In mankind’s having passage in the Earth through time, past accounts of historical events of humanity’s activities are recorded by the few historians through hundreds and thousands of years. These “historians” or scribes were hired and paid to write the physical history of the times – and to write according to the directions and desires of the ones who pay the historians/scribes. All scribes of past ages worked for someone and got paid. It was not an educational or academic task. It was a task set forth by the person who either had money or sat upon the throne.

This was true then, and still can be found to be true today – especially at this time in history with the political influence of the owners of the news outlets in regards to how news gets narrated. This is how history gets recorded on this physical Earth. Those with certain points of view, who pay the money, get the stories written and reported according to how those with money want it written or broadcast. Sound familiar? Today, we call it “spin” and “entertainment”, so as to include even fictional (“fake”) accounts, and “alternative” facts of which they offer much “entertainment” to their audience. To sum up, humans during historical times, wrote the history of the times according to the views of the victors who won the war, or who sponsored and payed the scribes.

I mention this, because, we have an interesting situation on this planet, and with the history of mankind on this planet. We really do have two worlds that co-exist at the same time, in the same place on the same planet, (using the Harry Potter fictional series of stories as a metaphor to help understand how this can be.)

There are two worlds on Earth that co-exist. It is very few people who see both of these very real worlds – and make no mistake, both of these worlds are experienced in very, very real ways. What I write here is no fiction. There are two worlds existing simultaneously and not everyone, or rather not a majority are aware or can be aware of the two.

One world is the physical world which everyone participates in via the 5 senses. The tool to experience this world is the physical body – whether it be human, animal, tree, plant, bacteria, rock or anything else physical. The second world is the spiritual world, which coexists in all planes of existence, including coexisting alongside the physical Universe which includes Earth.

HOWEVER, this spiritual world can only be detected by those who are actively involved with spiritual beliefs, PLUS actively interactive with their 6th sense or their spiritual/soul-self. This is also known as “born into the awareness of the spirit/soul”, which is an actual spiritual-plane awakening experience, spiritual awakening manifestation, and recognition of spiritual existence. This spiritual connection is “seen”, “felt”, or “become aware of” only by those who go through this process. Going through this process is only a freewill choice, and can be enhanced or shut down depending on a person’s own attitudes and choices.

I mention this because of this article’s topic being related to Spiritual History or rather, the History of Spiritual activities and events happening alongside events in the physical Earth. It is these spiritual events which are recorded in the Bible, and other recognized/accepted writings through the ages. Spiritual events are part of the “unseen” or “second” world, and have their own historical recordings – one of many records being the Bible – others being the Torah, the Koran, etc. But, the recordings of the spiritual world’s existence and experiences associated with it, don’t perfectly parallel physical history. They don’t perfectly/accurately follow a physical world calendar or timeline. The Spiritual events are spread out over time, with that time being condensed in the Bible and other recordings. This is why many are capable of denying the events in the Bible (and other spiritual books), and consider them to be myths or fiction.

This is why the Bible’s recording of historical events doesn’t completely parallel the physical plane’s recording of historical events. For example, the telling of Noah and the flood centers around the events related to Noah’s spiritual messages to build the Ark and bring animals onto it, then endure a great flood with its ramifications. This event happened, but the physical Earth’s historical accounts that are recorded, don’t coincide or speak of the same timelines. In addition, with this issue, loss of physical historical accounts happened all the time, if any physical historical accounts even ever existed at all.

The Bible and other spiritual holy books don’t give the physical information which would help identify what year, what location, the logistics, accurate details of the animals, etc. for exacting physical proof of the event. That’s not its purpose. In the “Noah” example, the information centers around the spiritual messages that Noah received and how those spiritual messages help Noah and his family to fulfill their task to make it through the flooding. It is the recording of the fulfillment of Spirit interacting with the physical Earth. In essence, the Bible and other books and historical documents, are the recordings of the main examples of Spirit interacting within the physical Earth, but not the recordings of mankind’s day-to-day, year-to-year, physical comings and goings, as historians tended to record.

Spiritual events have their own insertion in a time range or time line, for the purpose of manifesting in the Earth, many times in line with astrological forces. And these events when they come forth and manifest, are not recognized by everyone. They are not advertised, nor are they recorded in history books as mankind’s normal everyday comings and goings are. However, now, in today’s world, they are more and more being written about in books, and presented in conferences, meetings, and spiritual learning gatherings. The percentage of people who are aware of the spiritual presence, experiences, and events, and open to these being real, experience them independently of the world happening around them. The physical world is not the creating force of the spiritual events manifesting. Famous examples of these are the sightings of the Mother of Jesus – Fatima, Medjugorje, Lourdes, as well as Near-Death-Experiences or NDE’s, as well as psychic experiences, plus the many personal individual, spiritual experiences which create controversy and are either believed and/or disbelieved by those who don’t experience spiritual events.

In our day and time, now, there are any number of books and audiovisual recordings sharing the telling of individual spiritual experiences and spiritual events. And there are tens of thousands, if not millions, of NDE’s in which people report having spiritual events happen while having medically died. There are also many hundreds, if not thousands of individuals experiencing a contact or connection with Christ, and other Spiritual Teachers.

