TRUTH!!! That's all folks. I love being crazy!!!
And I love that you are crazy too. Keep up the good work. Today's nuts are tomorrow's oak trees.
Love what you wrote Cathy. It's really great to hear other people sharing their spiritual experiences. There's a truth in all of us. It's so simple, yet so complicated when we look the wrong way. I would love to hear from all of you some day! a bunch of wackos! lol. Please feel free to visit my blog (spiritualwellbeing.ca) and share your thoughts, i would love to get feedback. Hope it will contribute to the awakening process,
What a amazing read, i am going through this myself, would love to connect with other people going through this, was wondering if anyone knew any good forums in which to do that?
great article
Sorry I don't know of any forums. Thank you for your comment. Cathy
Really, really powerful stuff. The reason I'm reading this is because currently I'm experience many of the symptoms you describe above. Even though I've been into spirituallity since I was young, I'm pretty sure I awoke 2 years ago and since then my drive for something more has been nuts. It feels like I'm walking around in a world that does not understand my point of view. I'm having doubts about finishing my studies, working a job, etc. simply because it doesn't seem to make sense anymore. I don't enjoy it. The whole world is screaming that I have to do, something however. I'm only focussed on becoming more of my Self. I have a strong feeling that I want to flee this broken record of people repeating the same mantra's in real life saying I should do this and that. If they would have told me the same things 10 years ago I would've believed them. Now it doesn't make sense what they are saying anymore and the difficult part is that they can't seem to put themselves in my perspective. It is as if I have a whole different look on things than most people around me. Even though I believe in my heart that what I'm doing is right… my world feels like its upside down at the moment and I'm not sure what I'm suppost to do besides look for peace and positivity and take time to purify myself.
Thank you for writing to me. I completely understand your perspective and have been there.
But there is more that you can do. What you are seeking is completely freedom from the
status quo so you can be yourself in the world regardless of what everyone else thinks or does.
I provide free support for that on my other website. I have over 100 articles on letting go
and breaking free on that site. The address is http://nolabelsnolies.com. I created that site
to make life easier and to provide support for people just like you. You aren't alone.
I hope that is helpful to you.
How fantastic it is to read all of this! You have no idea how alone I have felt. I probably have every symptom listed! The only query I have is how do you let things go. I'm really strugglng with this. A few things happened to me during childhood and they keep resurfacing. I don't understand how to tell myself the things are not true when they really did happen? I have truely forgiven all concerned but still they return to my mind again and again – they are causing so much sadness and I'm finding it hard to move forward. Any advise would be appreciated.
Thank you Dee…glad it was helpful. You can learn how to let go at my other website http://nolabelsnolies.com. Start with the earliest posts and the posts build as time goes on. Cathy
Thank you for this article. Over the last two years, I have meditated daily. I reached a low point in my life, previously, to where I began to experience basically all of these symptoms. I actually am currently in my second year of law school, and although I plan to press on and finish (for my family's sake), I find myself looking out the window of the library thinking thoughts such as "the prisons of the world take many forms". A great deal of the time when I find that I am in what I consider to be a mindful state, I feel as if maybe there is something wrong with me because I have an almost complete lack of inner dialogue. I have read articles claiming that these are signs of Electromagnetic Field Sickness, psychosis, etc. It is nice to hear a like minded standpoint. I believe my spirituality to be "correct" with all of me, but the skepticism I have gained since recognizing the problem of ego and my changed perception on the world leads me to think "you can never be 100% sure of anything, almost no one can", basically the core fundamental of quantum mechanics. Naysayers will say what they want, you can almost "see" the egos of others manifest when you speak of "oneness" or "death of the ego" or "treating others kindly" or being honest, not because you lack the ability to lie, because you feel it is toxic for the soul. I believe this is a beautiful time in human history, those who are waking up (which I believe to be, at least partially, contributed to the free flowing knowledge of the internet having an impact on the "collective consciousness") need to be supportive of each other. I am not alone, and neither are you. Love and Light are what drive this universe, all perceptions of "evil" can be traced back to the disease known as ego. Namaste.
Thank you for your comment. I felt exactly as you did. But you see enlightenment isn't the end of the road.
It is a misconception that creates a false endpoint to the journey to freedom and pure joyous creativity.
We see how the world works, and then we must let it go and return to our True Self. Meditation doesn't get us there.
It takes us above our body, but ultimately we want to be in the body and feel as if we are meditating. That path has
been called the path of initiation in ancient times. And that is what I share. We travel that path by
letting go of beliefs and labels that we have been defined by in the past. Then we are reborn and create as pure
