Hello amazing people 🙏 If you’d like more help & guidance with meditation & your spiritual path, my online school might be just what you need: www.skool.com/inner-journey-school/about
In my experience the strongest answers come in nature, outside. With the wind, the birds, the shooting stars, little animals crossing your path. It‘s sometimes mighty and sometimes funny or just full of love, but it‘s always with you and knows your name. It‘s like gods orchestra only build to answer your questions with your own melody. It‘s full of love out there, you just need eyes to see and ears to hear.
I was just a little upset with spirit the other day and just before dusk I looked out and saw a beautiful, bright red cardinal. A sign that said, "I love you".
One intense and sad lonely day I decided it was time to test this thing called spirit and god. To learn how to communicate. And so I told the higher powers this was my plan and from that very moment I began to receive help. at first just inner guidance about what steps to take… it’s been 5 years And now the communication is wild, as I’ve learned the language of the universe through patterns and synchronicities and my intuition has increased exponentially. I began by practicing the path of least resistance and following what my heart wanted , both moment to moment. I was astounded by the results and I was sold. I do not hear voices, and the communication is always the same, at least for now…I am shown that I am not alone, they let me know that they know exactly what I am feeling and thinking and going through, sending my way information via patterns of images, words in videos, book titles, thru people, and synchronicities galore, all in mind blowing ways. I finally have some folks in my life to witness this stuff and now they are mind-blown too. 🎉❤😊
Thank you so much for your work,Ben. I first will say there are NO consequences. My mom passed a couple months ago, my dad in 2021 and my grandparents before them. I know grief, isolation and depression. Yesterday while driving my eyes were moved to numbers i saw on a mailbox which were, out of 4 digits, only two away from my grandparents home address. That is a hello from my geandmother, who is always close to me. I will just add that i am not the type of driver who typically looks at house numbers. In all honesty, I couldnt even tell you where to look at most locations where you could typically even find those numbers, so we all know ourselves well enough to recognize an acknowledgement or Hello when we are given them. Love N Light to all 🙏💜🙏
Since my awakening. I know I’m being messaged through music. Music lyrics have always been a communication channel and as I often have Serius radio on the divine is putting on certain tracks on that tell me I’m on the right track. I know this! Every time I ask, question or declare this happens. It just happened this morning. It’s super cool!
Same happens to me I'll even wake up in the morning and have a song in my head that perfectly tells me an answer to a question or gives me advice on something. And wow my autocorrect just changed "happens" to "heavens". That's a sign for me right there!!
As a small kid I was taught by mom to silence my mind and listen to God when I prayed. I agree with this video. God has His own way of answering. Sometimes it will be silence or a feeling of deep peace, other times “coincidences” suddenly will happen and you will notice that is the your answer, and if you are persistent you may also learn to listen the silent voice deep inside that may surprise you. Love to all.
This is so true. I know I'm tuned in and on the right track when I see repeating numbers, experience synchronicities, have the book or video I need at that exact moment popping into my feed or song lyrics coming in to provide guidance or answer questions I'm ruminating on. They can bring me to tears sometimes because you can literally feel the truth in them. I'm not a Beatles fan but when I was struggling and had all the questions, the simple line, "All you need is love" popped into my head and I broke down because it really is that simple. Great video Ben. 🙏
I just got into this 'Awakening' process in November and it's been very interesting. I had a glow feeling around Dec 1 for a few days then back to bleh and the 'Dark Night of the Soul' feeling so weird and like a sack of $hit on many levels but it will pass. I can say I've never received anything during meditation. If anything pops into my mind it's usually when I'm doing something like listening to podcasts and someone says something then it pops in my head and I question it. As far as my Spirit Guides goes, they haven't been over the top, more like just barely enough but it's enough somehow. What I get almost every time is when I ask it questions at night before bed (I hope to wake up with the answer in my mind but that never happens) and the next day on RUclips it's usually in the first 1-2 videos I watch. The other day I had a few questions then watched Christina Lopes video on the Stages of the DNOTS and it answered perfectly my 3 questions from the night before. So I do believe. I talk to my spirit guides like I would talk during a business meeting but with a ton of gratitude sprinkled. The other day while watching 'The Leftovers' I had a question I had asked them then BOOM, I had this feeling through my body for about 15 seconds. Afterwards I asked my spirit guides 'that was you right?' and then I swear to god it said back 'what do you think?' I laughed out loud 30 seconds hard. So for me they will subtly communicate with me. Keep going, it gets better.
2:07 What an amazing coincidence. This morning I watched a video and read a eulogy posted on Hollow Bone Ranch by the channel owner Jennifer about her dog Bailey passing on. In short Bailey was her guiding guru to all the pain and suffering she had. But with that she was the unconditional acceptance of God in form. Very beautiful, she has the written and video up on the Hollow Bone Ranch channel.
First time connecting with your content. Thank you for giving me a ton of reminders and for being the Embodiment of Love that I needed to slow down and listen. Wonderful work. Thank you. ❤️🔥
I laughed at the comparison with a dog. Totally relate and excellent example 😊 That’s how I have always received answers to prayers. You are right they are subtle. At least for me. I would love to have the answers in cinematic form 😂 But hey, I am simply grateful for waking up every morning, and when I won’t, I’ll be grateful also 😊
Your loving encouragement is inspiring Ben, we all go thru moments of doubt, until our spiritual nature becomes such a strong vibrational energy that like you, we all start inspiring each other ❤
Coincidences aren't rare, they are actually the norm. Pay attention to that and you will start to notice that it is true; everything is extremely connected. Once you start asking through the connections, it will respond to you. As humans we automatically act like the top creation but we are actually a small part of all creation. You have to have gratitude and be open, and be humble. Be willing to admit that you are good but flawed, important but also miniscule. The God of everything is a consciousness connected to all consciousnesses, and God responds strongly to the positive and truthful consciousness that you put out. You must be open to receive, and you must believe.
