Stop Fighting It

Stop Fighting It

"When you fight something, you’re tied to it forever.
As long as you’re fighting it, you’re giving it power."

-- Anthony de Mello

"What you resist persists. And only what you look at, and own, can disappear.
You make it disappear by simply changing your mind about it."

-- Neale Donald Walsch

You Can Live Your Truth

You Can Live your truth.

Some things in life, love, work, are perfect?
Some things you desire and need are missing?
You visualise them.
You compromise.

For example - Why does someone take a lover?
There is some unsatisfied need or want.
Perhaps you lack the courage to confront your partner to try to improve things?
Perhaps you have discussed the shortfalls and nothing changed, and nothing will change?
Perhaps you know from experience that saying what you really want will make matters worse for you?

So you take a secret lover.
That can satisfy body, and perhaps soul too, but you are not living your truth.
You are living a lie. This also feels wrong and out of balance.
It is the comfort zone of discomfort.
You live two lives.

It is often said that what you visualise is what you get in life.
Is it your time to leave the lie behind and live an open honest truth?

Human beings are no longer accepting secrets and deception.
Look at Wikileaks. Their purpose: We are of assistance to peoples of all countries who wish to reveal unethical behaviour in their governments and institutions.
The public are ready for this. The corrupt governments and institutions are fighting to protect their unethical ways.

So it is with individuals. It is time to be transparent and honest, or to work towards it.
Caution - If all became transparent overnight there would be chaos.

Visualise the truth that you want to live, in openness and honesty, and make the necessary moves to live that truth and to be that truth. Do it in a way not to hurt others. If it means moving on from an unsatisfying relationship, the act of moving on is not hurting the other. It is a necessary adjustment. Be as kind as possible to the partner in any move to find your right balance and to find your truth.

Imagine a world with no lies, no anger, no jealousy, and no deception. Visualise it. It will come.

THE BURDEN OF INDECISION

THE BURDEN OF INDECISION

Many difficult decisions in life sit in the mind under constant internal discussion.
Do it? Don’t do it? Do it this way? Do it that way?

Of course the possibilities and consequences must be considered. It can be good to write down the arguments in favour and against. That focuses the mind.

Indecision is a heavy burden, and you feel it dragging you down. You are stuck at the crossroads. You are not going with the flow. You have stopped.

How many times have you seen someone who has made a major decision saying, “I am so glad that I ………….”

They are light again, going with the flow, and happy, often giving up much security in life, for the path of freedom to be themselves, to do what they want or need to do, to leave a person who drags them down, or to be with a person they want to be with.

They become free of the heavy burden of indecision.

Is it time to make that important decision and become light again? Is it time to leave your load at the crossroads and move along whichever path you will choose?

What better time than at the end of a year to close some doors, and the beginning of the New Year to start afresh.

It is better to try and to fail, than never to try at all.

THE IMPORTANCE OF “ME” TIME

THE IMPORTANCE OF “ME” TIME

Did you ever see something in a shop, want it, and for whatever reason, not buy it? : Perhaps a book, a pair of shoes, or whatever. You felt that you could not spare the money that day, or were just indecisive.

When you arrived home you regretted the decision or the indecision. Next time you passed the shop, went in, and what you wanted was no longer there.

Did you ever not do something because “I am too busy”, like doing yoga, meditating, attending an important event or reading a special book?

You know that “I am too busy” is really an excuse. You can find time in the busiest day for a few minutes of silence to connect with the “inner You”, your higher self. We can all be more time efficient if we decide to be.

The three most important things in life according to Prahbu Darmayasa, Balinese spiritual leader, and co-founder of the Divine Love Society, are:

Health
Peace of Mind
Divine Love

He says that we ignore these “diamonds”.

It may not be your style but sometimes even the most “giving” person must put himself first. Make some “ME” time a priority, even five minutes a day, to be quiet and to look within, to listen.

If you only give, and never take for yourself, your life is out of balance. We all need balance.

Never again miss the rare opportunity to get what YOU need or want when you see it. It may never be offered again.

If it is important you, for once, put “ME” ahead of worrying that “But I should stay home to be with my partner today” or “I should not spend this money”, or “I don’t have time”.

These common thoughts / phrases will lead to lifelong regret of missed opportunity, and leave you out of balance and harmony.

ME time is your gift to your self to nurture your soul.

Follow that Unique path - Your path.

SPIRITUALITY – LOOK WITHIN

SPIRITUALITY – LOOK WITHIN

We live pressured lives, in unstable, unpredictable times. People carry more and more stress. There is no time to enjoy the essence of life.

We forget that the material things, which we work so hard for, do not make us happy in the long term, even if we feel rewarded by our efforts to achieve them, and in the pleasure of first ownership.

How do we find happiness? How do we speak the language of peace and love in a world where electronic communication has become so available?

Our minds are bound by prejudices and negative feelings. Where is a source of energy from which to take power from to cope with increasing demands?

It is time to look within our selves. The little voice within asks: Who Am I? What is my purpose on earth? How can the world become a better place? Why do some suffer more than others? Is there a God or a greater Force?

The answers lie in Spirituality – the key to recover and take control of our lives and to find peace, purity and love and the power to face challenges.

Peace brings equilibrium to the mind and allows it to flow with situations, not to fight them. We can recharge the batteries, the very Soul, the subtle invisible part of us, the spark, the life force which animates our bodies.

Within the soul lies peace, love, happiness, power and goodness, our essential qualities. We find these when we connect to our soul, and are then free to send these energies and qualities out into the world by our thoughts, words and actions.

When we connect internally with our soul we gain heightened perception and see people and situations as they really are. At this level we are no longer limited by culture, language, race and religion. We are all one. We are souls of one human family.

We can make this inward journey by experiencing quiet moments, being alone, being in nature and by regular meditation. We can empty the mind of the stresses and expectations of material happiness which society feeds to us, and bask in the natural treasures which we all have inside, the natural flow of love, happiness, peace and fortune. Reflect and find the answers within and allow the pure spiritual energy to recharge us.

Creating Our Galaxy to Support our Intentions

Energy Update: Intensifying the Shift to Crystalline
Creating Our Galaxy to Support our Intentions
This is so interesting that I share the original text with you.