creators. And we can't be alone since we have a true connection with everyone.
I write about that on this site as well as my other site: http://Gatewaytogold.com. Have a wonderful journey to freedom.
I can relate to everything in this article. I had what felt like jumper cables used to wake me up and I haven't been the same ever since. What I saw / experienced can't be put in words and my family thought I was nuts when I tried. I have a strong desire to not be in this life anymore because I had a glimpse of something else and I long to be there instead. Its gotten to the point of feeling severely detached and depressed about still being in this life. At times I have clarity and other times my mind is a mass of confusion. I almost can't deal with it…
Thanks for writing Lisa. You aren't alone on that feeling. The strange thing is that when our emotions start to work as they were designed, we're often considered nuts. We start to see through the facades, and people don't want to be exposed. But it does get better with time if you let go. I promise. Cathy
Hi Cathy, Read your article and makes a lot of sense. Its just that I realised I was an empath only last year and before that I was just a girl with weird moodiness, love, telepathic tendencies, etc to the world. I mostly felt out of place and was trying hard to fit in. Sometimes, I could feel pain of people sitting across miles without even they telling me.
Before this realisation, I used to excel at my job and did really well everywhere. But now there has been such a sudden shift in me. I don't feel like going to work anymore, all I want is to sit in Natures lap and keep gazing and absorbing the nectar of nature. I don't align with corporate goals anymore.
The only hitch is I don't have financial backup to Dp all of this. I don't even know where to start from. All I do is just feel lost, because the world and the dictums don't make sense to me.
Maybe if u have some thoughts that 'll be great.
Love and joy
Hello Anu,
I had much of the same problem. First of all I want to recommend an article on my other website: http://nolabelsnolies.com/sympathy-empathy-compassion/.
Many people have found this helpful. You see empathy is a stage and a label. It isn't the destination. So you want to be able to use those valuable emotions to show you
what is false in the person or in your mind and let it go (also explained more on No Labels No Lies). Then you move up to compassion, which most people don't understand.
Compassion is when we recognize that what another is doing or saying or believing doesn't feel good, and it isn't true so we let go of that belief as being who they are
and allow them freedom from it. It is exactly how Jesus healed. He didn't have empathy or sympathy; he had compassion. And that is where real power lies.
As you do that, you find your place within the world where you can make the biggest difference and that takes care of your financial problems. Hope that helps some
if not write to me and I'll guide you to other articles or offer more information that I hope will make a difference. Most of what is out there gets us to the place of empathy,
but what I write about will take you to true compassion. Love, Cathy
I needed to hear #7 as I have struggled with it so much lately, even though I know the only thing I have to do is just be! The world tries to tell me I need to do something in order to be successful. I will focus on my inner self and my family. Thanks, I can relax once again.
Thank you for your comment Cassandra. That one gets a lot of us. The world loves to tell us what to do and how to do it when we already know everything we need. Glad you are now relaxing into that. Cathy
I enjoyed this article a lot and looked it up because I got really scared suddenly and didn't know why. I couldn't understand the feeling and I felt like I'd left my body, but then I realized while reading this it wasn't bad. I was just feeling afraid for punishment from an attacking entity for helping my friends yesterday by helping to suddenly cleanse and open up their chakras. When I did so they said they felt better which made me happy and hopefully they continue to do so. What I really noticed about this article too though is that I've felt many ways similar to this article and it's only a matter of time before I awaken according to my spiritual teachers/ friends. To be honest though I was trying to figure out what pressure on the forehead and feeling whole while it happened meant. Thank you for the article though it was very interesting to read.
Hi Holly,
The fear was the belief that an entity was attacking you. That's false. There are no entities. That's New Age lies that scare people when religion is wearing off. Awakening is about remembering who you are and that you are safe, free, and calm all the time. Sadly many have this confused. You have nothing to fear. Thank you for your comment. Love, Cathy
Wow! I am glad I found this site.. I feel strong love and emotion for everyone i come in contact with. I only see their True self.
I had an amazing awakening about 4 yrs. ago…When I was walking along the river trail here in Bend Oregon, one spring morning…It was beyond words….I felt an over-whelming feeling of love that overcame me to the point of tears of joy…At that point , my whole body was full of pure love and pure light…esp. my crown chakra…I thought it was a kundalini awakening? I was in a constant state of bliss for about 1-1/2 years…I was one with everything..the universe…Today, at times I feel alone, because I know in my heart. I see something others don't see…I can simply be at one with life with no other cares in the world. I am so happy I have reconnected with my true self…And you amazing Folks as well!! I too enjoy being crazy….and apart from the chaos and one with my heart/soul….Thank you for the article…I connect with all of it…and alot of the comments as well….

