It's 8 AM here in California. I will probably spend most of the day listening to music and getting caught up on, "Married at First Sight". My favorite pizza place _and_ seafood place are both closed today, so I'm just going to make a salad.
My extended family have traditionally come from far & wide for dinner on Easter, though we lost several of them last year. I imagine your family back in Europe are missing you.
I had lunch with my daughters and their families. We tried flying kites, but the wind needs to be a little stronger. I hope you've had a wonderful day!
That was so refreshingly deep and lucid. I say so many of the same things. I was put (with the best of intentions) in a Christian private church and school as a little kid. That place was really abusive and horrible, and when I was 14 I had to engineer a way to get kicked out. I did so successfully. The place later was in the news twice for being a cult. I noticed as a young kid that when they accepted the preacher’s firey rhetoric for being “special” because of this place, their egos inflated, and that’s where they got a hook in people. Life is whatever it is. And that is whatever it happens to be in any given moment. And you exist, you are the truth as much as I am. But we’re somewhat intertwined, and profoundly out of reach at the same time. No one knows what happens when we die. No one knows why it is that anything ever happened at all. Why physics? Why anything? Some part of life is human, and that part of life doesn’t even understand itself. And that’s incredible. That each moment of our existence, the most mundane moment, is part of a profound mystery. The deeper inside of separateness we look, we find the endless oneness. But we don’t know how far separateness goes in the opposite direction. Life seems capable of creating something new. Life is unpredictable and wild and vast. You have appreciate the preciousness of life, and the rare moments in time where it’s possible to dance and bring joy and mystery and growth and laughter, because life is brutal. Thank you so much for sharing your perspective, so beautifully.
Oh wow, thank you so much for watching and for you lovely words! You clearly bring a lot of deep insight into this conversation 🥰💕 And good on you for getting kicked out of that place! 🔥
Hi Helena, can't imagine 6x pollen with allergies and no antihistamine ssry, hope your Easter was great, Easter was actually bad this year was mourning, and with religion got through, think it's a belief in religion? I'm Catholic and almost lost faith, couldn't go to church, so prayed whenever could, God understands? great video,
After just viewing this for the first time I was thinking how your words validated a lot of what I believe. I believe Jesus was and is divine. He was, also, a man who lived and breathed in a human body. He could relate to the human experience. He lived and loved abundantly. He brought heaven down to earth for us to experience. He accepted ALL. He was radical in his inclusiveness. When you take only his words out of the story you have a story of love and compassion. When people start condemning others for there beliefs you instantly depart from a loving heart. You said it right, we all have a spark of the living light of God in us. We all live on this sacred earth. It is up to us to see the beauty that surrounds us and to encourage others, even through struggles, to see the Joy that abounds in this heaven on earth. Enjoying life is our birthright. Thank you for opening up a path for loving Light to shine forth on all.
Spot on Helena. I agree with you 100%. Glad to hear you are aware, conscious and not a zombie! I am a recovering Catholic also, I understand now why I hated church and every thing about it. Thanks for having the courage to share with us. I feel we all reincarnate until we get it right and are able to ascend. Right now I feel we are at the end of God plan, we already had the 1000 years of peace. There is so much to say on this subject. We have been lied to about everything, period. The bible was 777 books taken to current 66 books at the Council if Nicea, directed by the more than evil Constantine. Divine feminine is coming back if not already here! I really enjoy talking this spirituality since we are now currently in a spiritual war. People just don't know it! Best Wishes to you!!
As a practicing Christian I like a lot of what you teach. We are all so lacking in sex education, especially those of us brought up in the church. We, your devoted subscribers, are mature enough to take what we like from your teaching and leave what we don't like or don't agree with. I don't agree with what you say about Jesus & the bible, but am very open to my own beliefs needing adjustment. Keep up the great work please :-)
Thank you so much for your lovely message, John! 🥰 At the end of the day, we don't know anything for sure so we need to decide what we want to believe in. And that can be different things for different people 😊💕
Happy Resurrection Day Helena!! You are Spot on! I too was indoctrinated in Catholicism. Later in life, I questioned these same things you are speaking of. I became quite upset, stomping my feet, and demanded I know the truth! What resulted was a very in-depth study of the original languages of Hebrew and Greek. My finding is almost exactly as you said. Those who translated the original words, did so in order to control the masses. I found The Original message to say that there will be a short time period of correction for most of humanity, at the conclusion of which, All who ever lived Will be reconciled back to God. So, your intuition, is nearly perfectly in line with what I found is actually written in the Original form. With all of this in mind, even if I do not meet you in this life, we surely shall meet in the next 😊❤️ I have so much more good news words to offer on this ❤️ Thank you for Your thoughts this morning, and Gods blessings to You 😊 Rick
@@helenanistavlogs The Love of God toward us all, is Deeper and more beautiful than Any of us could possibly imagine. Even towards the worst of us. And after He is finished correcting us, (according to what is written) He will change us all by means of purification, so that even the worst of the worst, will become better than the Best person was while in the flesh 😊😊😊❤️
@@helenanistavlogs I would like to have someone like you by my side, to have real conversations with, to help through the extremely difficult times ahead of us. I will be her hero, pleasing, protecting, defending, and providing for her. Rick
Helena, I can’t believe how close your belief system is to mine. I’m the sort of person that find sign posts where someone of a spiritual nature says something to me. And then go and investigate it to work out weather its right for me. I try and follow my instincts as well.
Helena, I want to thank you for giving us this window into your spiritual convictions. It takes a good amount of thick skin to put yourself out there in that way. I have to apologize on behalf of my _ostensible_ fellow believers who have sent you hate simply because they disagree with you. I don't think Jesus taught us to hate anyone. But then again, there are hypocrites even among atheists. Some of the most judgmental people I know are card-carrying skeptics and agnostics.
