This is designed for the new person who is trying to figure out all this (stuff) about being on the path, the journey, whatever you call it.  I especially want to talk with the Christian on the path as they begin their journey to enlightenment.

I have spent almost my entire life serving as a Christian minister.  I have been ordained over a decade, but have ministered over 30 years.  So, I have a lot to share about the growth I have experienced.  I hope you will take a look at the videos.  They are brief, less than a few minutes.  So that you are not rushed to leave, but can spend time learning, and exploring your place and time in this life.

When a person is ready to experience spiritual growth, their energy fields tend to vibrate at a higher level.  Once this higher energy begins, it then attracts higher beings (guardian angels, spiritual guides, whatever you want to call them) to assist in their growth.  Once this begins to happen, they will seem to experience more unusual phenomenon.  They may be more sharply aware of things around them.  They might see colors, lights or images where they would not expect them.  It is even possible that they may find that they have a sudden “knowledge” of things just before they happen or “know” what people are going to say just before they say it.  On such occasions as this these events serve to open our eyes more to the spiritual world where we can get assistance from these higher beings.  Although it’s a little disconcerting (okay, sometimes it’s scary!) it’s not a situation that you need to worry about or analyze; you simply need to accept the experience as a sign of your spiritual growth and existence.

I find that certain breathing exercises help me to focus during meditation.  I usually take a slow deep breath for a count of five, hold the breath for a count of ten and then release it slowly to the count of five.  You may be able to do it for a longer period of time but the idea is to take a slow breath, allow the breath time to move oxygen into your blood system and then slowly release the breath.  You can repeat the breathing exercise again if you need to.  It’s a good way to relax and clear your thoughts.  It also helps your spiritual center to open up.  I call it “creating heart space”.  While you are meditating, ask for guidance from your angels or guides in order to better understand what these visions and events might mean.  Then relax and observe whatever images appear in your mind.  These images may not make sense to you in the beginning, but with time you will better understand what’s happening.  Your enlightenment will follow as the event has time to work its way into your subconscious mind.  There were times when I had visions where it was days, weeks, or in one case, months before I understood the meaning of what I was seeing.  The most important thing to understand about all of this is that it’s a fairly normal event.  When these events occur just remain calm, observe the event, log it in your mind and give thanks for the experience.

I had the guidance of having a teacher/mentor for over a year.  I am here to help your growth as a spiritual being.  We are spiritual beings and as we grow we become more aware of the spiritual aspect of our environment and the spiritual beings that are there to guide us on our path.
