Living in the Transition Period From the Old Energy of Separation and Duality to the New Energy of Oneness We are in the midst of the most profound and life changing spiritual energy in all human history, quite possibly in all of creation. Absolutely nothing is the same now as it used to be, and nothing works like it used to work. Most of the "sacred" metaphysical books and spiritual teachings/practices together with much of what is termed "New Age" spirituality are now invalid and obsolete. As appropriate as they may have been at the time, they do not apply, or work now, for anyone transitioning into the New Energy. And all the religious institutions (with each one fervidly believing that God smiles only on them the chosen ones, and have the rest of us branded as hapless sinners by default) that have doggedly, ignorantly and falsely promoted separation between God and Humans, and have long decreed that they alone retain the master key to divinity, are now coming to a reckoning, and will no longer hold any reins in this New Spiritual Energy. All those perpetrating untruth, hypocrisy, pretence and fear along with the incessant and appalling abuse of position and trust - all those pompously professing one thing and doing the dead opposite, are now being held accountable. Indeed, the party's over for all the ideologies that have their origins in nescience - in gross misinterpretation, misunderstanding, misconception and unawareness, and their subsistence in man's desideratum for overpower and control.
This is a TOTALLY NEW and UNPRECEDENTED spiritual paradigm, The BIGGEST, the MOST EXCITING, the MOST DIFFICULT, yet the MOST REWARDING and REAL - EVER! And there are no maps or signposts - none! There is, however, highly qualified and empathetic guidance along the way from the forerunners who have lived the experience - The Teachers of The New Energy. And there is no other on this planet -
21 Day Success Formula Brain wave technology For a brief inside look at some of the training processes and the biology of the brain we will speak about awareness as four levels and what happens when you experience each level. (Science has labeled our 4 brain wave states as Beta, Alpha, Theta and Delta) First Level of brain intent and awareness: The brainwave state for most people's every-day consciousness has a narrow awareness bandwidth and is called a "Beta State", and is generally a very stressful condition with a characteristic high and rather chaotic hertz frequency (cycles per second). (Please visit our products page if you are interested in an additional description of brainwave states). Living in the beta state of consciousness one is generally only capable of having one level of awareness and are only aware of one thing at a time. For example, in a conversation you might be lost in what the other is saying, with no awareness of your breath, how your body feels, or thoughts or feeling you are having...or you may only be aware of your agenda or what you want to say, and your awareness flits from yourself to them, waiting for them to finish enough for your turn. If you are multi-tasking, your attention is like a strobe light, flitting from one task to the other, gasping in bits of attention and action a little at a time. It's normally extremely tiring and stressful! Often in this limited brain intent and awareness state one is not aware of and is often in denial of any negative programs that are running even if someone points them out. Second level of brain intent and awareness: When the physical/mental/emotional/spiritual system relaxes a little bit, one finds them self in an "Alpha State" of awareness. Here the brainwaves have slowed enough to rest a little in the space in between what is going on and a witnessing emerges. Disciplines such as meditation, yoga, Tai Chi, sports, hiking and others can easily trigger an alpha state of awareness. And so can a good glass of wine, a sunset, sex, a good conversation, or watching TV. This is often called situational space or witnessing as it is easily pulled back into a harried state. Often in this brain intent and awareness state one can begin to see the negative sub-conscious programs running but are unable to stop them. In an alpha state one can have two levels of awareness - I can feel my body at the same time I connect with you or listen to your words. I can be aware of my environment or a task I'm doing while I am noticing my breath, thoughts and feelings. In dropping into alpha and the more relaxed brainwave states (theta and delta), one can begin to experience one's breath, thoughts and feelings as a witness, the who that is observing rather than doing. Most of us say things like "I am sad" "I don't have time" "I'm upset" I'm happy" 'I'm fearful" "I'm angry" "I'm hungry". However, if you are in an alpha state you can notice that these thoughts come and go all on their own. They are not really you. In fact, who you are is the spacious consciousness within which these thoughts and associated feelings exist. If this sounds strange, try experimenting with this thought: "who is it that is watching the thoughts and feeling that are saying I am sad, fearful, angry, happy, hungry etc"? These thoughts change and come and go. Are you these changing thoughts and feeling or are you that which never changes, the silent watcher, the witness? During the weekend we experiment with this awareness using several different processes which will allow you to master some of your attention to rest with the quiet part of you that is able to contain and therefore notice the content of thoughts and feelings as they come and go. Often the illusion of choice is celebrated in this brain intent and awareness state. A very high state but still one based on should I or shouldn't I programming, still a world of mind and duality. Third level of brain intent and awareness: In a "Theta State" your brain waves quiet even more. Theta is associated with dreaming sleep, creativity and healing. In a waking state a marker of theta is your ability to be simultaneously aware of three things at one time. For example: 1-you can remove the stress and take care of yourself by watching your breath and feelings while listening to your thoughts as the witness and; 2-truly connect with another person as they and you speak and listen to each other; and 3- while also being holographically aware of your environment surrounding you. When you are in all three awarenesses at once with a sense of ease and openness in the body you can be sure you are in a theta brainwave state. In this state many tasks are accomplished easily and effortlessly, connections with co-workers, employees, friends, lovers and store/service workers deepen and sweeten. The world begins to feel like a sacred and exquisite dance as the witness deepens its awareness of wholeness. Often in this state of awareness you begin to notice that your are connected to a flowing field of intelligent energy, resistance to what is begins to leave and you feel the relief of relaxation and stillness spread through out your body, mind and spirit. By Saturday night most everyone in the room is generally able to experience dipping into a waking theta state. Fourth level of brain intent and awareness: In a "Delta State" your brain waves are the same as a person in a deep dreamless sleep. However, with practice it is possible to have your consciousness address be in a delta state while awake and moving around. Awake in delta you experience the wholeness of life as a walking meditation. There begins to be no real boundaries between "you the witness" and "others". The findings of quantum physicists, biologists, chemists, astronomers and many others showing the oneness of all life are experienced directly. (The book "The Field" by Lynne McTaggart is a great story of many of these findings from may difference scientific disciplines www.thefieldonline.com). The popular movie "What the Bleep" also hints at this state. When your mind, body and spirit drops into a waking delta state one is simultaneously aware of all four awarenesses at once and can move easily among them: 1-One's
own body, breath, thoughts and feelings; A profound state shift occurs when your four awarenesses come together and your awareness no longer hovers around space, but in fact (as the Buddhists refer to it) crosses over into the vast consciousness of the experience of spaciousness, stillness and a connection to the ever present and undeniable field of living, intelligent energy. The experience is no longer subtle as your attention gravitates toward the vast inner stillness that is aware of all the content in the moment - the thoughts, feelings, sights, sounds, breath, conversations and environment. You can unmistakably experience the mind, body and spirit reorganizing to allow your true essence to arise as you marvel at the energy radiating out and in simultaneously from all your senses and into the vast spaciousness around you. By Sunday most everyone dips into the waking delta state and many are able to leave the course and maintain it for longer and longer periods of time and some, because of their intent and gratitude of finding space, will do what ever it takes to stay crossed over into spaciousness forever.