Has it occurred to you, in your glorious I AM-ness, that YOU and I are collectively creating our own galaxy to support our intentions?
And that if you have felt spacey, weird, overwhelmed energetically, tired, nauseated, ears ringing, unable to focus it might be for a very concrete reason, which actually was drawn into your experience as a manifestation of your, or shall i say, OUR collective desires to expand our consciousness and elevate our frequency?
Let me explain...
The other day I received an email from a reader who shared with me the link to the a video from NASA. I took this screen shot of the video which can be seen in it's entirety HERE. It’s a beautiful image, and a beautiful experience--to see this structure in our galaxy. To understand more of what we are part of by being given the gift of a visual image of it.
Even more amazing was my response to watching this video! My crown chakra opened wide and I felt highly emotional. My heart chakra spread out across my chest and felt tender and spacious.
Rather then being stimulated mentally or curious, I had an emotional and energetic response of knowing. Knowing what? I’m not sure. But definitely, knowing.
I knew that what I was looking at was important and significant. A way perhaps to understand the incredibly deep and wide energies since that followed the 10-10-10 Stargate and which were more integrated and thus further supported and expanded with the shared focus and experience of 11-11-10.
I then went to channel and gather more understanding. I asked: What is this structure of enormous gamma ray emitting lobes, that the NASA's Fermi Telescope Finds reveals are in our Galaxy? What is the relevance or meaning of this for me and others exploring the expansion of consciousness? Here is what I received from Archangel Michael and Naeshira:
Enormous waves of high frequency light enter the Earth’s atmosphere. Interacting with lower vibrating waves to form higher frequency gamma rays. Gamma rays are typically thought of as destructive to living cells; however gamma rays with their high frequency/short wavelength are unusually compatible with crystal, (as opposed to carbon structures). Thus, they are highly effective at bringing high-frequency energies into your experience in a new way.
Radiation from gamma rays in your atmosphere is increasing in a parallel movement as your cells becoming increasingly converted from carbon to crystalline in structure. This allows for vast quantities of high-frequency energy to permeate and elevate the overall collective energy field of Earth plane.
As I contemplated this information from Michael and Naeshira, I wanted to understand more.
It’s interesting that gamma waves were thought before to only reside BEYOND the milky way. That gamma waves traveled vast distances to our atmosphere. Why would there now be, or would we now "discover" the presence of these waves radiating into our atmosphere from the our galaxy?
The structures in the video are being described by scientists as “two lobes” above and below our galaxy’s center. Isn’t it interesting that they also resemble the form of a mobius wave, the symbol also used to convey infinity?
I discovered that the scientists have never seen exactly this kind of a formation. They have nothing that explains how these highly charged electrons "got here."
Furthermore, scientists felt like these gamma rays are full of information and they don't have a context to put it in. How cool that these scientists are able to say, A) it's amazing and B) we don't know what it is and what's involved with it!
I kept asking to be guided and as I was, a constellation of relevant information to make more meaning of all this came forth.
First I learned that gamma rays are measured often (in controlled scientific environments, naturally) by creating them and directing them toward crystals. The electrons within the crystals are "contained" as so absorb the information from the gamma rays and then reflect the energy of the gamma ray's intensity as light. How poetic and amazing!
Naturally as our bodies are increase in crystalline structure we would receive gamma ray information differently and potentially be able to handle greater amounts of information transmitted this way. Thus wouldn't it be useful to increase the amount of this energy coming to us?
I remembered learning about Subtle Energy Fields--which surround human bodies. That through these fields we are connected and in communication to the Universal Field, the Great Central Sun.
Then I started thinking about intentions. And where intentions and this Unified Field meet.
The interconnectivity of fields and intentions is a convergence of subtle energy theory and quantum physics.
We’re all connected in a non-local reality. Through intention our personal field can interact with someone else’s field and instantly transfer information. And/or transfer and receive information from the field as a whole.
Considering the timing of this "discovery" by NASA.
Factoring in the concept that those individuals with higher frequency perspectives have vast influence energetically...and that many of those beings are currently focused on "ascension" or expanding consciousness and elevating their baseline frequency.
Isn't it possible that WE created this structure within our galaxy, in order to receive the light = information we need to accomplish our intentions?
It's pretty cool.
Then if we remember the work of Nikola Tesla, which suggests that the gamma rays found on earth emanate from the zero-point field. And if the zero-point field, is sending information heavy rays into our experience...
If we also consider the theory that suggests that through INTENTION we access TORSION FIELDS: fields that travel at 109 times the speed of light—fields which actually transmit INFORMATION without transmitting energy and with NO time lapse.
And if we consider that some physicists believe that torsion-shaped energy is an intelligent light, emanating from higher dimensions and different electromagnetic radiation; giving rise to DNA.
And lastly as we consider that many researchers now believe that these torsion waves ARE consciousness, composing the soul and serving as the precursor to DNA.
Then wouldn't make sense that if we are re-activating our 12 strand DNA, and shifting from carbon to crystalline, that we might create a way to accelerate this by manifesting a beautiful structure in our galaxy to transmit the exact energy into our atmosphere which would support this transformation of ourselves, our civilization, our culture and ultimately our universe?
As Archangel Michael would say: {Smile!}
And I personally find it astonishing poetic that torsion waves, which are flowing to us and indeed create a great deal of our physical symptoms--as our cells "torque" (picture a rubber band and press on it--it twists and becomes? A figure 8.) This image of our cells as they change from carbon to crystaline based, is now mirrored in our galaxy. As above so below.
In our multidimensional experience, beyond time and space, when "events" are simply located in time and space and happen beyond it, isn't it interesting that this "discovery" by NASA was shared on the 10th of November? Actually one day before the New Reality Transmissions began. A discovery which could be seen as a sign of our success, given that one of the suggestions of the New Reality Transmission is to:
“Make pictures in your mind of CNN announcing breaking news of the empirical proof that human consciousness exists outside of the body…scientific validation of the existence of the soul and of the interconnection between all souls.”
As Law of Attraction has taught us; when we open our perception to an idea and begin to pay attention to it, we attract demonstrations of this energy, like experiences, and all kinds of things are drawn toward us which support our movement in this direction.
So I ask you, have you considered that as you approached the 11-11-10 Stargate, embodying an expanded connection to your I AM presence. And some also may have participated in the New Reality Transmissions. And many of us hold the intention to receive the energetic support to ascended to a new baseline 5th dimensional frequency and for us, together to create this New Earth experience...
Has it occurred to you, in your glorious I AM-ness, that we are collectively creating our own galaxy to support our intentions?

A SPIRITUAL CONSPIRACY

A SPIRITUAL CONSPIRACY

On the surface of the world right now there is
war and violence and things seem dark.
But calmly and quietly at the same time,
something else is happening underground.
An inner revolution is taking place,
and certain individuals are being called to a higher light.
It is a silent revolution.
From the inside out. From the ground up.
This is a Global operation.
A Spiritual Conspiracy.
There are sleeper cells in every nation on the planet.
You won't see us on the T.V.
You won't read about us in the newspaper.
You won't hear about us on the radio.
We don't seek any glory.
We don't wear any uniform.
We come in all shapes and sizes, colors and styles.
Most of us work anonymously.
We are quietly working behind the scenes
in every country and culture of the world.
Cities big and small, mountains and valleys,
in farms and villages, tribes and remote islands.
You could pass by one of us on the street
and not even notice.
We go undercover.
We remain behind the scenes.
It is of no concern to us who takes the final credit,
but simply that the work gets done.
Occasionally we spot each other in the street;
we give a quiet nod and continue on our way.
During the day many of us pretend we have normal jobs.
But behind the false storefront at night
is where the real work takes a place.
Some call us the Conscious Army.
We are slowly creating a new world
with the power of our minds and hearts.
We follow, with passion and joy.
Our orders come from the Central Spiritual Intelligence.
We are dropping soft, secret love bombs when no one is looking
Poems ~ Hugs ~ Music ~ Photography ~ Movies ~ Kind words ~
Smiles ~ Meditation and prayer ~ Dance ~ Social activism ~ Websites
Blogs ~ Random acts of kindness...
We each express ourselves in our own unique ways
with our own unique gifts and talents.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
That is the motto that fills our hearts.
We know it is the only way real transformation takes place.
We know that quietly and humbly we have the
power of all the oceans combined.
Our work is slow and meticulous,
like the formation of mountains.
It is not even visible at first glance.
And yet with it entire tectonic plates
shall be moved in the centuries to come.
Love is the new religion of the 21st century.
You don't have to be a highly educated person
or have any exceptional knowledge to understand it.
It comes from the intelligence of the heart,
embedded in the timeless evolutionary pulse of all human beings.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
Nobody else can do it for you.
We are now recruiting.
Perhaps you will join us -
Or already have.
All are welcome
The door is open

THE BALANCE BETWEEN DOING WHAT YOU WANT AND YOUR PARTNER’S FEELINGS

THE BALANCE BETWEEN DOING WHAT YOU WANT
AND YOUR PARTNER’S FEELINGS


You were young, exploring sex, wanting to try something different, but you were afraid to make the suggestion to your partner because you feared a negative reaction. OR You are mature, and are still afraid to ask.

