My Two Near Death Experiences

astrogoodwin's avatarastrogoodwin Spiritual Website

Back in March 1992 I had what I believe really strongly where near death experiences.  I was trying to get media attention to my spiritual ideas and also trying to have some political impact during the election(primaries) happening at that time.  A lot of people where running as political outsiders and I felt I was the real outsider.  I wrote an article(letter to the editor) for the local newspaper in Roanoke VA. about how important character and really feeling empathy for people is to choosing a good political leader.  I was not happy by how slow they responded to it and sense psychically that they were rejecting it.  (This article was put in the newspaper as an op-ed quite a bit later).  I felt like I was not being listened to and that I could contribute a lot to helping make people sensitive to the concerns of those who often…

Developing a new astrology system

An astrology system developed in an age before the science existed to truly understand the Universe and the huge number of Galaxies that existed, the black hole that is in the center of our Galaxy, our nearest Star, and all the outer planets is going to be very limited in its effectiveness.  It will work to quite a degree due to the power of belief and so much leeway in interpretation due to so many ways of interpreting it.   We tend to get stuck in the past on this spiritually backward planet and stuck on mythology that is not backed up enough by how effective it works.

I was born neurologically different with limited visual memory and finer motor skills.  A lot of people are born neurologically different with some more “unique” than others, and often their talents are wasted on a planet that gets too much into an overly simplistic one size fits all approach toward its inhabitants  with “locked in religious/spiritual beliefs and modern science adding to this.   Ego plays a strong role in keeping most people from doing the really hard work required to advance in their spiritual sensitivity toward themselves and others especially those who do not fit in very well!  A lot of “genius” is thus wasted on this planet.  A mythology around the word “genius” has developed that limits the number of people who can fit into this category and making it a category people tend to be afraid to strive for.

At an early age, I quickly became very  heavily dependent on my spirit and the spiritual to guide me and lost a lot of my trust in others in this world to be that helpful to me in times of crisis in my life.  Although people have tended to help me with out me asking. I lost a lot of my faith in the level of expertise existing on this planet due to how inept these experts were in understanding the very intense  situation I was facing in my life adjusting to a world that was so insensitive to those with the limitations and special abilities people who are “neurologically different” or “differenty abled” often possess.

My focus on dependence on myself spiritually even led to me not even letting someone  know(who saw the tears in my eyes) that I didn’t have enough money for a bus to get home from High School in Manchester NH to end of the bus line in Goffstown NH.  My mother I though was suppose to pick me up, but didn’t!  So I took the Bus using what money I had, but did not pay the rest of the money when due upon getting off the bus.  The bus driver probably was affected by the spiritual state I was in so did not appear to notice my not paying.

I developed an interest in the occult and various alternative views of the spiritual at an early age and stopped attending Catholic Church in my early teens.  I did still go to a Catholic High School even though I was no longer a believer.  I never really was that strong a believe when younger because of some  my early experiences with the Church that let me know they did not have their act together spiritually enough to treat me well enough.

I first started with more traditional Astrology, reading a bunch of charts starting around 1976(born Oct 1951).  I quickly became creative and experimented with many variations still holding on to the traditional.  My intuition helped me a lot in my readings, but I felt I relied to much on my intuition to correct the inadequacies of the astrology system I was using.  In the later part 1992 after years of playing with some components of the traditional astrology system and experimenting with new meditative walking and other techniques I had developed, I tried to connect with the media and reach them with my spiritual ideas and also affect the politics of this election year.  The pressure of doing this(with the negative spiritual reactions that cam back my way) was too much for me physically/emotionally resulting in my heart rhythm messing up.  I had that happen before as a result of the extreme exercises I would do in running and walking swinging heavy dumbbell hand weights.  I used meditative breathing to take care of that heart rhythm problem which worked well at the times required.  But, when I tried it under the stress in I faced in late 1992, I had to keep doing it continuously and could not stop in order to sleep.  When I finally fell asleep when extremely sleep deprived while still fighting to keep up the meditative breathing, I had a near death experience which required all the effort I could muster to come back from.  I have a blog on this experience.  This experience and the psychological/spiritual states it put me in led to me reevaluating all of my spiritual  beliefs and to take a completely fresh approach to m astrology system, and no longer trusting any of the mythology based ideas I still had programmed into me.  I became an awful  lot more logic based(rational) in my spiritual approach from then on.