The
following is an extraordinary treatment on the discover of who you are,
enjoy! -Larry By Neville Goddard 10-14-1968 THE SOURCE - I AM Man is seeking the source, the cause, of the phenomena of life. In his search, he grows and outgrows his many concepts of God until he finds the one God he can never outgrow, and therefore can never lose. That is the God which he finds in a first person, present tense experience. Here is a true story that verges on this truth. While a friend was shaving, his little girl watched, and questioning him, asked: "Where does God really live?" and he absentmindedly answered: "In the well." Laughing at his silly answer, the little girl ran to tell her mother. At breakfast that morning when his wife asked why he had made such a statement, he could not answer, but later that day he remembered. When he was a small boy in Poland, a band of gypsies passed by and stopped at the well in his parent's courtyard. One in particular held his attention. He was a giant of a man, with a short-cropped red beard. As the little boy watched, the man drew the wooden bucket of water from the well. His posture and great hands made the bucket appear as though it weighed no more than a teacup, and as he drank, the water trickled down his beard and onto his chest. When the man was finished, he untied a multicolored silk scarf and mopping his face, he wiped his beard; and leaning over, he looked deep into the well for what seemed to the child a very long time. Curious, the little boy tried to climb the well's side to see what was inside. Seeing him, the man smiled, picked the small boy up, and said: "Do you know where God lives?" Shaking his head no, the man held him over the well, and said: "Look." In the stillness of that water the boy saw his own reflection and said: "That's me!" and the man replied: "Ah, now you know where God lives." This concept is nearer to the truth of God than ninety-nine percent of the people hold. Here was a so-called ignorant gypsy, traveling from town to town, who knew where God lived and turned to no other. Seeing the well, he knew there would be water. Owned, yes, by the one who lived in the manor, but they would not stop him from using "his" water. Having no desire to accumulate things, this giant of a man taught this little boy a marvelous lesson for all of us to remember. When you see your reflection, whether in a mirror or in the surface of a pool, you are looking into the face of God. Now, the first verse of Genesis and the first verse of John are equated. Genesis begins: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth," and John tells us: "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God." In Hebrew and other schematic languages, the words for "head" and "beginning" have the same root. Achaia, one of the great scholars of the first century and a friend and close companion of Paul, translated the ancient manuscript of Hebrew into Greek. In his translation he used the word "head" in place of "beginning". His manuscript reads: "In the head God created the heavens and the earth." This Hebrew word "rosh" is defined in Strong's Concordance as "the top; the highest part; the beginning; the head; the chief cornerstone." So, it is in the head that God created the heavens and the earth. Blake, claiming that his great poem "Jerusalem" was dictated from on high, stated: "All that you behold, though it appears without, it is within, in your Imagination of which this world of mortality is but a shadow." Blake meant us to take that statement literally. All that you are conscious of is within you. Where else could it be? Looking out, and seeing this world as mechanical and not spiritual, causes you to remain lost in your search, for the world is your minor. You are its source. Everything you perceive is within, for it is in the head that God created the heavens and the earth. I am not speaking of your mortal head. It is only a symbol, a reflection of your immortal one. The day will come when your mortal head will return to dust, but there is a head that survives this one. A head capable of instantly restoring and clothing you in a mortal frame just like your present one - only young - to find yourself in a terrestrial world just like this. That is the head in which God sleeps. It is there that the pattern is buried. And it is in that head that the pattern man unfolds to reveal you as the source. Man finds it difficult to believe he is the cause of all life, yet I say there is no other. Look into the eye of your friend - or enemy - and you will see only yourself. You will see Jacob, the apple (little man) of God's eye. Imagination (God) is forever seeing himself reflected in the world, just as you, looking into the eye of another, see your reflected self. So the little boy looked into the well, and upon seeing his reflection said: "It's me," and the wise man replied: "Ah, now you know who God is." Man can be told over and over again that he is not going to find God as another, but he cannot believe it until that pattern buried in the head unfolds. Then and only then will he know beyond all doubt who God is. I know who the Lord is, for I stood in his presence. I saw his form and conversed with him as man to man. His appearance was the likeness and similitude of love, and when we embraced I was incorporated into that one body of love. If God is the beginning of the universal humanity, and I am one with the body of God, and one with the spirit of God, then I am God; therefore, I saw in advance what I really look like. Divine appearance, wearing the likeness of love, questioned me and I had no other answer than love. What could be greater than what I was looking at? So when he incorporated me into his body of love, he incorporated me into universal humanity. Having seen the face of radiant love, and being incorporated into the body of love, I cannot lose my God. I have found him to be my own wonderful human imagination, and cannot outgrow him. I cannot go elsewhere and I cannot lose this God. He is my God forever and forever, and he is my very self! Having revealed himself to me, he and I became one in a first person, singular, present tense experience. Then everything said of the pattern man we call Jesus, unfolded in me; and I now say, without embarrassment or any bowing of the head, I am He. As long as I continue to wear my frail little body of flesh and blood I cannot claim my heavenly inheritance, but I know it will be instantly mine when I leave this body for the last time. There is conferred upon the Risen Christ, in the experience of men, the divine name of Lord. When Philip said: "O Lord, show us the Father and we will be satisfied," the Risen Christ replied: "I have been so long with you and yet you do not know me? He who has seen me, has seen the Father." This experience takes place after the resurrection, for the divine name of Lord is placed upon the Risen Christ. This story is told as though a man of flesh and blood is speaking, but it is not. Scripture is completely