Open Yourself To Being Guided By Kindness

Open Yourself To Being Guided By Kindness

Read Open Yourself To Being Guided By Kindness Serenity Sunday article by Genevieve Gerard

A standard can be applied to life’s many little decisions that can help you choose what is right and help you create a better world.

That is to let kindness be your guide.

It does not matter if others believe what you believe; you can be a teacher of your truth, without words, by simple acts of kindness.

Kindness demonstrates and teaches more than your words ever can.  As the adage simply states, “Action speaks louder than words.”

Kindness is a gateway to compassion. 
Compassion is a gateway to Love. 
      – Genevieve Gerard

For most, to live a spiritual life, to follow the teachings of Christ, can be a challenge as circumstances and events present themselves.

Anger, frustration and judging others as wrong or lacking in some way, are all too easy to do.  Deep in your heart and Soul you know that is not what Jesus would have done.  His teachings speak of forgiving many times, yet this may seem to be too hard to do.  To respond with kindness is somehow more achievable.

Therefore, I suggest simply allowing the concept of kindness to be your guide.

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.
      – Lao Tzu

Somehow, kindness is a simpler standard to achieve in your relationships with others.  It can be communicated in a smile or a random compliment to a complete stranger.  That simple act, even a random act of kindness, can have a profound influence on someone else’s life.

Often it costs you nothing to give.  Frequently, it does not require planning or forethought.  Kindness can provide hope to another that has become hopeless, or encouragement to someone who is lonely or discouraged.

A kind word and a kind act most often cost you nothing. It is a small way that you can make the world a better place.

None of us can ever know the secret burdens in the lives of others.  However, when we practice kindness we can have an impact and influence to ease their way.  Even though we may never know the result of our little gesture of goodwill, at times it may have a dramatic and transforming effect.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
      – Aesop

Kindness is a cornerstone of right human relations that builds and grows as it moves from one person to the next.  It ignites energy that can then be passed along.

Kindness requires no belief system.  It is a way to demonstrate your love and your joy with total strangers.  Although you may never know the influence a kind word has in someone’s life, it is a powerful way to share the spiritual blessings you have received.  It is a way that you can be an instrument of grace and compassion in the world.

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.
      – Dalai Lama

When you consider how you can emulate the lives of the great spiritual teachers of the world, it is easy to feel that they are so far beyond you that you have no chance.  You know your limitations.  Kindness is so simple and so easy that it is a way that you can be a spark of Divine Light and an emissary of Divine Love as you walk through your daily Life.

When you let kindness be your guide, many of the spiritual teachings are fulfilled.  It does not require deep understanding of theology or philosophy to practice kindness, yet it has a powerful influence.

Kindness is a way to demonstrate the qualities of Love and grace for others.  The wonderful thing about kindness is that it becomes contagious and when it becomes a habit blesses your life in return.

A kind act or a kind deed brings Light into an environment.  It helps dispel sorrow.  It loosens the bonds of fear.  And amazingly this happens spontaneously.

Kindness brings a response in others that emerges naturally.

Think about a time you may have been feeling a little down or insecure and a complete stranger offered you a very simple compliment.  Something said to you as simple as remarking “you have such beautiful eyes.”  Did that random comment by a stranger not give you a gift of support and encouragement?

Kindness is a way to pass that good feeling on.

I encourage you to try an experiment of noticing the lives of strangers around you as you engage in a practice of random acts of kindness this week.  Observe the way that it makes you feel to be kind to others.  Notice how their body language might change after your act of kindness.

Most of all, notice how the generosity of a kind word or kind act makes you feel.  For me, it is happier, more relaxed and less isolated in the world.

It is by giving we receive.  Through kindness, you can be the change in the world that you wish to see.  Remember to be guided by kindness, practice acts of courtesy, good will, graciousness, understanding, and tenderness.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Experience Praise and Gratitude

Experience Praise and Gratitude

Read the Experience Praise and Gratitude article by Genevieve Gerard

Words have power.

They each resonate with their own energy.

This is a part of the deep magic that was revealed in the opening passages of Genesis. God’s use of words was inherent in the process of creation. So too are your words inherent in the process of what you create in your own life.

Since we think using words, this is also a significant factor in the principle that “energy follows thought.”

When you choose one word over another, you are on a subtle yet powerful level choosing to experience the energy of that one word over another.

This dynamic of word choice can influence what you experience when you choose specific words.

This is always true and provides a significant hint for how you can live a deeper, richer and more joyful life.

Songs of Praise

In my life, I have found song to be especially potent when applied to expressing praise and gratitude.

There seems to be a spontaneous connection to feelings of joy and the words of praise especially when lifted in praise to God. This is especially powerful when you “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord.”

I can think of countless songs that will lift my spirit even in times of the darkest sorrow or despair. These are most often songs of praise. What songs move you?

When I was a young girl mundane household chores were dispensed with quickly and much more happily when songs of praise were sung while they were being accomplished.

My Grandmother and I would sing hymns and songs of praise while washing the dishes in the evening. This was a wonderful way to end the day. Remembering this is a part of what I wish to share with you today.

Praise can both lighten the heart and lighten the burdens you bear. Most songs of praise or prayers of praise are interwoven with gratitude. Praise can support you and help sustain you in both your life and your faith.

It is such a simple thing, that it is often forgotten or ignored.

In the very act of praise, you are affirming deep truths. By the act of affirmation and by expressing the gratitude that is so often entwined with it, you unleash a mighty force. This is true in your own heart, mind, and Soul.

Praise is not prayer, although there are certain prayers of praise. Praise is a unique expression of your relationship with another. It is an appreciation and celebration of the love and grace of that relationship. It is such a deep understanding of the loving dynamic of that relationship that your heart bursts forth with gratitude and joy.

When you focus on how wonderful God is and all the great things He’s done… is doing… and even will do in your life,
your natural response will be praise, adoration and awe. Don’t let yourself ever get used to it… stay amazed!
        – Joyce Meyer

Using Songs of Praise As a Meditation

Just as prayer is different from praise, there is a technique I have used in my life that turns praise into a meditation or meditative experience.

Choose a song that expresses the gratitude or joy you are feeling. One of my personal favorites that I have used many times in this way is “How Great Thou Art.”

Either play the song or sing the song, and each time really consider and listen to the words in the song.

I have found to set up the song to play repetitively creates a joy that impacts me and integrates me with my whole being and aligns me with the Divine.

Let the meaning deep into your heart. Let your listening become the meditative experience.

Let the experience of the song help you calm your mind.

As you do this open your heart to love, grace, and gratitude.

Invite the Light of your higher Self into your life.

