Meditation and Meditation Practice is Fascinating!

I see the act of meditation and the practice of meditation as two distinct tasks.  I enjoy reading about meditation too, so maybe the study of meditation is also a task.  I find it all so warm, and funny, and educational, and inspiring.  

Although most of us see meditation as a practice connected to Yoga – at least that is my impression of the Western belief – meditation has been here for ages – with the earliest written record going back to Hindu scripts from 5000 years ago.  I feel that meditation is much older than that date.  When the first people gazed at the stars and wondered about life and the stars, they were meditating. 

Below is a paragraph from an article on Meditation, from soulcurrymagazine.com.  If you feel guided to read the whole article, it was originally located at http://soulcurrymagazine.com/sc/tips-inspire-creativity.html. Note that Soul Curry Magazine is no longer in business, which is a sad thing.

What tweaked my interest here is the whole idea of meditation inspiring creativity.  I find that when I meditate daily, at the same time, even for just 10 minutes, that I am more creative in my thinking than when I meditate daily at different times and for different lengths of time – or perhaps I simply don’t recognize my creative periods that are stimulated by those meditations.  Regardless, if meditation inspires creativity, then I believe that it is a worthy practice and one that should be pursued. 

MEDITATION INSPIRES CREATIVITY

Meditation Creativity
Every meditator is definitely a creator because he or she is creating the higher levels of consciousness within, and with this higher level of consciousness, all beautiful things will happen.

There is a profound relationship between meditation and creativity. A non-meditative person cannot be really a creative person. Now sometimes people are allergic to the word “Meditation”. What they don’t understand is that the real objective of meditation is to be in the right state of mind where concentration, contemplation and awareness manifest in the being.

Spirit Speaks - Alone Really Means All One!

 

Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
-from the Song “Alone” by the group, Heart

 

" Spend some time alone every day."
~His Holiness the Dalai Lama

 

"When you venture beyond identity, you realize that what you are is awakened consciousness. No longer a separate piece of the puzzle of life, but interconnected existence itself."  - J. M. Harrison

 

That’s it.  There is nothing more to say.

The Year Of The Dragon Begins February 10 2024

 

Picture is from the site - historyskills.com

In Chinese history, a calendar was created that differs from the calendar of the Western World.  Of course we call it “The Chinese Calendar”.  Each of the twelve animal cycles of the calendar relates to different animals and is associated with different year.  Dragon years include 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976, 1964, and 1952. 

The Year of The Dragon has the power to focus change on the world.  This power seeks out people that have lost or given away their power as well as people that have a strong conscience and love for the Earth and humanity.  These are the people that will use dragon power to shift and stamp out the corruption and selfishness that we are seeing on the planet today. 

There are many references that you can search for and read about the power of the dragon.  

Feel inside your body to see if dragon power is “powering” you up.

Many blessings,

Judy

 

Lost Souls

  I have often wondered about the term “lost souls” and what that means exactly.  While sitting in meditation, I asked about lost souls and was told that the world is usually in balance.  Some souls find their way quickly between this world and the next.  Others, seem to get distracted, and do not follow the path to the next world.  These are the lost souls.  A soul needs to be ready to move on.  Sometimes, they are distracted by those that are left behind.  Other times, they get distracted by other lost souls or even energies that urge them to stay and to work with them.  

The Angels talked about soul consciousness, gratitude, and the nature of souls as well as Oneness.  Much of the meaning gets lost in the translation to earthly terms.  For me, there was comfort in knowing that souls are never truly lost.  Angels and guardians are always tracking with them.  

Life is beautifully mystifying!
