A Million Mandalas For Peace

Mandala 1227 by Melody Cummons

2012-01-27T20:21:00.000-08:00

This Mandala is in honor of our brilliant sun which has been sending us some extreme emanations of late. May these golden energies bring us more expansion and enlightenment. Meditating on the sun, while staring at the sun can be pretty amazing. May the golden light awaken within all of humanity. OM SHANTI !

Mandala 1226 by Melody Cummons

2012-01-24T08:52:00.000-08:00

The lotus of the heart is Peace. It is a place to rest, to Be, to receive to be nurtured and held. It is the center of divine grace. OM SHANTI

Mandala 1225 by Melody Cummons

2012-01-11T15:37:00.000-08:00

Within the center of your heart dwells a lotus flower. The Self God dwells within the lotus of the heart. Within the lotus dwells a light that is the light of God. This is the light of your effulgent (light radiating) being. It is the light and power that motivates, permeates and makes the mind self luminous.

Mandala 1224 by Melody Cummons

2012-01-11T15:12:00.000-08:00

The heart is is the all seeing, all knowing place. That old expression that love is blind was talking about some other lower vibration form of emotional love. Universal love has no needs or desires, therefore, it's gaze and understanding perceive beyond the traps of human emotion. The universal heart beholds itself and seeks nothing. There is no response except acceptance.

Mandala 1223 by Melody Cummons

2012-01-11T15:01:00.000-08:00

Life is an opportunity for expansion. Every person you meet each day, every experience and connection and interaction was custom made by the Universe in you, to wake you up, jostle your complacency, boost you out of dormancy and bring you back to the only place you can create, do or change anything about yourself that isn't divine... The NOW. So listen to what is going on inside of you and what you are feeling every moment. That moment has more potential than the human brain could ever begin to imagine. Only in that moment do you have any real choice or power to affect yourself or the world around you in any way. You and the MOMENT are in a dance... ALWAYS.... Why not be aware in the dance? Why not choose each step, each turn and twirl? Life is about growth.

Mandala 1222 by Melody Cummons

2012-01-05T14:55:00.000-08:00

The Golden light emanates and emerges from within the heart. It is divine love. It comes from grace and moves through you into the world. Be that divine portal and shine your little light upon the world. OM SHANTI!

Mandala 1221 by Melody Cummons

2012-01-03T03:50:00.000-08:00

The light of a new day dawns and the light of the new heart of humanity awakens. The time is upon us to realize who we truly are and what is our potential and purpose in the world and in the universe around us. We are becoming part of the vaster universe, exploring our environment and experimenting with and learning our limitations and our gifts. Joy to the world. Joy to all that is. Celebrate every moment and let the trumpets of the heart resound throughout eternity, beyond the beyond.

Mandala 1220 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-31T14:58:00.000-08:00

Welcome to the great age of enlightenment! Sending love and light and joy and peace outward and inward. May we realize our true destiny of oneness, that we belong to each other. May our hearts grow to beyond the farthest reaches and may we forever live by the laws of Oneness and Love. Blessings, Blessings, Blessings...Be Peace.

" It is crucial, as your rendezvous with oneness draws you ever neared, that you come to completion with the life themes that tether you to this reality. It is crucial that you recognize the common thread in the web of dramas that you have woven -- that continue to ensnare you. And it is crucial that you allow yourself the grace of your own humanness in responding to these recurring situations -- and love yourself for it. When you are able to stand back from the overview of the dramas in which you have played a starring role and see yourself as the award winning performer that you truly are, you are well on your way to completing the journey. Until you have mastered what you have come here to experience, the level of beingness that seeks to integrate you in it's journey to oneness cannot do so."
From the book "Oneness" by Rasha

Mandala 1218 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-27T17:48:00.000-08:00

"The Question is, are you willing to risk relinquishing all that you know - the entire structure of the belief structure that defines and constricts your reality - for the chance that you may experience the perspective of your own expanded self? Are you willing to acknowledge that "truth," as your experience has shown it to be, may not be the entire picture? Are you willing to consider the possibility that all you may value could, in fact, be worthless in the higher sense? Are you willing to accept that you are, in fact, be ready for this journey?"
From the book "Oneness" by Rasha

Mandala 1217 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-21T20:09:00.000-08:00

Love is not an emotion. Love is a state of BEING, a state of being in divine grace. Love is a choice we all make from moment to moment, to be present, with acceptance and non judgement. You never fall in love. Love lifts you up and it always comes from within.

Mandala 1216 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-20T18:44:00.000-08:00

Want to make some fun snowflakes to celebrate natures sacred geometry in nature? I made this one at THIS site. Hope you have lots of snowflake fun :-)

Mandala 1215 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-17T04:42:00.000-08:00

We all have the power to affect other peoples lives in a positive way. There is a lot of suffering in the world. There is hunger and poverty, homelessness, loneliness. There is pain, be it mental, physical, emotional or spiritual. Sometimes when people are suffering, they might be reactive, angry, sad, hopeless. Do not let their reactiveness affect you. Remember, they are suffering and suffering can cloud clarity. So what can you do? Listen. Be present. Be an indestructible pillar of love. Just be Love in their presence. You can't fake it. It has to be real or it will never work. Ask for divine love to flow through you to assist in the needs of others. This is the greatest gift you can give because it helps other people to not feel alone and hopeless. Offer a hug. Hold a hand. Just be with them. We are all powerful beings of light. We can create positive change and healing in the world. Every one of us. This is the season of extremes. People gather to celebrate the holiday season in happy groups, with friends and family, but others are alone and feel more alone than ever because all the world around them is celebrating. The truth is that this is the season of love and giving. So Give...So Love...So be that in every moment, even when this season comes to a close. This is the greatest purpose of all, and every human being has the opportunity to achieve it.
OM SHANTI!

