Daily Dalai Lama Wisdom

(continued)

Now it is really a very serious issue.
It is not a question of one or two nations, but of the survival and health of all of humanity.
If we have a clear conscience about this problem and behave accordingly, it seems there is a way to at least lessen this problem.
For example, two or three years ago when I was in Stockholm beside the big river, some of my friends told me that 10 years previously there had been no fish in the river because the water was so polluted.
Around the time of my visit some fish had begun to appear because of the control of pollution.
So this shows that there is the possibility of improving things.

Corinthians - A Tribute To Paul (3)

(3)

Unlike the former apostles and prophets
of the Lord our God,
we deem it not necessary to minister the love of Christ
through solely the ink of written words.

Instead, we wish it be done that the Word of God
is written on the living hearts of all faith driven souls.

Of what use is the Law if the Law
is not perceived to be more than Living
and more than thriving in the hearts of all?

Trusting in the power that was given over to the Christ,
our singular efforts towards the propagation of the Gospels
comes not from our own vain strivings
but from the Absolute Permission of God the Father.

Disposing of the worn out tablets of stone
bearing the commandments of Moses,
the glory of God can only be experienced
and lived in the flesh of men and women.

The Spirit is the giver of Eternal Life,
whereas the veil which hides
the true nature of Moses
is meant to solely prepare the devotee
for contact with the Ever Living God.

If your heart is stone like,
then whichever scripture is read
will appear to also be like an inert stone of heavy consciousness.

If graced by the Spirit of spirits,
this veil which blocks your view
will reveal where the Original Liberty of the Spirit is.

Looking through the lens of this world,
whosoever approaches the Lord
will also be transformed into the glorious
image of the Spirit of God.

(4)

Dispersing the ashes of dishonesty
and walking in the truth of the Word of God,
may we be righteousness enough to pass
through this world unharmed.

Never stopping to fan the flame of devotion
in those who believe in the Christ,
if we were to hide our faith from others,
the world would collapse due to the spiritual poverty
of missing out on the victory of Truth Everlasting.

Shining with the light of Christ,
may the Christ spread His missionary powers
through our dedication to glorifying the Word of God.

God the Father also shining in our hearts,
may we freely give of this light to such a darkened and miserly world
of treacherous kings and treacherous peoples.

Buried in this vessel of earth,
what power drives us into action is ultimately elusive
to our proper intelligence.

Persecuted by the down trodden masses
and the furious tax collectors,
may the Life that is in Jesus
also make its way into our own bodies.

Living not for the sword but for the Son of God,
we bear the same death and resurrection
as our Lord in Heaven.

Thanking God the Father for all of the
burdensome moments and acts of grace,
we shall never die but be born anew every day.

Perceiving the Invisible Spirit
while still bound to this visible coat of flesh,
that which is Invisible is the Eternal Life
of all who have sacrificed themselves for His Son's Expanded Glories.

October's Flame - Poem by Teresa White

October's Flame

“Ah” What whispering crest
Laden forest floor
Gold, orange, yellow, rusting flow
Shadow glumness there moon glow
Autumn corner’s in July’s noon
Though walk in the park
I search out your hand
Yawn heart beat in mine
Tree rows unreel in forest mist
Hang low, bow down branch bent nigh
Mold in one, one heart, one in you one in me
Take love’s season correct me so
See wander flee, no love
Laden forest floor

Crossroads

I have a love/hate relationship with crossroads. They appear when I'm least expecting it. This last one was very sneaky about appearing.
We get comfy in our routines - even the spiritual ones, but you know when things are about to change. The vision began several months ago near the beginning of the year. I spent a couple of weeks just looking at it, not really wanting to pay attention, but Spirit is persistent and patient. It began like this:

A black top highway in a landscape. Behind me, the landscape extended far into the past. Ahead of me, the highway came to a cliff. It wasn't a gentle drop, sloping down - it was a straight drop, perpendicular to the top leading straight down.