I have been almost sitting on edge of being an atheist in younger ages. Although I was raised by kind hearted believer parents. But my struggle as an independent person in this world experienced differently. I would like to share a day when my patience ran out of job and relations. I was in my furious mind going to workplace to resign and end all mood. I was screaming in my mind, if you exist you will make me feel water on my head in the middle of the road on a bright sunny summer day. 😅. It was an ultimatum, appear now or you will disappear forever. Immediately I felt droplets of water dripping on my head. I looked up, there was clear sky. I realised that there is a plan for me. I calmed down and resigned and made several changes in my life in career and relationship. I had many more answers and experiences there after over the years. These happened as a result of me starting to loving myself. Answer to those seeking God outside is to seek inside, start meditating.
I have had a similar experience, learning that the journey is all about love!! My journey began with learning to open my heart to love after growing up in an abusive and very dysfunctional home. Once I opened to love, love came to me in the most unthreatening form I could imagine, so that I could feel safe, and so that I would be able to open my heart to love. Once I experienced that love from another, and re-connected with the love at the core of my being, I have never looked back, and I know without a doubt that the most important thing in life is love. The more we come into alignment with love, the greater our life will be, and the more we will live in our highest potential. Once I re-connected with the love at the core of myself, and opened my heart to love from others, my life was transformed. The next step for me was the grand and life changing realization that we all are parts of God, and so in the deepest core of who we are, we are pure unconditional love! There is no reason for shame or regrets about ourselves or our past, or for resentment against those who hurt us, because every part of our life, every encounter, and every personal struggle is here to help us to be who we most want to be, and to experience the life experience we most want to experience, and so from the highest perspective all is an expression of unconditional divine love.
This morning, when meditating, I reached something, afterwards I had that feeling in my heart to go forth with love. I've been trying to get closer to god through meditation and prayer. I started meditating twice a day and now. Thank you Ben!.
So this is my experience, and it’s just my opinion but it may help someone else. I think as humans, we often want to be spoon fed when it comes to receiving guidance and I think sometimes we’re so busy looking for that ‘in your face’ sign of an answer to our question that we miss the subtle signs that God is giving us. I very often get my guidance from movies or during a conversation. I remember a couple of years ago, I went through a very bad time, and to escape my anxiety, I watched the friends series every single night, one after the other. I kept hearing words spoken by the characters that related to my exact issue I was having. To me that was a sign that God had heard my cries for help. I have also experienced hearing people in conversation say words that relate to the issue I’m having and it’s just a comfort to know that God has heard me. Songs are another way that I get guidance. When my grandmother was dying, I asked God to let me know when she had reached him safely, and this song started playing and the lyrics just completely related to someone dying and becoming a light in the sky.
Thankyou for this video! This all makes sense to me. There are a couple of things I've been praying and praying to God for, for the last couple of years but I haven't received his help/answers. But on a separate note, I was at work one day and i went into the break room, where we get a lot of second hand books come in. All the books had been sorted and moved except one that was sat on the table with nothing else there. It was called Embracing Eternity. I felt it had been left there as a sign for me to find. It was a fascinating book about a spiritualist with incredible stories. God works in mysterious ways 🙏
Eckhardt Tolle ... might help one understand the deep communication. Heather she is on youtube also has some insight. having come to a place of being , these "beings" hav been a gift. Thanks for posting
I'm chuckling as I start this because I'm watching this on the TV and I pick up my phone to mention about the crazy amount of 23s I've had over the last 4 years. I pick my phone up and as usual it's 23 minutes past. It all started around 2020/21 for my number synchronicity. It even started with my Dad. We both get 23s in amounts that can actually become freaky at times. I'm talking every turn some days and it's 23. I personally get 444 a lot and a lot of that is waking up at 4.44. You'll understand this but I don't really talk about it much as I know so many will have the audacity to claim they know my experience more than me and it's all just a coincidence. Lol well as anyone who experiences it, it's far from that. Some days like yesterday I can be overwhelmed by number synchronicity (not always numbers but mostly.) To the point I just sit down and chuckle as it's crazy how many synchronicities can happen some days. Sometimes literally like dominoes one after another. I can be cooking, look at the time, look at the timer on the Google display, look at the time on air fryer set to a different timescale and 4.44 turn, 4.44, turn, 4.44 and just go wow and chuckle. Tbh this is just scratching the surface on experiences I've had this last 4 years but I just wanted to share that ❤
Thank you Ben. I have just come across your channel from a recommendation by Megan of the Room Requirement. I’m so happy to have discovered you. I have just also ordered the book you recommended. Your teachings are most refreshing and uplifting for myself who have been in the work for several decades and I’m in my seventies, but still open to new knowledge especially from a young person such as yourself. 🙏😇🕉️
"Replace that word with love"...that is a great teaching. Logic itself, is a system of information extraction. What premises you choose is up to you. People misunderstand logic. You hear "this is logical, and " that is logical." It works just like mathematics. It is an input/output function. Like an algorithm. What conclusion you conclude depends on which premises you input. Understanding the arbitrariness of logic, helped lead me to my kundalini awakening. All that we experience passes through our awareness. Who is to say anything objectively. Love is what I experienced. So I claim it as the truth, subjectively. I know that I know nothing. I have no desire to be right. Total surrender.
@@scottchristopherwilkie1664 My dude! I have found that it is easier said than done lol. I find myself clinging to things like no other. But at least I'm somewhat aware at this point. I keep on keeping on.
I hear my higher self, guides, angles and NonHuman Beings in my head. I see the words and I don't doubt it because a drink healed picked up on it and told me not to doubt it. Will have to check your group out. He good to work with you brother.