The Lighter Side of Praise and Gratitude

You can also lighten this experience up by doing other things while you are doing this.

As you listen to music that invokes praise and gratitude in the background as you go about your day, allow it to permeate your consciousness without requiring your full attention.

You will find the praise becoming integrated within the energy of your home and your life in this way.

I have found this a very powerful way to influence your thoughts and your feelings in a subtle positive way.

Focusing upon the bounty and the blessings you have received will stimulate an expression of joy.

The more you praise and celebrate your life,
the more there is in life to celebrate.
        – Oprah Winfrey

Praise and the Law of Attraction

Praise is also a powerful way to activate the dynamic Law of Attraction in a way that both honors and affirms the source of the good we have received in the world.

It is not insignificant that the gratitude expressed in songs of praise also ignites the Law of Attraction in a way that is asks nothing more but delights and enjoys the bounty and blessings that have already been bestowed on you. It is an expression of both our gratitude and our faith.

It is fine well and good to praise God and raise your voice in thanksgiving and praise in a church service.

However, when you bring that expression of joy into your daily devotions, into your home, and then incorporate it into the simple activities of your daily life as a backdrop, it takes on a different energy. It becomes integrated into the experience and expression of your gratitude.

Ultimately, you attract more of what you are expressing.

Integrate Praise In Your Exercise

Praise can also be incorporated into physical exercise such as walking or running, much like meditation.

Praise can spontaneously align your body, your mind and your emotions with the powerful loving presence of your Soul.

It can bring you into a greater awareness of your relationship with all that is around you and with that awareness, you become more receptive to the oneness of life and the true meaning of love.

Dual Awareness

An amazing aspect of consciousness is that you can be concurrently aware of your body, your thoughts, your emotions and the expression and sense of your Higher Self.

This multifunctioning aspect of the self can enable you to let any or every activity in your life become a meditative expression to empower and enhance your life.

This principle of dual awareness enhancing your consciousness is inherent in each of my Meditations For Daily Joy activity based awareness guided meditations.

The Spiritual Side of Praise

Using praise as a way to enhance and expand your spiritual awareness uses these same principles.

You are by your nature as a human being multifaceted and multidimensional. That is a part of the miracle of your being that can be experienced and expressed in a myriad of ways.

It is the benefit of experiencing the power of this alignment to which the vast array of spiritual devotional techniques strive.

As many roads can lead to the same destination, so there are many ways to come into a greater integration of your body, mind, emotions and your Soul, each of which ultimately brings you into greater relationship with the Divine.

There are so many possibilities and paths to the Light that you can experiment and explore a variety of ways to expand your consciousness and awareness.

Thankfully, there is no wrong way to open your Self to the Divine. This journey from the darkness into the Light and from the unreal to the real is directed by a Higher Power.

Life is a glorious adventure of being and becoming. Celebrate, with gladness and praise and enjoy the journey. It is your life.
        – Genevieve Gerard

I invite you to enter with a spirit of joyful playfulness and delight into ever increasing, growing and expanding, enlightened awareness of the full magnificence and glory of praise and gratitude in your life.

Namaste,

   Genevieve

Pray To The Divine Mother For Healing

Pray to the Divine Mother for Healing

Read "Pray to the Divine Mother For Healing" article by Genevieve Gerard

This article is part of my ongoing series on Healing.

Today I am going to talk to you about connecting to the healing power and amazing love and grace of the Divine Mother.

The energy of the Divine Mother is archetypical and available to you when you bring the presence of the Divine Mother into your consciousness. As an integral part of the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) her power and her presence is available to you through your invocation at your invitation.

The Divine Mother is sometimes called the Holy Spirit and her presence is often experienced when people pray to Mary, Mother of Jesus.

The Threefold Flame

There is a light that shines beyond all things on Earth, beyond us all, beyond the heaven, beyond the highest, the very highest heavens.

This is the light that shines in our heart.
      – Chandogya Upanishad

The Divine Mother is associated with unconditional love, forgiveness, and grace and can be an active and powerful presence in your life. Many say she is more accessible in prayer and petition than the Father aspect of the Trinity. Countless across the world pray to Mary to intercede on their behalf with Jesus, the Son aspect of the Trinity.

Because Mary, the Mother of Jesus, has over the past two thousand years been the recipient of prayers and petitions to the Divine Mother, these energies have merged largely.

Yet, the Divine Mother as an eternal part of the Trinity remains distinct, as she is the eternal expression of the Divine Feminine, also known as the Mother of the World. This has been evident since the dawn of time.

In the patriarchal emphasis of church leaders in the past 2000 years it is through Mary, the Mother of Jesus, that humankind has reached the great love, profound forgiveness and vast unconditional love that is the essence of the Divine Mother.

When you consider and ponder on the prayer of the words of the Hail Mary prayed by faithful Catholics around the globe, you will see the powerful and profound way in which Mary, Mother of Jesus, has served as a representative of the Divine Mother to provide comfort, grace, and forgiveness.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee;
blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.

Amen

This powerful prayer invokes the presence of the Divine Mother who is known by many names, including the Divine Feminine.

As with all aspects of Divinity, the limitations we as human beings ascribe with names does not limit the power with which the Divine responds to our invocation and petition.

God, in the full power and glory of the Trinity, is available to you and to all human beings as a dynamic living part of the covenant that exists between God and mankind. This is a deep mystery and a profound truth.

When you call upon God, as the Father, as the Son, as the Holy Spirit or as the Divine Mother, God responds, undeterred and unrestricted by what words you choose in your petition.

God is not limited by our understanding of the nature of Divinity.
      – Genevieve Gerard

What I have come to understand about our human experience is that much of this is unknown to us and all of our feeble attempts, including mine, may fall short of the glory and majesty of what is real.

It is for this reason that I frequently, in my own meditations, say the Mantra:

May the Divine Self inspire me
and the Light of the Soul direct.

 

May I be led from the darkness into Light,
from the unreal to the real,
from death to immortality.
      – Mantram of Unity by Alice Bailey

To give you a glimpse and insight into the powerful presence of the Divine Feminine today, I have written an invocation to help bring the Divine Mother into your prayer or meditative experience in a way that will stimulate your conscious experience of the presence.

I invite you to experience this invocation, although it may be more a prayer than a traditional meditation, with an open mind and an open heart, dropping judgement and criticism and calling upon your own inner sense of truth and knowing.

This, like all meditations, is what is revealed from the promptings of your heart and the wisdom of your Soul. I make no claims that my thoughts and ponderings are the truth, but bring to you the opportunity to receive whatever experience is right for you to ponder and find your own sense of rightness and truth.