supernatural. The discovery of God is supernatural, for he reveals himself only to the one who has the experience. And when you tell it, those who hear either believe your story or they disbelieve it. If someone has a concept of God as a little physical man, that concept must be outgrown; and man must grow and grow before he can comprehend what you are saying. So maybe those who hear your words can't take it, but do not despair; continue to tell it and maybe one percent of those present will grasp it. It doesn't matter how many can hear with understanding, you offer it anyway. Dwell upon this change in meaning. It is not in the beginning of time and space, but in the head that the word was and is with God, for the word is God. It was in the head that God created the heavens and the earth, so where else would you go to find anything? In the September 7, 1957 issue of the Saturday Evening Post, Harold H. Martin wrote an article entitled, "The Amazing Kennedys." In it he said: "Kennedy admirers look forward confidently to the day that they will see Jack in the White House, Bobby in the Cabinet as Attorney General, and Teddy as a senator from Massachusetts." Here is a family who dared to break one of the most frightful barriers which ever existed in our country concerning the White House - to be a Catholic! My friend David always used the word, “WASP,” (meaning White Anglo-Saxon Protestant), claiming that if you were not a WASP you could not seek the highest office in our land. Well, Kennedy was white, Anglo-Saxon, and Catholic. His entire family were ardent Catholics, yet they broke that barrier. Why? Because imagining creates reality. Back in 1957, the imaginable acts of Kennedy admirers were printed for all to see. They did not say that Bobby would have a cabinet post, but specified what post! Or that Teddy would be a senator, but from which state he would represent - and it all came to pass. If it did not last, that is not the point; it came to pass! And because of the assassinations, their imaginable acts will remain indelibly impressed upon the history of our country. Lincoln, as well as those who are not important as presidents, live longer in the minds of men when they are assassinated. So here we find that ardent admirers, determining what they admired, persisted, and it came to pass. Why? Because the whole thing is within! Can you conceive of a desire and be fervent about it? Can you want the grace of God with the same intensity as the psalmist who said: "As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God." Here is a little deer (for that is what the hart is) knowing that wild beasts prey upon every animal drinking there, desires water with such intensity he is willing to brave anything to get to that little pool. If you could become that thirsty for God, you would find him in yourself, in a first person, present tense experience, for you will never find him in any other way. When I found him I was thrilled beyond measure. Having been taught God was another, I had formed a mental concept of him that comforted me and allowed me to pray to someone other than myself. But when I found him, I found him in myself, as myself! Then I knew I could not pray to another; I must turn within and appropriate, for everything is contained within my own wonderful human imagination! Achaia's translation was really a fantastic gift to man. But - unable to believe it - men chose another definition, and now all translations read: "In the beginning"; yet it could have been; "In the head God created the heavens and the earth, for in the head is the Word, and the Word is with God and the Word is God." Now, if by God all things were made, and without him was not anything made that was made, and you are confronted with a frightening problem - did God not make it alive for you? And can he not unmake anything he made? So if, by your admiration for a certain family, you see them exactly as you want to see them, and believe to the degree that you print your projection in an international magazine, and it comes to pass in three years - have you not found the source, the cause of life? This brings me to a point. A lady recently asked what was wrong with her, because - knowing in the depth of her soul that she was right -when confronted with another opinion, she remains quiet, unable to voice her opposition. In the Book of John, he tells an incredible story, saying: "I am God the Father. When you see me, you see the Father. Do you not know that I am in the Father and the Father in me?" Making one fantastic statement after the other, he adds: "I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place you will believe that I am he." For we are told: "Unless you believe that I am he, you die in your sins." (John 13-14) John emphasizes over and over again that you must believe you are the one you would like to be, or you will never become it. Rather, you will remain what you believe yourself to be right now. Your belief is always externalizing itself on the screen of space. It has to, for it is in you and not out there. When your belief becomes a fact and appears solidly real on the outside, it is because it is supported by you on the inside. The day you cease to believe in it, it will fade, for everything must be built on the foundation of belief. I believe I am a success. I will remain a success only to the extent that I continue to believe I am. The day I stop believing, failure enters and success fades. You must believe you are in a certain state. You cannot forget it if you want to externalize that state. You may drop it after reaching a certain point, but if you want to keep it alive, you must do it within yourself; for nothing comes into being unsupported by an imaginable act, and nothing remains unless supported by that act. The day imaginable support is withdrawn the thing begins to vanish, and ceases to be in your world. This is true for a marriage, a friendship, or a business. If you know what you want, give it to yourself, for there is only one source of causation. That source is God. He is the dreamer in you who will awaken from this wonderful dream of life; and when he does, you will realize you have been dreaming all along. Many great poets have tried to tell this, but man cannot comprehend that the poet - in touch with a deeper layer of his own being - was awakened and recorded his experiences, until it happens in the individual. The dreamer in you is God. It is he who is the source, the cause of your life. Dream fervently! Dream with intensity! Use the recorded techniques such as, "Come close, my son that I may feel you." You can, by a spiritual sensation, persuade yourself that you are experiencing something physically. I know a lady in New York City who - as a combination seamstress and designer - was not earning much, and wanted not only to have a better income, but to do more designing than sewing. When she discussed this with me and told me the amount of money she wanted to make, I urged her not to limit herself