Weaving In The Light

Weaving In the Light
-Working in the World for Good

You can make a difference in the world.

By becoming weavers in the Light you can bring about the peace the world so desperately needs.

This weaving in the Light is a powerful method that comes from The Ageless Wisdom and is known as the “Technique of Triangles.”

Technique of Triangles

The Technique of Triangles builds with etheric substance through the Universal Principle that “Energy Follows Thought.” It is a work you do as a Soul, to empower other Souls who also are committed to world service.

The Light of the Soul Descends — Soul Light Descending

You can become a weaver in the Light by invoking and inviting the Presence of your Soul and then declare your intention to join with other Souls to help make the world a better place.

You can do this because you are more powerful than you imagine. Just remember that when you weld the power of the Light, you are energizing right action and right human relationships.

Take a moment each day to join with me, and others throughout the world who comprise the energetic network of The New Group of World Servers.

At your intention and invocation your Soul becomes a part of an etheric and energetic network of Light, Love, and Power, that then spans the world, spreading Goodwill. The Light you are weaving is Soul Light.
– Genevieve Gerard

To join in this purpose all you need to do is imagine your Soul as a radiant point of Light about 3 to 6 feet above your head and then see that Light connecting with another Soul, then another until three Souls have formed a triangle.

Continue to imagine that interconnection of Souls coming together as triangles. As you connect in this mystical formation, as a group of Souls you are empowering and supporting the work of the Will to Good in the World.

Expand this tapestry of Light out to all who you know and most poignantly all whom you love. You can add to this friends and family, co-workers and colleagues, even casual acquaintances.

Since the network you are building is a Soul connection, it is free from your personal will and completely harmless. You are joining with the Divine intention for humanity which is the will to good. This is mystical energetic group work, which will benefit the world.

Join Men and Woman of Goodwill

You may find it beneficial (see below) to use an Ageless Wisdom Mantram that helps you identify with your Soul, by using the power of an “I Am” affirmation.

The Soul Mantra

I am the Soul
I am Light Divine

I am Love
I am Will
I am Fixed Design

I am the Soul infusing the personality
I am the personality Soul infused

As the unified Self, I invoke the One
The One in Whom we live and move and have our Being.

– Unknown

You can then join with the men and woman of Goodwill who are known across the world as the New Group of World Servers. As you join with them as a weaver in the Light, you are joining a worldwide network to bring the world forward in its plan of evolution.

You can further endow this group by joining your consciousness every day at 5 p.m. to support this effort by saying in your heart, and mind, from your Soul, “The Blessing of The New Group of World Servers” below.

As you do this, you help weave and strengthen the Light, the Love and the Power that can transform the world. You are not alone. Across the planet, every day, this group joins energetically and as 5 p.m. moves across the earth this daily infusion of Light helps and heals humanity.

The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
– Mahatma Gandhi

You are invited and encouraged to support and connect your Soul in this great work and service to humanity by saying:

The Blessing of the New Group of World Servers

May the Power of the One Life
pour through the group of all true servers.

May the Love of the One Soul
characterize the lives of all who seek to aid the Great Ones.

May I fulfill my part in the One Work
through self-forgetfulness, harmlessness and right speech.

– A Treatise on White Magic, p. 261 by Alice A. Bailey

Please join with me and the others of The New Group of World Servers as a Weaver in the Light.

When you choose to weave your Light into the fabric of Light and Service that is being woven by Souls across the planet, you are joining in the great work of the Christ to redeem the earth and help it transform from a world of sorrows, into a planet of love. This is the destiny of earth, a destiny that is incorporated and fulfilled in the overall plan of evolution.

If you wish to engage more in the work of world service I am including a prayer, “The Great Invocation” that I have used daily as a part of my meditations, for more years that I care to count, that adds to and builds upon this plan. I have always found it to bring me into a peaceful sense of spiritual alignment and unity.

The Great Invocation

From the point of Light within the mind of God

Let Light stream forth into the minds of men.

Let light descend on earth.

From the point of Love within the heart of God,

Let Love stream forth into the hearts of men.

May Christ return to Earth.

From the center where the Will of God is known,

Let purpose guide the little wills of men,

The purpose which the masters know and serve.

From the center which we call the Race of Men,

Let the plan of Love and Light work out,

And may it seal the door where evil dwells.

Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on earth.

OM OM OM

– Discipleship In the New Age Volume II, p. 157 by Alice A. Bailey

Adding this invocation into your Soul service of weaving in the Light, empowers and enhances your efforts because you join with countless unknown others who use the Great Invocation daily or who say The Blessing of The New Group of World Servers @ 5 p.m. daily, wherever it is 5 p.m. in your corner of the world.

The Blessing of the New Group of World Servers (NGWS) and the dynamic prayer of The Great Invocation are active ways you can be of service to others and help transform this world.

In this way, you can help to make this world a better place. In this way, you can be an active participant in that nobel purpose.

Your life will be empowered and improved by your meditation connection to your Soul and by your joining forces with other men and woman of Goodwill around the world.

If you would like to learn more about The New Group of World Servers, I have included related links at the conclusion of this article, as well as a link to a collection of NGWS guided meditations you can use to join with this group in meditation.

I thank you and bless you as you join with me in working to make this world a better place for all of humanity.

There is no more important work or effort than to take a bit of your day to support the work of all those who strive to bring about Divine Wills plan and purpose for this world.

We are all a part of the One Humanity and can be weavers in the light.

Namaste,

Genevieve

My Christmas Prayer

Genevieve Gerard

I invite you to join with me in saying and sharing this prayer.

By so doing we can each be an instrument to bring into manifestation the peace on earth and goodwill to men that the angels heralded on that very first Christmas Day.

You will find that this prayer combines invocation and at the end, a mantra. Saying the mantra daily will help keep this energy activated in your life. It joins the techniques of both prayer and meditation in a spiritual experiment.

My Christmas Prayer

Heavenly Father, Divine Mother, Beloved Son of God who is the
Son of Man.

As Christmas comes again this year I share this reverent prayer.
The world is much in need of your Divine help and intervention.

Today I pray for peace in the world where there is too little peace.
You who are known as the Prince of Peace who walked among us,
the children of the earth for a precious span of years know well
the foibles and failures of mankind, that lead to war.
I ask that you show us a better way.

Today, this Christmas Day, where across the planet men and woman wish for peace on earth and the powerful intention of Goodwill to Men,
I invite and invoke the Spirit of Peace to come among us and abide with us.

I ask that as this past year passes away, that forgiveness and the principles of brotherhood come evermore into human consciousness. Let the wounds of the past be healed in an inflow of Grace and understanding to bring an end to the cycle of revenge and retribution that fuels so much evil in the world and destroys the work of the men and women of goodwill who work for peace.

I ask that the Divine Love that came to the world on that first Christmas and was anchored on earth with the sacrifice of the Christ, is born in the hearts of all of humanity today and grows so that the Divine plan for our planet can be revealed in the minds of people everywhere reveling another way, the better way.

Let the old lies, glamour, and illusions of separateness fade away as the Light, Love and Power of Your purpose come with the Light of each new day.

Let the Sun as it rises every morning be a sign and symbol for all across the world, that your Wisdom and Mercy which endure forever, are now with the dawning of this new cycle on earth. That a new age of time can spring forth from humanity as the urge to live in harmony and brotherhood grows ever stronger with each new day.

I ask that all of humankind be a force for good in the world, as we strive to fulfill the promise and potential of all that we can truly be as human beings. Enlighten us, infuse us and inspire us as a New Year unfolds.

Let compassion fill the hearts of all in power, so the cries of hungry children do not go unheeded or unheard.

With the Light of each new dawn let new ideas and new solutions be discovered. With the blessing of insight and inspiration, draw men away from greed and materialism that they can be filled with the joy that serving others brings.

Bless us o Lord, that we may be your instrument of Light, Love and Peace in the world now and forever in everything that we do.

Mantra

For all of my brothers and sisters who comprise the One Humanity I ask:

May the Divine Self Inspire me and the Light of the Soul Direct.
May we all be led from the darkness into Light,
from the unreal to the real and
from death to immortality,
so that we may manifest the promise and
the overall plan of evolution for all of creation.

Amen

Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas to you and all those you love.

Thank you and Namaste,

Genevieve

Being in the Moment

Genevieve Gerard

Being in the Moment

When one can ultimately discipline the mind to become quiet there emerges within the meditative experience a sensation of Being.

This is not thinking… this is not doing… this is simply Being. It is being totally present, in the moment.

In this moment nothing is required of you, for this moment is complete just by you being present.

This moment presents the paradox of being both empty and full beyond expression. In this moment you are free from all of the striving, all of the negative self- judgment and all of the desires that often fills your consciousness.

In this moment is a quiet and calm that demands nothing and needs nothing more than what simply is. This moment presents the paradox of being just a moment and yet within this moment is an eternity. In this moment, there is only being.

In this moment there is only now. It is timeless. It is endless. And yet, it is just a moment.

In today’s rush we all think too much, seek too much, want too much and forget about the joy of just Being.”
– Eckhart Tolle

If you try to cling to it, it disappears. Yet in this moment is great freedom. In this moment is great joy. In this moment, you can rest and be at peace.

In this moment, you experience your self as the Self, free of all of the expectations and demands you may impose upon yourself in your regular daily life.

In the discovery of the moment, Being is an experience that transcends thought. Yet, you can let this moment guide you. You can use the wisdom and perspective in your life.

From this experience emerges a deep understanding. It is an awareness that provides a glimpse of your true Being, a glimpse of your true Self. It is an awareness of your self, as Soul.

For as long as you are able to be in this moment, there is nothing you need and nothing you want that is not there. Fear does not exist in this moment, nor does emotional pain or desire. By freeing yourself of fear and desire and allowing yourself to Be, for just this moment, comes an incredible freedom that begins to transform your life.

Your perspective changes as you know and realize that within the moment, nothing that life requires of you, nothing that you might experience is too much, because it only lasts a moment.

