YOU ARE A DREAMER



What we are is not what we think we are. We may intellectually know that conditioning and attachments have mesmerized us into believing that we are what we are not. We can remind ourselves by answering a simple question. What was I a hundred years ago? The classes and workshops offered are for the sole purpose in helping understand our true nature. They serve as reminders and offer much needed support along the way. I don't know about you but, I refuse to be like a fly caught in a spider's web. The ego does that...

Earlier this month in our Sacred Breath Workshop, we focused on the Medicine Buddha. Humanity has been poisoned as a result of spiritual ignorance, attachments and hatred. As you know, these poisons influence the body and mind. As we deliberately transform the poisons, we change our energy and eventually release all sense of lack and limitation.

If you are taking the time to read this, you already know that barriers whether they be physical, emotional or mental interfere with our being authentic conduits. Understand...when we heal ourselves, we are also contributing to the betterment of all.

We who seek are both the seeking and the sought. I know it is not easy to grasp this truth in its entirety. When the realization begins to penetrate, understanding mistaken identity and actualizing the Real becomes our focus. Yes, we are already what we seek.

The common energy of this world is desire. A good desire is to gain understanding, acceptance and demonstrate our true identity as spirit in form. We can do this without becoming influenced by a shadow ego. Ego causes struggle. We have the inner power to stop it.

The focus in the classes and workshops is freedom from further suffering. If you feel you could use support in removing your energy from the impenetrable, thickly woven trap of a maze of spider webs, join us the first Sunday afternoon of the month for a class and healing meditation. Sacred Breath Workshops are offered the third Friday of a month where participants definitely soar beyond positive and negative.

Where would you like to be a hundred years from now? Why not consciously return to the luminous and free state of mind called Original Mind and consciously exist as stability and awarenss?

If we understand the law of cause and condition, we can find spring in the midst of frost and winter snow. The True Self, the Living Light and Life, is non-regional. It is within all of us waiting to be acknowledged and lived. There is nowhere it is not. These words are directed to the True Self. It is always within whether we remember it or not. It is our responsibility to constantly connect with the Presence regardless of what we are thinking or doing. We are both the seeking and the sought. Wake up from the dream!

Love, Light and Laughter,

WE ARE TREES

Http://www.behealedforever.com

We are like a tree.  We have roots, a trunk, branches, leaves, seeds and eventually flowers and fruits.  Once we acknowledge our magnificence and work with a constancy through respect for our body, subconscious and conscious, feeling nature and heart, courage and mercy, we finally achieve a greater understanding, wisdom and magical brilliancy exuding pure love.

We are fully capable of reaching the top of the tree and actually being able to consciously participate in a level of arrival where both the masculine and feminine principles are balanced because we are firmly connected with our Higher Nature.

Climbing the Tree is the way we approach our Circle of Light monthly classes and Sacred Healing Breath Workshops.  This fall and through the remaining months of this year we are focusing on the shadow.  The shadow is what we make it.  We create the shadow and it is the astral body, a gateway to the Source.

The shadow is part of the collective unconscious and our personal unconscious.  It is a hidden dumping ground.  A fall clean up is always recommended.  It is easier at times to deny the storehouse.  An inner battle is always going on because it is a bridge between how we think of ourselves in matter and our true higher divine nature.  It is actually a bridge into the immortal.

The shadow brings forth our dualities and will actually help us to balance them.  It is much easier to slip into denial not realizing that denial is a form of self-abuse.  The shadow is actually an ally, a friend, who serves to show us the moments when we are not aligned to love.  The shadow helps us remember who we really are if we do not ignore its existence.

The trick is to treat our shadow with friendliness, respect and be willing to work with it.  In our upcoming gatherings, we will bring the shadow forward and face it.  This is a powerful tool in helping us climb the living Tree of Life.

May the fruits of abundance be yours,
