<p><a target="_self" href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/410439045?profile=original"><img class="align-left" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/410439045?profile=original" width="106"></a>As children we are constantly experiencing a state of wonderment. This frequency allows us to completely immerse ourselves joyfully in each new experience. There is no fear, there is no guilt, there is no resistance at all to the moment. We are just energetically, consciously, emotionally wide open to what we are experiencing. Some of the most touching and inspirational moments of my life have been those where I’ve witnessed my niece’s full-throttle sense of wonderment. It is awe-inspiring how she and other children give themselves over fully to each new experience.</p>
<p>Once, when I was riding in a car with a friend of my husband’s, I became consciously aware of how he was energetically experiencing the scenery around him. There was light in his eyes, excitement in his energy field, and the vibration of joy was flowing off him in waves, striking my own energy and infusing me with a similar emotion. It was then that I consciously recognized the energy he was experiencing … it was wonderment! In that moment I was shocked to realize that I hadn’t truly been living in a space of wonderment for some time.</p>
<p>In looking back, I could remember being in wonderment for years when experiencing my conscious awakening in childhood and then for years while growing up and then for years while experiencing my spiritual awakening after moving to Florida and then for years while experiencing the events written about in my book and then energetically experienced throughout the writing of my book. In the present moment I couldn’t remember when my sense of wonderment slipped behind the shadowy veil of “what now” or “watch out, this is similar to that other experience” or “same old, same old—I’ve seen this before.”</p>
<p>This grown man, sitting next to me, was perfectly experiencing the child-like abandon of wonderment, triggering a recognition in me that his sense of wonderment had never escaped him. I found myself falling completely in love with the vibration he was experiencing to the point that I began to cry. My tears were tears of recognition of what I deeply love about my true nature of fearless, open abandon, and optimism when facing a new experience. In that moment I came home to myself in a way that awakened me to the loss we can all sometimes experience as we learn.</p>
<p>As we are learning we gain knowledge or experience, but our sense of wonderment can be the sacrifice of lost naivety or innocence. Never should we lose one ounce of our innocence or our sense of wonderment. It should be the light that shines before us, greeting each new day, each new experience, each new person. Instead we allow shadows of our disappointment or pain or fear to guide us. Is there anything sadder than those who have lost what is only natural to all of us? I cannot imagine anything more reflective of our acquiescence to the experiences of life than relinquishing our sense of wonderment to the bygone days of youth.</p>
<p>Even now I realize that I must sometimes reach deeply inside through my heart to pull the energy of wonderment from the shadows of my yesterday and place it squarely in front of my consciousness, my heart, and how I move through my life. Then, as the energy of wonderment strikes my mind and my heart, there is a wondrous burst of joy and excitement, and I realize I am home to me once more and find myself smiling and enthusiastically looking forward to my approaching day. <i>What will I experience? Who will I meet? What great adventure will begin today? What magic does this day hold? What pearl of wisdom, act of friendship, or gift of abundance will I experience?</i></p>
<p>It is then, at that very moment, that I realize I have vanquished the shadows that hold me back and I am my true self once more<i> </i>… that little girl filled with joy, optimism, and wonderment—ready for whatever the day and each new experience holds.</p>
<p>Reach in, dear ones, and connect with the wonderment that is your true nature and embrace it in warmth and love, allowing it to guide your day, your choices, and your life. Smile with all your heart at the day before you, knowing wonderment is your purest and most joyful companion! Blessings.</p>Our Subconscious is the Gateway to Divine All-Knowingnesstag:carolromine.com,2012-10-23:6598727:BlogPost:10042012-10-23T12:30:00.000ZCarol Rominehttps://carolromine.com/profile/1ywori1zsxhbf

It may be due to subconscious emotional blocks. Releasing subconscious emotional blocks is a key component of manifesting our desires, yet it is often overlooked.</p>

<p>Have you <i><a target="_self" href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/410439084?profile=original"><img class="align-left" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/410439084?profile=original" width="131"></a></i>ever wondered why affirmations, conscious intentions, positive thinking, and creative visualizations don't seem to yield your heart-felt intentions? It may be due to subconscious emotional blocks. Releasing subconscious emotional blocks is a key component of manifesting our desires, yet it is often overlooked.</p>
<p>If you have any subconscious emotional blocks that are not congruent (in harmony) with your intentions, you will be hard pressed to manifest your dreams, no matter how diligently you utilize any tool of conscious intention. Much like an arm wrestling contest, any pre-existing subconscious emotional block will triumph over even our most ardent conscious intentions. </p>