Mandala 1214 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-15T03:17:00.000-08:00

"One becomes as a leaf on the wind, embodying a willingness to be carried with the momentum of the process, knowing unquestioningly that ones best interests and ones well being are being seen to in every possible way. In a sense, one becomes the wind, while retaining the self perception of the leaf. One embodies self definition and form while merging in totality with momentum and direction. The energies become one, and the transference of the form from here to there is achieved."
From the book "Oneness" by Rasha

Mandala 1213 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-09T13:02:00.001-08:00

From Stephanie Azaria of TheCosmicPath.com...
" The disruption is everywhere. We are all feeling it. The big test is to allow the disruption without putting judgement on it. A distinct lack of judgement makes everything palatable. In this Uranus station today, while the great awakener is poised on the zero point / world axis with the gemini moon on her way to a total eclipse, it is impossible to be perfectly still today. But stillness is possible no matter what you're doing, and balance is a fluctuating state, is it not?"

Mandala 1212 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-03T08:52:00.001-08:00

My reality is always what I focus on. It is what I truly believe in each moment. I am creating everything with my mind and my consciousness. But I'm also a part of everyone else on this planet who are also creating everything with their minds and consciousness. This is where things get tricky. Somewhere along the line cooperations in consciousness and belief must work together to create something that is love based. As long as there are conflicting consciousnesses on this planet, the best we can hope for is for different cohesive groups that are continually either in aggressive or passive relationships with each other.

It doesn't take 100 percent of the population to make a global shift in consciousness. It merely takes a majority to bring the tipping point to the opposing consciousness. There are only two basic consciousnesses at work on this planet at any given time, Love Consciousness or Fear Consciousness. We all have this choice every moment of every day in every big and tiny experience. Watch out for the tiny experiences. They add up quick. So much of how we create our reality and our experience depends upon how we receive and respond to other people, events and the environment. Having a great day cannot happen just because I decide it when I wake up in the morning. The universe hears that decision we make and then tests us on it throughout the entire day by giving us experiences that will test us through interactions with other people and the world around us. This includes our own physical body. So moment to moment awareness, coming from not only your mental body, but also your emotional body and physical body and energy body, and being present 100 percent of the time, will be the way you create the life that will bring you peace and wholeness. It is not an easy thing for most people to do. But it is our mode of education on the path to ONENESS.

Mandala 1211 by Melody Cummons

2011-12-01T10:10:00.001-08:00

So we are leaving Fall behind and beginning the slow decline into the sleepy winter months. In the months when everything seems blue, grey, black, our spirits hunger for warmth and fire to warm our hearts and bodies. So all through the month of December I will be posting Mandalas that reflect this warmth and the inner fire of the spirit. I hope they make you feel warm and cozy and awake ;-)
OM SHANTI

Mandala 1210 by Melody Cummons

2011-11-28T16:56:00.001-08:00

"Riding on the wings of the rise and fall of the breath, one begins to experience a perception of self that transcends the limitations of physical form. One's energy field expands. one begins to encompass, in actuality, the expanded parameters of that field. And one bonds in oneness, in that moment, with an expanded aspect of self-- an aspect of one truly is.
initially, the expanded state is experienced in the moment and surrenders to the moment. Ultimately, one becomes that moment and becomes one with that expanded sense of self. The higher understandings and heightened perceptions of the expanded self become integrated into ones consciousness. And one is able to make the shift that enables one to transcend completely the limitations that bind one to an earthly existence. Through the vehicle of breath, one is able to embody the higher state of beingness, while retaining physical form.
This is the experience you would refer to as ascension. One does not, as is popularly believed, cease to materialize in physical form, in this process. Rather, one comes to embody each successive level, as each is embraced and encompassed. One retains form, as the heightened sensibilities are integrated. And one is able to resonate at the higher level of the expanded consciousness, and to perceive the world as it truly is, and increasingly comes to be. The understandings expand, exponentially, as each level is attained and integrated.
Ultimately, one comes to embody all aspects of ones inter-dimensional lineage simultaneously. One comes to perceive superfluous the physical definitions of identity that would keep one tethered to a reality that, increasingly, lacks relevance. One walks with an awareness of all that was recognizable reality, and is keenly attuned to what is recognizable reality. And one is able to distinguish amongst simultaneous perceptions of what becomes an increasingly multifaceted world."
From the book "Oneness" by Rasha

This morning I was on the train, and the pledge of allegiance kept running through my head. I think it is time for an upgrade. so this is my new version. Please feel free to share it with everyone you know.