asking: "Would you like to supervise those who do the sewing, as well as doing the designing?" And when she told me she would love that, I urged her to write down the amount of money she would like to make, deduct her taxes, and determine the balance. Figuring it out to the penny and believing she would be paid in cash, this lady felt the envelope containing the bills and coins she would receive. Shaking the envelope, she heard the change rattle. Then she tore off the end of the envelope and let the money fall on the table, pulled out the bills and smelled them. (Do you know you can smell money? It has an odor of its very own, like nothing else). Then this lady counted the money, down to the very penny. The next day, while in her room at a hotel on 34th street, her telephone rang and she was advised that a gentleman was downstairs and wanted to see her. She had never met this man before, but knew his reputation, and certainly never dreamed of him calling her. But she met him in the lobby, where they discussed business on the terms that she would be more and more the designer and less and less the seamstress. She then named the salary that we had discussed, and when he agreed, she promised to start working for him the following Monday. One week later, when she opened her envelope, she counted her money out to the very penny she had imagined only a week before. Now, how can you call that coincidence? She was eager to make a change and - believing - she played the part of Isaac. Isaac was blind. He could not see, but he could feel. Knowing one son was covered with hair while the other had none, Isaac desired the one he could touch with feeling. When Jacob approached, clothed in hair, Isaac said: "Although your voice sounds like Jacob, you feel like Esau." Then, basing his conviction upon feeling rather than sound, Isaac gave his son Jacob the right of birth. And when Esau returned to discover that his brother had deceived his father, Isaac said: "I have given him your blessing and I cannot take it back." This lady gave her blessing to a better job and more money. Clothing it in tones of reality, she felt its existence and gave it the right to be born. This she did on Friday, and the very next day the new state came into being. I urge you not to despair. If you have tried and tried to imagine, yet failed, don't give up, try to be more intense. Try to be more believing concerning the reality of your imaginable act. Man, believing in the mechanism of the universe, finds it difficult to see it as imaginable, but it is. Tell the story of the Kennedys to the average man and he will say: so what? He cannot see that story as confirmation of the fact that imagining creates reality. You could tell him a hundred such stories, but - steeped in believing that this world is mechanical and must be moved on the outside - man finds it difficult to understand that the world will reshuffle itself to reflect any change that takes place in the individual. But the change takes place in the imagination, not in the world! Dwell upon the fact that it is in the head that God created the heavens and the earth. Knowing where the head is, you will know where the source is. Then you will know where God is, for he is in the head. Look in the mirror and see God! Look at anything that reflects your face, and you are seeing God. Then one day when you stand in His presence you will know him. Called the Universal Humanity, because He takes one after the other into his one body, when you see that body, you see love! You commune as man to man, embrace, and become one with the risen Christ, even though it will take 30 years for confirmation to appear. But the joy that is in store for you when the time is fulfilled and scripture erupts, is well worth the wait, for you will experience all that is said of Jesus Christ - even to God's Son calling you father. Scripture really means what it says, for it is David who claims the Lord called him his son (Psalms 2) and it is you who will declare: "I have found David. He cried to me, 'Thou art my Father, my God and the Rock of my salvation.' " (Psalms 89) David is buried in the head, where God created everything in the heavens and the earth. It is in the head that God is buried and it is from the head that his fatherhood is revealed. How else would you ever know you were God the Father, unless his son revealed it to you? This experience is in store for everyone. I know, for I am not theorizing or speculating, but telling you exactly what I have experienced. It was David who made me conscious of being God the Father. I know you are, too; but only when David reveals himself to you, will you find the God you cannot lose or outgrow. Where did I awaken? Was it not in my head? From what area of my body did I emerge? Was it not from my head? And how could Christ emerge from one in whom he is not present? If he did not now exist in me, he could not emerge from me. And if he ascended in me, he had to first have descended in me. He descended like a bolt of lightening and ascended in the same manner; for in the beginning God placed himself in the head, and it is in that head that I am dreaming the dream of life. Everything is contained within the head of man. The explosion took place and my son stood before me in my head. It was my head which became luminous as the heavens became transparent. The dove descended on my finger, but kissed my head. Here was the Holy Spirit smothering my head with affection in confirmation of the work God had done, and of which he was well pleased. Now I must tell it and tell it and continue to tell it, knowing that some will accept my words while others will not. But they will one day, when they have outgrown the gods of their own making; for we all grow and outgrow, grow and outgrow. So when you read scripture always bear in mind the completely supernatural characters recorded there. See it as a drama that takes place - not out there, but in the depth of your own soul. Try to become as fervent of something for yourself as the Kennedy admirers were for him. Become as intense for self or a friend as they were for the family. Nothing was more impossible in our political setup than to be a Catholic and still aspire to the White House; but they did it and he got it and you can, too. No matter what it is you desire, remember: nothing is impossible. What is now proved was once only imagined, so begin by imagining a state and persuading yourself that you are in it.
Blake said: "The ancients believed that if you are self-persuaded, it was so. There was a time in Imagination when a firm persuasion removed mountains."
You can remove the seemingly mountainous obstacles which confront you by simply ignoring them and assuming the end. And if you have to go over the mountain, you will, or the mountain will be removed. Whatever is necessary to be removed for you to fulfill what you have assumed, will be done for you as long as you remain faithful to yourself, the source of all life. Now let us go into the silence.
