Seeds for Meditation ~ Illuminations …

fire_dance

As we grow older, what is truly important in life becomes more apparent.
What is ultimately important is that we gain a living awareness that we are only here for a very temporary amount of time.  An awareness of your finite existence acts as a guiding torch, illuminating the real from the unreal.
Through the darkness of normal thinking, we mistakenly find value in things that are actually empty of any real substance. We unconsciously connect our life-force to such things, until one day they are ripped away from us, painfully disrupting our sense of satisfaction and contentment.
A genuine experience of that which is infinite, that which is non-dying, becomes a brilliant light within us, a guiding torch revealing the real truth of who we are and what we are here to do.
This ‘yogic discovery’ is what activates our happiness, it gives us vitality and strength, and ultimately it brings us into an unspeakable bliss.
“Mindfulness of death is a nectar-like medicine that restores you to health and a sentinel that watches over the discipline of your practice, never letting it stray into distractions.” -Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
It is not important what clothes you wear, the culture you come from, the belief system you subscribe to. It is not important how long you’ve practiced or how much experience you have.
What is important is that you enliven your body and mind so that you are no longer weighted by the negative gravity of the environment around you. It is important that the vitality inside of you is more powerful than the pressure outside of you.
It is important that you gain enough positive momentum that allows you to easily do what you need to do in order to consistently feel good, to smile, and to uplift those around you.
It is important that you enjoy your life and thus move swiftly in the direction of what you came here to do…and that requires powerful energy.
Your internal energy and outward projection must be stronger than any adversity, any stress, any depression, any insecurity. This is why group energy and immersions are so very important. They are significant enough in time and powerful enough in impact to completely shift the dominant energy in ones life.
What is difficult and seemingly impossible to do alone, becomes completely attainable together. We elevate ourselves above our obstacles and excel forward with smiles on our faces, brightness in our eyes.

Meditation ~ Types of Meditation

falun dafa

There are so many different types of Meditation. You can find the one that’s right for you. To get your search started, here are six types of meditation you can try.

1. Breath Watching Meditation: Can meditating be as simple as paying attention to your breath for a few minutes? You bet. Relax in whatever position works best for you, close your eyes and start to pay attention to your breathing. Breathing through your nose gets your diaphragm involved and gets oxygen all the way to the bottom of your lungs. As your mind wanders, just re-focus your attention on the air going in and out of your nose. Just do this for several minutes, or longer as you get used to it.

2. An Empty Mind Meditation: Meditating can create a kind of “awareness without object,” an emptying of all thoughts from your mind. The techniques for doing this involve sitting still, often in a “full lotus” or cross-legged position, and letting the mind go silent on its own. It can be difficult, particularly since any effort seems to just cause more business in the mind.

3. Walking Meditations: This one gets the body involved. It can be outside or simply as a back and forth pacing in a room. Pay attention to the movement of your legs and breathing and body as you walk, and to the feeling of your feet contacting the ground. When your mind wanders, just keep bringing it back to the process of walking and breathing. Meditating outside in this way can be difficult because of the distractions. If you do it outside, find a quiet place with level ground.

4. Mindfulness Meditation: A practice Buddhists call Vipassana or Insight Meditation, mindfulness is the art of becoming deeply aware of what is here right now. You focus on what’s happening in and around you at this very moment, and become aware of all the thoughts and feelings that are taking your energy from moment to moment. You can start by watching your breath, and then move your attention to the thoughts going through your mind, the feelings in your body, and even the sounds and sights around you. The key is to watch without judging or analyzing.

5. Simple Mantra Meditation: Many people find it easier to keep their mind from wandering if they concentrate on something specific. A mantra can help. This is a word or phrase you repeat as you sit in meditation, and is chosen for you by an experienced master in some traditions. If you are working on this alone, you can use any word or phrase that works for you, and can choose to either repeat it aloud or in your head as you meditate.

6. Meditating on a Concept: Some meditative practices involve contemplation of an idea or scenario. An example is the “meditation on impermanence,” in which you focus on the impermanent nature of all things, starting with your thoughts and feelings as they come and go. In the Buddhist “meditation on the corpse,” you think about a body in the ground, as it slowly rots away and is fed on by worms. The technique is used to guide you to an understanding that your rationalizing mind might not bring you to.