I n 2023, I was brought into the hospital in the am, and expected to be dead by nightfall. The die was cast. First time I ever spoke to Jesus. He gave me a medical miracle and no doctor could explain why, but every one of them was shocked. The last doctor said, “only God knows.” And that is the answer. I’m fine today. Another miracle. Thank you Jesus. I asked and he granted my request. It’s not a coincidence. A miracle is an event for which there is no explanation. I didn’t even get theoretical possibilities from doctors. . And now Doll, I get to watch you and celebrate your birthday ❤ Again, thank you Jesus for your mercy and love. The spiritual realm is real. It is the world behind the world and it’s power, both positive and negative are manifested in this worldly dimension. When you open your heart and mind, spirits may reveal themselves. I am testament to a true miracle. why me?, I don’t know, but I’ll keep asking until I get an answer. Until then, I’ll just continue to express my gratitude and search for a birthday gift.
@@helenanistavlogs I got exactly what I asked for which was contrary to all medical expectations. Jesus was showing off.😊 Now that I know he’s listening, I talk to him regularly. He reeled me right in. It’s a very strange experience talking to doctors who expected you to be already dead and are both surprised and confused as to why you’re not. Doll, you’re in my prayers.
Hi Helena... As the topic is about religion, spirituality & stuffs. I just wanted to share some excerpts / thoughts. Kama/Kaama(lust) is the root of the world's existence. All that is born originates from Kama, it is by Kama also that primordial matter and all beings eventually dissolve away. Without [passion of] Lord Shiva and Goddess Shakti, creation would be nothing but a figment, nothing from birth to death occurs without activation of Kama. Shiva is manifest as the great linga, Shakti essential form is the YONI. By their interaction, the entire world comes into being; this is called the activity of Kama. Erstwhile known as Avatara.... So again just ignore your haters... You are wonderful and doing a great job and you are very inspiring as well.. Kudos to you 😊 and keep up up the good work 👍 Also eagerly waiting for your next video. 😃 Either on this channel or the other channel of yours 😊 Take care 😊👍
I'm actually of Polish Decent my grandparents were of the German minority in Poland so I grew up in a religious and I still observe some aspects of Christianity in my life and visit Poland when ever I can .
I believe spirituality is something personal, n i don't believe man made theories and traditional things about Christianity . But i still believe God exist. I support you Miss Helena. N religion is something personal so everyone to his own..
Second, one has to be careful with the idea "I am my own god." That was the temptation offered to Eve and Adam - you will be as gods. And it didn't work out that way, it was a lie.
I like your thoughts on this. I know this was from a few months ago and I was scrolling through your vlogs. I go to a church however it is nondenominational and we accept all points of views from every belief system but do not indoctrinate any one belief. We are fond of saying we are spiritual beings having a human experience. I was brought up in the Baptist religion. And every thing you thought was going to lead you to Hell. Well you sure were not going to leave the church happy if you were going to Hell for every thought you had or if you drink a beer or other adult beverage or if you dressed a certain way.. So for years I stayed away from church. I have found the place I go to now through family that felt the same way I did. And the church I go to does not believe in Hell or really even sin for that matter.. They say all that so called sin is is merely missing the mark. And God. Jesus, Divine Spirit or what ever you want to call your higher power offers you infinite second chances. You may even call it The Universe as some of us do. Anyway I just wanted to comment and tell you that you are inspirational to a lot of people and thank you for being who you are...... Namaste 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm eternally fascinated with other people's experiences because I will never be able to live it all myself. I love your share and I love it that you found a church that works for you and supports you in living your best life 🥰
Well, you have the courage of your beliefs. But one can try something, and decide it was off. There is no greater joy, if that is what you're after, than participation in the reality of God.
#1) Open your heart and your mind to your angels and they will reveal themselves to you. We all have them and they know why you’re here. #2) Be kind. Do 1&2 and your life will be rewarded. Ours is the toughest physical experience of all worlds and we chose to be here to learn whatever it is we needed to learn. Choosing this physical experience twice is apparently unusual. Heaven and Hell, demons and angels are right here in this physical experience with us. There is more here than meets the eye. The minds eye can see much when opened. You are such a beautiful soul Helena. So easy to love. So many if your videos are a door into who you really are. Just beautiful and lovable all the way through.😘The meaning of life is to love and be kind in a place when it is difficult. This world is the toughest. People like you will make me want to return again. So easy to love you are.
Rosie, your cat, has pondered deeply over these same topics, and has concluded that very often "Religious Obsession Suppresses Independent Experience". 🐥 Happy Easter.
I feel for you with the allergies. I had five years of allergy shots and I still have to use Claratrin D and Flonaise everyday or else I can't function.
It was courageous to state your philosophy of life, since it invites comments. Just a few. First, the Bible is not edited. There have been archaeological discoveries, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, which are evidence that it's not edited. And it doesn't make sense that it would be edited - the Israelites see this book as the Word of God which they have to follow to survive, they would not edit it.
In regard to priests, one asks the question, Did God become man, or appear to man, and tell us something? If not, it's all opinion, but if so, then we do have access to the truth.