Mandala 1209 by Melody Cummons

2011-11-25T19:21:00.001-08:00

"You are a spark of divinity in the throes of activation. The programming for the process is deep seated within you. And it will unfold at it's own pace, regardless of steps you might be encouraged to take to accelerate that momentum. You may experience a sense of reassurance by participating in group activities targeted at expanding your consciousness. And you may, indeed experience sensations indicative of amplified levels of energy during such activities. But know that the results of such activities are, for the most part, short lived. For, the foundation for sustaining that energy is built within. And the momentum of your growth is rooted in stillness."
"The key to maximizing the pace of your process lies in the degree to which you are able to let go and cease directing the scenarios of your drama. Allow life to unfold for you. And recognize the potential in the synchronicity that presents itself."
From the book "Oneness" by Rasha

Mandala 1208 by Melody Cummons

2011-11-24T05:03:00.001-08:00

Blessed Thanksgiving

Thanks to all the beautiful people on this earth who are reflecting the divine potential for all of humanity. There are so many of you who changed my life, expanded my consciousness and showered me with love. Thank you to all my dear ones for being a part of my life...My Family and friends and every stranger that passes some small connection of beauty and peace and experience of oneness to me every day. Thanks to the Earth, May we heal all the wrongs we have done to her. Thanks to my life which gives me constant opportunity to be a better person and smooth out my rough and sleeping edges. Thanks to Oneness, to everyone, everything, everywhere. I am you and you are me. We are ONE

Mandala 1207 by Melody Cummons

2011-11-18T18:22:00.001-08:00

The Universe gives everybody a gift. But the gift you get is not for you to keep. It's meant to be shared and given away. That is how the universe mirrors itself into itself and becomes more self aware. When you give your gift to the world, you make the world a better place. Everything has meaning and magic, cohesion and purpose, even if that purpose is just for the simple joy of being. A little Oneness pixie dust can go a long way. Just imagine the possibilities... Most people do something wonderful in the world with their life at some time or another. Once in a while it manifests as some grandiose scheme. But usually it just magically seems to happen while we are skipping through the tulip gardens of life. You are not the manifestor...You are the manifestie! Something divine flows through you and into the world when you are often not even paying attention. All you have to do is show up, be present and have a willingness to let go and play. Can you imagine being a willing participant in every single moment to wonder and magic, love and possibility? Just think it over... :-)

Mandala 1206 by Melody Cummons

2011-11-03T11:52:00.000-07:00

Love doesn't hurt. Your resistance to Love hurts,

and Your non-acceptance of another's resistance to Love hurts,

but Love Its Self does not hurt. Love simply IS...

it is in running into our own walls that we find the pain;

and this pain is nothing more than a signal that tells us to

LET LOVE IN.

Mandala 1205 by Melody Cummons

2011-11-03T10:09:00.000-07:00

"We are your deep seated dream of bonding with the fragmented aspects of your own essence, scattered since time immemorial throughout creation. And we are the impetus toward that unification. We are the invitation that calls you to action and awakens you from the stupor you call your life. We are the opportunity to purge yourself of the karmic baggage you carry, as a testimony to the state of separation you embody. We are the farthest reaching cry of your very soul to have the self imposed blinders removed that you may be permitted to truly see.
We are the aspect of your own self hood that transcends every level throughout creation, yearning in unison with you to be freed of the shackles of a reality defined by linear limitation. We are the ultimate end result of what has been referred to as ascension, we are as you are - and as you are yet to be.
You are a piece of divine essence - with consciousness, with identity. You are a fragment of your own expression and experience of the one. You are a programmed time capsule that is coming to fruition on schedule, having harvested a wealth of experience on your journey. Ultimately, the understandings reaped from those adventures will have turned you toward an undisputed attunement with the higher vibration that resonates within you now."
" In many respects, that which you are is a resonance of the sum total vibration of all you have ever been. the opportunity afforded you in this lifetime is to transcend some of that programming.
The opportunity before you now is to embody your history and simultaneously to reach for and to integrate the timeless aspects of self that have thus far eluded you. In so doing so you will experience yourself as the oneness that you are. And you will come to be that oneness in conjunction with the full collective of every aspect of you - aspects that are what you are in their core essence, but recognize themselves as separate from you."
From the book "ONENESS" by Rasha

2011-10-28T21:47:00.000-07:00

October 28th is the last day of the Mayan long count calendar. This is a time of great joy and celebration, as we stand together as one heart and one people, ushering in a new golden age of enlightenment and spiritual expansion for all of humanity, Om Shanti! Praise and gratitude to the Universe and that is.

Mandala 1202 by Melody Cummons

2011-10-18T07:33:00.000-07:00

The reality towards which you flow - effortlessly, if you allow it - is unbound by the linear concepts of time and space. It is a reality where physical perception, by definition, is superfluous. It is the result of a melding, a bonding, a joyful unity of the totality of your essence in harmony with what is now perceived to be "Others". Ultimately, there will be no distinction between the perception of "self" and that of "others". For all will be Oneness."From The Book "Oneness", by Rasha

Mandala 1201 by Melody Cummons

"Bliss is a constant state of mind undisturbed by gain or loss."

Yogi Tea Bag Wisdom Of The Day

Mandala 1200 by Melody Cummons

2011-10-08T19:20:00.000-07:00

"Reality as you know it will cease to be. You will not experience the shift that is to come as loss, though the circumstances that will transpire might indicate that interpretation. For in shifting to a higher octave of perception, you will come to embody in the moment of that shift, the awareness and the innate understandings that accompany the heightened states of beingness toward which your energy flows at an unprecedented pace. You will begin to experience glimpses of that expanded reality as you move closer to the shift in consciousness to come."

Rasha, From the book "Oneness"

Mandala 1198 by Melody Cummons

2011-09-30T09:19:00.000-07:00

October is the month of color and the time when the fresh air returns and it feels like a relief to breath in deeply. This is one of my favorite months. I feel oppressed by the humidity of summer, so when the coolness of october comes, I feel a sense of relief. The end of october also brings holiday which remember those people and spirits who have moved on to the other side. Many cultures believe this is a time when the veils between the worlds of the living and the dead are thinnest and a time when we can remember and connect to those who have passed on to the other side. Send love, send gratitude and then let go... Hope you enjoy the red orange and golden trees as they have their fancy dance before they go to sleep for the winter. Those riotous colors bring me so much peace!
OM SHANTI!