You can heal your life by not worrying about the past, or what will be the future. There is only this moment in the present. There is always only this moment in the NOW.

In the NOW, nothing is beyond your ability to accept. In the NOW, you find great strength because you know and understand that whatever problems you face in your life, are only in this moment of NOW. Ponder on this.

This gives you a new perspective as you bring your awareness to the moment. In the moment, you are granted the understanding of the promise that you will not be tried or burdened beyond your ability to bear.

You can take from this experience of the moment lessons that can transform your life. You can release the mind chatter of self-judgment and self-criticism. You can release the negative self-talk of “I could have” or “I should have.”

By being in the moment and embracing the freedom of the NOW, you are opening yourself to the possibility and unlimited potential of a future that has not yet been created, while releasing the burdens of the past.

It is through meditation and learning to quiet the chattering mind, that the awareness of the NOW is best achieved. Being, and being in the now, is always there for you, but too often the noise and distraction of your mind’s chatter, and the fears and emotions, distract your consciousness.

This freedom is available to you. You can enter into the mystical peace and the profound Presence of your Soul through meditation whenever you wish. This bliss, this peace awaits you by simply setting aside the space to calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light.

Meditation is a portal to this moment of time. It grants the freedom from the past. It is a gift only you can give.

Being in the moment is its own reward. The perspective with which you face your life and new challenges is transformed by the respite and restorative power of having rested in the blessing of the eternal NOW.

Follow my guided meditation below for a brief experience of what meditation can do for you today.

A Meditation on the Now

Calm Your Mind, Open Your Heart, Invite the Light

Let your heart and your mind come into the present moment.

Take a deep relaxing and refreshing breath. Let yourself be right here, right now.

Embrace the quiet, the peace of the Presence, as you open your awareness to the timelessness of the eternal NOW.

By choosing to enter into this moment let yourself be open to the awareness of timelessness and let yourselves just be.

Begin by affirming and confirming with your consciousness and mind that all that has ever been before is now past.

Acknowledge that deep truth. Then take a very deep, relaxing and healing breath in and out.

Now, as you breathe in, imagine that you are infusing that air with any sorrows, any shame, any suffering that you have ever known and as you exhale deeply and completely you are now releasing it, freeing yourself from its influence forever.

NOW, breathe in and invite in the peace and calm of the timelessness of the eternal now.

Hold your breath and consciously surrender the glamour of busyness. Then as you exhale, release that glamour completely as you enter into a space that exists beyond time.

It is NOW, nothing more, nothing less.

Right here, right now, as you linger within this opening in the path of time, there is an amazing freedom.

Right here, right now, a deep and abiding sense of peace is available to wash over you.

Right here, right now, the Presence of your Soul is available for you to touch and embrace.

Right here, right now, a sense of wonder and Oneness is available to you.

Right here, right now, you are nourished by the miracle of life.

Right here, right now, you are offered the keys to Love.

This awareness, this experience, shifts your perception and opens you to bliss.

Here and NOW, you are the Soul.

Here in the NOW, you can touch the hem of heaven and dance across the stars.

All that has ever been is past. All that will ever be is in the process of becoming and unfolding.

There is only now and it is yours in its full glory.

Divine love is your birthright. Wisdom opens in you consciousness. All that you are and all that you will ever need to be, is available to you NOW, as you stand outside of time in the vastness of space, held in the safe harbor of the eternal now.

Here is the Peace that passes understanding. Here is the rest that that restores and releases you.

Here all that you have ever been and all that you shall become is embraced and enfolded into the Universal Presence as your Soul offers to the wholeness of your being, the grace and the love of being in the NOW.

In quiet, you can surrender and you can offer up to the Light, Power and Presence of your mind, your emotions, and your personality to blend and fuse with the Light of your Soul.

Right here and right now, by invitation and intention, explore and delight in the wholeness of your being as you realize that although you have a body, you are much more than your body. Although you have emotions, you are not your emotions. Although you have a mind, you are more than your thoughts. You have a personality, which incorporates and contains all of these diverse and delightful elements. It is in the blending of the spark of the Divine that is your Soul, that your true being and your true nature are revealed.

This is the gift of the elegance of the eternal NOW. This is the blessing of being in the moment, in the NOW that is offered to you as a child of God for your healing, for your happiness and for your joy.

Remain quiet and receptive and when you are ready, return to your daily life, relaxed, restored and refreshed by this respite in the eternal NOW.

I invite you to engage in the daily discipline of meditation. In my experience, the discipline of meditation is the simplest way to be able to quiet the mind and emotions sufficiently to enjoy the peace, the freedom and the strength found in the moment.

Ponder this… and let me know your experiences with being in the NOW.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Ways To Find Your Purpose In Life

Genevieve Gerard

Ways To Find Your Purpose In Life

I believe each life we are granted has a purpose.

When you find it, you receive great clarity of purpose and there is a new excitement and enthusiasm that can fill every day of your life.

Your Purpose Is Unique To You

It is one of the ironies of life that your purpose is unique to you. That is why often following the advice of what has worked well for others, no matter how well-meaning or sincere that advice may be, does not usually reveal your life purpose to you.

I often use the words Soul purpose to describe your life purpose. There is a hint in that. When you align with your Soul in identifying your life’s purpose, you receive direction and answers that are uniquely yours. You also see the world from a more holistic perspective that incorporates a wider scope and wisdom than can be seen with the narrow perception of logic.

Follow Your Dreams

For many of us, our Soul purpose is a passionate dream that we have had since childhood. I have heard that dream referred to as our heart’s desire.

Often as a child, there is an unfiltered sense of knowingness about the meaning and the purpose of your life. There is often great wisdom revealed in those childhood dreams.

Sadly, those dreams are all too often ridiculed and demeaned as you grow up. A wide variety of adults, from parents to teachers, all want to guide you based on their life experiences, often letting their fears and limiting beliefs infiltrate the advice being offered without realizing it. Fears, often the fears of well-meaning advisors, can become roadblocks to following the promptings of your heart.

Instead, you need to listen to your heart and look for the guidance you can draw from those limitless childhood dreams and passions to give you a direction to consider.

Listen To Your Higher Self

Calling upon your Soul and listening to the quiet promptings of your intuition, may not be the mainstream way that most people approach this exploration. When we observe around us or read the stories of those who did follow their heart’s desire, even when they had significant obstacles to overcome to fulfill those dreams, we see people living happy and very successful lives.

It seems to me there is a message in that observation. Ponder on this!

Take the time to do some Soul searching and make a list of the things you do for fun, you are passionate about and come by naturally. Notice how you feel about each one. Which one resonates with you and make you light up when you are of service to others.

As you increase the amount of time spent fulfilling your life’s purpose, you’ll notice it’s easier to make decisions in life with your purpose in mind.

To aid you in your call to the wisdom of your Soul and to help you find your own unique path and purpose in the world, there are meditations that can be used.

I Have A Meditation That Can Help With That

As I write these words, I am reminded of a friend of mine recently teasing me about saying,

I have a meditation that can help with that.”
– Genevieve Gerard

That is true because in my experience meditation unlocks the wisdom of your Soul in a way that opens you to new insight and perspective about many things in your life.

Since almost all of the meditations I have ever created were in response to someone’s life challenges, I would love to explore with you how to use the wisdom of your Soul to help you identify your life’s purpose.

This exploration includes a way to open your heart and your mind to the prompting of your Soul, which is often a glimpse of real intuition.

Meditation To Find Purpose In Your Life

To give you a taste of how you can use meditation to tap into your life purpose, try this short example below.

Calm your Mind, Open your Heart and Invite the Light.

As you calm your mind, declare your intention to Touch your Soul with this meditation.

Sitting quietly, open your heart and your mind to the Presence of your Soul and invoke and invite its love and its wisdom to guide and direct your life.

As you call on your Soul it may help to imagine your Soul as a radiating golden-white Light that is about 3-6 feet above your head.

As you call upon your Soul, say this mantra with intention:

I call upon the Light, Love and
Wisdom of my Higher Self
to guide and direct me.

I ask that through my meditation
I will receive clear insight and
understanding of how I can
best fulfill and manifest
the purpose of my life from
where I am in my life, right now,
with what I have in my life, right now.
– GG

Then as you take a deep breath, relax as deeply as you are able.

Open your mind to receiving the thoughts and impressions of your Soul through your mind and through your intuition which is a way your higher mind, which is aligned with your Soul and serves as a messenger of your Soul.

Now taking a deep breath imagine that golden light descending to the top of your head as it fills your mind.

Then, sit quietly and receptively for the next ten minutes, recording in a journal any thoughts, ideas, and impressions. Let the flow be open and spontaneous right now.

Know that later you will have the opportunity to engage your logical mind and consider the ideas and impressions you have received. Right now just record as much as you can without editing or filtering.

When the 10 minutes have passed, then take a deep breath as you bring the Light of Your Soul into your heart and let it rest there, repeating a deep breath and letting your heart be filled with the Light of your Soul and the Love of your Soul.

At this time, take a moment to release any self-criticism and self-judgment.

Let the love and the grace of your Soul permeate your whole begin as you put all that has ever been before you aside. It no longer has power over you.

Right now, the past is over and finished. Let yourself appreciate and enjoy the grace and the freedom of that fact.

Before you is a future of unlimited possibility.

As you conclude this meditation, take a final pause to express your gratitude that your Divine Self is available to guide you. The Light of your Soul will direct you as you go forth into your life with the intention and desire to fulfill the purpose of your life.

– Genevieve Gerard

I encourage you in your quest and wish for you that the rest of your life be the best of your life, as you embark upon the adventure of fulfilling your Soul’s purpose for your life.

Namaste,

Genevieve

A Prayer For Thanksgiving

Genevieve Gerard

A Prayer for Thanksgiving

My heart is overflowing with gratitude for all that I have.

As I consider my life and all of the blessings that I received, I am filled with joy.