This is really insightful, Helena 😊 Thanks a lot for this video... Ignore the haters... Your videos are always amazing.. Kudos to you 👍 Get Well Soon and Take Care of your health 👍
Oh Helena, Your personal vlogs are such a joy as I recover from the flu! What you say is so wise. The bible is not a book. It's a compilation of books, written in different registers of language. From story telling in visual imagery, to 'history' (in the non-narrative sense of the Ancient World) to personal remembrances of Jesus's life to the poetry of the Psalms. Jesus had very little to say about sex, at least as interpreted by fundamental Christians ('yet ye without sin be the first to cast the stone'; allowing his feet to be washed (in view of the cultural traditions of the time); dining with tax collectors and prostitutes). And A LOT more to say about how we should relate to each other. And humility. (Many will open up a theological debate about this that I have no desire to engage in. I am not a theologian. But remember the Gospel of John before the critics throw the brickbats - Jesus desired a relationship of friendship with, not mastery of, us.) I have come to the realisation that there is nothing wrong in healthily inhabiting sexuality. It's natural and very good. There is a space for tradition and teaching. The 'Magisterium', to which you allude. But the Church is run by human beings, with all their flaws and egos and problems. As have been so vividly demonstrated throughout all history including recent history. A Cistercian monk, Thomas Merton, said of Thich Nhat Hanh, 'I have much more in common with him than many people of my country, and religion, as we see things exactly the same way.' There is a common core of human wisdom in many faith traditions that speaks to what a good life well lived is. And it doesn't lie in unquestioning fidelity to the Bishop of Rome. But it does lie in respect and love for each other and a belief that life is not without meaning (not nihilistic, in other words), but is made beautiful by ethics and respect for each other. Whether that lies in belief in a divine power or simply a unifying principle of the Universe. It is not about punishment of sin, but growing in behaving skilfully towards each other, without ignorance. I have found Thay (Thich Nhat Hanh) to have the most useful things to say to me, but Buddhism is cast in 'teaching precepts', not 'sin' ... I am sorry you have had negative feedback from fundamentalists. There is nothing poisonous in what you bring in your other channel. It is, indeed, very beautiful. As are you. (And I don't mean that in a self-evident physical sense ... .) I have been plagued with Catholic guilt about sexuality all my life until a few years ago. I finally met the person who has allowed me to know there is nothing shameful in what we share together - in heart, mind, body and soul (despite not being married and not wishing for children). And my wish to give her pleasure so exceeds my wish to take pleasure for myself ☺... And your other channel allows me to explore some understandings and techniques to bring her new surprises! For which, thank you ... A.
Helena WOW! Your very open minded towards religion and your out look on this topic is awesome. With yiu I guess do what works for you and makes you happy. I believe humans need something to believe in and worship and we have since the beginning of time. It's our human nature to have something to believe in. Have a great Easter. 👏👏👏👏👍👍❤️💗💕😎
That R you nailed it. They can R anything in a book. Just because you don,t go to church dosen,t make you a bad person. And sex and religion don,t have anything to do with each other. Happy Easter. Be your own person not what someone wants you to be.
You remind me of Bart Ehrman in a way. He was brought up a Fundamentalist, and when he realized that Bible all be read literally as the Fundamentalists hold, he dropped everything and became an agnostic. You were raised Catholic, with deprivation in the society, and you seem to have thrown it all over in your life. Well, that takes courage. And perhaps trying something can show if it's a good idea or not.
For me I practice the traditional Nordic faith and follow the Norse gods such as Odin and Thor . I think Scandinavia belongs to the Nordic people and the Nordic faith .
Nailed it! If Yeshua came back he would say ‘Guys this isn’t what I meant.’….🤣The more I learn the less I know in this life! We have been soooo scammed 🙀
@@helenanistavlogs Thank you for your insightful vids! I just found you today. I am just learning to raise kundalini thingy 🥴 Do you have info on g-spot? Husband and I learned that years ago. Does that connect with kundalini? I have questions 🤷🏻♀️💜🇨🇦🤣
@@carfast3 And the G-Spot isn't linked to raising the Kundalini energy. In order to raise it, you'll need to work with your chakras and with channeling your energy up through them 🥰
Hahaha, your hands move like a real Italian already! Religion always hard topic. I believe that if you think something it will happen except the jackpot or lotery. Some call it the secret, I call it the Force. It's energy. Meaning of life: enjoy as much as you can and be nice to others. Kisses 😘😘😘💋💋💋
Jesus all the way Man or woman are not perfect Jesus words are clear I was born into catholic No longer a catholic Trust in god and surrender to Jesus and have a relationship 😘
Religion and liquor should be taken in moderation. If you overdose the results could be disastrous. Your choice of religion should be as personal as your choice of undergarments!
