BENEDICTION

2017, BENEDICTION, INTENTION, WILL

SEPTEMBER 8, 2017

 A Benediction is voiced when one wants to ask for guidance, protection, or assistance. It is not a prayer, but more of a statement, something akin to the ceremonial customs of Earth clans worldwide.

“And let there be Light”

“May Wisdom feed our every thought”

“May our fears be smaller than our courage”

It is a “so mote it be” kind of ending for communication with Higher worlds. One is stating what one would like to occur, for the self and/or for the Greater Whole. It is quite like Intention spoken aloud.

Benediction need not be paired with ceremony. It need not be grand. “Let my sleep be peaceful,” is a rather simple Benediction. “Let my deepest fears be revealed to me,” is more complex, and thusly should only be spoken when one is ready to attend to its possible influences in the Life.

When you speak Benediction you are drawing a line in your consciousness. You are making a statement about what you’d like to see happen. Do not take this lightly; not even in jesting.

People jokingly say this or that, in the extreme, not really meaning their words. But we tell you that words are powerful: they are outreachings of your thoughts and intentions. They are Will made into Action.

Do not say: “And may that person die a horrible death,” or “May that country be wiped from the Earth.” You have no idea how your personal energy might be actualized. You have no idea if what you have said might come to pass, and if you will have been part of what helped it come to pass.

Use the power of Benediction purely. Use it to create growth, and peace, and understanding—both within your self and outside your self.

This morning, could there be a better Benediction that this: “May I know Wisdom today and the Peace and Compassion needed to make those Wisdoms reality.”

For Discussion:  Have you a catch-phrase you use that is belittling or hurtful to others--something you believe is said in jest--and therefore, should be accepted in good humor? Could you exchange hurtful phrases for uplifting ones? Name three phrases you could exchange or improve.

Words are Will made into Action. What words have you spoken this month that may have set themselves on a path that lives in opposition to your purpose?

What self-construction Benediction could you use now, today, that would uplift you in your life and create positive ripples for your community?

THANKING

2017, ABUNDANCE, RECOGNITION, THANKING

SEPTEMBER 7, 2017

The act of Thanking activates more abundance. You are saying to Great All: This is good; This is well-met; This is appreciated. It is accepting with Grace what arrives and pairing it with the action of acknowledgement.

Thanking Great All is the place to start when you are loading The Machine for success. It is a superior Rationale for feeding the Cognition.

Thanking is not merely humble gratitude. It is giving credit, expressing joy, and reflecting into your future that which you will build upon what has been delivered.

If you wake in a state of great energy and clarity, how will you use it? Thank the Great All for this gift, even if you believe your own actions led to this energy and clarity—because you know that 2 + 2 does not always equal 4. You do not reap from The Great Machine exactly what you expect when you input ingredients to turn Its wheels.

So, if you are on a good road and a good path, be well. If there are times when the good road makes for bad times, remain non-judgmental and continue upward. If there are times when the good road makes for good times, still remain non-judgmental and continue upward. But, in both instances, remember to give Thanks for those things which are working to your benefit.

Be Grateful. Be open to success. Be able and capable and tireless in your devotions to grow. Thanking is your bow to the Universe. It is the acknowledgement to Great All that you sense and admire Its presence in your Life.

Thanking the Universe today for whatever is in your Life, both benevolent and change-stimulating, attracts helpful energies. Thanking accelerates change. Thanking is inclusive. Thanking is a beautiful way to move forward.

For Discussion: Do you understand the concept of Thanking--giving credit where it is deserved--even when you "secretly" believe that good fate delivered was specifically due to your own work? Name three things that have been delivered unto you this week that you are Thankful for. Give credit, express your joy, and increase your understanding of the ask-and-you-shall-receive system at work in Great All.

What is it you need that you are holding at a distance? Is this needed thing being postponed or compromised because: you don't believe you deserve it? you believe that accepting it will change you in an unacceptable way? you believe that payment due for such a thing is more than you can currently bear?

If you have Thanked Great All for everything you perceive as helpful and positive, have you also taken the time to consider events, things, and people who have had a negative and unhelpful influence in your life? If you reconsider these negative, unhelpful things, might you find some grains of medicine and magic in them? Can you uncover the illusion under which so much lives? Can you see both the helpful and unhelpful things together, and with an unbiased and unconditional mind and heart, give Thanks for its synergy?