Sex, Passion, Purpose & Enlightenment Training SEX -- The boy-girl energy game is what runs all relationships in life. Sexual energy is the fuel that inspires intimacy, companionship, generates a youthful mind, body and spirit and can be used to enhance ones awareness, passion and enlightenment. It is good to be awake and masterful in this life game. PASSION -- Having a passionate burning fire for everyday life, your work, your relationships, your health or for just being alive in the beauty of nature itself makes life worth living. Passion leads to the desire to love and connect with the Divine energy that animates our mind, body and life – this Divine energy was here before we were here, is here now and will be here after we are gone. PURPOSE-- We do not bestow purpose. It is something that flows from deep within us. Purpose is the potential that we hold for awareness to become aware of itself as awareness. It is out of passion and purpose that we become aware of our self as a 'Person Of Timing' of being in the flow of the right place at the right time doing the right thing with the love and support of everything and everyone. ENLIGHTENMENT -- We have within us a Divine dimension that we now recognize as the 'unified field of awareness' -- the 'space' in which the substance, stillness and sufficiency of spirit shows up in. It is within this dimension that all 'Shift Happens'. Knowing that this eternal Presence is who you are is freedom.
YOUR INVITATION -- An abundance of attractions, invitations & manifestations exist to enter into this timeless dimension and awaken to our true essence. This is your invitation into this timeless dimension.

5,000 Year Old Deeksha Living in the New Energy of Oneness
I traveled to India for 30 days in July and August 2006 to Bhagavan's personal campus to receive training in Oneness Deeksha, an energy transference for spiritual awakening and healing into oneness. I have been healing for over 20 years and have found this ancient energy from India to be worthy of being included, in part, into my healing work and the New Energy events.
The Effects of India's Ancient Healing Energy -by Christian Optiz Although it is very difficult to measure hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain directly, electromagnetic signature testing allows for some conclusions about the effects of deeksha in this regard. One of the main effects I have found with people who have been receiving diksha for a year or longer is a regeneration of receptors for both dopamine and oxytocin. This automatically leads to greater efficiency of these neurochemicals and a decrease in cortisol production. Deeksha can also regenerate the substantia nigra, where dopamine is produced and this directly shows up in changed electromagnetic brain patterns. Many times I have observed a natural release of addictive patterns through diksha that where clearly related to low dopamine levels. Another interesting parameter is the electromagnetic communication between the brain and the heart. This seems to progressively get stronger in people through diksha and is one of the most important energetic correlation's of the flowering of the heart and true compassion. In some of the Dasas and in Ron Roth, this connection was off the charts when I measured them. Oxytocin is the biochemical bridge between the brain and heart. From the data I have gathered so far, deeksha seems to be effective in strongly enhancing oxytocin in the vast majority of people. I also believe that this is one of the aspects of birth trauma that can be healed through diksha and that this effect makes diksha so worthwhile for children. Even though children are not supposed to enter into an enlightenment process, growing up with lots of oxytocin will give them a much more beautiful life experience. Finally, the neurochemical effects of diksha are one reason why other methods people utilize for inner transformation can become so much more effective when people receive diksha. If someone does not need meditation anymore to lower cortisol, meditation can go to much deeper levels right away. If emotional or physical healing work is done on a person who already has high levels of oxytocin, the receptivity to receive healing is enhanced. The synergy of diksha with specific methods of inner transformation is a fascinating subject for more exploration and the role of neurochemicals is essential for the effects such synergies produce.
An Explaination Of The Moola Mantra -- The Mantra Of The Oneness Movement Worldwide Om Sat-Chit-Ananda Parabrahma This Vedic Sanskirt chant was given to humanity through the Grace of Sri Bhagavan and Sri Amma. When you chant this Mantra, even without knowing the meaning of it, that itself carries power. But when you know the meaning and chant it with feeling in your heart then the energy will flow a million times more powerfully. It is therefore important to know the meaning of the Moola Mantra when you use it. This Mantra is like calling a name. Just like when you call a person he comes and makes you feel his presence, in the same manner when you chant this mantra the Supreme Energy manifests everywhere around you. As the Universe is omnipresent, this Supreme Energy can manifest anywhere and any time. It is also very important to know that invocation of the Moola Mantra with deep humility, respect and with great necessity makes The Divine Presence stronger.

Thoughts from Dr. Emoto: Our inner intention, thoughts, beliefs and feelings influence how our outer reality appears Life will instantly reshape itself to mirror our inner imagination and beliefs. So imagine just how magnificent you can be! The photographs of frozen water crystals in this column and the one to your right are from the book "The Message From Water" by Masaru Emoto and show the incredible reflections of water, as alive and highly responsive to every one of our emotions, intentions, beliefs and thoughts. It is quite clear that water, just like humans, easily takes on the vibrations and energy of its environment, whether toxic and polluted or naturally pristine. We now have profound evidence that we can positively heal and transform ourselves and our planet by the space we come from, the thoughts we choose to think and the ways in which we put those thoughts into action.
An
enlightening interview with Dr. Emoto by Reiko Myamoto Dewey.
Pristine Antarctic Ice
Water Placed in Front of Beethoven's Pastoral Music These frozen water crystals are telling us to take a much deeper look at our selves. We are not separate. The interdependency of the presence of the universe extends from the micro to the macro, from the visible to the invisible. Viewing Mr. Emotos work we are provided with factual evidence, that human vibrational energy, thoughts, words, ideas, feelings and music, affect the molecular structure of water, the very same water that comprises over seventy percent of a mature human body and covers the same amount of our planet. The quality of our life is directly connected to the quality of our water.
After much experimentation, Dr. Emoto discovered that the most powerful combination of thoughts in terms of capacity to transform was that of: "Love and Gratitude."