I Believe the Popes had a lot to do with all the bible changes And sometimes set the bar to high for themselves But the good books are guide lines for how one should be in an IDEAL situation And its good to have guidelines Your courses are guidelines for a more spiritual and healthful relationship thats why im watching you (well not the only reason) Its just like the guy running the hot dog stand A person trying to loose weight orders three Kosher jumbo dogs with chili sour cream cheese and coleslaw and a Diet coke whats the diet coke for thats not going to erase the sin so if you sin (so to speak) do it right have the dogs with the regular better tasting coke unless you like the tast of diet coke (who does) your paying the price anyway Thats my view 😶
Yep, the thing is. No churches align with the real teaching of Jesus. As you mentioned, "how these teachings were interpreted". Now then, since im a muslim: have you read the quran? Like, do you have a copy of the quran? (you can get one for free if you dont have one tho) Actually, when you mentioned "bible has been highly edited". I really hope that you actually have truly read the whole bible yourself. Not getting this information from non christian sources, like atheist chan. So, when you read the quran, you can notice the different between the two and you can be fair to yourself. And i really hope that you dont have too much prejudice when reading the quran. As you ve mentioned "indoctrinate you in an exactly same way". I can assure you that the quran and islam is pretty much having different core teaching than christianity (catholic, protestant, lutheran, orthodox, those are christianity). Just be open minded (well, be more open minded for your case. As it seems you re pretty open minded enough already). Regarding many religions tho. In islam we believe that The Creator has sent so many prophets and messengers all over the world in the past since adam (adam is one of the prophets. The first prophet). We call it the age of prophet hood. These prophets and messengers were given the revelation from The Creator. Often, different people/tribes would be given some different revelations. Because people werent connected. However, the main message was always the same: worshiping only One Creator. Thats why you can feel that many religions re kinda the same. Cuz, their original teachings used to be from the same One Creator. But as their prophets/messengers passed away, their people often changed the messages. Like, some of them even raised the prophets and messengers as god(s) (thats how various religions all over the world were made by people from these corrupted messages). The Creator didnt preserve these messages, because there would be another prophets after them who would be given another revelation and additional message (progressive revelation). Until the last prophet who is the prophet muhammad. He is the last prophet and the seal of the propheth ood era Like, there will not be new chosen prophet after muhammad as the message is now completed. Well, many muslims believe some prophets re still alive like Jesus (who will come again for different mission. We muslims believe Jesus as the prophet, not god). But again, not new chosen prophet to refresh the message after prophet muhammad. So, since there wont be another prophet. The message has to be preserved for the rest of humanity, right? Thats why the quran has been preserved. This over 1400 years old book has been memorized by millions of muslims all over the world in its original language arabic. Thats how the quran is preserved. Unlike any other book that we cant even find it in its original language (Jesus was speaking aramaic). So, when somebody tried to changed the quran, we muslims will find out the error soon enough. Because, many of us has memorized the whole quran. Oh, one thing i always wonder. Why many christians and ex christians only aware about hell? I dont get it. The bible is barely describing what hell truly looks like. Shouldnt you be worried that you re gonna miss the paradise? In islam, we have pretty much the description of how hell is gonna be. But we muslims rather think about the fun part which is the paradise. Its also being described in details. Basically, in islam. Paradise is a place where you can get the fun that you cant have on this world but imagine. So, missing the paradise is like missing the home we meant to be.
@@helenanistavlogs My pleasure. You may get a copy of quran then (you can buy it online, or with any luck you can get a free copy from local mosque/masjid. Usually a mosque in western countries offer a free copy of quran, as i heard. Most digital copy is free tho). Peace be upon you :)
My lovely Helena, once again you impress me with your candor and bravery . As a atheist. I appreciate your romantic reality . The only shocking part of your sharing is just how beautifully you do it . Ps. “ reality helmet” Love it .
Wow, to say one is divine. Well, it's close. We are called to participate in the divine, but we aren't God, not divine. Nope. And this is not a virtual reality - one would call it subjectivism.
Helena, I would really like to respond (point by point) to the points you raised here as a Christian, based not on my opinion, or the opinion of others either, but based largely on God's Word, the Bible (John 17:17 Thy Word is Truth, John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. NO ONE comes to the father, but through me (Jesus speaking) Acts 4:12 For there is no other name in heaven given among men by which we must be saved. I know you reject the Bible as being Divinely inspired by God, however, God Himself told us this is the case, and one of you is wrong, and it's NOT God. (2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is inspired by God...) I prefer to discuss it one on one if possible. If you're open to that, then please respond, and let me know HOW you're the most comfortable. This subject matter is incredibly important, and has eternal implications (according to God.) I deeply care about people, and their eternal destinies, and I have a responsibility (as an ambassador of Jesus Christ) to speak the truth in love to people, and I give you my word I will be Biblical, doctrinal, respectful and truthful. I would really like to begin by responding to what you have said here privately; what do you say? In the end, it ultimately comes down to your source of "truth". Mine is God Himself, His character, Jesus' sacrificial death, burial and resurrection. I'm willing to stake my own eternity on HIM. Let God be true, and all men are liars, and we have a common enemy (Satan), who currently has deceived your mind. My objective is to free you from his bondage, using the sword of truth to cut through his lies and deception. God did not leave us without the truth Helena, but you have rejected it. It doesn't alter it however, truth is objectively true, whether you believe it or not. Hell is real, but so is heaven. We can be there together, but I need you to be present, and engaged, and open.
Platanus Orientalis, my best polen not friendly vegetal friend. Keep away from it. After many years, I feel far better with no religion at all, being said with all due respect.
Helena Nista you are so beautiful and sweet that everyone Will fall in love with you and explain is to much good in your video and your beautiful face makes more interesting in your video love you helana
My Dear....the thing is...you missed something. Jesus said he is the Truth. And he rose from the dead...so he has been there and back...validating all of what he did...and who he is. You must know there is a right and a wrong....you have been hurt....you have the need and desire or justice. And there will be...God is just. Jesus is the miracle or miracles....because is God...and Man. He represents humanity to God....and God to humanity. There is so very much more. But there is a truth. Think about it...you said no one knows the truth....well....how do you know that is true? Dear one...Jesus rose from the dead. All of life comes down to what we do with him...because someday he will do something with every one of us. He has come to save today....then He will be judge. Please consider Him.❣️
Unfortunately, you've missed the point of my video. Everything that you write about is what YOU believe in. You have the right to do that and I won't tell you to stop. So how about you offer me the same courtesy? 😉
@@helenanistavlogs ...I cannot make or force you to believe...nor would I want to...that would be gross actually. You are essentially saying you don't know if there is a truth...and you said if someone says they know it ...they are full of it (i am paraphrasing). I am just saying from experience and a gracious eye opening I have been given...not earned...that Jesus is true. You admit he is a historical character. But I would ask you to look a bit deeper...think a bit deeper. In fact...ask Him...to reveal Himself to you. I guess the question I will leave you with at the moment is this....and please answer honestly.....If Jesus was in fact God in human flesh....If he in fact did rise from the dead....would you actually WANT to know...? And if you found it to be true...how would affect you? ❣️
No I don't think so I go to church Wednesday night service my girlfriend goes every Sunday she goes with me on Wednesday night I have to work 7 days a week don't like working on Sundays have to do what have to do..
