You Do Not Live In A Prison

This is a matrix - it is a matrix of God's making for you to grow within - which is exactly what the word 'matrix' means. Snap out of it.

Today I encountered this post by Christian, spiritual commentator, Nick Hinton, reproduced in full here. Keep in mind Nick otherwise has nothing to do with the ideas presented in this post and he and I, while agreeing on many things, also differ greatly.

“Why is it that every time scientists learn to astral project they encounter entities who convince them they live in a Gnostic prison? For example, Robert Monroe was the man who taught the CIA how to remote view. And he met a light being who told him the world we inhabit is actually a garden used to grow people.

It was created by a god who uses humanity as an energetic food source. Supposedly, he was also shown the emitter that maintains this illusion. Along the way, he learned all is One and saw some other beings. One species looked humanoid alligators. Then, he met the real god, who looked like a planet, rather than a person.

But a lot of this actually depressed and drained Mr. Monroe. Sometimes, he laid in bed for weeks after his experiments. Similarly, Carlos Castaneda became suicidal after spending a lot of time in the astral plane.

It was there that he discovered this life is just a dream, but a dream that’s been turned into a human chicken coop by cosmic predators and inorganic aliens. … And it seemed some of his cultish followers [took their lives] soon after.

So, what seemed to be fun and fascinating at first turned out to be deadly in the end. This is because we are not supposed to force our way into the astral plane. Castaneda was using drugs and Mr. Monroe was having sleep paralysis. Both of these methods are demonic.

And all the beings they encountered were demonic, even the ones who seemed good. Lucifer disguises himself as an angel of light. In the Orthodox faith, this is taken very seriously. Orthodoxy also acknowledges the astral realm as a real place, but it’s not to be messed with. It’s the lowest level of heaven.

However, it is more like hell. It’s so deceptive and dangerous only a saint can survive going in and out of it all the time. But even the saints did not explore the different levels of heaven unless God took them there.

They did not want to leave earth or experience visions, lest they become spiritually proud and full of vainglory. It might sound ironic, but they strived for simplicity. After all, meekness and humble mindedness is the only way to actually defeat a demon.

They flee when they see someone who thinks they’re unworthy of mysteries and wonderful things. But those who enter the astral without this Orthodox wisdom may fall prey to feeling like a genius or a prophet. Then, they will believe whatever a lying spirit tells them. And it seems all these lying spirits want people to believe in Gnosticism.

Is this why the CIA is telling us about remote viewing all of a sudden? Is this why more out-of-body and near-death experiences are being documented? Is this why reptilians are trending? Joe Rogan’s most promoted philosopher Terence McKenna said he saw the lizard people. Even naval intelligence officers are spewing these delusions.

Two years before his death, William Tompkins claimed the Moon is a spaceship command center for shapeshifting reptiles that have enslaved humanity. He also claimed many of our presidents have been these beings in disguise.

Apparently, Trump isn’t though. Did Tompkins really believe what he was saying? It doesn’t matter. The people who read his book did. And this is the agenda. It seems they preparing us for the “enlightenment” and “freedom” offered by the Gnostic Antichrist religion.

It seems they are trying to make us despair and lose faith in a personal creator, or even make us hate Him. Even if earth feels like a prison sometimes, for the broken hearted and repentant person, it’s only a quick and easy exile compared to an eternity with the True God.”

Nick hits on what I have been sharing, teaching, and promoting for all of my spiritual “career” and includes some details I did not previously know, especially concerning what Carlos Castaneda and Robert Monroe experienced while out of body. You can read about my experiences on the Astral with Carlos Castaneda, that being my only real knowledge of the man.

Carlos Castaneda in the Garden

Carlos Castaneda in the Garden

Like all things I say, some won’t believe me when I say this: I have never before seen pictures of, read of, heard about in depth or studied a single aspect of Carlos Castaneda.

I couldn’t have known what Carlos or Monroe experienced, because I have never researched them. I am, however, absolutely of the teaching that we should not spiritually force ourselves in any way, as you’ve heard me say many a times, expounded upon in this recent post.

Profound Spiritual Experiences

Profound Spiritual Experiences

People are often starving for a glimpse of the Good, True, and Beautiful. Their lives scream to them of the pointless and meaningless and their hearts yearn for what all hearts know is real: the Divine and Immaterial.

Read full story

Demons and dark entities especially would love to show you only a slice of reality, and only that slice that serves them and their goals, which is to debase you fully and take away all hope in your ultimate upliftment and salvation.

Jesus Christ did not tell you you must be a Christian, Christianity didn’t even exist. Jesus Christ told you not to listen to demons and their servants who tell you that your salvation is difficult to obtain, only available through them or certain human pathways, or only available through a church. Jesus Christ told you to believe in yourself as a Son of God and to stand in that sovereignty, understanding that you were fallen but could rise, through humility and the choice to be an instrument of God’s Will. God is not a Christian, old, bearded man in the sky, God is the energy and Being of Creation and is the purity of which you only know the smallest reflection, here in a fallen state.

And how kind and loving of God to create, through Christ, the place in which you could find yourself, grow, and choose to come back to the Light. This is the matrix of the physical Universe in which you exist. The alternative is that you follow your original fallen choice to separate from God, therefore permanently falling into delusional, ego-filled, defiant and immature Hell, an endless torment of your own making. Worse, you could become nothingness, forever.

You weren’t sent here against your will, you are not trapped here against your will, you were allowed this opportunity to purify yourself through free will, to submit your tiny and distorted fallen will to God’s Will, and to return to Oneness with God, which is often presented as eternity in Heaven. And it is.

Here is what I have been told by the Spiritual Ancestors, of which the primary is Jesus, about this topic.

Enjoy.


“Some of you are the Fallen, specifically of a time and place of rebellion, when you felt you were protecting innocence and freedom. The truth in your hearts and your true purpose remains protecting innocence, with a powerful dedication to freedom. You see, then, that nothing has changed of your essence, though you’ve traveled through many lifetimes in order to release in yourselves that which has brought you great suffering.
