I think most of us who have had multiple twin flame like relationships understand it is not real…those who have just one that they’re clinging on to also cling on to the idea of twin flame and claim one is a “false twin”….they are keeping themselves stuck…And be weary they convince themselves we don’t know because we’ve never been in one…it’s very common for them to do that
Wow! I came to the conclusion that Reiki was a pyramid scheme back in 2000 reading the literature from the International Center for Reiki Training. They claim to be cheaper than Takata, and will if you have the money, attune anyone. It has become the McDonald's of the healing arts. If you wish to become a Center Certified Teacher, there is no end to the costs. They also trademark everything. New types of Reiki channeled by the CEO who claims to have attained a STRONGER type of Reiki through his meditation practices by some kind of personal guru. He even trademarked the name of the Holy Spirit which is from God is God and is open to anyone who asks. The story of the century old practice passed on by Takata is a proven LIE to sell it to a predominantly Christian America. Anything that begins on a lie and costs thousands can't be good, pure, true and from God. Oh, you say 3 weeks, some courses will make you a Master in a weekend then, make their students do a course at a time at least a year apart then, decide if you are allowed to be a Master. This "art" was perverted a long time ago. Like I said, I discussed this after I realized it was a scheme to keep you adhered to a school. In this case the International Center for Reiki Training, who when everybody has their NEW type of Reiki (trademarked) invent another one, which they claim is MORE powerful and trademark that at higher and higher prices. Now, they are giving attunements ONLINE! It is a hands-on healing modality that if it is authentic in any way, MUST be taught in person. I am a 5 time Master/Teacher who spent years traveling to receive my training, and additional classes from teachers from around the world. I have given up teaching Reiki. If I do healing, I DO NOT CHARGE and DO NOT CHARGE if anyone wants an attunement as I believe everyone needs to be able to channel healing energy to heal humanity and the world. BTW, that "triangle" symbol is NOT a part of the traditional or Japanese Reiki passed on by Dr. Hayashi. I have never, in all my experience and training seen it before. Someone made that up and stuck it in. The Sei He Ki doesn't look right either does the Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen. I have copies of the symbols as drawn by Mrs. Takata who brought Reiki to America. I received my Master/Teacher degree in 1997, and received each degree a year apart. Then, I went on to receive 4 additional Master/Teacher degrees. I have read every authentic Reiki book and been taught by world renowned Reiki Masters. I can tell you after 27 yrs I do know what I am talking about. Also, I can trace my lineage to Mrs. Takata within 2 Masters in between. My Master, who received it directly from Iris Ishikuro who received it from Hawayo Takata.
This appears to fit my situation. It makes no sense to bother continuing. There is nothing to look forward to. But I am too cowardly to take myself out.
I'm experiencing ALL of this, but I'm an Atheist and a skeptic and very uncertain and uncomfortable explaining things with spirituality, as much as I would love to believe that there is a spiritual reality. I've been both religious and deeply spiritual in the past, and I definitely felt the most like myself when I was spiritual, but I don't want to believe in something based on feelings because feelings can be wrong and the evidence suggests that we do not have souls and that our personality, etc. Is entirely dictated by our brains. If you have a brain injury, for example, it can change everything about you, how you act, think, emotional responses, etc. (Classic example is Phineas Gage.) But I do feel very much like a lot of things AREN'T explained, and I've had multiple debilitating illnesses all my life that are unexplained and getting worse. I'm worried I won't live very long if i don't figure out how to heal myself, and I have had a lot of mysterious things and synchronicities rapidly happening lately as I've been tentatively exploring spiritual things again. But I'm also concerned about how you say that of you don't answer the call to shamanism, you will die ... Wth? I keep seeing videos where people say that you are tormented by spirits until you accept the call, and that doesn't seem right, or healthy. If there are spirits, they sound abusive and cruel, and I don't trust any path that is forced upon people and oppressive. Thoughts, anyone??
You apparently have never been on Twin Flame journey. It is your journey and you would know if you are on a twin flame journey , trust me. It’s completely different than any soul connection or karmic connection. But you can give your opinions just don’t say there is no such thing as Twin flames, it is offensive to those that have had this experience.
I’m a certified master life coach and when I conquer this whenever that may be, I’m gona help others get through this too. It’s hard shit getting through the day and if I can help someone else get through it that’s exactly what I’ll do with my life and my life’s purpose.
Thank you for articulating this so clearly. I'm in it and ready to face it. It's very hard. Your observations are so clear, you are throwing out a life preserver. Thank you.
Amazing story. Thank you. I'm overwhelmed and don't really know what to say, other than that this is also my story. I want to get help but don't know how. Maybe someone can reach out to me because I'm confused. Am I spiritual, religious, mentally ill? I just don't know , but I don't think I'm of this "plane". Thanks to Zack for helping me to feel seen.