How are you spending your Easter this year?? 😃💖
I washed my car, visited my sister and nephews on the Gold Coast, probably mow the lawn and drink coffee

Happy Resurrection Day Helena!!
You are Spot on! I too was indoctrinated in Catholicism. Later in life, I questioned these same things you are speaking of. I became quite upset, stomping my feet, and demanded I know the truth! What resulted was a very in-depth study of the original languages of Hebrew and Greek. My finding is almost exactly as you said. Those who translated the original words, did so in order to control the masses. I found The Original message to say that there will be a short time period of correction for most of humanity, at the conclusion of which, All who ever lived Will be reconciled back to God. So, your intuition, is nearly perfectly in line with what I found is actually written in the Original form. With all of this in mind, even if I do not meet you in this life, we surely shall meet in the next 😊❤️
I have so much more good news words to offer on this ❤️
Thank you for Your thoughts this morning, and Gods blessings to You 😊

Oh wow, how interesting! 😃💕 A lot of synchronicity here... 😉🔥
@@helenanistavlogs
The Love of God toward us all, is Deeper and more beautiful than Any of us could possibly imagine. Even towards the worst of us. And after He is finished correcting us, (according to what is written) He will change us all by means of purification, so that even the worst of the worst, will become better than the Best person was while in the flesh 😊😊😊❤️

I would like to have someone like you by my side, to have real conversations with, to help through the extremely difficult times ahead of us. I will be her hero, pleasing, protecting, defending, and providing for her.

Helena,
I can’t believe how close your belief system is to mine. I’m the sort of person that find sign posts where someone of a spiritual nature says something to me. And then go and investigate it to work out weather its right for me. I try and follow my instincts as well.
Oh wow, good on you! 😃💕
Helena,
I want to thank you for giving us this window into your spiritual convictions. It takes a good amount of thick skin to put yourself out there in that way.
I have to apologize on behalf of my _ostensible_ fellow believers who have sent you hate simply because they disagree with you. I don't think Jesus taught us to hate anyone.
But then again, there are hypocrites even among atheists. Some of the most judgmental people I know are card-carrying skeptics and agnostics.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support! 🥰🥰
I n 2023, I was brought into the hospital in the am, and expected to be dead by nightfall. The die was cast. First time I ever spoke to Jesus. He gave me a medical miracle and no doctor could explain why, but every one of them was shocked. The last doctor said, “only God knows.” And that is the answer. I’m fine today. Another miracle. Thank you Jesus. I asked and he granted my request. It’s not a coincidence. A miracle is an event for which there is no explanation. I didn’t even get theoretical possibilities from doctors. . And now Doll, I get to watch you and celebrate your birthday ❤ Again, thank you Jesus for your mercy and love. The spiritual realm is real. It is the world behind the world and it’s power, both positive and negative are manifested in this worldly dimension. When you open your heart and mind, spirits may reveal themselves. I am testament to a true miracle. why me?, I don’t know, but I’ll keep asking until I get an answer. Until then, I’ll just continue to express my gratitude and search for a birthday gift.
I'm so happy to hear that you received such an amazing miracle! 😍
@@helenanistavlogs I got exactly what I asked for which was contrary to all medical expectations. Jesus was showing off.😊 Now that I know he’s listening, I talk to him regularly. He reeled me right in. It’s a very strange experience talking to doctors who expected you to be already dead and are both surprised and confused as to why you’re not. Doll, you’re in my prayers.
Hi Helena... As the topic is about religion, spirituality & stuffs. I just wanted to share some excerpts / thoughts.
Kama/Kaama(lust) is the root of the world's existence. All that is born originates from Kama,
it is by Kama also that primordial matter and all beings eventually dissolve away.
Without [passion of] Lord Shiva and Goddess Shakti, creation would be nothing but a figment,
nothing from birth to death occurs without activation of Kama.
Shiva is manifest as the great linga, Shakti essential form is the YONI.
By their interaction, the entire world comes into being; this is called the activity of Kama.
Erstwhile known as Avatara....
So again just ignore your haters... You are wonderful and doing a great job and you are very inspiring as well.. Kudos to you 😊 and keep up up the good work 👍 Also eagerly waiting for your next video. 😃
Either on this channel or the other channel of yours 😊
Take care 😊👍
Thank you, you too! 😊
I'm actually of Polish Decent my grandparents were of the German minority in Poland so I grew up in a religious and I still observe some aspects of Christianity in my life and visit Poland when ever I can .
That's amazing, I didn't know that! 😃💕
I believe spirituality is something personal, n i don't believe man made theories and traditional things about Christianity . But i still believe God exist.
I support you Miss Helena. N religion is something personal so everyone to his own..
Yes, absolutely! 🥰🥰
When you say no one knows the truth, that's a philosophical position. As you know, in Christianity, the truth is a Person.
Second, one has to be careful with the idea "I am my own god." That was the temptation offered to Eve and Adam - you will be as gods. And it didn't work out that way, it was a lie.