<p>Forever it would seem, our subconscious mind has been perceived as our “mysterious us,” as an understanding of its true nature has not only eluded us but also science.</p>
<p>The term “subconscious mind” is a layperson’s replacement for the term “unconscious mind” that the academic and scientific community avoid using as it is considered to be an imprecise definition. In actuality, there is no difference between unconscious and subconscious. They are energetically, identically the same and can be used interchangeably.</p>
<p>In order to solve the mystery of our subconscious, we need to step away from the traditional way the subconscious (unconscious) has been characterized by poets, scientists, doctors, philosophers, etc. and shed new light on the true nature and role of our subconscious.</p>
<p>The term “unconscious mind” was coined in the 18th century by German philosopher Friedrich Schelling, but it was Sigmund Freud who developed and popularized this term through the study of psychoanalysis in the late 1890s and early 1900s.</p>
<p>Freud believed our unconscious mind to be nothing more than a repository for our socially unacceptable ideas or desires, repressed traumatic memories or emotions, and that our libido (sexual drive) is solely responsible for forming our core personality. </p>
<p>Carl Jung, the founder of analytical psychology, approached our unconscious mind from a different perspective in that he, like Freud, believed that we have a personal unconscious; but, unlike Freud, Jung also believed that we have a collective unconscious. To Jung the collective unconscious was the part of our unconscious mind that contained ideas and memories inherited from our ancestors, as well as limitless archetypes (ancient images such as the persona, the shadow, the wise old man, the hero, etc. that the entire collective shares). Jung also believed that life has a spiritual purpose beyond materialistic goals, that the core of our human psyche is religious in nature, and that our main purpose is to discover and fulfill our intrinsic potential. Jung believed “individuation” to be a transformative journey to simultaneously meet self and the Divine—a journey that is the mystical core of all religions. Jung’s concept of individuation is centered around the belief that in order for someone to be whole, they must pull the unconscious into consciousness while allowing those two forces to maintain their autonomy. In his approach to analytical psychology, Jung explored Eastern and Western philosophy and religions, astrology, sociology, and the arts, as Jung believed that spiritual experiences were crucial to our overall sense of well-being and that some cures could only be found through personal spiritual events. It is no wonder Carl Jung was viewed by many to be a mystic, as it is clearly evident that Jung was influenced by transcendent mystical thoughts and experiences in his approach to understanding and healing the human psyche.</p>
<p>We must keep in mind that the study of the subconscious (unconscious) mind is relatively new and was originally approached as a tool to treat the human psyche by Freud, Jung, and others through “interpretation” approaches such as dream analysis, meditation, random association, verbal (Freudian) slips, etc.</p>
<p>Neither Freud’s nor Jung’s perspective captures the true profundity of our subconscious mind. In actuality, our subconscious mind stores all our experiences, thoughts, and emotions; acts as a gatekeeper of that information; and releases that information when and as appropriate to our well-being. But even more extraordinary, our subconscious mind is not just ours alone. Our subconscious mind is <em>simultaneously</em> the universal collective unconscious. Not the “collective unconscious” described by Jung, limited to “collective” personas, imprints and images. But a collective unconscious that is in actuality identically the same in energetic essence as Divine "all-knowing" consciousness. Not only does our subconscious mind store all knowledge: past, present, and even future—it also stores the absolute knowing of everything that is, was, or will be. </p>
<p>How is this possible? It is because we are all simultaneously experiencing the same one inseparable, indivisible Divine Consciousness. Thus, anything that is, was, or will be can be perceived through energetically interacting with our very own subconscious mind. This perfectly explains why some people are able to perceive past, present, and future events, as well as thoughts, impressions, or information about people they don’t even know<i> </i>… people who are sometimes separated by many miles—or even death. Sensitives or “psychics” are merely tapping into the collective unconscious—that divine all-knowingness that is simultaneously “known” within each of us, disguised as our mysterious subconscious mind.</p>
<p>Even more mind blowing, but it is absolutely true, is that the true nature of Divine Consciousness is omnipresent in ALL states of awareness, so there is no energetic difference between higher conscious, subconscious, unconscious, human conscious, or Divine Conscious awareness. They are all identically the same all-knowing Divine energy. Our conscious perception views them as different or separate because we are unable to consciously perceive the true nature of Divine Energy in that it simultaneously exists everywhere and in everything as identically the same inseparable, energetic beingness. Basically, we have fallen asleep to truth of our own divine nature as well as the divine nature of everything and we are even now in the processing of awakening from the dream of misperception.</p>