RATIONALE

2017, FACTORING, RATIONALE

SEPTEMBER 6, 2017

 

What set of principles and reasons do you apply to your outcomes? How many conclusions do you base in life theory, how many in social mythology, how many in personal belief, and how many in the Highest Rationale, the outcome-set that arrives as a labor that is working into your theorems the very Highest suppositions?

Your Rationale is not synonymous with rationalizing, or it shouldn’t be. Rationalizing is similar to making justifications for something that is undeserving. Rationale is the intelligent and intuitive principle-set you construct in order to move something forward, whether that be to take action, make clear, or leave behind.

Rationale is what the Cognition must be fed; it is the quality input. Rationale idealized, is non-biased, based on categorical Truth, and timely. You cannot apply the Rationale of one era or one culture to another; it does not translate.

So, if Rationale does not translate across social and historic boundaries, how may you weigh it for its merit? You must see it point-by-point. You must see it as an uninvolved outsider, with discernment rather than judgment.

To solve any condition, your Rationale, and therefore your Cognition, must rise above the condition. You must align with higher vibrations and greater Truth. You must draw upward the needs of the condition and meet those needs with relevant, higher sources for resolution.

Let us say you want to change the condition of your employment. First, you must focus on the self and not on the factors of the current employment. What have those factors in your present to do with something you wish to create for your future? What do the actions of others in your work environment, or the integrity of the business itself have to do with creating a higher future? To create that higher future, you must focus on higher principles.

What Rationale will you bring to this condition? What is it you desire for your future? Would you like your work to align more closely with your beliefs? Would you like to experience greater satisfaction in your work? Would you like to experience the camaraderie of higher-minded coworkers and clients? Yes? Then you must think Above the current state. Your Rationale must be constructed along the guidelines of the higher state.

If you want work that aligns more closely with your beliefs, your Rationale for attracting the work must include the tenets of your beliefs. If you want greater satisfaction in your work, your Rationale must be clear in what satisfaction is, for you, right now . . . and what you desire to grow towards in feeling that satisfaction in your future. Do you desire the company of higher-minded persons? Reflect the higher-mind state and Life will help you to find them.

Your Rationale must not waver from its guidelines and integrity, for what you give the Cognition becomes its food. The Cognition will digest the Rationale. If the Rationale is weak and misguided, self-defeating, and with low thresholds, your results will reflect it. Your Cognition will provide you with answers that are sub-par, and you may believe that its results are true, having come to conclusions by what you believe was an act of inputting facts.

Is it a fact that the world wants less for you? that life is hard “for your kind”? that you are too old or underequipped for what you idealize?

What if you chose to suspend your disbelief, right here, right now? What if you began to believe that the world wants the very best for you, that you can find ease, and that your current state is more than plenty to have these things and more? 

What if you construct your Rationale to reflect a person that is strong and whole and capable, who will be unimpeded by setbacks because they are perpetually aware of the help that is available to manifest what is needed and desired?

How does suspending your negative beliefs and embracing the proactive beliefs form more helpful Rationale, and how does that Rationale feed your Cognition in higher ways? And how does that nourished Cognition give you feedback to defeat what is small and broken? You will know only be trying.

Do not try tomorrow. Do not say that you will wait for a better day, or prepare for a longer time. Construct Rationale now that will best help you move forward with confidence, Rationale that will feed your Cognition in ways that help you to thrive. 

We are waiting.

For Discussion: After testing factors for truth, construct a Rationale with a 7-step forward plan that takes you from where you are -to- where you want to be. Where are you now -and- where do you want to be? Explain the steps of your plan.

Do you feel the world is most often supporting you or thwarting you? Do you feel current negative impacts on your life were earned by past negative behaviors? How do you believe the system of "reward-and-punishment" works (if you believe there is such a system) ?

Is your Cognition currently nourished by a strong and healthy Rationale? If not, how will you make it so? How can you turn around your future life, purpose, and satisfaction by planning seven steps ahead using these principles?

COGNITION

2017, BELIEF, COGNITION

SEPTEMBER 5, 2017

What is in a thought? All of your experiences, beliefs, expectations, assumptions, wishes, and comparative studies brought together form thoughts, and above that operates Cognition. Cognition is the condition of being able to study something and make connections, and that involves your consciousness, your unconsciousness, and we hope, your superconsciousness.

Cognition is not without flaw; it is the elixir of everything that you bring to thinking and problem solving. To have arrived at a conclusion does not make the conclusion solid nor the journey impeccable. It is merely the place at which you have stopped, having stopped thinking, believing that your thinking is done.

