Mystery of Eternity – Magic of the Soul

The Mystery of Eternity – The Magic of the Soul

There is no deeper conflict in the human experience than the profound knowledge that you are, on some level of your very essence, an eternal being.

Contrast that with the stark confrontation that we all know that we will experience a physical death.

This conflict is the seat of most fear. It is often unexpressed, yet it colors and controls many life decisions.

What happens at death is unknowable and unknown. This mystery permeates the desire to understand the meaning of life. This division of your dual existence as a child of God and a Son of Man is one of the great insights of what it means to be a human being. It is integral to the miracle of life. For you, accepting this duality may be an act of faith and as such requires no further understanding. For others, it is accepted as being unknowable and thus occupies very little thought or concern. Yet, whether with a conscious quest for understanding or a resignation that this is just an unsolvable dichotomy of life, this mystery can fuel a great deal of your experience of life.

It can come into a primary focus when in the human experience, we are faced with the death and loss of those we love. The pain of that loss may bring you to a longing for greater understanding.

Yet, what if I said that as you journey through your life there are a vast array of clues that reveal the deeper truth of this mystery? What if I said that the truth that you have always sensed and hoped and prayed was true?

What if you could finally understand how this mystery works and what it means in your relationships and decisions in life? Would that be of value to you? Would you be willing to take some time and make some effort to open your life to experience what is real and true?

Much of what I call the clues is subjective. You can experience the truth but not prove it scientifically. Although there is recent, from the field of quantum physics and noetic sciences, more validation that is scientific of what has been kept secret since the dawn of man. These secrets have been buried in the esoteric teachings of what is known as the Ageless Wisdom.

Questions about the eternal nature of life are dismissed as unknowable and relegated to being issues of faith. Yet, it seems as human beings we have the capacity to better understand the aspects of life that are revealed to us by the use of meditation as a bridge between the material world and the spiritual world. We can in the worlds of the ancient mantra, “be led from the darkness into Light, from the unreal to the real and from death to immortality.”

The Bible’s prolific writer St. Paul said in 1 Corinthians: 13 12, “For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face.” It is interesting that this statement is a part of his inspired teaching about the real nature of love, for it is Love that reveals the most about what is true in life. It is love that most reveals the nature of eternity. Ponder on this.

On a deep almost preconscious level we know, not with our minds but deep in our hearts the truth of the words, love never ends.”
– Quote by Genevieve Gerard

When you love someone, there is a bond of Love that is a connection of Souls. That makes Love a gateway to experiencing your Soul. The nature of your Soul is Love. It is your Soul that connects you with God, whose nature is Love. When you touch your Soul, you experience a love that is unconditional and eternal.

The soul is birthless, eternal, imperishable, and timeless and is never destroyed when the body is destroyed.
– Bhagavad Gita

Your Soul is not only what connects you through Love to others and to the Divine; it is the dynamic part of your being that is eternal. It is in coming into relationship with your Soul that the mystery of eternal life is solved. It is by developing a relationship with your Soul that great wisdom and insight in your life is revealed. It is your Soul that is available to guide you to understand your purpose in life. Ponder deeply on these words!

Your Soul is much more than a vague concept. It is a source of dynamic power and deep Love that desires a relationship with the wholeness of your being, your personality, your mind, and your emotions. It is in the integration of these aspects of your human experience that a fullness of life, love, and real joy can be expressed. It is through your Soul that you are connected with God throughout your life.

We are told in the esoteric writings of the Ageless Wisdom, that when a human life is ready to incarnate, it is the Soul that draws together the atomic substance that will become the physical vehicle for the life. To do this it draws upon the one permanent atom that remains in a continuity of consciousness from previous life experiences. The Soul then merges it with a permanent atom that creates the emotional body with another permanent atom that becomes the mental body and finally with the permanent atom that forms the personality.

This phenomenon may explain why at birth, instead of a new life being a blank slate, as many believe, an astute observer will note that the personality nature of a baby, the way that they think and how they respond emotionally is already inherent in their being.

This mysterious role of the Soul in eternity opens our minds and our hearts to the unfathomable aspect of the mind of God and the nature of man as a being that is both material and Divine. Under its guidance, your human life is created and at the conclusion of your human life it is returned to and reunited with God in the Oneness of Spirit.

Ponder on this and consider what it reveals and explains in a way that resonates with you as truth.

Meditation, quiet reflection combined with the intention to open your conscious awareness to your Soul, not only empowers your life but also provides clarity and revelation that helps diminish the pain of loss that is so integral to the human experience when a loved one pass away. Touching the edge between the material and the eternal is just one of the blessings of meditation. It has been said in many spiritual circles, “you are a Soul having a human experience.” That is much more powerful and exciting than the perspective that you are a human, having a spiritual experience. This little shift in your understanding can be significant.

Consider how this perspective is different from the thought that you are a material being striving for a spiritual experience. This shift in understanding, this expansion of your identity, opens your heart and your mind. It is the single simple step that can begin a journey to live less controlled by fear and more open to an active co-creative relationship with your Soul and ultimately with God.