Consider. In that physically limited space between your ears, you exist. And from that perspective if you look around you come to realize that it is infinite in size and scale. Everything you think, all that you can conceive, it comes out of that space. Honestly, if you think about it, isn't that a giggle? It is to me. Your head, a physical container of limited size, it harbors Infinity. If you but turn within that space and look, you may just discover that it IS the divine. It is that close to you. It enfolds and enwraps. It is there, all around you, waiting on your awareness of it, on you recognizing the obvious. All you need to do, all that is necessary, is opening your mind and listening to the voice that comes out of that stillness. John~
Lately I've been merely thinking of questions that I'm hoping for answers to in my life and the algorithm on Facebook or RUclips will show the perfect video
Poignant Ben thank you❤. I know I connect this way with the divine daily. The YT videos that come up with the perfect message happens so often and I recognize the phenomenon for what it is - Divine guidance. 🙏🏻✨ Been SUPER emotional lately I wonder if that is part of the process on the journey for truth?
Ben, what is your father's view on the role of animals, in particular cats and dogs, in our lives? Do they have karma as well? For eg. some pets live really nice lives, some are abused,etc. Especially when a pet dies, a huge loss is experienced. Do we have a karmic bond with our pets? Is there some relation from previous lives? I apologize for the loaded question, but I have been hugely impacted by cats in my life and I always wonder about their relation with me.
Ben, you would not believe this but just when you were saying about 11:11 in the beginning of the video, i looked at my phone clock and it said 11:11 , if that is not synchronicity i do not know what it is. What is the chance that i look at your video , what are the chances that i start looking at it exactly at 11:08 so that at the 3 minute mark where you say 11:11 it is exactly 11:11 my local time, and what is the chance that i keep watching your video for the first 3 minutes and do not just close it. I think mathematically is 0.000000001% or less :)
The divine will not force direct communication on us in a way we're not ready for, because that would violate our free will. But maybe we're ready to be "gently nudged" towards a particular book or video which can give us the answers we need at a given time, which were brought into the physical realm by someone more open to direct communication, at this time (an insight which, incidentally, motivates me to write again, because I might be helping in bringing in a message meant for somebody else).
Ben I am awake now and you have really helped. I have a question about 11’s coming up. They have come up as numbers in a plentiful way but my question is, when I look out my window, I see multiple fence posts etc that now look like 11s. Am I over-interpreting? Do they need to be numeric digits or can the number appear as environmental “signposts “ as well? Please answer if you have time and thank you so much. I am ecstatic to have found your channel…meaning you. I have had all of this swirling around for the last decade and it seems to be wanting to take some sort of form in my life and my mind. Again, thanks.
I’ve been working hard at it for 50 years now. No numbers. Nothing. I know God is real but there’s a lot of loneliness and depression. No real friends. God is my only friend but God seems distant too.
Have you tried going to a good church? There are often good people there. If there are personal issues that you don’t trust others with it then might stop you from connecting with others. Pray and self reflect on what the issue might be, I’ll do the same for you.
thank you brother. I started going to church again recently. I was a Benedictine monk for 13 years but left. I always wanted God but looking back I often think how I squandered my time. Even in the monastery I had a chance to go deep into biblical studies but I also had some artistic talent so they gave me the option to study art. I chose the art path. The monastery even sent me to art school. I never finished that either. I will continue to go to church but am realizing I have become what I didn’t want to become. I always thought I would have a lot of friends and would be successful and would be close to God but I look at my life and am afraid. Afraid to get hurt. My body is getting weaker. And my loved ones all dying. Please Lord help me. I am sorry. Please pray for me brother. I will pray for you too. May God and Christ and the Holy Spirit have mercy on us all. May we learn to love as they love. May we see with their eyes. And love each other the way God loves. I also have terrible anger and rage. I feel everyone in my life has betrayed me. It comes from a place of hurt but I feel it is a demon on my back. Please pray for me brother. Thank you. Love you brother. Peace.
@ yes I definitely do not trust anyone because I feel betrayed by everyone in my past. But at the same time I know I am no better. I don’t know how to get past this hurdle. I have even gone to therapy and during therapy feel the therapist is judgmental towards me, then I stop going. Anyway, sorry for taking up your time. My apologies brother. Please pray for me. That’s all. I just want God brother but I am wounded and sinful. Peace brother.
@@AccessPassJoe Good luck on the journey. In the past i've falsely believed others think like me and make the same judgements, this is often not true though. Hope things improve soon and you can rework your value system to be more aligned with Gods, this will help you heal.
learn to give over and release what you think you want! The universe knows better than us! You are being directed! But you are not listening because you so busy talking! Shut out the noise! Trying talking while someone is talking to you! You can’t hear them 🤷♂️🤷♂️! This is the same. Listen, the whispers from the universe comes in your moments of silence.
There may come a time when we even start asking ourself from which source does this message come... Just because there is a bit of truth this doesn't mean that this bit comes from the "whole absolute and complete truth of our being and existence"...it may be - a bit surounded by lies- and we may, in our endeavour to be guided and to trust, mistaken the source who nudges us in that point of being in time and space. Question it, does it go along with your core values..and don't trust every hint..sometimes trigger are there to show you that something isn't allright. The point here is that otherwise..you may end up being used and this for malefic reasons - even though your intentions are pure- and stuff being done by you and through you ..even without wether knowing it nor being aware of it either.😔
The level of certainty so many of this spiritual people talk about these topics is astounding. I can't say I expected this in 2024 when I started venturing into spirituality like 15 years ago. Everyone talks with so much atuhroity over things they don't know or can't prove...or that don't translate to everyone's context. Yet, it is seens as normal or desierable. I mean, really?? And then there's this kumbaya phenomenon. Based on whether the speaker is popular enough, people will just nod their heads in agreement (because they've heard something similar elsewhere) and call it a day. ZERO discernment or questioning in all of this processs. And this is how we are "educating" each other on these topics - a handful of recycled narratives around higher self, "God" (do people really KNOW it's "God" communicating with them??) etc.....and everyone is fine and dandy with this. Incredible. Zero earnestness for truth. It's all second hand narratives and concepts ("ego) etc......and everyone thinks they are doing ther ight thing, because they managed to create some peace/bliss in their life. Where are the real lovers of truth I wonder? I can't be the only one fed up with this state of affairs.