How then may you trust your Cognition? How many things are you thinking right now? How are you thinking about them; what beliefs, assumptions, and experiences have you already applied to this cocktail of thoughts?

Cognition is more than a recreation for the mind, and for the ever-busy brain who must be kept busy at every moment. It is a culmination of rational ideas colored by imagination. It is the civilized tempered by the feral.

Cognition will tell you that the screeking floor board is merely heat and cold, but quickly seduced by other filtrates, it will amend itself to say that someone or something is causing the noise, sneaking up on you with ill intent. It might then return to its first idea, but thereafter waver in its conclusions.

So, how do we apply our Cognition in terms that we can trust? How do we make an ally of Cognition and keep it safe from unsavory seductions? We must apply filters. We must use our highest mind. We must focus on clarity when the murky comfort, or comfortable discomfort, is infringing in our territories.

Who are you, really? What are you made to do? Why are you? These thoughts require the highest, clearest mind. The difference between low answers and high are the difference between a well drawn map and being lost.

Cognition bends to its input, as a computer performs to its software. If we want quality output, we must input quality factors. We must inspect our thoughts for falsehood, mythology, fears, and other manipulations. Would you say that eggs are born of a carton because you have never met a chicken?

Being open to what you do not know is more important than what you believe you know. Select an object in your current view. Name three things you believe you know about that object. Now, believe you know nothing about the object, and look for three things that you did not know. What are they? Do they surprise you?

See how your world expands when you let in what is not known. Cognition is fired by its factors. Remember that any conclusion is an opinion, even in Science where reproducible outcomes may change due to shifts in application and environment. Your world is constantly evolving, as are you.

To evolve on the highest path, you must use your Cognition as a tool. By feeding your thought processes the highest raw forms, and being open to the unknown, your Cognition processes will rise to serve you. You are not your thoughts, but you are intrinsic with them.

Let your thoughts be guided by the highest forms and processes. Let your Cognition be consistent with Truth. And let your self be guided wisely, growing what is known, and ever open to what is not.

For Discussion: Let us discuss one point: who are you? Is this the same as asking WHAT are you? Can you apply Cognition to these reflections?

How much of your process is influenced by your personal beliefs? How many of your personal beliefs are barely more than repetition, learned input supplied to you by your family and community?

Now, ask your self again: Who are you? When you have decided this, ask the more important question: Who do you want to be?

THE MANATUA

2017, AWARENESS, DEJA VU, MEMORY

SEPTEMBER 4, 2017

The Samoan language uses the word Manatua to indicate the act of remembering, memories, or the remembered. We would like to use Manatua this morning to indicate what is inside you that can be remembered: the Manatua that dwells in you; the memories that dwell in you. We do not speak of your mortal memories, but your eternal ones.

You have experienced déjà vu, that feeling that you have been someplace before, said something before, done something before, or met someone before—even though your mind is simultaneously telling you that is untrue. Is your mind lying or tricking you for its own ends? For that matter, if the experience can be explained by déjà vu, the fruition of something that you unconsciously knew would come to pass, what function could it serve?

Notice how your attention goes to point when you are experiencing a déjà vu. You are studying the experience from all angles. You are wondering why it is so familiar. You are intuitively working to extract its message. Why do I feel this way? What am I supposed to experience right now? What should I take away?

Remember right now experiences you have had where one of your senses has triggered a powerful memory, not a déjà vu, by linking your present with a different place in time and a difference place in space. Usually, you will have the opportunity to manage the present conditions differently than the previous ones—higher minded and with more maturity: “I was frightened by this when last I encountered a situation similar, but now I know how to effectively navigate these conditions . . .”

Now, think of the deeper Manatua, or a déjà vu: “I have done exactly this before. I know this, therefore I am in control. I give thanks to have had warning for this. I now know that I am in the right place doing the right thing.”

Can you then apply these same principles to what is inside you, remembered and waiting to be rediscovered? Yes. There are worlds of wisdom in you. There are endless connections. You are never without resources. You are never without help. You are never without Love.

We will call the body of the Manatua your archive—because it is its own animal. It exists alongside you, entailed to you, and intrinsic with you. Your Manatua is your second skin.

Explore the Manatua. It is also the Gatekeeper to greater archives, the Hall of Concordance, and the Great Manatua of Great All. Do you want to know more, feel more, do more? You may.

By opening the spine of your own Manatua, you access its storehouse. Because it is built on your template, you will perfectly understand its contents. It will be delivered perfectly unto you. You need go no further. With the Great Manatua as your guide, all things will open.