All I ask is that you say this invocation with the intention to bring the power and presence of the Divine Feminine (the Divine Mother) into your conscious awareness, your heart and your mind.

She will respond to that intention and invitation and provide you what you need from this experience.

A Prayerful Invocation
to the Divine Mother for Healing

Calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light.

Begin by taking in a very deep and relaxing breath.

As you breathe in, open your whole being to being receptive to the love, grace and healing presence of the Divine Mother.

With your next deep breath, consciously open your heart and make it receptive to Love.

With your next breath, consciously open your mind and make it open to insight.

With your next breath invoke and invite the presence of your Soul, which you could imagine as a radiant golden point of Light about 3-to-6 feet above your head.

As you breathe in a full breath, invoke and invite the healing power and the healing Presence of the Divine Mother into your life.

Know that invocation and invitation open a portal for you to receive the blessings and grace of Her Divine Presence.

As you exhale at the conclusion of the breath cycle, release from your mind and your heart any pain or sorrows you may have experienced from lack of mother-love or nurturing in your life. Let any sorrow, sense of lack or loss be healed in her awe-inspiring love and grace. Let her power heal you, relieve you, support and sustain you.

With one more deep, relaxing and satisfying breath, open your Soul Light to receive the tremendous power and grace of the Divine Mother, the omnipresent flow of Divine Love through Her from the Source of Universal Love, the transcendent essence of unconditional love.

Let Her Love fill your heart to overflowing. Let Her Love and Grace enfold you.

As you connect with Her Presence, place your needs for healing before her by invoking:

Divine Mother, Source of Divine Love and dispenser of the healing power of Grace, I place in Your gentle care my need for healing. In this life, many of my needs for the Unconditional Love and Grace that You bring into the world have been unmet and unfulfilled.

I now ask You to fill my heart with Your transcending and transforming Love. I now ask You to heal my life that I may attract Love and give Love freely.

The failures of my earthly mother may have left wounds and burdens that trouble my heart and may have created limitations and misunderstandings of the meaning, purpose, and power of Love in my life.

I ask that your Love erases and heal all hurts. Understanding that my mother’s failures may have come from her own lack of love in her life, I now forgive her as a demonstration of the unconditional aspect of Love that Your Presence demonstrates to me.

Make me an instrument of Your Grace. Help me to demonstrate in my life what it truly is to Love unconditionally, without attachment or expectations.

Before You Holy Mother, I place all of my needs for Your unconditional Love. Within Your loving embrace and imbued with Your transcending grace, I ask forgiveness for any and all of the times in my life that I have failed to Love.

Assured of Your forgiveness I am able to be at peace. Embraced by Your Grace I am strengthened.

The unconditional Love that Your Love demonstrates to me serves as a guide in my life for how to Love others. Your Grace and Your forgiveness demonstrate to me how to be compassionate and forgiving.

I affirm my desire to be an instrument of grace and love to others in the world.

Now, I open my heart, my mind, and my Soul to receive Your Divine Love to support and sustain me for the rest of my days.

As I accept and receive this amazing blessing, all wounds and damage created by a lack of Love or a misunderstanding of Love are offered up for Your healing power in Your healing Presence.

My life is transformed and healed by your goodness and grace.

As Your Love fills me, filling in every crevasse of lack or loneliness; I extend the power of Your unconditional Love and transcending Grace out to all who touch my life.

I open myself to the Divine Love that flows through You and invite and invoke that flow to be an omnipresent force in my life that I can demonstrate and share.

As I am One with You, my heart is filled to overflowing with Love.

I now sit quietly, calmly and receptively open to the healing power and presence of my Soul as I let my heart be filled. I rejoice and give thanks for the amazing blessing I have received.

Pause

I now sit quietly, calmly and receptively with my mind open to wisdom and insight about love that I may see and experience the truth. As I am freed from attachment and illusion, I am freed to really Love.

Pause

Any lack of Love that I have suffered in the past, any shortage of Grace I have ever experienced is now healed and removed from me with Your healing Presence in this meditation.

I know that Your Healing is complete and Your Grace is sufficient for all of my needs. I give thanks that this great blessing that I have received today is available to me at any time of my need when I come to You in prayer or meditation.

I ask that I may now be a beacon of Love in the world and a demonstration of Your endless ability to forgive and that I become a source for Grace and Compassion to all who touch my life.

This I offer in gratitude for Your Healing Power and Your Healing Presence in my life.

This Love and this great blessing are mine without limit. Each time that I share Your Love with others I am holding open the door of Divine Love for the ongoing blessing and nurturing in my own life.

Each time I offer forgiveness and compassion, I am holding open the door to the Grace and Forgiveness You make available to me.

It is by giving I receive and it is by grace I am healed, so that my life is ever filled with the joy of loving, and of being loved.

Pause

No sorrow can stand or wound can fester in the Healing Power of Your Divine Love once You have been called forth.

Let me be an instrument to focus Your healing power to those I encounter in need of Your Divine Love and Grace that You have granted me. This is a service I offer to You, and to the world in gratitude.

In gratitude and appreciation of the healing I have received, I vow to be a source of Love in the world that I can move forward in my life, free from past sorrows, filled to overflowing with Your omnipresent Love, Your limitless Compassion and Your gentle Goodness and Mercy.

 

Now take a few minutes to ponder on this great blessing and go forth to love and live and serve humanity.

The blessing of Love on all that you do!

Namaste,

   Genevieve Gerard

When You Want To Heal Someone

When You Want to Heal Someone

When You Want To Heal Someone - Serenity Sunday article by Genevieve Gerard

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

Whether you are a novice or a seasoned healer when you want to give healing Light and provide energetic healing there are some important things to keep in mind.

These healing (literally meaning to make whole) guiding principles can increase the effectiveness of energetic healing and protect both you and the one you are striving to heal.

However, there are some ways that you can make sure that in your desire to provide healing you avoid unintended consequences and assure that right action is the result.  These are some of the important understandings that can guide your efforts.  They also can serve as a protection for the one to whom you are giving or sending Healing Light.

You need to remember that healing is a complex process that involves many factors.  Many of the factors and the dynamics that have resulted in dis-ease may be unknown to you as the healer.  There may be a Higher Purpose to the dis-ease or an important life lesson that is being revealed to the person by the disease.

These reasons and purposes are usually not known to the conscious mind.  The reasons may be a result of karma or things the person facing the dis-ease needs to learn through the dis-ease or come to understand about their choices, their decisions or their behavior.

Healing, true healing, happens on multiple levels and may require layers of healing, physical, emotional and mental.