There are many other meditations you can try, such as the “meditation on loving-kindness” or “object” meditation, and even meditating using brain wave entrainment products. Each type has its own advantages and effects. For this reason, you may find that at different times and for different purposes you want to use several different types of meditation.

 

MEDITATION FOR CESSATION OF THE FLOOD AND ASSISTANCE FOR THE PEOPLE OF JAMMU AND KASHMIR …

Tibetan-children
We are chanting the Green Tara mantra for the people of India and Pakistan and for the region …

In Tibetan, we chant “Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soha” … In Sanskrit, it is “Oṃ Tāre Tuttāre Ture Svāhā”.

Tibetan culture, and some others, green is considered to include all the other colors.

The practice of Green Tara helps to overcome fear and anxiety, but devotees also believe that she can grant wishes, eliminate suffering of all kinds and bring happiness.

When called upon, she instantaneously saves us from eight specific calamities. (Another lineage describes 16.) The First Dalai Lama lists the 8, and interprets them as representative of corresponding defects, flaws, or obscurations: 1) lions and pride 2) wild elephants and delusions 3) forest fires and hatred 4) snakes and envy 5) robbers and fanatical views 6) prisons and avarice 7) floods and lust 8) demons and doubt.

MANTRA:
OM TARE TUTTARE TURE SOHA

OM represents Tara’s sacred body, speech and mind.

TARE means liberating from all discontent.

TUTTARE means liberating from the eight fears, the external dangers, but mainly from the internal dangers, the delusions.

TURE means liberating from duality; it shows the true cessation of confusion.

SOHA means “may the meaning of the mantra take root in my mind.”

Seeds for Meditation ~ “A Newly Rich Life With Yourself,” by Martha Nussbaum

O WildeDo not despise your inner world. That is the first and most general piece of advice I would offer. Our society is very outward-looking, very taken up with the latest new object, the latest piece of gossip, the latest opportunity for self-assertion and status. But we all begin our lives as helpless babies, dependent on others for comfort, food, and survival itself. And even though we develop a degree of mastery and independence, we always remain alarmingly weak and incomplete, dependent on others and on an uncertain world for whatever we are able to achieve.

As we grow, we all develop a wide range of emotions responding to this predicament: fear that bad things will happen and that we will be powerless to ward them off; love for those who help and support us; grief when a loved one is lost; hope for good things in the future; anger when someone else damages something we care about. Our emotional life maps our incompleteness: A creature without any needs would never have reasons for fear, or grief, or hope, or anger. But for that very reason we are often ashamed of our emotions, and of the relations of need and dependency bound up with them. […] People don’t know how to deal with their own emotions, or to communicate them to others. When they are frightened, they don’t know how to say it, or even to become fully aware of it. Often they turn their own fear into aggression. Often, too, this lack of a rich inner life catapults them into depression in later life. We are all going to encounter illness, loss, and aging, and we’re not well prepared for these inevitable events by a culture that directs us to think of externals only, and to measure ourselves in terms of our possessions of externals.

What is the remedy of these ills? A kind of self-love that does not shrink from the needy and incomplete parts of the self, but accepts those with interest and curiosity, and tries to develop a language with which to talk about needs and feelings. Storytelling plays a big role in the process of development. As we tell stories about the lives of others, we learn how to imagine what another creature might feel in response to various events. At the same time, we identify with the other creature and learn something about ourselves. As we grow older, we encounter more and more complex stories — in literature, film, visual art, music — that give us a richer and more subtle grasp of human emotions and of our own inner world.

So my second piece of advice, closely related to the first, is: Read a lot of stories, listen to a lot of music, and think about what the stories you encounter mean for your own life and lives of those you love. In that way, you will not be alone with an empty self; you will have a newly rich life with yourself, and enhanced possibilities of real communication with others.

—–

Discussion about enjoying A Newly Rich Life With Yourself:

1 – What do you understand by a self-love that does not shrink from the needy and incomplete parts of the self?

2 – Can you share a personal experience of a time when you discovered a newly rich life with yourself?

