Shamanic journey - Beyond

Maitreya's picture

Hi all.
I wrote a piece once about a shamanic experience i had and several asked me to write down the whole story.
So here i go. As i write it down.. I'll experience it all over again, so that will be neat :)

A friend of mine, Henk, who is not only a great guy, a super friend, but is also a very good Sjaman.

He told me one day, that he had done several Shamanic journey's. Himself and also guiding others.

It all sounded pretty cool, so i asked him to guide me on a shamanic journey as well.
Being a great friend, he immidiatly was into it, so we walked to the back of his garden.

In the back of his garden, there is an open spot, a circel of gras, surrounded by bush, flowers and lots of nature.

He sat next to me and said to me. "close your eyes".

I did..

And as he started talking to me, i saw that i was inside a circel, within a forrest.
I had my eyes closed, but could see it all as clear as if i had my eyes open.
I was somewhere else. Within a split second...

Henk said to me, look around and you'll see a power animal, that is yours.
I couldn't see anything, but jungle, so i started walking towards the jungle.
I opened up the jungle to look further and as i did, i saw a huge bear standing in front of me.
The bear stood right up and was at least 3 meters tall.

I was amazed by the sheer size of the bear and just looked at it.
Then the bear started walking towards me...
With every step the bear took, he went from a huge bear, to a little bear.
Big, small, big, small, big, small..... until he stood at the edge of my circel as a small bear.
I looked at him and he just stood there.

Then i heared Henk say.. "He is your power animal, if you invite him into your circel, he will join you and become one with you. His power will be yours again.".
So i asked the little bear if he'dd like to step into my circel and he did.
I sat down again and the bear sat down beside me, to my right. As a small bear.
Then, i felt that the small bear, just merged with me... and i looked up, to my left.
I saw the sun, very bright and a beam of light came down in me.
The bear, who was in me, travelled up the beam of light into the sun.
It felt very good and releasing.

Then i got up again.
Walked to the border of my circel, stepped out and thrue the jungle.
As i past the jungle wall, i suddenly stood on the beach.
It was such a pleasent feeling, where the sea would touch my feet.

Henk at that point said. Look around, there is another animal here that wants to show you something.
So i looked around and saw that the whol beach and beachline and sea crawled with sea animals.
Just about every animal that exists in the sea was there.
Whales, fish, crabs, dolphins you name it.. it was there...
And i looked and all looked peacefull.. but none of them really got my attention.

Then Henk said.. look closer.
And as i looked down, there was a very tiny jellyfish at my feet.
I started laughing and told this to Henk.
I said.. well there is one small jellyfish here.. but that can't be it !
And as i said that ! the jellyfish grew out of the ocean to enormous proportions....

I said.. Henk.. i think it is the jellyfish...
Then i had to go with the jellyfish, for a swim in the ocean.
(I love swimming !! )
As we were swimming, i was swimming next to the jellyfish and it all felt so comfortable. Just swimming.
Then Whales, orca's and dolphins, joined us and where swimming along with us.

Suddenly a group of huge fish came and started nibbling on one of the tentacles of the jellyfish..
I saw this and thought.. oh my.. they are eating him completely..
I saw the fish eat away a whole tentacle. Then the fish swam away...

I looked amazed at the jellyfish who continiously was swimming as if nothing happened.
Then i saw that the tentacle started growing back on. Within a few seconds, the tentacle was back.
Then i knew.. It was abundance. And that it was me.. I needed not to worry as i am abundance and so will live in abundance.

We kept on swimming and i saw a huge open spot under water with clear white sand. The sun shined thru the water onto the sand and it was a real magical display.
We entered the sand spot and the jellyfish turned up, with his tentacles pointing down.
The jellyfish then drilled his tentacles into the sand and i could here a very deep rumble coming from him..
I asked myself what that was.. and as i did, i was completely in contact with all the creatures of the sea.
I could hear the dolphins, whales, seahorses, orca's and every other sea animal at once. And i talked back at them all, at once. I was totally connected to everything in the ocean.
This lasted for a few seconds... I enjoyed it so much..

Suddenly i stood in the middle of a desert.
There was nothing there.
No water, no life, nothing.
I could see some sand hills in the distance.
A blazing hot sun stood above the earth, just cooking the desert.
It was blazing hot....
I saw a little man, who looked peruan, coming up to me.
As he stood at about 2 meter away from me, i could see he had a huge smile on his face.
He had a staff in his hands, a wooden one, with a little bag hanging from the top.