I rejoice that an endless supply of Love and Light flows to me from the Source of all Love and the creator of the Light.

I am a child of God and provided for with Love.

All that I will ever need is open for me and manifesting for me now.
– Genevieve Gerard

As I take the time to appreciate the many ways my life has been blessed, I realize there is wisdom beyond my understanding that guides the flow of abundance in my life. I trust that flow to support me as I open evermore to my Soul’s purpose, and with an open heart and an open mind, I strive to be and become a force for good in the world and a source of love in the world.

I know and give thanks that much has been given to me and as I open my arms to receive unlimited abundance, I open my hands to give to those who are less fortunate than I am. I know this circulation of accepting, appreciating, and sharing stimulates the Law of Abundance, and I celebrate that I can participate by bringing plenty to others as my supply is amply refilled.

Today, right here and right now, I take the time to express my gratitude for all that I have received.

Today, right here and right now, I take the time to look around me, in my life, to appreciate the many ways in which I have been blessed. I take a minute and have gratitude even in the face of suffering.

A Prayer of Thanksgiving

I celebrate and appreciate those who love me
and those who have come into my life
for me to be able to demonstrate my Love.
You are a blessing for which I am grateful.

I celebrate and appreciate my friends,
co-workers and companions in my life.
You are a blessing for which I am grateful.

I celebrate and appreciate the beauty of this earth
and I vow to pay more attention to the
gifts that beauty bestows on my life.
These are blessings for which I am grateful.

I celebrate and appreciate my life.
It is a great blessing for which I am grateful.

During the Thanksgiving holiday,
as I move through the events and activities of my life,
I continue this prayer by offering up a thought of gratitude
and appreciation for any blessing I perceive,
whether great or small, as
I demonstrate an attitude of gratitude.

To the Divine Source of Light, Love and Power
that has created and continues to create the world in which I live,
I offer up my prayer of Thanksgiving
knowing my love and my blessings flow endlessly for me.

I rejoice that I am the recipient of such grace,
such love and such joy.

Amen

So be it and it is so.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Ways To Connect With Your Soul

Genevieve Gerard

Ways To Connect With Your Soul

Perhaps the most wonderful and inspiring experience you can have in meditation is to connect with your Soul.

When you connect with your Soul, also known as your Higher Self, you become aware of a part of yourself that is so glorious and magnificent that experiencing it is often transformational and profound.

To me, to connect with your Soul is the greatest gift of meditation.

IMPORTANT FACTORS

An important factor is how the regular practice of meditation actually makes it easier and easier to meditate. It is more than the old adage practice makes perfect. Each time you consciously, and with intention, connect to your Higher Self (your Soul), you are creating additional threads of energy that build a bridge to ease your passage.

Whenever you call upon the Light of the Soul for inspiration or guidance, you are building a bridge in consciousness from your personality to your Soul. In so doing you are making the wisdom of your Soul available to you.
– Genevieve Gerard

You are able to tap into and expand your awareness and perspective to a much greater understanding of who and what you are and a much deeper understanding of the meaning and purpose of your life.

BENEFITS OF CONNECTING WITH YOUR SOUL

When you meditate regularly, invoke, and invite the Presence of your Soul to be an active and incorporated part of your life, you are raising the frequency of your mind and your physical body. This leads to an expanded awareness, and insights and clarity greater than you may have believed possible.

In addition, since the nature and essence of your Soul is pure love, increasing and inviting Soul connection into your life expands your experience of true love and increases your understanding and ability to love.

One of the other profound benefits of calling on your Soul in meditation is an awareness of the connection and interconnection of all of life. This expanded awareness is often accompanied by feelings of unity and purpose. It often fills you with a very deep joy. This sense of universal Oneness, with others and nature, can be a life-altering, magnificent experience of bliss.

USING RITUALS

Some find that the act of using rituals helps to prepare them for meditation. The primary purpose of preparing to meditate with a ritual is that the action of preparation serves to reinforce your conscious intention.

You can experiment with creating rituals that work for you. When you find one that you feel is of help, you can incorporate it into your meditation practice.

When you use a ritual the time and the effort of performing the ritual serves as a preparation and helps you be ready and receptive to the meditation process. An additional benefit of setting up a ritual is it serves the purpose of helping to quiet your mind chatter as you focus on the intent of your meditation time.

Remember, there is no right or wrong way to prepare for meditation. Although you may choose to set aside a specific amount of time for the meditation, this is all your choice and should be guided by what works for you and for your life.

Some rituals that have been helpful over the ages:

Lighting a white or gold candle. If you choose this, having a special or specific candle is usually recommended.
Burning incense (again choosing a specific scent is often helpful) although as you gain more experience with meditation you can change or shift that scent. Some choose the scent based on the desire for a specific energetic result. You may find some favorite scents that you associate with feeling peaceful or calm or feeling more empowered to reach the desired state of consciousness.
I begin all of my guided meditations with an instructional invocation:
Calm your mind, Open your Heart and Invite the Light.
Sitting quietly and receptively for some time before you start to meditate helps you quiet your mind and put everything behind you.

You can experiment with different rituals and see if they enhance the ease with which you become calm, and quiet your mind chatter so you can experience the presence of your Higher Self.

Setting aside a time daily to meditate, whether you choose to use mantrams, guided meditation experiences or affirmations or mindfulness techniques will empower you and enhance you.

Ageless Wisdom Mantram

A Mantram from the Ageless Wisdom that is often used to help you gain the wisdom of your Soul is:

May the energy of the Divine Self inspire me
and the Light of the Soul direct.
May I be led from darkness to Light,
from the unreal to the Real,
from death to Immortality.

Then, still holding your consciousness in the head and visualizing a sphere of deep electric blue, vivid and living, say the following words, endeavoring to realize their significance as you say them:

I stand in spiritual Being and, as a Soul, I serve.
I stand within the Light, and as the Light shines
throughout my form, I radiate that light.
I stand within the Love of God,
and as that Love streams through and from the heart,
I magnetise the ones I seek to aid.”
– Alice A. Bailey, Djwhal Khul “Discipleship in the New Age: Vol I” p.306

You can incorporate this mantram into a daily meditation, or it can be used as an affirmation of intention to connect with the Light of your Soul. This is a sacred time that you arrange, as much as possible, to be free of distractions or interruptions.

Regularity of the practice of meditation helps it become increasingly easy to give yourself the blessings and benefits of meditation. I can think of nothing else that provides so much opportunity for mastery, success, transformation and joy and takes such little effort.

Because meditation is such a powerful opportunity to grow and expand your consciousness, I recommend keeping a journal where you can record your insights and impressions. Writing or recording what you have received in mediation will be valuable to you over time so you can ponder, look back over, and appreciate the ways you have improved your life adventure.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Laying On Hands For Healing

Genevieve Gerard

Laying on Hands for Healing

This article is part of my on-going series on Healing.

Hands-on healing, also known as energy healing or the spiritual healing practice of laying on hands, has been experienced for thousands of years.

In Greek mythology, Chiron, taught Asclepius, the God of Medicine, hands-on healing. This was the source of the word Chi-ergy, which evolved into surgery.

Later, in Christianity, we are told stories of Jesus ability to heal using the laying-on-of-hands and initially the Apostles laid hands on new believers as well as believers.

If God can work through me, he can work through anyone.
– Saint Francis of Assisi

Even Science has proven that your energy; your thoughts and intention can be used to help heal another. This is a gift we can give one another in life. One important way we can do this is by the laying on of hands. This connection of your physical body with the body of the one who needs healing acts as a transmitter to energize and empower the act of healing.

A tradition of the early church that extended well into the middle ages was the laying on of hands for healing.

Offering healing to one another is a way of
demonstrating love for one another.
– Genevieve Gerard

For whatever reason, the laying on of hands is not widely offered today even among groups of spiritual people. Yet to participate in healing is one of the most significant ways you can demonstrate your faith and serve others.

As I open my heart and my mind to the guidance of what I should share with you today, I realize that some of your hesitation to engage in the act of “laying on of hands” could stem from having never been provided adequate instruction in this lost tradition. So this article is to help you gain a deeper understanding of the how’s and why’s of this ancient art.

There are some crucial understandings that will enhance the experience and the effectiveness of the requested healing that I share with you today.

Work In A Group

The first is a recommendation that you work in a group. Not only is working in groups for the purpose of healing a part of the ancient tradition of “Laying on of Hands” but working in groups increases the effectiveness of the healing. If you are moved by this instruction, I encourage you to gather together a group of like-minded people who want to learn and to heal as a service to their community.

The reason for gathering a group together to offer healing to others is that working in groups dramatically increases the effectiveness of healing. From the days of the early church believers were assured that whenever two or more are gathered in His name, Christ is present. When gathered for the purpose of helping and healing another, that Presence further empowers the healing energy. Therefore, to work as a group is more effective than you can ever be as a lone individual.

While this has always been true among a community of faith, it is even truer as humanity enters into the new Aquarian Age that is all about learning to work in groups. On the issue of healing, the passing age and the New Age are in complete agreement. Working as a group is not only more efficient, but is also more effective.

Right Use of Will

When forming a group for the purpose of healing there are certain basic things it is important to honor and understand. There is perhaps no place in life where it is more important than in healing to combine Will and surrender effectively. There is so much about a life experience that can only be understood in a broader perspective than we are privy to that certain safe guards have been built into the tradition of energetic healing since time immemorial.

Among these is the right use of will. Whereas intention, the intention to provide healing, is very important it is also important to invoke the powerful principle of Right Action. Although there is more about this principle that I can say here today, and surely will be a subject I bring up again in future articles and is a subject I know I have mentioned previously, surrendering what you are asking for in the process of healing another to an invocation of, and a request for, Right Action is where that important blend of will and surrender come together.

