New Age Ascension is bullshit!

[Benoit Jazy]

A lot of new age content make it sound like you are ascending; it’s incredible, we’re getting upgraded to the fifth dimension. But from what I can tell, wether you call it spiritual awakening, mid life crisis, a existential crisis, dark night of the soul,... it is pointing to the same thing, and has been there since the dawn of time. (See Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey). There comes a time in the life of a man where he needs transformation.

There is no upgrade,  you didn’t choose to incarnate right now because it is so cool to awaken, you won’t get caught in another 17000 years of reincarnation if you don’t upgrade your vibration right now. I can’t believe I adopted these silly beliefs for a while. It is ridiculous. There is only a transformation, a return to the Self.

I try not to let it hurt my spiritual ego too much

See the problem arises when you adopted a belief. You don't need to adopt shit if you find it yourself. 

New age Ascension seems like a weird abstraction about on the same abstraction level of Satan or demons.

[ajasatya]

@Benoit Jazy the idea of abstract spiritual ascension is nothing new.

Hey look, it's another 'bullshit' thread...... I guess that's what Leo gets for making a video calling everything bullshit. Haha

I am so happy that there are so many more people on here who seem to be less ideological about Enlightenment than prior times on the Forum where people seemed almost religious with non-dual belief.

Let's hope it lasts

You are right to reject any beliefs that threatens you  

"If you don't.. then.. or.. to you!"  

Threats are false, you are a divine being that is freedom itself, you evolve at the natural course you merrily take on  

Plants do not sprint to grow out of the soil, which is why there is no plant race, there is plant life  

Lets simply live, all will fall into place like an harmonious song

It's crazy how many people in New Age circles believe in this.

The idea is that we're upgrading our carbon based DNA into crystalline DNA and it goes along with bodily symptoms.  Symptoms that could easily be ascribed to chronic health issues but nobody seems to question that.

I've just seen an interview on JeffMara podcast (usually about NDE's) and this woman although she believes in ascension, she said she had diabetes and most people on her social media said 'don't worry, it's ascension symptoms'.

But who knows there may be something to it, I just got the feeling that a lot of these New Agers like to believe in it, because it makes them feel special (the chosen ones) and it makes you believe that ascension happens to you and you don't really have to do anything to bring a higher consciousness in your body.

Alright

@newbee Religion comes in many shapes and sizes.

[vibv]

Well there are different things going on here. One of those is an esoteric belief based on articles and hear-say, believed because it sounds good and seems very comfortable.

On the other hand there is the direct experience of things happening, a deepening of spiritual awakenings all around and serious signs, that there really could be a shift underway. 

We‘ll have to wait. I’d say don’t believe what others tell you, but believe in your first hand experience.

There is a large amount of energy in my head right now, that's all I know. There has been for a while. I should meditate to ground it but I haven't been doing so for some time. There has been an intensifying of the last 20 years issues, and I also have experienced that.

I don't feel my emotional state lifting in the slightest, nor my physical body or circumstances changing much. 

I've been through actual ascension to reach infinite love (for all of 5 minutes which lingered for 2 days), and no its nothing like this. Its just a peak of energy at the moment.

Come to think of it that's probably why I am not sleeping well, I will go meditate.

@BlueOak haha, felt that

Of course, there's no evolution, no destination, no sense to anything.
This is chaos 

Spirituality is another bullshit created by your infinite mind

You don't understand their message because you lack consciousness. Ever thought this could be true? I know what they are talking about....and its not bullshit...but if you lack the awareness of course it will be bullshit to you. Tell a racist his views are wrong and he will call bullshit. No difference than what you are doing right now.

Because of your bias, you won't know what they are saying....such a shame...to live a life with the arrogance to assume you know something is bullshit without actually investigating it. Just....like a racist.

Now when your tired of acting like a know it all, and actually have some humbleness to you...here is a good source that can describe what 5-D is. Majority of you will never reach 5-D because you are too afraid to deal with your repressed pain, and are too in love with hatred and ignorance. Prove me wrong....

All that content is a guy who is going to parachute in but who talks endlessly about it and never jumps. It is fine as an introduction, inspiration, mental openness to new possibilities, but the less time you spend in that reading phase, the better.