It helps if you understand, all healing is in the sole direction and authority of the Soul.  The Soul is the part of the spiritual anatomy that, in its role as the Divine spark within you, that gathers from Universal Source the atoms that become your body for you to be born.  There are a myriad of miracles and factors that influence this process.  There are universal laws that must be considered as a new life is formed for a new birth.  Your Soul remains integral and essential in all healing.   It plays a vital part in both allowing the dis-ease and healing the disease.  It plays a vital role in bringing to you what you need to learn from every life situation.

Throughout your life adventure, your Soul remains a part of you.  Whether you are ever aware of it, or whether you connect with it as a source of unconditional love, guidance, and support (as I recommend.)  It is always with you from your first breath to your last, where it returns to the Creator.  It is an integral part of you.  It is a part of you as your life is being formed in the mind of God and it is the part of you that is eternal and returns when your life is through, to the heart of God.

It connects you to your Guardian Angel.  It functions unseen and unknown to help you learn and grow in this life’s adventure.  It is fundamental in any healing.  It is the force to which a healer provides energetic healing.  As a healer, you use your energy and your love to enhance and support the work and purpose of the Soul.  I believe any different direction of healing energy will miss the mark.

It is always the Soul that heals.  That is something to be grateful for because the Soul is never disconnected from Universal Source (God.)  The Soul is by its very nature both aware of and in complete alignment with Divine Will.  That is an important protection for the one you seek to heal.  The Soul being united with Divine Source in the process of creating the substance of your life remains as the force that directs and empowers what is good and right.

Not my will, but Thine be done.
        – Jesus

It also speaks to a very important factor for when you are engaging in energetic healing.  It is essential that at all times you remain aligned with Divine Will.  This can at times be difficult when you are providing healing to someone you love, but this alignment and surrender to Divine Will is an essential part of energetic healing.  To provide healing to another without the possibility of harm requires detachment.  This is why effective energetic healing is often incorporated into prayer in which the “healer” prays for healing.  I always use in any request for healing the protective phrase “within God’s will and for the highest good” I invoke the healing of… .

It is true that thoughts are energy and true that “energy follows thought” in every aspect of life, including energetic healing.  However, this ability to surrender to Divine Will is a core part of the responsibility of an energetic healer.  Although it is not always easy to consider or remember, death can be a part of the healing process.

If you have ever been with someone, who has lingered on the edge between life and death too long, you will understand this statement.  Life extended at all costs is not a blessing.  There is a reason they call death an Angel.  If you have ever sat with someone at the end of his or her physical life, you will start to understand what I mean.  Death can be a blessing and a transition to the next phase of life. Ponder on these thoughts.

As I write these words, I am reminded of the last line of the St. Francis prayer, “And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.”  It is all too easy to fall prey to the illusion that physical life is the only life.  As one who may provide energetic healing, it is important to consider the whole experience of life, physical, emotional, mental and spiritual or Soul life.

Whenever you are providing energetic healing, you need to be providing the healing essence from the power and wisdom of your own Soul (which comes from Source) to the Soul of the person you are intending to heal.  This Soul to Soul connection takes the healing process into the realm of miraculous and removes your personality and emotions from the process.

Miracles are a part of life.  A miracle is always possible.  As a healer your Soul, and your access to life energy can be used to help facilitate the process of healing.  However, it is only when the energy and intention are attuned and aligned with the Soul of the person you are striving to heal, and aligned with the Light and Love of your own Soul which provides access to the energy to fuel a miracle and the healing is in keeping with the highest good and Divine Will, that healing is right action.

Since you cannot know the highest good or the Divine purpose for every circumstance, the detachment and surrender aspect of energetic healing are of paramount importance.  For this reason, it may be most effective to pray while you are “laying on hands” for healing, or sending healing Light or Love across the miles.

An affirmation that may be helpful to say is:

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 magnetize the ones I seek to aid.
        – Discipleship in the New Age: Vol I, page 213, by Alice A. Bailey, Djwhal Khul

A powerful way that you can safely provide healing energy to someone in need of healing energy and healing Light is to first imagine the Light of your Soul as a radiating Light three to six feet above your head.

The Light of the Soul Descends
Soul Light Descending

Then visualize that golden Light descending into your field of energy (your aura) into the top of your head, down into your heart filling your heart with Love.  You may then wish to let that energy flow into and infuse your hands.

Then imagine the same Soul Light three to six feet above the head of the one you are endeavoring to heal and visualize the Light of their Soul descending into the top of their head and moving effortlessly to the place in their body and there being that needs healing Light.

To further empower your endeavor, imagine the Light from your Soul connected to their Soul and build into your mind’s eye a third point of Light to represent the Light of Divine Will.  You might also want to imagine that, as a pure white Light emanating from the heart of the Christ, or Source.  Let that healing Light flow freely along the pathway activating and empowering healing on all levels, physical, emotional and mental in surrender to ‘Right Action” and the Highest Good of All.  Visualize the other person in their perfected health.

This image of your Soul, sending forth healing Light and healing Love, to the Soul of the one who needs healing, supported and enhanced by Divine Will and Divine Love is the fuel for miracles.

This combination of intention and surrender to Divine Will is what spiritual or energetic healing is all about.

The final step in this is gratitude for the healing that has taken place.  Thanks for the blessing of the healing is an affirmation of faith and assurance that whether you see it or not, or understand it or not, what is right action for that person is taking place.  The expression of gratitude is also an affirmation of faith that the requested healing is moving forward and taking place.

Then go about your life in the deep awareness that you have given all that is needed and the healing Soul Light will continue to work in keeping with your intentions and purpose.

Namaste,

What We Can Learn From A Childhood Prayer

What We Can Learn From a Childhood Prayer

Read What We Can Learn From a Childhood Prayer - Super Serenity Sunday article by Genevieve Gerard

The prayer that I am going to share with you is one that children have been taught to say before sleep for generations.

Importantly, there are deep meanings in these ritual words that should be pondered.

Although a short, simple prayer, it speaks to lessons and an understanding about life and relationship with a higher source.

This prayer was written over three hundred years ago and has endured the test of time.

So today, let us ponder and consider the deeper meaning of these words and what they teach about life and how they help you go to sleep in faith and with confidence.

Consider how this prayer with the faith and affirmation it provides, can help you surrender to sleep with assurance that you are safely held in the arms of love.

You have probably guessed by now what prayer I am talking about. It goes like this…

Now I lay me down to sleep.
I pray the Lord my Soul to keep.
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my Soul to take.

Meaning of the Childhood Prayer

Now I lay me down to sleep.

Now is the time to transition to sleep.  It is the intention to leave the day behind and enter into the peace and the blessing of sleep.  Sleep is a time of rest and restoration for you.