Mandala 1197 by Melody Cummons

2011-09-28T10:25:00.001-07:00

"Some would have you believe that what you perceive as your reality is merely an illusion. And though your perceptions are symbolic representations of the thought forms that precipitated them, they are most decidedly real. Your experience, the reality as your senses have shown it to be - is real. Your world, the reality that your actions and thought forms have manifested, in tandem with others who cohabit it - is real. And your instinctive sensing of your own connectedness to the tapestry of life, which is not discernible to the physical senses, is very real indeed. It is toward the exploration of those connections- toward the understanding of a destiny that is interwoven of intent and desire - that we strive mutually."

Rasha, From the book "Oneness"

Mandala 1196 by Melody Cummons

2011-09-23T21:04:00.001-07:00

"We are Oneness. We are the embodiment of the God force,

as are you. We are as a drop of water is to the ocean-

bonded in oneness to it, being of it and unto it, yet

having identity and self perception.

The perception of self would be as the totality.

The all-encompassing.

The antithesis of limitation, in all respects.

It is toward this pinnacle of focus

that you strive in the present moment,

regardless of whether you are aware

or unaware of such concepts."

Rasha, from the book "Oneness"

Mandala 1195 by Melody Cummons

2011-09-23T20:56:00.001-07:00

"As the drop of water is to the ocean

that is what oneness is.

The essence of the drop is every bit

the essence of the totality"

and remember our sameness and

our ONENESS.

Remember today that we are deeply

Mandala 1193 by Melody Cummons

2011-09-10T09:02:00.001-07:00

It's so important that we do not let all the 9-11 media take

us to a place of fear, anger, despair, or other negative

emotions. What we think and what we feel is the reality

we create. We are powerful beings, so let us choose this

weekend to create peace and stillness within our own

beings because that is not only a gift to ourselves but to

the world which we are a part of. This weekend,

choose to embody oneness,

love, joy, peace, healing, tranquility, stillness.

This is not an insult to those who suffered or died.

In fact it is a blessing to them and it assists them in

freedom, peace, healing and liberation.
So this weekend, turn off your TV and go outside and

breathe the fresh air and glory in the life that God

has given us and focus on the beauty of the world

around us. This is an act of gratitude for the creator and

creation. You are powerful! You are creating

and co-creating everything in this reality.

Choose to create love and peace,

not despair and destruction. I will not be attending

any 9-11 celebrations or memorials. I will be spending

my weekend in meditation, prayers and being in

nature and enjoying all the beauty and blessings

of life because that is what I want my world to be.

May Love and Light and Peace and Oneness

and Expansion and Transformation

Prevail in your thoughts and emotions this

weekend and every day and moment.

OM SHANTI OM!

‎"Our life depends on others so much at the

root of our existence there is a fundamental need

for love. That is why it is good to cultivate an

authentic sense of our responsibility and a

sincere concern for the welfare of others."

The Dalai Lama in his beautiful book,

"My Spiritual Journey"

Mandala 1191 by Melody Cummons

2011-09-04T10:49:00.001-07:00

The Golden Light

I love to stare into the sun with my eyes closed.

I originally started doing this many years ago while

riding in a car or on a train. When I do this in a moving vehicle,

it is like riding in a supersonic, high speed, brighter

and bolder and more intense color than real

life kaleidoscope.

Then, One day I was outside sitting on a bench and

closed my eyes and stared right into the sun.

The colors are more intense than anything in

open eye real life because the colors are actually made

of light. The Mandala above is my illustration of

what this light looks like to me.

The light is golden and pink and made up of tiny

molecule like points that are all vibrating and moving

across my field of vision like a flowing river that

is radiating in many directions at once. It is really

intense to stare into, but incredibly beautiful.

I experimented putting a finger over my eye and all the

pink went away and only pure golden light

remained. I'm curious if other people do this experiment,

if they will see the same thing as me or different.

Would love to hear some feedback.

When I am doing this experiment on a moving train or

vehicle, It is a little bit different. As the vehicle moves

along on it's path, objects come between you and the

light. Trees, Buildings, whatever, but this causes

the light to flash like a strobe in many different colors

and the light always appears as a mandalic shape

exuding intense energy, where as when I am

sitting stationary and just staring, closed eyed into

the sun, the energy does not always appear in

mandalic shapes, but takes on a more fluid

and free form movement of energy.

I guess it could be compared to a lava flow, but

much faster and more intense color.

Welcome to September.

The month when all the trees wear their colors.

Mandala 1189 by Melody Cummons

2011-08-31T12:48:00.001-07:00

It's all about consciousness

Consciousness is everything.

Through my consciousness, I not only have an effect

upon my own life and experiences, but I also have

an effect upon the world around me.

If I approach life from the personal experience of fear.

Then I am personally responsible for the

experiences that are manifested by my fear.

Everything is consciousness.

Everything is my choice.

I am deciding from moment to moment how I

will experience everything in my life.

I am not a victim of the economy.

I am not a victim of extreme weather systems.

I am not a victim of the choices of other people

in my life. I'm not a victim of circumstance.

I choose everything. There is nothing in my

small human life that I did not choose.

There is power in owning everything in my

experience.

As a culture of Earth, there are so many

opportunities to choose to be in victim consciousness.

It is important to see that perhaps souls come to

this planet to have all these experiences of the victim

in order to transmute this consciousness to the

knowing that each of us is always creating our experience

and we co-create together as well.