Because you don't know or can't prove it , it doesn't mean it's not possible for someone else to. Some have other ways of knowing things. I'm not saying I know it all, but I'm certain enough to share with confidence.
After having been in the church for many years and finding the divine more in other spiritual traditions, I find using the word 'God' still off putting, while when you use the word 'the devine' as in your video I feel more connected. I feel that for example people like His Holiness the Dalai Lama really are living buddhas. I also met some other Tibetan masters/ rinpoches who can bring up this potential alive in you. I wish everyone who reads this happiness, wisdom and bliss.
Ben can you tell me why the messaging is coming to me in repeating numerical patterns of 6..66 and 666 which I have been seeing repeatedly for almost a year now. Not the type of number sequences one wants to see especially coming from a Christian perspective. Would love to hear your view?
I'll never understand why the Power that animates the universe does not simply announce itself clearly if a person asks. Even one such experience would be enough. Everyone would become a better person. Why obscure hints that could be interpreted in any number of ways ? Seems unfair -- borderline cruel, in fact.
I used to be an atheist and this was a huge sticking point I had as well. I started listening to a lot of near-death experiences and from what I gather the main point of being here is to experience human feelings and connections. We still need some mystery to motivate us and keep things flowing as needed for the human experience. However those of us that pay attention and read between the lines.. we get a little extra magic to brighten our day and give us some pep. Otherwise life can be pretty harsh and a sense of optimism keeps us going
@@NadjaTeege fair point, in technical terms. but relating to this world and relating to the spirit are not the same thing and are typically diametrically opposed. once you connect to god, then you can find his fingerprint in every place and thing in the world and appreciate it - but you will not find the spiritual by relating to the physical world first. if you think you do, you have already connected in the spirit first and are taking that step for granted
@@360.Tapestry Absolutely agree. Well, there is no relationship outside of you. It beginns and ends within us and one can ask who is relating to what. In the end God is relating to himself through the physical vessel of our body. We can talk hours about it, but digging into my relationship with everything really helped me a lot to find God in everything. Just my experience. No life rule for everyone 😁
I agree with both of you 😊 God is all there is - everything else is an illusion. But equally, the illusion is God. The former must be known and understood first, in order to embrace the latter 💙
If I want to communicate with you, I make sure A) I'm getting your attention, and B) I'm using a form of communication readily available to you. God fails on both counts.
True indeed. This can be a super long journey. Gossamer layers of increasing faith forming over the years. A steadiness that it will all be ok. Regardless. You begin to appreciate the faith itself. It's an inner strengthening. Doomsaying, cynical disbelief and distrust have to be released to the ether, as they hold you back. You can still stay objective and wise without those things. You know that the faith is bouying you up even if it all turns out to be an illusion. It's the most understated power ever. And that is why it is strong. Experiencing the all bells and whistles miracles and direct access to the divine, may be the path of some and it certainly sounds amazing, for how could they ever feel alone or in doubt, but that steady faith can build without those experiences. Trust the process. If we chose to come here and go hard core, to learn without the amazing gifts that others seem to receive, then we are gaining a different experience but one that helps us. Slow but sure. For those who have regular divine contact, it can suddenly stop and it is then very hard for them but if your faith has grown crumb by crumb, predominately in the mundane, your faith can sustain you. It is a journey. Don't sweat it. It can take decades. You can be quite old when it is fully in place. If this sounds utterly dull and unsatisfactory believe you me, my younger self would have also screamed at the outrageous disappointment and utter dullness of this message. It sounds sooo underwhelming. But the gift of faith is a steadying device and when you have it, you know you are so lucky. If you have wild emotions and a questioning mind, like myself, it can take a lifetime to learn any peace. But the good thing can be that unlike some, you are not quick baked and rigid, unable to take in anything new. Instead we stay in semi fluid form and bake slowly so we can take in more of life and build into our own being. ❤
I would like to believe that there is love at the heart of all things, but if so there is this great conundrum of excessive suffering in the world, especially of the innocent, even, or especially, in the natural animal world where it is the exception to die of old age and it is more normal to die of hunger, cold, injury or being eaten by a predator.. :-/

Agree. And the bits of magic out on a hike - a bird, a snake, a kangaroo etc, I like to think is Source saying hi.
On my walk today I saw a boat named Lordy, it made me smile
My name for Source 😇

Since my awakening. I know I’m being messaged through music. Music lyrics have always been a communication channel and as I often have Serius radio on the divine is putting on certain tracks on that tell me I’m on the right track. I know this! Every time I ask, question or declare this happens. It just happened this morning. It’s super cool!
Same happens to me I'll even wake up in the morning and have a song in my head that perfectly tells me an answer to a question or gives me advice on something. And wow my autocorrect just changed "happens" to "heavens". That's a sign for me right there!!
So true ❤
The voice of god is often a quiet whisper
True but he’s selling God which is Blasphemy and a unforgivable sin
So true. This is what I have personally discovered.
@@Chachi21 Of course it is. Because spirituality can only ever be corporate and organised, cant it?
@@paulduffy6259 Just a RUclips grifter man.
I like a lot of the comments made, and it's nice to see the people sharing their thoughts..
As a small kid I was taught by mom to silence my mind and listen to God when I prayed. I agree with this video. God has His own way of answering. Sometimes it will be silence or a feeling of deep peace, other times “coincidences” suddenly will happen and you will notice that is the your answer, and if you are persistent you may also learn to listen the silent voice deep inside that may surprise you. Love to all.
