Timeline Healing Story: A Journey Into Wisdom

I simply could not wait. I had the lights beamed me down. In the distance, I could hear The Voice. It said in a commanding voice, “Don’t get down yet!!”

But it was too late! I was in a hurry. I was drawn to travel to this place ever since my spacecraft took flight. The lights beamed me down. I was out in the open. On a hill. My spacecraft hovered above, treacherously low.

An old woman was sitting at a stone table. She was waiting for me. I scanned my surroundings. In the background was a brickhouse. It did not look grand or anything. In fact, it looked rather simple. Other than the house, there was nothing else.

I recognized the old woman instantly. The picture of her face had entered my mind ever since I entered my spacecraft. She had “beckoned” me here.

“Look into her face. Get a sense of how she looks like,” guided The Voice.

I obeyed. I sat down next to her to have a closer look. She was old, wrinkled with folds on her skin. The old woman was wearing some kind of heavy costume, weaved from threads of gold, red and orange. She had a headdress on. Intricate, ornate and regal. Strings of beads draped the curve of her neck.

There was something about her in her steady gaze. The glint in her eyes revealed her wisdom.

“Where are you?” asked The Voice.

“Mongolia,” was my instant reply. I did not have to ask her. The answer just came from within.

“Let her tell you what you need to know,” said The Voice.

So I waited. She was responding to the questions I had been having in my mind. She must be telepathic.

“Joy is simply not about being in a state of bliss. Even if you have started doing deep inner work, it does not mean that you no longer encounter any more conflicts or unhappiness. I know that you have felt frustrated. In your despair, you wondered, ‘what is the point?’ Yes, but this is life. Life will continue to have its ups and downs. There will be old patterns that surface again and again. But each time, you will grow and evolve from your lessons. See the difference between being in a state of joy and real joy? Real joy comes from wisdom. Fully accepting what-is. Not running away but dealing with your issues. Making peace. Awakening into insight.”

“But but…..I don’t feel wise,” was my halting response.

I recalled that I had been harboring some self doubts. Just prior to taking off in my spacecraft, I had complained about feeling inadequate.

“Wisdom is to be shared. It is not be kept. Share what you already know. It may be just right for someone else.” she continued. “Don’t just share knowledge. Wisdom comes from personal experiencing. It is how meaning is created.”

As she babbled on and on about sharing wisdom, she soon became lost in her own thoughts.

The old woman began to look wistful.

And then, I knew.

She had all the wisdom. She had shared them with her family and neighbors. Yet, she knew that she could possibly touch more lives, if her insights were shared further afield.

I realized that she had what I needed. At the same time, I had what she needed: access to the rest of the world. The internet was the answer!

“Have you gotten what you need to know? Is it time to leave?” The Voice said.

“Errr….I don’t wish to. I can sit here all day.” I answered, reluctant to leave.

“You cannot stay. You need to come back.” The Voice warned.

“Ask her if she can put it all down in a book. Whatever she can share. So the next time you come back, she will have it all ready for you.” suggested The Voice helpfully.

So I asked the old woman. She nodded her head.

Satisfied, I went up into my spacecraft through its beaming lights. Once inside, I piloted the spacecraft. It took off. I flew back.

Right back into the current timeline.

The session was finally over.

I opened my eyes.

(Bet you are going to ask, “where are you?” Well, I have traveled through time. Into the past. The scene above was what I tuned into as a result of a Timeline Healing session which I went through some weeks ago. The Voice belonged to Raj, who was facilitating it. The woman I met? Well, what do you think?)

What Is Timeline Healing Intervention?
Timeline Healing Intervention is a technique that is used in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). It is based on the concept that we store our life memories linearly. With timeline, it is possible to float into the past or the future. Into the past, we can retrieve archives for specific insights or to find out root causes of problems we have at the present for the release of our negative emotions. We can also float into the future to “install” our visions or future selves.

The use of a spacecraft or spaceship for visualization is made with a purpose. A spacecraft can help us to control our timeline session by us hovering above or into the experience of an event. The thing is that certain events may be too traumatic to become associated in an instant. We can feel “safe” looking at a negative event in the past because we are de-associated from it by being in the spacecraft. Using a spacecraft also allows us to gain varying perspectives from different vantage points. We are less emotionally involved and are able to see the bigger picture of things.