<p>Simply stated, “Our Subconscious is the Gateway to Divine All-Knowingness.” Phenomenal<i> </i>… but absolutely true. This was verified not only through on-going Divine interaction throughout my life, but also through my subconscious work utilizing Nero-Emotional Technique (N.E.T.), as shared in “Part 2” of my book.</p>
<p>Most importantly, we are not “in” Divinity nor is Divinity “in” us. The term “in” implies parts. Divine energy has no parts. In actuality, we and Divinity are identically, simultaneously the same energetic, all-knowing, all-loving inseparable, indivisible Divine Beingness. These concepts and much more about who we are and how all of this really works is presented in my book “<em>Avatars of Consciousness Awaken to Your Divine Destiny</em>, “ which I believe is a must read for anyone seeking to consciously awaken to the true nature of themselves, divine energy, and the universe in which they live.</p>
<p>In actuality, the role of our subconscious mind is not to hold emotional blocks as a way of keeping us from experiencing our heart-felt dreams and intentions. The true role of our subconscious is to help us become consciously aware of thoughts or emotions locked within our consciousness that are energetically incongruent with our true divine nature. Think of it as though our subconscious emotional blocks exist through our erroneous perceptions about the truth of ourselves in relation to divine energy and each other. Once we begin to engage and dialogue with our own subconscious mind, we will not only understand this phenomenal transformational tool at our disposal, but we will better consciously embrace the true divine intention behind the creation of collective human consciousness in that “<i>We are not here to evolve</i><i> … but to remember what we already are</i>.” Accessing our own subconscious mind will help us to remember what is already “know” deeply within each and every one of us.</p>
<p>Just how do we connect and engage in dialogue with our Divine all-knowing subconscious mind? For me, it was through N.E.T., but there are other tools and techniques available that will be showcased and discussed in future blogs, workshops, and on my radio program, “<i>Awakening the Divine Conscious You™</i>” on WebTalkRadio.net.</p>
<p>Our subconscious is far more than an isolated aspect of our consciousness housing our suppressed desires and individual thoughts, emotions, and memories. It truth, our subconscious holds the key through which we are better able to live our lives more joyfully while manifesting new realities and discovering and awakening our ultimate Divine destiny.</p>
<p><u>NOTE</u>: If you are interested in learning more about our extraordinary subconscious mind and the true nature of us, divine energy, and our universe please read “<i>Avatars of Consciousness Awaken to Your Divine Destiny</i>,” and listen to my recent radio program, entitled, “<i>Awakening The Divine Conscious You™</i><i>—Dialoguing with Your Enigmatic Subconscious Mind</i><i> … The Mysterious Us</i>” as my guest Angela King, AP, DOM and I engage in a conversation that removes the “woo woo” surrounding our mysterious subconscious mind.</p>

<p>I’m thrilled to be able to share my message through this media platform and extend my gratitude to Mr. Brad Saul, the President of Matrix Media, Inc. for his confidence and support in extending me this opportunity.</p>
<p>The conscious intention of this radio program is to take the “woo woo” out of the more mystical, spiritual, energetic, and quantum aspects of our true nature; connect the dots between our perceived physical reality world and the true nature of ourselves, each other, divine energy, and everything; and bridge spirituality and science in a way that is understandable, interesting, inspirational, and even mind blowing. All of which is intended to shift your consciousness and help you to awaken and remember the ultimate truth that has been forgotten—a truth never before revealed to humanity by Divinity, divinely intended to be happening at this time for mankind.</p>
<p>My conscious intention is that this radio program will not only share fascinating topics and present a new way of looking at yourselves, your lives, your realities, and the Divine, but also help you to more consciously understand how it relates to everyone and everything by tying it to the paradigm-shattering ultimate truth presented in my book, experienced through my own personal journey of enlightenment. In this way, you will be able to choose whether or not the topic warrants further exploration in order for you to incorporate or utilize this information to help you transform not only what you are living (your experiences) but also the way you are living (your attitude, thoughts, and emotions.)</p>
<p>At the age of four, I began experiencing direct transcendent encounters with Divinity and Angels that awakened my consciousness, revealed the ultimate divine truth behind the creation of collective human consciousness, and defined the path of mysticism that I have forever followed. These direct Divine interactions, profound mystical/paranormal experiences, and higher conscious insights have been on-going throughout my life<i> </i>… an extraordinary life orchestrated by Divinity to unfold just as it has in order that my life serve as living verification of the ultimate truth that was revealed to me in childhood—a truth that is known within each and every one of us that we only need awaken to in order for us to remember. This is a consciousness-shifting truth that will prove to be the new paradigm in our world, and our remembrance of this truth will confirm the innate ability that each of us possesses to transcend human conscious barriers and consciously bring forth and utilize our own Divine All-Knowingness.</p>