Update on Shoulder Dislocation recovery problem

11/21/18  Finally went to Doctor using my medicare and medicaid and had my arm x-rayed and the shoulder is definitely dislocated! I think it was not completely relocated in the VA emergency room and over time went back to complete dislocation. I did nothing in my sleep or other wise that should have dislocated it if it had been put back all the way! I was really careful! There nay have been reasons related to other damage done at the time that affected the situation! The medical people involved in trying to fix the dislocation may not have been the best due to it being early Easter morning that they had to be called in! I waited a long time for them to arrive! My arm never felt right and did not move toward my chest properly even immediately after the procedure. I should have it done correctly this time! They should be able to do it in such a way that it will not easily dislocate again. I am always careful and realize that having one dislocation increases the odds of another happening. I am not using the VA hospital this time.

12/3/18 Went to Orthopedic specialist and found out that all my options are risky, so I decided to live with the limitations of my right shoulder. I can live with them! I do not want to do anything that will not guarantee an improvement in my present state. I will continue to stretch my dislocated shoulder and focus my energy into my extremely intense spiritual focus. I do best when taking care of my own health and not depending on the healthcare industry. There is risk involved in being a spiritual pioneer. But I feel I have achieved a lot despite the price I had to pay as a result. Dealing with the accident to my right shoulder did give me the focus required to make a great deal of progress spiritually. I went with out pain killers almost completely while healing from the accident/fall to the degree I have.

Smug, arrogant, and clueless

A lot of people on the planet Earth buy into lock in(addictive) authoritative belief that give them a superior spiritual attitude unjustified by how well they are able to perform in the challenging reality they exist in! Human beings have the capability to take charge of their spiritual energy and to stop being passive and a victim of instinctual impulses! Not only do most Religions take a very passive spiritual approach while conceding to an authoritarian dogma not to be questioned, but Science often also tends to deny our spiritual potential to have much impact on our own spiritual destiny individually and thus have greater spiritual impact on the future of our planet! Science tends to see our biology and instinctual side as being really dominant and tend to discount the positive value spiritual will power has in transforming us. Drugs and medications tend to be over depended on and will power tends to be discounted.

It is just hard for most people on this planet to see how backward they are spiritually and the part they play in helping to keep this planet so backward spiritually! The spiritual actually operates in a very rational way, but antiquated spiritual beliefs are often based more on mythology than on how reasonable they are when it comes to helping us adjust to and perform in the challenging reality this highly advanced technological age we live in has brought about!

Human being are actually capable of behaving in a more rational in tune with realty way. Our rational mind created our advanced technology and now our rational mind needs to help us to advance a lot further in regard to our spiritual maturity and our ability to take on more responsibility spiritually for the state this world is in. We can become major spiritual actors with a lot of positive impact on the world we exist in, and become more empowered as front line spirits rather than just concede to the spiritual status quo and the inflexible authoritative energy that supports it. An all powerful God is not going to solve our problems for us, we must grow up spiritually and take on the spiritual role we are capable of! A lot of people in this world are just smug, arrogant, and clueless spiritually and are upholding a spiritual status quo that is keeping this world in such a really backward state spiritually through their unwillingness to challenge and work to improve on the spiritual beliefs/theories they have been programmed with deep within themselves!

Below this paragraph is a link to links to a lot of the huge volume of spiritual stuff I have place all over the internet over a ten year period. I developed a new astrology system not based on ancient mythology, but on rational spiritual theories and tested by how well they enable me to push the edge safely with the extremely intense spiritual/meditative training I developed and do! I have had an extreme creative spiritual focus my whole life, since I am “differently abled”(limited visual memory and finer motor skills) in a way that I am not good at anything else. My uniqueness has made my survival on this planet extremely difficult which required me to really depend on continuous spiritual growth to an extreme degree to ensure this survival as things in this world  for me became rougher an rougher over time! The shoulder dislocation and disability in my right arm only added to my challenges and spiritual demands on me. Necessity is often the mother of invention, and I am an extreme case of this being true!

Forced to move in order to survive and reach the right people with my advanced spiritual ideas!

Just got our eviction notice, so we(me&3 other associates)will be moving to Las Vegas the middle of June! I always live on the edge of survival although most people caught up in the normal inadequate spiritual programming of our times are clueless as to my unique situation in this world. I am a one of a kind spiritually due to my decades of efforts in this area, and will count on my spiritual uniqueness and extremely advanced spiritual capabilities I have developed through years of extremely hard creative work to make my value noticed to the right people.

I have so much spiritual stuff on the internet that just has not reached many people despite its value. We live in a world in which some people just are not in position to be heard and a certain dominating and limiting mindset prevents certain ideas from being heard! But, ! must make myself heard and go to a place where I can attract attention to myself and what I am capable of! I may have a very weak position in this world, but I feel extremely strong spiritually and will take on any spiritual challenges that come my way as I always have!

My astrology system(based on universal physical-spiritual connection) is amazingly good as a rational spiritual tool, but because it is so unique and not based on some ancient addictive type mythology, it is hard to get most people to see its value! Addictive mythology based beliefs just still dominate this world with most people being clueless as to how this is holding this world back spiritually while creating so many serious problems here that can not continue to be ignored without disastrous result in the future!