How big of a role does price play in your beauty purchases? Makes a huge difference? Not much?
There are certain things out of my reach (y'know, like an $800 cream), but I don't worry too much about price as I do about efficacy and whether I'll like it or not. I also look at how many uses I'll get out of it.

To 100+ Women Who Care in Santa Fe
Our next meeting is August 5, 2015
Our meeting dates for 2015: February 4, May 6, August 5, November 4
We welcome you to 100+ Women Who Care in Santa Fe and invite you to become part of this powerful group to have a positive impact on those in need here in the Santa Fe area, without the time-consuming effort we all associate with fundraising.
Our mission is to reach out and help our community by finding at least 100 or more women to each contribute $100 four times a year , that's $40,000+ annually, to local charities. All charities and organizations up for consideration must be in the Santa Fe area. The idea is to keep it local and have an impact that we can see in our community. If $100 is too steep for you each time, bring a friend or friends and join as a team.
This group is perfect for you if:
- you want 100% of your donations to go directly to a local charity in your community
- you don't have time in your busy life for a consistent volunteer commitment
- you want to be part of creating a powerful new group that will make an immediate, direct and positive impact on your community
Become one of the 100+ Women Who Care in Santa Fe and be a part of something wonderful!
To date, we have raised $73,050 for charities in the Santa Fe area! Look what a great group of generous and thoughtful women can do when they put their minds to it!

Friday, Apr 13
A preview of "A Southern Exposure" will run from April 13 to April 30 at Bunbury Theater. This comedy-drama, set in a small town in present-day Kentucky, is the story of Callie Belle Hurt, whose idea of love is so unrealistic it could be lifted from the pages of a romance novel. Raised by Hattie, her cantankerous, Bible-thumping grandmother with a cast-iron will and her two eccentric, doting aunts, Callie belle stuns her family when she announces that she has fallen in love and is moving to New York to live with her boyfriend. Upon Callie's return home she discovers terrible news about her grandmother. A new relationship is forged; one built on acceptance, friendship, and the fiercest kind of love.
Date & Time:
Friday, April 13, 2012 - 7:30pm to Monday, April 30, 2012 - 2:00pm

Construction workers are busy across Salem and Keizer repairing 26 schools this summer.
When parents drop students off for the first day of school in September, the outsides of many buildings will have fresh coats of paint, repaired exterior walls, fixed roofs and parking lots. Inside, the schools will have repaired floors, ceilings, plumbing, heating/cooling and venilation systems.
View a photo gallery on Flickr »
The repair work means 14 school campuses are closed for the summer, and office staff at those schools are in temporary summer locations.
About Bond Construction
The improvements to Salem-Keizer schools are funded through the $242.1 million construction bond approved by the community in 2008.
Bond funds invested in our schools help create safer, cleaner, less-crowded learning environments for students. Thank you, Salem-Keizer community for supporting student learning and the 2008 bond measure.