I stood on that highway often, knowing to go back was pointless - it was the past - been there, done that. The only logical choice was to move forward towards the cliff. I've jumped many times in my life, but that was not appropriate with this cliff. This time, I knew, I had to walk- to step purposefully. After weeks of deliberation, the vision did not fade - simply waited.
Jumping off a cliff involves over coming fears, but there was no jumping opportunity here - sometimes jumping is easier. A deliberate step off the cliff was not the answer either.
I had to walk from the flat stretch of road, continuing on as if the cliff and the effects of gravity did not exist for me. You might think that traveling in the unseen means that gravity and such is not an issue, but that's not true. You can fall.
The method needed here was to work with the energy of the unseen, weaving the force in such a way that I turned perpendicular with the road.

I walked to the edge of the cliff and simply kept walking. As I walked, my daughter joined me. At first, on either side of the road, was a desert landscape. Soon, people appeared on both sides. Lost and confused, wandering about, the people did not notice us. Death was all around us - not the death most people are familiar with, but the death known to Shamans - the death of the living. More and more people, the walking dead, appear of either side of the highway, but we continued on, chatting and laughing. All at once, the people disappeared and only the desert remained. We came to the crossroads.

As I said, crossroads tend to sneak up on me. I was not happy to see this one. "Shit."

Four paths, four roads - the one we walked upon led back to my past. The road to the left led to my daughters past. The road to the right, my mothers past. The road ahead was the unknown. Of course, the only logical choice was to journey forward into the unknown, but we could not see a thing - nothing - complete unknown.

I remembered the words the Grandmothers spoke to me in another story - "as you step, so will your daughter, but you must step first, then she can step."

So we took the road into the unknown, stepping, mother first, then daughter.

The unknown journey we began so many months ago led us East, back to our family and then back to Arizona to friends. It has not been an easy walk so far - rather heartbreaking and exhausting, but wonderful things have occurred along the way - new relationships, two books done with more in the works, a new home with the ancient energies of horse and wolf and so much more to come.

While the universe swirls around us, the fearful panic, the lost and confused cry out for help, we walk - step by step. We know that while the planets and the stars move through sky, the earth shakes and rumbles in her stretching, the sun gives a light show, the oceans batter the shores, we only need to step. Step by step, we move through the days, manifesting our dreams and passions walking the road laid out before us. We heal as we step. Always guided, we have no need to follow the masses or step off the road to either side where all those people wait for something to happen. We don't wait, we step and create as we walk.
While I'll probably always have that love/hate relationship with the crossroads, I am grateful for the opportunities they offer. We choose, we create and we step. If we could, we'd bring along some of you from either side of the road, but we can't. We can only greet you, welcome you as you step on the road to walk your own path. Whenever you choose to take that step, make it your choice. Perhaps you're like me and starting walking long ago, through several crossroads, as the planets swirled above - in that case, I'll see you along the way.

~ And For No Reason ~ By Hafiz ~ Posted By Agnes MacEachern ~



~ And For No Reason ~

And
For no reason
I start skipping like a child.


And
For no reason
I turn into a leaf
That is carried so high
I kiss the sun's mouth
And dissolve.

And
For no reason
A thousand birds
Choose my head for a conference table,
Start passing their
Cups of wine
And their wild songbooks all around.

And
For every reason in existence
I begin to eternally,
To eternally laugh and love!

When I turn into a leaf
And start dancing,
I run to kiss our beautiful Friend
And I dissolve in the Truth
That I Am.

Being God in the Otherwise Ordinary Moments

Daily Spiritual Tools, the Book

My feelings often turn to awe when I remember the precious gift that is this life. Along with those feelings, I end up wondering what is mine to do to best honor the gift I’ve been given. Like many others, I yearn to fully express the light of God that shines within me.

While at the same time realizing that all that happens is right and perfect and definitely enough, I am also aware of wanting to do more to share the greatness of my experience of being spirit in a body. And so today I am again left wondering, what is my spirit’s next step in expressing myself as God?

When I take the time to ask the question and then stop to hear the answer that wells up from deep within me, the answer always comes through different words but the essence is the same.