3 – What works for you in relating to yourself at a deeper level?

 

A Reflective Moment At Summer’s End

seaside tea time

“In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me lay an invincible summer.” — Albert Camus


As the seasons begin to change, and we move from summer to fall, spend the time this Holiday Monday to reflect on the year so far. What progress have you made this year toward the goals and intentions you set at the beginning of the year? Reflect on your thoughts- have you been gentle with yourself, or punished yourself for things still unaccomplished? Have unexpected surprises come and pulled you off course? Are there lessons to be learned from from those experiences?

Take a few minutes to reflect and be quiet now. Sit quietly and listen to your inner wisdom. See what thoughts enter your mind about what you truly want the remainder of this year to become. Write it down so that you can infuse your consciousness with these intentions.

Seeds for Meditation ~ On Life

consciousness of buddha

“Life is a great battlefield. Life is a conquest. To live is to fight for the ideal and the goal. Life is a series of awakenings. You must conquer your mind and the senses. These are the real enemies. You must conquer internal and external nature. You must conquer your environments, old evil habits, old evil Samskaras, evil thoughts and evil Vasanas. You must fight against the antagonistic dark forces. You must resist the forces of degeneration. The greatest victory is the victory over the turbulent mind. The greatest battle is the inner Adhyatmic battle. The greatest hero is one who has conquered the mind.”

– Swami Sivananda

 

Seeds for Meditation ~ Consciousness

Indian sunset

“Breathing happens; sensations, feelings, and emotions come and go; thoughts pass through the mind; and stories about our experiences form, but the only continuous, unbroken, and always present thing is consciousness itself. Consciousness is that which, in us, is aware of all these changing phenomena. This is the nondual truth of existence.” ~ Jim Dreaver

Meditation ~ New Moon in Virgo

Aloha Family of Light !

As we step into this next  beautiful integration phase of  the Astrological sign turning towards Virgo,  we also welcome a powerful Manifestation New Moon cycle full of magic and promise.

We discover the essential task of Virgo in uniting our body, mind and spirit so that we become who we incarnated to be. This gives birth to our own savior–our inner Spirit,  integrating through self-knowledge–knowing who we are and who we are not. It has a lot to do with self-acceptance as well gifting love and complete acceptance of who we are.

~ YOU ARE THE LIGHTHOUSE ~

Virgo asks us to give that love and acceptance to ourselves, instead of patriarchy’s twisting of Virgo’s gift into self-criticism and impossible perfectionism.

A deep awakening of the energy coursing within our cellular memories the foundation and make-up of our divine temples of the body unearth the currents of magic that ebb and flow along in tune with the moon’s rhythm. As we combine this powerful force uniting them as one we co-create positive change and transform your life through the mysteries of the new moon.

Seeds for Meditation ~ Bowing Down In Prayer

moon river I bow down to all the masters whose fragrance has touched this earth.
I bow down to the inherent wisdom of life itself.
I bow down to the infinite intelligence of consciousness.
I bow down to the love that includes everything.
I bow down to the simplicity of awakeness, always here.
I bow down.

Translation:

Oh Saints, the purifying pool of Ram Das is sublime

Under the protection of the Creator, no harm can come to me

Chanting the Lord’s name, Har, Har, my mistakes are washed away

Whomsoever bathes in the nectar tank is acclaimed all over the world;

The desires of that person’s mind are fulfilled

Bathing (in this sacredness) the mind becomes peaceful, as it meditates on God

Those who bathe here, they liberate and bless themselves and all their generations

Oh Saints, the purifying pool of Ram Das is sublime

One who bathes in the pool of the Saints achieves the state of supreme bliss

There is no death, there is no coming and going;

There is only meditating on the name of the Lord, Har, Har

He alone knows the wisdom of the Lord, on whom this Lord extends merciful kindness

Baba Nanak seeks the sanctuary of God; All his cares and worries are dispelled

Those who bathe here, they liberate and bless themselves and all their generations

Oh Saints, the purifying pool of Ram Das is sublime

Seeds For Meditation ~ The Bodhisattva Vow

buddha radiantAs I develop the awakening mind I praise the Buddha as they shine
I bow before you as I travel my path to join your ranks,
I make my full time task
For the sake of all beings I seek
The enlightened mind that I know I’ll reap
Respect to Shantideva and all the others
Who brought down the Dharma for sisters and brothers.