Thank you for this explanation
Last night I was asking for a sign that I was on the right path and this shows up on my feed . . . Thanks brother 🙏
This is so true. I know I'm tuned in and on the right track when I see repeating numbers, experience synchronicities, have the book or video I need at that exact moment popping into my feed or song lyrics coming in to provide guidance or answer questions I'm ruminating on. They can bring me to tears sometimes because you can literally feel the truth in them. I'm not a Beatles fan but when I was struggling and had all the questions, the simple line, "All you need is love" popped into my head and I broke down because it really is that simple. Great video Ben. 🙏
Great advice and analogy. I am one who does not "hear" a response but feels and observes things, reassuring me I'm headed in the right direction.
I just got into this 'Awakening' process in November and it's been very interesting. I had a glow feeling around Dec 1 for a few days then back to bleh and the 'Dark Night of the Soul' feeling so weird and like a sack of $hit on many levels but it will pass.
I can say I've never received anything during meditation. If anything pops into my mind it's usually when I'm doing something like listening to podcasts and someone says something then it pops in my head and I question it.
As far as my Spirit Guides goes, they haven't been over the top, more like just barely enough but it's enough somehow. What I get almost every time is when I ask it questions at night before bed (I hope to wake up with the answer in my mind but that never happens) and the next day on RUclips it's usually in the first 1-2 videos I watch. The other day I had a few questions then watched Christina Lopes video on the Stages of the DNOTS and it answered perfectly my 3 questions from the night before. So I do believe.
I talk to my spirit guides like I would talk during a business meeting but with a ton of gratitude sprinkled. The other day while watching 'The Leftovers' I had a question I had asked them then BOOM, I had this feeling through my body for about 15 seconds. Afterwards I asked my spirit guides 'that was you right?' and then I swear to god it said back 'what do you think?' I laughed out loud 30 seconds hard. So for me they will subtly communicate with me.
Keep going, it gets better.
2:07 What an amazing coincidence. This morning I watched a video and read a eulogy posted on Hollow Bone Ranch by the channel owner Jennifer about her dog Bailey passing on.
In short Bailey was her guiding guru to all the pain and suffering she had. But with that she was the unconditional acceptance of God in form.
Very beautiful, she has the written and video up on the Hollow Bone Ranch channel.
First time connecting with your content. Thank you for giving me a ton of reminders and for being the Embodiment of Love that I needed to slow down and listen. Wonderful work. Thank you. ❤️🔥
“Videos like this..” absolutely 💯
I laughed at the comparison with a dog. Totally relate and excellent example 😊 That’s how I have always received answers to prayers. You are right they are subtle. At least for me. I would love to have the answers in cinematic form 😂 But hey, I am simply grateful for waking up every morning, and when I won’t, I’ll be grateful also 😊
Your loving encouragement is inspiring Ben, we all go thru moments of doubt, until our spiritual nature becomes such a strong vibrational energy that like you, we all start inspiring each other ❤
Coincidences aren't rare, they are actually the norm. Pay attention to that and you will start to notice that it is true; everything is extremely connected. Once you start asking through the connections, it will respond to you.
As humans we automatically act like the top creation but we are actually a small part of all creation. You have to have gratitude and be open, and be humble. Be willing to admit that you are good but flawed, important but also miniscule. The God of everything is a consciousness connected to all consciousnesses, and God responds strongly to the positive and truthful consciousness that you put out. You must be open to receive, and you must believe.
The message I get from Spirit is that it’s all about Love, above all else.
I totally agree🙏
Keep the faith and God shows he’s love and timing..
I have been almost sitting on edge of being an atheist in younger ages. Although I was raised by kind hearted believer parents. But my struggle as an independent person in this world experienced differently. I would like to share a day when my patience ran out of job and relations. I was in my furious mind going to workplace to resign and end all mood. I was screaming in my mind, if you exist you will make me feel water on my head in the middle of the road on a bright sunny summer day. 😅. It was an ultimatum, appear now or you will disappear forever. Immediately I felt droplets of water dripping on my head. I looked up, there was clear sky. I realised that there is a plan for me. I calmed down and resigned and made several changes in my life in career and relationship. I had many more answers and experiences there after over the years. These happened as a result of me starting to loving myself. Answer to those seeking God outside is to seek inside, start meditating.
I have had a similar experience, learning that the journey is all about love!! My journey began with learning to open my heart to love after growing up in an abusive and very dysfunctional home. Once I opened to love, love came to me in the most unthreatening form I could imagine, so that I could feel safe, and so that I would be able to open my heart to love. Once I experienced that love from another, and re-connected with the love at the core of my being, I have never looked back, and I know without a doubt that the most important thing in life is love. The more we come into alignment with love, the greater our life will be, and the more we will live in our highest potential. Once I re-connected with the love at the core of myself, and opened my heart to love from others, my life was transformed. The next step for me was the grand and life changing realization that we all are parts of God, and so in the deepest core of who we are, we are pure unconditional love! There is no reason for shame or regrets about ourselves or our past, or for resentment against those who hurt us, because every part of our life, every encounter, and every personal struggle is here to help us to be who we most want to be, and to experience the life experience we most want to experience, and so from the highest perspective all is an expression of unconditional divine love.
The pleasures of this world, will only satisfy your senses.
That is so powerful, thank you
I agree. Powerful! That was a “Wow, I’ve never thought of it that way” moment for me. Very wise Ben. Thank you.
This morning, when meditating, I reached something, afterwards I had that feeling in my heart to go forth with love. I've been trying to get closer to god through meditation and prayer. I started meditating twice a day and now.
Thank you Ben!.
This is a great topic thank you Ben!
Love each other. Stop the endless wars. Wars caused needless suffering, death and destruction to the whole world.
Thank you. I find that there are a lot of answers in the silence. Coincidences and synchronicity too.
