I got through a major test in the past days. It was an ongoing thing and not meaningful to mention before. It's hard to tell where you are in the cosmic system, and when you make the leap up for real. Higher levels reflect in those below, there are many parallel dimensions, the same achievement in a smaller aspect of yourself does not effect the main incarnation very much in a direct sense. When guiding someone else to do the same thing, it may be their main breakthrough, but to you it was a side quest and you can't do it like that for yourself. Yet, by the laws of karmic relations and virtue, having helped one person up through their main event, will lead to a feedback which will definitely lead yourself up through your own main event, even if it's larger compared to the other person. 

If you want a "cheat", find the smallest spirit you can, with the easiest path up, and guide them to full on Buddha. Then because it was after all you who did this with their main awareness, the cosmic mechanics will give you as feedback the same guidance for your main awareness, because relative size isn't important between beings, only the self-perceived achievement matters. That's why you should guide small spirits to enlightenment.

There had to be a test, and it turned into the kind of thing which under normal circumstances would turn someone very ill if that karma hits them. It was sudden out of nowhere, in 24 h it went from nothing to being completely tsunami'd  by negative resistance. Throat turned sore, migraines, then soreness all over the body and a mass of black negative energy was pressing against me. Last time this happened on a smaller scale when I was finishing up my Japanese literature course, I took paracetamol, drank coffee and a bottle of white wine to force the extreme external energy pressure into a "relaxed focus". If the force comes from outside, it can also be controlled by external means, and it worked. Once balanced out I got through it and that's how I formed the kitsune kami form (there was a loud bang as I broke through the energy mass after around 6 hours, and all tension was gone instantly). This is the only type of case when any form of drug should be used, can be used, for beneficial effects, imo.

So back to before the weekend, and this was worse, but I also knew I had literally nothing I could use to balance out. I was lying on my yoga mat, and I thought
> I've manifested so many things before, even if most of them were less provable and at a distance
> one old bottle of something shouldn't be impossible
So I told Kit to find a way and focused hard on making it happen, then I felt "it's done". 

For these things to work there has to be a way for the mind to accept the result, so I figured, where could I "happen to find" something? I looked in an old messy storage and found nothing, but I also didn't really think there would be anything there. Then I went to the kitchen larder which though I use it is also a complete mess and I have really no idea what's in there. But I already looked before and...

Anyway, so I climbed up and moved aside a bunch of old vases and bottles and in the back of the top shelf I found pic related, a bottle of white wine and a 1/3 filled bottle of rum. Theoretically they could have been there all along. I looked it up just now, this cognac was bottled in the 1970s... But yeah, no one has ever cleaned there so maybe it was there all along.

Either way it worked, came through the negative force by molding it into a spike, and the cognac played a part in this.