I give thanks for this world as a place to learn
And for this human body that I’m glad to have earned
And my deepest thanks to all sentient beings
For without them there would be no place to learn what I’m seeing
There’s nothing here that’s not been said before
But I put it down now so I’ll be sure
To solidify my own views and I’ll be glad if it helps
Anyone else out too.

If others disrespect me or give me flack
I’ll stop and think before I react
Knowing that they’re going through insecure stages
I’ll take the opportunity to exercise patience
I’ll see it as a chance to help the other person
Nip it in the bud before it can worsen.
A change for me to be strong and sure
As I think on the Buddhas who have come before
As I praise and respect the good they’ve done
Knowing only love can conquer in every situation
We need other people in order to create
The circumstances for the learning that we’re here to generate
Situations that bring up our deepest fears
So we can work to release them until they’re cleared
Therefore, it only makes sense
To thank our enemies despite their intent.

The Bodhisattva path is one of power and strength
A strength from within to go the length
Seeing others are as important as myself
I strive for a happiness of mental wealth
With the interconnectedness that we share as one
Every action that we take affects everyone
So in deciding for what a situation calls
There is a path for the good for all
I try to make my every action for that highest good
With the altruistic wish to achieve Buddhahood
So I pledge here before everyone who’s listening
To try to make my every action for the good of all beings
For the rest of my lifetimes and even beyond
I vow to do my best to do no harm
And in times of doubt I can think on the Dharma
And the enlightened ones who’ve graduated Samsara.

Seeds for Meditation ~ Self-Awareness

Herman-Damar1

 

“You must be ready to accept the possibility that there is a limitless range of awareness for which we now have no words; that awareness can expand beyond range of your ego, your self, your familiar identity, beyond everything you have learned, beyond your notions of space and time, beyond the differences which usually separate people from each other and from the world around them.”  ~ Tibetan Book of the Dead

 

POWER MEDITATION ~ Part Two

blooming rose love

Set your intention for your meditation.  It doesn’t matter what that intention is. Just keep in mind that any good you intend for others will have a small good effect on you; and whatever harm you intend for others will have a huge negative effect upon you.  Please remember we’re all in this lifetime together to help each other to the best of our ability.

There is an ancient philosophy in both the East and the West teaching us that twenty percent (20%) of all the good will we intend for others will be visited upon us.  The other eighty percent (80%) is visited upon the ones for whom we pray and meditate.  If we meditate and pray for beneficial things, everybody receives beneficial things in those proportions.

The other side of that coin is that twenty percent (20%) of all harmful things we intend to do unto others in our prayers and meditations actually causes them some harm.  But, the other eighty percent (80%) of that harm is visited upon us.  We really do unto ourselves whatever we attempt to do unto others.  We really do help ourselves by helping others.

The first thing we do as we start our Power Meditation is to decide what we want to accomplish with our meditation.  In the beginning, we set simple goals to relax more, go deeper and we pray for the benefit of others.  As we progress from step to step, we set our intentions for higher purposes.  We seek out our spirit guides, guardian angels, master teachers, self realization and realization of the Divine.

Set your intention, breathe deeply and relax.

You may close your eyes if you wish.  You may sit, stand or recline if you wish.  You may practice at any time, in any place and for long as you wish.  Experience teaches us that three (3x) to five (5x) practice sessions a day is just about ideal.  More or less is less and less effective. Experience teaches us that twenty (20 min) minutes per session is just about optimal.  More or less time in each session becomes less and less effective.  If you want to practice an hour a day, three twenty minute sessions are far more effective than one single one-hour session.

Set your intention, breath deeply and relax.

Relax your whole body more and more.  Start with your feet, toes, and ankles.  Will them to relax more and more.  Consciously feel your toes, feet and ankles relaxing.  Continue breathing deeply and relax until you feel the warmth in your feet toes and ankles as they relax more and more.

Relax your lower legs, knees and upper legs.  Will them to relax more and more.  Let go of any tension and consciously relax your knees, upper and lower legs.  Continue breathing deeply and relax until you feel the warmth as your upper and lower legs and your knees relax and the blood flow through them increases.

