Hi everyone. I am new here, and have relatively recently began discovering my spiritual self. I am 22 years old, started meditating about 3 years ago and found the Law of One a couple months ago. I came across the Ra Material through a twitter rabbit hole which began with alien research and ended with a thread about the Ra Contact and the Law of One. I was instantly very intrigued and have not been able to stop reading or listening to the Law of One books and podcasts.
My spiritual journey "began" by stumbling across the Tibetan Book of Living and Dying at a used book sale a few years ago. This book introduced me to meditation, reincarnation, etc. from a buddhist perspective. Coming from a catholic upbringing, this material blew my mind and I immediately sought more spiritual perspectives. I came across the Bhagavad Gita, Dhammapada, Allan Watts, and now the Law of One books. All of this material has made me feel incredibly free, liberated, and only occasionally overwhelmed with my newfound understanding of the vastness of this beautiful universe. The Law of One material specifically has helped my meditation practice profoundly and cemented meditation as a constant exercise in my life.
I spent years 17-21 addicted to abusing marijuana and nicotine (mainly). My newfound spiritual life has empowered me to overcome these addictive tendencies although I am still a work in progress. This freedom from addiction has opened up great new ways of thinking for me, but I feel I am constantly struggling to find my place in the world because much of my personality was attached to substance use.
Reading through other people's stories in this thread has been very therapeutic for me as they have made me feel much less isolated in my journey. And that is a main reason I am reaching out to the bring4th community. I feel one of my main catalysts in this life is the suffering and pain associated with loneliness. I have great trouble making connections with people and have found myself alone for much of the past 7 years especially. I am sure that many of the people in this community have struggled/struggle with loneliness and I am seeking advice on how I can be of service to others when I have so much trouble connecting with most people.
Love
