Angel on the Highway
Charlotte
Rhodes, Michigan
I once heard about a woman in a nursing home who had a car for sale when my
husband was gone fishing. It had very low mileage and looked good at an
affordable price. My husband would usually have made the decision about the
car's dependability, but he was gone and I was concerned that someone else
might snatch it up before me if I didn't buy it right then. The woman's
daughter was storing it at her house and needed it out of the way. I am a
very trusting (gullible?) person. I found out later that between the time I
looked at the car and went to the credit union to get
the money, the woman removed the almost new tires and replaced them with
older tires.
Two days after getting the car, a friend and I drove 350 miles in it to
attend a church retreat. On the way back home, we were talking about how
unpopulated the stretch of highway was, with only a couple of small towns
spaced many miles apart. I was driving 70 miles an hour when the right
front tire blew. I managed to get the car over to the shoulder without
incident, and we sat there shaking and crying and thanking God that we had
not been hurt. But there we were in the middle of nowhere, and this was
before cell phones. I didn't know how to change a tire, or even if I had a
spare tire, or where it might be. Our first thought was to pray that God
would send a solution. After we prayed, I looked at my friend and said, "I
guess I'm going to have to try to change that tire." I reluctantly got out
and amidst my actions of opening up the trunk and not knowing what to do
next, I heard the sound of a vehicle barreling down the dirt shoulder
behind me. I turned around and beheld with amazement a truck being driven
by a young man, who came to a stop 20 feet behind my car. I ran up to my
angel and threw my arms around him, exclaiming, "Oh thank you, thank you
for stopping!" He looked at me with an expression of bewilderment and said,
"Lady, my truck ran out of gas." He changed my tire, we drove him to his
house 15 miles away, called AAA and they directed us to the only garage
that was open (it was Sunday) 30 miles further. We still had a long way to
go and our spare was only a little donut tire. I intended to get a new tire
and drive home. When we got to the garage, the man looked at the rest of my
tires,whistled and said he would not have let his wife drive out of his
driveway with those tires. He showed us where the threads were worn away
down to the core and said we must have had angels watching over us. So,
yes, I do know that... and I also know how to change a tire now. I took one
of the old tires back with me to show my husband after that experience, and
he said they were just as bad as the garage man said they were.
Note from Cynthia: What a fabulous story, indeed! I just love
this
one, and the way it turned out that both you and the man who stopped to
help you needed each other's help. What a marvelous parable describing the
ways we are all here to help one another.
I Became A Pillar of Light
Kristina
California
I'd like to share a story that happened to me last year after the Harmony
Festival in Northern California. The festival was great... the REALLY
amazing thing happened on the way back as I was driving back south toward
the peninsula. Right when I passed Mount Tamalpais (in Marin) I turned into
light! For a brief moment my entire body, the car, everyone around me
disappeared and where the center of my body would normally be... there was
a pillar of light. I was more happy than I had ever been in my life. It was
like this beam of light was me.. and was pure happiness and contentment.. I
couldn't believe it.. it was a vertical beam.. and at my heart it was more
like a sun.. beaming in all directions
When I came back to this physical realm I started yelling to my friend..
"Oh my God, I just turned into light! I just turned into light!" He was
carsick so he wasn't that expressive, and he said, "It sounds like you just
communicated with aliens."
Just before this happened, I remember feeling like my usual start of
discontent... I've battled depression for a long time. When I was the
light, I was just pure joy. I've never felt so perfect and content in my
life. It was everything good without any knowledge of pain or misery. I
wasn't even thinking of anything negative when I had that moment.. it was
phenomenal.. and then when I snapped back I was really eager to share it
with my friend. I was also wondering if any of the drivers around us saw
that happen to me or if anyone else had ever had this experience and how to
make it happen again. Immediately afterward, I was just amazed that I could
feel something so perfect and happy.. and I felt like I must have done
something right in my life to get to that point..
On the way up to the Harmony Festival my friend had mentioned to me at that
same spot, "Hey, we're passing Mount Tamalpais.. this is an ancient native
american sacred site" I read up more on Mount Tamalpais since then and I'm
aware it's supposed to have something to do with a serpent; a lot of
artists depict it as a mountain with a serpent coiled around it.
I'm wondering if that serpent is supposed to represent something about
kundalini energy or enlightenment.. either way.. I think that's definitely
what I experienced..
Ever since that time, I have wanted to have the experience back.. A few
times it seemed like the world around me was turning into a hologram... or
that everything is light... but I haven't had the same experience since. It
was amazing!
After reading
The Holographic Universe by Michael Talbot I
remember thinking, "Life would be a lot better if we were all just a
hologram, because there's so much pain in the physical world. If we were
all holograms we wouldn't have things like physical pain... we'd only have
to work on emotional pain" and now I sort of think physical pain is just
emotional pain in a different form... maybe just the universe expressing
hopelessness or a feeling of being trapped. Those were major things I had
been meditating on for a while before
the experience happened. At the Harmony Festival itself I
was meditating on those things. I was also having fun trying to
visualize every animal (human's included) in light form -- not their auras
but their chakras -- and just thinking how intricate that rainbow would
be...
it would be like one of those psychedellic posters. My favorite book right
now is The
Self-Aware Universe: How
Consciousness Creates the Material World by Amit and Maggie Goswami,
and they talk about consciousness being the subtance of reality.
I also think that the reason we have this illusion of multiples is
because one infinite consciouness gets lonely and it needs to divide into
multiples to give itself companionship. The irony is that if two things or
beings were made up of something truly different, they could never fully
empathize with or comprehend each other. But if they are made up of the
same thing, then they can never fully be more than one, and one is the
loneliest number. BUT when i was this light, none of that mattered. I
was just soooo happy... I couldn't believe it... and I don't know what it
had to do with the mountain!
Sorry I can't give you a shorter answer as to what i was thinking
immediately before, and after. All I really know for sure is that during
that moment... everything was perfect and harmonious.
Thanks for one of the coolest websites in the universe! :)
Note from Cynthia: Wow... I love the way you've described your
state of mind leading up to such a beautiful epiphany.