<p>This ultimate truth, revealed in my book “<em>Avatars of Consciousness Awaken to Your Divine Destiny</em>,” is the entire purpose for the creation of collective human consciousness and it is being revealed by Divinity now as part of the divine blueprint of our awakening, forever shifting our consciousness and our reality. In actuality, we are not a “part” of the shift occurring in collective human consciousness … WE ARE THE SHIFT.</p>
<p>Please join me in this ground-breaking radio program as I converse and interact with guest authors and experts in a variety of spiritual, scientific, and energetic fields in order to open up new frontiers in conscious awareness and connect the dots in a personal way where you consciously awaken to your True Self.</p>
<p>By discovering the ultimate truth of who you truly are and the divine intention behind why you are experiencing life, you’ll learn to perceive yourself and everything as it truly is rather than as how it appears, shifting your consciousness, and <i>Awakening the Divine Conscious You</i>™. Blessings of love, light, truth, abundance, and peace.</p>The Disparity of Belief vs. The Unity of Truthtag:carolromine.com,2012-09-27:6598727:BlogPost:10032012-09-27T15:00:00.000ZCarol Rominehttps://carolromine.com/profile/1ywori1zsxhbf

<p><a target="_self" href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/410439028?profile=original"><img class="align-left" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/410439028?profile=original" height="157" width="170"></a>We live in a world delineated by beliefs. The belief that we are merely physical, limited to human conscious form. The belief that we are spiritual, unlimited eternal essence. The belief that our football team is the only team worth supporting. The belief that republicans are in the pocket of big business and only care about profits. The belief that democrats aren't really advocates for the common man, but rather manipulating people for votes and political gain. The belief that atheists are bad people because they don’t believe in God. The belief that only the members of our particular religious group will go to heaven.</p>
<p>On and on our beliefs pour through our hearts and our consciousness creating our reality<i> </i>… shaping our world, defining our lives.</p>
<p>It is a sad fact that our beliefs do not unite us—nor will they ever. Eventually our beliefs will separate all of us from ourselves, divine energy, and each other, as only ultimate truth can ever truly unite us. We claim we seek truth, but do we really seek truth or merely the comfort of those who share our beliefs? Our beliefs are shaped by our cultural background, our spiritual perceptions, our physical reality, and our responses to our past, present, and future experiences. But pure truth is not colored by anything of the past, present, or future. Truth stands purely in its own light and is never altered nor contingent upon whether we believe it or not. <i>Truth just is</i>.</p>
<p>As difficult as it is for us to accept, our beliefs may well be limiting us from experiencing our True Self and the unity we seek as an individual and as a collective consciousness. Truth is a mirror that reflects our beingness, our essence, back to us through what we perceive, express, and experience. But if that truth is skewed by where we are standing in our own conscious awakening in relation to pure truth, then truth is not truth but rather a misperception, a distortion of truth, or a lie.</p>
<p>Any time we are standing outside of the truth of our pure divine beingness, then we are experiencing a multi-dimensional lie, defined by our beliefs. We do not perceive in relation to everything that is ... we, as human beings, perceive in relation to everything that is known within us. And if we do not yet know the truth of our divine beingness, then our perceptions are based upon an erroneous foundation.</p>
<p>We believe that we are separating ourselves from those who do not share our beliefs, but in reality we are separating ourselves not only from others but also from our own true divine self.</p>
<p>How many of us have been shocked by the news of one football fan killing another fan from an opposing team? Initially, we say, “Who could be so crazy as to do such a thing?” We cannot imagine how anyone could kill another person for supporting a different team. After all, it’s only a game. But in actuality, they weren’t killed for supporting another team. They were killed for their beliefs. And if, for a minute, you can’t imagine how anyone can be killed for their beliefs, just turn your thoughts to the two most emotionally-charged beliefs that have killed millions of people throughout the history of mankind: religion and politics. The most tragic example for our country is the Civil War where even brother fought against brother for a belief. Or the long bloodshed that occurred between Protestants and Catholics in Europe. When God is only the pure vibration of love, what true God would want this kind of bloodshed? In truth, God did not kill these people, human beings did. Why? Because they were still experiencing the misperception of separation that has permeated our consciousness since the creation of collective human consciousness. </p>