For Discussion: Have you accessed your own Manatua? Can you discern the difference in quality and reliability as provided by your mortal memory compared to your Manatua? Which of your human memory files do you return to most often? Why? In returning to these memories, are you attempting to live in the past, change the past, or merely touch-stone with the past?

How do you human memories weaken you? How do they give you strength? Have you had the experience of changing a memory when your Manatua shows you that it is false? How did that make you feel? How did that improve your life? How did it shift other memories? Did you feel more compelled to visit other memories and mark them against the Manatua for accuracy?

How might your Manatua serve you from this time forward?

REVERBERATION

2017, ECHO, MIRRORS, REVERBERATION

SEPTEMBER 3, 2017

Your every feeling, thought and action creates a Reverberation, a sonic signal that is strong at its source and shudders or repeats as it moves away—either in loops, spirals, or waves. This is why we feel repelled by some and attracted to others. This is how you can feel a shudder in your spine as revulsion . . . or as a wave of pleasure. You are reacting to the Reverberation of what has been released.

People do this naturally, in both receiving a Reverberation, and in making them. Other entities do this as well: singing stones, babbling brooks, whispering trees . . . creaking houses. Everything in existence stores its intentions and memories in its vibratory pattern, and each pattern is as unique as a fingerprint.

Imagine how a singer trains, watching in a mirror as they are using their bodies to form sound, listening closely, paying attention to the Reverb or life of the note. Masterful singers want to find the right notes and deliver them in the right way to create the right effect.

Imagine you are seated directly across from a person, and each has the intention of experiencing each other wordlessly. You will perceive much through facial expression and body language, but what if you were blindfolded? Would you perceive less, or more?

How basic do you believe the vibration of an entity to be? With deep listening and deep sensing, you will surprise yourself by how much the measure of a person, place, or thing you can perceive. Try this in a group and our words will prove themselves.

Your Reverberation, the affect of your Vibration upon the immediate environment, is part of a core signature that you share with your world. And the larger the thought, feeling, or action, the larger its area of influence.

You do not affect your world by existing alone, although you do affect your world by merely existing. All aspects of you and your processes affect your world. The bigger the process, the bigger the effect.

Consider who you are, vibrationally, in your world. How do your Reverberations affect other persons, places, and things? How might you create Reverberations that help to lift the conditions of your world?

This morning, study yourself. Attempt to see, feel, and sense your personal vibrations and Reverberations and assess them. The more Love you give to the world, the more Love comes seeking.

For Discussion: Attempt to consider these thoughts from a state of neutral vibration. While not entirely possible to remove your self from all vibrations, removing your self from strong influences that create either negative or positive waves will help you to better divine what you are seeking to experience.

If you were a song, what song would you be? How does that song make other people feel? How does that song affect the vibration of the room? How large is this effect? Do you affect a room, a whole house, a whole community? Is this a positive or a negative thing? What are the hidden lyrics in your song--what is its overall message?

Are you glad to be represented by this song? If not, what song would you prefer to mimic? How do you believe that your life, and your ability to affect life, creates action in the world? Describe that action.

THE COST OF THINGS

2017, COST, EXCHANGE, SACRIFICE

SEPTEMBER 2, 2017

Because voids may not exist in the living, when one thing is removed, another must move to take its place. This is the law that creates continuity, adherence, and cohesion. Therefore, as you attract a new idea, energy, purpose, or quality, something of equal weight and space must be surrendered.

Most persons find this very difficult. A new idea presents itself: the person seeks to embrace it, and yet, the old, comfortable, and familiar ideas have great weight and are sometimes quite entrenched. Most will believe that these things can co-exist.

Two idea sets can overlap, allowing one to transition inward while the other transfers away. This is a normal function and less jolting . . . but one cannot fully embrace Truth, or the new idea, and continue to live by the paradigm of Falsehood, or the old idea. There is no room. It’s like trying to use the gas and brake pedal simultaneously on your car.

So, first of all the Cost of Things is Exchange. One must Exchange old things for new things. Can one become mighty, holding more, knowing more, wielding more? Yes . . . but how does it serve to hold onto outdated and disproved ideas?

When you embrace what is new, you may bemoan what is lost. Why? Is being smaller more comfortable? Is having less responsibility more comfortable? Is knowing less Truth more comfortable? What do you want in this Life? Be of single Intention.

Direct your Conclaves. 

Realize that good housekeeping involves throwing out the trash. When you are growing, The Cost of Things is never so dear as remaining stagnant, asleep, or only half-alive.
