The Big Picture

I experience, feel the big picture in very different ways. It is like the saying:

All roads lead to Rome.

The phrase can be understood in the sense of “all possibilities lead to the goal” (Wikipedia). It is the same with the big picture! The more possibilities we exploit, the safer we get to the source.

Sometimes I enter unexpectedly a state where I am connected to everything.

Sometimes it is also detours that lead me to expanded awareness and consciousness. Nature and meditation are good preparations for this. When I am then one with everything, everything is very simple and clear. The personal no longer applies, which is why feelings such as gratitude, being overwhelmed, exultant joy or the like often only arise afterwards. But it can also happen to me that I hear angelic choirs, my heart is expanded into the whole universe or all my cells vibrate ecstatically. I have often experienced such “states”, but I am also often “far away” from them. However, when I am attentive, I always feel this oneness, this connectedness with everything, everywhere I am.

Of course, it wasn’t like that from childhood, but I’ve always strived for the highest happiness and when I’m happy, I just want to pass that on.

Or in other words, what you do to others comes back to you, so I just want to make others happy through compassion and with my innate and learned skills. When I was nine years old, I wanted to become Pope because I believed that as Pope I could change the world for the better. However, I thought that until that happened, the Pope could also get married. Since this is still not the case, I looked for other ways and further education. And now I work as a medium and can sometimes “bring heaven onto earth”.

Two examples of my connection with the “spiritual world”:

When I was 19 years old, I hitchhiked on a hot day in August.. The sky was totally blue, not a single cloud was to be seen. I begged the heavens to cool me down. Then a little cloud formed right in front of the sun. I was grateful and impressed! When I was 29 years old – my older brother had fallen to his death in the Himalayas – we sat in the living room with the whole family and mourned. There was a loud knock on the door and when we looked, no one was there. For my mother and me it was quite clear that my brother had called.

Where does my drive or call come from?

It is the same question why a flower grows, why the sun shines, why the stars pulsate, why a child laughs, or why I am incarnated here.

The Most High is pure love, oneness, wholeness. We can consciously go there every moment and experience stillness and peace, like in the eye of the hurricane. The more this happens, the more the greater whole arises for a person. And the more persons do this, the more the greater whole arises on this planet.