Even you are single, but you don’t take the dance classes you would love to do because you think dance partners will think you unattractive, overweight or incompetent.

“He / she won’t like it if I go away on my own for a yoga retreat, to be with strangers.”

“I have to be home at 1pm to make his salad”. Believe it or not this is a true situation. I know the person. She should teach him how to go to the fridge and prepare a salad!!!

“Tonight is the weekly event of my spiritual group, but my partner suggested that we go out for a pizza, so I had better go for the pizza and miss my “hobby” evening.”

You wanted to go out on Friday, but did not tell you partner, who has now arranged something else for you both.

You want to spend time with someone with similar interests, of the opposite sex.

How many of us live a lie, in one way or another, to make life function?

It is often said that marriage is a compromise, as is any relationship between two people.

The examples above all reflect a number of simple facts.

LOVE. You love your partner so much that you don’t want to upset him / her by saying what you really want. By you being sweetness and light, and not demanding, you think that he / she will love you more.

FEAR. You fear the reaction so that you don’t want to upset him / her by asking what you really want.

Your partner may be the “stuck in his ways” type who will never change.

I am not advocating that where a partnership works, and all is peace and calm, that you suddenly start to create frictions, which you have been carefully avoiding for years.

Your partner may LOVE you so much that he / she would want you to do or have what you want, but if you don’t ask, you are PRESUMING his /her opinion / reaction, and not finding it for real. He / she would actually be upset to think that you did not say and do what you really want.

“He / she will only love me if……………..” is conditional love.

Take time to decide what you really want to do, both for small matters and for important ones. Starting with the small ones, test the water with you partner. “I would really like to do this dear – it will only cost x, or I want to be out on Tuesday evenings for y.” “Does that affect your plans?

What kind of relationship do you have? Can you say, “ I am going to ….on Tuesday so I will be out”, or are the dynamics of the relationship such that you have to seek consent?

Many relationship issues reflect years of at least one partner not saying what he /she wants, just accepting passively what is, and building up frustrations and negative feelings which could have been solved by communicating years ago.

It is not too late to start communication about issues in your mind which remain unspoken, and which you want to bring into the open. You may be pleasantly surprised by the outcome. Or perhaps it will identify that you are living a lie, and perhaps it is time to leave the comfort zone of that lie, and start to live your truth, even if it may mean some initial chaos. What is important to you?

Our spiritual growth and true purpose in life can be more important than the comfort zone lie of a relationship. Let me remind you of some characteristics of the 3rd dimensional mind:

Fear, Anger, Jealousy, Victimhood, Ego, materialism, conditional love, control and living from the brain.

We can aspire to, and live in 5th dimension characteristics:

Peace, Joy, Unconditional love, honesty, openness, allowing, community, sharing and living from the heart. We can be happy for our partner to do what he / she wants to do, when we can aspire to this way of thinking.

We have a right to do what we want where it is with good intention, and without hurting others. Many people are out of balance and either control, or are controlled.

Will you hurt another by saying what you think, or are you challenging the other to change his / her perspective for the better? Do not prejudge this important point. They need the opportunity to learn too.

With better communication, good intention and unconditional love and understanding we will grow as individuals and create a better world.

WE HAVE A CHOICE

WE HAVE A CHOICE

We have a choice. Despite what we have been conditioned to believe.
We can do what we want and be what we want. It is important to believe this.

There is more to life than earning 1000 a month at a JOB – in an office.

There is a world to break out and to enjoy, a world of freedom.

The thought of that natural existence can cause an unsettled feeling, a move from the familiar comfort zone of hopelessness.

“Sometimes I forget that I sit here for money, since I can hardly see any of my salary”.

“Been there, done that - it is a true trap”.

I stepped out of the box, and feel good. Now is different. I am free, but don't have the income either, so I get by with as little expense as possible, but with a few treats.

I am grateful for every blessing I have. Nature is free and to be enjoyed. People are to be enjoyed.

I am thrifty to have enough for the path ahead, travel etc.

I am working towards abundance, but work is not the true path to abundance.
More true is asking the universe to provide and trusting it. Asking for the right reasons.

Total focus on work leaves the spirit unsatisfied, and closed off from it's true environment.

Better to give time and energy to help others and the universe will provide.

No more the ego, I don’t want to be millionaire etc.

Fortune does not matter,
Fame does not matter,
Just the freedom to do what I want, with whom I want, when I want,
With good intention.
There is no more.

Takes the first steps on the path to Freedom.
Visualise what you want.
Be clear what you want.
Have good intention in what you want.
Ask for what you want.
Take responsibility.
Let the energy flow.

WINTER SUN YOGA RETREAT - TENERIFE - 14 to 18 JANUARY 2011

WINTER SUN YOGA RETREAT - TENERIFE - 14 to 18 JANUARY 2011

EMBRACE UNCERTAINTY

EMBRACE UNCERTAINTY

The global economic crisis means for many people challenges and limitations, in financial status, in relationships etc.

The media as always spreads fear as one ego based structure after another collapses, or shakes. Who could predict the fall of Communism, or the collapse of banks and other financial structures? Undoubtedly there will be more challenges, even from natural events like volcanoes, restricting air travel and commerce.

Materialism cannot be sustained, while many global populations starve, and countries and citizens live off debt. Is it so important to have the ego-based trappings of life, a bigger car or a bigger house than the neighbour? People are changing their priorities.

Structures NEED to change. Ego based structures must collapse or adapt to growing consciousness.

These are not dreadful events threatening our long term plans, to hang onto dated systems and ideals.

Opportunities are being presented for us as individuals, and as businesses and governments, to change, to grow in consciousness, and in awareness. We have the choice to embrace these changes and opportunities, or to suffer and live in fear.

Now longer can we plan out the next 20 or 30 years of life. We can instead live for each day in gratitude for the blessings we have, and work towards a better, but different world.

Embrace uncertainty; strive to make the world a better place, to serve others and not to live for greed and power.

Embrace the 5th dimension ideals for a better, and different life for all.

See my 25 April 2010 blog “Living in the 5th Dimension and Releasing the Illusions of the 3rd Dimension”, a channelled message.

Move forward not knowing, embracing uncertainty, with optimism for the better world.

THE MEANING OF LIFE

This short cartoon video sums up so well the meaning of life and what is important.
It is good to remind ourselves.

We should not waste energy on what is unimportant.

MEDITATION AND THE DISTRACTING THOUGHTS

MEDITATION AND THE DISTRACTING THOUGHTS

Is it ok if thoughts distract me in time of meditation? How can I prevent it?

When the mind is quiet, thoughts are most free to surface. That is why many good thoughts and ideas come at 5am. When the mind is busy they cannot get attention.

In meditation, for the majority of people, thoughts will distract you, as will unexpected sounds like music from a neighbour, a cat fight or whatever.

Don't fight them.
Deflect them past you.
Bring back you attention by repeating your mantra and focus on your heart centre or on your 3rd eye chakra.

But sometimes they hold my mind and occupy it, then I can’t get back to mantra and heart....

You can only repeat the manta loudest (internally) to drown out the sound, and feel you eyes looking with eyes closed at the heart centre. But the more energy you put towards the distracting thoughts or sounds, the more they affect you.

Don't make it a fight. Ignore them.