Ask Only For Right Action

A disease, an illness or an injury may have a purpose, meaning or lesson in someone’s life that we cannot see from our perspective, so requesting or invoking the healing we desire with the clear intention of also invoking Right Action is a way of protecting the person requesting healing from unintended consequences or harm. This alignment with Right Action whether by aligning with Divine Will or the Higher Will (the Soul) of the person you are striving to heal is of paramount importance.

For most engaging in laying on of hands, is for healing. You must however remember that as a group participant it is not your personal will that you are invoking. You need to surrender to and be a conduit of group Divine Will, and focus on what is right action for the person you are trying to heal.

Phrases such as “within God’s Will” and “the highest good of all” are examples of how to invoke the desired healing and the necessary surrender of your personal will. There are many others. Whereas what protective phrase you use is not important, this harmony of using you mind and intention while concurrently surrendering to right action, highest good or Divine Will are essential “rules of the road” to energetic healing. That blending is a protection from the unintended consequences that can cause harm, which is certainly never the intent of healing.

Soul to Soul

It is important to build this invocation for Right Action into your thoughts and techniques of healing and “Laying on Hands.” Therefore it is important that when you offer healing Light you are offering it with Love, from your Soul to the Soul of the one who seeks healing in the full understanding that it is the Soul that brings the miracle of healing into fruition.

Formation of Groups

I would love to see the formation of groups with the focus to do energetic healing be the result of publishing this article. As I realize that I need to bring this article to a conclusion I am frustrated by the understanding that there is so much that is important to know about healing that I can share with you and that I wish to share with you that I find myself wondering about how that could best be provided.

In these days of the technology miracles of Skype, YouTube Live and a variety of other international and national possibilities, if you feel directed in your own meditations and prayers to form a group of like-minded individuals to learn more about energetic healing I invite you to make contact with me and I will consider and create a way that I can provide further teaching for you and your group.

Both my website and Facebook provide ways to contact me so we could together determine what would be most effective for you and the group that you gather for the purpose of healing. If you do not feel so directed at this time I invite you to watch for other articles and instruction on energetic healing that I will publish in my Super Serenity Sunday Articles and I encourage you to check back on my website and I will today commit to twelve more article on the subject of energetic healing. Everyone has the potential to be able to help in the healing of others and I am grateful that I can guide you in this important life service.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Understanding The Power Of Mantras

Genevieve Gerard

Understanding the Power of Mantras:

With The Mantram of the Soul

This article will give you an example of a Mantra (which is a sacred utterance in a word or group of words that has psychological and spiritual power) to help you understand and explain how and why they work energetically.

The Mantram I have included in this article is one I have personally used for years.

The saying of this Mantram daily as a part of your practice of meditation will help you build the bridge to your Soul in consciousness.

Today we will use this as a stand alone meditation, so before you begin you might wish to calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light.

As always when you meditate, I suggest you have a journal handy to record any thoughts or impressions you may receive from your Higher Self (your Soul.)

It is often helpful to imagine or visualize the Soul as a radiating golden Light 3-6 feet above your head.

To facilitate the creation of a pathway to your Soul there are certain building blocks that help to extend and pave the road. Many of these are Mantra that have come from ancient teachings. A Mantram may have been written 5,000 years ago, or it may have been written yesterday. Today we will use a Mantram from ancient times, however; you can create one from the guidance of your Soul.

To expedite your movement on the path of meditation by the use of a Mantram you begin by stating a truth. In the stating of a truth, you use a number of very powerful energies.

You use the power of intention.

You use the power of affirmation.

And, you use the powers of invocation and evocation.

Each of these energies are in many ways similar, but they are subtly different.

So, let us take one of my favorite Mantrams and break down
how these different powerful energies work together.

The Mantram of the Soul

I am the Soul

This truth contains both affirmation and identification. An “I Am” statement has great power because of the dual voice of those two truths.

And also Love, I am

This is also an “I am” statement invoking affirmation and identification. The addition of invocation, calling in the energy of Love, adds power to the statement, as the invocation is like a prayer added to the affirmation. It is truth because you are the Soul (you cannot leave home without it). It is your nature that the Soul is a part of your essential being, and the nature of the Soul is Love.

Above all else, I am Will and clear design

Now this section not only contains the power of identification, and the power of affirmation but it adds more invocation and clarity. Will and intelligence are being added to describe not only the nature of the Soul but also the nature of the human personality; that part of the self that is working in concert with the Soul and the mind.

The Will is the constantly creating part of the self, the clear design. This constantly creating nature of the self works, whether you are consciously aware of it or not, so by directing and invoking the Will you take conscious control of your life to achieve the results you wish, by invocation, evocation, and clarification of intention.

My Will is now to lift the lower self into the Light Divine

You have now made a clear statement of intention of where you wish your personality to go: into the Light Divine. The Light Divine is another word for Spirit, so you are stating both your intention to take your lower self (personality) to your Higher Self (Soul), as both an invocation and evocation of your Will, the creative part of your nature, aligning your intention with the Divine part of your nature.

That Light I Am

Again, by affirming the truth of your identity as the Soul Light, you add the power of identification, the power of affirmation, the power of invocation and the power of evocation (invitation for the Soul energy to make itself known.)

Therefore, I must descend to where the Lower Self awaits my coming

At this point in the Mantram, let me review what you have done.

“I am the Soul” — You have identified with your Soul using the power of identification, and you have affirmed that identification.

“And also Love I am” — As you have continued with the power of identification and affirmation you have added the power of invocation, which adds power of clarification.

“Above all else, I am Will and clear design” — You have now invoked the will, not only identifying with it as you invoke it, but also affirming it and defining it.

“My Will is now to lift the lower Self into the Light Divine” — You have now directed our creative intelligence by your Will and further affirmed the intention of the personality to connect with your Soul not only by invocation and evocation but also by the power of clarification and description.

“That Light I am” — This statement affirms that in addition to being a personality who invokes your Will and directs your intention, you are also identified with that which is Divine, the Soul. You are both simultaneously the creator and the created.

“Therefore, I must descend to where the lower self awaits my coming.” — The “I am” of the Soul–Love, Will and Clear Design–affirms that it has heard the invitation of the personality. It has been invoked, it has been evoked, and therefore it must respond. It must make itself available to your personality. Moreover, the personality knows this and in complete confidence and assurance, simply waits.

Now, having reached the point of the fusion, the Soul energy circulates from the place of the Soul (often visualized as a point of Light about three feet above the head, because the Soul is most often perceived as residing in the upper reaches of the higher mind in your etheric body.)

The Soul energy descends along with the gentle circulating breath, down into the head, down all of the chakras (nested as centers in the etheric body about two inches outside of your dense physical body.) You have invited it, you have affirmed it, you have invoked it, you have evoked it, and the Soul has responded.

You can now enjoy this descent and circulation of energy for as long as you wish.

You may, in this interval, receive clarity about the nature of your Soul. You may experience the profound Love, Joy, and Acceptance that are the nature of the Soul.

You may recognize this consciously, or you may just feel a gentle circulation of energy that is completely beyond thought. It is a state of being. It does not matter how or if you experience anything here. You know what you have done. You have identified with your Soul.

You have specifically identified with the Love nature of your Soul, the Will nature of your Soul and the Creative Intelligence nature of your Soul; and you have invited them into the integrated wholeness of your personality: your etheric body, your physical body, your emotional body, your mental body, and you have circulated it through all of your chakras energy centers of your being through your breath.

Now, when you feel ready, the Mantram continues with an invocation that affirms what you have done.

That which intends to lift and that which invokes the lifting
are now at One

“That which intends to lift” is the Soul, and “that which invokes the lifting” is the personality. Again, the clarification of identification, the intention of invitation, and the power of invocation and evocation, have achieved their purpose in a statement of Will.

Such is my Will.

This is simply the reality affirmed.

The OM, the sacred sound carries that energy out into manifestation as it is sounded.

If you incorporate this Mantram into your daily practice of meditation and then sit quietly and receptively, you will have empowered your meditation with the magic of the Light, the Love, and the wisdom of your Soul.

The healing power of the circulation of Soul Light from your Soul and through all of your chakras and all of your body as an integrating and unifying force can not be understated. This balancing and aligning of your physical body with your emotional body and your mind and personality with your Soul opens you up to the wholeness and integration of your being in a way that is exciting as it is igniting the Divine Spark in you. Ponder on this.

Bringing the Light of your Soul into your conscious awareness is the most empowering and transforming benefit of meditation you can receive. Therefore, I suggest that you use it daily, and you can certainly use it more than once a day if so inclined.

This blending of Soul Light to integrate the Soul with the personality is a tool of great value. Using the magic of this ancient Mantram in your meditation will empower you in amazing ways.

Namaste,

Genevieve

International Day of Peace

Genevieve Gerard

International Day of Peace

Peace is one of the most important things in the world.

To have an international day, where across the world people focus upon peace, is a powerful event on many subtle and energetic levels.

It is a clarion call to humanity to manifest peace on this beautiful and so often war beleaguered planet to demonstrate that peace is possible.

This day, this International Day of Peace September 21 can help bring about peace and you can help and participate in that effort. To do so first realize that the Universal Principle that “energy follows thought” is a force that can be used to invite and invoke peace. Every thought you have of peace today, world peace, and personal peace of mind help build the energy of peace on the planet in the very real etheric substance of the planet.

This year Day of Peace theme draws attention to the importance of combatting climate change as a way to protect and promote peace throughout the world.

Climate change causes clear threats to international peace and security. Natural disasters displace three times as many people as conflicts, forcing millions to leave their homes and seek safety elsewhere. The salinization of water and crops is endangering food security, and the impact on public health is escalating. The growing tensions over resources and mass movements of people are affecting every country on every continent.

Peace can only be achieved if concrete action is taken to combat climate change.

Today peace faces a new danger: the climate emergency, which threatens our security, our livelihoods and our lives. That is why it is the focus of this year’s International Day of Peace. And it’s why I am convening a Climate Action Summit.
— UN Secretary-General António Guterres

What Can Youth Do To Get Involved?