Set your intention, breathe deeply and relax.  Relax your upper and lower legs, knees, ankles and feet.

Relax your hips, your abdomen and chest.  Let all tension go.  Relax your hips and torso and Continue breathing deeply and relax until you feel the warmth flow through your body, down your legs, through your knees and ankles down into your feet and toes.  Feel your body and legs relax more and more.

Relax your fingers, hands, wrists, lower and upper arms, elbows and shoulders.  Make a conscious effort to let all tension go.  Intentionally allow your muscles to relax and Continue breathing deeply and relax until you feel the warmth in your fingers, hands, wrists, lower arms, elbows, upper arms and shoulders as your circulation improves.

Set your intention, breathe deeply and relax.  Relax your whole body from your shoulders to your toes.  Continue breathing deeply and relax until you feel the warmth and relaxation from your shoulders all the way down to your toes.

Relax your shoulders and your neck.  Relax your jaw and your face.  From the tip of your toes to the top of your head, relax, Continue breathing deeply and relax until you Continue breathing deeply and relax until you feel the warmth and relax.  Practice this two to four times a day (2-4x) for ten to twenty minutes (10-20 min) each session for the next seven (7) days.

If you must practice for less time and/or for fewer sessions, it may take longer than one week for you to master this technique.  You do the best you can and practice to the best of your ability when you can.  It’s perfectly O.K. to take things more slowly.

If you are driven to practice for more time and/or more sessions, please consider spending that extra time practicing compassion and praying or communing with the Divine.  To spent this extra time in meditation practice may work out well.  It may also slow your progress.  Do the best you can and prepare for the next lesson as best you can.

Set your intention, breathe deeply and relax.  Relax your whole body from the top of your head to the tip of your toes.  Breathe deeply and relax more and more.  As you inhale, relax your face and your shoulders.  As you exhale, relax your shoulders, and the rest of your body. Breathe deeply and relax.  Feel these waves of relaxation move down from the top of your head to your shoulders, and from your shoulders all the way through your body to your feet.  Continue breathing deeply and relax.

CONCLUSION

This concludes Part One of the teaching materials for the Power Meditation technique.  Please practice this much of the technique two to three times (2 – 3x) daily for fifteen to twenty minutes (15 – 20 Min) for best results for one week or until you can master this technique.  Set your intention for your meditation, breathe deeply and relax to the best of your ability.  Continue to relax more and more as you breathe more deeply and relax more and more.

In the next nine lessons you’ll learn nine more skills to improve your life and deepen your mediation.  The complete ten skills are:

    Compassion
    Integrity
    Respectfulness
    Self-control
    Charity
    Purity
    Contentment
    Moderation
    Contemplation
    Devotion

The ten steps to the Power Meditation, also taught as the Ten Powers Of Choice, start with the relaxation skills given in Part One.

 

POWER MEDITATION ~ PART ONE

blooming rose love

COMPASSION

Compassion is called “non-violence” (Ahimsa) in the Eastern tradition and is sometimes relegated to speaking only of “non-injury” or “non-agitation.”  But compassion is much more than any of these.  Compassion is a basic approach to life that is unconditionally accepting, forgiving and loving.

Compassion is a goal and becoming compassionate is a process.  We seek progress as we become more and more compassionate.  We do not seek eternal and immediate perfection.  We seek progress.  We work each day at becoming more and more compassionate in every way.  Thus we make progress.

COMPASSION MEANS:

1.    Do no harm to yourself
2.    Do no harm to another
3.    Do no harm to animals
4.    Do no harm to plants
5.    Do no harm to the planet

Compassion means to do no harm to anything, anybody, anytime, anywhere.  Compassion is a state of being where we totally accept everything and everybody exactly as they are.  It’s a state where we forgive everybody and everything for all the harm caused to us or perceived to have been caused to us.  It’s a state of unconditional love for all things and all people.

Compassion is an ideal to which we aspire to the best of our ability each and every day.  When we attain this ideal, we become established in God Consciousness.  To become established in anything means that becomes our normal state.  Most of us are established in selfishness, greed, envy and self-importance.  As we practice compassion day by day these things fall away from us and we become established in higher and higher states, more accepting, forgiving and loving states.  We make progress.