With practice it gets easier. Practice meditation daily even for a few minutes, and at least twice a week make the meditation at least 20 minutes.

An OLD HEAD on a YOUNG BODY

“I know to trust in the outcome, but it's so hard sometimes!! I do not feel 19 years old, I have always been ahead of my peers which confuses my head a lot. I feel that I am almost 'missing out' on being young because I graduated high school early and started my holistic schooling right away. But I know it's what I want to do and what I love.

Again, thank you for your time and listening to me. Those videos were just what I needed.

You'll be in my thoughts and prayers as you leave for your retreat.”

You feel older than your years. That was my experience also.
Like an old head on a young body.
Time has led me to the conclusion that this reflects the accumulated wisdom of past lives. Unlike your school friends, you are wise (in old knowledge) and you are conscious. You need to develop the growing consciousness and awareness, and to let some rub off onto others.
I feel that you have stepped onto the spiritual path of this lifetime with awareness but you are uncertain, as you move along it.
If you can recognise that this is what is happening to you, and seek out the right people, by intention, to meet on the path and to learn lessons from them (they will also learn from you) then you will develop. The universe will put these people in your path.
You just need to make the connection, and if you can, recognise the fact.
They won't all seem helpful, but you will learn from some who engage in confrontation, just as you will learn from some showing loving support and encouragement.
You have a purpose here. Recognise it by seeing what you like to do, and did as a child. Those skills may guide you to your purpose in the scheme of things.
Lastly, for now, don't act old all the time. Seek out the inner child and enjoy playful, childlike activities for your whole life.
Life is meant to be fun, and not serious.

I will think of you too, and please feel free to stay in contact and ask if you need any help, advice or guidance.
We have connected for a purpose.
It may be that the purpose has already been achieved. It may be that the connection will last for years.

MOVING TOWARDS BALANCE

MOVING TOWARDS BALANCE

Visualise your life today. Visualise this parallel with life.

You are on a sailing boat crossing an ocean. Something in life is out of balance. You love life though.

You are sailing a long distance through big waves. It has to be done, but it could be easier. You want to reach the distant calm haven.

To sail through a year you cannot just have the nice days, and fresh air, you have to sail through the big waves (of the office etc.) to reach the end of the year.

At the next port there is the opportunity to reflect and to decide what is important, and what to do next. We all have that choice and there are ways to achieve it.

You will find the way, it is early days. There are thousands of days ahead.

There is no point in putting off to another day our desires and dreams.
Life is NOW not the future.
You can do something different for a different outcome.
Make the necessary changes.

But no point to push things either.
You have gratitude for your many blessings.
You enjoy the presents which each day can bring - without expectations.
Go with flow.

The balance is to go with the flow, while making the changes to achieve the desired outcome. Sail to the safe haven, then when the timing is right, take a new course.

YOU ARE YOUR OWN GURU AND TEACHER

YOU ARE YOUR OWN GURU AND TEACHER

For centuries the wise man, the Guru, the Master, would sit surrounded by followers, disciples. They would remain like this for days, weeks and even years. The Guru would speak words of wisdom, from his own thoughts or to answer questions about all aspects of life.

Others just need occasional guidance on the path.

“It is said that whenever the disciple is ready the master appears. Whenever you are ready the truth will be delivered to you. There is not even a single moment's gap. Whenever you are ready, it happens immediately. There is no time gap.” Osho (20th century mystic).

When the same followers remain at the feet of the Guru, he can rightly say, “you come to me each day and hear my teachings, my words of wisdom. Why are you still here? Did you learn nothing?”

We have what we need inside us, but often need a mirror to see it.

The teacher and Guru is inside all of us, just as a dry seed lives in the land. When we add water to the dry seed it grows. When we activate our spiritual intention and consciousness we start to access the wisdom within.

The mirror can be a wiser, more knowledgeable soul, or can be anyone we interact with where lessons can be learned. We meet the people we need to meet to exercise our karma, or to grow spiritually. We have the choice to learn the lesson at that opportunity, or to ignore it.

We must allocate time to quiet the mind and access our higher self, the true spirit within. Meditation is one way, but a silent walk in nature can be just as effective.

So much lies within, and we need to realise that and explore.

SEXUALITY and SPIRITUALITY part 4

SEXUALITY and SPIRITUALITY part 4

Unsurprisingly SEXUALITY and SPIRITUALITY part 3 motivated a number readers to respond to me.

“Great article, David. Lots of truth here.”

"Yes David! Rockin' article, WOW! I had no idea how like minded we are."

"As a therapist myself, I have found this definitely to be the case. This is NOT an excuse to be promiscuous however. It is a way of discovering the true self within and balancing the three main spheres of our being; mental/emotional, spiritual, and physical."

“I mean...sometimes....many times....people can find the spiritual way as a ...way out. You can do it of course, but in a very evoluted way and how is the percentage of those living the experience like that (evoluted I mean...in nowadays world)? The line which separates healthy" holy" sex from simple fucks is very thin.....and too difficult sometimes to be excused /dismissed as a spiritual way to grow. There should always be a part of decency and morality in it.”

I found an excellent definition of SACRED SEXUALITY, the path of Tantra, on the web:

An exploration of the Human condition
Leads to self discovery
Verifiable through observation and experience
Where integration of body, mind & spirit takes place
Healing on subtle levels can transpire through the cultivation of Prana or Chi
Becomes a path of bliss, affirmation & joy
Awaken/reawaken the sense of your completed, loving, sensual self and share that Divine self with another.

There should of course be decency and morality in it. Is it not more decent and moral to be open about relationships, than the norm of deceit and secrecy? Better to be wishing your partner to enjoy what he or she needs with love and acceptance. If only we can all live in the 5D ways of universal love and consciousness, and without 3D jealousies, anger, and hatred etc.

When that happens the world WILL BE a better place.

I was also asked to be “Agony Aunt”: Good morning and thank you for posting about having a relationship outside your core one.... I didn't know that I would be that other person. Neither one of was married and he met someone and made her his core person, but has kept me as a mistress... I'm just now after 8 months dealing with it and am very sad... He hasn't been honest with either one of us and I'm not sure what to do? She doesn't know anything and that's what is bothering me too? Is it ok for me to ask you what I should do?

This is different, and very 3D. The writer is spiritual and has the unrealistic expectations that the boy friend and new core partner will be also. I advised her to consider that she is being used, and she may prefer to let go of the “security” or comfort zone of the relationship, and to move on to be open to meet a new partner who is also on a spiritual path. Mixed spiritual level relationships can work, each accepting and supporting the other and the differences, or can be a disaster, due to the culturally different ideals.

All of the comments received are helpful and we should consider the theme of part 3 of the blog in the stated context of people coming together for the purpose of each growing spiritually from the experience. Intention is very relevant. If two people come together with the intention of only a sexual relationship, that is outside of the concept under discussion.

Many people like to fit into some model, which they understand and can follow. Marriage is such a model. The new model is not fully shaped. The model of a tribe or community will help some. Here groups of people will bond together to further some common interest(s). Others will relate to the concept of Polyamory, where the two people in a core couple will openly have one or two deep spiritual meaningful relationships of a long term nature running simultaneously with the core couple relationship. More about that model in a future blog.

Of course, the two person model is just fine too, and will remain the majority option to living alone, for some years to come.

Do you make a difference to others?

Do you bring LIGHT, joy and hope to others?

Do you bring consciousness and awareness to others?

You probably do or you would not be reading my Blog.