Hi my project is in struts 2. We have written common js files for client side validation. now the problem is that to implement internalization we have to change alert message as per the language. so my question is that is there any way to access resource property in js file. or any one suggest some alternative or example for the same.
You can write a JSON file with the native English language as key and L10N message as the value, and use AJAX to load the related JSON depending on user's browser language configuration, and alert the message with alert(tanslatedTable[USER_LANG][ENGLISH_STRING])
Store the alert messages in js files with file names like
alert_en.js alert_fr.js alert_jp.js
In each file store the alerts like this
Include file as per the user languages.
You can load messages from the resource bundle using a JSP file and link in your page like this.
In this JSP file you output JavaScript after reading from resource bundle.
Check this also.
I do this in my javascript within script tags on the jsp pages :
Works fine for me.
You can read properties file in js file using messageResource.js library created by me.
1) Include messageResource.js in your html.
2) You can access key-value pair of properties file from js as follows.

Cherie Young, Design Consultant
I love my job! California Closets allows me to meet wonderful people and help bring their dreams of the perfect space to life. Designing a functional and beautiful space that's well organized improves their efficiency. I hear all the time from clients how much this means to them in their busy lives
My clients cherish their homes but want more room for their "stuff." Often, we find opportunities, not just in the master bedroom, but also for a "mudroom" or more organization in their pantry, their garage, or other spaces. By working together, we can get creative and solve problems they hadn't recognized.
It's very rewarding being more to a client than just a sales person. I've made many friends with whom I'm sure I'll have long and lasting relationships, helping them with solutions for their "growing pains," as their children grow and as their needs evolve.
I listen and understand my clients "hot spots" – those aggravating things like "no place for my shoes," or "my sweaters are stacked 10 deep and always fall or look a mess!" The good news is that most closets I see have lots of potential, especially the ones with the wire shelves (which are sometimes sitting on the floor or falling out of the wall). We make a great team because the folks at California Closets work together providing excellent product and customer service. My customers love the way they feel with a California Closet; calmer, special and elegant. Let me make your perfect space dreams come true for you!

Trying these for a change as I usually buy the regular Frownies. Verdict on these new Gentle Lifts? So far so good!
Complete waste of my money
if it looks better great it did for a short time
It's early days but so far the results are looking good, just hope they keep on improving. Much better that the brown paper patches.
First time I have used them & as yet not significant results, but maybe in time.
I've used this product before and I love them they do work and are small enough not to get in the way or be uncomfortable. You can use each one more than once but obviously on clean dry skin.they are easy to remove too which is gentle on your skin.I will continue to use them, my secret helper!
Have only used on three occasions as the frownie stretched the line, which didn't last, but also left a further curved indent on my skin where the frownie ended.
Happy with Product , web page and delivery
Quick delivery, excellent service
I'm a big fan of regular Frownies but I don't think these are anywhere near as effective. I shall persevere and maybe will revise my opinion!
1st website and fast delivery.
It's the first time I have tried this particular Frownie item and I love the self adhesive idea and it fixes to the skin more securely
Great delivery service

2005 Dodge Caravan Q&A
2005 Dodge Caravan Question: Dead Instrument Panel
My instrument panel has gone dead. The back lights work and I can see what is on the panel at night, but the gas guage, the speedometer, the odometer, the temperature guage, turn signals, and horn don't work. I've checked what fuses I can find to work, and all the relays seem to be working. I disconnected the battery and let the car sit for 2 hours and reconnected to see if it was a computer problem that would reset. Any idea as to what else it might be? - snickels
Answer 1
I have the same problem, sometimes it works sometimes it dont. My mechanic said it is the speedo cluster. You can possibly get one at the junk yard for $20 to $40. I would try to find a friend to put it in for you. A shop that I wont name wanted $250.00, they gave me some line about it not running right so they would have to electrically set the trany bla bla bla. They were full of it. Hope this helps you good luck. - Visitor

