Thank you Lena. Your energy is tried and true for me, my thumb is complete when I thought I would lose the tip before you sent healing Reiki my way. Thank you again for that too.
Love to you and yours
Bette

Well here is a little rambling update and maybe a word of caution.


After one of my more startling encounters into NPMR I was a little taken back by the experience, it left me in a weird sick to my stomach state for about a week maybe a little longer, I did not know at the time what it was or why I was having it. I found out from Tom that it was just training which made me feel worlds better knowing that I did not do those horrendously awful things but that I was placed into another consciousness to experience it, well after finding out this info I think I got a little cocky is the word or a big bump of enthusiasm and talked to my guides and let them know they got me real good on that particular test/experience and also told them on several nightly meditations to bring it on, I am ready for anything you can throw at me, lets put the pedal to the medal, lets put this training stuff into high gear I am ready for you.


Now I guess the reason I am like this is that going by the life expectancy for the men in my family I have thrown away about 3/4 of my training time here and I am willing to do whatever it takes to maximize the time I have left in this current meat suit.


So here we go I think this will cover the time from my initial conversation with my guides to current. As I see my Family going through illness that I seem to be unable to do anything about , PMR accomplishments, business and possessions which are crumbling down around me while at the same time trying to help my wife understand and see the bigger picture so she doesn't go off the deep end as I calmly walk around with a smile and hardly a worry. At times for a brief second I start to loose my balance and dip into insanity. I take a deep breath and tell the system to bring it on with my balance back in check. Honestly the hardest thing I am dealing with in my test are seeing and feeling the emotions of my wife as she goes through this with me and trying to do something about them, trying to fix the issues so she doesn't have to deal with them. I keep thinking back to the relationship post Tom put out about if you wife has any problems its on the Man's shoulders to fix, well its not working out so well in that department, but my 9 year old son is a trooper, I would swear he came into our lives to get my ass back on the right track, that little dude just radiates love and goodness. He is almost done with MBT book 1 , and has an understanding that surprised me, he understands it and we have talks all the time about death, fear and ego.


Oh yeah here is the kicker, I assumed my training was going to be NPMR based, basically me and the system and not putting my wife, son through my training but I am taking a guess that they agreed to it. I didn't even stop to think that, No your training is going to be right here up close and personal in the training lab, no switching data streams from this session for a long time to come. So I opened up a can of whoop ass , gotta love it.


So be careful what you ask for and make sure you dammed ready to take it on.


peace

Thynes,

Great post man. It is helpful to see the training others are going through. You seem to have a great perspective. I know what you mean about slipping up sometimes.

One thing I do, since my wife has a totally different perspective on things most of the time, is to act sometimes like things do concern me more than they do. It helps us to relate. I don't mean in an overly negative way, but just to let her know and reassure her that I am involved in what's going on.

Thanks man,
Ramon

Ramon,

Can totally relate to that technique. Sometimes that is the best way to keep things on an even par.

Cole,

Exactly. I believe that if I didn't try to keep things on an even par with most people, I doubt I would have a job and maybe not a wife! lol.

The truth is directed spiritual growth isn't always the easy path. I guess that's why Tom calls this the warrior path. The funny thing about it is, although sometimes I feel a tremendous disconnect from a lot of people in my life, it's easier to understand them and relate because of, what I believe to be, a greater awareness of the fears and ego related issues that drive most of their thoughts and actions. Maybe that's what Tom meant when he said that the weirder he got the more normal he was able to seem (or he said something like that.)

Ramon

Hi Ramon,

Its good to know I'm not the only one ;) It seems very hard for me to Act and show things are bothering and effecting me when they don't, I mean I do have sympathy and compassion for how she feels and what she is going through because I can remember how it was when I used to feel and act the exact same way and it wasn't that long ago- not fun. We have discussions all the time about the big picture view and she knows where I am coming from, we share many of the same ideas so we have a lot in common and are not that different in our thinking. For the most part I don't waiver in how I act/feel about things, even with my clients or other relationships. I don't bring up my views or beliefs unless they want to know what they are but if they talk about problems or issues I normally give them a different way to look at things. I don't think its harming any of my relationships, some people in the immediate family think im strange though. One of my brother-in-law is a devout church of christ guy, his son who's in his 20's is open to different point of view so one day I was having a conversation with the son about MBT and after my conversation my brother-in-law who was in the same room and listening, picked up his bible with a serious look on his face and fell asleep reading it, I don't know if I upset him or planted a seed that shook his belief system and he was having a hard time dealing with it but he never brought it up and I didn't ask :)


