OMFG dude reading this made my day, I am so glad you posted this.

Seeing this pic of the billiboard made my jaw drop lol:

I saved it, its really meaningful to me too. I think its a Double synchronicity, double meaning here, it could be taken literal as reading the Gospel of Mathew in the bible, or you could interpret it as the sign saying this Bible is Matt’s Gospel, meaning not just the one chapter, but All the big teachings from God. So cool my friend! I love the persoanlized stamp on the back of your work advertising, further confirmation.

I absolutely love these synchronicities, I may be even more jazzed up over them than you are. I am beaming, smiling big, such a powerful signs from God!

“You can not be out of place as long as this awareness is with you”

Are you sure that wasnt written by the Buddha? :wink: :heart_eyes:

AMEN

Had trouble ready the letter, but caught he references to Michael. Was was he saying in it? What is his wife making for your dog?

Me too, figuratively. Having the billboard pop up while I was researching Archangel Michael in depth, and having just found out about Jehovah Witnesses belief that he is Jesus during that time made me feel like I was heading down the right path and asking the right questions. It motivated mynresearch and fueled the excitement I expressed in my letter to Kenneth and Claudette.

The timing of it all, my workplace being on the other side and the location being next to where that transformer blew (I think about that ever time I pass the transformer) made it all very special to me and I’m glad I have been able to document these events in a fashion that allows others to experience these synchronicities the way I did.

I was pretty excited for these. When I shared the events with the people around me though my attitude was quickly tempered. My wife is always worried about my mania so she is hesitant to acknowledge any synchronicities. My mom has become accustomed to them at this point so I think we tend to acknowledge them, try to extract the teachings and remember the events surrounding the synchronicities then return to a baseline. There are some synchronicities, like these though that will stay with me for a very long time, and now my mom too :smiling_face:… what are the chances she would send me a text at 9:11 when I referenced it in the dashcam video section of the post.

Me too, I had to sit down and put some time into reading it. I don’t remember everything from the letter and I have not yet wrote back because I don’t feel the time is right. I have to put time into researching and understanding the passages that were recommended before I start my letter back.

I’m not quite sure what Claudette said she’d make but it has something to do with sewing. Will post it when it comes in the mail.

I agree 100%. Its big confirmation.

I just learned to keep my mouth shut around people who I know will either judge it, or not be open to hearing about it. When it comes to your wife,sometimes it is helpful to have someone who loves you test your theisis, especillay if she knows the mania might prejudice your views. That being said sychronicities are hugely subjective, no one else can feel them the way you do, and only you are able to truely know if it is a sy

Lol, Let me grab a calculator:

my Maths may be off but i think its:

1/ (2x12x60)=
1/1440 =
.000694 =
.0694%

So you have a .0694% chance of picking that time if chosen at random. Not good betting odds. Very very very low probability.

Sure, I held off on responding to this right away because I wanted to do some digging to try and find this experience in my journal, but it must have taken place before I began keeping one. I remember the event vividly, though, and as it was not very long, I should be able to recall the details quite well. The only part that is hazy is the week leading up to it. I remember there were many world events and personal issues that had put me into a depressive state.

These events came to a head, and I remember being very upset, crying as I sat next to my bed. I was feeling a surge of suffering, mine and others’, and in my mind, there was a simple solution to put an end to all suffering - a black hole. I believe there is more to existence than the physical plane. It seemed like a rapid solution to return all beings to a higher plane of existence, and to provide a fresh start with lessons learned.

After laying down, I attempted to fall asleep, but after tossing and turning for awhile, I rearranged my bed to meditate. I must have slipped into a sleep state because I felt an intensely powerful pull towards the sky, and then a dream rapidly formed. I was on the ground, looking up at the sky. I saw Jesus floating to the left, gesturing towards a black hole. I flew inside it excitedly(for reasons later explained), and upon entering, I found myself in a descending elevator. I could see separated levels opposite me. As the elevator descended, I began to see beasts forming across from me, so I flew upwards to escape them.

That’s when I saw a room that was brightly lit. I flew inside, there were two kids playing an old Pac-Man style arcade game with joysticks. There were games all around us and a single corridor. I had the thought that everything was a simulation and should not be taken so seriously. After this realization, I started looking around the room, then noticed the kids had stopped playing. They started running towards the corridor, reaching behind them with their hands extended to me, urging me to follow. As I flew behind them, I could feel the dream beginning to fade. Realizing the dream was unstable and ready to collapse, I apologized to the kids and told them I couldn’t follow them. I woke up shortly after, dismissing it as a cool dream, but looking back, I believe it was more significant. This dream encompassed elements of Jesus, heavenly and hellish realms as well as the concept of simulation theory / illusory form - all within a short span of time.

The black hole, even though it may seem ominous to some, was a thrill for me. I had been trying to create black holes in my dreamscapes for a while prior to this experience without success. My goal at the time was to experience an event horizon. Feel the sensation of being pulled into a black hole and observe an entire dreamscape be dismantled by one. I was always unsuccessful and I had tried in a few dreams to accomplish this. The one in the sky in my dream with Jesus was massive, though it lacked the usual characteristics of a traditional black hole.