A complement test uses a blood sample to detect a group of proteins
that help the body attack foreign substances.
When there are a lot of foreign substances in the body, such as
bacteria or viruses, a low level of complement means the body is trying to get
rid of the foreign substances. If the body is attacking its own tissues instead
of foreign substances (as in
autoimmune diseases such as
lupus), a low level of complement may mean that the
body is attacking and damaging tissues such as the kidneys.
The complement test can be repeated at regular intervals. This helps monitor the progress of the disease.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 8/24/12
San Diego first-round draft pick Melvin Ingram left the Chargers' preseason game against Minnesota because of a bruised left thigh. The 18th overall draft pick out of South Carolina went down late in the third quarter Friday night while rushing the passer. He crumpled to the turf and was in noticeable pain as he was helped off the field by two trainers. The Chargers announced he would not return with the thigh injury. The Chargers were last in the league in third-down defense last season, so they drafted Ingram with their first pick in hopes of bolstering their pass rush to help them get off the field in those situations. Ingram had 10 sacks as a senior defensive end. He is being moved to linebacker in the 3-4 defense.

Here is my basic diagnosis:
How far are you from your router? Do you have anything blocking your invisible signal? Ex. Walls
Wifi is great, but an ethernet is still optimal for the best internet speeds. You basically have 3 options:
1. If you are relatively close to your router , and don't have walls blocking your signal, you could buy a wireless extender ($50-110)
2. If you are far from your router and/or have walls blocking your signal, connect an ethernet cord ($20-i just bought 50FT)
3.If you can move your router closer to the computer great, if you want faster internet connect an ethernet (free to 10$)

The truth is that America as an exceptional nation is not a birthright to gloat upon, but a legacy to be lived up to—and lately we've been failing miserably.
For most Irish people at home, the day remained primarily religious into the 20th century. The elite of Irish society did mark the day with a grand ball in Dublin Castle each year in the second half of the 19th century. But for the public at large, it was a quiet day with no parades or public events. The day wasn't even a public holiday in Ireland until 1904.

Sharrock's insight:
A way to explore stereotypes and being American. Teachers can explore these issues to attack immigration, ethnicity, perspective, and more.
Seth Dixon's curator insight, April 1, 9:06 PM
This comedian doesn't just get laughs; he uses stand-up as a platform for discussing important social issues and to foster greater cultural understanding. His big goal is to break stereotypical perspectives of Muslims and Middle Easterners by showing that "there are good people everywhere." Here is another of his entertaining and educational TED talks.
Tags: Middle East, TED, globalization, culture, Islam.
Jacob Conklin's curator insight, May 6, 4:18 PM
While Maz uses humor to highlight stereotypes that face Iranians and Iranian americans, he still gets his point across. As is human nature, we form prejudices based on often unfair generalizations of a larger group and attach them to individuals. While Americans are very guilty of this, Maz talks about a time when he was in the middle east and was treated differently because his American passport says he was born in Iran. He may be an American citizen, but he was born in Iran, and that is all that it took for a customs agent to stop him and begin asking him questions about his parents and grandparents. People are always too quick to generalize and assume that people who are born in an area are like everyone else in that area. It is a sad reality and unfortunately, due to human nature, will not change.

The video is an example as how anything can be used to help break stereotypes all you have to do is try.

How to Recover From Burnout at Work - The Muse: You're exhausted and ready to throw in the towe...
Sharrock's insight:
Links to resources and information
From job-burnout
Burnout is a process that develops in stages over several weeks or months – even years. One of the best-known multi-stage models was developed by a psychologist Herbert Freudenberger, who was also the first to describe the term "burnout" in 1974 as "a state of mental and physical exhaustion caused by one's professional life", "a desease of over-commitment". At each of burnout phases, different physiological and psychological symptoms and consequences are described.