I am reminded that I have shared the many gifts I’ve been given not so much through the bigger, life-altering moments that I will probably remember for a lifetime, but in each and every small moment of my life.

I share the profound gift of divine wisdom living through me in every sacred moment that I live, when I consciously choose who I want to be, and then be that person.

It is through every small thought and action of each ordinary day that I choose to express the light that is always there shining brightly within me.

In any moment, I can choose the kindest possible interpretation of another’s actions, recognizing that I never have the complete story about someone else’s experience. I can speak clearly and truthfully, allowing the vibration of my truth to affect a situation.

In any moment I can consciously let go of fear by turning a situation over to God, allowing myself to be fully and joyfully present, knowing that all is unfolding for good. I can take an extra moment to smile at or hold a door for a stranger. Or I can stop often and acknowledge my deep gratitude, saying thank you for the light that lives in my heart.

All we need do is ask, as often as we’re aware enough to do it, “What would God within me do now? And now? What about now?” Our awareness of ourselves as God allows God full expression in the world. In every small moment that we are aware of this, we add ripples of ever-expanding light to our human experience. We make each moment extraordinary.

May you remember the God of your heart in your everyday experience, and may this tool be a blessing. . .

you light up my world, you light up my life

You light up my world,
when the dark hits the night,
You light up my life,
when there is darkness and strife,
You make me feel special in all that I do,
you open my heart so that the sun shines through.

You remind me of my love that i forget,
You warm up my soul as I have never felt yet,
the smile on my face is down to you,
You bring out the colours lilac, gold and blue

Lilac for spirit that grows strong,
In the knowledge your close when the day grows long,
Gold is the colour that surrounds your whole,
And blue is the colour that strengthens my soul.

The name of you is reading this now from me,
That touches my heart with each word and prayer that you pray
Let these words reach deep you shall see,
That is how much love I have with every word that I say

My name is angel rose as you all know
thanks to my beautiful soul siSTAR kerry and all,
And watch as my spirit will lovingly grow,
I will answer to you when you call

I love you all dearly from within my heart,
As you all touch me, i will do you
across the waters that are spread apart,
Link always spritually too.

My lights one and all I thank you my loves
with all that i am and all that i be
with peace flown from the doves
I bring it to thee.

Sunday 12/2/12

Good Evening! We have a really intense reading coming in tonight so we’ll get right to it. We are going to hear from the Vision Quest tarot.

3 of Doubt (reversed) – “Doubt, uncertainty, confusion – As long as you doubt yourself, it is wiser to remain quiet, instead of jumping on some new distraction, however tempting it may look. Since the fearful mind just swings from one extreme to the other without ever reaching a decision, you better wait for an answer from your heart. Train in the art of being patient. As soon as a certain inner equilibrium has been reached and clarity returns, the new direction reveals itself to you.”

It is always intriguing to see a card come up that has been heard from recently. A pause occurs to wonder what was missed the last time it was drawn. The first thing that comes in is the act of impulsivity. Too many times we see something that we feel we have to act on and because it was not from the heart, we wind up causing a mess. Then we are left wondering how to clean it up. We find ourselves on a battlefield of the mind that we cannot escape from, and there is a danger in this when we are in the midst of someone else’s space. Without cause, warning, or intention we find ourselves lashing out at the very person we wanted to avoid doing so to. When attempting to make a decision we should always make sure that we are not making a hasty one that isn’t from the heart. Our minds want to react first and ask our hearts questions later. This is one habit form that far too many people have to literally fight within themselves to overcome.

One of the hardest things to keep in our awareness during these times is being patient. Not only with us, but the situation at hand is it essential to know at least a portion of patience. We could walk into a situation or be presented with one that we find ourselves immediately triggered and in a mode of reaction. Instead of finding ourselves trapped in this mode, we can stop, take a breath, and take a moment to look inside at what is happening in front of us. By simply reacting we are giving in to the impulses that drive the human ego. The side of ego that most of us are trying desperately to get under control can rear its hideous and monstrous face if we aren’t careful. As we all work through our awareness and journey’s we find it easier to maintain “control” over this side that we don’t want others to see or that we try to keep from controlling us. The card warned us of jumping onto a new distraction, and this is mindset is what it is calling for. A mindset we can use to keep us aware of our triggers, our reactions, our patience, and our compassion. If we are acting from the heart, there is no danger.