I posted a really old video to the HOUSE OF LIGHT INTERNATIONAL SPIRITUAL and YOGA COMMUNITY. It inspired Richard in Honolulu, Hawaii to send me a comment:

"This video encapsulates exactly why I was drawn to follow your posts here on Facebook. I help people, and am loved, and yet know deep within myself that I can do so much more than what I accomplish."

I bet many of you feel just the same, almost inadequate for the tasks ahead. Remember though that many drops of water can make a hole in solid rock. Every drop we all make, makes a difference.

"Thanks Richard. I can do anything, but I can't do everything. You too. What you do makes a big difference. Attract others to you to achieve EVEN MORE by many individual efforts."

And thanks for inspiring me, first thing on a Sunday morning, to write this blog to share the message with others.

Don't forget to see the video for yourself, and share the link.



Aloha Richard, Aloha blog readers.

Aloha in the Hawaiian language means affection, love, peace, compassion and mercy. Since the middle of the 19th century, it also has come to be used as an English greeting to say [goodbye] and hello. Currently, it is mostly used in the sense of hello; however, it is used as the above.

It is also the state nickname of Hawaii, the "Aloha State".

Petition against EU ban on alternative medicine

Time and time again it is shown that modern science solutions are not the only ones which work.
Natural solutions work too.
We have a right of choice.
Natural is better than GM
Natural is better than drugs with toxic side effects.
We must not be ruled by giant corporations where profit and greed attempt to obliterate competition and natural choices.

When we first heard about Codex I am sure a lot of people thought it just too unbelievable to be true, but it is really happening, The EU is going to ban natural remedies and supplements.Please sign this petition and send on to family and friends.

The EU has passed a directive that comes into full-force in April 2011: that all herbal and mineral supplements are to be banned, all teaching of alternative healing methods will be banned, and homeopathic colleges dissolved.....etc. As of this summer it is now forbidden to sell books about using plants and minerals.

If you live in Europe or know people/ family in Europe, please help circulate this email, 35 million signatures are needed-NOW!!

SEXUALITY and SPIRITUALITY part 3

SEXUALITY and SPIRITUALITY part 3

Since writing the first two parts on the topic of sexuality and spirituality in June, this topic remains important to many people, and I am often asked about it in my capacity of coach and therapist.

To summarise to date, there are of course those in 3rd dimension reality who manage to have a long or lifetime relationship with one other person, and there are those who fail to do so for various reasons. The main reasons are that expectations are different and they do not communicate their true feelings with each other, and eventually separate for their personal sanity and freedom, or that one cannot accept the need or desire of the other to have relationships outside the marriage of a sexual or non-sexual nature to fulfil something unavailable in the relationship. Essentially they are together though dependence of each other rather than as two independent spirits who do not depend, but enjoy their non dependence as a balanced couple.

The reality is also that 60% or more will have a secret relationship outside the marriage / partnership, not telling the other, but satisfying what they need and cannot get from the core relationship. Very few relationships satisfy all the needs of both partners.

The result is a growing number of people living alone in preference to living an unacceptable compromise.

There are two choices for those with the rising consciousness of 5th Dimension thinking of universal LOVE and compassion, which is beyond anger, jealousy and fear. It is natural and possible to love more than one person, but for many to admit that is a step to the divorce court.

Stay safe and unhappy in a suffocating system, the familiar, the fear, the comfort zone, surrounded by negative energies, and people stuck in their ways, wanting to move on but not doing that, OR
Move into the expanding consciousness WITHOUT THE BRAKES.

Many state that occasional relationships satisfy the body but not the soul. The one-night stand has lost it’s appeal. It is good at the time but not afterwards.
So what is the solution for spiritual souls having natural desires?
Have no expectation and suffer no disappointment. The only expectation is that any relationship should help with the spiritual path of each partner in some way or other.

These new spiritual relationships can be sexual or non-sexual. The relationship will be what people need for their own spiritual expansion.

Synchronistically the Universe will put in my path people who will advance one, or two or more aspects of my spirituality.

Occasionally one meets another and experiences instant chemistry. I believe that this can now be explained as the meeting of two spirits who already had a deep past life (or lives) connection. The 5D couple will continue from where they left off (in spirit) and it is the most amazing deep connection. You will know if you have experienced it. Chemistry is still a good description though.

It is a coming together again to exercise some karma, to learn, or have the opportunity to learn, some lesson. Where there is a spiritual connection, and a sexual attraction, the union can be made in a sacred way advancing the spirituality of both, that is to say like an act of worship acknowledging the Source or Divine, that we are a small part of something great.

I go out and search my dynamic force to experience oneness (not separatedness), to feel whole, fulfilled, in touch with who I am, seeking spiritual partners, of the same vibration, for my own personal development.

With many people still vibrating at 3rd dimension level it is not yet the time for everyone to be open and honest about these spiritual relationships, which are beyond and above state or church based recognition. But soon we will be able to be open and honest about the relationships we need and have. It is a big change from the established pattern of secret infidelities practiced for centuries while at face value those involved were often pillars of the Church and the Community.

Since Facebook many things are public knowledge. Society is moving towards openness and transparency in the same way that our personal relationships will have to move. It can only be for the good.

BE TRUE TO YOURSELF – BE YOURSELF

BE TRUE TO YOURSELF – BE YOURSELF

How often do people try to be someone else? They put on an act, a front, a show. It means one thing – that they are not satisfied or content with who they really are.

Behind that façade lie insecurities, they are inadequate, inferior, will be rejected. Often the act will include excessive boasting about material possessions or the places they travelled to, even inaccurate or misleading descriptions of career and jobs. And about sexual “conquests”, because that may be how they see relationships.

Worse still, there are many people who are impressed by the false images. Just look at the mass of high circulation magazines about people who live false lives – the so called stars and starlets, the “in crowd”, followed by paparazzi, and with every secret of life on public display for money or prestige.

They all carry high expectations, and few will be happy beyond fleeting moments. Expectations lead to disappointments. Money does not make millionaires happy. It does make life easier for those struggling without it of course.

The same traits are seen throughout all stratas of our materialistic society and not confined to the “rich and famous”.

To be false is to carry a burden, a secret guilt, trying to remember at all times the false character so as not to be caught out. Trying to be someone else just reinforces the belief that you are not good enough. It drains energy and serves little purpose.

You will live in dread of being exposed, and being found out as the hypocrite, and fall hard from favour.

We do not succeed in finding happiness as someone else. We are all unique and that uniqueness is what makes us special. Visualise the perfect scenario –“I am happy with who I am, I am content with being who I am, I am grateful for my uniqueness. I am proud to be me. I love myself – for only then call you truly love others”

Real people respect others for being themselves, whether they like them or not. Do not respect false people. They can be so obviously false, that you could laugh at them.

To be real, start by identifying (and write down) your core beliefs and truths, and also your vulnerabilities. Find out who you really are and what you believe in.

Can you be yourself in every situation, with your boss, your partner, your mother-in-law, your best friends? How far do you compromise your true beliefs to “fit in”?

What is the motivation and purpose in every thing you do? Is it for your higher good or to help others? If not, reconsider it.

Spend time alone each day, get into the habit of regular meditation, and get to know the real you. You never know, you could have a pleasant surprise. You will become natural. Others will like and respect that, or move away from you. That does not matter. In turn you will like and respect those who are themselves being themselves.

Remember that while you cannot choose your blood relatives, you can choose your friends, so mix with positive, true to themselves people, and be one yourself.

Have an open mind, admit your errors, go with the flow of things and feel your self- esteem growing. Dress well and walk tall with confidence as you show off the real unique person that you are.