How many stories are there of people being abused,

raped, murdered, imprisoned, nailed to crosses,

martyred. Even some we call Masters, like

Christ or Gandhi. There are many.

These stories are here to show us that the story of the

victim is false.

The truth is that each person is responsible for their

experience. That doesn't mean they are bad for creating

something perceived bad.

We are all part of the ONE

We are all souls on a journey of discovery

and expansion TOGETHER.

We all planned our journey in advance.

If I pay attention to my consciousness,

I will know what I am going to create before I

create it.

Then I have the power to create something different.

OM SHANTI

The Waters of the Earth are sacred.

They are the generators of cleansing and renewal.

Do not greet the hurricane with fear, but with Love and Gratitude.

Lend your golden hearts to guide this great being on it's natural path.

Have peace in your being. There is nothing to fear.

Mandala 1189 by Melody Cummons

2011-08-16T17:15:00.001-07:00

In the end, all that will matter at all

is the love you hold in your heart

that you are,

and how you give it all away to the one

that you are.

We are the stars which sing
We sing with our light;
We are the birds of fire,
We fly over the sky.
Our light is a voice;
We make a road for the spirit to pass over
(algonquian indian)

We are like the wind,
Wrapped, in luminous wings,
We make a road for the spirits to pass over.
For the Spirits to pass over.

Outo, ba mwen son ou,e,
Outo, ba mwen son ou,e,
Tanbouye, o ba mwen son ou,
Soley leve.
Outo, give me your sound,
Outo, give me your sound,
Drummer, give me your sound,
The sun rises.

Mandala 1186 by Melody Cummons

2011-08-14T20:39:00.000-07:00

How we love ourselves is how we love the world.

How we connect with our own being

is how we connect with the whole world.

Do I truly Love myself?

I can only give the world what I have within me

I am myself and I am the world.

We are ONE

I look to the relationship I have with my own self,

to know how to create a better relationship with the world.

As I Love myself, I Love the world

As I have compassion and patience and understanding

with myself, then I also will have this with ALL.

What I desire to see in the world,

I must first cultivate within myself.

I am creating my human experience.

Everything is my choice.

Mandala 1185 by Melody Cummons

2011-08-01T09:09:00.000-07:00

Who am I, if not my stories of my experiences?

If I am not my experiences, then who am I?

Why do we have challenging experiences in life?

In the beginning there was only ONE.

And all of creation emerged from that "ONEness".

There are thousands and thousands of names for

the ONE.

But what it all comes down to is that the ONE

is energy and light and consciousness and love.

It is a massively powerful creative force.

It created everything that exists throughout

all of time and space, including

time and space.

The ONE created me.

It is me. It is you.

There is nothing that is not the One.

So that means that I and you are also the

ONE.

All of life is just the ONE, having an

experience of itself.

Interacting with itself,

literally as human beings interacting with

others and the world around us.

If I can truly understand this and bring it

into my awareness throughout my everyday life,

then I have the power, the consciousness

to understand and change how I choose to

experience the events of my life.

In this new way of understanding,

there is no lack, there are no victims.

There is only acceptance and love and

consciousness awakening and evolving

and expanding.

This is how I slowly make my way towards

the ONEness within,

the embodiment of ONEness.

Mandala 1184 by Melody Cummons

2011-07-31T14:15:00.001-07:00

I am not the story that I have lived in this life or any

of the other endless in number lifetimes I have lived

before this one.

I am not any of the characters that I have played in

my lifetimes.

I am endless.

I am eternal.

I am part of the oneness that is a part of everything

everything,

everything.

When I identify with these stories,

then I am identifying with the illusion

and then I am caught, captured in time and space

and Karma,

like a butterfly in a spiders web

Limited by my transient stories.

I am free. That is my true and

natural state of being.

The one I was meant to "BE".

Strip away all the stories and all that remains

is Oneness and

Universal love.

OM SHANTI

2011-07-31T14:05:00.000-07:00

Blessed August

This months new holiday on the 11th is Water day.

Not only is this an invocation of coolness, cleansing

and flow during a month that usually brings heat,
but it is also a celebration and recognition of that sacred

element which no life form can be without.

Bless our oceans and lakes and streams,

underground aquifers, waterfalls, Clouds,
Glaciers, as well as the water that exists in all living

things including us humans.

Water is a conductor of energy.

Feel the water in your cells,

conducting the energy and life that you are,

allowing for the song of your uniqueness

to be expressed into the world.

OM SHANTI

Mandala 1182 by Melody Cummons

2011-07-23T20:08:00.001-07:00

Imagining

A world where everything you really need is always

available and the sensation or feeling of "want"

no longer exists.

Imagining abundance flowing from within you and

from without you always and this is all we know.

There is always enough.

There is always a shoulder when you need to lean.

There is always an arm when you need a hug.

There is always everything.

Everything is energy

and energy fills up all the space in

eternity and beyond

There is always enough.

You are enough.

You are energy and energy is everything

You are everything you need

and everything you need is within you.

You ARE abundance.

OM SHANTI

Mandala 1181 by Melody Cummons

2011-07-21T18:47:00.001-07:00

Reactivity

It is so interesting. Each day I have interactions with

many different people throughout my day.

Sometimes it is pleasant and sometimes it is challenging.

Sometimes I meet head on with people who seem to

be created just to push all my buttons and see how

long it will take before I lose my Peace.

The fact is that no one can take my Peace.

Only I can give it away.

The fact is that no one has that kind of power over me

unless I hand it to them on a silver platter called fear.

