Convention Distances: Jamaica

by jw07 in

for the past few years conventions in eastern jamaica have been held at a cricket stadium, in the capital city, known as sabina park.

this venue is a central location for the bulk of the attendees who make it there from the capital kingston, as well as the adjoining areas of portmore and spanish town.

yeah, that's where jws are concentrated, as well as their non-jw friends, work mates and family who they coerce into attendance.

Thanks for the story jw07, I'm so glad I'm out. Over here, they are building a new convention venue in the north that will replace a worldly venue in the middle of our country. From where I live, the distance would be more than double, but they won't get my time or money anyway, so I don't give a shit! Another alternative would be a convention in our southern neighbor country, but again...NOT FOR ME ANYMORE! I feel so sorry for all the WT drones that already kept their life <$imple and the families with little children that will go through hell because of all the extra efforts and the pressure to go and be fed by the slave .

At the past two meetings it has been announced that we need to get people to "not concentrate on the distance, but on the message instead. Helping them to focus on the prospect of living forever instead of how long it will take them to reach to the convention".

How naive! Deep in their hearts they know it doesn't work that way

spiritual crisis

by indi7 in

two years ago i had a kundalini experience.

i felt energy or chi pulsate through each of my chakras, from the base of the spine to the crown of the head, then back, after that i felt like a newborn for three days.

i felt like i was reborn spiritually and god gave me a new name - indi.

So many questions. I feel sorry for your struggle indi7, but... holy crap!! And I really thought I'd heard it all ...stumbled upon this full-blown-kundalini-awakening story on the net. You can't make this shit up:

Then it happened!
A bolt of lightning
Out of nowhere a megalithic wave of energy surged from the base of my spine up through the central core of my body and out through the crown of my head. A bolt of energetic 'lightning' sent my entire body into a huge convulsion (somewhat like you'd imagine if someone had died and been brought back to life with a paramedic defibrillator machine!). From lying in a relaxed position, my entire body tensed into the height of rigidity as I was thrown upwards and then immediately collapsing into a heap on the floor. It was as if every cell of my being had been fiercely squeezed out.
Clearly once was not enough - this happened seven times in rapid succession. Each time I'd experience a bolt of lightning from the base through to and beyond the crown accompanied with an involuntary convulsion, throughout my entire physical body. The last vestiges of the 'me' that I thought I was were being shattered, whilst my entire being was infused with universal life energy.
My world was shattered
It was totally exhausting! This event didn't come with a text book explanation so initially I felt major disorientation. It's not every day that you have seven 'lightning bolts' shoot through your body after all! It's not the type of thing that you learn about in high school. Before to the experience, I had no concept in my brain about kundalini energy. At the time, all I knew was that it was exceptionally powerful and a defining moment in the journey of my spiritual evolution.
My whole frame of relating to the world had been shattered again (it had happened once before in previous years during my Awakening, although the universe had deemed that I was not at that time ready for a full blown kundalini activation). My body felt peculiar. I struggled to understand that it had anything to do with 'me', unsure how I was able to move my limbs. When I did, I observed with astonished fascination as if it were the first time I'd been infused into a physical body! Gazing into the mirror in the bathroom was really puzzling. I didn't recognise my own image! In fact "Who are you?" was about the only sentence I could muster for a while.
Soul infusion
Over the next few weeks I encountered constant experiences of soul infusion and spiritual intensity. The journey took me through a myriad of different practicalities providing an first hand education into the intricacies of kundalini awareness.
On one day I would experience the left side of my body become infused with darkness, whilst the right side would be infused of the purest light. As I learned to embrace it all, the lessons came thick and fast. Without judgement, I would rise through each spiritual encounter as non-identified pure presence, turning each page of the cosmic library with lightning purpose.
On another day I would experience intertwining columns of light rise up my spine as the universe dissolved from around me. There would be intense surges of electrifying energy that served to show me any internal blockages within my bodily vehicles (of which I learned that we have quite a few).