What is the greatest personal achievement? It is not any form of material wealth. It is not any quality of fame. It is not any degree of power. What then? The greatest personal achievement is peace of mind. Most people don't know much about peace of mind. They imagine that it is comfort, or leisure, a stress-free moment, maybe a restful night's sleep, but it is more than relief. Much more. Peace of mind is a quiet mind mental state that makes possible the experience of "just being". This is effortless awareness, undisturbed by thought or judgment, pain or pleasure, gain or loss. Achieving peace of mind is the archetypal motive of human activity. Examine any school of principles and beliefs and you will discover that the ultimate aim of their instruction is (or was) to acquire peace of mind. There are many approaches to dealing with the mind: habituation, revelation, distraction, denial, submission, and subjugation, not to mention drugs, surgery and shock treatments. Some succeed and some fail. Quiet Mind: Finding Your Way Home Consciousness has abilities that allow us to process and deal with the physical universe. Everyone is more or less aware of these abilities. Broadly they are imagining, thinking, and remembering. These are aspects of mind. Only a few people are aware that consciousness has a much broader, intrinsic nature above and beyond mind. This intrinsic nature is the realm of beingness. When it is entered, what was previously held to be important by imagining, thinking, and remembering is likely to become totally irrelevant. From this fathomless realm, all of the events and experiences of normal waking consciousness are satisfactorily encompassed by the curiously wise expression, "That's something."
Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday 2008 On Aug. 28, 1963, King delivered a speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to people assembled for the March on Washington. The speech is known by its famous refrain, “I have a dream.” But there was much more to that speech than those four words: “And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead. We cannot turn back. There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, `When will you be satisfied?’ We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. We cannot be satisfied as long as the Negro’s basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. We can never be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote. No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.” In spring 1963, King was jailed yet again for the cause that eventually cost him his life. While in the Birmingham, Ala., city jail, he penned a letter that has become a classic in civil rights literature: “You deplore the demonstrations that are presently taking place in Birmingham. I am sorry that (you) did not express a similar concern for the conditions that brought the demonstrations into being. Birmingham is probably the most thoroughly segregated city in the United States. Its ugly record of police brutality is known in every section of this country. Its unjust treatment of Negroes in the courts is a notorious reality. There have been more unsolved bombings of Negro homes and churches in Birmingham than any city in this nation. For years now I have heard the word, Wait!' I guess it is easy for those who have never felt the stinging darts of segregation to say,Wait.’ But when you have seen vicious mobs lynch your mothers and fathers at will and drown your sisters and brothers at whim; when you have seen hate-filled policemen curse, kick, brutalize and even kill your black brothers and sisters with impunity; when you see the vast majority of your 20 million Negro brothers smothering in an airtight cage of poverty in the midst of an affluent society; when you suddenly find your tongue twisted and your speech stammering as you seek to explain to your 6-year-old daughter why she can’t go to the public amusement park and … when you have to concoct an answer for a 5-year-old son asking in agonizing pathos, `Daddy, why do white people treat colored people so mean?’” King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. This is a portion of the speech he delivered in Oslo, Norway, on Dec. 10, 1964: “Civilization and violence are antithetical concepts. Negroes of the United States, following the people of India, have demonstrated that nonviolence is not sterile passivity, but a powerful moral force which makes for social transformation. Sooner or later, all the people of the world will have to discover a way to live together in peace and thereby transform this pending cosmic elegy into a creative psalm of brotherhood. If this is to be achieved, man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love. The tortuous road which has led from Montgomery, Alabama, to Oslo bears witness to this truth. This is a road over which millions of Negroes are traveling to find a new sense of dignity. This same road has opened for all Americans a new era of progress and hope. It has led to a new civil rights bill, and it will, I am convinced, be widened and lengthened into a superhighway of justice as Negro and white men in increasing numbers create alliances to overcome their common problems.” Addie Mae Collins, Denise McNair, Carole Robertson and Cynthia Wesley were killed in the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala., in September 1963. King’s eulogy at the Sixth Avenue Baptist Church on Sept. 18, 1963, in Birmingham, Ala., included these comments: “These are the martyred heroines of a holy crusade for freedom and human dignity. And so this afternoon in a real sense they have something to say to each of us in their death. They have something to say to every minister of the gospel who has remained silent behind the safe security of stained-glass windows. They have something to say to every politician who has fed his constituents with the stale bread of hatred and the spoiled meat of racism. They have something to say to a federal government that has compromised with the undemocratic practices of southern Dixiecrats and the blatant hypocrisy of right-wing northern Republicans. They have something to say to every Negro who has passively accepted the evil system of segregation and who has stood on the sidelines in a mighty struggle for justice. They say to each of us, black and white alike, that we must substitute courage for caution. They say to us that we must be concerned not merely about who murdered them, but about the system, the way of life, the philosophy which produced the murderers. Their death says to us that we must work passionately and unrelentingly for the realization of the American dream.” Long before King’s oratory captivated the nation, it worked on his congregation. His “Birth of a New Nation” sermon was delivered at Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Ala., on April 7, 1957: “That’s the way it goes. There is no crown without a cross. I wish we could get to Easter without going to Good Friday, but history tells us that we got to go by Good Friday before we can get to Easter. That’s the long story of freedom, isn’t it? Before you get to Canaan, you’ve got a Red Sea to confront. You have a hardened heart of a pharaoh to confront. You have the prodigious hilltops of evil in the wilderness to confront. And, even when you get up to the Promised Land, you have giants in the land. The beautiful thing about it is that there are a few people who’ve been over in the land. They have spied enough to say, `Even though the giants are there we can possess the land, because we got the internal fiber to stand up amid anything that we have to face.’” Four years after the “I Have a Dream” speech was delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, King took inventory of the work yet to be done. He delivered this speech at the 11th Convention of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference on Aug. 16, 1967, in Atlanta: “Let us be dissatisfied until the dark yesterdays of segregated schools will be transformed into bright tomorrows of quality integrated education. Let us be dissatisfied until integration is not seen as a problem but as an opportunity to participate in the beauty of diversity. Let us be dissatisfied until men and women, however black they may be, will be judged on the basis of the content of their character, not on the basis of the color of their skin. Let us be dissatisfied until every state capitol will be housed by a governor who will do justly, who will love mercy, and who will walk humbly with his God. Let us be dissatisfied until from every city hall, justice will roll down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream. Let us be dissatisfied until that day when nobody will shout, White Power!' …Black Power!’ But everybody will talk about God’s power and human power. Our dreams will sometimes be shattered and our ethereal hopes blasted. We may again … have to stand before the bier of some courageous civil rights worker whose life will be snuffed out by the dastardly acts of blood-thirsty mobs. But difficult and painful as it is, we must walk on in the days ahead with an audacious faith in the future.” We conclude with a chilling excerpt from King’s last speech. He had traveled to Memphis, Tenn., to support striking sanitation workers. It was April 3, 1968. When he delivered this speech, King had less than 24 hours to live: “I’m delighted to see each of you here tonight in spite of a storm warning. You reveal that you are determined to go on anyhow. Something is happening in Memphis, something is happening in our world. But I know, somehow, that only when it is dark enough, can you see the stars. And I see God working in this period of the 20th century in a way that men, in some strange way, are responding - something is happening in our world. The masses of people are rising up. And wherever they are assembled today, whether they are in Johannesburg, South Africa; Nairobi, Kenya; Accra, Ghana; New York City; Atlanta, Georgia; Jackson, Mississippi; or Memphis, Tennessee - the cry is always the same - `We want to be free.’ Men, for years now, have been talking about war and peace. But now, no longer can they just talk about it. It is no longer a choice between violence and nonviolence in this world; it’s nonviolence or nonexistence. That is where we are today … if something isn’t done, and in a hurry, to bring the colored peoples of the world out of their long years of poverty, their long years of hurt and neglect, the whole world is doomed. Now, I’m just happy that God has allowed me to live in this period, to see what is unfolding. And I’m happy that he’s allowed me to be in Memphis.”