This consciousness shift can create changes and greater empowerment in your life. It is a shift in identifying who and what you are. It is a portal to embracing and experiencing the Divine Love that is your birthright. Meditation is the practice that can open your mind and your heart while benefitting the health and wellbeing of your body. It is a way of integrating yourself into being all that you can be.

I Encourage You To Meditate

As you ponder the mystery of the eternal and the magic of the Soul, I invite and encourage you to incorporate the practice of meditation into your daily life. In the world, and in my work, there are wide varieties of meditations available. Many meditations, and most of my guided meditations that I have published, can be experienced in just 10-20 minutes. In many of my articles, I also provide mantra’s to ponder on and meditation techniques to experience.

I always suggest that to begin you “calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light.” Inviting and invoking the Presence of your Soul while quiet and receptive will yield amazing results.

Just know that there are many ways to meditate and none of them are wrong. An intention is important. A very simple meditation technique, which comes from the mindfulness community, focuses simply on awareness and breath by repeating the phrases “I am breathing in,” “I am aware that I am breathing in.” Followed by noticing, “I am breathing out,” “I am aware that I am breathing out.”

Focusing on your breath, and observing your breath, are simple ways to enter the meditation experience. Setting aside quiet time in prayer after using words can also serve as an entrée to a meditation experience.

Try out different things. Guided meditations are often easier. One of the most challenging aspects of meditation is quieting your mind chatter, particularly the negative and self-destructive or fear elements of your mind chatter. Experiment; try different ways and different things. Find what works for you. Let your Soul guide you.

Once you have chosen a particular way to meditate, give it some consistency by setting aside 10-20 minutes daily to practice the meditation. Let your intuition and your Soul guide you.

Meditation is opening a door and if you are open, it will guide you in finding what you need from the experience. Peace of mind, emotional calm, and physical relaxation are some of the benefits of setting aside some time out of your material life for your spiritual evolution.

I also encourage journaling after a brief period of calming your mind and focusing on Love opening your heart energy, then recording your thoughts and impressions.

In my life meditation has been the tool that has enabled me to live a life of joy and spiritual relationship with the Divine and my fellow man. There is no greater gift that I can offer you than to provide you with the resources to connect with your own Soul and explore the mystery of eternity and the magic of your Soul.

To support you on your quest I have identified some other articles that may be of help to you and provided a link to one of my guided meditations that I feel would give you the experience of the gift of love and the magic of the Soul.

Namaste,

Genevieve

I Will Fear No Evil

Genevieve Gerard

I Will Fear No Evil

Meditation Insights of the 23rd Psalm

Recently I was meditating in the morning and asking for guidance on what I could share with you that could empower your spiritual journey at this time.

I found the 23rd Psalm running through my mind with a new understanding and insight of the meaning, intention and power of those familiar words.

I would like to share those impressions with you today.

The Lord Is My Shepherd

Tradition tells us that David, who was a shepherd, before becoming a King, wrote this Psalm.

Whenever I read the Psalms or the story of the life of David who became a King I am struck by several things. One is David’s strong sense of the joy and relationship with his Soul and the other is the powerful relationship of communion and faith in God.

Those dynamics are expressed and exalted in the 23rd Psalm that has been used as a comfort to so many for so long.

If we consider the words thoughtfully, there is a deep and underlying meaning in the words of the 23rd Psalm that can be pondered on and of benefit to you in your life.

The first phrase:

The Lord is my shepherd

This is a powerful statement because it implies being in a guiding and protective relationship with God.

This relationship is one of a human being, “I”, being in a close communion with God “Thou”. It speaks to a willingness to be directed by the higher wisdom of God as he has a greater vision of the whole scope of your life. The surrender to this wisdom and this guidance is a part of what makes this Psalm so comforting. God as a shepherd has the big picture and will provide direction. You are not in this adventure of life alone; you are connected with the Divine who loves and cares for you.

I shall not want

This is a powerful affirmation, not only of faith but also in keeping with the Law of Attraction. This affirms that abundance is yours to the point that your needs and your wants are provided for.

He makes me lie down in green pastures

There is no greater gift to a sheep, who is guided by a shepherd, than a green pasture filled with more than enough to eat.

He leads me beside still waters

It is in the still waters that thirst can be quenched easily. I have often thought of the still waters as symbolic of the waters of life that quench not only physical thirst but a spiritual thirst for knowledge and love. In this stillness continues the affirmation that what you need will be provided for by the wisdom and guidance of the Lord as your shepherd.

He restores my Soul

This speaks to the dual relationship that you have with God. As a Soul you are a being who is not just a physical body with material needs, but a being who has a Soul that is united with God, in an integrated union, an “I-Thou” relationship.

You are not alone in your spiritual quest. You are together with the Divine. In the creation story of the Bible, we are told that God created man in His own image to be in a relationship. That part of our being that is in the image of God is our Soul. This is the Divine spark that resides in each of us.