I like your thoughts on this. I know this was from a few months ago and I was scrolling through your vlogs. I go to a church however it is nondenominational and we accept all points of views from every belief system but do not indoctrinate any one belief. We are fond of saying we are spiritual beings having a human experience. I was brought up in the Baptist religion. And every thing you thought was going to lead you to Hell. Well you sure were not going to leave the church happy if you were going to Hell for every thought you had or if you drink a beer or other adult beverage or if you dressed a certain way.. So for years I stayed away from church. I have found the place I go to now through family that felt the same way I did. And the church I go to does not believe in Hell or really even sin for that matter.. They say all that so called sin is is merely missing the mark. And God. Jesus, Divine Spirit or what ever you want to call your higher power offers you infinite second chances. You may even call it The Universe as some of us do. Anyway I just wanted to comment and tell you that you are inspirational to a lot of people and thank you for being who you are...... Namaste 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm eternally fascinated with other people's experiences because I will never be able to live it all myself. I love your share and I love it that you found a church that works for you and supports you in living your best life 🥰
My life is probably not going to be the way i want it.
And maybe it will.... 😉
Well, you have the courage of your beliefs. But one can try something, and decide it was off. There is no greater joy, if that is what you're after, than participation in the reality of God.
😍😍😍
💕
Nice
Thanks!
GLAD YOUR CATHOILC TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Used to be... 😉
#1) Open your heart and your mind to your angels and they will reveal themselves to you. We all have them and they know why you’re here. #2) Be kind. Do 1&2 and your life will be rewarded. Ours is the toughest physical experience of all worlds and we chose to be here to learn whatever it is we needed to learn. Choosing this physical experience twice is apparently unusual. Heaven and Hell, demons and angels are right here in this physical experience with us. There is more here than meets the eye. The minds eye can see much when opened. You are such a beautiful soul Helena. So easy to love. So many if your videos are a door into who you really are. Just beautiful and lovable all the way through.😘The meaning of life is to love and be kind in a place when it is difficult. This world is the toughest. People like you will make me want to return again. So easy to love you are.
Thank you so much! You're incredibly sweet 😍
@@helenanistavlogs Nah, I just might like you a little.but a little goes a long way.😘
Rosie, your cat, has pondered deeply over these same topics, and has concluded that very often "Religious Obsession Suppresses Independent Experience". 🐥 Happy Easter.

Thank you and same to you, Daniel! 🥰🥰
Hi Helena,
Well said no matter your religion believes it’s not up anyone to change your mind.
Yes, absolutely! 😍💖
I feel for you with the allergies. I had five years of allergy shots and I still have to use Claratrin D and Flonaise everyday or else I can't function.
Awww, I'm sorry to hear that, Michael! 💕
Happy Easter 💚
Same to you! 💕
Happy Easter!
Same to you!
It was courageous to state your philosophy of life, since it invites comments. Just a few. First, the Bible is not edited. There have been archaeological discoveries, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, which are evidence that it's not edited. And it doesn't make sense that it would be edited - the Israelites see this book as the Word of God which they have to follow to survive, they would not edit it.
In regard to priests, one asks the question, Did God become man, or appear to man, and tell us something? If not, it's all opinion, but if so, then we do have access to the truth.
❤🙏😊
🥰🥰
This is really insightful, Helena 😊 Thanks a lot for this video... Ignore the haters... Your videos are always amazing.. Kudos to you 👍 Get Well Soon and Take Care of your health 👍
Thanks a lot! 😃💖
Oh Helena,
Your personal vlogs are such a joy as I recover from the flu!
What you say is so wise.
The bible is not a book. It's a compilation of books, written in different registers of language. From story telling in visual imagery, to 'history' (in the non-narrative sense of the Ancient World) to personal remembrances of Jesus's life to the poetry of the Psalms.
Jesus had very little to say about sex, at least as interpreted by fundamental Christians ('yet ye without sin be the first to cast the stone'; allowing his feet to be washed (in view of the cultural traditions of the time); dining with tax collectors and prostitutes). And A LOT more to say about how we should relate to each other. And humility. (Many will open up a theological debate about this that I have no desire to engage in. I am not a theologian. But remember the Gospel of John before the critics throw the brickbats - Jesus desired a relationship of friendship with, not mastery of, us.)
I have come to the realisation that there is nothing wrong in healthily inhabiting sexuality. It's natural and very good.
There is a space for tradition and teaching. The 'Magisterium', to which you allude. But the Church is run by human beings, with all their flaws and egos and problems. As have been so vividly demonstrated throughout all history including recent history.
A Cistercian monk, Thomas Merton, said of Thich Nhat Hanh, 'I have much more in common with him than many people of my country, and religion, as we see things exactly the same way.' There is a common core of human wisdom in many faith traditions that speaks to what a good life well lived is. And it doesn't lie in unquestioning fidelity to the Bishop of Rome. But it does lie in respect and love for each other and a belief that life is not without meaning (not nihilistic, in other words), but is made beautiful by ethics and respect for each other. Whether that lies in belief in a divine power or simply a unifying principle of the Universe. It is not about punishment of sin, but growing in behaving skilfully towards each other, without ignorance. I have found Thay (Thich Nhat Hanh) to have the most useful things to say to me, but Buddhism is cast in 'teaching precepts', not 'sin' ...
I am sorry you have had negative feedback from fundamentalists. There is nothing poisonous in what you bring in your other channel. It is, indeed, very beautiful. As are you. (And I don't mean that in a self-evident physical sense ... .)
I have been plagued with Catholic guilt about sexuality all my life until a few years ago. I finally met the person who has allowed me to know there is nothing shameful in what we share together - in heart, mind, body and soul (despite not being married and not wishing for children). And my wish to give her pleasure so exceeds my wish to take pleasure for myself ☺... And your other channel allows me to explore some understandings and techniques to bring her new surprises! For which, thank you ...
A.