<p>Our beliefs define us. But should they? We take offense when someone doesn’t believe what we believe as we view it as a blow against our perceived “self.” In actuality, all beliefs in physical reality are lies. Ultimate truth is that we, each other, divinity, our planet, our universe, and all conscious dimensions are merely perceptions and reflections of divine consciousness, as there is ONLY ONE INSEPARABLE, INDIVISIBLE DIVINE ENERGY that is simultaneously the identical consciousness of everything we see, touch, experience, and share. So, in effect when we harm or belittle or even kill another, we are killing our own DIVINE SELF, as we are all identically the same one divine energy. Most importantly, the entire purpose of the shift in consciousness we are now experiencing on this planet is to consciously recognize that Divinity is not “in” us or we “in” divinity. That perception epitomizes the foundation of our misperception. There is no “in.” In implies parts and there are no parts in divine energy ... ever. In truth, we and divinity are identically the same one, inseparable Divine Conscious Energy. </p>
<p>Though we can often become arrogant in our spiritual awakening and condemn those who do not share our believes, in truth, our essence cannot shine brightest through a fragmented, deluded perception of self—no matter how spiritually or consciously awakened we perceive ourselves to be. Rather, the truth of our essence shines most vibrantly and purely when we respect each other and LOVE each other as the same divine energy, trusting and knowing that our individual perceptions and beliefs are temporary and will naturally continue to fall away as we awaken and remember the ultimate truth of our divine nature. </p>
<p>So as we move through our lives, if we meet another that does not share our beliefs, it is because their unique path has unfolded in a different way than ours and they are struggling, the same as we, to bring forth their true essence. Honor them and their path, which is simultaneously the same as our path because it is unfolding through the same one divine consciousness, and interact with them in love, respect, and support for them as an energetic essence. Then look deeper within your own self and question what beliefs are separating you not only from others, but also from your own True Self. Then you will have removed yet another “fabricated” perception of ultimate truth, born out of your own divine awakening from the dream of misperception we all are simultaneously experiencing.</p>
<p>Imagine that when you meet someone of opposing beliefs, one of you represents a red pencil and one of you represents a blue pencil. Try to hold the conscious intention to be a purple pencil, as purple is the color that results when red and blue are combined as one color. No matter how it may appear to the contrary, keep hold of your conscious knowingness that red and blue are identically the same divine conscious energy, reflecting through the uniqueness of one’s own prism of perception. Then let that conscious knowing and the vibration of love guide your interactions so that the unity of truth dispels the disparity of beliefs and energetically unites even those who appear to be standing on opposite sides of an issue. In this way, we learn to work through the fragmented perception of divine truth when perceiving through our more limited human conscious mind.</p>
<p>Trust and know that eventually all of us will awaken and remember ultimate divine truth, regardless of how it may now appear when reflecting through the prism of individual and collective human consciousness. </p>
<p>Blessings of peace that all of us would learn to love each other no matter how the truth of our pure divine essence is reflecting in this physical, matter based world.</p>

<p>Although it was certainly a time I anticipated many times over the past year or so, its arrival was unexpected. Why…</p>
<p><a target="_self" href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/410439167?profile=original"><img class="align-left" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/410439167?profile=original" width="133"></a>It is June 20th and my mind is abuzz with thoughts and my heart filled with hope as the book that has been in the process of being created—through the living of my life and my experiences with divine energy—has physically manifested in the world!</p>
<p>Although it was certainly a time I anticipated many times over the past year or so, its arrival was unexpected. Why unexpected? Because I had not expected the book to go “live” so soon after signing off on the galley prints.</p>
<p>Sitting here in a bubble of joy while simultaneously feeling surprised at the book’s arrival in the world, I am reminded of a conversation a few months ago with my friend, Ellen. We were discussing the unexpected delays encountered in bringing this book forward and my intention to find the perfect date for the book’s unfoldment in physical reality. True to her calm nature, Ellen imparted the following words that helped me relinquish control back to divine intention, <i>“Carol, don’t worry about anything, as this book will be born when it is ready</i>.”</p>
<p>I had chosen July 28th as the book’s birthday, as that was the date I had targeted for book launch<i> </i>… obviously, the book had other plans. I find it interesting that the date of the book’s arrival (June 20th) is the summer solstice, which is the longest day of the year and when the sun is at its zenith. It feels energetically right to me that a book that is divinely intended to consciously “awaken” us to our true nature would be born on a day that the physical sun is at its highest point in our sky. To me it is a sign that this book has indeed been born on its divinely intended day, but as I phone Ellen to share the joyful news, little waves of panic were breaking through my mind. Ellen shared her thoughts that I might just be feeling a little <i>frightfully overjoyed</i><i> </i>… which is completely normal considering how hard I’ve worked and that I was now entering a new, unknown phase in my life.</p>