Young people are stepping up to the challenge, close to half a million youth around the world have taken action on climate change in their homes, schools, and communities. According to UNFCCC, they are key actors in raising awareness, running educational programs, promoting sustainable lifestyles, conserving nature, supporting renewable energy, and adopting environmentally-friendly practices.

This year, the International Day of Peace Student Observance will provide a platform for young people to showcase the projects that they have undertaken to fight climate change and promote peace.

What Can You Do To Help

This invitation and invocation of peace unify you with the work and the efforts of all of the men and woman of goodwill who work for peace. This energetic group of humanity is known as The New Group of World Servers.

It is a group that you can be energetically a part of by conscious registration of that fact that you are a man or woman who ascribes to the principles of the Will to Good in the world. As such, there is no belief or dogma required. The work of this group is energetic and is a Soul or spiritual work so it is subtle and often going on beyond the conscious mind. You can strengthen and empower that service to humanity and the world by engaging your conscious mind and linking in worldwide service by joining daily to say The Blessing of The New Group of World Servers.

It has long been a part of my meditation practice, and the meditative practice of untold many across the world, to join at 5 p.m. every day (in your time zone) and say:

The Blessing of the New Group of World Servers

May the Power of the One Life
pour through the group of all true servers;

May the Love of the One Soul
characterize the lives of all who seek to aid the Great Ones.

May we fulfill our part in the One Work
through self-forgetfulness, harmlessness and right speech.

– A Treatise on White Magic, p. 261 by Alice A. Bailey

In joining your conscious energy and thought to this group you empower the forces of good in the world on a subtle but still powerful level.

I invite and encourage you to join with me and the other men and woman of goodwill around the world at 5 p.m. daily in saying this simple blessing. Since it is always 5 p.m. somewhere in the world your efforts join to make this blessing travel around the world every day.

I have found over the years as I practice saying this blessing daily that it is a brief pause to align me with the work and service of my Soul and the Oneness of humanity that brings a sense of peace and calm in the midst of my busy day.

As is true so many times on my spiritual journey, by giving I receive and by blessing I am blessed.

To join with this group today while the world population is focusing on Peace is especially auspicious.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power,
the world will know peace.
– Jimi Hendrix

Peace is an integral component of the energy of the Divine. To open you to the essence of peace energy as it flows from Source, it may help understand that peace is a manifestation of the Spirit of Peace. By tuning and aligning your Soul and your energies to this stream from cosmic love you enhance and empower your life with a peace that can give you greater peace of mind and a sense of peace in the wholeness of your being.

The sense of peace, first within your heart, your emotions and your mind is an exalted state of being and of consciousness. To feel the blessing of peace, both as you bless another and are blessed opens the energy of grace for the deep spiritual sensation of inner peace is a manifestation of a being aligned with your Soul, the Divine and Love.

We all have the Right To Peace.

In this alignment, when you are invoking and inviting peace you are also aligning with the Spirit of Peace. Also at times referred to as the Spirit of Peace and Equalibribrim for the energies of equilibrium are most certainly an element of peace.

To achieve inner peace in your meditative life, your prayer life and your spiritual life is one of the most valued results of living a spiritual life. To take that blessing into the world, to be a peacemaker in this world is the call to action that the International Day of Peace works to inspire. Stand up for your rights!

Therefore, it seems appropriate on this day that you consider and ponder upon what needs to shift in the world to help humanity have peace.

At the end of this post, I have 2 New Group of World Servers Meditation links that provide guided meditations to help you experience greater peace in your life and greater peace on earth. I invite and encourage you to download them and use them in your life.

In the spirit of Peace I am offering one of these meditations as a FREE GIFT MP3 download. It is my Guided Meditation “Let There Be Peace on Earth,” which is a part of my New Group of World Servers Meditation collection. Please share this offer with your friends and family.

Peace within and peace in the world is linked. Practice peace in your mind and in your heart and invite the peaceful presence of your Soul in meditation regularly.

Become an instrument of the Peace that Passes Understanding in the world as you pray for peace, invoke peace, and support peace whenever you can, wherever you are.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Today especially, Peace Be With You. The Blessing of Love on All That You Do!

P.S. The International Day of Peace was established in 1981 by resolution 36/67 of the United Nations General Assembly to coincide with its opening session, which was held annually on the third Tuesday of September. The first Peace Day was observed in September 1982.

In 2001, the General Assembly by unanimous vote adopted resolution 55/282 which established 21 September as an annual day of non-violence and cease-fire.

Bliss is Perfect Happiness

Genevieve Gerard

Bliss is Perfect Happiness

Bliss is a word that you do not think of when describing your life experience.

To me, bliss is the best word that can be used to describe the experience of being aligned with and connected, first to the Presence and energy of your own Soul, and to the Source of Divine Love which for want of better words I would call the heart of God.

Ultimately, bliss is perfect happiness.

Follow your bliss and
the universe will open doors where there were only walls.
– Joseph Campbell

As I ponder how to describe an experience with which I have been blessed with in my meditations, and more importantly, to write the words that can serve as a portal for you to have these blissful experiences, I am aware that my heart is pouring forth with so much love. I am filled with so much joy that I can only pray that as you read these words you open to your own Soul’s inflowing Presence by calming your mind, opening your heart and inviting the Light into your awareness.

If my words and my work can be a gateway for you to touch your Soul and open you to Divine Love then my joy is complete.

As I write to you, what I most want to share is this sensation of bliss, this grace and this Love that is permeating the wholeness of my being.

As I try to identify what I can teach you and how I can best guide you so that I can truly share this with you, I realize the limitations of words. I am reminded that the distance between us and the sense of separateness that we all experience is an illusion, for in the mind of God and the heart of the Christ we are all One. We can connect in that Oneness beyond both space and time. That is the consciousness that I invite you to embrace today.

It is through that Oneness that I can connect with you and share this bliss and sensation of Divine Love that is filling me with overflowing abundance. I invite you to experience this through the Presence of the One Life, the One Love and the amazing grace of Brotherhood and Sisterhood.

“I invite you to join with me in the miracle of the eternal now that transcends both time and space, to be here with me in the presence of the Father, embraced in the cloak of the Divine Mother and emboldened by the Christ, so that I can affirm that Bliss is beckoning to you.” [tweet this]

Bliss is beckoning to you to join with your Soul and it is beckoning to you to use your Soul as the entrance to the blessing of Divine Love, endless Grace and Light that is your birthright as a child of God and a living moving breathing and ever-evolving co-creating human being.

Now, many concepts are buried in that last statement. Concepts that could extend beyond what your logical mind may understand. Therefore, I invite and encourage you to ponder on this. I encourage you to expand your awareness out from your body, your emotions and even your mind to the full range of what you can experience as your Self integrating into that expansion an awareness of your Soul.

To help you open to these energies and these Presences I am including a simple bliss meditation using visualization and incorporating the powerful principle that “energy follows thought.”

Although we cannot be physically together for this meditation, the cumulative group power that this meditation will stimulate is profound. However, to strive to cross the boundaries of time and space I encourage you to declare your desire and intention to connect with the Presence of your own Soul as you enter into this meditation consciousness.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bliss Meditation

To view the bliss meditation on YouTube directly click Bliss is Perfect Happiness.

To begin, Calm Your Mind, Open Your Heart, Invite the Light.

Sit quietly and calmly with your spine aligned and your feet firmly on the floor.

Enter as completely and a fully as you can into this moment of time. Put all that has ever come before this moment firmly and completely into the past as you open your heart, your mind, and your Soul to receive the wisdom, the blessing, and the insight that is here for you, right here, right now.

To begin to become aware of this wholeness of yourself, focus on your breath. Observe your breath as you inhale deeply through your nose. Observe your breath as you exhale fully through your mouth.

Continue to breathe fully as you relax completely and deeply into this moment in time.

Now, do not attempt to control your breathing. Simply be aware. As a part of that awareness, you may say silently in your mind, “I am aware that I am breathing in,” “I am aware that I am breathing out.”

Then repeat the phrases:

“I am aware that although I have a body, I am more than my body.”

“I am aware that I have emotions but I am much more than what I can feel.”

“I am aware that although I have internal thoughts, I can expand my awareness without limitation.”

“I am aware that I am more than my mind, much more than I can think.”

Sitting quietly, with awareness, just observing your breath, is already having an impact on you. Just the thoughts and affirmation about who and what you are is having an impact on you.

You might notice how much more calm you feel. You might notice that your mind is more peaceful and quiet. You could be sensing fullness in the area of your heart. You could be feeling more aligned with the wholeness of your being. You might be experiencing a profound sensation of being loved that pervades your being.

These feelings and sensations are the gifts of meditation. Embrace them. Appreciate them and enjoy them.

Now, for a much fuller and profound awareness, consciously invite and invoke the Presence of your Soul.

One of the simplest ways to connect with your Soul is to use the power of your mind through your imagination. Just visualize your Soul as a radiating golden point of Light about 3 to 6 feet above your head.

Trust that the principle that “energy follows thought” that governs energy is working in your life.

Visualize this golden radiating light flowing over your entire body with Love.

Be aware that although you are visualizing your Soul as that point of Light, 3 to 6 feet above your head, your Soul is your eternal spark of Divine Light and is not confined to any location. Realize that your connection with your Soul is such that it is a part of the wholeness of your being to be integrated with your physical body, your emotional body, your mental body and your personality. Your Soul is not separate from you but is an essential part of who you are and what you are. It is available for you to touch right now!

To further facilitate and enhance your meditation experience, imagine lines of light on an energetic level from your Soul to the Soul of another, and then another. This interweaving of the energetic lines of Light, of Love and Power, connects you on a mystical level.

With Love and service, I offer the Light of my Soul and the Love of my Soul now to help support you and strengthen you as you focus your attention on Soul Light. It is through this Soul connection that I send out to you Love and Light to enhance your meditative experience.