The Shift Is Happening - The Real Cause of Global Warming And the Looming December 21, 2012 Mayan Calendar Prediction of Doomsday
Gregg Braden is probably the most recognized person who is evaluating and revealing the scientific phenomena pointing to this shift. He became
intrigued with all this when he was working for Phillips Petroleum in the
late 1970s and noticed that the magnetic's of the earth were at their lowest
point in 2000 years and decreasing at a rapid rate. http://spiritofmaat.com/archive/jan3/braden.htm Wynn: So the implication here is that these astronauts, because they left
the magnetic field of the earth, had some kind of spiritual awakening? When we think of the West Coast, we think about wacky California. Well, the
truth is California is a seed, one of several, and it's traditionally been
very innovative in technology, science, fashion, finance, and the arts,
because there is an opportunity for tremendous change there. Gregg: I'll be as concise as I can. I think that the answer to that is perhaps encapsulated best in the words of those who have come before us, the
ancient Essenes, in a text that's more than 2,500 years old. It reminds us of our relationship to the world around us, and says simply that the world
around us is nothing more and nothing less than a mirror of what we have become from within. But also what I've seen is that so much of their lives is dedicated to
preparing for that day, they've missed the beauty and the mystery of life
that unfolds in every day. And it's in perceiving this beauty and mystery
that we prepare for the greatest challenges!
Q. How does "The Golden Image of Awareness" effect mind, body and spirit behavior?The concept of The Golden Image of Awareness is based on the power of "mastery in mind, body, spirit energy and imagery presence" to affect behavior. The technique involves diminishing the image of things that you wish to rid yourself of and enhancing the image of things that you want to enhance and attract in order to give you better control over your life. When something bothers you, or causes you to be fearful, guilty, or resentful, you have created a negative image of the thing. To use "mastery in mind, body and spirit energy imagery presence" to overcome a fear, bring in a positive image of the fear. If you feared heights, for instance, you could imagine that you were an eagle soaring joyously over the frightening area. If you feared worms, you might picture them industriously at work aerating and fertilizing the ground so that giant plants can grow and feed hungry children. Fearing public speaking, you could visualize yourself addressing a rapt audience and being congratulated after a successful talk. "...visualization...is consciously creative and has a time element associated with the moment."If you have a habit you want to break, determine what you would like to substitute for that habit; that is the experience and picture you will use. Say that you wish to stop smoking and the habit you would like to substitute for the cigarette smoking is sipping a bit of water, so that every time you have a desire to smoke, you will now want to sip a bit of water. The basic difference between "mastery in mind, body and spirit energy imagery presence" (visualization) and daydreaming is that the former is consciously creative and has a time element in the moment. Daydreaming is recreational with no concern for moment just the passage of past and future time.
