that's funny, I was just thinking... Comparing anything is like comparing apples and orange bowties.
There are no two apples alike, and the marks which distinguish us are not separate from, but are made of the same substance as, the marks that we share in common. For all marks, all appearances, all "things", are not distinct, self-contained entities, with actual and individual existence of their own, but, rather, they blend, openly or subtly, with all other "things". "Things" only have a semblence of reality in the mind. We must learn to see with new eyes; never to miss the natural passages, metamorphoses, and alchemical processes, which are the true essence of that material "stuff", appearing to us in the aspect of infinite particularities; anomolies; "things". We must learn to read "things", as characters in a book. "For all symbols are fluxional; all language is vehicular and transitive, and is good, as ferries and horses are, for conveyance, not as farms and houses are, for homestead." - Emerson (from his essay, "The Poet") "Meaning is not in things, but in between them." - G. B. Shaw ----

Soulsista, The qoute you attributed to me is NOT mine. I would never judge anyone's feelings. I tried to make that clear in my second post. I think it's great that you feel a connection to the Indigo theory. I was voicing concerns with the way the whole Indigo phenomenon is being presented by some web sites. I am not in any way trying to dispute the concept itself, or anyones personal connection to it. At the same time, I think there are many sources of information on the subject that are not responsible. I guess that's just something each individual has to feel out for themselves. There's nothing wrong with feeling a connection to a certain group of people, jsut as there is nothing wrong with feeling NO connection to some people. Its all about how the connection or nonconnection is then handled, in my opinion. I'm on a spiritual journey just like most people drawn to this site, and while I have found many answers that resonate for me, i don't expect them to resonate for everybody. And i could fill a book with all of my shortcomings and stumbles along the way!! (case in point, i have a fondness for horrible foul words and strong dislike for conservative politicians). I hope you find whatever brings you comfort.Fayte, Thanks for the kind words earlier in the thread IP: Logged |

The stuff from that initial article listed in this thread resonates, but in a different way than the writer's. I think I'm less of a cynic.IP: Logged |

I just perused the sunfell link. My only reaction is !! Makes me wonder how on earth I survived childhood. If I were born in today's world, I'm pretty sure I would've been diagnosed with the Asperger's form of Autism. It's funny they use the term "stripped naked" to describe the sensitivity of indigo's/crystals. Those are the exact words I use to describe how vulnerable and weird I felt as a child. Stripped bare with a giant, screaming spotlight on me. A spotlight that told me more than I ever wanted to know at such a young age. Thank you for posting the link to that site! Lots of Love, KristaIP: Logged |

Indigo.... A true Indigo would never in my opinion resort to violence. I do not like the trying to mix psychopathic bad kids with true Indigoes. That is utter bullcrap!

I can relate to a lot of the Indigo stuff. I have Dyslexia,Dyspraxia,and AD/HD, but I don't consider myself an Indigo. Dyslexia,Dyspraxia,and AD/HD have their strengths too,but people tend only see only the disorder stuff about them. I think that a lot of my fellow neurodivergents who are highly sensitive and believe in the metaphysical can relate to the Indigo. IP: Logged |

I’m not sure if what I am is Indigo, although that name does resonate with me. I was always able to talk with adults; my mom’s friends use to share their problems with me. I remember sitting in a class room filled with my peers, I must have been about 6 years old. I felt so much older, I use to look at them and think how precious they were and how young. I always knew that I was an observer and not of this Earth, from early on I understood that I was a spiritual being-a child of light. My mother was raised in a convent and was very catholic; she often wonders where I came from? LOL I taught her about the female essence of God and she now questions religious doctrine. She refers to me as her teacher, although I still feel so much the student. I know that I’m an old soul, does that knowledge make me an Indigo? I have no idea.

I personally do not believe in a separate class of being like Crystals and Indigo. It is just a matter of spiritual awareness and transcendence, we are all capable of!IP: Logged |

I feel like this article is describing a certain "sensetive' type of personality that has been around for ages. Some of the descriptions would describe anyone.A lot of people on this board would fit these traits because people of this type would seek out the occult/mystical. I think it is a bit overzealous to label this is its own category, but if it brings people who are suffering some light then it is worth it. I strongly identify with this description and have suffered through a lot of what it has outlined. Some of the specifics line up very well. I was born in December of 81. One issue I take is that it sounds like a form of elitism, which is something I am against. It also seems the author is projecting a lot of his/her qualities onto this category, some of these qualities may not be inherent qualities of inidigo children should such a thing exist. Fayte do you consider yourself an indigo child?
I"m definitely skeptical that this whole indigo thing is just another money making scheme. IP: Logged |

Here is some stuff on the critical side of Indigo. Very interesting stuff. One kid was talking about being an avatar with knowledge earth,air,wind,and fire coming back every 100 years,and that was believed to be some type of special knowledge. It turns out all that stuff is from a cartoon on Nickelodean. http://selectsmart.com/twyman.html