THE SPIRAL

The spiral is the most prehistoric and ancient symbol found in all indigenous cultures, as important as the sun. How did tribes scattered thinly and far apart around the globe have the same symbol? Where did they see it?

For the Romans and Greeks it was the symbol of the gods and oneness of the soul.

To the Celts and Norse it meant all the universe, eternity and goddess.

In India it represented The One and female sexuality, and contains the Fibonacci number sequence.

For the Aborigine it represented all things that are glorious.

In Islam the symbol is used to show Holy things which may not be written.

African cultures see it as the womb, great mother and goddess.

For the Hopi it represents the sacred ones and all living things.

In the Orient it represents the beginning of all life, where the gods came from.

To Native Americans it represents all energy, all consciousness and Great Spirit.

Mayans saw it as the seasons, solstice and the circle of life.

Immortality was the meaning for the Polynesians.

The Native American version of “energy” sits neatly with the fact that spirals of energy emerge from the chakras of the body and are visible to some. My personal experience includes attending a Munay Ki workshop. I lay on the massage table as the facilitator worked to clean my chakra energies. One of the workshop participants saw a spiral of black leaving one of my chakras, as did the facilitator.

The same applies to earth energies, at “chakra” points of the Earth. Dowsers have shown the energy patterns of Ley lines and at the “nodes” where the spirals can be “observed”. Go to Sedona, Arizona and visit the VORTEX, actually many vortices of energy. They are everywhere.

Bath water leaves the bath in a spiral, caused by the rotation of the Earth. It is true that in the Northern hemisphere is flows in a clockwise motion, while it can be see to be anti-clockwise in the Southern hemisphere.

There have been many recent sightings of spirals of light in the sky. One is on film at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sof_QK1z4b4, seen over Norway in 2009.

Was this what the Ancients saw? Scientists dream up their explanations, always to distract the observers from the possibility that for eons, Light beings from the Pleiades and other parts of the Universe are signalling to the occupants of Earth. These benevolent beings are far more advanced than we are, and will come one day to bring peace and light to Earth. You can agree or disagree. It is widely known that Governments and Military have much knowledge of UFOs and extra terrestrial activity and keep it silent. They fear for their status and control, should the Light Beings “invade” to make the world a better place.

Those ancient people used the sky as their books and knowledge. They all saw the same symbols. They also understood energies and balance, which skills have been almost lost today, as the brains of science try to prove and disprove things which were once known to many.

10.10.10 (2010 October 10)

10.10.10 (2010)

This is an auspicious day, and is considered to be a portal to raising awareness and consciousness.

Because of its numerology in the Gregorian calendar it is a date that will be celebrated with global events and meditations with different organizers. It may also be looked upon as a preparation for the Ninth wave and a continuation of the Conscious Convergence.

Whatever your beliefs take time out on Sunday October 10, 2010 to Meditate. Pray, ask for peace, understanding, tolerance, freedom, wisdom, awareness, compassion, abundance for all, awareness, consciousness and understanding that we are all one.

Imagine what it would feel like to visualise and then create the world we most deeply want.

Imagine what humanity would be capable of if we all could come together as one, starting with endorsing a simple Declaration of Interdependence.

10.10.10 Humanity's Date with Destiny is a worldwide invitation to begin a new era of planetary healing, global community, and co-creative partnership with all life.
Whereever you are come together with like minded people throughout the world
When we pause for a moment in silence...
When we make the Declaration of Interdependence...
When we declare ourselves the Founding Family of the New World...
When we encourage everyone we know to do the same...
We become a drop that makes countless ripples...
That Create the New World.

Together the collective consciousness of many people can change the future, as individuals, as communities, as the whole human race.

Some groups will meditate at 6h, 12h and 18h on Sunday, others at 10h. So whichever time zone you are in join in at any of these times and the combined energy of your meditation will greatly lift the vibration in a wave around the planet throughout the day.

108 Beads on a Mala

108 beads on a Mala



Many religions use prayer beads to count the number of times the user says a prayer or a mantra. The earliest recorded use was in Hinduism. The necklace of beads is called a mala, (sanskrit for garland or wreath). Japa mala is the repetition of a mantra or the name of a deity. Often the malas are made from rudraksha seeds.

The beads are fingered in an automated manner leaving the user free to concentrate on the mantra or prayer. Different religions have different numbers of beads in a mala. Buddhists, Hindus and Sikhs use malas of 108 beads, or a smaller wrist one of 27 used four times to achieve the 108 count.

Roman Catholics and Anglicans use 54 beads with an extra 5 for prayers. In Islam there are 33 or 99 beads.

There are many explanations given as to why the number 108 is important. These include:

108 is a Harshad (Sanskrit for great joy) number, which is an integer divisible by the sum of its digits.

There are 54 letters in the Sanskrit alphabet, each having masculine and feminine, shiva and shakti. 54 times 2 is 108.

It is said that there are 108 Indian goddess names.

It is also said that there are 108 gopis or maid servants of Krishna.

There are 12 houses in astrology and 9 planets. 12 times 9 equals 108.

108 is the number used in Islam to refer to God.

Some Buddhists carve 108 small Buddhas on a walnut for good luck, and ring a bell 108 times to celebrate a new year.

It said that there are a total of 108 energy lines converging to form the heart chakra. One of them, sushumna leads to the crown chakra, and is considered to be the path to Self-realization.

A mantra is a word or series of words chanted aloud or silently to invoke spiritual qualities. Chanting is used as a spiritual tool in virtually every cultural and religious tradition. In the yogic tradition a mantra is a Sanskrit word that has special powers to transform consciousness, promote healing or fulfil desires.

The practice of chanting a mantra is used as a form of meditation. Sitting in a comfortable position, with the eyes closed, the mantra is repeated silently or aloud. The mind is focused on the mantra, the thoughts are let go of and the breath is slow and deep.

Hold the mala in the right hand and use the thumb to “count” each mantra by touching the bead during the recitation, then lightly pushing the bead away on completion and moving to the next bead. The index finger is extended and should not touch the mala. The large meru (mountain) bead should not be counted or touched by the thumb and is used as a starting and ending point of the recitation.

Using a 27 bead wrist mala repeat three more times for the 108 sequence turning each time to the other direction at the meru.

When not in use, store the mala in a special, clean and preferably sacred space such as on a personal alter or statue of a deity.

Mother's Blessing_Snatam Kaur

GIVING AND RECEIVING

GIVING AND RECEIVING

Giving, and being open to receiving are important aspects of the spiritual journey, and important lessons are learned. Just as the people in our lives are there for a purpose, they teach us what is needed, both the light and the dark.

Gifts are made with Love, but not always as we think it. The situation can appear to be hurtful, but is a necessary wake up call. Behind the words or the action is Love to help us to clear some karma, or face up to some challenge, or to awaken the possibility to act in a different way, which we don’t appreciate at the time.

Each gift is an opportunity for healing, and it is a valuable lesson to see it that way. Recognise these situations as the mirror to your actions, and as the way forward on the personal path, the necessary release of some aspect, which needs release.

There must be balance. A gift to another is worthless if the giver is not also open to receive. How often does pride cause us to reject a gift, often a gift offered from parents to children even? How often are gifts rejected because of fear of imbalance, or that the receiver will remain indebted to the giver?

Those living in darkness help you to find Light. Those who mistrust or abuse help your freedom.

Recognise each gift as a gift of Love. It is an advance along the path, a closure of something from the past, and a release of the dense 3D energies. The giver and receiver are Love. The gift is love. Be grateful, bless and release the giver for the gift.