Since that dream, I was able to transform an entire dreamscape into a black hole so that one got checked off my list a while ago. In the dream where I made one, I kept running and jumping to platforms I’d make along the edge of the event horizon. This dream was an absolute blast.

It’s worth noting that at the time, my only experience with dream control was through lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming and dream yoga approach the realm of dreams quite differently. Since discovering dream yoga, my beliefs align significantly more with dream yoga than with lucid dreaming.

Love that you did the math. Odds were even lower than I thought :smiling_face:. 69 to boot. I always tell people God’s a comedian and say that is his favorite number lol.

I think it has great significance. Not sure what it means though. But the fact that such a powerful dream hit you during a time when you were feeling low, and helped pick you up, seems like exactly the kind of healing that Christ did.

With the Heaven & Hell realms, it may be that the Arcade (everythings a simulation/illusion) was possibly representing the Earth realm, or middle world, between heaven and hell. People are addicted to Samsaras, like kids are addicted to video games and arcades.

Lol, I was curious just how rare of an event. Turns out, its extremely rare.

To put it in perspective, playing Craps and betting with the casino, you have a .52 or 52% probability of winning, that 749 times greater a chance of winning, than your 1440 to 1 odds.

Was waiting for the right time to share this clip from David. I wanted to share because I thought it was cool that he was talking about death and laying aside the body when Andrew started doing the book study on Preparing to Die. Seems to be a theme going on.

Worth a listen. I linked it right to the main spot where he discusses it:

The reason for this post is the following… the billboard from my above post was taken down. At this point the novelty is worn off, so I didn’t mind much.

Then on my way to work I saw this one pop up.

The kicker? On the other side is the same billboard advertising my workplace that was just taken down at the other spot :smiling_face:.

Guess I have one more month of enjoying that synchronicity.

Great video, glad you posted that and the pic because it reminded me of a quote an Uber driver gave me over the weekend:

(he said his favorite quote was Phillippians 1:21)

Will include the full passage here:

"1 Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

4 Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,

5 For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;

6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

7 Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.

8 For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.

9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

10 That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ.

11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

12 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

13 So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;

14 And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.

23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:

24 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;

26 That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.

27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

28 And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

30 Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me"

Not sure I fully grasp what is being said here, but the part about being in chains for Christ, really resonated with me. I was thinking earlier in the day how there are many people who see those with strong religious or spiritual convictions as being weak, and thus easy to take advantage of becuase of their compassionate hearts and desire to help those in need. I also think they see retaliation or revenge as being less likely for negative transgressions, so they can walk all over people of faith, with no consequences:

the old parable, ‘when your enemy slaps your face, give him your other cheek’

The thought came to me that, unlike the bible beaters in some places, how much safer it was to not let anyone know you follow the laws of God, or any religion. Your behavior is chained in a way, were as the monsters lurking about have complete free will, and lick thier chops when they see sheep of Christs herd.

Dude this shit is crazy!

Please tell me you listened to the sign and read Matthews Gospel?

If not, what the hell are you waiting for?!?!? A blimp with the message to crash into your house?!?!

If you have read the Gospel of Matthew a few times and nothing stands out to you, or nothing really resonated with you may the message is more cryptic like I was saying before, maybe it wants you to read the Holy Book that has resonated with you the most up to this point?:Your [Matthews] Gospel:
A Course In Miracles?

Have you read it recently cover to cover?

Maybe every night, or day for the next month or a week, you spend 5min flipping randomly to a spot in ACIM, and read that page, or a few pages, and see if that message hits home.

You can do the same thing with the Bible too, or any orther Holy text.

Pretty amazing double synchronicity! The fact that Jesus has made an apperance in your dreams recently is really something to take note of as well.

According to ACIM, who is Jesus REALLY?

“The kingdom of God is within you ALL”

@mbready if you havent read this Gospel of Matthew yet you really have to check it out!!! You got me reading it now and it is fucking amazing!

Chapter one is really boring, as it goes throught the bloodlines but at the end is a very powerful section that I think will hit home with you:

Joeseph was planning on divorcing, leaving his wife after he found out about her pregnancy (wouldnt you?!?!)

It was a premontion dream from God (an angel/messenger of God) that convinced him to stay by Mary’s side:

" 20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS."

Dreams are only mentioned in the bible about 20 times. This one, like the Pharohs dream whom the other Joseph interpreted correctly, is well worth paying attention to.