Now, what of knowing who we are or where we are going, how do we know? How do we keep patient when we are looking constantly for the signs and knowledge that we are asking for. Where is the guidance when we feel we need it most? How do we continue to go through each minute of each day without knowing what we are being called to do? As we release, let be, and dissolve the triggers and bad habits we find ourselves almost lost trying to find what the new is. Most of us are too impatient to allow this to happen of its own accord. We want to rush it, to force the beginning of the path that is being built in front of us. Only when we are ready, will we walk down it. The next card signifies this calling.

Medicine Man (relates to the magician) – “Mystical forces, intuitive grasp of the truth, flowing energy – The Medicine Man tells you that you already are what you seek. As soon as you turn your attention away from ‘wanting to become’ to the awareness of ‘WHAT IS’, you get a taste of the meaning of this card. Once you focus on ‘SIMPLY BEING’ and renounce the mind’s addiction to complicate everything by thinking about it, a new understanding arises. In the immediacy of unfabricated simplicity your greatest talents are revealed. You recognize what is true power, genuine creativity. Your growing awareness of the miraculousness of your existence gives you faith in the workings of the Great Mystery. And this faithfulness makes you capable of using the powers you once feared correctly. Gratefully accept the assistance that is offered to you now.”

Amazing how we spend so much wasted time trying to find who we are, isn’t it? we go through each day in our heads questioning everything that comes our way to the point that we can’t get out of our heads. We don’t realize that we are who we are. Who we are is a choice, don’t misunderstand, but choosing to be who you are, who resides in your heart is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves. As we are approaching the gift-giving season, keep this mind. Are we giving of ourselves what we want and what we can or are we giving because we feel we are expected to? A small tangent to lead us deeper into the meaning of this card, but at the same time a poignant statement. We are so trained to do what everyone expects us to that we lose sight of who we are and what we stand for.

Then we spend so much of our precious time worrying that we are being who we are expected to be. When was it lost that being who we are is good enough? Was it ever in play where people could accept themselves and others for the beautiful gift they are? Was there ever a time where we did not judge others because of their beliefs, color of their skin, or financial standing? When we will ever step out of this if we are always worried about this in the back of our minds. If being yourself means dressing in rags, then do it. If being yourself means that you see yourself in a large house with all of the fancy toys, then make it happen. Being yourself should not depend on what others expect of you. There are things in this life where this may be somewhat contradictory as we see in most job places. We certainly could not go into work with minimal clothing just because that’s who we are. But could we?

Imagine for a moment something extraordinary, just for a moment. What would the world look like if everyone were allowed to live according to the truth of them? What would you see? What would they look like? How would they be dressed? What differences would be in this imaginary world if there were no judgment, no hypocrisy, and no control for the sake of control? How difficult is this exercise for you? Take a few moments and actually bring this image into your consciousness. Will your mind allow for it or is it so trained that things have to be “just so” in order for you to fit into this crazy world? It is a daring exercise indeed if you can simply imagine it with no holds barred. Now, what would happen if more people actually started living this way? That would be an awakening like no other.

For us to be who we are, this is one of the greatest obstacles we face. The simple fact that there are so many societal “rules” for us to follow in order for surviving can paralyze an entire nation. Imagine once more what would happen if there were no boundaries, no electronics, and we had to count on one another in order to survive. Imagine that the government has failed and we have to maintain all on our own without any back up. What do you suppose would happen then? Would we fight or stop the insanity that is in our egos in order to do what was needed to be done to simply live? Most of you are going to respond with something along the lines of “Of course there would be fighting,” or perhaps “We couldn’t live without government, there has to be some order.” Yes, you just thought these things before they were offered to you, why? That’s how we’ve been trained to think through the masses, and it doesn’t seem to have an ending in sight any time soon.

