Letting Go of 9 / 11

In my heart I feel it’s time for us Americans to decide our most important ENERGY FOCUS to carry from past tragedies like 9/11 into our future:

Should we focus on the personal hurts, the torn families, the great damage to our national sense of stability and pride?

Can we find deep emotional and spiritual closure by dwelling on or suppressing the past?

Can we transcend the pain of our dreams and loves lost by daring for a revitalized brotherhood and sisterhood in our homes, our communities, our world?

Or should we continue obsessing over endlessly seeking vengeance on old enemies to the point that we endlessly create new ones?

Can we secure our country’s borders and our citizens’ liberties by letting our naturally spirited, free-speaking, free-acting, free-thinking people be treated as suspects by the endless motley parades of suspicious military, police and political bureaucrats who would “make our world safer for us”?

Isn’t it approaching time for us all to end mourning of the dead so the sparkling possibilities of today can emerge from their hiding places beneath the rocks of our guilt, anger, fear, habitual blindness?

Do I respect the dead? Do I respect those still in sorrow? Do I respect those who have sacrificed for our country and for a more peaceful world?

Yes, I most certainly do–
but I respect the claims of no man or woman, dead or alive, rich or famous, to chain me, you or any human being on Earth to any vision of our collective future that denies the great endless spiritual growth that is everyone’s sacred birthright.

No more excuses, my friends.

Your natural claim to a more joyful, peaceful, creatively sane existence is inextricably tied up in the fulfillment of every other human being’s very same birthright.

No matter how stifled or controlled by others in the past, this vital joy of our collective human birthright is meant to push up through the ashes of the Great Crusades, the Inquisition, the Black Plague, Auschwitz, Hiroshima, Bhopal, 9/11…

We’re to water with work and bright expectation the unseen seeds of an unknown harvest now germinating in the earth. These seeds now yearn inwards and reach outwards for Divine blessing to awaken their core potential.

How can we do anything but say YES to the opportunities for good that seek our patient attention through the tragedies inescapable to all human life?

I am honoring the dead of 9/11 and the newly born every day since by knowing and trying to live by this scientific fact:

LIFE NEVER ENDS.

Your life, my life, the actual existence of everyone’s spiritual beingness, simply never ends.

It only changes shape, changes focus, changes riverbed. Changes wind current, changes fragrance, changes intensity of awareness for our true hearts’ desires…

Peace, Blessings, Happiness and Solace to you and yours–
living, dead and yet to come–
on this good day of September 11, 2012.

Picture Your Future as a Kind of Drug-Free Ecstacy…

Just imagine this picture’s antique wooden toys represent the homey, happy, bloody, crappy, triumphant peaceful nook of yours known as the 3rd dimension on good ol’ Mother Earth…

…Here on 3-D Earth is where all your battles seem to have been fought,

Where all your victories seem to have been won,

Where all your tears bitter and sweet seem to have been shed,

Where all your illusions seem to have been shattered,

Where all your courage seems to have been intensely tested,

Where all your slings and arrows of outrageous misfortune and
incredible heart-pounding hairs-breadth glad escapes
from sure doom,
death, extinction or worse
seem to have struck you,

Where all your brothers and sisters,
all your annoying, beloved, insane, ingenious,
delicious demented chuckling human family,

seems to have cursed and prayed itself into white-knuckled
red-cheeked existence,

Where all your loves seem to have sprung up with the urgency
of their sure and tender, thirsty roots,

Where you seem to have spent your entire ancient childhood in near-amnesia,
dreaming of the days you might someday,
somehow
spend more awake,
more alive and connected,
more free…

Imagine these wooden playthings seem to tell the special tale of your time-honored 3rd and 4th dimensional reality.

Here we are.

* * * * * * * * * * * * *

Now, imagine if you will, that this next special picture invites you
into what seems like
YOUR NEXT BIG STEP–
YOUR NEXT BIG LEAP–
YOUR NEXT GREAT STORY–
INTO YOUR STUNNING GOOD DESTINY.

INTO YOUR HUMAN FAMILY’S NEXT ECSTATIC HOME.

INTO YOUR NEXT PLACE OF GRACE.

Into what seems like your next peaceful nest
for exciting flights of initiation beyond simple sights and sounds,
where you can swoop into the heart and science of
Living Your True Soul…

Welcome.
You are so beautiful.
You are courageous.

Because despite what seems like any weakness to your wings
You do have the heart of the dove
You do have the eyes of the eagle.

You are remembering your desire to fly!

…When you help your neighbor,
you help your self.

When you help your self,
you help your world.

When you help your world,
you help all worlds.

Because your arrow of love that seems to fly in one direction here
pierces the Heart of the Universe
that beats profoundly into all directions.

Peace and happiness to you,

Japanese Quake Survivor Shares Crisis-Healing Meditation

Surprise Guest Columnist:

I live in Japan, near Tokyo, due south of the nuclear disaster area . . . I was inspired to write this meditation a few days after the quake struck. Other like-minded souls have been doing this exercise daily, with me. If you feel you want to, please try this.

Please share. Peace and love to all. Thank you!

“Switch your consciousness ON.
Believe in the power of MIND.

Now
Believe this.

You are a being of energy.
A being of light. You are an energy transformer.

As a being of light and an energy transformer
(When you have an idea –-> you create something = energy transformer 😉 )

You can open your self at will
And make manifest with your mind.

Many people are suffering and you may be picking up on that energy.
Are you feeling yourself drawn to the suffering, or to the calm?
You are attempting to rebalance energies within your sensitive light body.

You can transform the negative energy
into positive love energy
which will help you
and everyone else in ways that you cannot imagine.

Try this.

Stand outside if possible. In daylight.
Breath in the dark, negative fears.

In your mind, see them circulate your heart and all around your body,
All transforming into positive love energy.
All transforming into pure, clear sunlight.
Clear transformation.

Breath this love energy out while holding a strong, clear image in your mind, mentally visualising something positive.

For example, crisis-healing images:

* A map of Japan being immersed in bright, golden love energy

* The reactor cooling, the problem subsiding, the weather assisting to take any dangerous toxins out over the sea for safer processing

* Shifting tectonic plates calming, slowing, settling, ceasing to move

* Injuries healing, pains easing, acceptance gently starting; fears, confusion, shock, anger subsiding, ebbing, dissolving

* Family and friends reconnecting

* Energy, water, medical supplies and food arriving in abundance

And anything else you feel will help.

Please try to do this as many times a day as you can. As often as feels good.
Feel the exercise heal you, as you release the bad energy through your base chakra back into the earth.

Feel the sun on the crown of your head as much as you can in a day.
Relax, breath, stretch, calm, calm, calm = Your daily voice/breath/movement mantra.
While doing this, practise being the embodiment of calm.

And never, EVER doubt the power of your MIND.

Together we are one.
No matter where you are in the world.
Our power is one.”

Peace and love from one to all.
Thank you again.