COMPASSION OPERATES ON MANY LEVELS:

On the physical level we practice to cause no harm to ourselves and others.  When we observe ourselves causing intentional harm, we stop and we evaluate the cause behind this behavior.   When we observe ourselves causing unintentional harm. we stop and we evaluate the cause behind this behavior.  We evaluate this in a state of contemplation and meditation.  We root out the cause and we change our behavior.  As we do this, we become more compassionate.  That’s Physical Compassion.

On the intentional level of our being we desire to be compassionate in all things and with all people.  We daily affirm to ourselves that we are becoming more compassionate, more accepting, more forgiving and more loving of all people and all things.  This includes ourselves and the Divine.  As we do this, we become more and more compassionate.  That’s Intentional Compassion.

On the verbal level we practice speaking accepting, forgiving, loving and compassionate things.  We avoid speaking accusing, resentful, cutting, hurtful and insulting words.  We avoid speaking any words hatefully and with cruelty.  When we cannot do this, we avoid speaking or we change the subject and move on to something else.  As we do this, we become more and more compassionate.  That’s Verbal Compassion.

On the emotional level whenever we feel anger welling up within us, we transmute it into peace and calm.  Whenever we feel fear or anxiety, we transmute it into inner strength.  Whenever we feel sorrow or sadness, we transmute it into happiness.  As we do this, we become more and more compassionate with ourselves and others.  That’s Emotional Compassion.

On the psychological level, we resolve to play no games with ourselves or others.  We resolve to stop deceiving ourselves and others.  We drop our false images of ourselves and we become more and more real, more and more who we truly are.  We stop playing games and appearing to be something other than what we really are.  As we do this, we become more and more compassionate.  That’s Psychological Compassion.

On the mental level, we make a considerable effort to accept, forgive and love.  We make a conscious decision to accept, forgive and love more today than we did yesterday.  In every situation we face,  we intentionally and consciously decide to accept more and more, forgive more and more and love more and more.  As we do this, we become more and more compassionate.  That’s Mental Compassion.

On the spiritual level, we meditate and pray for others.  We meditate that they may obtain more compassion in their lives.  We pray they will find it in their hearts to be more compassionate with the people, plants and animals in their lives.  As we do this, we become more and more compassionate.  That’s Spiritual Compassion.

This the OM (or AUM) symbol used to end each lesson.  It’s a three-letter glyph of the Sanskrit voiced or unvoiced sounds for Ah – Oh – Mm.  The symbol approximates the sound of the Divine Creation we hear in deep meditation.  The more we meditate the sound of OM comes closer and closer to this reality.  Eventually we become washed in this sound most of the time.  That’s a sign of Enlightenment or Self-Realization.  In time we become “established in this sound.”  That means we hear the “Divine Voice” all the time and we become “God Realized.”

Within this sound of OM, the Divine speaks to us in many voices: parent, child, son, daughter, father, mother, friend and lover.  We can also enter this sound to travel wherever we want within the creation and do wondrous things.  So, this symbol is a reminder to listen to the “Voice of the Divine” within you.

These skills alone, if used on a daily basis for fifteen to twenty minutes two or three times a day, will eventually lead to deeper and deeper states of meditation.  This will be evidenced by the acquisition of the sound of OM more quickly during your meditation and the ability to hear OM during times when you are not meditating.  This process may take several lifetimes.

 

SEEDS FOR MEDITATION … Your Vision

mandalaeyeYou have sole ownership of your vision. And the Universe will give you what you want within your vision.  What happens with most people is that they muddy their vision with “reality”.  Their vision becomes full of not only what they want but what everybody else thinks about what they want, too.  Your work is to clarify and purify your vision so that the vibration that you are offering can then be answered.  — Abraham

 

AMAZING MEDITATION: Brain Sound Dopamin Booster Pineal Gland

This is a blissful amazing meditation,it activates the pineal gland and boost some dopamine in the brain you might feel some headache at the beginning from the frequencies but it will subside if you continuously meditate with this blisscoded sound.  Please share your experience with this meditation video … and Thanx for Watching.