He just kept smiling at me and then raised his staff.
Then he let go of the staff and it plunged down.
As the staff hit the ground, i heard a very low bang..
The minute the staff hit the ground, i saw life emerge from the ground, where the staff hit the ground.
Grass grew, bushes emerged, trees shoot out of the ground.
I saw life appear everywhere around me. And as i looked to the horizon, i could see how the desert turned in to a living jungle.
I looked at the little man again and noticed butterflies flying around me and i smelt the most amazing scents from beautifull flowers.

When i looked up again, i was in my circle again and the little peruan man was in front of me.
I knew who he was now. I had had a reading years before, where i was told that a peruan man, called "Abu Ra" would come into my life again and was with me.

So now is stood face to face, to Abu Ra, where i was in my circle and he stood just outside of it. He was smiling at me.
I asked Abu Ra if he'dd join me in my circle. He smiled and stepped into my circle.
Abu Ra, walked towards me and kept walking..
He walked right into me and i felt that he turned around, facing the same direction as i was.
So we were now two persons in one space.
I felt that Abu Ra, became one with me and dissolved into me. This felt like i found a piece of me back.

I sat in my circle again and suddenly i looked up and saw an eagle in the sky.
As i saw the eagle. I was the eagle, looking down on myself.
I saw myself sitting in my circle, surrounded by the jungle. And i saw Henk sitting next to me, facing me.
Then i saw that the earth under me, in my circle, started moving. I saw that lava, from the earth was rising and set the earth into motion. I felt this and told Henk. As i told Henk, i was in myself again.
Henk told me, that the earths energy, wanted to become one with me. And that i could allow this, as it would come in my circle.
So i did and invited the earth into my circle..
As i did. I felt the lava, flow into me. It was hot, but it felt very comfortable.
I felt the earths energy swirling thru my body and looked up.
I saw the eagle and as i saw it, i saw the sun above the eagle.
I saw a ray of light, coming from the sun, into the eagle and then beaming down on me.
I felt the energy of the sun, rush into me.
Then the earths energy and the suns energy started to entwine into each other.
I could even see it as all kinds of colours rushed through my body.

Then i looked up again.
I looked at the edge of my circle, still feeling the energies rushing through me.
I saw all the animals, that exist, stacked up against my circle. As if my circle was a cylinder rising up, they where stacked against my circle. All creatures where there. Apes, tigers, lions, zebras.. everything.
I was totally overwhelmed, by all the energies flowing thru me and the sight off all those animals.
But i was clear in my mind and then i invited all animals to join me in my circle...

As i did that, i saw myself again from the perspective of the eagle.
I saw the earths energy running into me, the beam of light from the sun rushing in me and all the animals getting into my circle.
Then i saw that the animals started to swirl around me. And i saw their forms fade into each other as if all their individual energies and forms became as one. I still saw myself sitting in the middle.
The energies of the animals around me started swirling around me faster and faster.
I saw that the density of the energy became lighter and the enrgy started to be light.
The faster the energys swirled around me, the lighter they became and the brighter they shined.

Then i saw as if my circle exploded and an atomic explosion occurd. I saw white light shoot into every direction and saw a beam of pure white light shoot up from me, towards the sun and down into the earth.
I heard an ear defning bang. It was as if i heard the big bang. But it was so load, that i cannot discribe it..

At that point, i was me again. Sitting in my circle.
Only then.. I heard nothing. Saw nothing, but pure white light all around me. No borders, no circle. nothing.
And i felt at peace. More then i ever felt. It was quiet and i had no desire, no thought, no wish. I just was there inside the light.

Suddenly i was back in me. Consious of me sitting in the circle in Henk's backyard.
I opened my eyes and saw the world.
But the world was different.
Colours where brighter, light was brighter, the flowers i could smell 3 meters away.
Then i heard a bumble bee, flying, and as i turned my head i saw the bumble bee coming from about 5 meters away. But still i heard him as if he was next to me. He flew right past me and i senced him and felt like he greated me.

Then Henk said, i must give you some information, and i closed my eyes.
With my eyes closed, i saw Henk, and i saw how his head turned into the head of a wolf.
I saw that a beam of light, came down from the sun, into the back of Henks head.
Then i saw all kinds of 3-dimensional figures emerge from the forehead of the wolf-head. I saw these figures coming over to me and they entered my forehead and i felt all kinds of knowledge just enter me.
No words, i just knew and felt it.
This lasted a while and suddenly it stopped. It was done.

I opened my eyes and thanked Henk.

Okay. This was my Shamanic journey.
I hope you have enjoyed it as much as i did at the time.
Just writing it down again, makes me experience it all over again :)

Thank you..

I love you all....