This spark of Divine Light is the essence of your Soul. It is your essential Light that holds you in constant connection with the Divine. I believe this so much that in the very first affirmation of my “Awaken to Success” – affirmations for abundance collection, I wrote, “I am a spark of Divine Light, it is my nature to shine.” This remains one of my favorite affirmations and one I frequently use in my own life.

As a human being whose spiritual anatomy includes not only a physical body, but also emotions, a creative and conceiving mind, and also a Soul, you are a unique part of creation. It is this dual aspect of human nature that separates man from animal. It is through the connection of the Soul that the exalted co-creator relationship with God is demonstrated.

He leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake

To me the path of righteousness means right action and right relationship with others. This includes the principles of harmlessness, and right speech.

Your actions and behaviors as a child of God and as a member of his flock witness to others what it means when you are in right relationship with the Divine. Every step you take and every move you make can be a demonstration of this right relationship.

Even though I walk in the valley and the shadow of death,

We have all had difficult times in life when we were emotionally down or may have had problems with health that reminded us that we are mortal and “the shadow of death” is a reality in human life.

Yet, it is a great comfort in those darkest of times to know that even if death is overshadowing, God is with you. You are not alone on the path in the valley of life’s experiences. Your Soul is eternal, and your relationship with God is eternal. This is a great comfort and an incredible blessing.

I will fear no evil

Certainly conquering your fears is one of the most freeing aspects of living a spiritual and conscious life. In the immortal words of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, “You have nothing to fear, but fear itself.” Fear is the most limiting force in most lives. It can keep you from fulfilling your life’s purpose and destroy the happiness and joy that is your birthright as a beloved Child of God. It is the work of evil in the world.

To free yourself from fear is the fruit of spiritual growth and evolution. It is an essential element in the journey to conscious living. It is the desired outcome of the discipline and practice of meditation.

For Thou Art With Me

This speaks to the assurance that you are not alone in the challenges of life. God is always with you. You are supported and sustained by the Presence of God in your life. You can be comforted and reassured by that connection that is always available to you.

Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me

You may not understand how a shepherd uses his rod and his staff and how that provides comfort to the flock, but I have always thought that this refers to the way that God works to gently guide us in our life to the right path. This sense of being directed and guided in my life is always a comfort.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies

I have never seen the world in terms of enemies, so this phrase has never held that much meaning for me. I have always thought that this was a way that David expressed his sense of being protected by God while being blessed with abundance, a way of expressing his faith and assurance that his life was being directed.

Considering the political aspects of David’s life, even when he was a shepherd, this sense of enemies and God showing high favor to them by “preparing a table” is symbolic of God demonstrating his Love and Grace as he guides David to his destiny.

Thou anoints my head with oil

This is a reference to David being chosen as King. In olden times, there is a ritual in which the prophet anointing the head with oil meant God’s favor. For you, it might mean being promoted or offered a new position that is more aligned with your life’s purpose. This, in modern terms, is the demonstration of success.

My cup overflows

This is certainly an expression of great gratitude and affirmation of abundance. It is interesting that at the beginning of the Psalm is an affirmation of abundance and at the end a statement of appreciation for the abundance or success received.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all of the days of my life

This is both an insight of David’s deep relationship with God, one of both goodness and mercy, but is also a statement of faith.

And I shall dwell in the House of the Lord forever

This statement also affirms the eternal nature of the relationship that David shares with God. A child of God dwells forever in the house of his Father. This speaks to a commitment that spans time.

A Psalm is more an affirmation than a prayer. In saying this Psalm, you are expressing and affirming a deep relationship with God. This Psalm is one of the most popular because there is comfort in affirming the surrender to God and support of God as a guiding force in your life.

I invite you to fear no evil and enjoy the peace and comfort that this kind of relationship with God brings into your life.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Weaving In The Light

Genevieve Gerard

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

Healing Energy is Empowered by Love

Genevieve Gerard

Healing Energy is Empowered by Love

How to send healing energy from a distance

Everything, including our body and our thoughts, are energy.

Sending good intentions and good thoughts when someone is in need of physical, emotional, mental or spiritual help can be more important than you might realize.

Thought energy is particularly powerful and has been proven to influence matter.

There is a realm of reality that goes beyond the physical
where in fact we can influence each other from a distance.
– Deepak Chopra

This means that distance healing is not only possible but very real.

The world of matter has many limitations.

It is easy to get caught up in those limitations and begin to believe that the limited world of matter is all that is real. I believe nothing could be further from the truth.

There is a material reality of course. What you perceive with your physical sensations of hearing, sight, taste, touch, and smell are known to be real.

However, to believe that reality is limited only by perception would be to deny a deeper and more profound reality. By knowing the ways that energy works, you can open yourself to a reality that expands your consciousness. Therefore, you can live incorporating and using your full potential as a human being.