I stumbled on this video, looking up a book i just purchased, "The Modern Shaman's Guide to a Pregnant Universe" . [which is amazing] but thank you for this video. I definitely relate and look forward to finding my calling as a Shaman.
Your story went under my skin. It is medicine for me to hear those stories at the moment. Myself undergoing those initiations all my live, escaping from one nightmare to another..always outside of myself, because o has list my self. Aftery last breakdown, a broken kneecap into 3 pieces, i understood what happened to me. Since than I recover my heart..developing my mind. Before trauma was coming up, i wasnt aware of, how damaging it was to my psych. TOXIC SHAME, is the most burden to proceed
Sounds like your dis connected. Christ conciousness is a state of beingness when all our internal programmes fall away. …leaving us in a place of pure awareness. That’s what Jesus came to teach. The kingdom of heaven is within us all.
Thanks so much this Zack helped so much !! I read the book Home Coming Championing the inner child by John Bradshaw he created some books Family Secrets and The Shame that Binds also some videos on RU-vid ...I also remember a saying from the Shamans ..In many shamanic societies, if you came to a medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask one of four questions. When did you stop dancing? When did you stop singing? When did you stop being enchanted by stories? When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence?”
I have experienced abilities since very young, have a wonderful life, been called to the shamanistic path without any dark nights of the soul, no abuse, no drugs, no disintegration and rearrangement of my soul. I have felt I have always walked with God. I have always known my purpose is to serve others and grow spiritually. So why is there so much negativity involved with this path? Can't you have a perfectly wonderful life and be drawn to shamanism? Maybe someone can answer me.
Nice, I envy you. I had many traumas and my shamanic path that I was drawn to (first experience was the appearance of a highly intelligent and loving spirit while sitting on a bus) was deeply interwined with my own healing. I was told that gifth to suck illness with the right hand was not just a game to play with others but first the order to heal myself, feel myself, and allow my self-love and power. So to answer your question: I think there are infinite ways as long as they reflect your way of connecting to light and fighting darkness, as individual and as part of a community❤
Thank you, Zack! I had my first spiritual awakening in 2022. I'm the 4th time in Isolation right now. The physical symptoms (electricity through my body, heart palpitations, ear ringing, circulatory problems) drive me crazy. I hate this feeling, but I know it will disappear. Nothing is left. No friends, no family, no Job. I hope life will give me a fair Chance someday. Thx again - Best wishes for you und your journey ❤
Surrender to god and acceptance is the key to come out from it As much as early u learn lessons from this dark night of soul as much as early u will come out from it
How you deal with isolation?? Ive struggled to build up the right friendships cause due to childhood trauma an abandonment I've been a people pleaser all this time.. I was not even aware. I suddenly don't wanna see anyone.. but I feel im going maddd so many days alone... i dont trust anyone, and yes, a lot of emotions crying at any time.. all falling down, mad in a way with myself for treating me so badly and putting me down so much in friendships and relationships.. is it good to find a therapist? a psycoanalist? I just left mine after 3 years of psychoanalysis.... so in this void alone in a way... how do you deal with loneliness??? and isolation?? or is it supposed to be like this..alone? full time...
Check, check, check and check! LOL Awesome video, what an amazing, real and down-to-earth contrast to many other videos on shamanism I've watched where the old paradigm is reflected that demanded that shamans had to be initiated by older shamans (=still living humans). I love how you described how it's beneficial to have a mentor and learn practices that resonate with you. I rejected my shamanic calling 22 years ago because I didn't feel ready for it and asked to do it later on in life. After that, life just down-spiraled until 3 years ago: at that time, I was dealing with very demonic forces and had an energy healer pull me out of all the worst situations I was in. That's when I returned to my daily spiritual practice and vowed (to the Divine and my spirit guides) to do a healing ceremony every night. Last year I thought I was ready to take on clients after having practiced on myself, friends and family, but was then knocked down a few notches and shown that I still needed to heal my inner child (and the related toxic shame you mentioned). Tons of love, light and blessings to you! <3
Thank you Zach, I am currently in the thick of it and it is soooo comforting to know that you are not going crazy whilst being in it and just wishing for it to end. This seems so foreign. I am beyond grateful🙏🏽
AH-MAY-ZING testimony. I feel like I'm losing my mind. (And as soon as I wrote that, you LITERALLY said that same thing!) I am married to a Christian minister who doesn't understand this at all and thinks I am borderline. ❤️🩹
I keep hearing that i am a shaman from Spirit. I need to know what the hell has happened to me. I dont recognize myself. Born into heavy generational trauma too.