Awww, thank you for sharing all these insights and wisdom 🥰
Helena WOW! Your very open minded towards religion and your out look on this topic is awesome. With yiu I guess do what works for you and makes you happy. I believe humans need something to believe in and worship and we have since the beginning of time. It's our human nature to have something to believe in. Have a great Easter. 👏👏👏👏👍👍❤️💗💕😎
Thanks a lot for sharing this, Mark! And yes, so many people need someone else to tell them how to live and what to do... I'm not one of them 😉
Tę sukienkę pamiętam z mojego pobytu w Sidney

That R you nailed it. They can R anything in a book. Just because you don,t go to church dosen,t make you a bad person. And sex and religion don,t have anything to do with each other. Happy Easter. Be your own person not what someone wants you to be.
Awwww, thank you so much, Ron! 😃💖
Love you @Helena Nista
Aww... 🥰🥰🥰
You remind me of Bart Ehrman in a way. He was brought up a Fundamentalist, and when he realized that Bible all be read literally as the Fundamentalists hold, he dropped everything and became an agnostic. You were raised Catholic, with deprivation in the society, and you seem to have thrown it all over in your life. Well, that takes courage. And perhaps trying something can show if it's a good idea or not.

My views on the Bible, Jesus and religions would probably shock you, pretty dress Helena
Maybe. But more likely they wouldn't... 😉
For me I practice the traditional Nordic faith and follow the Norse gods such as Odin and Thor . I think Scandinavia belongs to the Nordic people and the Nordic faith .
I love that! A part of me wishes that I grew up with the Nordic faith and gods... 😍💕
Wprawdzie nie rozumiem, ale i tak się nie do końca zgadzam🧐🤔
Ok... 😉
Nailed it! If Yeshua came back he would say ‘Guys this isn’t what I meant.’….🤣The more I learn the less I know in this life! We have been soooo scammed 🙀

@@helenanistavlogs Thank you for your insightful vids! I just found you today. I am just learning to raise kundalini thingy 🥴 Do you have info on g-spot? Husband and I learned that years ago. Does that connect with kundalini? I have questions 🤷🏻♀️💜🇨🇦🤣
@@carfast3 Yes, I do have a video on the G-spot, it's here: ua-cam.com/video/itvauMjharw/v-deo.html 😉
@@carfast3 And the G-Spot isn't linked to raising the Kundalini energy. In order to raise it, you'll need to work with your chakras and with channeling your energy up through them 🥰
Thank you ☺️ I am going to show my husband your spit or swallow video 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hahaha, your hands move like a real Italian already! Religion always hard topic. I believe that if you think something it will happen except the jackpot or lotery. Some call it the secret, I call it the Force. It's energy. Meaning of life: enjoy as much as you can and be nice to others. Kisses 😘😘😘💋💋💋
Thanks a lot, Mike! 🥰💕
Jesus all the way
Man or woman are not perfect
Jesus words are clear
I was born into catholic
No longer a catholic
Trust in god and surrender to Jesus and have a relationship 😘
Religion and liquor should be taken in moderation. If you overdose the results could be disastrous.
Your choice of religion should be as personal as your choice of undergarments!
Yes, absolutely! 😃🔥
It’s this time I’ve been for a shit my usual time and i could not piss and I’m so pissed off about that.
Maybe talk to your GP about that!
I Believe the Popes had a lot to do with all the bible changes And sometimes set the bar to high for themselves But the good books are guide lines for how one should be in an IDEAL situation And its good to have guidelines Your courses are guidelines for a more spiritual and healthful relationship thats why im watching you (well not the only reason) Its just like the guy running the hot dog stand A person trying to loose weight orders three Kosher jumbo dogs with chili sour cream cheese and coleslaw and a Diet coke whats the diet coke for thats not going to erase the sin so if you sin (so to speak) do it right have the dogs with the regular better tasting coke unless you like the tast of diet coke (who does) your paying the price anyway Thats my view 😶
Thanks for sharing that! You've got a point... 😉
Yep, the thing is. No churches align with the real teaching of Jesus. As you mentioned, "how these teachings were interpreted".
Now then, since im a muslim: have you read the quran?
Like, do you have a copy of the quran? (you can get one for free if you dont have one tho)
Actually, when you mentioned "bible has been highly edited". I really hope that you actually have truly read the whole bible yourself. Not getting this information from non christian sources, like atheist chan.
So, when you read the quran, you can notice the different between the two and you can be fair to yourself.
And i really hope that you dont have too much prejudice when reading the quran. As you ve mentioned "indoctrinate you in an exactly same way".
I can assure you that the quran and islam is pretty much having different core teaching than christianity (catholic, protestant, lutheran, orthodox, those are christianity).
Just be open minded (well, be more open minded for your case. As it seems you re pretty open minded enough already).
Regarding many religions tho.
In islam we believe that The Creator has sent so many prophets and messengers all over the world in the past since adam (adam is one of the prophets. The first prophet). We call it the age of prophet hood.
These prophets and messengers were given the revelation from The Creator.
Often, different people/tribes would be given some different revelations. Because people werent connected.
However, the main message was always the same: worshiping only One Creator.
Thats why you can feel that many religions re kinda the same. Cuz, their original teachings used to be from the same One Creator.
But as their prophets/messengers passed away, their people often changed the messages. Like, some of them even raised the prophets and messengers as god(s)
(thats how various religions all over the world were made by people from these corrupted messages).
The Creator didnt preserve these messages, because there would be another prophets after them who would be given another revelation and additional message (progressive revelation).
Until the last prophet who is the prophet muhammad. He is the last prophet and the seal of the propheth ood era
Like, there will not be new chosen prophet after muhammad as the message is now completed.
Well, many muslims believe some prophets re still alive like Jesus (who will come again for different mission. We muslims believe Jesus as the prophet, not god).
But again, not new chosen prophet to refresh the message after prophet muhammad.