You can live in the world of matter, enjoying and appreciating all of the many delights that it has to offer. And, you can live in the world of energy and spirit and express the amazing freedom and power that it provides. Ultimately, I believe one of your goals, as you walk the earth, is to live simultaneously as fully human and as a spark of the Divine.

Love one another and help others to rise to the higher levels, simply by pouring out love. Love is infectious and the greatest healing energy.
– Sai Baba

Loves Role In Healing

This is of particular significance when you are engaging in healing across the miles or when physically separated from someone you love. If you have ever been away from someone you love, you know that the nature of love is unlimited by both space and time. Although you may miss their physical presence in your days, their absence does not diminish the love that you feel for them.

My Grandmother used to say, “Distance is to love like wind to a flame, it puts out the small but enkindles the large.” If you have ever been parted from a loved one you realize that physical distance does not impact love. Your love can flow across the miles without limitation.

Love is the empowering force for all energetic healing. It is this truth and this reality that enables you to do energetic healing at a distance. Since that connection remains in place, healing can happen no matter what the physical separation. You can have a positive impact on someone through the power of thought and intention.

The Souls Role In Healing

When you engage in healing at a distance, you are working in the realm of etheric energy and through the bonds of love and the connection between your Souls. This is especially true when you are sending healing Light, Love or Power to a loved one, but the same principle is true when you are focusing on healing for someone you may not know personally.

Remember that in all energetic healing, it is the Soul of the one who needs healing to whom you send energy. Ponder on this.
– Genevieve Gerard

This is a safeguard as it is their Soul that knows what is truly needed. This also speaks to the reality the Soul is ultimately in control in all crises that require healing. That the Soul is always a manifestation of Divine Presence, Divine Grace, and Divine Love also provides a subtle surrender to Divine Will that serves as a protection to the one for whom you are intending and invoking healing.

When connecting Soul-to-Soul you also have the added benefit of protecting yourself from taking on the physical, emotional or mental dis-ease of the person you are trying to help.

Intention & Invocation Roles In Healing

In all energetic healing, the intention is important. It is known in Quantum Physics that the intention of an experimenter influences the outcome of the experiment. Intention is energy; energy does not have any time or space constraints (unlike our physical senses.) Particles in our cells exist in a field of potentiality – meaning intention can influence the behavior of particles.

The very act of sending healing energy across the miles serves as an invocation. It is this merger of intention and invocation with the Soul connection that makes distance healing miraculously effective.

Because this work is energetic and spiritual it is free from the limitations of the world of matter. It is open to the invitation of healing angels or healing devas to enhance your efforts. You can add to the healing force your prayers. You can use the power of visualization by “seeing” the person as if they were whole and healthy. This focuses your energy on wellness and not the disease of ailment.

Right Action In Healing

Again, I stress that the energy you send for healing is sent from your Soul to their Soul enfolded in love. Always in healing, it is important to focus on right action for that person because the Soul has the wisdom and understanding about their lives and their lessons that you probably do not have. This is an import factor as you never want to use your personal will in healing another. Your thoughts and energy are there to support the process of healing, not control it with your personal will or desires.

Although energetic healing is not subject to any of the limitations of the material world, I have always found it helpful to know where someone lives or where they are physically in the world when I tune in to provide energetic healing. That may only have value as a mental tool to enable me to focus, but I have found it helpful over the years. That is a subtle difference in energetic healing from prayer where the invocation is a petition, versus being active in the healing process. Certainly, prayer is effective in distant healing and works.

Meditation Can Set The Stage For Healing

My gift to you:
Here is a quick meditation technique for Distance Healing that you should find helpful.

First, Calm Your Mind, Open Your Heart, Invite the Light.

As you calm your mind, put the week behind you, surrender your personal will and release your desires for a particular outcome.

Clearly, state that your intention is for the Highest Good of the one to whom you are sending healing light and energy.

As you open your heart, focus on the bonds of love that connect you. From your heart to their heart, realize that love is a powerful and tangible energetic force.

Let your unconditional love flow forth to provide them comfort and support. Trust that this is received and goes forth as an invocation with your intention.

Then imagine or visualize your Soul (with unlimited access to your higher source) as a golden white light 3-6 feet above your head.

Then imagine the Soul light of the one you intend to heal as a point of golden white light 3-6 feet above their head.

Along this energetic pathway, visualize the energy of Light, of Love and of Power gently flowing across the space that separates you physically, knowing that you are unified energetically through etheric substance.

If there are others joined with you in the desire to heal and help this person, build a network of etheric substance to empower the healing by imagining each of them as Souls, with their golden-white light radiating above their heads and link (in groups of three), your Souls to the Soul of the person that needs healing.

When finished, place your right hand over the left hand in a sweeping motion. This is the mudra of detachment.

Namaste

This triangulation of energy is a powerful force for good. The meditation can be expanded to include a larger group, adding in more triangles of energy and always Soul-to-Soul.