In sleep the body heals, emotions are processed and the mind reinterprets and gives insight through the process of dreams.  It is a very valuable and potent time in which your conscious mind rests and re-evaluates the experiences of the day from a very different perspective.

The process of sleep and the dreams that come are a very important part of your human experience.  Although well studied, the ultimate purpose of sleep and all of the levels on which it takes place is not fully understood.

What we do know is that sleep is essential for good physical health, emotional health and mental health.  Sleep is an integral part of your life experience and so to enter into the state of being that is sleep, is important.  To use prayer as a transition from waking to sleep is a way to calm your mind and prepare for the part of living that is sleep.

I pray the Lord my Soul to keep.

This phrase is a very simple affirmation that you have a Soul and you are, as you enter from conscious (waking) thought into sleep, reminded that your Soul is your link with the Divine and in God’s keeping.

Although you may not think much about your Soul, it is an integral and essential part of your being.  This most important part of you, the eternal spark of you, is placed in the safety and love of God’s keeping.

If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my Soul to take.

This phrase is a reminder and acknowledgement that you are an eternal being and that your Soul is the eternal part of you.

You are more than just a physical body, a mind and a personality; you are a miracle.  This understanding of the nature of life and death and the reality of eternity is a comfort as you are surrendering to sleep.

By the words “If I should die before I wake” you are addressing humankind’s deepest fear, the fear of death followed by the faith and reassurance that you are an eternal being when your say “I pray the Lord my Soul to take.”  This simple statement helps to release the illusion of death.  It speaks to a deep and eternal truth.  Life is eternal, you are an eternal being and your Soul forever rests within the love and grace of your Heavenly Father.

The Deeper Meaning of the Prayer

This simple prayer was for many of you, a nighttime ritual of childhood.  Rituals can be helpful and comforting in your adult life.  Recently I posted a Wisdom Wednesday blog to help people with sleep, in which the ritual of prayer before sleep was a recommended technique.

If you used the “Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep” prayer you probably also followed it with a list of those you asked God to bless.  This blessing of and praying for others is a powerful affirmation that God is in control of our life.  This makes the act of prayer an act of faith.

You may have repeated these words, as taught, without stopping to consider their meaning, their importance of what was being subtly said or affirmed.  You may have engaged in this nightly ritual without any consideration of what you were being taught about life, what you were being taught about God, or what you were being taught about your Soul.

Consider the very concept of using prayer as a way of connecting with God before you sleep.  Realize that once your conscious efforts of the day are over and you prepare to enter the peaceful healing state of sleep, you can turn everything over to God.  Your day is finished, your watch is concluded, you can now surrender control to God.  This opportunity to surrender to a Higher Power can be very comforting, allowing you to both relax and release the day.

This process of surrender is a way to let the day be past.  This putting that past into the past opens you to the unlimited potential of the next day.  It marks the line between what has been, what is now and what is emerging in the future.

Focusing upon your Soul, that Divine spark of your being that is for all eternity One with God can be both reassuring and inspiring.

Then, with the last line “If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my Soul to take” you are stating and affirming that your Soul, that which is eternal in your being, is returned to God when your life has passed.  This is true whenever this life is finished.  This becomes a simple statement of faith and what is real and true that you know on a very deep and archetypal level.

These simple statements of faith, assurance and surrender offer powerful truths that can be asserted as you transition from waking to sleeping by engaging your relationship to God as we release the reins of the passing day by calmly transitioning from day into night.

In this simple childhood prayer, you have affirmed deep principles and eternal truths that can be a comfort to you.

As you lay down to sleep, you are now free to let your body rest and be restored.  There is nothing you need to think about anymore today.  You are safe.  You have given those in your care over to God with your blessing.  You have let the past go with the conclusion of the day.

You can now be at peace.  You are embraced and held within the eternal as you let yourself receive the restoration and strength that sleep brings.

You can safely enter from the consciousness of waking, in which you try to be in control of your life, into the state of sleep with its dreams.

The “Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep” childhood prayer offers several significant affirmations of truth and faith and provides comfort and reassurance that you are an eternal being for whom life, sleep and even death are simply transitions of consciousness.

This prayer is, although mysterious, an amazing blessing you can celebrate as life, a gift beyond measure, a gift with which you and your loved ones are blessed each day.

Amen

Namaste,

Genevieve

Love Is The Greatest Law

Love is the Greatest Law

Love is the Greatest Law - Serenity Sunday article by Genevieve Gerard

In every spiritual journey, there come questions about how to live your life that is best in keeping with living a conscious and Soul infused life. Of course, humanity has pondered these questions since the dawn of time.

There are in every religion guidelines and rules that were created to help in those decisions of what is right, what is good. These guidelines often direct what is expected in a variety of situations or circumstances.

RULES AND REGULATIONS

In fact, many religion’s Holy Books contain a myriad of rules and regulations, laws that must be followed or at least considered by those who wish to live a spiritual life. However, guiding your life by laws and rules does not guarantee that you do what is right.

Some of these Laws are timeless. Some of the Laws are archaic and seem irrelevant in modern times, needing interpretation even to be understandable. It may be easier to think that all that is required of you to live a spiritual life is to “follow the rules” however, there is a higher calling. That is to let Love be your guiding law.

Although it is helpful to have guidelines for your behavior, sometimes rules can become an obstacle to living a life that brings you into ever-increasing awareness and expression of your Soul. As I write this post and meditate upon what helps or hinders us as human beings, it seems that just following laws takes you away from what living a spiritual life is all about.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF LAWS

When you consider these laws, I find it easiest if you divide laws into different types of laws.

Some laws are rules and guidelines for right human relationships, such as the 10 Commandments, a mix of guidance for what you should do and what you should not do.

There are also ancient laws from the Ageless Wisdom that direct you to live by principles, which are paramount, such as Harmlessness and Right Speech. These are not “Thou Shall or Thou Shalt Not” rules of conduct, but rather ways to lead your life for greater success to bring you into Right Relationship with others.

There are also in life and nature, Laws that govern life that cannot be changed or overruled. They always apply. They are impersonal but can be used to benefit your life when you understand them and grow in consciousness and live in harmony with these laws. A simple example of this would be the Law of Gravity, which can be harnessed to help you relax in meditation. It is always there. It is always true. You can count on it.

Similarly, some universal laws or principles can be harnessed for your benefit like The Law of Attraction or the principle that “Energy Follows Thought.” These can be life enhancing and life transforming but have much broader reach than just living your life by following rules. Understanding these laws can help empower your life.