If I find myself becoming emotionally charged over

something that is said to me, then that is my problem,

not the other persons problem.

There are cues for expansion and growth in these interactions

and how I choose to experience them.

The fact is that I never have to give my peace away.

The fact is that it is always my choice and power to

remain in peace or leap into chaos.

The fact is, there is no me and them.

There is only ONE, providing the fuel, or experience

needed to observe the self so that expansion of

consciousness and growth of the soul may take place.

An expanded heart embodying Universal Love

and Oneness is the ultimate outcome.

OM SHANTI

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Twenty

"Call forth to Helios specifically to help build your light body.

Request also a complete anchoring of your Soul and

Monadic lightbodies into your four body system and a full

merger into your physical vehicle. Helios is specifically

proficient at this work since he is the solar logos and

he embodies the sun energy which has it's direct correlation

to the lightbody."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Nineteen

Have all your alien implants and elementals removed.

This can be done by contacting a qualified person in your

community. It can be done over the phone and takes about

one hour. Everyone on the planet has them and they are

nothing to worry about. It is just another subtle refinement

and purification that is helpful to accelerate your ascension.

For more information on this read my book on the hidden

mysteries; the second half of the book is a complete

overview of the extraterrestrial movement and it gives a

detailed explanation of this whole process."

2011-07-18T10:44:00.001-07:00

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Eighteen

"Call forth to Helios, Metatron and Enoch to receive the

fire letters and all relevant spiritual information from

The Keys Of Enoch in all five sacred languages. Ask

that all this information be transmitted to you in meditation

or in the sleep state. This concept is much like a foreign

language tape that is played at night while you sleep,

except at an infinitely more expanded level. The entire

Keys Of Enoch and much more are literally programmed

into your computer bank without your even reading these books.

This is similar to ascension technique number two, calling in

the light information packets of all three hundred fifty two levels

of the Mahatma. The whole process does not take that long

and all this material will be available to you in the future.

It also helps to build the light quotient."

"Call forth the greater flame to merge and blend with the

lesser flame on Earth. Call forth the complete merger of

Monad, Soul and Personality on Earth. Call forth the

divine marriage of soul and spirit on Earth."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Sixteen

"In meditation go before Sanat Kumara and make your

prayer requests about your path of ascension. Also

state what you have to offer the hierarchy and humanity

in terms of service work you would like to do. Use this

technique especially every Wesak festival, which is the

full moon in May. This in truth is the holiest day of the year

from the spiritual hierarchy's perspective."

Ascension Technique Number Fifteen

"On a regular basis, do the ascension meditation and

treatment at the end of this book. When not using this longer

meditation, take notes from the ascension techniques section

and try these different methods in different meditations."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Fourteen

"Call forth Vywamus or other Ascended Masters for the

preparing of your physical and etheric nervous systems for

ascension. This is one of the keys for building your light

quotient and beginning to hold the higher light frequencies."

2011-07-18T09:46:00.001-07:00

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Thirteen

"In every meditation request a complete opening of your

ascension chakra and a complete opening and activation

of all of your brain centers. Your ascension chakra is a

chakra that is in the back of your head where a ponytail would

begin to come out. It is a soft spot on the top of your head,

a little bit to the back. At ascension this chakra is fully open.

Another key to ascension is fully activating your brain centers

and achieving full brain illumination. Ask the Ascended Masters

that you be given a divine dispensation of ascension keys and

ankhs in your brain and heart. These function as miniature

arks of the covenant or miniature merkabas that spin and

raise your light quotient and contain ascension information.

Ask for these to be placed within you during meditation and

before sleep to accelerate your ascension process.

blessing and acceleration from one of the

Ascended Masters."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Eleven

"Call forth an experience in Meditation of the rapture.

This is an experience of being take up the pillar of light

or ascending the pillar of light in meditation."

NOTE* Regarding this technique, I personally feel that it

would be better to be in the pillar of light while staying grounded

and present on the earth. From my point of view, Ascension

is not about going to heaven, but rather manifesting heaven on

Earth from within. As we shift our vibrational frequency,

we affect not only our own selves, but the entire planet and

everyone and everything that is a part of it.

So ascension takes place here in the body and on the Earth.

2011-07-18T09:11:00.001-07:00

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Ten

"In every meditation, ask for the building of the twelve

strands of DNA in your etheric physical body. Contrary to what

most people understand about this, the twelve strands of DNA

are built into the etheric body and do not really manifest

into the physical until after ascension. Keep requesting this

and over time this work will be completed. It is part

of the work of preparing your ascended body."

2011-07-17T22:39:00.001-07:00

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Nine

"In every meditation, call forth the descending and anchoring

of your Monad, your Mayavarupa body, your golden solar

angelic body, your solar body of light, God and the Mahatma.