When you are also bound by love, such as with a close group, family or friends, you can also add triangle lines of energy from heart-to-heart, building an etheric network of love.

As a group, this healing network is even more powerful and has far-reaching implications, as you can participate in the multiplied healing efforts unlimited by either space or time.

By working in this way, through your Soul to their Soul, you will be able to join your energy with theirs for whatever healing result is right for them. It is important that you do not use any of your life force, but instead tap into the unlimited higher source provided through your Soul. It is important that when you work in this way that you do not let your desire for a particular outcome influence you. It is important to keep your personal will harnessed and only invoke what is right for them, understanding that the Soul is in control of both the outer form of life and all events.

Here is a Mantra that you can say that is helpful for this:

Let the Soul control the outer form and Life and all events
and bring to Light the Love that underlies the happenings of the times.
Let wisdom come and insight. Let the future stand revealed.
Let inner wisdom demonstrate and outer cleavages be gone.
Let Love prevail.
Excerpt from Invocation For The New Group Of World Servers
– Alice A. Bailey

Experience this meditation, the healing energy empowered by Love and become a powerful force for healing in the world. Let us know in the comments section below how this impacts you.

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

Ways To Heal Yourself

Genevieve Gerard

Ways to Heal Yourself

This is another article in my on-going series on Healing.

Healing happens on many levels of your being.

As you consider your life and all that has preceded this moment of time, I invite you to explore ways you can heal your life.

As long as there is life, self-healing is always possible. Healing is the highest manifestation of life itself.

To consider how you can heal yourself, you must contemplate how healing happens not only in your body but also in your emotions and your mind.

This threefold aspect of healing is ultimately under the guidance and direction of a higher source, your Soul. Therefore, it is through your connection with your Soul, that you can heal from any situation.

I know this is a bold statement, but I make it based on many years as a counselor helping others through the darkness into the light of new possibilities.

It is a deep truth that as long as there is life, there is hope.
– Genevieve Gerard

No matter what has happened to you in your life, you can heal.

Sometimes the darkness in your life is physical, such as a catastrophic injury. Sometimes it is emotional devastation, based on things you have seen or experienced. Sometimes it is the memories that the mind continues to replay that bring events from the past into the present. Sometimes it is dreams that haunt you.

No matter what has occurred in your life, there are a variety of techniques that were taught to me in the mysteries of the Ageless Wisdom that you can learn to use to transform, transmute and transcend what has happened in your life. This will enable you to open to the possibilities of a future which has not yet formed, which is in a process of being created and coming into active manifestation.

Steps You Can Take To Heal Yourself

Learn to Meditate

Meditation can play a vital role in helping you to heal.

In the last five years there have been volumes written in the medical journals, which have finally talked about the positive effects that meditation can play in your healing.

Meditation can help us embrace our worries, our fear, our anger; and that is very healing. We let our own natural capacity of healing do the work.
– Thich Nhat Hanh

It is through meditation that you can find a portal to your Soul, which is such a powerful and dynamic part of your essence that it can facilitate your healing. Ultimately, the Souls energy provides healing at the highest level.

Fortunately, your Soul is an integral part of you, a part of you that stands ready, willing and able to help you gain mastery of your body-mind and emotions. Opening to this Presence is the first step of joining with your Soul.

This opening can be as simple as to sit quietly as you calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light.

There are many guided meditations available that can provide you with self-healing techniques. It is not as important which products you use, as much as it is that you meditate.

Live In the Moment

An essential part of healing is bringing your awareness and consciousness into the present moment.

That is why an important step in healing your life is to let the past be passed. This may not always be easy to do; however, careful consideration will reveal that the past truly is passed and no good is served by living in your rearview mirror.

Understanding that living in the NOW is the truth that will set you free of the past is a powerful release. It is something that can support and help to integrate your healing. It is a reality that you can use to transform your life.

When you make that step in your consciousness, you are making an important step in allowing healing.

Reduce Negative Self Talk

Another important step forward in your healing is to release yourself from the all too damaging dynamic of reliving the past. Replaying past events in your mind only invites the event into the present and brings out your inner critic.

No good is served by reviewing, rewinding and reliving what happened. It is now in the past. You are free from it if you will let yourself be free. I invite and encourage you to do so.

Forgive Yourself and Others

To forgive yourself is an important step in healing. To forgive yourself opens you to a future that is still unformed and uncreated. In that future, you can be a force for great good in the world. In that future, you will be presented with choices. What you choose will ultimately be a greater determination of the value of your life than anything will that has proceeded this moment of forgiveness.

No matter what may have happened in your past you can heal. Whatever sorrows you may have suffered make your ability to be compassionate have a greater depth and breadth than those who have never known loss and sorrow.

This may not seem possible but since your Soul is by its very existence a part of the Divine it is composed of love and grace. Forgiveness is entirely possible at the Soul level, even though your personality might consider individual acts unforgivable. It is your Soul that does the healing.

