When you are busy counting your blessings, you switch your energy state from lack and limitations to abundance and manifestations. I am blessed is a declaration and a deep feeling that you trust the universe. You are always taking your mind from the repetitive cycle of looking for what’s wrong to seeing what’s right in your life by celebrating your blessings now. This powerful way of thinking and speaking has shifted my life. It uplifts your mood, it opens doors within your spirit, and takes you on a journey of bliss. Happiness is a choice by being busy declaring you are blessed so you change how you feel. You will no longer wait for circumstances to change to be blessed or happy. You are speaking it now. Shifting your mind and welcoming what’s already yours. Your attitude is the most important thing happening in your life not what’s happening. Adjust your mental thoughts by calming blessings now. There’s so much good happening in your life. There’s things you might not even notice because your mind has made you forget what’s real. The truth is, you are blessed. You have always been. You just choose to recognize it when “something happens!” That way of living only takes away from your everyday happiness because you’re waiting for things to happen to feel blessed! Celebrate now. Count your blessings. Look around you. Look inside you. You are extremely blessed!

Pāli Word a Day for October 1, 2019 — pipāsavinaya — the dispelling of thirst

Aniccā vata saṅkhārā,
uppādavayadhammino.
Uppajjitvā nirujjhanti,
tesaṃ vūpasamo sukho.

Impermanent truly are compound things,
by nature arising and passing away.
If they arise and are extinguished,
their eradication brings happiness.

Close your eyes and visualize your divine beauty. Release all toxic energy and take in the energy of love. Draw a picture in your mind where you are complete. See your higher-self ascending to a place of peace. Walk with the great masters in a circle of protection. Let go of the old ways of fear and control. Surrender to love, beauty, and peace…

Yato yato sammasati

Go with Grand water Goddess trine flows

Tara Greene,Tarot Reader, Astrology Psychic

Yes Neptune and Lilith are having a soul connecting tantric dreaming conversation, about the spiritual misuse of women since Lilith refused to be lower than Adam. The patriarchs backlashed in fear of woman’s innate superior spiritual emotional sexual and mental powers.

Athena the warrior Goddess and first Goddess to be rebranded a motherless born woman is in deep dark sexual intense Scorpio and trining the North Node of Fate at 13 degrees Cancer. The North Node is conjunct to Sirius which the US hooked itself up to, by having their Independence Day July 4. Sirius is the brightest and most beautiful star in the heavens. Sirius is home to the spiritual entities who many cultures say created earthlings from genetic experiments. They are spiritual helpers. Sirius also is related to Isis the Great Egyptians Goddess who resurrects her beloved Osiris who is also Sirius.

There’s lots of sexual politics in…

Pāli Word a Day for September 29, 2019
dukkhanirodha — the cessation of suffering

Khīṇaṃ purāṇaṃ nava
natthi sambhavaṃ,
virattacittāyatike bhavasmiṃ.
Te khīṇabījā, avirūḷhichandā.
Nibbanti dhīrā yathāyaṃ padīpo. 

When past conditioning is released
and no fresh one produced,
the mind no longer seeks for future birth.
The seed consumed, cravings no more arise.
Such-minded wise ones cease like [the flame of] this lamp.

Parable | You Can’t Access Great Wisdom Without The Frequency

Nā Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

The Story:
A Guruji wanted to learn all the great secrets from the Master Babaji. So the Master Babaji agreed to teach him. He said to Guruji, come show up at my doorstep each morning and I will teach you all you need to know. Excited Guruji left.

The next morning, he packed all he needed to make the 4 hour trek up the mountain as he did the day before. Arriving at the Master Babaji’s doorstep with an offering, he sat down and waited. The Master Babaji came out of his meditation and opened the door to meet the Guruji, they spoke about many things, then did a meditation, but no secrets were revealed. He climbed back down the mountain disappointed, but then by the end of the 4 hours it took to get back home, he realized that it was normal that the Master Babaji would not reveal to him any secrets the first day. So, he resolved to get a good night’s sleep and get an early start the next morning.

The next morning, once again, before sunrise, he left the comforts of his home, family and small village and started the 4 hour trek up the mountain to visit the Master Babaji. Once again, the Master Babaji greeted him with kindness, and asked him to fetch some water with which he warmed by the fire and made hot tea for both of them. As they sat he spoke of the arid climate, the herds of animals that he could see in the spring and how the stars looked at night looked during the new moon cycle. Then they did a meditation as they did the day before and then, the Guruji knew from the Master’s gesture, that once again, their time had ended and it was time to go. The Guruji needed to get home before dark and so started on the long trek home, once again enjoying the Master’s company, but once again, was not given any secrets by the Master Guruji.

