      The first time I asked these questions I was little, about 5 or 6.. then a few years went by… I asked these questions again.. not really getting any real answers other than those found in religion.my parents couldnt properly answer them, family couldn’t, church leaders, or friends.. over time I stopped asking and eventually told theres no way possible to answer any of these questions so I went about life as if i could make my own purpose and reason for life and just live simply and be a good person..these questions popped back up again for me about 3 or 4 years ago and i felt called to answer them.. got into new age.. that did not work out. Now here I am, feeling that maybe I have found the way to answering those questions. I look foward to studying more and more and eventually being a part of a group. Thank you for these courses.

      When I was a little girl, I had this strange idea that everything and everyone around me was really an illusion and that I was really all alone in the universe. Then when I was around 10 years old, I had a vision that God was all alone and he decided to divide himself into another piece and then make himself forget that that piece was he himself. So he gave himself amnesia to forget and to think that the other being was another being like himself that he could interact and love and never feel alone.  When the final emergence happens, God will then regain his memory and realise that he is really alone again, as we remember that we are really a piece of God.

      1) As a child.

      2) The fear of death.

      At the lose of family and friends a few yours ago.  That made me ask from deep within, “What is the purpose this life? Why are we here?

      First started to question what life was about when I was 15, and it’s still a work in progress