Nevertheless, there is so much more than just following rules to living a joyful, happy and prosperous life. It is much easier to follow the rules and since you do not blatantly break the rules conclude that you think you have done all that you need to do. The rules, the laws, then take the place of you needing to be in right relationship with God, with your Soul, with your fellow man.

LOVE IS THE GREATEST LAW

These thoughts and considerations between the law and love are not new. St Thomas Aquinas wrote hundreds of years ago extolling the virtue of following, not a series of rules but Love as the guideline for right action and right relationships, between people and between you and God. His teachings have often been summarized into saying, “Love God and do as you please,” or in some translations, “Love God and do as you will.”

Certainly when Jesus was asked to clarify what was most important of the many laws that the Hebrews followed when he walked upon the earth he replied, “You should Love God with all your heart, your mind, and your Soul and you should love your neighbor as yourself.” I have always found this passage in the Bible most instructive for my life.

I have long strived in my spiritual journey to let Love be the guiding principle for how I live. To use Love as the determining factor in relationships with others and with my relationship with God seems a much clearer principle than a legalistic list of rules and laws. Jesus concluded, as St. Augustine later wrote, that Love was the most important guideline for your life, not Law.

To let love be the guide in your life and behavior is a higher standard. When St. Augustine wrote, “Love God and do as you will,” he concluded that if you truly loved God, what you do would honor and respect both God and others. This is also in line with many of the guidelines that are extolled in the Ageless Wisdom of Harmlessness and Right Speech as right action.

As Jesus taught, “God is Love.” When you express Love, you are aligning with the Love that God gives to you and the Love that is the nature of your Soul. It is Love that is the nature of your Soul and Love that is the basis of the “I-Thou” relationship with God that demonstrates the unconditional grace and forgiveness that so bless a spiritual life.

There are those who say that learning to Love is the whole purpose of living. What you learn when you truly love is one of the most valuable things in the universe. It is said that Love is the most powerful force in the universe and it “sets the spheres in motion.” Learning to Love, striving to Love, especially loving unconditionally gives you a truly extraordinary life.

When Love is considered as the way to conduct your life, many positive and significant factors fall into place. This is particularly the case in relationships with others and in what is experienced in your relationship with God and relationship with your Soul. Being in right relationship with God brings with it “The Peace that Passes Understanding.” Being in relationship with your Soul brings Love into your life for Love is the very nature of your Soul. Your Soul loves you completely, understands you completely and as it aligns with your personality, your mind, and your emotions bring to you a sense of well-being that is unique and powerful.

Joy is the spontaneous response to being in right relationship with your Soul. Being guided by Love, and the wisdom of your Soul opens your life to happiness and wonder.

Your Soul is the part of your spiritual anatomy, the spark of Divine Light that has created you, that is eternally One with the Divine. No matter what you do. No matter where you go. Whether you make major failures or mistakes in life or whether you are successful beyond your dreams, this unity of your Soul with God is unlimited by space or time. It is your birthright, and it is your essential nature. And Love is the nature of your Soul and the nature of God. THEY ARE INSEPARABLE.

This basic truth makes Love always the answer, no matter what the question. If you consider this, any ethical decisions you must make in life will be the right choice when you let Love be the guide. To demonstrate Love to others in light of what is truly loving is often a challenge. To make decisions in your life that demonstrate loving yourself is often a challenge. To extend that to showing your Love for God is an even higher standard. It is these considerations that are inherent in Jesus’s two great laws and St. Augustine’s moral shortcut of “Love God and do as you will.”

It is in the consideration of Love as the director of your behavior, that all the laws of any religion are fulfilled. To let Love guide you in your decisions can transform your relationships and can transform your life into a life of greater satisfaction and joy than you can imagine. So many aspects of what is so often frustrating in relationships disappear when you give Love and return Love.

Issues of forgiveness, compassion, and understanding fall naturally into place when Love is applied. If you love God with all of your heart and your Soul and you are loving to others and loving to yourself you are automatically living in agreement with the Ten Commandments, and the rules and codes of conduct created from ancient times into the present.

By doing this you honor the “Golden Rule.” Your actions follow the teachings of the Ageless Wisdom of harmlessness and right speech. Right action and right relationships are automatic when Love guides all that you do.

Let Love be your guide and it will fulfill all the laws.
– Genevieve Gerard

Love is not passive. It is an active and dynamic force for good in the world. It is strong and supported by the Will to Good. To live Love, you are bringing peace and goodwill to the world. It starts a chain of events that makes the world a better place for all.

In today’s often violent and dangerous world, it is good to consider the strength of Love and the power of Goodwill and the “Will to Good.” Love is not weak, and it can stand up for and protect with power, but never hate or negativity. Learning how to live this aspect of Love is vital to a peaceful world. Helping others to not harm themselves or others is a part of loving intelligently with will and wisdom.

LOVE AFFIRMATION

Since “energy follows thought,” it may be helpful to say and use this affirmation when you consider how to relate with another.

“I Love You.”

 

By Loving You I wish for you
only what is good and beneficial to you.

 

In all that I am and all that I do with you
I strive to honor and respect who you are.

 

I know we are different people with different needs.

 

I love me and strive to honor and respect myself
doing what is good and beneficial for me,
physically, emotionally and mentally.

 

I Love God and in all that I am and all that I do
I strive to express and demonstrate that Love.

AS YOU USE THIS AFFIRMATION, CONSCIOUSLY CONNECT WITH YOUR SOUL.

Using this affirmation as a guide to determine how Love is best served in any situation in life will be empowering for you. Ponder on this!

Namaste,

Genevieve

Namaste Means

Namaste Means . . .

Namaste Means - Genevieve Gerard - Super Serenity Sunday Article

Namaste is an ancient Sanskrit blessing.

It is said that Sanskrit is the most ancient of languages.

Sanskrit has been called the Universal language, as the basic building block of all language is contained within Sanskrit. It was the language created to communicate with God. The Gayatri, which is known as the first and oldest prayer, was created in Sanskrit.

Simply, Namaste is derived from namas = salutation, bow + te = to you.

You might have noticed that I end all of my posts and meditations with this ancient blessing. Today I would like to share with you the profound and essential meaning of Namaste.

Namaste is both a greeting and a blessing. It is an acknowledgment of a deep truth about whom and what we are as human beings, especially in relationship to the Divine and with one another.

It is pronounced “Na ma stay” with the first two a’s like the first “a” in “America” and the ay as in “stay”, but with the “t” pronounced soft, with the area just behind the tip of the tongue pressing against the upper-front teeth with no air passing.

When you say Namaste to someone, you can press your two hands together, palms touching and fingers pointing upwards, thumbs close to your heart (or brow chakra) and bow your head gently as you face them.