These are all higher aspects of yourself (your multidimensional

identity) which will merge with your four body system and

build your light quotient, raising your overall vibration."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Eight

"If you are ever feeling any discomfort in meditation, always

immediately call in the MAP (Medical Assistance Program)

healing team. This is a group of ascended beings made up of Pan,

the overlighting deva of healing, the Great White Brotherhood

medical unit and your Soul and Monad. Just call them in

by name. They are especially trained to help with any medical

or energetic blockages. I personally call on them in every

meditation to help keep my physical body balanced while

I'm meditating. For a total understanding of the MAP team,

read the chapter about them in my second book, Soul Psychology."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone PhD

Ascension Technique Number Seven

"Call forth under the guidance of your Monad, the anchoring

and activation of your twenty two chakras. Your chakras will

actually descend into the body like bodies of light. They will

remain in your four body system for a period of time and then

leave. The consistent invocation of your higher chakras to descend

will, over time, build up your spiritual battery. It will increase

the wattage of the spiritual light bulb that you are. It is

essential that you do this under the supervision of your Monad,

so as not to burn out your body. This is not something that should

be done all at once but slowly and gradually to prepare your

nervous system. Ask your Soul and Monad to supervise this

process and you have nothing to worry about. I would recommend

using the ascension meditation treatment in the back of this book

for a period of time. Put it on an audio tape that you

record yourself. Over time you will integrate the first sixteen

chakras. Then you can begin calling forth the fifth

dimensional chakras sixteen through twenty-two."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone Phd

Ascension Technique Number Six

"Call to Isis, Osiris, Serapis Bey and Thoth for the Ark of the

covenant to be used in the acceleration of your path of

ascension during your meditations. The Ark of the covenant

was used by the great Ptahs and egyptian masters of the past

in their initiations and ascension work. You will experience

a marked increase in the power of your meditations upon

calling for it."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone Phd

Ascension Technique Number Five

"When meditating from now on, make a request for your

eleven other soul extensions to join you in your Ascension

work. Don't order them, but rather give them an invitation

to attend and ask your Monad and maybe Vywamus for help

in gathering them. In later meditations you may also want to

invite all other one hundred forty four of your soul extensions.

By doing this, you are doing your ascension work for twelve of you

instead of just one of you. Remember it is your whole soul group that

is actually ascending through just one soul extension. I cannot

recommend this ascension technique highly enough."

From "The Complete Ascension Manual"

by Joshua David Stone Phd

Ascension Technique Number four

"Call forth to your Monad and to the Masters for the

construction of your personal Merkabah, if you don't have one

already. Ask in meditation that your Merkabah be spun to

raise your vibration to the fifth dimensional Ascended Master

Frequency. Use your Merkabah anytime you want to do soul

traveling in meditation or at night when you sleep. The

spinning of the Merkabah is part of the process of learning

to dematerialize and rematerialize."

by Joshua David Stone Phd

Ascension Technique Number Two

"Call to the Mahatma to integrate all three hundred

fifty two levels of the Mahatma into your being during

every meditation. Also ask to receive the light information

of all three hundred fifty two levels of the Mahatma.

It will come through in what would look like light packets

if you looked at it clairvoyantly. Ask to receive the light

information packets from the 5th, 6th and 7th dimensions

of reality. This is actual spiritual information that will

be programmed into your computer banks and that you

will eventually use in your future mission. It also helps

to build your light quotient. You can also request to be

A cosmic walk in for the Mahatma on Earth. In doing this

you are requesting to be subtly overshadowed by the

Mahatma to help heal the separation between your

personality, Monad and Soul, and also between you and

the presence of God."

Ascension Technique number one

"Ask in meditation or at night when you sleep to be taken

to the ascension seats in the ascension chambers. It is one of the

best ways to build the light quotient and raise your vibration. You

can feel the light and energy being very gently pulsed into your body

as you sit in meditation. I would also recommend calling

upon archangel Metatron for help in building your light

quotient. He is the creator of all outer light in the universe

and seems to have special ability in this area."

I bow to my fearful self.

I bow to my unworthy self.

I thank you for your courage to feel your pain.

I thank you for the courage to move

through the darkness into the light.

I thank you for trusting me and the God within.

I Love you and I need you to walk with me into the light.

I cannot go forward without you.

We are ONE now and forever.

Aum

I bow to my divine essence.

I thank you for your endless love and patience with me.

I am devoted to you my beloved God.

I'm devoted to bringing you forth

through my human form.

I give you my life.

I am yours now and forever.

And so it is.

2011-06-27T16:13:00.000-07:00

"A Buddhist practitioner is seen as a soldier in spiritual

combat who is fighting ignorance, anger, attachment,

pride, ego, negative emotions, negative thoughts, fear

and jealousy. Enemies are not outside but within,

As soon as afflictive or negative, emotions or qualities

arise, the Tibetan Buddhist is guided to shift his or her

attention and cultivate the opposite quality, using

the rational mind."

Joshua David Stone

"Suffering and afflictive emotions are caused by lack of

control over the mind and by the actions that stem

from this lack of discipline."

Joshua David Stone

"There are ten negative actions that all Buddhists are

guided to renounce:

Killing,

Stealing,

Sexual misconduct,

Lying,

Divisive speech,

Harsh words,

Senseless gossip,

Covetousness,

Harmful intent, and

The holding of perverted views."

"To be a good Buddhist you must practice altruism,

compassion, honesty, kindness and selflessness,

and you must hold a deep and abiding concern for the

welfare of others. These are developed through

good brain and a good heart."

"There is no reaching the self.

If the self were to be reached,

it would mean that the self is not here and now

but is yet to be obtained.

What is got afresh will also be lost.

So it will be impermanent.

What is not permanent is not worth striving for.

So I say the self is not reached.

You are the self.

You are already that."

Ramana Maharshi

Mandala 1153 by Melody Cummons

2011-06-21T21:39:00.001-07:00

"The fact is, you are ignorant of your blissful state.

Ignorance supervenes and draws a veil over the

pure self, which is bliss. Attempts are directed

only to remove this veil of ignorance, which is

merely wrong knowledge.

The wrong knowledge is the false identification

of the self with the body, mind, etc.

This false identification must go, and then the

self alone remains.

Therefore, realization is for everyone;

realization makes no differences between

aspirants. This very doubt whether you can realize

and the notion "I have not realized"

are themselves the obstacles.

