Zevist Testimonials Thread - Meditation, Workings, Rituals, Prayer, Etc.

[Khem Nefermed]

There isn't a thread directly dedicated to this, and while I think bigger testimonials warrant a post, I have a feeling this might help some people express themselves. If anything, it might act as a very good thread for visitors to notice and see the results of our practices.

From speaking to beginners on the path, I notice lack of confidence in our practices, lack of confidence in one's own abilities, and endless skepticism. This is a good thing. If someone in this situation is reading this, do know that having this kind of a skeptical approach will make sure you have sound principles as you advance, and make you less prone to delusions. And do know that fighting against doubts, pushing through with patience, bravery and open curiosity, is a meaningful part of the journey. But it always helps to have others talk about their positive experiences.
(about skepticism and understanding whether our practices "work", I will have a separate post that I will hopefully finish in a timely manner and drop it as a reply)

Feel free to use this thread to share testimonials about your positive experiences on the Zevist path.

This can honestly be anything.

A meditation that gave you an intense and transformative experience.
A Ritual or group Ritual where you had a powerful experience, or received great results.
A working that gave you meaningful, noticeable results.
Your experiences in terms of communication with the Gods, your GD, prayer in times of need, direct experiences with the Gods.

Who knows, maybe you sharing the experience you've had will help encourage another member.
Let's make this a great thread that shows off the transformative power and practical nature of Zevism.

I've already spoken about myself here on the forum a couple of times, so I won't repeat boring stuff. Except to say, never put off your daily spiritual practice. I get up in the morning sometimes and just want a cup of tea and breakfast. But I know as soon as I do that then something else will distract me and before I know it the morning is over.
My advice is to get stuck into your yoga and meditation straight away, and then get on with the day.
That's basically it

Many have incorrect or overly high expectations when they begin their practice, or don't know what to expect. They forget that experiencing a strong buzz of energy, a clear vision, or entering deep meditation takes time. What makes the difference is consistency, and especially at the beginning of the path, the most noticeable effects are seen when, after about a year of meditation, you look back and see how much you've changed for the better.

Much also depends on how much you've meditated in previous lives, so some will experience different effects than others, and it's purely individual. I've noticed how many focus on the path of others, ignoring the fact that every soul is different and has its own unique traits, and everyone has their own challenges to overcome, areas of weakness to improve, etc. With meditation and concrete material actions, we can fix anything and get the most out of life, but we must remember that the spiritual and the material are connected, and it's important to work on both in a balanced way.

For example, you realize you have low self-esteem. Here at ToZ, we have all the tools and knowledge you need to solve the problem. But you won't completely solve it if you only strengthen your solar chakra but then spend all your time indoors eating junk food without taking care of your physical appearance, working towards and achieving your goals, and doing everything else materially necessary to achieve strong self-esteem. What I would recommend for new members is to first read the entire Temple of Zeus, then begin experimenting with the 40-day program.

Then, familiarize yourself with your birth chart and from there, thoroughly identify the areas you need to work on. But the most important thing at the beginning of the journey is to focus on cleansing your soul. Many slags will emerge, and once you've addressed and processed them, you'll be completely reborn.

In my experience, participating in group rituals and understanding how energies work has been very enlightening. Every spiritual work leads to the necessary actions to achieve the goal, and I've experienced this directly with soul purification, blessings, and runic work.

Gradual purification will remove all those negative patterns rooted in the unconscious that lead to repeating the same negative situations, bad habits, and flawed ways of thinking.

After several cycles of this, I returned to the gym, started to focus on my diet, eliminated all bad habits, and changed my mental prompts generated by past negative experiences and traumas. Spirituality is the path, the Temple of Zeus is the path

I’ve been on this path for a very long time, but my skepticism hasn’t gone anywhere, it feels as though it’s become a bad habit that gets in the way of my spiritual journey. Every time before I engage in any practice, my mind starts asking a hundred questions about various nuances, and in those moments I realize that it’s best to just shut it up before it can ruin everything again. Returning to this, I recall my favorite Bhagavad Gita, in which Krishna tells Arjuna that he must fulfill his duty, act regardless of the result what inspires me to keep going

Now, getting back to the matter of practice, yes, our Gods do indeed communicate with us. I communicated with Zeus through mindforms, and Lord Apollo spoke to me directly, both of them insisted that I should begin intensive work on the chakras, I had been putting this task off for a long time because of my skepticism, but now when the Gods are speaking to me directly, I have no right to sit tight and do nothing. So yes, the Gods do push us toward development, but they won’t do all the work for us. To me, they are great teachers, although Lord Apollo sometimes imparts knowledge that is psychologically difficult for me to handle, but in the end, it’s totaly worth it