Did I open the gate to the realm of demons?

this is what happened.

i had a sore tendon in my wrist.

i could work with it, but nevertheless the pain was there.

Twith > No its from "The Gate", a low budget 80s schlock horror film, a fav from days gone by

Hmm, probably too old and too cheap to be on netflix. lol Never heard of it, and boy, did I see a lot of 80's horror stuff (might explain my choice for the title of this topic)

OrphanCrow > I have known of people who went to a healer first - their pain disappeared but their undiagnosed cancer didn't.

I agree with you in the sense that pain has a function that should be traced back to the source, if possible. Doctors are trained for that. It would be very, very stupid to simply get rid of pain without proper medical care for let's say, some broken bone.

In Holland, we've had a notorious case of Jomanda, a spiritualist and healing medium who got in trouble after the death of actress Sylvia Millecam:

wiki: In 2001 Jomanda gave medical and spiritual advice to the popular Dutch actress Sylvia Millecam, who later died of cancer. In 2004 the Dutch Health Inspectorate filed suit against Jomanda claiming that she and three alternative therapists misled Millecam by claiming that the actress was merely suffering from an inflammation.

On the other hand, half the nation where I live thrives on pills and pain killers, it's an entire industry by itself which shows how much we are fighting symptoms instead of seeing through what is really going on. There's so much we still don't know. Both sides seem to have their limitations, maybe we will reach some widely accepted hybrid form some day, but hey, for now my healing lady saved me some paracetamol/acetaminophen

Hey Twitch, that 1st picture was exactly what appeared in the sky during my miraculous healing!!!! lol, no... like the picture though. Is it from Doom?

just fine, you wrote:

I don't think I can answer OC questions any better than I have

My impression too, but it wasn't up to me to make such a statement. Another intriguing detail that came to my mind was that my healer has diabetes. Only when her sugar is high, she uses pictures (including mine) to make the pain of others disappear from a distance. Her sugar then drops. Another indication that energy transfer is the main factor, and my healer clearly needs to take care of a good energy balance (she's 90 years old!).

It also reminds me of Jesus, who stated in Luke 8:46 that power went out of him. Clearly, some carpenters have "the gift" also.

Okay everyone, time for an update (for those who are interested), but first of all, thanks for all the replies.

Lisa Rose, incredible story (if true). I think we can't apply the placebo-effect to this dog, who didn't see that one coming! The healing happened fast en suddenly, I also assume there was too little time for the dog to suspect the healing stranger to be an off-duty vet or dog-whisperer

Anders Andersen, I read your link regarding phantom-pain. It's interesting to read that regarding the mirror technique, the site admits:

It is not obvious why this simple technique works

rebel8, I read this on your link:

Patients told they were getting a placebo still reported improvements at a much higher rate than patients who were not treated.

The outcome is fascinating and confirms what many of us already know... the mind can be very powerful, even (as the experiment shows) if we are fully aware of the placebo-effect. But, an improvement is what it is, an improvement. I went from pain to no pain within seconds, a 100% efficiency just by gently pressing my wrist! No crystal ball, no prayer, no questions about any of my personal views...just a human touch. This was no long term experiment with gradual improvement, this was some sort of on/off switch. Again, very effective.

This also brings me to two different views among the replies:

OrphanCrow > I think it is important to remember that the "gift" only works if the recipient of that "gift" accepts it. That gift is ineffective without a willing participant to receive it

just fine > The lady that I see says it doesn't matter if you believe her or not it works anyway.

I promised to ask my healing lady about it and Idid today. She confirmed what just fine wrote. No faith required.

Nevertheless OrphanCrow asked some additional questions, which haven't been answered yet by just fine.

It is to be expected that every healer, receiver and situation has its own "rules" and chemistry. So far, I'm very happy with all the stories and replies, thanks again. I hope to reach a balanced, non-superstitious view and certain things I can relate to.
