Imagine It

“Leverage your time more by spending a little more time every day imagining and a lot less time every day doing. Do a little more imagining and a little more less doing. Until eventually most of what’s happening is happening in the cool, calm, anticipatory state. Just imagine yourself into the successes, and watch what happens. Imagine a little more and act a little less.”

—Abraham —  January 24, 1998

 

Awareness of the Bigger Picture ∞The 9th Dimensional Arcturian Council

“Greetings. We are the Arcturian Council. We are pleased to connect with all of you.

It will become clear to you what your lives have been leading you towards when you explore more deeply the senses that you have within you. Everything that happens in your life is meant to trigger something within you. You are getting triggered all of the time. Your emotions get triggered. Your memories get triggered. Your thoughts, beliefs, and inspired ideas get triggered by circumstances and events that occur in your lives.
When you have a certain level of awareness, you see right through it all. You see it for what it is, and it is always meant to serve your greatest and highest good. So you may still get triggered when you have this awareness, and what shifts is how you react. What shifts is what you do about being triggered.
Now not every experience of being triggered is what you would call negative, but your responses and your reactions, regardless of whether what is occurring is positive or negative from your perspective, are shifting. They shift because of your awareness of what is actually happening.
When you see the bigger picture of your evolution, and you stay in that bigger picture, you are able to navigate smoothly through circumstances and events in your lives that would have previously shaken you up a bit. Now, when it is something positive that is triggering you, there can be a tendency within humans to overreact and take actions that do not serve you, just as when something you perceive as negative occurs you can take actions that do not serve you.
Awareness here is the key to rising above any circumstances, any reactions, any responses that occur within you, so that you can take appropriate action, or take no action at all. It is always better for you to absorb the energy and the vibration of what is in front of you before making a rash decision about it. We see you coming closer and closer to that time where you are able to hold the awareness of the bigger picture that serves you, and we are happy to see you reacting less impulsively and absorbing more vibrationally.
We are the Arcturian Council, and we have enjoyed connecting with you.”danielscranton.com

What Really Matters

–Dr. Amit Ray (born August 12, 1960) is an Indian  author, and spiritual master. He is known to the world for his teachings on meditation, yoga, peace and compassion.

You Hold Deep Within You All The Secrets Of The Universe

“Let nothing disturb or distress you. Seek deep within and find perfect wisdom and understanding. You hold deep within you all the secrets of the Universe. There is no need to waste time seeking them from without, they have been yours from the beginning, but have had to lie dormant until you were ready to recognise them and accept them. Then when you are ready nothing is withheld from you, and you know that all I have and all I AM is yours. No longer are you in the dark, groping your way around; the light of truth is sharing faith from within you, lighting every inch of the way. So you can no longer lose your way, but can walk along that straight and narrow path fearlessly and with joy in your hearts.”

After Death Akashic Records Review

th-30“When the cumulative soul examines its lifeprint in the Akashic Records, reviewing the immediate past life and evaluating it in conjunctions with all prior lifetimes is a great lesson in itself.  When a review shows that undesirable traits have been pointed out repeatedly without improvement in lifetime after lifetime, the soul can make intense efforts while here (in Heaven)–often with counseling–to overcome that pattern.”  (The Akashic Records are the universal recording and storage system of all soul’s experiencing in all lifetimes.)

Edgar Cayce’s Seven Meditation Steps

Happiness is inside you.“… in the meditation, don’t meditate upon, but listen to the voice within. For prayer is supplication for direction, for understanding. Meditation is listening to the Divine within.  — Edgar Cayce reading 1861-19

Step One: Find a comfortable position. Keep your spine straight, legs uncrossed, and relax any tense muscles in your body.

Step Two: Head-and-neck exercises. Do each of the following three times: head forward, head backward, head to the right shoulder, head to the left shoulder, rotate head in a complete circle clockwise, rotate head in a complete circle counterclockwise. Do not strain or force.

Step Three:  Deep breathing exercises. Fill lungs from bottom to top, exhale from top to bottom. Breathe in through your right nostril and out through your mouth; repeat three times. Breathe in through your left nostril and out through your right; repeat three times.

Step Four:  Special meditation aids can be used as desired. Music, incense, chants, personal rituals, inspirational reading, prayers and the prayer of protection. Send out light and constructive energies to the people on your personal prayer list.

Step Five: Affirmation and prayer for deeper meditation. Move through the three stages of focusing on the affirmation: thinking about it, feeling it, experiencing it. Return to the thinking stage whenever the mind wanders. Allow ten to fifteen minutes for Step Five. Healing prayer. 

Step Six: Decision making. Test any tentative decisions you have made according to the decision-making exercise.  Breathe into your heart three times, and then see how you feel as you imagine going with a “yes” decision. Also watch for any images that might come to mind. Repeat with a “no” decision. Hold each answer together with your spiritual ideal and your ethical views. Considering all of your answers so far, make a tentative decision: Now, put this tentative decision aside and meditate.

At the conclusion of your quiet time, silently ask your “yes” or “no” question, give the tentative answer you reached earlier, and then wait for any feelings or images that come to mind. What would you say is your “inner” answer? If you are unsure of your inner guidance, you may repeat these steps on another day. However, if you feel confident that your decision is the right one, think about how you might act on your decision.

Take the action, and watch for results.

Step Seven: Health tips for improved meditation.  Remember that meditation and a healthy body can work together in a constructive cycle. The practice of meditation is an important element in your overall program for maintaining good health. Good health practices in your daily life will aid your meditation life. Below are areas to which you might want to pay particular attention:

                                                     Healthy Diet
Eat a good, balanced diet, with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as whole grains. The Edgar Cayce readings recommended that 80 percent of the diet consist of non-starchy vegetables and fruits, with the remaining 20 percent provided by proteins, cereals, and starches.  He recommended that meat intake consist mainly of fish, fowl, and lamb, with red meat eaten only sparingly and pork rarely or never.  Also, it is important that we avoid overly processed foods, all fried foods, and foods containing white flour and/or sugar.

                                               Rest and Recreation
Adequate rest and recreation are essential parts of a balanced lifestyle. Be sure to get adequate sleep in order to avoid fatigue during your meditation experience. Recreation helps to relax both your body and mind, which is important when you sit down to meditate.

                                        Eliminate Toxins from Your Body
The elimination of toxins—the waste products left over after the body has digested and metabolized its food—is crucial to good health. You eliminate toxins through your skin, lungs, bowels, and kidneys. The following practices are all helpful:  Breathe deeply and fully, remembering to exhale completely. Breathing exercises before meditation help here, but you should also develop the habit of breathing deeply throughout the day.  Drink at least six to eight glasses of pure water daily, which will help remove toxins and wastes from your body.  Bowel eliminations should be kept regular through proper diet (including lots of fiber) and exercise, especially walking.

                                                             Exercise
Exercise will help keep your body healthy and aid in stress reduction. Always check with your doctor before embarking on any new program of exercise. Moderate, consistent exercise is more helpful than sporadic, strenuous workouts. Gentle stretching and daily walks will go a long way toward keeping you fit and releasing tensions.

Finally, remember that you are a whole person, with all parts working together. Your attitudes and emotions are vital to good health. As you meditate daily, it will have an impact on your physical health. As you pay attention to basic health practices listed here, you’ll find your meditation life enhanced as well.