In the words of the old spiritual, “there is no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.” Therefore, to ask for forgiveness is one of the steps in your healing and when you ask, do it by the full faith and confidence that nothing is unforgivable no matter how it might seem.

However, even more important is to accept grace and forgiveness. The nature of grace is that it has absolutely nothing to do with deserving it or being worthy. This grace is a part of divinity that may be beyond our human comprehension.

It is my experience that to allow the blessing of healing and forgiveness in your life, you must truly forgive yourself. This is not always easy, however; I know it is always possible. It is in this task that the healing power of your Soul can have the most power. Realizing that the past is passed helps. This is a simple fact that cannot be denied. Let yourself have the relief and release that this deep understanding about life gives.

To assist in your process of forgiving yourself, let me walk you through a guided meditation on How to Forgive Yourself: Release and Let Go Of The Past, Forgive Yourself, Heal and Move On From Painful Events.

Forgiveness is powerful and profound. It may even have multiple layers to it. Each knot that is unraveled and released by forgiveness is freeing. It may involve forgiving others you know. It may mean forgiving yourself and others that you don’t even know personally but may have been involved. No matter how many layers there are, ultimately it is possible.

Now is the time to start unraveling the knots and layers that may have you bound to the past. You can do it!

The Soul’s Role

There is a Mantra called the Mantram of Unification that I love. In it are the words that for me have always spoken to how important your Soul integration is, “Let the Soul control the outer form, and life and all events, and bring to Light the Love that underlies the happenings of the times.”

No matter what you may have feared. No matter what experiences you have lived through, your Soul has been with you through it. Whatever turmoil, no matter how terrible or tortured it may have been; there is nothing you have ever done or can ever do that will separate you from your Soul.

Whatever damage you may have suffered as a body, emotionally, in your mind or personality, your Soul, which is your spark of Divine Essence, cannot be harmed. It is always with you and can always be called upon to help you heal your life.

No matter how much you may have rejected or avoided its presence in your life it is ready willing and able to assist with your healing. It awaits your invitation to demonstrate its healing power.

The nature of your Soul is eternal. The essence of your Soul is Love.

Use Your Soul to Heal Your Life

There is a purpose to your life. There is a reason you are still here and alive. Therefore, it is to your Soul that I direct your attention. You can invite it, invoke it and use it to heal your life.

Because free will is a universal law, invitation to your Soul and invocation are necessary steps in opening your consciousness to the Presence of your Soul. Because your Soul is integral to your healing, consciously doing the steps (previously mentioned) to bring you greater awareness of your Soul (as a dynamic and powerful force in your life) is important.

Healing your life will allow you to fulfill your life purpose, which may bring about great good in the world. This is the unlimited possibility and potential that comes with your unformed, and yet, uncreated future.

When the past is relegated to the past, you are taking a progressive step forward. You can change your life. The more you release your anger, the more you forgive, the more you bring in the Light of your Soul to guide your next steps, the more you open yourself to enjoy the new possibilities and unlimited potential that are now unfolding and emerging for your life.

This ongoing and constant renewal of life give the promise of a future that is different from whatever may have happened before. Change is always possible. Healing is always possible. This freedom is inherent in life. It may not be easy, but it is always possible.

Open your life to the healing power and the transforming energy of your Soul. Heal your life of the residuals of past traumas to bring you to the new day that is available for you.

As the expression of folk wisdom affirms, “Today is the first day of the rest of your life.”

Choose to embrace the possibility and promise of the rest of your life by inviting and accepting healing into your life.

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

Lessons Learned From Injury and Illness

Lessons Learned From Injury and Illness

Insights into Healing

This is another article in my on-going series on Healing.

I dare say there is not a single human being who has not at some time in their life longed for healing, either for themselves or for a loved one.

Prayers for healing are a part of every spiritual path. Beyond prayers for healing are the hopes and aspirations for a life (ours or a loved one’s) to be blessed with the strength and the vitality of health.

The fact that onset of illness or injury often stimulates prayers for Divine intervention gives a hint into the higher purpose dis-ease can play in your life.

It is the intrinsic nature of God and likewise the Soul to in all things work toward good.
– Genevieve Gerard

It is hard to see suffering, injury or illness as a movement to the greater good, but I can say from the perspective of a healer, a teacher and a guide these experiences are often the catalyst that brings about great personal growth and transformation.

Having worked for many years with individuals through the challenges that injury and disease introduce into their life experience I can say with complete confidence that there is a purpose behind dis-ease. There are also lessons to be learned behind accidents that result in injury or disability. I have learned that healing is always possible. That these events or circumstances bring you to your knees in prayer or stimulates you to seek the healing power of your Soul is a significant factor. Ponder on this!

In many lives, the pain, injury, or disease or the possibility of death that underlies many a healing crisis becomes a transformational experience that creates opportunity for great growth.

