The Man in the Mirror
I’ve heard many near death experience stories, but nothing like that of Natalie Sudman. The following is an excerpt from this youtube video. In just a few of her words, things I hadn’t heard before, she helps us create a visual to see more clearly what life on the other side of this realm looks like.
“… we could see my body in the truck and we could see that body as a physical body and we could also see it as a matrix of energy … from that energy matrix perspective we began to play around with healing my body … we were goofing around for quite a while setting these injuries. We would wave a hand and we had severed my right hand and we’d fall all over ourselves laughing at this future that unfolded, me trying to learn to do everything with my left hand. We would wave a hand and the shrapnel that’s in my head we’d move back a few inches so that I had cognitive difficulties and we thought that was hilarious. Obviously these things are not funny once you’re in the physical body right? It’s absolutely essential to adopt that expanded awareness to understand this humor. It was like planning a movie. You can’t hurt the actors so it doesn’t matter what horrors you put them through.”
If you didn’t know it already, none of this is real. We are spiritual beings having a human experience, and that is all this is. Thinking back to her video, with what is going on right now in the world, I can see the other side bellying up to a big bowl of popcorn as they can’t stop watching, laughing with complete fascination that we are going down such a rabbit hole. People are dying, families are being ripped apart; lives are ruined because of a disagreement over a needle in the arm.
Even though I was never exposed to religion growing up, most of the people I’ve known over the years did grow up with religion and most still go to church. The ironic thing is, with so many people in the population going to church, this means somewhere deep within, they believe in God. As a matter of fact, anyone who believes in God or any higher power needs to hear what I’m going to share. We have to wake up before it’s out of our control.
In America, we were extremely divided over the last presidential experience. People blocked friends from Facebook as they didn’t agree with the “in your face” politics we were living. What was once a taboo subject was in memes everywhere. People felt for the first time that their political standing was right and they began to get very loud about it. As a collective, we started to get pretty rowdy and wound up; relationships were challenged and severed. Then we were faced with a worldwide pandemic and a race to find a vaccine.
Now, there are vaccines available and this is when our world has begun to implode. No one can seem to agree what should be expected of us, and the division is making the last four years of politics become a distant memory. We are no longer looking at one person who could single handedly destroy us as a country, we have taken the reins and turned the guns on ourselves. We are hating each other and ruining our lives as we speak – over a choice. And now, there is no one to blame but the person in the mirror. You really need to take this seriously. You don’t have anyone to blame, nowhere to point your finger.
This is where God comes in.
Just five years ago, I couldn’t even say the word God because I had no idea what to believe; I was never exposed. My spiritual journey over the last four years has opened my eyes to so much I wouldn’t have imagined to be real. The explanation of who we are and why we incarnate as humans has come to and through me organically, without ever attending a church service. Knowing from this space what brings people together, it boggles my mind to see us so actively and intentionally destroying critical life relationships. Many of them will not be able to bounce back after so much venom has been spewed. We can still stop the madness before more damage is done. We have to open our eyes.
If you believe in God or know there is something so much bigger than yourself, it’s time to get connected to that space. Teachings in the Bible are very clear, telling us we should love our neighbor and, of course, never judge or cast stones. How has everyone forgotten such a simple idea that has kept us strong and together? We are all connected. We are all one. What you do to someone else, you do to yourself. When you judge someone else, you are judging yourself. Somewhere along the line, everyone of us adopted some crazy belief system that has triggered this incredibly dividing experience.
Here’s what I don’t understand. There are so many people outwardly screaming, pointing and waving signs at the other side. Both sides are contaminating each other with vile comments and saying hateful things to tear each other down. If any one of you fitting this description is a follower of God, how can you do this?
Trying to create a metaphor that would make sense, imagine you are skiing behind a little ski boat, the water in the middle is very calm. The water to the right and left is very turbulent. The more angry you get, the more hatred you spew at your friends, family and neighbors, the bigger your boat is going to get. The harder it is going to be to find any harmony or ability to dig yourself out of the hole you are digging.