Golden Images of Awareness - The Consciousness Tool to Break the Hidden Sub-conscious HabitsSit comfortably and go to into a meditation al state. You can do this by closing your eyes, do some light but accelerated breathing and then hold your breath. Repeat as necessary and until you feel quiet and your awareness is expanded to include being able to simultaneously be the watcher of your breath and thoughts without needing to stop, start, fix or solve anything. Step 1 (an example)Visualize yourself smoking.Make the scene large, colorful, and dynamic. Give it movement. Bring in as many senses as you are able. Get a sense of the odor, touch, and taste of cigarettes. Make the scene three-dimensional. Step 2Next, create an image of the thing you wish to substitute for the habit.*For example, drinking a glass of water. Make that image quite small, about a tenth of the size of the first image. Imagine the small image at the lower left-hand corner of your image screen. Leave the scene fuzzy, black-and-white, flat and small. Step 3When you have both images set, count to yourself, "One, two, three."At the count of three, say "Switch" and switch images. Now the larger image with the picture of you smoking is the smaller, and the other image of you sipping a glass of water is the larger. Put the smaller image at the lower right side of the now larger sipping water image. The positive image always represents what you want to enhance. The negative image always represents what you want to diminish. Step 4The next step is, with your expanded awareness, to make the scene golden. You enhance the larger image. You diminish the smaller scene. Make the sipping water scene larger, three-dimensional; give it more depth, more color, more vividness. Bring in other senses such as taste and touch. Do the opposite with the smoking image. Make it smaller. Make it fuzzy, out of focus, black-and-white. Make it still smaller, flat and one-dimensional. You see yourself smoking in the smaller image but cause the scene to get so small that soon it is the size of the bean. In the meantime the sipping water image is growing larger, brighter, and sharper. Finally, the smoking image disappears entirely. See yourself sipping water.Make the image a golden image. As though the sun has permeated and colored the image. Notice that when you understand the concept of The Golden Image of Awareness, things clarify. Isn't it the same - intensifying the mental picture of you, in the chair, feeling pain - when you are fearful of the dentist? What you do is conjure up images of pain and difficult, thereby making the visit an unbearable experience. When that happens, you're making the wrong image golden. Instead, create an image of yourself leaving the dentist's office with your teeth repaired and a smile on your face. Make that The Golden Image of Awareness while diminishing the other one. The trick is to use "mastery in mind, body and spirit energy imagery presence" and The Golden Image of Awareness consciously, and to know which images to diminish and which to enhance. -Thanks to imagery by Goldman, TM and NLP
The quiet revolution By Brad Buchholz Tavis Smiley, the PBS broadcaster and radio talk show host, did the most revolutionary thing at the Texas Book Festival last weekend. He quoted Socrates. He championed the idea of an examined life. Most of all, he had the audacity to suggest — like Desmond Tutu or John Lennon — that in matters of politics and leadership and personal journey, love is the answer. "Let me tell you what I know, for sure, in two words: Love wins. Love wins. Love wins," Smiley proclaimed in the Senate Chamber at the Texas Capitol. "When you utter the word 'love' these days in public spaces like these, people don't often get it. They think you're some leftist radical, some '60s reject. "Yet what I know for sure is that love, in our private lives and our public spaces, is still the most powerful and transformative force in the world today. It is the only power capable of turning enemies into friends." The Dalai Lama said much the same thing — "developing concern for the other" — when he visited Austin a year ago. Could it really be that simple? "The problem is that in our private lives and public spaces is that we've become bankrupt," Smiley said, speaking without prepared text, his bold voice booming around the room. "We're bankrupt politically, we're bankrupt socially, we're bankrupt economically, we're bankrupt culturally because we've extricated from the equation what it means to love. "And when I say 'love,' I'm talking about the kind of love that believes all life has value and that all life in fact has equal value. I'm talking about the kind of love that says everyone is worthy . . . it doesn't matter who you are, where you live, what your educational status is, where you work, who you know. That's the kind of love I'm talking about." Smiley, one of the most dynamic, outside-the-lines voices in American journalism, a one-time aide to Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley, quoted the words of Socrates right off the top: "The unexamined life is not worth living." His message: Go deep. Look within. Get in touch with your value system. Live genuinely. Adopt a life informed by love. Smiley understands there are cynics in the house — hardened pragmatists prone to equate such sentiments with yuppies at a morning yoga class or a New Age retreat in Ojai. It's not often, in American social discourse, that one talks about the power within and the potential of love. Yet these are ideas that may be catching on. At the same Texas Book Festival, radio producer Jay Allison, the man behind the popular NPR essay series "This I Believe," championed the value of philosophical self-examination in the name of a more compassionate world. "Understanding your own beliefs and those of others comes through thought and discussion," said Allison, noting that sincere human exchange is growing increasingly difficult in an age when discourse is increasingly "propelled by media outlets owned by a dwindling number of multinational corporations." A couple of hours later, Pulitzer Prize-winning writer and former public schoolteacher Frank McCourt (author of "Teacher Man") endorsed a life governed by love. He suggested that education in its purest form — a dying ideal he defined as "the pursuit of wisdom" — is all about teachers charged with empowering students to envision the potential of an examined life. "If I have one philosophy of teaching, it is this: Make up your own mind," said McCourt. Are we up to that challenge? That was the question Tavis Smiley raised at the book festival Oct. 28, discussing the themes of "What I Know: My Story of Growing Up in America." Are we ready to embrace the value of a Socratic Life, a life anchored in the spirit of love? "We have to wrestle with the question of whatever happened to the notion of love in our public discourse," said Smiley. Then he turned to the subject of love in relation to political leadership. "Cornell West, our leading public intellectual, says, 'You can't lead people if you don't love them. And you can't save people if you don't serve them.' The question for leadership (today) is 'How deep is your love for everyday people? What is the quality of your service?" How in this cynical, jaded, pragmatic world — with dialogue constantly centered on economic or political self-interest — can anyone lead in the spirit of love today? Tavis Smiley suggests simply that we study the examples of Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. "Look at Martin Luther King," said Smiley, very much the preacher in Texas' public house. "The only weapon he ever had was love . . . and he made America deal with a public dialogue that had love at the center of it, where everybody was worthy, where everybody had value. And he changed the world. "I wonder how much better America would be right now if we took a page out of King's playbook, courtesy of black America and its struggle, and applied it to this thing called terrorism? 'Cause you know something? Black folks know something about how to deal with terrorism." Smiley suggested that there's a lesson to be learned from Emmitt Till's mother, Mamie Carthan Mobley, who stood before the open casket of her 14-year-old son — a boy who'd been beaten and lynched in Mississippi simply because of the color of his skin — and proclaimed, "I don't have a minute to hate." He suggested there's a lesson to be learned from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of South Africa, which focused more on forgiveness than retribution. "Tell the truth, and you're reconciled to society," said Smiley. "If that ain't love, I don't know what is." "What I'm trying to suggest to you is that love is still the most powerful and transformative force in the world today. And as trite as it might sound, there is no way that we will ever get out of the mess we are in until we re-formulate what it means to love everyday people."

It is widely considered that the quiet mind experience can be reached only after long and hard practice (or perhaps temporarily induced by a shaman's magic). It is considered so fragile an experience that even a non-deliberate breath can shatter it. So it is quite a surprise that we can teach a person how to deliberately produce this state in a matter of days. A pleasant surprise!