To take this back a few paces to the card and go on a bit further, let’s look at how you think when you are calm. When you find yourself in a place that you feel completely safe to be who you are, what is different? Does you energy flow? Do you feel a sense of calm from the outside world and it doesn’t bother you as it normally does? What would happen if you could take that same feeling and apply it to your growth? By giving in to the essence of simply being, you find yourself understanding things in a way that you never thought possible. It is a daunting task and may cause pain along the way as you rid yourself of old habits, but you’ll notice a change in your reactions to things that used to bother you terribly. The reactions aren’t as fierce, long lasting or as damaging. You realize the difference and are able to see things in a whole new light.

What a wonderful world it would be if we were all able to release the shackles we have upon our wrists and attached to our hearts. Unlock the locks and let your heart open. Let the energy flow. Quiet the mind and hear the beats of your heart. It sits quietly beating and giving us the very life we are living. It does so without force. It does so without expectation of anything in return. What a wonderful example of simply being we carry with us. Much like the very breath that unless we force it to stop, just happens. If you were to expand this thought into your thoughts, what a difference it would make in your life. What wondrous new doors would begin to open for you, and the fear of walking through them would dissipate, because you would intuitively know whether or not you were supposed to walk through. If you feel that you need to ask someone a question or look at something, do it. A door won’t open if you don’t turn the knob.

Create the magic in your life that you are capable of. You are a beautiful being who is connected to everything you see. Your thoughts, your actions, and your heart manifest desires, fears, wishes, and worries by the very energies that are connected to everything. It may not seem completely obvious all the time, but we all hold this capability within us. And with this amazing gift, we also have the choice in how we use it. Therefore, have patience; know that it lies inside waiting to come out. But the conditions have to be right. That is something we choose, but cannot completely control. Nature and divinity decide that for us. We have but to enjoy being.

Je Vous Aime Tous!

Power vs. Force

What a busy week it's been. I had some really powerful conversations and connections. Towards the end of the week, I felt physically and emotionally drained. I got clear that I really have to take care of myself better. If I am not there for me, how can I be there for others? My Reiki sessions always seem to save me. Thank you, Krista Mitchell ;-)

This week's headline items: Mercury is making its third move over the Solar Eclipse degree on Monday evening; the Last Quarter Moon will be exact on Thursday; a 21-and-a-half hour Moon Void of Course will start on Saturday evening; Venus also moves over the Solar Eclipse degree, early afternoon Sunday.

The week starts with the Moon in playful Leo on Monday, where it will journey until Wednesday morning. We have a chance to appreciate ourselves and our lives -- and to connect to the heart. Hand out as many compliments as possible, they will be deeply appreciated Happy You might also enjoy spending some time with little ones. Fun, games and romance are a big part of this energy as well.

Monday at 9:15pm EST Mercury (now direct again) moves over the Solar Eclipse degree for the third time (the first time was on Oct. 21st, the second on Nov. 20th). This gives us a chance to take a third look at what was born in us at the time of the New Moon/Solar Eclipse (on Nov. 13th). Where are we seeking to connect on a deeper level? What are we yearning to talk about? How can we empower ourselves and others with our thoughts and words? What issues need to be re-addressed and with whom?

On Tuesday the Moon remains in playful, heart-centered Leo all day (see Monday for details).

We enter a 14-hour Moon void of course (VoC) on Tuesday afternoon (from 5:07pm EST until 6:51am EST Wednesday morning). Use this intuitive time to remain flexible and make necessary adjustments, especially in connection with communication of all sorts; and with public or private transportation. As best as you can, go with the flow and avoid stubborn responses ;-)

On Wednesday morning at 6:51am EST, the Moon moves into detail-oriented, practical Virgo, where it will journey until Friday early afternoon. This turns our focus toward practical activities -- reorganizing and rethinking our plans, perhaps. Solving problems, making order out of confusion, helping others: these all bring emotional satisfaction. Health matters might come into focus. We notice the parts that make up the whole. This is a great time to look at our daily routines (eating, work, self-care, etc.) to see if they are in alignment with our long-term goals.