I see 11 11 all the time and wondered why....I've also been feeling unconnected...and here you are explaining. Thanks
So this is my experience, and it’s just my opinion but it may help someone else.
I think as humans, we often want to be spoon fed when it comes to receiving guidance and I think sometimes we’re so busy looking for that ‘in your face’ sign of an answer to our question that we miss the subtle signs that God is giving us.
I very often get my guidance from movies or during a conversation.
I remember a couple of years ago, I went through a very bad time, and to escape my anxiety, I watched the friends series every single night, one after the other.
I kept hearing words spoken by the characters that related to my exact issue I was having.
To me that was a sign that God had heard my cries for help.
I have also experienced hearing people in conversation say words that relate to the issue I’m having and it’s just a comfort to know that God has heard me.
Songs are another way that I get guidance. When my grandmother was dying, I asked God to let me know when she had reached him safely, and this song started playing and the lyrics just completely related to someone dying and becoming a light in the sky.
Thank you
Thank you ben ❤ I appreciate your no bull approach.
Thankyou for this video! This all makes sense to me. There are a couple of things I've been praying and praying to God for, for the last couple of years but I haven't received his help/answers. But on a separate note, I was at work one day and i went into the break room, where we get a lot of second hand books come in. All the books had been sorted and moved except one that was sat on the table with nothing else there. It was called Embracing Eternity. I felt it had been left there as a sign for me to find. It was a fascinating book about a spiritualist with incredible stories. God works in mysterious ways 🙏
No joke, I started watching this video and looked down at the clock and it said 11:11.
God is Love
Choose Love
Thankyou Ben, your explanations are so good and I can fully understand and agree with what you expressed.
Had to put my dog down this week. I was thinking the same thing, a dog Carnt really say goodbye , I love you in human lauguage
🙏🏿
@ thank you 🙏
So sorry to hear this. My prayers are with you and your dogs soul 🙏
@ do pets have there own astral plane ? Or are thay mixed in with humans souls? Also animals can evolve to humans im assuming? And thanks 🙏 Ben.
@@Lonewolf__666 I had bizarre dreams with mine. a lot of reports they are in the after life... anything is possible
Eckhardt Tolle ... might help one understand the deep communication. Heather she is on youtube also has some insight. having come to a place of being , these "beings" hav been a gift. Thanks for posting
I'm chuckling as I start this because I'm watching this on the TV and I pick up my phone to mention about the crazy amount of 23s I've had over the last 4 years. I pick my phone up and as usual it's 23 minutes past. It all started around 2020/21 for my number synchronicity. It even started with my Dad. We both get 23s in amounts that can actually become freaky at times. I'm talking every turn some days and it's 23. I personally get 444 a lot and a lot of that is waking up at 4.44. You'll understand this but I don't really talk about it much as I know so many will have the audacity to claim they know my experience more than me and it's all just a coincidence. Lol well as anyone who experiences it, it's far from that. Some days like yesterday I can be overwhelmed by number synchronicity (not always numbers but mostly.) To the point I just sit down and chuckle as it's crazy how many synchronicities can happen some days. Sometimes literally like dominoes one after another. I can be cooking, look at the time, look at the timer on the Google display, look at the time on air fryer set to a different timescale and 4.44 turn, 4.44, turn, 4.44 and just go wow and chuckle. Tbh this is just scratching the surface on experiences I've had this last 4 years but I just wanted to share that ❤
Thanks Ben , good timing x
Thank you🤍 I love this video 🌞🌳🕊
Thank you Ben. I have just come across your channel from a recommendation by Megan of the Room Requirement. I’m so happy to have discovered you. I have just also ordered the book you recommended. Your teachings are most refreshing and uplifting for myself who have been in the work for several decades and I’m in my seventies, but still open to new knowledge especially from a young person such as yourself. 🙏😇🕉️
"Replace that word with love"...that is a great teaching. Logic itself, is a system of information extraction. What premises you choose is up to you. People misunderstand logic. You hear "this is logical, and " that is logical." It works just like mathematics. It is an input/output function. Like an algorithm. What conclusion you conclude depends on which premises you input. Understanding the arbitrariness of logic, helped lead me to my kundalini awakening. All that we experience passes through our awareness. Who is to say anything objectively. Love is what I experienced. So I claim it as the truth, subjectively. I know that I know nothing. I have no desire to be right. Total surrender.
Well said, I used to want to be right above anything, now I don't care to be right or wrong, only peaceful
@@scottchristopherwilkie1664 My dude! I have found that it is easier said than done lol. I find myself clinging to things like no other. But at least I'm somewhat aware at this point. I keep on keeping on.
Thank you Ben ❤❤
Very good Ben! I’m working with my spirit guides and I can feel the love they give to me.
God is All within all, know who you are to know God to have relationship with Him.
I hear my higher self, guides, angles and NonHuman Beings in my head. I see the words and I don't doubt it because a drink healed picked up on it and told me not to doubt it. Will have to check your group out. He good to work with you brother.
Beautiful message Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Thank you Ben❤🙏 greetings from Switzerland 🪄✨♥️
It was 1:11 p.m.when your video ended. Love
This is so awesome ❤ thank you
Once again thanks Ben ❤
this advice is clear as mud
Haha
Through synchronicities personally experienced, I believe that Sai Baba was a manifestation of God on this Earth.
I agree with you. He was a Divine Avatar (incarnation of God), no doubt about it.
God = Love. Nice.
What is Love?
thank you
Seek and you will find. If you listen you will here and it's amazing. Thank you brother ❤ 🙏
Hello, thankyou. I enjoyed it, good listening-i shall try what you said. KB x
NOTHING BUT THE FACTSSSSSSSSSS BRO.
Synchronicity 🔗 subscribed
Right place at thr right time ❤
Consider. In that physically limited space between your ears, you exist. And from that perspective if you look around you come to realize that it is infinite in size and scale. Everything you think, all that you can conceive, it comes out of that space. Honestly, if you think about it, isn't that a giggle? It is to me. Your head, a physical container of limited size, it harbors Infinity.