Don't do that today

When you complete two or three "boxes" of information text, in websites, they crash, and you lose the text, the universe is saying, "don't do that today". Relax. That is how my morning started.

I looked at my watch. It said 11:11, so everything is on track, everything is as it is supposed to be.

I am creating my own frustrations. I am going against the flow.

Relax, David and prepare for the trip to Spain next week.

VIBRATIONS of MUSIC

VIBRATIONS of MUSIC

I rarely watch television now. I rarely see a news bulletin. The broadcasters, like the newspapers, allocate most of their airtime and energy to bad news. They compete for viewers by offering the most sensational stories and images. They spread so much negative energy into people’s minds, like mass hypnotism. The lives of footballers and of actresses are put on pedestals for all to see, then pulled apart like sport for the distorted entertainment of those with nothing better to focus on.

There should be a good news channel, to uplift and to motivate the masses to acts of kindness, and showing possibilities of each having their own beautiful life, full of gratitude for the gifts they have.

The internet provides most of my entertainment needs. As I enter to check my mail I see the news headings. In most cases that tells me all I need to know about the disasters and scandles.

The internet also provides music, and thanks to social networks, my friends and I can share what we like. I have found so much good music that way.

So when Sarah (name changed for anonymity) posted a message asking for music recommendations I was able to respond. I know that she is a single mother whose whole life, typically, revolves around her son. I have give her Life Coaching so I know things about her which she would not normally disclose.

My recommendation to her was A Mother’s Blessing by Snatam Kaur. The singer has a beautiful pure voice, and in this song she sings in both English and Spanish.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuWwheIXrdg&feature=search

Sarah’s response filled my heart with joy, and I was so pleased that I had made the effort to respond to her open request.

The deepest sense of fulfilment and wonderment I ever experienced was carrying my son.... my mother was the first to know. She said 'Oh no, my baby's having a baby'

In that moment I understood that being a mother has no words deep enough to describe the depth of the bond between a mother and her child.

The smallest gesture can make a difference to someone’s day, and to their life.

Music has vibration and the listener will immediately feel whether any piece of music will resonate at a frequency which at worst, annoys and makes them feel uncomfortable, and at best lifts the heart and spirit, and fills the person with joy.

Music, dance, art and all things creative are right brain activities. So many of us use the analytical left brain most of the time and are out of balance. Right brain activities are such good partners as we walk our spiritual paths. Share the music you love with others, and try something new.

TRUST IN THE OUTCOME

Manifest what you want. Take charge of your own life by focusing only on the positive things you want to achieve. With your growing awareness, you know that anything is possible, personally, and for the “New Earth” which so many aspire to, free from the third dimensional greed, hatred, disease, jealousy and poverty, to the joy, love, peace and abundance, the earth of fifth dimension qualities

You never know how close you are to achieving your personal dreams and goals, and often lose trust. In negativity, you then refocus on what you are trying to move from, the old third dimension poverty, when in fact personal abundance is so close.

If the pearl fisherman knows that it takes a hundred oysters to find three pearls, he will not give up at 97 if he has not found a pearl. Will you give up and lose trust in the positive outcome when you are so close. Will you regress to the old patterns, which will surely bring the old result?

Focus on what you want to achieve, and continue to visualise the outcome, make daily meditations asking for the abundance you need.

Everything is energy, vibration and consciousness. Invoke the Violet Flame. Visualise it around you, to protect you and to provide what you need. Ask for what you need for yourself, and for the new consciousness of the earth and it’s inhabitants. Ask for the poverty consciousness to become abundance consciousness for all who have awakened and for those yet to awake.

Create the higher vibration. Others are doing the same. Together in co-creation, the critical mass will be achieved and the new vibrations will create the world we want to live in. Never give up. The pearl could be in the next oyster.

What you don’t like, you have the option to change. You also have the ability and responsibility to change it. That is like a democracy. But in politics you give your energy to the politicians who don’t use it. You give responsibility to the doctor to be healed, but now is the time to take back the energy and responsibility and to make the changes yourself.

There is a Divine plan for the New Earth. Your contribution is important, as is the contribution of enough like-minded people to tip the balance to the new vibration. Respond to your heart’s call. Be the greatest force of good you can be. Make a positive difference each day.

With good intention:

“I am one with all life. I am divine unconditional love. I am abundance. I am grateful for all that I am and have. I have a healing touch. I am the outcome I visualise and move towards each day, for myself, and for the planet. I do what I choose. I have what I need. I am who I want to be. My reward is from helping others.”

When you want something…..

When you want something…..

Read the signs, read the omens. They are there for all to see as we progress through life. But how many of us notice them, and then how many of us react and take action because of the sign. Call it intuition if you prefer. But the signs are real. Like seeing 11:11 regularly on digital clocks, and other places.

Be aware. Or be unaware.

One choice in life leads to another, and to another. That is happening to me. And as a result a new friend told me that I must read Paul Coelho’s classic book, THE ALCHEMIST. I went online to Amazon.com and found it. I placed an order. The order could not be fulfilled because the seller would not post the book to the country I am in.

I am learning to go with the flow, and not fight against it.

Various friends on Facebook keep posting quotes by Paul Coelho, which I find inspiring. I saved a few. The signs are all pointing me to Paul Coelho, and to the Alchemist.

Finally I am watching a Paul Coelho video interview on youtube, and as usual scan the similar options to the right of the screen. There is a short video about The Alchemist. I watch it and see The Alchemist (1/30) and click on that.

English actor Jeremy Irons starts reading the book to me. Three hours or so later he reaches the end with video (30/30). I am thrilled that it was so easy to “hear” the book. I am also thrilled with the simple message running through the book:

When you want something the whole Universe will conspire for you to have it. If you really want it, put your energy and vibration into the air to achieve it. Turn the dream into reality. Take the risk. Step away from the comfort zone. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Dive deep into the universal language of signs and omens, and with practice, focus and dedication, step into the unknown and follow the dream.

Put aside fear, the fear of failure, the fear of success, the fear of the unknown, the fear of what others will say. There are many dream stealers out there who will do everything in their power to persuade you to give up on your dream. Ignore them and follow your heart and your truth.

Thank you Paul for the vision, and for showing the way. You followed your dream to write books and to inspire. Many were inspired before me. Many more will be.

SURYA and CHANDRA The Play of Sun and Moon in human relationships

SURYA and CHANDRA

The Play of Sun and Moon in human relationships

In ancient Vedic scripts the sun SURYA, moon CHANDRA, and the planets were all related to human characteristics and interaction.

The sun gives the light, and energy from it’s fire, the masculine quality. The moon reflects the light of the sun, the feminine quality. When Surya leads and takes responsibility, Chandra is bathed with the light and there is harmony. All is as nature planned.

Surya attracts Chandra and the essential male – female energies support each other. Chandra is programmed to be beautiful, and to praise and encourage Surya, who in turn is devoted to love and to take care of Chandra, and the family. Surya is the strength and leadership. Patient Chandra is responsive to the leadership, and dedicates her life to be the support of their Surya partner, and mother to his children.

Surya is the leader. There can only be one leader. In present times many women take the role of Surya because the man in the relationship does not lead, or take responsibility. He may have been raised by a Surya mother, often in a single parent family. He was conditioned to the Chandra role by the strength of his Surya mother who fought to raise him alone, and dedicated years of her life to this lonely task, which she would not have missed for the world. He does not know how be be Surya to a woman.

Or the woman is the single mother, or single career woman, so is the Surya. She has the capability to revert to the Chandra role if she meets a strong Surya male, or can remain the Surya to a weaker Chandra male.