Have a fantastic week! Keep an open heart and allow all of life to move through you ;-)
Many blessings,
Sonja

The ‘End of the World as You Know It’ - Really!

Perhaps it is coming and perhaps it is not, but (if as the title suggests) it is true that the end of the world as you know it nigh, what does this really mean? ‘Nothing’ or ‘whatever will be will be’ could be your answer, and yet if you truly believed or knew that the most drastic of outcomes were imminent what would you choose to do?
It is apparent to some that there are many who have come and gone that have predicted Armageddon, and that most of their predictions have past their dates and appear most unlikely to reach their promised potential. So is this a warning of yet another promise of doom? No, it is not. This is an update of where we find ourselves in these times, with the world around us and its future for us all.
The economy is in tatters and the cost of utilities has become an extra source of tax. The emotional reality of nine to five workers is that for the masses it is not fulfilling. The hearts of those who drudge through their days, week in and week out are empty. The general population is struggling emotionally with keeping the basics supplied. They are also having great difficulty in finding much real joy in all they continually try to achieve, and they are watching their children realise that there is very little real future for the average to strive for, and this breaks the great resolve of so many watching our young fall.
It is true that there is much to live for and yet it is also true that the old work, earn and support has become inadequate at supplying a quality of life. There is an answer, and it is but one only of the many I am sure. It was foretold to us all in one of the first prophecies, “from whence you came, ye shall return”. In that I believe each person who feels that their tomorrows hold very little hope of ease and grace, from any set of circumstances that may befall each of them, that we need to return to the way that we started this whole race and become family again, and self-sufficient in all that we need.
The answer to joy is to apply your labors and toil to self-serving and procuring what you need to live with family and friends every day, and not just weekends. To grow your food and share surplus with others is how we built this great human experience. With respect to the thousands of little towns dying from lack of people; if many were to make an economic decision to sell their tired houses and lives they live now to the busy world of consumption, and retire to a suitable but basic community, where they could purchase (perhaps outright) a property at a fraction of what they sold their old one for, and begin working for themselves and their families in collecting water and cultivating their own fruit and vegetables, then there could be a revival for many, and the outcomes could and would become much more than you could imagine.
If a great many were to retreat and spend their hard earned dollars on building a self-sufficient and family orientated world in the small communities scattered outside the great consumer focused cities, then we could see the salvation of our hearts and souls. Our children would see value for their efforts again and people could learn to live together in peace.
I believe there is great opportunity right now, irrespective of Earth changes, spirituality or notions of Armageddon, to (while we still can) return to basics. Even though we might find ourselves with less material comfort, we might also find what our ancestors did - where there is a will there is a way. We can return from whence we came. Just a thought...Grant 01/12/12 www.themeeters.com

Ah, the Dreams of Life...

Balancing one’s dreams and drives with the harsh realities and circumstances of life can be a challenge, right? For most of my life, I have lived with big dreams. I have dreamt of being famous, of making history, of writing widely read books, of speaking before large crowds. And, all of this before having my lunch.

But then, there is my life as it really is…my “real” life with it’s ordinariness. For me, my growth edge has been in learning how to allow life to evolve instead of attempting to control life and its evolution. I’m finding, too, it is infinitely more satisfying than living with the haunting fear that time is running out and my dreams have not all materialized.

Carl Jung used to say, “…while we may be the protagonist of our own lives, we are also the extras or spear carriers in some larger drama…”

What did he mean? That life…your life and mine…unfolds in ways that neither you nor I could ever completely control. In other words, we dream of doing but then discover we are simply being done. Or, as someone once put it, “We seem destined to make choices.”

Ah, the ambiguity of life. And, the secret to happiness?

Well, maybe it’s different for you, but I’m learning something of the mystery expressed in the words of Walt Whitman,

“I exist as I am, and that is enough,
If no other in the world be aware I sit content,
And if each and all be aware I sit content.
One world is aware, and by far the largest to me, and
That is myself.
So whether I come to my own today or in ten
Thousand or ten million years,
I can cheerfully take it now, or with equal
Cheerfulness, I can wait.”

