Our sacred bond with Nature

"This subject of total well-being would not be complete without considering the environment.  Wouldn’t you say? Our physical bodies are part of the environment.  The traditional definition of health is the absence of disease.  The World Health Organization has redefined health as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well being.  But, the definition I really like is the optimal integration of mind, body, spirit and environment." Day 37 

The same Spirit that moves within us, that same Source of all the energy within us; that Supreme Consciousness that exists within the core of our being, is also in the natural environment.  The entire living world, all of Nature is an expression of the same consciousness that is within us. We have a sacred bond as that consciousness is sacred, life around us is sacred.

Do you recognize life in plants, in animals, in every atom and every molecule?  Do you recognize that there is life force and there is the presence of Consciousness? What does it mean to you as an individual? Are you environmentally conscious?  Are you aware of the natural environment?   

As guardians of this world; as creatures with powerful brains, with the faculty of the intellect, we need to protect our world.   It begins with us developing that consciousness of the environment and the more we come together in a collective way, the more we can influence the environment. This earth belongs to all of us and taking care of it belongs to all of us.  Let us do it in the way that we can, whichever little way we can.  Let us make a step towards being environmentally conscious and in our social consciousness, include Nature.  

We have a responsibility, let us not deny it. Let us take care of our wonderful world.

Be relentless in the quest for the ultimate

The journey of our life is to  go from the darkness of the limited human consciousness into the Light of the experience of our soul's consciousness and power in its fullness.It is a journey through energy fields, energy qualities and a journey of expanding self-identity. We grow in the consciousness.

The journey of consciousness evolution is a journey of remembering, to come back into that state of Being that we have always been. It does not matter what happens in the human experience. It does not matter what the outcome is, the joy is in the manifesting from that selfless space; that unconditionally loving space, that non-judgmental space that is not caught up in the human experience. That is the goal. 

So on this journey, if you want to be fully established in the highest place in your Being, in the highest form of consciousness, you need to ask the question, "Is there more?"    Day 14

Every idea expressed in this talk resonates in a deep space within me and I am encouraged to continue on this path of  self-inquiry and self-discovery. It is reassuring to know that there are other like-minded souls who are sharing their energies on this journey and who are committed to their true well-being. So, I need to get my plan off the shelf and put it into practice, practice,practice.

From the ordinary to the extraordinary

We all exist in a Supreme Consciousness that has limited itself and has become us. This is known as the involution of Consciousness which takes place in seven stages. Every chakra holds us in a self- identity and a certain spectrum of energies that we can manifest.Day 13

Chakras are usually described as  lotuses because they open up to light and close in darkness.Each chakra opens up in stages and different qualities are expressed when the chakras are opened as compared to when they are closed.  If we understand the chakras and self-identities generated and their possibilities,we are then better able to manage the human experience in a more powerful and enjoyable way.

Each chakra can be a path to freedom. I think  knowing and working with the chakra system will open up our awareness. It provides us with steps to explore our inner world and to align it with the outer world. I believe that it represents the full spectrum of human possibility that leads  us from the ordinary to the extraordinary.

Over the years, I  have observed changes in myself  and I know there is so much more to explore.I  have realized that I was giving a lot of attention to the upper chakras: the brow, the throat, the heart and neglected  the lower chakras : the navel, sacral and base. Every chakra is important on the journey. So, I have to learn to tap into the power of each chakra to bring about balance, healing and well-being. 

I leave you today with the following:

He who knows others is wise,but he who knows himself is enlightened. ~Lao Tzu