If you but turn within that space and look, you may just discover that it IS the divine. It is that close to you. It enfolds and enwraps. It is there, all around you, waiting on your awareness of it, on you recognizing the obvious. All you need to do, all that is necessary, is opening your mind and listening to the voice that comes out of that stillness.
John~
Thanks for that Ben ❤
Thanks Ben, great content, as usual.
Many thanks 😊
great post, thank you Ben
11:11 is one way
Lately I've been merely thinking of questions that I'm hoping for answers to in my life and the algorithm on Facebook or RUclips will show the perfect video
❤️🔥
Poignant Ben thank you❤. I know I connect this way with the divine daily. The YT videos that come up with the perfect message happens so often and I recognize the phenomenon for what it is - Divine guidance. 🙏🏻✨ Been SUPER emotional lately I wonder if that is part of the process on the journey for truth?
Ben, what is your father's view on the role of animals, in particular cats and dogs, in our lives? Do they have karma as well?
For eg. some pets live really nice lives, some are abused,etc.
Especially when a pet dies, a huge loss is experienced. Do we have a karmic bond with our pets? Is there some relation from previous lives?
I apologize for the loaded question, but I have been hugely impacted by cats in my life and I always wonder about their relation with me.
❤🙏
❤❤
💫
Ben, you would not believe this but just when you were saying about 11:11 in the beginning of the video, i looked at my phone clock and it said 11:11 , if that is not synchronicity i do not know what it is. What is the chance that i look at your video , what are the chances that i start looking at it exactly at 11:08 so that at the 3 minute mark where you say 11:11 it is exactly 11:11 my local time, and what is the chance that i keep watching your video for the first 3 minutes and do not just close it. I think mathematically is 0.000000001% or less :)

Hi, subbed
The divine will not force direct communication on us in a way we're not ready for, because that would violate our free will. But maybe we're ready to be "gently nudged" towards a particular book or video which can give us the answers we need at a given time, which were brought into the physical realm by someone more open to direct communication, at this time (an insight which, incidentally, motivates me to write again, because I might be helping in bringing in a message meant for somebody else).
Yes, I totally agree with this 🙏
Ben I am awake now and you have really helped. I have a question about 11’s coming up. They have come up as numbers in a plentiful way but my question is, when I look out my window, I see multiple fence posts etc that now look like 11s. Am I over-interpreting? Do they need to be numeric digits or can the number appear as environmental “signposts “ as well? Please answer if you have time and thank you so much. I am ecstatic to have found your channel…meaning you. I have had all of this swirling around for the last decade and it seems to be wanting to take some sort of form in my life and my mind. Again, thanks.
Question for you Ben. What does my higher self do in the astral planes, While this part of my consciousness is fixed on this life?
I’ve been working hard at it for 50 years now. No numbers. Nothing. I know God is real but there’s a lot of loneliness and depression. No real friends. God is my only friend but God seems distant too.
Have you tried going to a good church? There are often good people there. If there are personal issues that you don’t trust others with it then might stop you from connecting with others. Pray and self reflect on what the issue might be, I’ll do the same for you.
thank you brother. I started going to church again recently. I was a Benedictine monk for 13 years but left. I always wanted God but looking back I often think how I squandered my time. Even in the monastery I had a chance to go deep into biblical studies but I also had some artistic talent so they gave me the option to study art. I chose the art path. The monastery even sent me to art school. I never finished that either. I will continue to go to church but am realizing I have become what I didn’t want to become. I always thought I would have a lot of friends and would be successful and would be close to God but I look at my life and am afraid. Afraid to get hurt. My body is getting weaker. And my loved ones all dying. Please Lord help me. I am sorry. Please pray for me brother. I will pray for you too. May God and Christ and the Holy Spirit have mercy on us all. May we learn to love as they love. May we see with their eyes. And love each other the way God loves. I also have terrible anger and rage. I feel everyone in my life has betrayed me. It comes from a place of hurt but I feel it is a demon on my back. Please pray for me brother. Thank you. Love you brother. Peace.
@ yes I definitely do not trust anyone because I feel betrayed by everyone in my past. But at the same time I know I am no better. I don’t know how to get past this hurdle. I have even gone to therapy and during therapy feel the therapist is judgmental towards me, then I stop going. Anyway, sorry for taking up your time. My apologies brother. Please pray for me. That’s all. I just want God brother but I am wounded and sinful. Peace brother.
@@AccessPassJoe Good luck on the journey. In the past i've falsely believed others think like me and make the same judgements, this is often not true though. Hope things improve soon and you can rework your value system to be more aligned with Gods, this will help you heal.
@@gt0703 thank you brother
learn to give over and release what you think you want! The universe knows better than us! You are being directed! But you are not listening because you so busy talking! Shut out the noise! Trying talking while someone is talking to you! You can’t hear them 🤷♂️🤷♂️! This is the same. Listen, the whispers from the universe comes in your moments of silence.
👏👏👏🙏
There may come a time when we even start asking ourself from which source does this message come...
Just because there is a bit of truth this doesn't mean that this bit comes from the "whole absolute and complete truth of our being and existence"...it may be - a bit surounded by lies- and we may, in our endeavour to be guided and to trust, mistaken the source who nudges us in that point of being in time and space.
Question it, does it go along with your core values..and don't trust every hint..sometimes trigger are there to show you that something isn't allright.
The point here is that otherwise..you may end up being used and this for malefic reasons - even though your intentions are pure- and stuff being done by you and through you ..even without wether knowing it nor being aware of it either.😔
When you ask god for help. You do get an answer, but not often in the way you expect or want.