<p>Frightfully overjoyed is a term with which I am well acquainted from my subconscious work with Angela. It basically means that I am simultaneously feeling completely overjoyed while also working through something about the experience that is triggering an emotional response of fear.</p>
<p>Upon reflection, I was initially feeling a little tinge of fright about the situation. But now I’m consciously intending to set aside my “frightful” feelings—feelings we sometimes encounter when anticipating the unknown—and I am fully and enthusiastically embracing the “overjoyed” feelings triggered by this wonderful experience.</p>
<p>Why? Because a beautiful book came into being today<i> </i>… a book that I know will touch many, many lives and is a crucial component of the shift in consciousness divinely intended for all of us to experience. This book will help people better understand themselves and their own conscious beingness as well as what has been divinely intended for all of us to experience through the creation of collective human consciousness, as it is a book that embodies and explains the “shift” in consciousness we are all in the process of experiencing. Most importantly, this is not a book intended for only a select few. This book reveals our truth as a collective—a truth that helps us to more consciously connect with our true self while simultaneously recognizing that we are always energetically connected to everything and everyone. Then once we consciously realize the true nature of ourselves and our universe, it will be easier for us to release misperception and fear and embrace love and spiritual unity<i> </i>… and that is a beautiful awakening for us individually and as a collective.</p>
<p>This book simultaneously captures the extraordinary journey of my awakening and remembrance of <i>divine all-knowingness</i> held deeply within my consciousness since childhood while revealing the story of all of us as collective human consciousness.</p>
<p>Today my heart, my mind, and my spirit are at peace because I know that this book has manifested now, at this time in our human conscious unfoldment, because now is the time divinely intended for us to <i>consciously know</i>. Why? Because we are more fully conscious now than ever before<i> </i>… energetically and consciously ready to understand and to embrace the phenomenal truth of our divine beingness.</p>
<p><b>HAPPY BIRTHDAY</b>, “<i>Avatars of Consciousness Awaken to Your Divine Destiny</i>”! ... My heartfelt intention is that every moment of your existence in the world will be a blessing for all to experience and share with themselves and each other, and that the divine message energetically conveyed through your words and higher (divine) conscious intention will help ignite the “<i>reconciliation of mankind</i>” as spoken of by the angel in my childhood so that we will truly live, love, and express in this dimension and all others as <i>one</i> <i>divine energy,</i> consciously recognizing that, <i>“We are one consciousness … one light, expressing through the multi-faceted prism of our own essence.”</i></p>
<p>This is my birthday wish for you, dear book<i> </i>… and for all of us.</p>Who Am I? …tag:carolromine.com,2012-06-01:6598727:BlogPost:11032012-06-01T13:30:00.000ZCarol Rominehttps://carolromine.com/profile/1ywori1zsxhbf

<ul>
<li>Who am I?</li>
<li>What am I, really, at the core of my being?</li>
<li>How did I come to be?</li>
<li>Why am I here—what is the ultimate purpose of life?</li>
<li>Is anything real in the sense that it absolutely exists—or is everything really nothingness?</li>
<li>What is the true nature of divine energy—what is my relationship with divinity?
<ul>
<li>If everything is divine energy and divinity is perfect, then we, too, must be perfect. And if we are already perfect, then why did we enter human consciousness in the first place—what is the real reason we are incarnated in human form?</li>
</ul> </li>
<li>If we are all truly one being, then why are we experiencing separation?</li>
<li>What makes it energetically possible for me to experience quantum, paranormal reality while living in a human form in a dimension defined by the laws of classical physics?</li>
<li>What is time and space—does it really exist?</li>
<li>How did our universe begin—and where does it end?</li>
<li>If there is a shift in consciousness occurring, why is it occurring—what is the purpose?</li>
<li>What is the difference between fate and free will?</li>
<li>Do I have a choice in what I experience or is everything pre-determined?</li>
<li>Do conscious intentions really work—can consciousness affect matter and alter the reality that manifests?</li>
<li>How can I be in human form and human consciousness, yet simultaneously experience other states of consciousness—alternate realities?</li>
<li>What makes it possible for me to experience “consciousness” even when I am “unconscious” in surgery or in dreams?</li>
<li>Is my life “real” or am I really just experiencing a manifestation of consciousness—such as what I experience when dreaming <i>…</i> which feels absolutely real to me when I am experiencing it even though it is not “real” at all?</li>
<li>Does consciousness continue after death?</li>
<li><i>… Just what is reality?</i></li>
<li><i>… What is</i> <i>consciousness?</i></li>
</ul>
<p>Some of these questions began in early childhood, while others began as I aged, experienced, and learned. But always the desire to know—to understand—the mystery of us, divinity, and our universe was at the forefront of my consciousness.</p>