This may be an unusual perspective on life experiences that are often feared and avoided, but after so very many years of helping people, I find this to be unquestionably true. In fact, over the years, this factor was so significant that I have given workshops and seminars for Doctors, therapist, health care professionals, and para-professionals on ways to help their patients both heal and come to an empowering resolution of these life-changing events.

In those days, I presented these ideas from a rehabilitation perspective and now I present them from a spiritual perspective but the message is the same.

I believe an injury, disease or disability comes into your life with a Higher Purpose. Discovering that purpose and aligning with that purpose often brings healing. This may sound strange but if you look at the people around you and most significantly at your own life experience you can sense the deep inner truth of that statement. To me, that has always been a comfort because I knew that when an individual got in touch with that purpose, miraculous healing became possible.

It was in my observation of these miraculous healings that I learned much about the working of the Soul and the healing power of the Soul. To see medical opinions having declared that some had only a very short time to live, and then see them go on to live happy and productive lives for years is amazing. Also to see someone with a severe and catastrophic injury be restored to a dynamic successful life stimulated me to learn more and understand more about the deeper nature of life and the role of the Soul in the healing process.

The role that God plays in these miraculous situations cannot be denied but neither can the role that the Soul plays. It is through observing the occurrence of miraculous events that I began to understand the co-creator role of a human being with the Divine. This dual dynamic of the Soul as the spark of the Divine that brings your life into right relationship with God, as a child of God, and observes that through His love and grace brings an activation of a wide variety of universal laws and principles, that makes real healing happen.

An invocation from one of my favorite meditation mantras says it best with the words.

Let the Soul control the outer form and life and all events to bring to Light the Love that underlies the happenings of time.

– Alice A. Bailey, Djwal Khul

Discipleship in the New Age, Vol. II (Mantram of Unification)

I have found when counseling and coaching people who are in need of healing that meditation can be used to support healing when it is focused on understanding their life purpose. This shift in focus can be very revealing.

Often it introduces new goals or creates a completely new direction. It is in this way that, a healing or health crisis is at times a significant life awakening that brings about transformation.

This change often starts with an alignment of Soul Light with your physical body, and emotions. It also may involve using the mind to gain greater control over the debilitating pain that so often accompanies injury or dis-ease. The Soul has controlling power over the body. This is often an inherent factor in healing.

Questions To Ask Yourself So You Can Heal

When asking for healing, either for oneself or a loved one there are some questions it is wise to consider.

Among these are:

What lessons are being revealed by the presence of the injury,
disease or illness?

What would be the best right action or outcome?

What restrictions of energy exist that may have contributed to the disease or illness?

Often clearing that energy block through insight, meditation and prayer can release the restriction so that your body begins to respond in a whole and healthy way. Releasing the blocked energy often requires insight and understanding of both the how and the why you have choked back the energy.

Do I need to forgive myself or someone else?

At times forgiving, either yourself or another can open the pathways for a natural flow of energy that can result in spontaneous healing.

As mentioned in the mantra shared above, the process of Soul or spiritual healing generally involves a bringing to Light what has held back the free and natural flow of energy. Prayer and the laying on of hands by those with healing intention are effective ways to stimulate the energetic flow that has become blocked or congested.

In any request for healing, I always recommend an invocation or caveat such as, “for the highest good of all” or “within God’s Will” or “in harmony with the laws of karma and the overall plan of evolution.”

These caveats clarify that the purpose of healing can be aligned with right action. Although it is difficult to consider, from the perspective of the eternal life of and nature of the Soul, the release of the physical body through death, especially when diseased and aged and losing the ability for healthy function, is a form of healing. That is why death is often seen as an angelic presence.

In the process of healing from the perspective of the eternal part of our being, death is a release. In saying this I am reminded of the words of St. Francis in his prayer “it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.“

The Soul is an integral element to all healing and works on all levels in natural alignment with both the implications of karma, the overall plan of evolution and in accordance with the highest good of all. Through its eternal nature the Soul has the wisdom of what is the right action in each and every life situation and circumstance and has complete and unconditional love for the one who needs to be healed.

Your Soul has been with you throughout all of eternity and will remain with you throughout the eternity that is still becoming. When it heals, it heals you on all levels and prepares you your next experience of life. Therefore, this union of you with your Soul is integral to all healing experiences in life.

This relationship of your Soul, God, and eternity are a part of the mystery and deep magic of life.

These are deep questions to be pondered, meditated upon and prayed about. It is often in the face of disease or the approach of the end of life that the peace of understanding and revelation are granted.

It is by surrendering to the healing power of the Soul that miracles happen, whether that miracle is the restoration of health and vitality or the entrance to the great adventure of eternal life. Ponder on this!

Namaste,

Genevieve

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

Meeting Your Guardian Angel

Genevieve Gerard

Meeting Your Guardian Angel

In the realm of the invisible, where your Soul resides there is a Presence that you can bring into your conscious awareness that is your Guardian Angel.

To begin to open your mind and your heart to a greater and more conscious awareness of the Presence of your Soul starts you on a journey of living within the full scope of your being with your Soul a part of your conscious everyday awareness.