This link will connect people who are seriously interested in an effective rational reality based spirituality to an awful lot of the spiritual stuff I have  posted on the internet!  Astrogoodwin is my internet name!

After shoulder dislocation, Pictures/video showing very limited range of motion in shoulder!

video done JUN 4th 2018:

Demonstrating how I still have limited range of motion a long time after my dislocated shoulder occurred the night before Easter(APR 1). Video done JUN 4. I can use my uninjured left arm to stretch my injured right arm further which demonstrates some of my shoulder muscles in my right arm do not function at this time! I do continue to stretch my right arm with and without the help of my left arm! I do swing a 5 lb dumbbell through this range of motion I have in my right arm to strengthen it and can do a bicep curl holding two 5 lb dumbbells in my right hand. Also can do a squat to chest exercise two handed with 20 lb dumbbell for over 1 minute now!
For further background on this accident and my rehab start with this blog post and then check out later blog posts on this subject:

https://astrogoodwin.wordpress.com/2018/04/07/how-am-i-feeling-6-days-after-my-shoulder-was-dislocated-and-put-back-early-easter-sunday/

My range of motion in my right arm is quite limited. I did have my dislocated arm worked on at the VA hospital ER on Easter morning and I am sure the professionals brought in on call after me waiting a number of hours in pain did the best they could with the help of Xrays! I just had a lot more damage from my very hard fall onto a concrete sidewalk than just a dislocation as pain in elbow, hand, upper arm, shoulder and ribs for weeks after accident continuing to the present seems to indicate. Have not been back to VA hospital since missing a walk in type appointment due to not finding parking in massive traffic jam at hospital 8 days later on a Tuesday! I was in pain and my friend driving was also in pain due to injuries still healing from an car accident around Halloween! I gave up on the VA which was hard to get rides to and which may have costed me time and money I could not afford with my dire financial situation!

6/13/18 updated with latest video on my progress!

How am I feeling 6 days after my shoulder was dislocated and put back early Easter Sunday?

At times not good at all: fever and nausea with intense pain in arm, at other times a lot better! Use ice on forehead and arm. Getting a little better over time. Must sleep sitting up using pillow on table or arm will hurt too much, Appointment Tuesday! Do not want to use the VA hospital too much! once cleared to rehab my injury I can do so myself using really good videos on youtube. I just did a lot of damage! I do not want a huge bill and do not trust the medical profession that much when it comes to understanding my unique body! I do feel that as soon as my tissues heals enough, I will start making really fast progress! I just have a very sensitive body that has been really pushed to the edge. But I am use to living on the edge and really trust my intuition will guide me well in the healing process! I do not take pain killers now, did take Ibuprofen at the beginning, but did not like the acid reflux and other side affects. So a lot of the pain is the result of this. But. I feel that I will heal faster if I feel the pain and am not knocked with pain killers. I am optimistic that I will come back stronger than ever! Tuesday will give me information on how the healing process is going! All so complicated. My body is use to being pushed hard by me, so I will continue to challenge it in any way I think will speed up its progress even if at times quite painful!

When I fell while doing a meditative walk in the dark last Saturday around 10 PM and dislocated my shoulder and with the strong yanking done to get it back in place, muscle/tissue damage was done! I do not normally do well with the medical profession and my neurologically different body! I am good at doing my own research and self treating my own body! I am not concerned with it dislocating again since my body tends to be tight rather than loose which is what makes recurring dislocation more frequent and happen more often with younger people. My accident happened in a way that was like an instant complete stop upon forward moving impact with the ground and the impact was very violent and quite a shock! The dislocation did not happen easily!
My world has not fallen apart because of the shoulder dislocation that occurred as a result of a fall! I will make a fast recovery and still be more advanced in my meditative exercise techniques than anyone else afterwards, since I will not lose most of my head start I have as a result of all my past effort and training! I did have to make one more adjustment to my astrology system that only an accident like this one would force me to! I immediately was doing daily quarter mile painful meditative walks, and after practicing my running in short bursts inside my house for a while started doing daily runs of a quarter of a mile also! I will be ready! I will be doing some strengthening of my left arm soon so that it can help my other arm to be able to handle the type of 2 handed dumbbell swings I do sooner!
I have become a lot better at using my left arm and hand due to not being able to use my dominant right! Eating can be messy, but I am getting better at it. I do have finer motor skill limitations that affect my left arm/hand more tan my right. This was typed with one hand and mostly using two fingers on it!