So, since there wont be another prophet. The message has to be preserved for the rest of humanity, right?
Thats why the quran has been preserved.
This over 1400 years old book has been memorized by millions of muslims all over the world in its original language arabic.
Thats how the quran is preserved. Unlike any other book that we cant even find it in its original language (Jesus was speaking aramaic).
So, when somebody tried to changed the quran, we muslims will find out the error soon enough. Because, many of us has memorized the whole quran.
Oh, one thing i always wonder. Why many christians and ex christians only aware about hell?
I dont get it. The bible is barely describing what hell truly looks like.
Shouldnt you be worried that you re gonna miss the paradise?
In islam, we have pretty much the description of how hell is gonna be.
But we muslims rather think about the fun part which is the paradise. Its also being described in details.
Basically, in islam. Paradise is a place where you can get the fun that you cant have on this world but imagine.
So, missing the paradise is like missing the home we meant to be.
Thank you so much for sharing this! And no, I haven't read the quran 😊💕
@@helenanistavlogs My pleasure.
You may get a copy of quran then (you can buy it online, or with any luck you can get a free copy from local mosque/masjid. Usually a mosque in western countries offer a free copy of quran, as i heard. Most digital copy is free tho).
Peace be upon you :)
My lovely Helena, once again you impress me with your candor and bravery . As a atheist. I appreciate your romantic reality . The only shocking part of your sharing is just how beautifully you do it . Ps. “ reality helmet” Love it .
Haha! Thank you, Eric... 🥰
Helena has found her Hindu roots
I don't have Hindu roots, Albert. This is my SPIRITUALITY 🥰
Wow, to say one is divine. Well, it's close. We are called to participate in the divine, but we aren't God, not divine. Nope. And this is not a virtual reality - one would call it subjectivism.

Lol l look forward to Easter. I eat about ten bags of jelly beans and then don,t have them for a year.
Enjoy! 🥰💖
I hate my life endless much.
Happy Easter! 💕
Happy Easter too.
Helena,
I would really like to respond (point by point) to the points you raised here as a Christian, based not on my opinion, or the opinion of others either, but based largely on God's Word, the Bible (John 17:17 Thy Word is Truth, John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. NO ONE comes to the father, but through me (Jesus speaking) Acts 4:12 For there is no other name in heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
I know you reject the Bible as being Divinely inspired by God, however, God Himself told us this is the case, and one of you is wrong, and it's NOT God. (2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is inspired by God...)
I prefer to discuss it one on one if possible. If you're open to that, then please respond, and let me know HOW you're the most comfortable. This subject matter is incredibly important, and has eternal implications (according to God.) I deeply care about people, and their eternal destinies, and I have a responsibility (as an ambassador of Jesus Christ) to speak the truth in love to people, and I give you my word I will be Biblical, doctrinal, respectful and truthful. I would really like to begin by responding to what you have said here privately; what do you say? In the end, it ultimately comes down to your source of "truth". Mine is God Himself, His character, Jesus' sacrificial death, burial and resurrection. I'm willing to stake my own eternity on HIM. Let God be true, and all men are liars, and we have a common enemy (Satan), who currently has deceived your mind. My objective is to free you from his bondage, using the sword of truth to cut through his lies and deception. God did not leave us without the truth Helena, but you have rejected it. It doesn't alter it however, truth is objectively true, whether you believe it or not. Hell is real, but so is heaven. We can be there together, but I need you to be present, and engaged, and open.
God told me that you're mistaken. And only one of you is wrong - and it's not God... 😉
Platanus Orientalis, my best polen not friendly vegetal friend. Keep away from it.
After many years, I feel far better with no religion at all, being said with all due respect.
I see! Thanks for sharing 🥰💕
Helena Nista you are so beautiful and sweet that everyone Will fall in love with you and explain is to much good in your video and your beautiful face makes more interesting in your video love you helana
Thank you so much 😀
My Dear....the thing is...you missed something. Jesus said he is the Truth. And he rose from the dead...so he has been there and back...validating all of what he did...and who he is.
You must know there is a right and a wrong....you have been hurt....you have the need and desire or justice. And there will be...God is just. Jesus is the miracle or miracles....because is God...and Man. He represents humanity to God....and God to humanity. There is so very much more.
But there is a truth. Think about it...you said no one knows the truth....well....how do you know that is true?
Dear one...Jesus rose from the dead. All of life comes down to what we do with him...because someday he will do something with every one of us.
He has come to save today....then He will be judge. Please consider Him.❣️
Unfortunately, you've missed the point of my video. Everything that you write about is what YOU believe in. You have the right to do that and I won't tell you to stop. So how about you offer me the same courtesy? 😉
@@helenanistavlogs ...I cannot make or force you to believe...nor would I want to...that would be gross actually. You are essentially saying you don't know if there is a truth...and you said if someone says they know it ...they are full of it (i am paraphrasing).
I am just saying from experience and a gracious eye opening I have been given...not earned...that Jesus is true. You admit he is a historical character. But I would ask you to look a bit deeper...think a bit deeper. In fact...ask Him...to reveal Himself to you. I guess the question I will leave you with at the moment is this....and please answer honestly.....If Jesus was in fact God in human flesh....If he in fact did rise from the dead....would you actually WANT to know...? And if you found it to be true...how would affect you? ❣️
I guess she had an unfortunate experience as a young woman. Peope were harsh with her. The Church today would not speak in those terms.
It's called reaction formation.
And that means it's not really a choice. But she has the courage to try out her convictions, to find out if they work or not.
No I don't think so I go to church Wednesday night service my girlfriend goes every Sunday she goes with me on Wednesday night I have to work 7 days a week don't like working on Sundays have to do what have to do..
Enjoy!