Thus, it is both a spoken greeting and a gesture, a Mantra and a Mudra. The prayerful hand position is a Mudra called Anjali, from the root Anj, “to adorn, honor, celebrate or anoint.”

The hands held in union signify the oneness of our dual cosmos, the bringing together of spirit and matter, or the self meeting the Self. It has been said, that the right hand represents the higher nature or that which is divine in us, while the left hand represents the lower, worldly nature.

Great power is released when we greet one another with Namaste because using that greeting is an affirmation of an old mystical truth of our essential nature. Excavations for Indus civilization have revealed many male and female terracotta figures in Namaste posture. These archeological findings are dated between 3000 BC to 2000 BC.

Namaste is simply interpreted to mean, “The Divine spark in me recognizes and honors the Divine spark in you.” This is a powerful thought because it affirms that as human beings we are One with the Divine. In many cultures, the Namaste greeting is acknowledge by a bowing of the head and in some cultures even a bow.

I honor the place in you where Spirit lives
I honor the place in you which is
of Love, of Truth, of Light, of Peace,
when you are in that place in you,
and I am in that place in me,
then we are One.

It is good at times to transcend the habit and ritual of things to consider their actual meaning. I have often thought it is significant, that this bowing and ritual greeting is so widespread across cultures. This greeting speaks to your unity in the human experience as all being children of God who are endowed with the spark of Divine Light as an integral part of your being. It affirms your humanity and your Divinity as co-creators with God.

The reason why we do Namaste has a deeper spiritual significance. It recognizes the belief that the life force, the divinity, the Self or the God in me is the same in all. Acknowledging this oneness with the meeting of the palms, we honor the God in the person we meet.

In saying Namaste, we greet, honor and acknowledge that great truth. And, as we bow or greet another, we celebrate the unity in our human experience. The logical conclusion of the Namaste acknowledgment is in the awareness of the fellowship we share as the children of God. We are One Humanity.

As we acknowledge this essential brotherhood, compassion for our fellow man ignites in our hearts. We are united by this profound understanding of life. Our perspective can expand to consider how to relate to one another in light of this identification of the other, as a walking living breathing manifestation of God.

It makes all of humanity your brothers and sisters and makes every good and service that you can provide to them an act of service to God. It encourages the important principle of harmlessness as the guide to your actions and relationship.

Namaste is not a meaningless or simply a ritual greeting. It is the declaration of a great truth. When you treat others in a way that expresses and honors that truth, you have made a significant step toward right human relationship which includes right speech and right action.

These dynamic ways of interacting with our fellow man and women, of harmlessness, right speech, and right action can become a guidepost for all relationship behaviors. Relationships guided by these principles are in keeping with the Namaste greeting. The more you live by these principles, conscious, aware of your Divine spark, and the Divine Light within others, the more you create a world of peace and joy that allows fulfillment and success for everyone.

When you walk through your days, as your eyes meet others, greet them with a silent Namaste and at that moment offer the recognition and affirmation of the Divine spark within.
      – Genevieve Gerard

As you say Namaste to those you meet, you are also acknowledging and aligning with the Divine spark that is within you. You are confirming and asserting the truth that we are all Divine Light, beloved and blessed, as you bless and greet others.

This simple greeting and gesture is an affirmation and an invitation to great joy.

This little thought takes very little time, it happens as fast as “energy follows thought.” Doing this sets up the basis for more harmonious and satisfying relationships. You are in this way also serving as a beacon of Light in the world. You are sharing your Light and joining your Light in acknowledgment and community with others. You are blessing them and blessing yourself. Ponder on this!

You may also find that this greeting and affirmation will increase your personal sense of joy and wellbeing. Connecting with others through the conscious expression of the meaning of these ancient words will serve to increase your sense of unity that reminds you that you are not alone in the adventure and journey of living.

Giving a blessing, or greeting someone with the acknowledgment of Namaste, has an incredible impact on your day. I invite you to try this and observe how it influences your experiences.

To further support your understanding of the meaning of Namaste, I would like to share with you a YouTube video recently shared with me in response to my “Mystery of Eternity – Magic of the Soul,” article.

To watch this 4-minute video on YouTube directly click Namaste.

It was the sharing of this beautiful YouTube on Namaste, that prompted me to finally write and share with you my thoughts on the meaning of Namaste.

With my heartfelt appreciation, I bless and honor you and appreciate you as the Divine Light that you are from the depth of my Soul, the Divine Light and Divine Spark within me.

Namaste,

   Genevieve

The Blessing of Love on All that You Do!

P.S. The word “Namaste” can also be used as a closing notation (without the accompanying prayerful hand and bowing head gestures) in written communications similar to “sincerely,” “best regards” or “love.”

Weaving In The Light

Weaving In the Light
-Working in the World for Good

Weaving In The Light - Genevieve Gerard Serenity Sunday Article

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

Connecting with Soul Light by 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 Genevieve Gerard post about the New Group of World Serverslearn 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

Ways To Connect With Your Soul

Ways To Connect With Your Soul

Read Ways To Connect With Your Soul by Genevieve Gerard

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

Connecting with Soul Light by Genevieve Gerard

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:

  1. Lighting a white or gold candle. If you choose this, having a special or specific candle is usually recommended.
  2. 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.
  3. I begin all of my guided meditations with an instructional invocation:
    Calm your mind, Open your Heart and Invite the Light.
  4. 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

Understanding The Power Of Mantras

Understanding the Power of Mantras:

With The Mantram of the Soul

Understanding the Power of Mantras - Genevieve Gerard Super Serenity Sunday

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

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

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

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

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

The Light of the Soul Descends
Soul Light Descending

 

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

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

 

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

  1. You use the power of intention.
  2. You use the power of affirmation.
  3. And, you use the powers of invocation and evocation.

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

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

The Mantram of the Soul

I am the Soul

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

And also Love, I am

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

Above all else, I am Will and clear design

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

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

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

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

That Light I Am

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

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

 

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

  1. “I am the Soul” — You have identified with your Soul using the power of identification, and you have affirmed that identification.
  2. And also Love I am” — As you have continued with the power of identification and affirmation you have added the power of invocation, which adds power of clarification.
  3. “Above all else, I am Will and clear design” — You have now invoked the will, not only identifying with it as you invoke it, but also affirming it and defining it.
  4. “My Will is now to lift the lower Self into the Light Divine” — You have now directed our creative intelligence by your Will and further affirmed the intention of the personality to connect with your Soul not only by invocation and evocation but also by the power of clarification and description.
  5. “That Light I am” — This statement affirms that in addition to being a personality who invokes your Will and directs your intention, you are also identified with that which is Divine, the Soul. You are both simultaneously the creator and the created.
  6. “Therefore, I must descend to where the lower self awaits my coming.” — The “I am” of the Soul–Love, Will and Clear Design–affirms that it has heard the invitation of the personality. It has been invoked, it has been evoked, and therefore it must respond. It must make itself available to your personality. Moreover, the personality knows this and in complete confidence and assurance, simply waits.
  7. Now, having reached the point of the fusion, the Soul energy circulates from the place of the Soul (often visualized as a point of Light about three feet above the head, because the Soul is most often perceived as residing in the upper reaches of the higher mind in your etheric body.)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Such is my Will.