Dopamine is produced in several areas of the brain, including the substantia nigra and the ventral tegmental area. It is a neurohormone that is released by the hypothalamus. Its action is as a hormone that is an inhibitor or prolactin release from the anterior lobe of the pituitary.

Dopamine signals pleasure, arousal, concentration and is at the base of the “reward” system, by which our brain determines if an action has had good results and should be repeated as an habit. This function is responsible for addiction, as drugs who increase the effect of dopamine send false reward signals. ADD is caused by a lack of dopamine, resulting in a lack of concentration.
It also has a role in motricity, sending out orders to the muscles. It’s most noticeable when that function fails, as in Parkingson’s disease.

Did you know that when you’re in love, dopamine gives you the same feeling as when you would use cocaine? Every time you see your love, you get a shot of dopamine and it’s addictive. Everyone who has been in love knows they wanted to see the one they were in love with again and again and again.

But when you are in a relationship for a longer period, let’s say about two years,  your body doesn’t produce as much dopamine than it did in the beginning.  The feeling of being in love slowly changed in loving him or her.

When you eat healthy, you’ll probably get enough vitamin B6 and magnesium.  Those two essential amino-acid building blocks together make your body produce dopamine, so make sure you consume the right foods so your body receives enough of these essential minerals and vitamins.

Depending on your interest you might use this music in your relaxation music playlist, as yoga music or as meditation music. You might also use it as music while you’re studying, working (mentally, creatively), reading, writing, while thinking or reflecting, dreaming, reviewing, making future plans.  Some use it as Sleep Music.  Call it chill out, ambient, New Age, instrumental, or background music.   Enjoy the experience!

 

Finding The Key To Body Health and Mental Brightness

pohaku towerWithin every human being is a fire.

That fire is responsible for your digestion, your metabolim and your intelligence. When the fire is disturbed, it causes inflammatory responses in the body and anger in the mind. 

We could say that all of human health is dependent on the health of this fire within your organism. It can either burn you, or it can make you as bright as the sun. 

Just as the sun emits a radiance, when the human being is filled with life-force, illumination and love, the magnetic field emits a radiance. This radiance gives supreme clarity, luster of the eyes and skin, warmth of the heart, and a powerful healing presence.

It is Time to activate your radiance … to be experiential and thoroughly transformed.

 

Seeds For Meditation ~ Words From A Wise Woman

green streamI knew a Wise Woman

And she said to me

That the river would mold me

And the wild wind would cool me

That the trickster the coyote

He would fool me

That father sun would warm me

Mother earth would clothe me

Grandmother moon would greet me

And of the old ways she would teach me

Wise woman, she told me

To always walk lightly

Tread the earth ever gently

Lovingly so preciously

And take from her sparingly

She said, to share with others

What you have learned from me

Be still and breathe, ever patiently

For the web of life

Has woven what is to be

But you must still chose

Your own path, you will see

And lastly, the wise woman said to me

To listen to the wise one

That dwells within me

To walk my path in balance

Is to be free

More than just words

So mote it be

WEEKLY WORDWIDE PEACE MEDITATION

spiritual globeBelow is a Prayer and Meditation for Peace. I invite you to read this holy message and hold the energy of Peace and Love for our Holy Mother Earth. Our Planet can move toward restorative justice- we just need to hold to the Truth! We are One Being and We all want Peace to Reign Supreme in our World.

Hold Sacred Space – Envision Peace…

Hold sacred space several times throughout the day and envision Peace. Peace and healing for all individuals and peace and healing for our Holy Mother Earth. Now feel the Peace and Love well up inside of your body. Listen as it speaks its Truth to you. Feel yourself embrace accept and embody Peace. Rest in your forgiveness of all others. Become the energy of Peace and send it out to all beings and all of the warring nations and to our very own blessed Planet.

Daily affirm that there is enough of everything necessary to sustain all of life. Imagine that there is now equal distribution of all goods, including enough clean foods and nourishments, enough medicines healers’ medical equipment and support teams, enough clean water that is always available, dependable shelter, solar systems and wind energy. Affirm that there are enough of all life giving structures and systems that will support and sustain all human beings, including animals, and the biosphere throughout the world.