It is through this network of Souls that you are granted the experience of Bliss beyond joy and the Peace that passes understanding not only for you but for you to share openly and freely with others.

Know that this energetic network of Light and Love follows thought and intention in the etheric energies that are not confined to matter. In that etheric field of Light is complete freedom.

Embrace, enjoy and delight in this sense of the limitless nature of your Soul and the fullness of your whole being.

In the pervading Presence of your Soul, you are an eternal being. You are a beloved child of God; you are the miracle of creation that is the son of man and the son of God, a human being created to walk with God in the garden of His overflowing abundance and grace as the first man and the first woman walked with Him.

Here and now as you come closer into the Presence of your Soul you are brought into the Presence of the Father and enfolded in the loving Grace of the Divine Mother and mystically join with the Christ as a manifestation of his work, will and service in the world. Here you represent humanity as the Light, the Love and the power to manifest God’s plan on earth, infuses you.

Rest in the loving embrace of the Trinity as long as it feels right for you. This unity with the mind of God, the Love of God and the Grace of God is the communion that nourishes your Soul. In this trinity of Father, Son and Divine Mother your Soul serves as a conduit to the trinity of the Self, body, emotions, and mind that reveals the principle “as above, so below.” Ponder on this.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To foster your conscious awareness of the Presence of your Soul is an important step on your journey to enlightened awareness. With your intention and invitation, especially when you are meditating, this Presence will expand to become more and more a part of your perception of your being.

Because these times that you come into conscious recognition of the Light and Life of your Soul are special, I encourage you to have a dedicated journal book nearby to record whatever insights and understanding have been made known to you during meditation. You might want to record your thoughts, feelings, and impressions right now. I have found that concluding your meditation experience with recording the sensations helps to ground and solidify the positive energy.

Know that this experience of Bliss, this great blessing, is given to you that you can share it with the world as I share it here with you. Amazingly, it is in giving that I receive. My gratitude for this blessing knows no limitation and my appreciation to you for our unity of Soul Light and Soul Love flows spontaneously to mingle with and create good in the world.

I invite you to repeat this Bliss Meditation often and join with me in weaving in the Light of Spirit and the Love of the Soul into your life.

A matrix, along which Divine Love, sublime Grace and the Spirit of Peace, can flow through your life into the world and into the hearts and minds of all who live on earth.
– Genevieve Gerard

Know that this is mystical work that magically brings with it the essence of Bliss. In this way, we can manifest the mystery of One Life, One Love, One Work and the Oneness.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Love One Another

Genevieve Gerard

Love One Another

This article is part of my on-going series on love.

It is recorded in the Bible that when Jesus still walked among His disciples He gave this commandment “that you Love one another as I have loved you.” (John 15:12).

That this was given as a commandment is interesting and certainly demonstrates the importance of this instruction since the Bible records Jesus teaching his disciples throughout his time with them, but this is the only time I recall in the Bible that he made his teachings a commandment.

To me that means that this instruction takes on special emphasis. The commandment was not simply to Love One Another, but to Love One Another As I Have Loved You.

That He gave it as a commandment rather than teaching or instruction means that He was speaking this direction from the part of His consciousness as the Son of God. As such, He was instructing His disciples to love one another with a Love that was unconditional and transcendent. He was talking about Divine Love.

He was commanding his disciples to love one another from the consciousness of their Soul, to Love one another as a manifestation of Divine Love.

To even try to fulfill that commandment there are some things that must be understood about both Divine Love and the nature of the Soul. That Jesus was speaking of Divine Love is hinted at just before He gave that commandment. It is recorded that He said, “As the Father has Loved me, so I have Loved you.” (John 15:9). Divine Love is unconditional. Divine Love is eternal; therefore, when you love with Divine Love you love them from your Soul to their Soul.

Of course, to forge a bond of Soul Love, you must come from your Soul. Since your Soul is the part of your whole being that delivers and provides Divine Love in your life consciousness it is essential to open yourself and your awareness to your Soul if you wish to fulfill Jesus’s commandment.

Now, if you have been following my articles and my teachings you will note that coming into conscious awareness of the Presence of your Soul is something about which I write about a lot. It is to strengthen that teaching that I am writing this article.

For me to help you come into conscious awareness of your Soul is my mission in life. It is my purpose for writing these articles and it is my joy. It is a demonstration of the Love of the Christ which I invoke daily in my meditation to flow through me out into the world as an act of service and a manifestation of the Love of my own Soul. It is a way that I can fulfill Jesus’s commandment to Love one another as I have loved you to the very best of my ability.

To help you to come into conscious awareness of your Soul I recommend meditation.

As a start to that meditation I recommend that you set aside some sacred time for meditation. There are many things you can do to “set the stage” for meditation. Just know, there is nothing you must do to start meditating.

A Simple Guided Meditation

It is helpful if you begin your meditation time with intention. It is your intention to meditate rather than just think. This is a subtle but important difference. Intention ignites the process.

It is most effective when you choose to meditate to sit with your spine vertically aligned. That is a point of agreement among almost all who teach meditation. There are many reasons for this posture that I will discuss in future teachings, but this is the preferred posture for meditation.

Then to enter into meditation I suggest that you:

Calm your mind, open your heart, invite the Light. The Light you are inviting is the Light of your Soul.

As you sit quietly and receptively, there are some things you can do to bring the Light of your Soul into your conscious awareness. I have written about these steps in previous articles and encouraged you to read them for the insight, techniques, and instruction they provide (see related links at the end of this article.)

Since the purpose of today’s article and today’s instruction is to help you experience the Love of the Soul and Divine Love I would like to focus this meditation on that.

I encourage you to sit quietly and receptively with your mind calmed as much as you are able and your heart opened to receive the Love of your Soul and God’s Love as fully as you are able. Invite into your awareness the Light of your Soul.

These simple steps followed by quiet, receptive contemplation may be all that you need. I do recommend that you have a journal beside you so that you can record any thoughts and impressions you have received in the silence.

To go deeper into the experience and to focus your meditation on Love, the Love from your Soul to the Soul of another I encourage you to say from your heart, your mind and your Soul this mantra:

I open my heart to the Love of the Christ
and invite it to flow through me
out into the world to all who need it.

I open my life to be an instrument of Divine Love in the world
so that my life and my Love may be a blessing
and a service to others.

For this blessing, I give thanks.”

– Genevieve Gerard

Follow the intoning of this mantra with a meditative time of receptivity and contemplation. I suggest sitting quietly for 15 to 20 minutes in the silence, and then recording any insights, thoughts or impressions you have received.

– GG

When I have done this meditation, I feel my heart filled to overflowing with Divine Love and Transcendent Joy. I realize that by giving I have received such an abundance of Love that my heart has become a chalice overflowing that can touch and bless anyone I am in contact with throughout my day as I return to the challenges and chores of my life.

This blessing fills my day with a sense of peace, purpose, and joy. It is interesting to note that Jesus goes on to say in the Bible when he gives the commandment to “Love one another as I have loved you” in John 15:12 “These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.” Ponder on this.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Into The Silence

Genevieve Gerard

Into the Silence: Ways To Calm Your Mind

It is in the silence that we can hear the still quiet promptings of our Soul.

It is in the silence that the Peace that Passes Understanding is Revealed.

It is when we enter into the silence that we can hear the voice of God.

The silence is a full and fertile experience opening us to an inner world that the noise of the world drowns out, and the chattering of our mind obscures.

We are instructed in the Bible to “Be still and know that I am God.” For many, perhaps for you, that stillness is hard to achieve.

To experience that silence and that deep stillness is the purpose of meditation. The portal to meditation opens when you calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light. Each guided meditation that I have created over the years begins with the instruction to calm your mind, open your heart, invite the Light.

However, as I move through my life I hear people say, repeatedly, that they find it difficult to meditate. It seems that for many it is the first part of that injunction “Calm the Mind” that is so challenging. It makes sense then that how to teach a meditator to experience a calm mind has been the work of sages, yogis, and gurus since there have been teachers on the path to enlightened awareness.

For many people, the chatter generated in their minds drowns out the silence. This “chattering” is anything but calming for all too often it is jammed with fears, negative self-judgment, and criticism. It is liberally laced too with the unfulfilled expectation of both themselves and others.

The silence of a calm mind may seem out of reach to you. The mind’s chatter, although you are sitting quietly, may be anything but silent. This is why the regular practice of meditation is so important. It begins to school the mind that your meditation time is a sacred space and a safe space to give the chatter of your mind a rest.

It is in the silence of the calm mind and the open heart that the guidance of the Soul and Presence of God can be experienced. There are many ways that we can move toward that calmness of mind. What way you choose at any given moment of time can be varied and responsive to the events and circumstances in your life when you choose.

HOW LONG SHOULD I MEDITATE?

What seems significant is that you set aside the time and have the desire and intention to calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light. It does not have to be a long period of time that is set aside. Ten to fifteen minutes a day would make a great difference in your life. You do not have to go away from the world as the holy men of ages past did to achieve enlightenment. You can learn to meditate and receive the many benefits and blessings of meditation right where you live and in the midst of your busy life today.

Now some may say, “I don’t have time to meditate every day.” The old wisdom response to that is to say,

If you don’t have time to meditate every day,
then meditate 2 times a day.”
– Anonymous

If you don’t think you can take the time, take that as a sign that you can benefit even more than others from meditation.

I suggest and encourage at least a daily practice of meditation because the health benefits and the consciousness and prospective benefits are best incorporated into your life with consistency and continuity. Whereas any technique of meditation when practiced regularly can positively and dramatically transform your life, some you will find easier than others to help you experience the calmness of mind and dampening of mind chatter that is desired.

In my teaching, I found that guiding people in a meditation and focusing their minds on a particular awareness is most effective. That is why I have created so very many guided meditations.

A great beginning guided awareness meditation to reconnect and rebalance you to your life force and create peace and calm is my Grounding Arrow Meditation. It can be done in the quiet of your home or while walking.