And so, he did the same thing the next day. And the Master told him tales about a White Tiger, a Red Dragon and a Monkey that could fly, and again they drank tea, meditated, and again no great secrets were revealed. This continued for years.

On the last day of the 8th year, the Master Babaji said to the Guruji, “We are done. Now you know all the great secrets. Go out and teach.”

“But Babaji!” questioned Guruji in opposition, “Do I know all the great secrets? All we have been talking about are the herds of animals, stars and celestial bodies, fairy tale stories and how to make herbal remedies and tea. What great secrets have been revealed to me?”

The Master Babaji responded, “As you have seen me, and just by being with me for all these 8 years, your body has slowly adjusted to my frequency. This is the frequency where all great wisdom exists. You are now enlightened. All will be revealed to you as you go out and teach.”

The Punchline:
What’s the moral of the story?   You can’t access great wisdom without the frequency.

lovely dogs

September 28 2019 is a new Moon in Libra. Air sign Libra rules the 7th house of marriage and partnership, making this an ideal lunar cycle to focus on relationships. The new Moon, Sun, Mercury, and Venus are all in Libra bringing opportunities for balance and harmony with everyone.

Venus sextiles Jupiter in Sagittarius to lighten up, enjoy life, and be social. New friendships or a romance that begin during this month are fortunate in the long run, and bring out the best in both parties. Benefits can come through friends, with many occasions to give as well as receive. Libra is ruled by planet Venus, adding a cooperative sense of charm, ease, and generosity.

Venus squares Saturn conjunct Pluto in Capricorn. For some, it may be over due to reevaluate close relationships. Adjustments can be made to unload and clear the air, then rebuild. Contact me to schedule relationship…

Pāli Word a Day for September 28, 2019 — nippapañca — that which is without proliferation

Anekajātisaṃsāraṃ
sandhāvissaṃ, anibbisaṃ
gahakāraṃ gavesanto;
dukkhā jāti punappunaṃ.
Gahakāraka! Diṭṭhosi.

Puna gehaṃ na kāhasi.
Sabbā te phāsukā bhaggā,
gahakūṭaṃ visaṅkhataṃ.
Visaṅkhāragataṃ cittaṃ:
taṇhānaṃ khayamajjhagā.

Through countless births in the cycle of existence
I have run, not finding
although seeking the builder of this house;
and again and again I faced the suffering of new birth.
Oh housebuilder! Now you are seen.

You shall not build a house again for me.
All your beams are broken,
the ridgepole is shattered.
The mind has become freed from conditioning:
the end of craving has been reached.

Neuromedicine | Human brain hard-wired for rural tranquillity

Nā Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Humans may be hard-wired to feel at peace in the countryside and confused in cities – even if they were born and raised in an urban area.

According to preliminary results of a study by scientists at Exeter University, an area of the brain associated with being in a calm, meditative state lit up when people were shown pictures of rural settings. But images of urban environments resulted in a significant delay in reaction, before a part of the brain involved in processing visual complexity swung into action as the viewer tried to work out what they were seeing.  […]

The Potential Health Benefits of Purple Corn

Nā Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Crooked Bear Creek Organic Herbs

Purple corn is fast approaching classification as a functional food—an integral component of the diet that provides energy and essential nutrients. Researchers in the fields of food and nutrition are intensely searching for functional foods in almost every corner of the world and from a diversity of plants. Examples include purple corn (Zea mays L., Poaceae), green tea (Camellia sinensis [L.] Kuntze, Theaceae), soy isoflavones (Glycine max [L.] Merr., Fabaceae), various nuts, plus various other natural substances in the human diet containing antioxidant and other substances with alleged or proven potential disease-preventive properties.

Purple corn (frequently referred to as blue corn) is botanically the same species as regular table corn. Yet by a twist of nature, this corn produces kernels with one of the deepest shades of purple found anywhere in the plant “kingdom.” Research has shown that purple corn contains cell-protecting antioxidants with the ability to…

Pāli Word a Day for September 25, 2019 — sabbaganthappamocana — freedom from all bonds

Sabbo ādīpito loko,
sabbo loko padhūpito;
Sabbo pajjalito loko,
sabbo loko pakampito.

Akampitaṃ apajjalitaṃ,
aputhujjanasevitaṃ,
agati yattha mārassa —
tattha me nirato mano.

The entire world is in flames,
the entire world is going up in smoke;
the entire world is burning,
the entire world is vibrating.

But that which does not vibrate or burn,
which is experienced by the noble ones,
where death has no entry–
in that my mind delights.