Avicenna (/ˌævɨˈsɛnə/; Latinate form of Ibn-Sīnā (Persian: پور سینا / ابن سینا; Arabic: ابن سینا), full name Abū ʿAlī al-Ḥusayn ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Sīnā[4] (Arabic: أبو علي الحسين ابن عبد الله ابن سينا; c. 980 – June 1037) was a Persian[5][6][7][8] polymath and jurist who is regarded as one of the most significant thinkers and writers of the Islamic Golden Age.[9] Of the 450 works he is known to have written, around 240 have survived, including 150 on philosophy and 40 on medicine.[10]
His most famous works are The Book of Healing – a philosophical and scientific encyclopedia, and The Canon of Medicine – a medical encyclopedia.[11][12][13] which became a standard medical text at many medieval universities[14] and remained in use as late as 1650.[15] in 1973, Avicenna's Canon Of Medicine reprinted in New York.[16]
Besides philosophy and medicine, Avicenna's corpus includes writings on astronomy, alchemy, geography and geology, psychology, Islamic theology, logic, mathematics, physics and poetry.[17]
Sharrock's insight:
"Correspondence between Ibn Sina (with his student Ahmad ibn 'Ali al-Ma'sumi) and Abū Rayhān al-Bīrūnī has survived in which they debated Aristotelian natural philosophy and the Peripatetic school. Abu Rayhan began by asking Avicenna eighteen questions, ten of which were criticisms of Aristotle's On the Heavens.[40]"

Sharrock's insight:
"The Grameen Danone model was unique: saleswomen would sell yoghurt in remote areas with few shops or refrigerators in single units, and these women earned a commission for each unit of yoghurt sold. Demand spiked, and eventually, a low-cost production facility to develop different types of yoghurt with essential nutrients was opened." ( Excerpt )

Immigrants tended to be young and male, so they made up a significant share of the military-age population. But even after accounting for that, they enlisted above their quota. Labor was in short supply and many immigrants left paying jobs to fight for the Union, enlisting long before the draft—and the bounties—were even introduced. They volunteered, they fought, and they sacrificed far beyond what might be expected of strangers in a strange land. The zeal with which immigrant soldiers embraced the Union cause stands in stark contrast to the dissatisfaction among the ranks of immigrant soldiers in the nation's previous war, against Mexico, when these troops abandoned the field in droves, and some Irish units famously switched sides.
If you don't know the story of "Everything Is Illuminated," it's as beautiful as it is innovative and touching as it is charming (featuring an overarching tone that's perhaps summed up by a quote from the text: "Humor is the only truthful way to tell a sad story.") The plot of the book exists on several different planes: one that sees "the hero" of the novel (also named Jonathan Safran Foer) journeying to Ukraine to find a woman who may have saved his grandfather from the Nazis, one comprised of letters from Foer's translator, Alexander, to him and one that begins in the year 1791 and continues throughout history describing the past of the Ukrainian city, Trachimbrod.

Sharrock's curator insight, June 22, 12:48 PM
(excerpt from Wikipedia)
"The Hang (German pronunciation: [haŋ],[1] plural form: Hanghang[2]) is a musical instrument in the idiophone class created by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer in Bern, Switzerland. The name of their company is PANArt Hangbau AG.[3] The Hang is sometimes referred to as a hang drum, but the inventors consider this a misnomer and strongly discourage its use.[4]
The instrument is constructed from two half-shells of deep drawn, nitrided steel sheet[5][6] glued together at the rim leaving the inside hollow and creating a distinct 'UFO shape'. The top ("Ding") side has a center 'note' hammered into it and seven or eight 'tone fields' hammered around the center. The bottom ("Gu") is a plain surface that has a rolled hole in the center with a tuned note that can be created when the rim is struck.
The Hang uses some of the same basic physical principles as a steelpan, but modified in such a way as to act as a Helmholtz resonator.[7][8] The creation of the Hang was the result of many years of research on the steelpan and other instruments.[9] The inventors of the Hang have continued to refine the shape and materials and have produced several variations over the years.
The name Hang comes from the Bernese German word for hand. It is a registered trademark and property of PANArt Hangbau AG.[10]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hang_(instrument)
What are Excitabilities? One of the key concepts of Polish psychiatrist and psychologist Kazimierz Dabrowski, MD, PhD (1902 – 1980) is that individuals with strong "overexcitabilities" are good candidates for higher level development. Stephanie Tolan, a writer and advocate for extremely bright children, notes the original Polish word for psychiatrist Dabrowski's concept of overexcitabilities or …
But they also note that many people may not welcome such traits: "Unfortunately, the stronger these overexcitabilities are, the less peers and teachers welcome them."