To choose to meditate, to set aside the time with the intention and the desire to calm your mind, open your heart and experience the Light of your Soul or to hear the still quiet voice of God is what is important. How you do it is not as important. That you take the time is of paramount importance.

WHAT WORKS?

I found over the many years that I have practiced daily meditation that one technique or another best suits an individual day, situation or circumstance. Personally, I have changed meditation methods frequently. Although it is human nature for someone to think that their way is the only way, I suggest that within you is wisdom that can direct your choices, that of your Higher Self. In the world are a myriad of instructions and a wide variety of products to choose from. Some are free and some charge a fee. Some techniques are very simple and easy. Others require deep understanding. What works for you is best revealed with experimentation.

Any time you have, at the conclusion of the meditation time experienced, a greater calmness of your body, your emotions or your mind you have gained a great deal. The more often you open yourself to that experience, even if it is in the brief period it takes to think an affirmation or a seed thought, you are opening your life to a richer and deeper awareness.

In addition to guided meditation, using a mantra as either an invocation and evocation, or a repetition of a specific thought focus, or saying an affirmation are all effective tools. Pondering Koans (stories used by Zen masters to instruct on important consciousness points), saying Psalms, repeating a rosary or repeating a favorite prayer in your mind are also meditative experiences. Although there are subtle differences between the experience of prayer and meditation a prayer can often be used to quiet the mind sufficiently to bring you into the receptive part of a meditation experience, the silence.

The use of prayer beads that help followers use repetitive prayers or statements as a mantra are also a way to help you to meditate. Repetitive movements with repetitive thoughts are all ancient ways to meditate. The repetition of a Psalm or prayer is a form of coming into alignment with your Soul, as is chanting. Whatever the language used or technique employed it is the intention to open your mind and your heart to the presence of the Divine and open up to your Soul’s Light that makes the transformation happen.

Within you is a wisdom that will direct your path if you only open your heart and your mind to its Presence. You may have noticed that I often direct you in my writings to tune into that Presence and refer to it as the Soul or your Higher Self. I do this because not only are the health benefits of meditation well documented by science but there are very few things you can do in life that has as powerful and profound a positive influence as meditation, on your health or on your ability to be successful.

SOME SIMPLE MEDITATION TECHNIQUES

A very simple technique would be to declare your intention by affirming and saying:

I am of calm mind,
as I open my heart,
I invite the Light “
– Genevieve Gerard

Then just sit in the silence, quietly and reflectively.

Of course, there is much more you can do and add to the experience but your intention to have a meditative experience once you have set aside the time is a first step. Then you can add other techniques, guided meditations, repetitive mantras, affirmations, prayers or whatever of the vast array of what is offered in the world that you feel guided to.

In a recent article, I discussed the power of an “I Am” statement. You can create a mantra to repeat in your mind out of “I Am” that defines the Presence you wish to experience that day.

Examples would be:

I Am Love

I Am Peace

I Am Joy

It is in the silence, the time to limit the input of your mind’s chatter as much as possible and in the quiet removal from the world’s input, that the magic of meditation happens. There are some who have created audio meditations where the sound is scientifically modulated (alpha, theta, and the deepest delta waves) to bring you into a specific meditative experience. These are helpful for some people as a way of conquering the mind chatter and putting you in a meditative state.

TAKE THE TIME TO MEDITATE

Because for me meditation has been the portal to joy and love, insight, and understanding and a sense of harmony and union with God and all of life, I encourage you to set aside the time to have a meditative experience. You can start the practice now.

I do encourage regularity. The repetition helps your mind calm as it recognizes that this is the time to be calm, too quiet the chattering mind, to tune in and receive insight.

This then becomes a sacred time as you acknowledge and recognize:

This is the time to be still.

This is the time to let yourself just be.

This is the time to open your heart to the expansion of love.

This is the time to be open to the guidance of the Light of your Soul
and the promptings of the Divine.

Taking this time is a gift you can give yourself that will repay you with blessings beyond measure. To be touched by the Presence of your Soul or to hear in the silence the voice of God guiding you, loving you or comforting you is the gift that meditation can give.

This time, set aside by you is for you and will be a blessing that can transform your life empowering you to be and become all that you are meant to be.

Namaste,

Genevieve

The Blessing of Love on all that you do!

The Magic of Saying I AM

Genevieve Gerard

The Magic of Saying “I Am”

“I Am” are two of the most powerful words that can be said. Those words direct not only your thoughts but also your very being and becoming.

The magic of the “I Am” words are that they are a way by which you can direct your life and direct yourself to be and become the person you want to be; what you intend to be, the person who deep in your heart and mind and Soul you know yourself to be.

Those simple words have dominion over the very fabric of your life in a way that begins a chain reaction to bring into your life the circumstances and events that make the “I Am” statement true.

The famous philosopher Descartes had a profound influence upon humanity’s understanding of being and consciousness with his famous declaration “I think therefore I am.” It could also be said that in truth “I am therefore I think.”

Now many people, perhaps you, might ask what the difference is. And others might say who cares? These are some of the word plays and considerations that may only interest the philosophers in the world. Long ago in my college days, I learned that my fascination with these thoughts and subtle distinctions were not shared with most of my fellow students.

Plato with his dialogues and Descartes with his famous statement were all too often greeted with an attitude of “so what?” Yet, over a lifetime of exploring the nature of truth I have found that it is in the pondering and exploration of these admittedly subtle differentiations that an incredible power can be unlocked. It is the power to help you manifest your life purpose and destiny. It is the power to help you transform your life.

To unlock the magic of saying “I Am” it is helpful to understand some of the subtle ways that this statement works. Perhaps the most revealing consideration would be to ask, who is the “I” that is saying “I Am”?

This may seem like a silly question to some, but to me, it is an essential distinction of empowering you to gain mastery in your Life. The I who makes that potent declaration is an amazing creation, a human being, and as a human function on many levels of energy concurrently, often unconscious of all of the tools, power, and gifts with which the Creator has granted a human being. The “I” is the Soul, your Soul, that which has created and directs your life force.

It is in understanding these different tools and in learning to use them consciously, with the intention that you can come into your full power and expression of all that means. First of all, it is helpful to clarify and understand that you are a Soul, having the adventure of your life, a human experience. It is to you as a Soul that you have been granted the role and responsibility of being a co-creator with God. It is when you are identified with your Soul that you have the power to manifest the full glory, the full power and the full potential of a beloved child of God.

It is in that powerful statement of “I Am” that you are brought into alignment with the very highest part of yourself. When you state “I Am,” particularly with the intention and desire of connecting with and aligning with your Soul, you are releasing powerful magic that is shrouded in a deep affirmation of spiritual truth. Therefore, I invite you to use the following ancient mantra to help you come to conscious awareness and identification with your Soul.

It is best to use this mantra with openness and heartfelt intention and desire to connect with and experience your Soul. As you sit quietly and receptively have your spine aligned, and your feet placed firmly on the floor. Then say in your mind the words of the mantra as you read them.

The Soul Mantra

I am the Soul
I am Light Divine
I am Love
I am Will
I am Fixed Design
I am the Soul infusing the personality
I am the personality Soul infused

Following using this mantra I suggest being quiet and receptive as you listen in the quiet to what may become apparent to you through the prompting and revelation from your Soul. Ponder on this.

The Soul speaks and guides with promptings and insights and intuition.

Often, in my writings I encourage you to connect with your Soul, to invoke the wisdom or direction of your Soul. I recommend that you use this portal of awareness, affirming your identification with your Soul, to make available to your conscious mind, personality and emotions the clarity, guidance, and wisdom of your Soul.

Using the mantra with your mind calm and your heart open will help you to experience your Soul.

The more you use this Mantram, the more you call upon the wisdom of your Soul to guide your life, the more you are choosing to live as the amazing creation that you are.

Your Soul is a vital part of your wholeness as a human being. You are not a person who is having a spiritual experience but truly a Soul having a life experience. This shift in your identification of yourself with the powerful “I Am” statement creates a ripple effect in your life, bringing you into greater alignment and integration with your whole self. In so doing it puts you into greater alignment and integration with God, whether you experience God as Creator, Source, Father or Higher Power. It is through the identification of yourself as Soul that you can begin to manifest your role and ultimate destiny as a child of God and your amazing gift as a co-creator with God.

Understanding this mystery of the nature of life, the nature of what it means to be a human being and what it means to be a beloved child of God, reveals so much that can be used to unlock your full power.

The potential of using this mantra in meditation becomes its reward. Using the powerful tool of affirmation by incorporating the “I Am” affirmation is something to use with conscious intention. Keeping an “I Am” statement short and clear limits the possible contamination of your mind chatter, which may resist the truth you are affirming.

When you identify yourself from your Soul’s point of view with an “I Am” affirmation you are invoking a subtle magical power and influence in your life. Therefore, choosing or creating an affirmation for yourself requires careful and conscious thought.

There is within the teachings of the Ageless Wisdom an important law in the universe called “The Law of Unintended Consequences.” The existence of this law is among many subtle and powerful universal laws that might be familiar to you, such as the law that “Energy Follows Thought” of which I have frequently written and the better-known “Law of Attraction.” Many of these laws are activated by using an “I Am” declaration. Ponder on this.

I Have Created An Affirmation To Share With You Today

I am created in the substance and image of God to know love and joy.”
– Genevieve Gerard

I encourage you to unlock your power and your potential by the use of the “I Am” statements of the Soul Mantram and to use other affirmations that are out in the world and available.

Some other simple yet powerful affirmations that you can weave throughout your day to reveal the truth to you as you go about your daily life are:

I am Love
I am Light
I am a beloved child of God

Also you can download for FREE a track called “How to Use Affirmations Effectively,” when you join my consciousness community.

Affirmations are a tool to help you achieve your life’s purpose that can help you manifest your full potential in your life’s journey. I encourage you when choosing an affirmation to align your whole self, Soul, mind, and emotions. These are gifts that are available to you to help you live a happier and more fulfilled life as you learn to manifest the life you are meant to live and the life that you want to live.