This is what is happening to us right now. We have dug our feet into our position and we are not willing to bend, even slightly, for someone we love. What once was the calm waters of the wake has split and gone to the opposing sides. The turbulent waters on both sides are creating this madness.
We need to get back to God and we must move fast. For just one moment, allow yourself to completely surrender your trust and faith to the one you’ve spent your life worshipping. Has God ever let you down?
For any of you on the hard right or left of the wake, you’ve stopped listening. You’ve stopped loving as you know you are to do. You are allowing something so minuscule as having a needle put in your arm be the thing that will determine the strength of any of your relationships moving forward. Is all of this madness really worth such a sacrifice?
Without having to know why, other than you trust the power you have always trusted, you must come back to God. Once we re-member that God and love comes first, you should easily be able to take a few steps back to the smooth waters in the middle. Even if you have to believe it is just a temporary position, do it anyway. Just think of it as a break or a time out to get your blood pressure back down to normal.
Look back in the history books at events such as this that you would never have imagined being involved with. You see yourself as that peaceful middleman wondering how anybody can be so extreme. And then perhaps for a moment, you will have a flash that that is you that you are witnessing. You are now the problem.
For just a minute, go back to the wake, and think about what God might want you to do. Once you step back into that place of allowing and surrender and let go of the anger and hatred for just a few minutes, you will begin to heal.
You need to realize that we are being tried and tested, and you are one of the people Creating the destruction. You know darn good and well that the people in the middle, the calm waters between, we aren’t doing this. We are watching you beat each other up and kill each other when you know how wrong it is.
If we step out of the rough water onto the smooth wake in the middle, we will once again find love and compassion for one another that will put an end to this monster we keep feeding. For many of us, this will be the biggest test of humanity we will experience in our lifetime.
Those of you firmly planted with your fist waving at the other side – you are the problem. Look in a mirror and do the math. The only way this madness will end is when we make steps to meet each other in the middle, stop pointing fingers and remember brotherly love. Remember the way you felt on 9/12 for one moment and remember what that feels like.
If for just a few minutes we all threw away our weapons and moved to the middle. The dust would quickly begin to settle and we would begin to dig our way out of this pandemic and all of the fallout. Come together from a place of love, caring and compassion for life and one another and don’t let what has already destroyed so many lives take any more prisoners. We have to stop this train before it derails. We haven’t begun to see how bad things are going to get. Is this what you want to see? What message are you sending to your children?
Deciding that no matter what, you are going to hold your stance and dig in, I hope you realize that before you know it, you’re going to need a much bigger boat.
For just a moment, even if you cannot believe it, pretend that we are all connected and we are all one. What you do to your brother, you are doing to yourself. I know this is challenging to understand at such an unpredictable time, but we have to stop the direction we are headed.
Imagine what it looks like to the other realm as they watch us implode and take each other down. They are enjoying the show as they know none of this is real. But, for mankind to move forward and get back to love and light, we must move now. Do your part. Or be the problem.

”We are no longer looking at one person who could single handedly destroy us as a country”. If this is what you believe, you are the problem. So sad. Look at how much worse things are now!

Chuck, things are far worse now, I agree with that assessment.

Wow, Cari! Your post is trending again today with 269 views so far since it went live. It’s a hot topic in our crazy world right now.
September 25, 2021 @ 4:32 pm
Well I know someone had to say it… I have no problems being that one any time I have to!

The lines are really drawn on everything right now and it seems everybody is ready for a fight. I wish things could settle down some.

Those of us in the fight for our ideals will either win or loose, but we fight for our core beliefs. Those who didnt fight the last time, those who sought not to make waves and just ignore the massive issues and lies facing humanity, were led to Auschwitz.

You have an excellent point Ascension. In forgetting that, we repeat history.

Yeah I’m on the same page, the line must be drawn somewhere, you cannot compromise on your core values, no matter what.
