Who inspired you first:
Eckhart Tolle is the person who awoke me a while ago and made me curios about this whole life and conscious and relationships between the body and mind. People have differnt speakers and books and legends and thinkers who inspired them into the state of awakening.
I would recommend his audibooks/books to anyone who wants to understand who we are and how we should think and change our preception...

so who was yours BTW?

No-one!

I'd always from a very young age questioned things and used to go to sleep thinking there were other worlds or parallel realities, like jelly moulds above and below us but all slightly different or other times i would think the earth was just a dust particle inside a hoover bag and that when wind blew it was the hoover being turned on. Another one i used to think when falling asleep was that our galaxy was the coloured bit in a marble and that there were loads of different marbles..

I was really shocked to see that was the ending of some alien film a few years ago, i think it's MiB isn't it?

I started looking into all of this in more detail once i became a teenager and for years wouldn't read or listen to anything Icke said because i believed the media crap about him being a looney. Then in 2003 I realised he was on the same wavelength and he wasn't some nutter like the media had said.

At a young age I thought there was secrets I didn't know about but I always believed the media and I thought that its the way things should be, until had my awakening which I remember I even tried not to believe myself and told myself that I was paranoid and all sorts of things but I came out of it...

I've always questioned virtually everything... and as a consequence, spent a lot of my school years:- on detention; on report; suspended; expelled...

I was a bad boy. :( Don't worry though, that was all part of my life experience... I just never 'fitted in'. :)

David Icke 'woke me up' (to the 'NWO')... from about 1997/98! :)

I suppose I've always been like 'Number 6' (from 'The Prisoner')- always asking "Why?"... never wanting to conform.

:cool:

You're such a 'one-off'... I think you inspire yourself... that's more than enough inspiration for most people. :rolleyes:

I've been looking for spiritual side of things at a young age, also due to oobe's. During teenage years this naturally slipped, because of different life views, interests, hobbies etc.
When my grandmother died 6 years ago I've seen things that got me thinking again, and eventually lead me to some books about spirituality.

About the whole conspiracy stuff, this is much more new to me. I've always been fascinated by the alien stories and was looking for info on the web,
and somewhere over a year ago I got to reptilians (:D) and eventually David Icke ofcourse. It was the bloody reptiles! :D

In the end, who or what is responsible for the inspiration, Where does it all come from? It's the soul that guides you.
Nothing material is our priority, because it has all been given by the soul, so don't abuse and use it wisely.:)

Natural hater of authority but punk rock bands like Crass aided it, the stuff on their record sleeves depicted the world as a very sick place, something my 12 year old mind couldn't quite see. Then I grew up.......

I didn’t really think much about anything when a toddler although I do recall sitting in-front of a television set and wondering how they got all those little guys inside that little wooden box with the hazy grey screen…Those darned clever folks are so deceptive…:rolleyes:

ditto. but i think the first person (though indirectly) was Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi (http://sahajayoga.org). i took part in one of her meditation programs while in India, which was my first experience with meditation. let alone kundalini! the first book was 'The Secret', which was a real eye-opener for me at the time.

Yeah great book - read it when it first came out, was in my mid-teens. Edward de Bono and Anthony de Mello were two other authors who influenced me alot early on.
