Betrayal and Spirituality
I’ve been off of this channel for a while. I’m going through what feels like the most painful experience of my life right now, and I’m looking for some spiritual advice. I wake up every morning thinking about the betrayal and heartbreak, and my first thought is often, “I just want to wake up from this nightmare.” I haven’t been able to work properly, and this has been affecting me enormously. My life feels completely shattered. My best friend Matt and I have been close for 17 years. I trusted him with my life. He had been there for me through previous betrayals and had actually helped me heal from them, so I never imagined that he could be the person who would hurt me this way. I was in a relationship with Vanessa for about five years. It was a very deep, loving relationship, but also very unstable and painful at times. There was a strong push-pull dynamic. She told me many times that she loved me, that I was the only one, that she wanted to marry me and have children with me, and that she couldn’t stay away from me. We had many genuinely happy moments together. I have pictures of us laughing and being happy together that are very difficult to look at now. I was also there for Vanessa through some of the lowest periods of her life. I supported her when she was in the hospital for her mental health and when she was struggling. I believed in her and saw potential in her even when she was at her lowest. Eventually she ended the relationship and told me it was unhealthy for her and that she didn’t want to get back together. I struggled a lot with letting go because I still loved her and had hoped we could eventually work things out. I’ve been trying to work on myself, especially around attachment, my emotional reactions, meditation, surrender, and trusting God/the universe rather than trying to control outcomes. After our breakup, Matt needed a place to stay because of his work situation. He asked if it would be okay for him to stay with Vanessa for a maximum of three months. I said yes because I trusted him completely. He was my buddy and needed somewhere to stay. Her place was much closer to his work than mine, so it made sense. I also secretly hoped that having my best friend there might somehow help Vanessa and me find our way back to each other.

This book has probably given me more clarity about relationships than anything else I’ve read. It really gets underneath all the usual relationship drama and helps you see the deeper patterns behind why we suffer so much in love.
If God Is unconditional love, what does Jesus Mean by “No one comes to the Father except through me”?
I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I’m genuinely interested in other peoples opinions on this. If God is unconditional love, and Jesus teaches love, forgiveness, compassion, and mercy, how do we take his statement, “No one comes to the Father except through me”? If salvation requires believing that Jesus is God and accepting Christ as our lord and savior, what about people who are born into other cultures or never knew about Christ? God already knows where and when every person will be born. The religion we are steered towards is typically circumstantial. If we were born in a Muslim culture, we are more likely to have a Muslim faith. This is the case for all religions. Did he die only for those who would eventually believe in him? Would his sacrifice be in vain for the majority of people who lived and died without ever believing in Christianity? If God is all knowing, then he would know that most of civilization would not believe this. Wouldn’t that make his love and grace conditional? If God is truly unconditional love, then why would he want his children to suffer for eternity or simply not exist at all, just for their belief? Why would he make someone who genuinely loves God and genuinely loves others, burn or cease to exist? Why did Jesus die for us if belief in Christ and accepting him into our hearts is the condition of being saved? That doesn’t make sense to me or align with love. A pastor and many others have said that God doesn’t send us to Hell, but instead it is us who choose to do so by not believing in him and accepting Jesus into our hearts as our lord and savior. He stated that we reject God and are separated from him by not having faith. He said God is a jealous God, but isn’t jealousy a lower vibration? From what I understand, jealousy doesn’t come from love. I can’t buy into this argument. I would never send my kids to eternal torture or have them cease to exist, simply because of a belief. I’m sure many people would feel the same way. How can we be more merciful than our creator?

