Epilepsy and Soul

Wed, 06/25/2014 - 13:11

Hello everyone, I'm posting here my experience and I hope you can take a lot from it. I had epilepsy 13 years ago and took drugs for 8 years since. During that time I didn't have hard seizures thanks to the medication but I had some minor states when I had to be silent for a while and I salivated a lot.Then, in my 16, I started with reiki and meditation and I stopped taking the medication. Since I started living without drugs I had those states with the salivation but not as frequently as when I was taking the medication (funny). Within the last 2 years (I'm 21), as I deepened the connection with my soul, the seizures grew bigger from time to time (1-2 a month, sometimes I was ok for 2 months) because I did wrong, I ignored my inner voice and thus EVERYTIME I HAD THE SEIZURE MY SOUL WAS TEACHING ME. I tell you why. When I have problems that I don't solve, I hear a voice in my head telling me what to do (I developed this connection after meditations and initiations. If my consciousness doesn't listen to that voice (which means that ego is trying to be superior to your soul) then I have a seizure. UNTIL I DO WHAT THE VOICE TELLS ME TO DO I HAVE SEIZURES. Then when I do what I hear in my head, during the seizure the voice is stronger, the seizures stop immediately and don't occur until I do wrong again (may be a month or even 3) or until there is a problem in front of me and I neglect it. I understand that if a doctor reads a message like that then they would say what a nonsense but until you experience it by yourself don't tell anything. As I'm going through all the websites about epilepsy I can see that many people experience the same with the exception that their seizures don't stop for eg 3 months, because they're told that the voice is a defect in their brain, so they continue taking pills and don't solve anything. I'm telling the truth EVERYTIME (not just once or twice in my life, it has been at least 10× in 2 years)my wiser subconscious spoke to me and I ignored it I had a seizure. How would you explain that voice (ok defect in the part of the brain responsible for sound processing) but how come that when I for example took the phone, called that person and apologized I had had seizures for 2 weeks with "Call him and apologize" during the seizure and after that call it stopped for another months. Don't also forget that we have different lessons so your lessons may be different from mine, which means that you should be taught to realize something different. I also encountered a case in a book when a man, after a car accident, had serious seizures and then he was advised by Maria Treben to drink nettle tea 3× a day and make a compress from swedish bitters on the back of the head and he cured completely, even without using artificial medication. I use the bitters after I have the seizure and it helps me to relieve and recover. But as I already said it depends on your lessons, if you're supposed to learn eg to live without medication than you can be completely cured after you stop taking it and start living differently and if you should developed into certain state of mind you may suffer from epilepsy for the whole life for there will always be some advice from your soul (unless you reach nirvana), but don't worry and take it as wonderful lessons that help you understand yourself and move forwards. There is also a web with a list of famous people who suffered from epilepsy. Many said that there is no connection between their inteligence and epilepsy but I would say that once you REACH epilepsy, you're bound to be at a pretty high level of soul maturity, not necessarily inteligence, but by this I don't devalue other ilnessses as our lessons. I wish you all wisdom enough to listen to your soul. Good luck on your way.

Thank you for your post. I do

Thank you for your post. I do believe that many people can find ways to help them control things that happen to them. I have been able to block out pain because I used my mind rather then pills II didn't want the pain pills blocking the medications I was taking for my epilepsy. I can raise or lower my blood pressure. Yes the mind can do wonders if people woud use it. I also know that there are lessons to be learned by everybody. Now I also know that many people have epilepsy and it was not because of the way they thought. Some had a high fevor when they were young and growing. Becasue of that fevor their brain had a gortwtrh defect. Others have scared brain tissue which causes epilepsy. That scar tissue was from a hemmorage to the brain which came from a blow to the head. Was the  persons thinking the reason for their epilepsy I do know that there are many things in this world which have been used to deal with epilepsy. I also know that those people that you spoke of still had seizures during their lives. Just like I have been having. Now I also know that medications today are better then they were in the 60's. They not only control the seizures but they also have fewer side effects and they deffinately do not drag you down like they did back then. I hope you continue to stay controlled like you want. I also know that after periods of time a person with epilepsy can be seizure free and taken off mediactions Please come back and let us know  how things are going.

You're right that many people

You're right that many people may have suffered some physical damage to their brain but I had a brain injury as well I had a brain tumor as a child and since then I had the seizures..That means that if I had suffered a physical damage to my brain, I couldn't be cured, is that what you mean? According to doctors I've met so far it is a simple fact; they say that epilepsy can't be cured unless you take pills, but I don't take pills and I'm perfectly healthy. I think that our body is a reflection of our inner self and every illness is an advice showing us what to improve in our life but we must want to understand it, we must be willing to face it. If we rely only on medical treatment then there is not much probability that we will be cured because the problem will definitely arise again until we solve it but that is a well known fact.