Some Chandra women, on connecting with the Chandra male, spend years of patient encouragement to train their man to be the Surya. Some just become the Surya of the relationship.

As women recognise and practice their spiritual growth and journey, many will become the Surya, in that aspect at least, or will walk away and take the journey alone. Many Surya women walk the spiritual path.

So how can career couple, both, Surya, has a personal relationship? In practice one or other will become the Surya at home, the other the Chandra. It can be one roll at work, the other at home. There will be compromise, separate paths within the relationship, or clashes. In practice, they can both be so drained by the careers that they come home and exist, sharing meals, a concert, a holiday, and little else. But they remain connected because most of the package functions to a degree of satisfaction.

Of course this is just a scene from the play. The young men taking the powerboat to a bay for a boys day out, drinking beer, and playing loud music for everyone nearby to hear, are not taking responsibility. They are Mars, not Surya.

To keep this article simple, the planet aspects have been ignored but will exist in all.

Are you Surya, taking responsibility? Are you Chandra, reflecting the light and providing the support to a Surya? Does reading this inspire you to change?

TANTRIC HEALING

TANTRIC HEALING

The age old Asian philosophy of tantra encourages openness, and focus on YOU.

Various things can bring emotions to the surface. Emotions are no more than blocked energy in the body.

The pendulum effect is known by many, the swings from the positive to the negative and back, good days and bad days, joy and depression. Tantra aims to even the flow, to reduce the pendulum effect making more of an even flow, like natures passage of the tides.

Open the heart chakra and let it flow. Let what flow? Energies and emotions. Many emotions are trapped in the heart chakra. Many are in the lower chakras, blockages caused by repressions and fears, childhood experiences and guilt, often including sexuality. Energies should flow freely around the whole body, but blockages prevent this.

It is time to release old negative emotional patterns.

Tantra healing can be for one person, or shared by a couple.

Start with breathing. Breathe energy into the heart chakra. Open the heart to the pureness of love energy. Be conscious of the energy flow. As each emotion surfaces, work through it, with your tantra facilitator or partner. As the energy rises, keep breathing it in and let it flow to the base chakra.

Share breathing; sit facing each other and breathe together, then one breathes in while the other breathes out. Talk about the feelings and emotions. You partner needs to be receptive. This is your space and time. Feel and tap into your own energy field. Connect and flow as one. This is a safe loving environment to let go and to be healed.

Feel the energy and tap into your own energy centre. Connect and flow as one. Open your energy centre to flow energies evenly back and forth with your partner.

Feel, don’t think. Let go the old, unwanted emotions. They are not needed. They are baggage. Lighten the load.

Avoid taking on the emotions of the partner. Each person needs to feel and deal with their own emotions, to sort them out and to grow as a result. Emotions can be picked up from your partner. Ask yourself “is this emotion mine?”

Where there are sexual blockages (most people have them), usually at the sacral chakra, the tantra facilitator can address this with specific bodywork and breathing. That will be the subject of another article.

Poem - Man, Boat, Reflections

MAN, BOAT, REFLECTIONS

A warm summer evening, man alone with his boat

A beautiful bay, a cooling breeze

Voices from other boats mix with the sounds of water

Man and boat are almost one, many shared adventures

Silence of moonlit nights, shelter of bays and ports

Power of storms and sea, joys of dolphins and whales

Reflections in the water, sun oven the water

Ever moving wavelets, ever changing light

No computer, no internet, no locked door

Time to reflect on the past, the people, the places

Disconnected by time and space, returning in mind

Memories of love, of desire, of touch

Memories of friendships and adventures

Memories of moments like this

Things that were, things that might have been

Reflections brought from the subconscious

Hopes and desires for the future

People to meet, places to visit, life to live

Joys and loves to experience

Thoughts of the here and now, this moment

Special friends to share the moment

To share the sunset to share the clear air

To share a smile, a joke, a meal, a drink

Man is happy alone with his boat

Man is happy to share the special moments

To share the breeze, to share the reflections

Man will sleep, boat will keep the night watch.

THE BALANCED LIFE

THE BALANCED LIFE

You don’t need to be spiritual to live a balanced or an unbalanced life.

On a scale of 0 (unsatisfactory) to 10 (very satisfactory) you can rate your current status. Choose your own categories; but they may include: work / career, family, relationship / love, sport, hobbies, fitness, health, friends, spirituality, travel, art / creativity, finances etc.

Draw a circle with some spokes (like a wheel) from the centre to the edge. At the end of each spoke write one of the chosen categories. The centre of the wheel represents your zero, unsatisfactory rating. The rim represents your ten, the very satisfactory.

Now plot you scores onto the spokes of the wheel and join the dots. A workaholic who rarely sees the family, or who has no time for relationships might rate career at 9 and family, or relationship at 2. Someone out of work, but who has time to meditate and do yoga each day may rate career 0 and spirituality 9.

The lines between the dots show the shape of your wheel, your present moment life balance. Would your wheel roll down the road, or stop?

It is important to focus on your present moment life balance, and address any imbalance. It could improve your health as well as bringing necessary balance.

How did you rate your spirituality? 1 or 2 because you are frustrated, can’t find the time, or don’t know how to progress? Or 8 or 9 because you live and breathe it, despite other calls on your time and energy?

It is easy to put spirituality into little boxes, the one-hour yoga class, and the weekly meditation group. Then you get on with your life until the next spiritual appointment in your diary. You are probably the one who made a low score on the wheel, and you see spirituality as another activity to find time for.

Or you make the decision to act like the spiritual being that you are (or want to be), living this human experience. Wake up a few minutes earlier in the morning if necessary and develop a routine, for example:

Make four rounds of the yoga surya namaskar (sun salutation) and follow it with ten minutes of meditation, before you put the kettle or the computer on.

Then throughout the day think LOVE to all, and everything, smile at people, say good morning to strangers, pick up some discarded drink bottle and put it in the recycling bin, take a few deep breaths, connect with nature, even if you can only make loving touch with a tree outside the office.

Be CONSCIOUS about all aspects of the day. Spiritualiy is consciousness and awareness.

Consider what really matters, what is really important. Focus your energies on what needs doing, in a conscious way. Treat the people around you in a conscious loving way.

Speak using positive words and statements. Avoid negative words,

Instead of “s**t, there’s no coffee”, say, “We need more coffee”.

When asked how you are, reply, “great thanks”, even if you don’t feel it. It raises the whole vibration and positivity in the home, or in the workplace. “Not bad” or “could be worse” drops the whole vibration. Be the shining light in your people group and the others will respond. Diplomatically, you can even encourage the others to do the same. Become, discreetly, the spiritual leader. Avoid becoming the spiritual bore.

Very few people are truly in balance, all of the time. Compare with a yachtsman steering his yacht across the sea. The desired destination may lie ahead on a compass course of 090 degrees, due east. When he concentrates, the bow will follow that average course but may move between 085 degrees and 095 degrees. When he gets tired, or distracted, the course may vary between 070 degrees and 110 degrees. The yacht will still reach the destination, but will take longer and get there in a less efficient way.

So are you on course today, and focussed, or are you distracted and keep deviating from the course?

There are extremes in spirituality of course. You may choose to take an intensive three-month retreat in an ashram, and ignore the world outside, or take some similar time out on your own in nature. Identify and live your truth. Over time you will develop different perspectives, and you will create the new balance that suits the new you. In fact some time out to find yourself, or to get to know yourself, is a worthwhile part of the spiritual journey.

Think yin and yang, think balance, be balanced.
