Have you had a Paradigm Shift and if so please describe it?

When my consciousness - my thinking - was opened to spiritual things and the fact / notion that "we are spiritual beings having a human experience", I realised I could never go back to looking at the world scene as I did before that revelation. It completely changes one's outlook. One's way of looking at the world and the universe immediately becomes more universal, less confined to the groups and the knowledge that one had before. When you realise that "All Life Is One", the living beings and creatures around you take on a greater significance; you begin to realise that they are part of you, you are part of them... and they should be considered as kin. And that every living thing has a place, has a contribution to make, and to be honoured.

Working with plants and nature, I found that all living things: plants, animals, insects and people repond to each other and I came to realise this inter-action must be tied to the common source. Effectively making us all as one, connected through our struggle and love of life replaying over and over again. We need each other to survive and we need the freedom that the source entitles us to make it happen. We are one.

Yes I used to think that I need to love God more..now I realised I just need to discover how much he loves me!

I dont even know what a paradigm shift is ? Sorry ? I never heard of it?

Yeah, I had to drink lots of coffee to stay awake. It was from 11pm to 7 am.

I'm with YouNeverKnow - mine was at 10h50am and weighed 3.5kgs...
It was the most beautiful indescribable moment.

I haven't paid attention to all the shifts I've had over time.

But I actively seek them out, the moment where my whole belief system can be turned upside down by a single revelation is akin to a mental ****** for me. =)

Mine came 12 years ago when I "was the light" and realized that Religion was nothing more than man's attempt to exert power and control over other men/women and nothing to do w/ God.

A paradigm shift is a fundamental change in the way you think.

I have had one or two, but it's personal to me so I don't discuss it.

The worst economy in 75 years tends to cause paradigm shifts on a daily basis.