<p>An experience when I was 4 years old and nearly died during tonsil surgery was the beginning of my search. During surgery, I experienced a spontaneous state of altered consciousness where I was directly communicating with a Benevolent presence in a place of blissful love, peaceful perfection, and absolute stillness. This experience occurred when I was “unconscious” on an operating table, yet I was fully consciously aware that I was experiencing direct energetic interaction with a divine presence. I was <i>simultaneously aware</i> of both states of consciousness.</p>
<p>When I awakened from the anesthesia, I not only vividly remembered this experience but I also consciously realized that something was very different in my life, as there were now light-filled, beautiful beings of love that walked beside me and communicated with me through my thoughts and through my feelings … benevolent beings I recognized from my experience during surgery. I did not realize until later that the love-filled beings were angels—and the Benevolent presence was what I would come to call God. But I did know that no matter what you call divine Benevolence, it absolutely does exist. It is a conscious vibration of love that overwhelms your senses with love, peace, connectedness, and a sense of belonging that is so absolute it is unequaled by anything known in this world. It is the purest and most connected sense of <i>being home</i> that one could ever imagine.</p>
<p>From this point forward, I sought to understand what I had experienced and how I could return to that Benevolent energy and that place of bliss. Then when I was 9 years old, I experienced a transcendent event—an event that forever defined my life. As I gazed deeply into the clouds, I began thinking about God and life and how everything really works—willing myself to know. (My young mind thought that if I just concentrated with all my might on this big mystery, I would solve it.) Then, a split second later, I experienced an energetic thought directly from Benevolence that asked, “<i>Do you really want to know?</i>” I answered with an emphatic “<i>Yes!</i>” from every part of my being.</p>
<p>Everything instantly shifted and I found myself experiencing a transcendent state of consciousness where I was once more energetically interacting and consciously communing with divinity. There were no words or images. There was only a profoundly blissful state of <i>divine</i> <i>all-knowingness</i> where I and divinity were of the same mind and energetic beingness. There was no space; no time. It was everything all-at-once; yet, also <i>simultaneously</i> nothingness. And in that moment, all of my questions were answered … the allness of everything was just <i>known</i> to me. It was <i>the</i> experience of my life. And although I had been trying to find my way back to this Benevolent presence since I was 4 years old, this experience coalesced all that I had desired—all that I had longed to understand into one focused point of energetic commitment to finding my way back to the divine all-knowingness “consciously” experienced in this profound place recognized within me as my only true home.</p>
<p>After this experience, the energetic doorway to conscious interaction with divine energy remained open<i> </i>… and this benevolent relationship would prove to be the means through which I would eventually <i>remember</i> the ultimate truth known to me during this profound, mystical encounter.</p>
<p>My experiences from age 4 to age 9 formed the cornerstone of my life and forever shaped the path that I would follow. A path that has unfolded the life of a mystic and spiritual teacher interwoven in the expressions of a human being and a soul.</p>
<p>Always I have sought answers from divine consciousness to our most universal questions about our origin, our essence, our purpose; and it took nearly an entire life lived before those answers could unfold in my waking conscious awareness. Why? Because the answers were not just going to be given from divine consciousness through a theory about how all of this works (us, divine energy, and our universe). The answers would be unfolded through the life I was living—through my thoughts, my feelings, and my unusual paranormal and mystical experiences. In this way, the answers revealed through waking conscious awareness would connect the dots of what we all sense inside of ourselves to the experiences we and others live—and why these experiences are possible.</p>
<p>The way in which this story unfolded is perfect for the message being conveyed, as it is energetic proof of the existence of all that we have longed to touch within ourselves and know about the mysteries of whom we are, our origins, our purpose, and our destiny … a story that relates to all of us as collective human consciousness.</p>
<p>Although I’ve experienced an incredible life of energetic awareness and conscious interaction with divine energy, the intention of writing this book was not to showcase my life, but rather to help others become aware of the lives they can be living—the extraordinary lives we can all be living—through understanding our own essence and learning how to more consciously interact with our own higher (divine) consciousness, subconscious mind, and waking conscious awareness to more joyfully experience our lives, enrich us personally, and awaken us consciously to the truth of everything.</p>
<p>I am living the life I am living because of my conscious intention in childhood to know divine Benevolence as deeply and truly as this energetic connection can be know. My thirst to experience the ultimate truth of divine energy awakened me early in life and defined the path of mysticism I would follow—a path centered on a devotion to the divine that is unbounded by religious doctrines or human influence. In truth, that is really the only way we can ever find our way home to that benevolent energy of perfection and love—through our own pure intentions of experiencing love merely for the sake of love. And it is my heart-felt prayer that as I share myself with you—through my waking conscious thoughts, my feelings, my higher (conscious) insights, and my profound experiences—that you, too, would come home to yourself and home to all that is divine benevolence.</p>