One of the benefits and blessings that come with this relationship with your Soul is that you can begin to be aware of, and access more of, the invisible world that exists beyond the material world of spirit.

I think we all do have a guardian angel. I believe they work through us all the time, when we are thoughtful and good and kind to each other.
– Roma Downey

Within the dominion of the Soul are the angelic beings that are, like your Soul, connected with and supportive of your life. Perhaps one of the most significant of these is your Guardian Angel.

You can connect with and develop a relationship with your Soul through Meditation by the act of invitation and invocation. You can also open your heart and your mind to the impressions and guidance of your Guardian Angel.

Meditation is the portal through which you can experience and discover a world more magical and fantastic than you had ever dared to dream. The nature of your Soul is Love and as you develop a conscious relationship with your Soul that Love and that Healing Presence becomes ever more available to your conscious mind and awareness.

This Love is Divine Love and is therefore unconditional. It rejoices in the good that you do with no requirement that you do good. It is available to you but makes absolutely no demands, and it gives, in response to each time you invite it through meditation, exactly what you are ready to receive, no more, no less.

The same is true of connecting to Guardian Angels.

The footprints of an Angel in your life are Love.
– Genevieve Gerard

Your Guardian Angel made a commitment to you, to your life, and whether or not you ever choose to become aware of that Presence consciously or not, it is there for you.

In this way, your Soul Presence and your Guardian Angel are alike. Both are composed of the essence of Divine Love. Both Love you unconditionally. Both await in readiness and willingness your desire for relationship with absolutely no demand or requirement that you ever turn to them.

The full extent of this incredible nature of unconditional love is beyond the typical experience of our human consciousness. It reveals the truth that God is Love, and on some level may explain some of the mystery of how God demonstrates and expresses Love to us through the emissary of your Soul and your Guardian Angel.

So much of the true nature of the life of the Soul and the Presence of the Guardian Angel is a mystery because the concepts of eternal life and eternal commitments of Love are beyond what our human personality, ego, mind or even emotions can truly grasp.

However, when you open yourself, your mind and your heart to the experience of Divine Love, whether it is through prayer or meditation, the grace and the joy that accompanies that inflowing blessing can be amazing.

Just know that when you turn your attention to Divine Love it is available to you for the asking.

When you open to the Presence, whether it be to call upon your own Soul for greater relationship, insight or wisdom, or to call upon God in prayer or your own Guardian Angel, there is no wrong way to do it.

How To Meet Your Guardian Angel

All of the teachers and guides who have ever walked the earth in the annals of time can only share their wisdom and insight from the perspective of what worked for them or what was revealed to them. Although their teachings or my own can be used as a guide, this journey is unique to you.

Your Soul and your Guardian Angel are both deeply committed to you and your life experience so that you learn, grow and manifest the plan and purpose that guides all lives. That there are an overall plan and purpose of evolution is to me both comforting and inspiring. To call upon your Guardian Angel and your Soul to receive the wisdom, insight, and revelation to understand and support your manifestation and fulfillment of that purpose just makes sense. To leave such powerful and dynamic resources untapped does not.

My writings and my guided meditations provide you, to the best of my ability, an opening to these energies. However; the experience you get when you make the conscious choice to open yourself to your relationship with your Soul or your Guardian Angel is completely individual to you, and it is determined by your readiness and willingness to be receptive to it.

That said I will provide you with a simple technique to use to open the portal to meeting your Guardian Angel.

A Simple Technique to Meet Your Guardian Angel

As always, I remind you to Calm Your Mind, Open Your Heart, and Invite the Light.

Sit quietly and receptively with the intention to come into conscious awareness of your Guardian Angel. It is always helpful in meditation to have your spine aligned and your feet firmly on the earth.

Bring your awareness to your heart and imagine a connection of Light from your heart to the top of your head (called your crown chakra.) Imagine that Light continuing to ascend to a radiant point of Light 3 to 6 feet above your physical head (which represents your Soul.)

Realize that by doing that simple visualization from your crown to the Light of your Soul you are building, with intention and etheric substance, a rainbow bridge to your Soul that is called the Antahkarana.

Then say in your mind and heart this
Mantra of Invitation:

Beloved Come

Infuse . . . Inflame . . . Instill . . .

Incorporate in living substance,

All Thy Will.

Then I recommend sitting quietly and receptively for the next 10 to 15 minutes. In that time if you are keeping a Spiritual Journal (as I recommend) you may wish to record the impressions and insights you receive.

Remember that communication with the Angelic realm and the Soul comes in the stillness.

An attitude of gratitude for what you have received is also always a good idea.

Once the time you have set aside for meditation has passed return to your daily life and agenda knowing you are enhancing and empowering your life by keeping this sacred time.

I know that your life will be blessed by this intention and invitation to Meet Your Guardian Angel. This ability is your birthright as a child of God.

Namaste,

Genevieve