Be free from these obstacles also."

"There is nothing to do to achieve God, for you already

are God. That is how God created you. It is your true

identity. It always has been and always will be.

Your lesson is to own this fact, see it in others and

material world is real or you see beyond appearances

to the eternal self living in all things."

2011-05-29T15:22:00.000-07:00

Earlier in the spring,

I was out walking by the bay

It was a gray day.

The water always seems to mirror the sky.

It doesn't seem to have much color in and of itself.

It reflects the light

and the light gives it life and dimension

movement and dance.

Life.

Everywhere in life you look, you can find relationship.

Everything touches or interacts with everything else

in some way or another.

Everything we see is a reflection of light on our cornea

and sent into a magic imaging machine that we call a

brain. and that simple relationship

moves us

inspires us

touches our beingness.

Everything we smell passes into our body

and into our lungs,

filling the spaces on each side of our heart.

The very air that we breathe moves

into our lungs and becomes part of the river systems

of our blood and veins.

And the ways we touch and receive the world

around us with our hands is endless.

Most of the time we are not even fully aware

of how we are connected to everything

even just on the physical level.

So imagine how deeply and symbiotically

we are all connected to each other,

through our spirits and hearts.

Imagine that last breath you breathed was

possibly exhaled from a rainforest half way around

the world.

Just for you.

Just to touch you.

Just to support you

and the life that you are.

Om Shanti

Mandala 1139 by Melody Cummons

2011-05-20T09:28:00.000-07:00

Today is my birthday and I'm officially a half century old.

It makes me think about rebirth. Life is full of events and

experiences that can cause a rebirth. When something

new is born within me, it is often accompanied by a

passing away of something that no longer works for me in

my new expanded awareness or state of being.

In order for Love and Expansion and inner Peace to

be awakened within, I need to accept, love, forgive

and release aspects of myself that no longer nurture

or are in alignment with the new energy and consciousness.

Sometimes that can be a little scary.

I have to let go of everything I think I know and

simultaneously free fall into the unknown.

It is only natural that the ego put up a fight.

That's what the ego is designed for.

That's how I know when I'm getting close

to something extrordinary...

Fight or flight, Fear, Resistance.

Oh Baby, we are getting close now.

Coming up fast right to the heart of everything.

Time to let go. Time to trust.

Time to spread the wings and fly.

All those mental constructs are like a hollodeck.

I make up all the stories and none of them are real.

The only true thing is Love and Peace and

Freedom and Now.

EXPAND, AWAKEN!

Go Baby Go!

Mandala 1100 by Melody Cummons

"I will mourn the loss of thousands of precious

lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one,

not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate

multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a

night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot

drive out darkness; only light can do that.

Hate cannot drive out hate,

only love can do that."

Jessica Dovey /Martin Luther King Jr

at the vast compass of the ocean,

and they pass themselves by without wondering."

What you believe with your mind

WILL be manifested in physical reality.

Such is the great power that you are.

Your thoughts and feelings, your

intentions and beliefs are simply the

magical incantations of the

amazing and powerful being that you are.

You can manifest anything.

Use your power wisely.

Love lives through you.

Let the world see.

Love.

We are all part of the Universe.

All of us are that transformative power.

Sahasrara

The Crown Chakra

Welcome to the seventh Chakra, The Crown Chakra,

also called the thousand petaled lotus,

is located at the top of the head.

This is the connection point where the soul enters

and inhabits the physical body. Most humans walk

through life with their souls only connected to them in

the head area. But the more we practice meditation

and the consciousness of oneness, then our souls

come more fully into the physical body.

Physical embodiment of spirit and our own

unique being is what awakening and

ascension is.

Ajna

The Third Eye

The Third Eye is located in the center of the brow

area above the bridge of the nose.

It is associated with our psychic vision and intuition.

On a lesser level, it is associated with Mind.

When we associate ourselves with the higher aspect

of Ajna, then we rise above the limitations of the

mind.

Vishuddha

The Throat Chakra

Welcome to the fifth chakra,

The Throat chakra, found in the throat area.

The throat chakra is very connected to the heart chakra

and is an area of the energy of expression. This chakra

is like a bridge that from the heart, takes us from the

first three chakras, which connect us to the physical world

and bring us through to the higher chakras which

connect us to more spiritual realms.

A bridge between the physical and spiritual realms

where all aspects of our being can meet in

oneness.

Anahata

The Heart Chakra

Welcome to the fourth chakra.

The Heart Chakra, located at the center of the body

connects us to universal, unconditional love,

compassion and devotion.

This chakra has always been my favorite and

my Aura is mostly radiating green.

This is the place where I can connect to

the oneness of all that is...

in the stillness of the heart.

This is the portal of transformation.

Manipura

The Solar Plexus Chakra

Welcome to the third Chakra.

Located just below the Navel at the solar plexus,

it is like our own private inner central sun and it draws

prana from the great central sun at the center of our

universe. Manipura is like a subtle energy nerve hub

that brings in energy to support the nervous

system of the physical body.

Svadisthana

The Sacral Chakra

Welcome to the second Chakra,

The place from which our creativity and

sexual and feeling energies emerge.

A place of great expression, and

union with divine consciousness.

Muladhara

The Root chakra

Welcome to the first Chakra,

located at the base of the spine, it is our foundation

and our connection to the Earth, grounding us

here in physical reality.

It is the root of the tree of life in the physical body

as well as the place from which kundalini energy

rises, energizing and awakening the other

energy centers of the body.