Claim that the political parties leaders and governments of the world are working together to create and uphold global harmony and peace. Affirm that everyone and everything that appears to be anything other than peace has transmuted transformed transcended into Harmony Joy Love and Peace.

Envision a world full of compassionate loving people who deeply embrace and accept each other’s race, religious, cultural and political beliefs, their gender, their looks and sexual preferences, the level of their education and their current socio-economic conditions.

Open your heart space and call forth the protection and healing of all women and children living in an active war zone. Open your heart space and call forth the protection and healing of all men who live in an active war zone and those men who are active participants of war.

Envision now the individual and collective healing energy of love light and deep peace and see it penetrate embrace and blanket all warring lands as it heals the deep sense of separation that is felt within the hearts and minds of all.

I call out to the lands and infuse the very grounds of Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Syria, Lebanon, Somalia, Afghanistan, Israel, Palestine, Gaza, Hamas, Libya, Sudan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Congo, the CARS (Central African Republic), Egypt, North and South Korea, South American and Mexico (drug wars), Ukraine and Russia, with DEEP PEACE. I include in this call for Peace, any of the forgotten lands or nations here not mentioned.

Let us now meditate on healing the very ground we walk on the air that we breathe the water we drink the foods we eat and heal the hearts and minds of us all as we move along the path toward realizing Peace in our lifetime.

Thích Nhất Hạnh said that “peace is every step”. So allow Peace to literally breathe you in and out each day. Remember that the Peace we demonstrate each day is in the reflection of every step we take.

Peace takes Practice Peace takes Effort Peace is Now.

“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.” – Mother Theresa (1910-1997)

Resonance/Cymatics ~ The Six Tones of Creation

Sleep or meditate with these frequencies playing.  These Solfeggio frequencies make up the sacred Solfeggio scale:

UT — 396 Hz
Intent: turning grief into joy, liberating guilt & fear

This frequency liberates the energy and has beneficial effects on feelings of guilt. It cleanses the feeling of guilt, which often represents one of the basic obstacles to realization, enabling achievement of goals in the most direct way. The ‘Ut’ tone releases you from the feeling of guilt and fear by bringing down the defense mechanisms. 396 Hz frequency searches out hidden blockages, subconscious negative beliefs, and ideas that have led to your present situations.

RE — 417 Hz
Intent: undoing situations and facilitating change

The next main tone from the Solfeggio scale produces energy to bring about change. This frequency cleanses traumatic experiences and clears destructive influences of past events. When speaking of cellular processes, tone ‘Re’ encourages the cell and its functions in an optimal way. 417 Hz frequency puts you in touch with an inexhaustible source of energy that allows you to change your life.

MI — 528 Hz
Intent: transformation and miracles (DNA repair)

Tone ‘Mi’ is used to return human DNA to its original, perfect state. This frequency brings transformation and miracles into your life. The process of DNA reparation is followed by beneficial effects — increased amount of life energy, clarity of mind, awareness, awakened or activated creativity, ecstatic states like deep inner peace, dance and celebration. Tone ‘Mi’ activates your imagination, intention and intuition to operate for your highest and best purpose.

FA — 639 Hz
Intent: re-connecting and balancing, relationships

Another frequency from the sacred Solfeggio scale. It enables creation of harmonious community and harmonious interpersonal relationships. Tone ‘Fa’ can be used for dealing with relationships problems — those in family, between partners, friends or social problems. When talking about cellular processes, 639 Hz frequency can be used to encourage the cell to communicate with its environment. This ancient Solfeggio frequency enhances communication, understanding, tolerance and love.

SOL — 741 Hz
Intent: solving problems, expressions/solutions

It cleans the cell (“Solve polluti”) from the toxins. Frequent use of 741 Hz leads to a healthier, simpler life, and also to changes in diet towards foods which are not poisoned by various kinds of toxins. Tone ‘Sol’ cleans the cell from different kinds of electromagnetic radiations. Another application of this sound frequency is solving problems of any nature. The fifth frequency of the Solfeggio scale will also lead you into the power of self-expression, which results in a pure and stable life.