And if the first chapter did not wow you, it gets so much better, buckle up buckeroo, I think your really going ot enjoy this ride :cowboy_hat_face: :innocent: :cowboy_hat_face: :innocent: :cowboy_hat_face: :innocent:

Yes but it has been awhile. My preferred method to go through ACIM is listening using a single earbud. More specifically, listening while you are walking around, doing your day to day activities and interacting with the world. The miracles that appeared for me is what shattered my previous beliefs about waking reality. It was like the holy spirit and Jesus were narrating things that would happen (I leave out God on purpose because in ACIM it states God has and will never acknowledge this illusion because God knows no suffering, it says the instant the illusion was created the solution was finished for him because he knows no suffering - his solution was the holy spirit and Jesus and it is only his children who experience the solution because it is of their creation - it also states that his children are able to create worlds and the reason for allowing such creations is free will - it also says when his children decide to begin communicating with him there is nothing within the creation that can interfere with their communication because it is God’s will to always communicate with his children). There were so many miracles that appeared while I was listening to ACIM it shook me to my core and hooked me on the spiritual path.

At this point I’ve listened to the entire book at least 3 times. I think I’ll start again. Good idea.

I have read Matthew’s Gospel in the past but I’ve been putting it off. I specifically want to read the sections Kenneth and Claudette recommended in their letter. The section is not that long so I’ll have a listen to it again. Lots of readings available on YouTube.

I seriously think some one is messing with me with the billboards :smiling_face:. Like some super secret synchronicity planner trying to steer my thoughts. It seems too much to be true. It is hard to explain but there has been events in my life that lead me to this concept which is why I even hesitate on reading based off the recommendation of a billboard.

Me too. Thats when you know you have caught the ‘scent’ of something big.

I would start from the beginning if I were you, the first 3-4 chapters are a little dry, but still have some powerful gems in them. I read up to chapter 5 last night and thats when the avalanche of ‘treasusre’ began. I dont think you will be disappointed.

The fact that you have been putting it off, and the double synchronicity makes me believe this is very important for you to do. And since you have read ACIM 3x, maybe try to do the Gospel of Mathew 3x as well?

Not SOME ONE, but some THING, or NO-THING. :sunglasses: :innocent: :sunglasses: :innocent: :sunglasses: :innocent:

God works in mysterious ways my friend, but in this case ‘He’ seems to be making the messgae pretty obvious.

Thank you for making me read the Gospel of Matthew with a fine toothed comb, so much richness in its deapths!

I wasn’t going to add another picture to this, but I think I will now, the billboard moved to another spot on my ride home. Same thing front and back :smiling_face:.

Third billboard that has this synchronicity.

The thing about who Jesus is (Archangel Michael I.M.O.) and my workplace on the otherside. It is dark when I drive by the correct side so it is hard to get a good photo. I’ll see if I can get one after work tonight.

Strange how i saw the topic in the ‘Unread’ at the bottom of Discussion list and my awareness pulled me to open!

Know what you mean about “spell check”. I only have a phone and not a computer/laptop and the tiny space here for typing text one misses the typos! :laughing:


Ive not read them but i hear lots of people talk about the “Course In Miracles” books. Andrew Holecek says he read them.

:star2:
Funny… whilst searching for where i heard @Andrew talk about ACIM books i came across this interview and was drawn to his mention of TURIYA which i’ll tag in the topic.

@Bianca_Aga - Good morning - hope you are well and happy today! Yes - this one - I have been feeling like I would like to follow the course in miracles one day - Nuts Miracles has an ‘a’ that was the letter messing me up - I am feeling a little bit like I have a lot of emotions to process today - I have a shit load of dreams I remembered last night and my 2 closest people also had big dreaming last night - Mom was dreaming about lots of salads - mmmmmmmmm… I actually had my dreaming mind suggest that I need to build a beeswax mouth piece for my didgeridoo… I am impressed that you do these boards on your phone - I am still kind of confused about how to respond and the way the conversations get divvied up confuse me still not sure who is talking to who and a little worried about how to converse polite… Beautiful awareness… Much love - Peaceful Happiness - enjoy your day…

Good morning @JudithJ i see you are in the time zone of @_Barry which is somewhere in USA. Im in Scotland 5 hours ahead and its nearly dark but fortunately its been a beautiful sunny day.

That is good that you’re able to recognize that you’re processing for transmuting. You are your best guide. If you can write your dreams down, you may find whilst writing them down you’ll have “ah ha” moments of understanding what your dreams are showing you.

:joy: in my dream language, when there is “lots” of something, it means important.
Lettuce means Let us see

It will come in time :star_struck: You seem to be managing here. Baby steps.

Yes it can be confusing and guess work. Its why i try to start with the persons name or add their @… name in a conversation.
After a while I’m sure you’ll get the hang of it. At least like my small space to write, its a lesson in patients :smiling_face:

i think you mean the Topics. Each one in the Discussion list has been created by the 1st person who posted it.
For example. I created TURIYA and Mantras That Move You.

Try not to worry @JudithJ … :orange_heart: we here im sure like to help if can, and i tend to use emojis :wink::hugs::star_struck: etc to lighten the chat. You can always ask me if you need some information with anything and
@BlessingsDeers i know also.

Very kind thank you. Much :orange_heart: to you too.