<p>The book, <i>“Avatars of Consciousness Awaken to Your Divine Destiny”</i> that unfolded has been written for all mankind, as the truths conveyed do not belong to any specific religion, faith, or culture—for they are our truths, as collective human consciousness. Hopefully, my life and the events I have experienced will help each person to recognize what they may have already experienced or <i>known</i> but did not consciously realize.</p>
<p>Most importantly, this story is unfolding in physical manifestation now, at this time, as part of the divinely designed blueprint of our conscious awakening and remembrance of our true divine nature. We are living at the threshold of an extraordinary time for mankind … a time where spirituality and science will be bridged and conscious understanding of our true nature will shatter our deepest misperceptions about ourselves—shifting our consciousness and reconciling each of us to our true divine nature.</p>
<p>As I look back on the life I have lived, I realize that my life—our lives—is a thread in the divine tapestry that all of us are simultaneously experiencing. Why not pull on that thread and see where it takes you—as a human being, a soul divinity, and a collective consciousness?</p>
<p><i>Avatars of Consciousness Awaken to Your Divine Destiny</i><i> </i>… a destiny more profound than any dream imagined.</p>2012—The Year of Liberationtag:carolromine.com,2011-12-31:6598727:BlogPost:7022011-12-31T07:30:00.000ZCarol Rominehttps://carolromine.com/profile/1ywori1zsxhbf

<p>Higher conscious thoughts begin pouring through my mind as I am being shown that many of us are feeling overwhelmed by the intensity of what we have been experiencing this past year or even longer. It seems that no matter how much we intend it otherwise, we have found ourselves to be fully immersed in an experience that seems unending. This can be anything from a difficult financial situation involving property that will not sell, employment we seek but cannot find, a challenging personal experience with a loved one, a struggle to recuperate our health, or many other types of experiences. We sense that the way has been made clear and change is upon us; yet, on and on the experience continues with no physical verification that the situation holding us as energetic hostage has been relieved, allowing us to move forward in our lives.</p>
<p>In essence, we feel emotionally, physically, mentally, or spiritually bound to a situation that we cannot leave—even if it were possible—as abandoning the situation will only compound the difficulty we are experiencing. We feel bound in a way that we cannot ever before remember as being so energetically constricting … deeply impacting our sense of freedom and our state of mind. </p>
<p>Many of us experiencing this type of static frustration should take heart, for 2012 brings an energetic reprieve—a window of opportunity to change the circumstances that have bound us … even the possibility that we will experience complete liberation. The home we listed will attract a buyer; new employment will be secured; an early retirement package will be offered, affording us the opportunity to relieve the stress of a difficult working situation; surgery will be performed to clear a major health issue—the key to unshackle us will be provided in a way that is unique for our situation.</p>
<p>Our sense of energetic restraint has been amplified by our desire to pursue a different life, causing us to feel as though we are being held captive by the life we have created and the path that we are walking … a path we no longer enjoy, as our soul is calling us to a new life less encumbered by a sense of obligation and more about awakening to our true self. </p>
<p>So when these pockets of relief arrive, it is important for us to recognize them as the cornerstone of our new life, and not just a continuation of the same energy pattern we have been living. For instance, if we undergo heart surgery and we have not been attending to our health (smoking, etc), we may choose to recognize this experience as a platform for creating a new way of living. Or if we have listed our home and a buyer appears, making an offer less than we had hoped, it may be time to release our current home so that we may embrace a path founded on our intention to live a more simplified life … and the energetic, spiritual, emotional relief we will be afforded through this sale will more than counterbalance the diminished financial revenue.</p>
<p>I believe that for many of us who have intended a different way of life, 2012 will provide the energetic means to liberate us from emotional, mental, physical or spiritual entanglements in our current life that prevent us from more freely experiencing our heart-felt intentions. Our bindings will be loosened, and if we recognize it as an opportunity to create a new foundation, those bindings will fall away and we will find ourselves energetically free to embrace our new life … a life that may awaken and align us with our truest destiny path.</p>
<p>Today, as I stand at the threshold between 2011 and 2012, I find myself very excited and optimistic about the year and the life ahead. I am ready to experience my life from the center of my being as my true self, less encumbered by the energy of experiences and circumstances that can cause me to shift my focus and drift off course … aren’t you?</p>
