This is one of the best posts I have ever read on this topic. It is deeply relatable and confirms many experiences I have had and continue to have on my own journey of unfoldment and spiritual progression.
I studied other cultures and religions at university because even then I knew that Truth was out there for those who would seek it… it just wasn’t likely to be found in one religion or one civilization. I wasn’t about to just accept what I was raised with as the end all, be all.
I have always loved learning about myths, folklore and deities. I love Jesus for what he represents, and that’s hard to explain to people as I’m not a practicing Christian.
I have found so many truths over the years of my exploration. There is inspiration and esoteric knowledge to be found in almost any form if you are open to it. The issue of literalism is so potent, you nailed it on the head with that observation and how the historical details are moot in light of the greater picture.
THIS is the article I have been waiting for that ties all of my own thoughts and experiences up with a bow. Thanks Bernhard. I will be sharing this. ❤️
I have come to the conclusion that the “second coming “ is through us.
My friend became a “born again “ and threw out her crystals, started telling me that yoga was demonic, even posting you tube videos from ex new agers claiming that Jung and shadow work were demonic. When I saw that I wondered if this was not another way of discouraging knowing oneself and encouraging externalisation of “safety”
… handing everything to God is not to me taking responsibility for oneself.
Anyway this article echoes my thinking.. thank you.
Thank you for this article. The timing feels Divine. The last part about whether or not Jesus actually walked the earth and everything else you speak of brought a memory to the surface. I have felt that way for a long time.
This is such an incredible article, thank you. I enjoyed reading it so much and helps bring new levels and depth of understanding to the concepts you share within it. So helpful and very much appreciated as always.
As a kid nothing about religion made sense to me: the middle eastern wars “in the name of God or Allah”; church going Christians who stabbed each other in the back; non-baptized people who were good, kind and generous couldn’t go to heaven? I was raised Christian, but found my way Home first from a WILLINGNESS to seek Truth, and second from spiritual guidance that consistently pointed me inwards. Thank you for your very articulate words.
Thank you, Bernhard. Once again, I enjoy your mixture of clarity, thoroughness, depth, rigour and near lack of animosity.
There are many new Christians in my village, along with a shit-ton of yoga practitioners. Some tensions are now palpable, as some of the Christians own the healthfood store!
May we all meet on the deeper path of true Love, from our radiant hearts, from our inner-guided souls...
Jesus said "... The kingdom is inside of you, and outside of you. When you come to know yourselves, then you will become known, and you will realize that it is you who are the children of the living Father. But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who is that poverty."
This is all very well said and I very much agree. I recently participated in a Christian seminar my neighbor invited me to. Honestly it was a really powerful ministry and brought me closer to God through the Christian framework than I’d ever been before. But then I was given a pamphlet explaining how in order to find true freedom in Christ, it was necessary to renounce all non-Christian spirituality. There was a long list of what I was to renounce, including yoga, astrology, tarot, Buddhism, Hinduism… all of which I have personally found great value in. It was a difficult conversation with my neighbor, who referenced John 14:6 among other passages. I attempted to say basically what you’ve said here in this piece. I am not sure how well I was understood, but we are still friends. Quite an experience.
Useful article and I feel these sentiments! I must say the picture you added was the funniest thing EVER!!
ive had a colorful spiritual journey myself, and can relate to alot your journey and - i also feel God is within -
- i to have had very supernatural spiritual experiences that have been a blessing to my life, for example I been sober for over a year now from Marijuana, the craving left July 19th on a park bench at midnight while praying for my life "I was suicidal" I heard Yeshua being repeated over and over , I never heard that name b4 - ever since that day "addiction " to anything has ceased ⚘️❤️✨️💪
On the other side of the delusional spectrum, there’s the “reincarnation is a trap” and “Earth is a prison planet” black-pill fringe narrative.
Didn’t you teach that in the past 10 years that the matrix control system have been mentioned in various esoteric traditions … did you take it back or change your mind?
Yes, the “matrix control system” and hyperdimensional forces have been referenced in various esoteric traditions using different language and terminology. But Earth is not a “prison planet,” and reincarnation is not a trap. I’ve never claimed either in my work. The Matrix and the hostile forces serve a teaching function within the larger context of the evolution of consciousness.
Its a school not a trap and the path is progression towards union with god … the progression depends on the effort of the seeker in this life or the next and it builds upon the previous life
I find this a very interesting topic. Through close friendships with religious people, their lived experience is for example, weeping in how close they feel to God in prayer, practising service to others, praying for those in distress etc. Some of the kindest, sincere and pure intentioned souls I've met on this planet are religious. Yes dogmatic views, some views I disagree with to my core, but what power are millions of these individuals are connecting to (Genuine question). If praying for them brings a feeling of peace and safety? I'm not religious personally. Curious about this topic so thank you for sharing.

God bless you and thank you Berhnard.

Several years ago I woke up around 3am to the realization that “I AM The Way…” is inside me — that I must journey inward into myself.
That’s when it became crystal clear, experiential, and not theoretical.
I’m relieved to read this.

`It’s about making your life, every thought, action, and breath, an offering to the Divine`. Yes! This is it. ❤️

Absolutely brilliant, Bernhard!!!!!

Tbh i learned these from your older vids

But Earth is not a “prison planet,” and reincarnation is not a trap. I’ve never claimed either in my work.

I've written about it here:

I got it now thanks Bernhard

i thought that control system = prison

Excellent work. This totally resonates with my spiritual experiences. Really appreciate all the background you have provided. Thank you Bernhard.