Well my wife and I must have been communicating in NPMR when I was typing the earlier post above because about 20 minuets after posting it she got off the couch 'She is recovering from surgery' she gave me a big hug and said thank you for being the man you are, I love you and I love my life. I lit up like a Christmas tree inside :)

Right on... that says it all bud :)

What an AWESOME thread!

A few years back I noticed an intense, unmistakable shiver in my upper left bicep as I blew through a red light in a deserted parking lot with an 18-wheeler behind me containing a truck driver who had just asked me for directions. I trust my intuition when it tells me I avoided something terrible by blowing through that light, which was taking way too long to change.

I have since come to identify that tingle as an indication that I have just avoided a car crash. If you have ever read Home With God, I have come to identify these physical sensations as an artifact of just having experienced a Holy Inquiry. If you have not read this book, this most likely will not make sense to you.

I have asked Tom in an email, and Bette in a thread called Help Request, to please help me assist my friend M. L. R. with three major areas of concern: financial, health and relationships, particularly romantic. I will accept all the help I can get in this area, to those of you who care to practice remote or distance healing. Her first name should be all you need, please connect to her through my consciousness if you'd like. Her major financial concern is staying in her apartment and her health concern involves polyps in her head that affect her sinuses and keep returning after surgery to have them removed. I like to click my amygdala forward (as in the cloudbusting exercise mentioned elsewhere by Bette) and then dissipate or evaporate those polyps the same way I would do for a cloud. (I use this same image on the fat cells in my stomach and thighs :)

Thank you in advance, I will be happy to keep you posted on any progress we make if you are interested.

Please note, I do have M.'s request/permission to send help her way.

In Love,
Lynda

I appreciate the confidence you put in me Lynda, please remember though that I only "realized" the VR nature of reality recently (I'd say it really clicked about 6 months ago), and any help request like that is simply me thinking right then (usually) loving thoughts "at" your friend. Lena has much more organized healing realities, as far as I'm concerned, as would many others here rather than me. I'm still thinking loving thoughts, don't get me wrong, but I'm just a pretty disorganized soul at this point in my evolution which I need you to know. As I like to say though, practice, practice, practice, so don't stop (I won't), just be fully informed, okay?

Romance is one area you are concerned for her, or she is concerned? Lack of it, or just not a "good" one currently? The first relationship to work on is our relationship with our self. All the rest will follow.

I'm glad you made it here Lynda, you did good listening to your self.
Love
Bette

Romance is the least of the three as far as I am concerned, but to my friend M. it is a very big deal that she has never been married and has never had children. She has voiced with longing to me, "where is my Prince Charming?!?" but I couldn't agree with you more that first we need to address our own relationship with our own self, a point I and my sister keep trying to emphasize to my friend, who unfortunately was not raised in the unconditionally loving, supportive and nurturing family environment that I and my two sisters enjoyed.
I'm glad I made it here too, Bette, but I was also glad to have found Dr. Michael Sharp and his forums, and we all saw how well THAT turned out, so I am still optimistically skeptical that I have found a permanent home here, but I am looking forward to seeing how it all turns out nonetheless.

As far as listening to my self, the funny thing is, I almost did not watch Tom's lecture because it was too old! Like I told him in an email, I am into fresh information, really fresh, like this week. Glad I listened to myself too, fo sho, fo sho.

Anyway, the request has been put out there, hopefully Lena and Thynes and Tom and Ramon and Montana and everybody and anybody else who can lend a helping hand will assist. For now I am finished divulging personal information about my friend, we have all we should need to work on her.

I will answer additional questions via PM if need be.

Thank you,
Lynda

Sorry, okay, you are correct.
Love
Bette