At the end of the day, first things first, one needs to be born again in Jesus Christ to have true communion with God
I opened this video on ‘888 likes’ 😊
The level of certainty so many of this spiritual people talk about these topics is astounding. I can't say I expected this in 2024 when I started venturing into spirituality like 15 years ago. Everyone talks with so much atuhroity over things they don't know or can't prove...or that don't translate to everyone's context. Yet, it is seens as normal or desierable. I mean, really??
And then there's this kumbaya phenomenon. Based on whether the speaker is popular enough, people will just nod their heads in agreement (because they've heard something similar elsewhere) and call it a day. ZERO discernment or questioning in all of this processs. And this is how we are "educating" each other on these topics - a handful of recycled narratives around higher self, "God" (do people really KNOW it's "God" communicating with them??) etc.....and everyone is fine and dandy with this. Incredible. Zero earnestness for truth. It's all second hand narratives and concepts ("ego) etc......and everyone thinks they are doing ther ight thing, because they managed to create some peace/bliss in their life. Where are the real lovers of truth I wonder? I can't be the only one fed up with this state of affairs.
Because you don't know or can't prove it , it doesn't mean it's not possible for someone else to. Some have other ways of knowing things. I'm not saying I know it all, but I'm certain enough to share with confidence.
@@bensmithreal You certain to share with confidence what worked for YOU, not express is as an universal truth with no nuance.
After having been in the church for many years and finding the divine more in other spiritual traditions, I find using the word 'God' still off putting, while when you use the word 'the devine' as in your video I feel more connected. I feel that for example people like His Holiness the Dalai Lama really are living buddhas. I also met some other Tibetan masters/ rinpoches who can bring up this potential alive in you. I wish everyone who reads this happiness, wisdom and bliss.
yeah its sometimes kinda wierd...I feel like he talking to me throught utube at times...and I just tell myself its a coincidence.
I never see any recurring numbers, NEVER 😕
Ben can you tell me why the messaging is coming to me in repeating numerical patterns of 6..66 and 666 which I have been seeing repeatedly for almost a year now. Not the type of number sequences one wants to see especially coming from a Christian perspective. Would love to hear your view?
I'll never understand why the Power that animates the universe does not simply announce itself clearly if a person asks. Even one such experience would be enough. Everyone would become a better person. Why obscure hints that could be interpreted in any number of ways ? Seems unfair -- borderline cruel, in fact.
I used to be an atheist and this was a huge sticking point I had as well. I started listening to a lot of near-death experiences and from what I gather the main point of being here is to experience human feelings and connections. We still need some mystery to motivate us and keep things flowing as needed for the human experience. However those of us that pay attention and read between the lines.. we get a little extra magic to brighten our day and give us some pep. Otherwise life can be pretty harsh and a sense of optimism keeps us going
I couldn't agree more. They always say 'subtle'. I thought the Universal force was so powerful.
God is all that is. If you create a relationship to the world around you, you create a relationship to god.
attachment to this world is a barrier
@ Relating to something and attaching to it is not the same.
@@NadjaTeege fair point, in technical terms. but relating to this world and relating to the spirit are not the same thing and are typically diametrically opposed. once you connect to god, then you can find his fingerprint in every place and thing in the world and appreciate it - but you will not find the spiritual by relating to the physical world first. if you think you do, you have already connected in the spirit first and are taking that step for granted
@@360.Tapestry Absolutely agree. Well, there is no relationship outside of you. It beginns and ends within us and one can ask who is relating to what. In the end God is relating to himself through the physical vessel of our body. We can talk hours about it, but digging into my relationship with everything really helped me a lot to find God in everything. Just my experience. No life rule for everyone 😁
I agree with both of you 😊 God is all there is - everything else is an illusion. But equally, the illusion is God. The former must be known and understood first, in order to embrace the latter 💙
If I want to communicate with you, I make sure A) I'm getting your attention, and B) I'm using a form of communication readily available to you. God fails on both counts.
True indeed.
This can be a super long journey. Gossamer layers of increasing faith forming over the years. A steadiness that it will all be ok. Regardless.
You begin to appreciate the faith itself. It's an inner strengthening. Doomsaying, cynical disbelief and distrust have to be released to the ether, as they hold you back. You can still stay objective and wise without those things.
You know that the faith is bouying you up even if it all turns out to be an illusion.
It's the most understated power ever. And that is why it is strong.
Experiencing the all bells and whistles miracles and direct access to the divine, may be the path of some and it certainly sounds amazing, for how could they ever feel alone or in doubt, but that steady faith can build without those experiences.
Trust the process. If we chose to come here and go hard core, to learn without the amazing gifts that others seem to receive, then we are gaining a different experience but one that helps us.
Slow but sure.
For those who have regular divine contact, it can suddenly stop and it is then very hard for them but if your faith has grown crumb by crumb, predominately in the mundane, your faith can sustain you.
It is a journey. Don't sweat it. It can take decades. You can be quite old when it is fully in place.
If this sounds utterly dull and unsatisfactory believe you me, my younger self would have also screamed at the outrageous disappointment and utter dullness of this message. It sounds sooo underwhelming.
But the gift of faith is a steadying device and when you have it, you know you are so lucky.
If you have wild emotions and a questioning mind, like myself, it can take a lifetime to learn any peace. But the good thing can be that unlike some, you are not quick baked and rigid, unable to take in anything new. Instead we stay in semi fluid form and bake slowly so we can take in more of life and build into our own being.
❤
if Christ loves you enough to convince you to pick up a bible, pay attention. It doesn't mean you're saved, but the door is wide open. Many are called
Watching this at 11:11 am lol
I would like to believe that there is love at the heart of all things, but if so there is this great conundrum of excessive suffering in the world, especially of the innocent, even, or especially, in the natural animal world where it is the exception to die of old age and it is more normal to die of hunger, cold, injury or being eaten by a predator.. :-/
I guess mine is feathers. I keep finding them here are there…
