I guess in a way it was by forgiving everyone that I experienced God... I'll tell you how it happened to me. Now I had my issues. How could I love a terrorist, or a leader that was willing to kill people. So I explored some more. I explored near death experiences I was concerned the most about atheists and their experiences or homosexuals the supposed deviants of the religious world. What I found was amazing, most experienced the same thing. They became spirit and connected to a great spiritual entity. It gave them unconditional love and absolute peace. So this is where I ended up, I thought we all come into this world with innocent spirit or a soul if you will. Uncorrupted by religion, politics, social restrictions and the challenges that life creates for you. So I went to meditate and said to this world, to the universe that I love it. I love all who are in it. I love the innocent spirit that resides in all people, animals, vegetables and minerals. I wish to give my unconditional love to this world and universe. And then the most unbelievable thing happened to me. I connected with the Spirit, the Creator, the Energy that binds the universe. My spirit left my physical body to become one with the Spirit. I was wrapped in unconditional love, peace, bliss and ecstasy. I felt the knowledge of everything, I felt connected to everything that ever existed, did exist and would exist. I never, ever wanted to leave that feeling of pure bliss. I thought I could never love anything more then my husband, but I was wrong, this was the spirit of all things and through it all was the Creator’s energy, that energy was unconditional love. I felt as if the whole universe was pouring love into me, it was the be all and end all of the universe. I knew I had to return to my body but I didn’t want to go. I was at complete peace and wrapped in perfect love. When I returned, my body shook and was covered in sweat. I cried tears of joy so profound I could not stop. I believe! We are all one with the Great Spirit; our soul is this Great Spirit of Love. We are only separated from it by this physical world we use to create in. I know now that anyone can reconnect to this Primal loving energy by giving what we truly are in spirit, Unconditional Love.
