An attempt at making sense of what's going on in the world as humbly as I'm capable of PART 8

If I try to put my big issue with regards to modern spirituality and Christianity into words, it would sound something like this: I cannot deny that what many of the books within modern spirituality teach is true. Much of it is actually based on Hinduism from the beginning. A funny sidenote is that C.S. Lewis, the author of the Narnia books, in his theological books, said that the only valid religious choice for mature people, is between Christianity and Hinduism. Funny enough, Lewis also believed that everyone’s aim is to reach the same perfection as Christ, even if he didn’t believe that this would reach fruition during this lifetime. 

I have had many experiences with the chakra system, as well as the meridian system. I’ve also felt what Eckhart Tolle calls “the inner body”, which I would say probably is connected with the meridian system. 

I can furthermore not deny that the development in the world seems to follow the pattern predicted by those that speak of the Ascension Process. Neither can I deny that my personal experiences coincide with what others are reporting. For example, when someone says that there are heavy, burdensome energies affecting us, I tend to feel tired and sluggish as well and when the energies are light, i feel light and need less sleep. This has happened too many other times to be written off as coincidences, especially seen in the light of everything else that is going on. And as I’ve already mentioned, how I experience myself and the world has shifted in a way that is in line with what would be expected according to those that speak of the Ascension Process.

Yet furthermore, just like many others that report going through a spiritual awakening, I’ve awakened to my own shadow. I’ve started seeing one personal issue after the other in what appears to be an endless stream. Destructive habits, attitudes and beliefs that have been there all along, but which I’ve been blind to until I started to awaken. These habits, attitudes and beliefs are now suddenly blatantly obvious and causing problems in my life that I cannot ignore. Problems that get worse and worse until I deal with then. And yet, consistent with what other people are reporting, I also become more and more able to deal with my problems, even if the struggle is sometimes so hard that I momentarily sink into despair.