This is simply the reality affirmed.

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

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

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

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

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

Namaste,

Genevieve

Calm Your Mind

Calm Your Mind

Read Calm Your Mind - Serenity Sunday Article by Genevieve Gerard

Calm your mind,
Open Your Heart,
Invite the Light

 

These are the instructions that I use at the start of every guided meditation that I create.

When I reflect upon what characteristics best exemplify a spiritual life, I realize that the qualities of patience, kindness and calmness are key virtues for us to strive to develop in our life.

I believe you can best manifest these qualities as a reflection of your experiences received in meditation. The practice of meditation and ultimately the discipline of meditation, focus you on calming your mind.

Quieting your mind is an ongoing challenge for those of us who practice meditation, no matter what form of meditation we practice.

It is only in the quiet mind that the full peace of the serenity of our Soul can be experienced.”
     – Genevieve Gerard

It is in the quiet mind that we can open ourselves to the wonder and the Oneness of the Universal Presence. It is in a quiet mind that the promptings of your spirit guides and guardian angels can be heard. It is in the quiet mind that intuition can be truly revealed.

The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom.
     – James Allen

Releasing Anger

Calming your mind requires an active manifestation of the important principle of detachment, because to achieve that blessed state of calm you must disconnect from and release any anger you may be carrying, which will automatically bring you in touch with forgiveness. This forgiveness often needs to focus on those who have annoyed you, whether with petty acts or grand, but in order to extend the grace of forgiveness to another; you will find you must also extend that forgiveness to yourself first.

This contradiction of that by giving we receive has been revealing itself more and more clearly in my recent meditations. It seems to be an important principle. Ponder on this. It is very empowering.

This release and this resolution of whatever anger you have been experiencing combines with a spontaneous ripple effect of shifting your awareness away from the events that made you angry. This does much to bring calmness to your mind and quiet the chatter, by letting go of expectation, demands or desire.

This movement in your consciousness from expectation, desire, and demand, to letting go of your anger enables you to forgive both the other person and yourself. By this act of forgiveness, you will accomplish a great step forward in calming your mind.

All of this can occur in a nanosecond once you consciously turn your attention toward the content of your mind chatter and the emotions that are locked within it. You might find that this process is enhanced by taking a really deep breath and exhaling fully. The deep breath not only enhances the experience of the release but it also works with the physiology of the autonomic nervous system as the deep breath signals the body-mind-spirit connection that you are now safe to be calm.

Concurrently, your being is interwoven with the influences of your mind, your emotions, and your Soul. The release of the anger and the dual decision to forgive both yourself and the other person spontaneously opens your heart to experience more love.

Open Your Heart

This opening of the heart is the second instruction that I give each time I introduce a guided meditation.

When you open your heart with a quiet mind love rushes in.”
     – Genevieve Gerard

The initial focus to calm your mind has a cascading benefit that is like domino’s falling bringing greater benefit and blessing.

When you open your heart with a quiet mind you are able to both give and receive more love. The heart becomes an open receptacle for the love your Soul brings to you and the love that is available to you from God or Source that is your birthright as a child of God.

Your heart opened makes it possible for you to love without demands or conditions. In this state of openness the qualities of compassion and kindness are stimulated in your consciousness.

Compassion, like forgiveness, cannot really be given, without also being received. This interrelationship and interplay of energies do much to bring about the desired effect of calming your mind. The combined factors of letting go of desires and expectation, and the resulting release of anger, by stimulating forgiveness of both the other and yourself, all shift your awareness and render your heart open to receiving and expressing love.

The initially stated intention to enter into meditation by calming your mind has opened you to all of these blessings.

The second injunction that I give at the start of every guided meditation to open your heart began automatically as you let go of your anger in the process of quieting your mind; forgiving yourself and the other.

To consciously choose to open your heart in the approach and intention of meditating does much to expand and enhance your experience of meditating. By adding the power of intention to what you are experiencing and adding the wisdom of understanding, the power and influence that meditation can have in your life will be significant.

Invite The Light With Meditation

The last instruction I give with each guided meditation is to invite the Light.

Inviting the Light is a step to enlightened awareness. Enlightenment is expressed in the peace, the calm and the love and the joy which becomes a state of being offered to all who tread upon the path of meditation.

There are a myriad of benefits and blessings along the way. Among these are the now undisputed health benefits of meditation. Meditation has been proven to reduce physical stress. It can also give you a different perspective and a sense of Universal Oneness. In addition, the transformation available to your life as you learn to forgive both yourself and others can be very powerful, very profound and very freeing.

The integration of all of the talents and tools that you have as one who has a body (an amazing and complex source of delight and sensation), emotions (a rich and diverse portal to enjoyment and happiness) and a Soul (the gateway to joy and bliss) is a miracle. It is the miracle we call human life. It is a miracle with which you are blessed. And because we live each life of this miracle blessed by free will, it is a miracle that we are empowered to make of it what we will.

In my life meditation has provided the way to harness and to calm my mind as I receive the blessing and benefits of a calm mind. Meditation is the tool that has enabled me to forgive both others and myself. It is how I have conquered the stresses, the strains and the pains in life. It is how I have utilized universal laws such as the Law of Attraction and the dynamic opportunity to be a co-creator in my life through the principle that Energy Follows Thought.

There is no work I can do that I believe to be more important than teaching about and creating meditations. There is no gift or service that I can give that offers more opportunity to help you live your life in joy fulfilling your potential and promise, manifesting your Soul purpose.

In my adventure through the lessons of my life, meditation is the foundational pillar upon which I build. I am far from perfect. I often fall way short of whom and how I would like to be. I am a work in progress and will remain a work in progress all of the days of my life.

For me, meditation is the way I progress along the path. Mediation has become over the years a practice that has given me so much, taught me so much and exposed me to so much that my joy and my love overflow into so many aspects of my life that my gratitude for this great gift to all of my teachers and guides along the way is unlimited and ongoing.

I wish this great joy and this blessing for you:

Calm Your Mind, Open Your Heart, Invite The Light!

Namaste,

Genevieve