I find that orgasmic like bliss and hedonistic desire hinder meaningful spiritual development

I am into leading a meaningful life! People like my healing energy and find my serious creative approach toward the spiritual often as quite entertaining despite its serious purpose geared to making a positive difference in a world that badly needs to improve the spiritual state it is in! It is true that I am not much into orgasms, since I tend to utilize my sexual energy for more serious spiritual purposes. Orgasm actually is not required in order to develop more intimacy sexually! And orgasm when it does happen can bring a deeper sense of closeness without putting one in some drug like “bliss” state! So many people are addicted to sex for how it makes them feel, and do not really connect really deeply with their partner! Most of us are just not very good at really connecting deeply spiritually with ourselves or others on this planet! People often feel strongly connected with others when they share drug like experiences that do not create really deep or meaningful connections with the level of understanding that comes with them! If we are to heal ourselves and our planet we have to take a lot more serious approach toward life and stop being so heavily into hedonistic desires.
Being in a blissful/intoxicated state tend to disconnect people from reality! So many people have spiritual beliefs that seek a blissful state, rather than the more serious state required to make a really positive and meaningful difference in a world that has so many serious problems that need to be addressed! We have so many harmful drugs in our society that handicap our ability to get the most out of ourselves spiritually and be able to be serious enough to do what it takes to heal ourselves and our planet! We have too many spiritual beliefs that support a type of intoxicating spiritual escapism that makes it difficult for people to focus their spiritual energy in a really serious way on the challenging physical world we exist in and all the serious problems that exist in it! We need spiritual theories that help us to better connect and cope with the reality we now exist in on this planet rather than the desire to escape from it!
I have so much valuable spiritual stuff of value on the internet representing a lifetime of intense spiritual effort to improve the spiritual theories and techniques that exist on this spiritually backward planet: https://astrogoodwin.wordpress.com/2017/10/09/links-to-my-spiritual-stuff-on-internet/

Theoretical Physics is not a good basis for developing spiritual theories

This is what I posted in response to this YouTube video: “Victor Stenger Skepticon 3 The Abuse of Physics by Theist and Spiritualists”

Theoretic physics is not a good basis for developing spiritual theories. One needs to use really effective intense and difficult meditative exercise techniques to fine tune ones spiritual sensitivity and build up ones spiritual/emotional strength so that one will be able to better figure out what spiritual theories will enable one to perform more effectively in this challenging physical universe we are part of. To anyone well tuned in spiritually, this world now will appear very backward spiritually when it comes to how well we are able to perform in a very challenging highly technologically advance world we now live in in which small mistakes can sometimes have extremely heavy consequences.

I avoid heavy polarization that tend to be so dominant in this world and adds to so much conflict and trouble in this world and prevents people from working together well to find better solutions to the difficult problems of our times. Often the truth will be found somewhere in the complicated middle where a lot of variables and angles need to be dealt with. I am a very unusual person who has his focus on the spiritual frontier, so I do tend to identify to quite a degree with those on the frontier of science. But, I feel science has gotten far ahead of where we are spiritually on this planet. I feel we are capable of getting a lot more out of ourselves spiritually/emotionally and that science will advance even farther once we advance further in how much we all can get out of ourselves spiritually!!

Very tough for a “differently abled” spiritual pioneer on a spiritually backward planet

I keep taking 3 grams of vitamin C a day to keep me from getting sick as I continue to push myself closer to the edge spiritually with my extremely intense meditative walking, meditative running and meditative dumbbell swing exercise routines! I do take 2 B-complex vitamin tablets, a multivitamin mineral tablet and 2 calcium-magnesium-zinc tablets a day!  Routinely I eat oatmeal with each of my 6 meal small calorie restricted meals which also contain a helping of canned greens(mainly spinach)or an occasional raw tomato or fruit.   Most people in this spiritually backward world do not value whether someone with my unique spiritual abilities is able to survive here and it is so hard to reach those that are truly open to a spiritual pioneer like me! It is do so hard to wake this world up spiritually so that it will develop the spiritual maturity to handle the intense problems that come with the advanced technological age we now exist in! I now weight 121 at 5′ 10″ with the spiritual ascetic body type I am creating! I am not restrained by the conservative spiritual mindset of science or of the predominating spiritual beliefs of the past! I am a spiritual realist and not into crazy spiritual beliefs created by wild imaginations that do not interface that well with the type of reality we now exist in!

I have spent a lot of my life having a certain amount of denial of being “differently abled”! This is not surprising since most other people tended to be in denial of this about me also! I now need to really stand up for myself and fight the spiritual insensitivity that exists in this world toward people with very special abilities that come as the result of being very limited in what they are able to do! In order to advance further spiritually and in other ways in this world we need to better utilize all the talent we have in this world! Everyone can also develop more of their capabilities provided they develop more spiritual sensitivity toward themselves and others as unique individuals!