One cannot call up and make an appointment to have a spiritual experience of these kinds. Spiritual experiences are not governed by physical world principles or laws. The Spiritual is a world that is not represented by physical anchors in the physical Universe. Yet, there is no plane of existence, including the physical Universe, where the Spiritual world is not it’s mate/partner/parallel world. The Spiritual world is the world from which all other planes come into existence, and one cannot separate Creator or Creative Source from that which is created.

The Biblical/Spiritual accounts that are recorded in the Bible, have been recorded and also passed down, by specific spiritually-aware people and groups, – not by public historians who have little or no spiritual experiences and no awareness of or desire for awareness of Spirit, and are not directed by spiritual motivators. An example of this life situation or spiritual life experience is how the Edgar Cayce readings are recorded, but these are not recorded in the general public’s history recordings. No one learns about Mr. Cayce in their school history books. The psychic records of Edgar Cayce, and many people like him – are privately held and in non-academic books/writings. These and other spiritual events/history which happened among the spiritual world that exists parallel to the general public world are preserved in the spiritual-topic physical recordings of the Bible and many other written forms, through the ages. With this example, individuals everywhere choose for themselves whether they believe that Edgar Cayce was a real psychic. The same is said for beliefs in all manners of spiritual and religious paths – whether a person believes if the psychic, soul or spiritual world and experiences are real.

The two worlds – the physical and the spiritual – don’t blend together much, except through individuals and our personal beliefs, experiences and understanding of spiritual events. The thing to remember is that when wanting proof of the spiritual world, the tendency is: 1. a person never identifies what physical evidence they’ll accept as absolute proof. If they say, “If someone came back from the dead,” they have already NDE’s all over the world, but tend not to accept them. 2. the request or demand for proof tends to be for physical evidence of a non-physical reality.

Therefore, ultimately, the spiritual experience can only be a subjective experience – something within us – which affects how we feel and think within our own individual consciousness.

The physical world’s only connecting link to the spiritual world are the Chakras which exist aligning with the human body, making it possible to experience the 6th sense plane (the spirit body) / spiritual plane within certain circumstances while in a physical body. In turn, again, the spiritual experience is a decidedly subjective experience only… at this point in time.

This principle – of spiritual experiences being subjective – has a purpose as well. The purpose is that it protects the freewill aspect of consciousness. Because it is subjective, happening only within the consciousness of that individual, it is a freewill choice for the individual to decide whether to believe in the spiritual world existence. It remains a choice that can only be made within the person’s heart and mind. The individual faced with experiences identified as “Spiritual Experiences” is the one that defines and makes the identification of it being “Spiritual”. In turn, also the decision whether to continue to believe it is spiritual, even long after the experience has past.

With our venturing into the world of spirit, is it any wonder that there is such controversy? Spiritual experiences happen or don’t based on a lot of different factors – beliefs, willingness, study, desire, open-mindedness, understanding, purpose, a practice of prayer and/or meditation, and many other factors, some of which could be spiritual factors, which we may never know about while living in the physical Universe.

One factor does seem to help though. The decision to have an open-mind and an open-heart. The Bible and other holy documents, mention the willingness to Love. Our human experiences of real love comes hand-in-hand with having an open-mind and an open-heart. Rigidity in our thinking and feeling seems to limit love and limit spiritual learning. With this, rigid thinking/feeling also then tends to limit our ability to bridge the awareness of and experience of two-worlds existing simultaneously in the same time/space. Deciding beforehand, without ever even asking the question of ourselves or asking of a higher consciousness, whether there is more than what we individually hold in our own single mind, happens so often within ourselves and others, that it can take many years and many lifetimes to open to new paradigms and new ways of thinking and feeling.

Deciding to be intolerant of other beliefs, begins/continues a process of closing down the awareness of our self as spirit, while deciding to be tolerant of other’s beliefs begins a process of learning more – even learning more of that which had been hidden within our own personal beliefs – and where our beliefs would take us in our own expansion and evolution of understanding and sincerely practicing our beliefs (which in turn, makes our beliefs alive in the world.)

Like eggs, our own beliefs sometimes need to be opened so that we can realize that we have to dig deeper even into our own beliefs in order to discover what richness had been stuck within the shell – a shell which we thought was all that there was to life. Like seeing the surface of a body of water, rigidly thinking this is all there is to the body of water – we can limit our learning in extremely great ways, until we decide to break the surface and look deeper underneath – where there is the potential for learning about a whole other world we didn’t know existed.

In discovering brand new worlds which have/had always been here, albeit just under the surface, can astound us and amaze us. And of course, this creates the situation again – where our own subjective experience is something we can only share through verbal or mental descriptions, and not by passing the experience onto another for them to internally experience personally and holistically. We can only share things holistically through our psychic / 6th sense – the soul sense.

So, there you have it. We can share the physical world experiences through physical means and we can share the spiritual world experiences through spiritual means. And we experience both of these together within ourselves individually and therefore subjectively.

And when fictional stories come out, like Star Wars and the mentioning of the Force, or Harry Potter and the World of Magic, we can let these stories help us to crack the egg shell, or help us to look beneath the surface of our own possible explorations and learning – the world that is waiting for us to discover – a world which some of us are learning that is within us, and has been within us ready when we are – and all we need to do is be willing to love and learn.

God bless us, Everyone.