When you choose to align consciously with and identify with your Soul you are affirming what is true. Bringing that truth into conscious awareness enables you to receive the many blessings of the Soul. The nature of the Soul is Love. The gifts of the Soul are joy. It is your Soul. It is there for you. The more you consciously align with and integrate with your Soul in your life, the more you can express and manifest the purpose of your life.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Peace Be With You

Genevieve Gerard

Peace Be With You

Getting and Giving the
Transforming Blessing of Peace

The experience of peace has been an integral part of the spiritual journey throughout time.

Being at peace, experiencing peace, and feeling at peace is one of the best parts of the spiritual journey.

The heartwarming and fulfilling moments of peace nourish you at the deepest levels of your essential being. When at peace the pressures and problems of the world fade away leaving you refreshed, strengthened, and restored.

To be at peace is a benefit of meditation, prayer, and opening your heart and your mind to the Presence of your Soul and the Presence of the Divine. The peace that is so often sought is considered a blessing, and indeed, the experience of peace in your heart, mind, and Soul is a great benefit.

Ancient liturgies still performed in Christian churches of a variety of denominations include in a service of worship a ritual called the passing of the peace. This is where fellow worshipers greet one another with the Blessing “The Peace of the Lord be with you.” To which the response is “and also with you.” This ritual of passing the peace is a beautiful part of the group benefit of worshiping together.

The blessing of one another with an invocation of peace is a powerful act that has a far-reaching energetic and healing impact to those who both give and receive the blessing of peace. This is one of the times that by giving we receive. When you wish for another’s peace, you find that the universal law “energy follows thought” becomes engaged and automatically peace flows through you and you become more peaceful. You become an instrument of peace.

A Peacemaker Technique To Experience

Sharing a blessing of peace to others, not just in a few moments of a Sunday morning worship service but as an instrument of peace in the world, empowers you to be a co-creator of a positive reality and makes you an agent of the change you wish to bring to this world.

As a peacemaker exercise you could try an experiment whereas often as you think of it throughout the day, send forth a blessing of peace to anyone you see or notice.

As you try this, observe the impact your blessing and wishing peace influences the energy of the one you are blessing with peace. At the same time observe the effects and results that giving the blessing of peace has on you. You might notice that you feel calmer, less stressed, more attuned, and aligned with those around you.

You could choose, vary or modify what words you use. It is your intention of blessing or wishing them a peace that moves the energy and creates the essence of peace. Depending upon your own personal philosophy, beliefs, or theology, you can invoke the Divine Presence by adding such words to the thought as “The Peace of the Christ is with you” or “the Peace of the Lord is with you” or the “Peace of the Lord be with you.” You can use any of the names by which God is known anywhere in the world.

You can invoke any spiritual presence with whom you intuitively feel connected. This could include the Buddha, saints, or angels. What you send out automatically responds to your thought and intention. The act of blessing another is an act where you are aligned with your Soul. It is a service and a gift that you are giving to others.

This very brief expansion of your thought form about the blessing you are sending forth in this experiment enhances the gift of peace you are giving to the world. I know that when I have used this technique myself I have found that I experienced less stress, more joy and more successful interactions with others throughout the day. By you blessing those you encounter throughout the day, wishing them peace, the energy becomes charged with the good you intend.

To consciously invoke, share and invite peace into your consciousness intermittently, throughout the day, whenever the thought crosses your mind, impacts you because you cannot help but receive what you are giving. It is a simple little experiment. Approach it by being gentle with yourself. Anytime you do it, and anyone you choose is right. It does not require effort. Keep the experiment light, playful, and positive.

You might find it helpful to say what is known as the St. Francis prayer for it embodies the principles of sharing peace exceptionally well. When you say this prayer you are also joining with the energy of those who throughout time have strived to be an instrument of peace in the world.

Saint Francis Prayer

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is discord, harmony;
Where there is error, truth;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, Grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

When I think of you experimenting with this Peacemaker technique,
I am reminded that Jesus in his famous Sermon on the Mount said
“Blessed are the peacemakers: for they will be called children of God.”

When you greet those who cross your path today with the wish and blessing for peace for them, you are a peacemaker, and you are also blessed. As you perform this energetic work and service you are aligned with others in the world who work for good in the world, known as the New Group of World Servers. Across the world, at five p.m. every day in every time zone in the world, this blessing is said to support and empower this group.

Blessing of the New Group of World Servers

May the Power of the One Life
pour through the group of all true servers

May the Love of the One Soul
characterize the lives of all who seek to aid the great Ones.

May we fulfill our part in the One Work

Thank you for giving this technique a try. You are encouraged to join with me at 5 p.m. every day by saying the Blessing of the New Group of World Servers. You can learn more about this group on my website where you can also download meditations to connect with this group.

Finding Your Life’s Purpose

Genevieve Gerard

Finding your Life’s Purpose

Each of us has a purpose for our life.

To fulfill this purpose brings us into harmony and alignment with our Higher Self, our Soul.

To engage in that purpose brings you more than happiness, but joy.

Knowing that in your daily work you are expressing your higher purpose gives a satisfaction that no paycheck or material reward can ever match.

Unfortunately, as you work for survival in the world the importance of manifesting your purpose in the world and finding “right work” can be lost. This is a sad reflection upon our society and demonstrates the ways we fail our children and more importantly, fail ourselves.

Years ago, Paul Goodman in his book “Growing Up Absurd” noted that

we work in jobs that are meaningless,
for which we get money, which is meaningless,
with which we buy things, which are meaningless
and wonder why we have a meaningless society.”

Right work, doing what you love in life, is a key to joy and often the best way for you to unlock abundance. So, as I ponder these things I wonder why more people don’t manifest their life purpose in their work.

As I question this and ponder this I find that there are multiple factors that influence this issue. As with so many things in life, we let ourselves be limited by our fears. We are afraid that if we hold out for the kind of work we love the kind of work we enjoy and what would bring us satisfaction and a sense of fulfillment that we will not make enough money for all the stuff we believe we need and desire. Perhaps what we should fear is living our whole life dissatisfied and burdened as we take on roles and responsibilities that are justified by society’s values that we cannot fulfill. This attitude is often summed up in the expression “that’s why they call it work.” Unfortunately, that expression and the values that it espouses are antitheses to living a full and fruitful life, living a life of joy.

Because we as a society do not value finding our Life’s Purpose, generation after generation is condemned to jobs that do not express or fulfill them as the materialistic values of our society encourage people to live lives of consumption and quiet desperation. This is despite the advice of various thought leaders to “Do what you love, and the money will follow.”

Working for survival can condemn you to a life where you may survive but it lacks a sense of meaning and purpose that will lead you to despair. The “stuff” you buy does not bring you satisfaction or joy. It becomes the clutter of a life of compromise and frustration.

We too often fail to believe in and trust ourselves, life, God or the very purpose of life itself to make fulfilling our life’s purpose work for us, even though it is in doing that is where the subtle energy of life aligns to help and support us. We buy into the limiting beliefs of our world that drudgery is fine if it is amply rewarded. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Perhaps, before you agree to let your fears and limiting beliefs condemn you to a life of sorrow and suffering as you commit to most of your life experience unhappy and unfulfilled, you might consider taking the time and attention to understand what actually brings you a sense of joy, what your real purpose in life is that will satisfy your hearts desire.

Ironically, that does not need to be a high-status job or a dramatic or glamorous one, but rather one that fulfills your sense of higher purpose. The most mundane and tedious jobs known in our society, as basic as a greeter at Wal-Mart, can be the fulfillment of one’s life purpose if as a worker greets customers, they express the intention to be a beacon of pure comfort and joy to other’s as they greet them. When you are doing this as an act of service, and you are aligned with your life’s purpose, yours is the most important job and you are important doing that job because what you are delivering and bringing to that job is more than can be imagined or rewarded. Joy and purpose can often be found in doing whatever you are doing with the fullness of your whole being infusing the task.

When you passion becomes your vocation you don’t need a vacation.”
– Genevieve Gerard

Early in my work life, I was a waitress. Although it was hard work physically, and I was tired at the end of my shift, I left the job satisfied and fulfilled because of my goal, my purpose, was to make my customer’s experience of eating out as pleasant and relaxing as possible. This focus of service to those who crossed my life gave me a sense of satisfaction that filled each day. I approached the job by desiring to be the very best waitress I could be and anticipate and fulfilling the needs and desires of my customers made it a challenge and satisfying. Remembering them from time to time, and remembering what they liked and how they liked it, made the human interaction valuable. This was equally true whether it was a fancy dinner restaurant or a sit on a stool, coffee shop. Not surprisingly, I was always rewarded with more tips than my fellow waiters who approached their service as demeaning or drudgery.

Each day was a pleasure to serve others and bring a little joy into their life even though it may have been as simple a pleasure as a well brewed and warm cup of coffee.

So, it seems to find right work not only has within it the element of finding the right job but also of finding within you that job that you can do to bring the energy from your Higher Self to make it align with your purpose in life.

Through meditation, by opening yourself to the guidance of your Higher Self, you can gain clarity on this issue. Because this is such an important factor in life that has such far reaching impact in not only your life but your relationship and opportunities for service with your fellow man, I recently conducted a group meditation on “Finding your Life Purpose.” This meditation is available as a MP3 download on my website on my New Group of World Servers meditations page.

It is not your purpose to be corralled by your fears into accepting compromises and be demeaned and limited by work but to find where in the world and how in the world you can be a fulfilled glorious expression of your real self.

Look into yourself and consider what you can do and what you can bring to each circumstance and each opportunity in life to align with your Higher Purpose which will bring you more and more opportunities and experiences compatible with that purpose.

Spend some time in meditation to consider what your true passion – your real purpose is, and then be brave and bold as you go forth to do it and live it to the very best of your abilities. Find your life purpose!

Namaste,

Genevieve Gerard
