Cosmic Rose, by Roxanne Baldwin
I Believe
I believe that every single one of us is connected to everyone else. The actions of one reflect on all.
I believe that every single one of us is connected to the universe and that the universe is connected to every single one of us.
I believe that we all know that we are connected to the universe, but we describe it using different words, like God, Goddess, Holy, Divine etc.
I believe, that because we are connected to everything that it follows that the intelligence that we claim for ourselves is part of the intelligence that is everywhere.
and that the intelligence that is measured by IQ is ego based, not the universal intelligence which is a knowing that is rooted so deeply inside of every living and once living thing.
I believe that when we make a sacred contract, that there is a part of that knowing that will remind us that we have made that contract, if we have a lapse of mindfulness and help us fulfil that contract.
On a more local basis (Planet Earth) I believe that every single one of us has the ability to find another's thoughts. So if we have made a promise of energy to someone, that the person who is receiving and the sender connect.
In short we are at one with everything and everything is at one with us or to paraphrase an old
Diana Ross song. "You are everything and everything is you".
Like I say this is what I believe. I don't know that it is true.
Namaste

A Simple tale of wisdom
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway, it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbours to come over and help him. They each grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement, he quieted down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer looked down the well, and was astonished at what he saw. As every shovel of dirt hit his back, the donkey would shake it off and take a step up.
As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed, as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and trotted off.
The Moral: Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up.
Each of our troubles is a stepping stone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up!
Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.
O.K., that's enough of the bullsh*t. The donkey later came back, caught the farmer out in the field and kicked the sh*t out of him. Then he went over to each of his neighbours farms and kicked the sh*t out of them too for helping.
The REAL Moral: When you try to cover your ass, it ALWAYS comes back to get you.

A Taoist went up to a New York City Hot dog Vendor and said
"Make me one with everything"
He gave the vendor $10 and stood there eating his Hot Dog whilst waiting for his change
The Taoist eventually said to the vendor
"What about my change?"
To which the vendor replied
"Change must come from within"

Triangulation Meditation
This one is very good for preparing yourself for energy work. It clears out your central column, allowing you to handle more energy .
It starts with the Soul mantra. Which is a lovely way of connecting with your I Am energy.
I do however leave the I am the monad part of it out.
Please follow the link to get to the meditation The Triangulation Meditation
Whilst there, look at the spiritual whirlwind meditation as well. This is very often done after the triangulation one.

This is an adaptation of a meditation that I heard on a Ram Dass tape many years ago, mixed with another one that I heard around the same time.
Imagine a tiny being sitting on a leaf in the middle of a lake. This is at your heart centre.
The tiny being grows until it fills your body
Then grows and fills the room
Then the country
Then the whole of the Earth
Then out to the moon (Stay at each place for a bit, eventually you will be able to get out there a bit faster, but at first take your time)
Then the solar system. Keeping the earth in your belly.
Then our galaxy
Then the whole universe
In the distance you see a light, a brilliant white light, As you get closer, it gets larger.
You reach the light, you are now right back to source, where we all began, and where the energy started.
Replenishing yourself with the energy that is there Stay there, but also be here at the same time. you are multi dimensional, you are everywhere you are everything.
Keep connected with the Earth in your belly.
When you are ready to go thank the energy and slowly come back into our universe
Then our galaxy
Then our solar system
Then to the moon
Look at the Earth in you belly
Send love
Healing
Energy
Compassion.
Now come back to the earth
To your country
To the room
To your body
Let the little figure shrink back down till he/she is at you heart centre sitting on a leaf in the middle of a lake
Thank them for taking you on the journey. Thank yourself for taking yourself on the journey.
Yes the little figure on a leaf in the middle of the lake is you
Namaste

The Microcosmic orbit
This is a meditation that I learnt in Tai Chi. It entails moving your own Chi (Personal energy) around a circuit in your body
Please follow the link Microcosmic Orbit
The upper body portion of this is a great way to calm yourself, should you get upset or angry.

The Green Tara Mantra
Om Tare Tutare Ture Soha
If you type Green Tara into Google you will find some really nice pictures of this Buddhist deity
Chanting the mantra for around 20 minutes at a time really helps focus and calm your mind (well it does mine anyway)

Healing Meditations/Techniques
These are a little bit of self help, or something for you to speak (in the case of the meditations) whilst helping some one else
This first one came from a book I read many years back. There is a name for this technique, but I can not remember what it is.
This is a method for ridding yourself of minor pain. If the pain is persistent you should of course seek medical help.
The first thing to do is to look into the pain.
Find where the pain is.
Ask what colour it is,
What shape it is,
What is the texture of it
In your mind, fill the shape out with clear clean water (Or white light if you visualise that better)
When it is full, wash it out. Send the water/light to the universe to be cleaned.
Repeat the washing process.
After a few washes, look at the pain again, has it changed colour, shape ,texture.
Repeat the washing process.
Look at the colour, shape and texture again.
You are aiming for the colour to be bright and clean, not dirty or in anyway angry.
The shape may start sharp or twisted and the texture hard or spiky, but after the process has been done for a while these all change. The pain changes, becomes more bearable, unless it goes altogether, which is the aim.
