There’s a mass awakening happening now that’s significant to the time in history we live in.
Religion is a harmful scam.
We’re all believing in something that isn’t real, even the people who doesn’t believe in spirituality are believing in something that they cannot explain themselves. There is no proof that we are real. No proof that there are extraterrestrial beings outside our solar system. No one has ever seen pluto without the use of technology. No one has ever seen the core of the Earth. No one has ever seen the true skin of dinosaurs, and yet every one of us believe and visualize something that we don’t know if it actually exist, or existed. YOU ARE ALL HYPOCRITES, AND NO MORE THAN THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN THEIR RELIGION. HUMANS ARE OUGHT TO BELIEVE IN SOMETHING THEY HAVENT EVEN SEEN OR EXPERIENCED. YOU TOO BELIEVE IN SUCH FAIRY TALES. Im pretty sure yall also believed in Santa when you were a kid, also boggieman, ghosts, bigfoot, aliens, and many more. ALL OF YOU ARE IGNORANTS WHO THINK THEY ARE NOT THE SAME AS THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN SUCH FAIRY TALES. YOU AS WELL IS BLINDED WITH YOUR OWN FAITH. Tsk..
The ascension of consciousness for mankind starts with the shift from the logical (brain) mind of ego, to the mind of the Heart! Some may call this the Christ consciousness. It's the all-knowing that we are connected to everything and everyone with love !
Believing in something that isn't real = spirituality. How does that awaken the mind any more than imagination? This lady is w quack.
LSD does it for me…have a nice day…🙂
Spiritually is fine but Religions are mythology.
Spirituality Example:
In the Unanimous Declaration the people knew with one mind and agreed on one accord that they were one people.
The word "unanimous means with one mind
Another Example:
On 911 (September 11, 2001)
after the World Trade Center collapsed, the people ran as one people from lower Manhattan across the Brooklyn Bridge to Brooklyn in one accord.
.
We are Spiritually invisible when we come togather as one people in accord.
And by the way that is why, The Unanimous Declaration is the living Spirit of this document.
Satan comes in so many forms.
Brains are brains. No such thing as a spiritual brain. There are healthy brains, unhealthy brains, etc. The spirituality nonsense isn’t needed, just use mindfulness. Use your brain in healthy ways, be mindful, but spirituality is certainly not needed. She needs a better word than “spiritualityâ€ÂÂ
Garbage broker.
Not watching the tv and especially Msm propaganda is an awakening. Brain scans only create data for a totalitarian tyrant to confuse and mislead. This is ancient news.
Belief in something unproven and without evidence is what children do. Nothing destroys rational thought faster than spirituality. It is a drug addiction.
“Awaking†the brain seems to mean “make more comfortable (personally).†This appears to just lead to bigotry, as it doesn’t also make one more intelligent or more empathetic. The negative externalities, e.g. thinking one is better than another for no justified reason and acting on that fallacious belief, likely outweigh the positive of the comfort one feels by having those beliefs.
Some people are depressed because they are being abused, stalked, harassed, etc.. They can be spiritual all day but if they are being hunted then its not going to help the root issue.
Sure! Look also Vicktor E. Frankl created in the lager, a logoterapie to cure traumatic situations with the faith in our God so he survived at the Shoa.
Crazy people.
Deluding oneself of something that is not there and not having any evidence to back it up.
Happiness is a choice, repackaged and sold with a brand new name.
She looks like she gonna catch a comet soon.
– – awaken ?!?? – – You have GOT to be kidding me ……it is false believing magical thinking…. – Most CLOSED minded people are religious spiritual – – makes them feel they are special or something – – – reality is what people should be into – candid facts –
Having said that, I found myself in a wretched state of heartbreaking despair, crawling along the floor, traumatized by heartache and gut-wrenching heartbreak. It was so heartbreaking; gut-wrenchingly heartbreaking heartache.
This is so heartbreaking! OMG! That was horrifyingly heartbreaking, right? My heart is broken because THAT's so heartbreaking and traumatizing! Gut-wrenching heartache is so heartbreaking and terrifying, right? I'm heartbroken, aren't you? Have you found yourself in a state of unprecedented insomnia, as a result of incomprehensible heartache and heartbreaking heartache, due to some heartbreaking event? The unprecedented uncertainty is existentially heartbreaking! I'm sending Lavender Luminescent Love and Luridly Oscillating Empowering Light! For healing, of course! That's heartwarming! Go forth, and nobly walk in your majestic truth and make the world a better place while you embrace your authenticity! That's so heartbreaking and empowering! I find myself wondering when the perpetual heartbreaking heartache will ever end? Having said that, do you find yourself thinking the same thing, when you find yourself (at the end of the day)? That being said, of course.
Our prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said that every child is born on nature. Now science is finding it 1400 Yrs later
If you want to see how far spirituality can take you, with no religious delusions required, there is arguably no better source than Sam Harris. His book, Waking Up: A Guide to Spirituality Without Religion, is an excellent introduction to this topic. He manages to approach it from a scientific perspective (he's a neuroscientist, after all) and avoid the pitfall of New Age woo (e.g. Deepak Chopra). Highly recommended.
Awakens the brain and shuts down the intellect.
Did she know somebody at the network? This sounds like, “I’m Okay, You’re Okay†or “Dianetics  you, are depressing.
Believing in something deep, intrinsic and unexplainable.
It is the soul and core of a person and it IS a protector against even the most difficult stressors. 😇
This lady sounds like she runs a cult. What qualifications does she have? Not once does she use scientific terms for parts of the brain.
not
Such Horse-puckey!
Spirituality is merely a term used by people to write articles and make money – there is no science behind magic nor religion (other than the psychology to trap people into "believing!"). If you are depressed, you have no goals nor a work ethic. Sit and watch FOX news!
We can see in Afghanistan the dangers of believing in so-called Holy books. Stop the madness and embrace the rational. No book is holy, they are written by men. And sometimes women.
Kill me!
This mystical fever dream is wook science garbage at best.
Theres not a single shred of evidence of ghosts or fairy spirits in 10000 years.
This idiot is causing the collective intelligence of society to nosedive.
I'm reporting this video for the malicious spread of health disinformation on a public platform
Excellent video…very helpful..
For those of us not smitten with absolute “blind faithâ€ÂÂ, this approach is far more appreciated and appealing.
Tell me the difference between the placebo effect and spirituality. Tell yourself something is true and it will become true if you believe it. We don’t need fairy tales to give us hope we need real life practices that nurtures healthy relationship and a healthy environment. Spirituality and the placebo effect are no different. Lies can be useful for self deception.