I’m personally convinced that the Bible is largely a collection of allegories, symbols, archetypes and metaphorical teachings rather than something that was ever meant to be read as literal history. That also changes the way I see Jesus. To me, Jesus represents what is often called Christ Consciousness, a state of consciousness that exists as a possibility within every human being. So when Jesus says that no one comes to the Father except through him, I don’t understand that as, “You have to believe in me as a person or you are excluded from God.” I see it more as: you reach the Father through Christ Consciousness. You have to discover that state within yourself. The temple is within you. I see God more as the consciousness behind everything, the consciousness that runs through existence itself. Enlightenment, union with God, returning to the Father, whatever words you want to use for it, is ultimately about becoming aware of that reality. And this is also where I struggle with the idea that simply believing in Jesus somehow makes someone a good person. It doesn’t. You can read the Bible every day, call yourself Christian, worship Jesus, talk constantly about how religious you are and still treat people like shit. You can judge people, hurt them, look down on them and behave in ways that have very little to do with what Jesus supposedly stood for. Belief alone doesn’t change your character. But if you actually awaken that Christ Consciousness within yourself, if you genuinely discover that unconditional love toward life and toward other beings, then something changes on a completely different level. At that point, you don’t constantly have to ask yourself, “What would Jesus do?” You naturally start embodying those qualities. You become less capable of deliberately hurting people. You stop needing to place yourself above others. Hatred, cruelty, resentment and that constant urge to judge other people start losing their grip on you. And in that sense, you’re not just believing in Jesus anymore. You’re embodying what Jesus represents. To me, that is much closer to what “following Jesus” actually means than simply declaring that you believe in him.
Struggling to meditate and quiet your mind? This might actually help.
I’ve been mostly bedridden for the past six years because of physical health issues, and throughout all that time I’ve been trying to find ways to calm my body and my mind enough to cope with the pain. And trust me, I’ve tried pretty much everything. Different kinds of meditation, binaural beats, frequencies, Solfeggio frequencies, breathwork, you name it. Some things were interesting, but nothing ever really made a noticeable difference. Then recently I stumbled across the Gateway Project, which led me down the Monroe Institute rabbit hole and I discovered their Expand app, which uses their signature audio technology and different sound-based exercises designed to help you relax, meditate and explore different states of consciousness. I honestly downloaded it thinking, “Yeah, this will probably be just another thing that does absolutely nothing for me.” Well… I was VERY wrong. 😂 I’m genuinely blown away by it. If you’re someone who struggles with meditation, can’t get your mind to shut the f up, finds it hard to deeply relax, or is curious about altered states of consciousness but never really manages to get there, I seriously recommend giving this app a try. There’s premium content (not that expensive actually), and there’s also quite a bit available for free, and honestly, the free sessions alone were enough to completely win me over. I’ve tried so much stuff over the years that I’m usually pretty sceptical when I come across something new, but this one has genuinely surprised me. ✨🫶🏼✨ https://apps.apple.com/de/app/expand-beyond-meditation/id1552705313

@Erhard H. My favourites so far are “relaxation & healing” in the “timer soundscapes” section and the “twinsleep sleep support” in the “sleep & dreaming” section. My focus was on calming down and better sleep. And they work so well for me. It’s the first time in years that I fall asleep right after listening without spending hours tossing and turning. And most important, I fell fresh and relaxed in the morning after waking up with some kind of baseline calmness. Even though I’m still in pain, but my body gets a totally different kind of relaxation and relief. Sure, send it over. Of course I’m interested how the final chapter turned out. Did I get help? A few things have changed on the social side, which has brought a bit more calm and stability into the whole situation. But on the other hand it also brought up some new existential questions in the long term. Health-wise though, or when it comes to my physical issues, there haven’t really been any major changes. But thanks for asking.

@Steve Markham I was blown away because I’ve tried quite a few different things before that were supposed to get me into a calmer or altered state of consciousness, but what feels really different about these meditations and soundscapes is the level of physical relaxation combined with this incredible mental clarity. It hasn’t helped in the sense that my pain is suddenly gone or that my physical problems are somehow getting better. My body is still pretty fucked, and I can still feel the pain and all the physical stuff that’s going on. But somehow, despite all of that, these sessions create such a deep sense of calm, relief and physical relaxation that I honestly haven’t found anywhere else. And I think that’s especially significant when you’re dealing with chronic physical pain. It can be incredibly hard to really let go or shift your state of mind because your body is constantly demanding your attention. You feel it all the time. There’s always pain, tension or some physical sensation pulling your awareness back into your body. If your body is relatively comfortable, it’s obviously much easier to meditate and let your mind drift somewhere else. When your body is constantly sending distress signals, that becomes a completely different challenge. With these sounds though, I genuinely don’t know what kind of magic they’re doing, but out of everything I’ve tried so far, this is the first thing that has brought me into such a profound state of physical relaxation. The pain is still there, but somehow this enormous sense of calm and ease almost sits on top of it. It doesn’t erase what’s happening physically, but it changes how dominant it feels. And that finally allows my mind to completely let go as well. The best way I can describe it is almost like floating in this soft cloud of complete stillness and relaxation, where both your body and your mind can finally switch off for a while. It’s honestly a state I’ve never experienced quite like this before.

Hey there, friends. I HAVE RETURNED. 🐵 I'll be re-aliving the spiritual rebels community and be bringing more people here shortly. I'll be adding exclusive content and live calls soon for those who want to be in the inner circle 😉 That being said, I'll need some admins to help keep the community clean and get rid of the bots and occasionally low-quality content. Also to accept new members into the community. I had some of you as admins before, so if you'd like to be considered, comment below. The more active you are, the more likely I will be to accept you. Also, i'd encourage you to share some topics you'd be interested in hearing more about 🙏

Who are you, when nobody is watching? No audience? No applause? What remains when everything you’ve learned, imagined, and performed falls away?