Can I?

Can you?

Maybe the secret of happiness is in learning to wait. And, maybe the secret of waiting is mastering the art of losing oneself in the life that is–the only life that ever is–your life as it is right now…this present moment.

So, relax my friend and relish this moment. It’s all there is. It’s everything it needs to be. And, in the words of the poet, It is “eternity in the palm of your hand.” It is YOU in the palm of Eternity’s hand.

What could be better than this? What more could you really want?

Please do begin this meditation by making sure you are grounded & protected… if you are not grounded; you can do this quickly by visualising your feet going deep down into Mother Earth… and them becoming one with the earth… for a quick protection… visualise gold swirls all around you – from your feet right up to your head and see these gold swirls getting bigger and bigger as they continue surrounding your entire being… once you have done this… lets begin our journey with my Christmas meditation….

Take a few deep breathes in knowing they are for positivity…. In through your nose and exhale out through your mouth… letting go of any negativity you may have… feel yourself becoming nice and relaxed with each breathe you take… and know this is “YOUR” time…

In your minds eye… visualise this most amazing image of a beautiful oak tree… you may not see it straight away… just keep relaxing and this image will present itself to you… it all seems a little foggy however the more you relax – the more this image is becoming clearer… you are beginning to see this magnificent oak tree and it’s covered in snow… look around and you will notice lots of oak tree’s everywhere… truly amazing all with snow on them … they really do look like a picture…

Now slowly start walking in amongst these awesome oak trees … notice how you do not feel any cold at all yet there is snow all around even where you are walking and it’s covering the pathway… notice how you are feeling ~ so relaxed and at peace… as you continue on this journey today…

As you keep walking you can feel yourself being showered with pure love… your entire body feels so warm inside out with this love and peace and you feel so light in yourself… you have no cares, no worries at this place… none at all…

You look closer at these amazing oak trees and you see they have icicles … lots of icicles … yet still you feel so warm…

What you are seeing and experiencing right at this moment and time is almost unwordable … all you can say is “Wow!” …

Now being as this is a Christmas meditation… and as you continue walking past these beautiful trees … you begin to see something in the distance… you can not make this out so you continue walking… as you are intrigued… you begin to start to make out what is in the distance… and you feel like you are seeing things… you are not…. Trust and believe what you are seeing… as you continue to get closer, you now know what this is… who it is… it’s a loved one who has passed over and you really can not believe your eyes… you have missed this loved one so much and all you can do is smile… as they smile back at you… you keep walking towards this person and as you get to right in front of them, such a hug each of you give each other… tears begin to fall down from your face and that is okay… remember tears are for healing too… your loved one looks at you and begins to talk and says “My dear loved one, I know you miss me so… I too miss you but you have got to know; I am no longer in pain, and am happy; I am around you often and I do see when you are sad and this saddens me so; always remember we will be together one day but that time is not now… you have so much to do that you must do; never fear my beloved on as I am always near, talk to me ~ I hear you ~ and will never stop loving you”

The tears are now streaming down your face however at the same time, you feel comfort and a new strength as your beloved one has just spoke to you, a Christmas present that no one could ever give you and you have just experienced it…

You thank your beloved one and you know in your heart; they are there with you and you have listened and taken in every word… so for now it is time to come back to the hear and now and keep what your loved one has said to you in your heart and memory… and every time you feel “lost” or “sad” keep remembering what was said to you….

You begin to smile as you turn around to wave to your loved one… and are so grateful for what you have just experienced…

You begin to walk back past those magnificent oak trees whilst still smiling… and your heart feeling warm… and as you begin to get back to where you started on your journey… you feel very pleased with what you have achieved and know you can come here at anytime at all ~ remembering it is “YOUR” time….

When you are ready… and please do take your time… take another couple of breaths nice and slowly in through your nose and out through your mouth …

Now beginning to become aware of your own surroundings … and still smiling… you take wee sips of water just to keep yourself grounded…

Well done!

I do pray you have enjoyed my Christmas Meditation….
