You Are Very, Very Lucky

The Danish mystic, musician and bestselling author visited Watkins Books in London to speak and answer questions about his apprenticeship with his spiritual teacher, the Seer.

QUESTION: How did you meet the Seer?

LARS MUHL: I met the Seer in 1998 after I was in severe pain and lying in bed most of the time for 3 years. I was kind of crucified by physical, psychological and psychic pain. It felt like an iron bar was running through my upper body. I prayed and tried to argue with God: “Dear God, tell me what I have done wrong and I will make it all good and I will be the best person in the whole wide world”. But it was a one-way communication, there came no answer.

It felt like being at the bottom of a mud hole looking up towards the light and every day I was climbing towards the light and as soon as I was getting a hold to pull me out of the hole I was slipping back to the bottom and I had to wait for the next day or the day after to have the strength to try again.

Suddenly, one day - it was grace, really there was a voice coming from somewhere saying: “If you are lying there, feeling so much pain, why not take upon you the pain of everybody else in the world?” And somehow something in me knew that if I didn’t comply with this I wouldn’t get another chance. And I said “Yes!” and in that exact moment I felt a kind of relief. It was as if I was standing beside my own body lying there and I felt absolutely no pain.

The week after this happened I got in contact with the Seer. At that time I didn’t put two and two together and didn’t realize that these two events were connected. And of course they were. Because I was somehow sending out a signal that now I am ready.
