Dreams of Humpback Whales, Sumatran Rhinos, Purring Felines and Heart Health

Last night I had a dream about my heart QRS wave.  In the dream my R portion was expanded and that caused me to have a sense of fear. Then I found myself watching a humpback whale with many other onlookers and as the whale felt threatened it went mistakenly into a captivity tank.  At this point in the dream I was awakened by our cat Vermillion "Millie" as she settled herself upon my chest with her soothing, hypnotic purring.

Analyzing the dream I wondered why the R section of the QRS wave in the dream stood out to me. In the dream I saw the letter R written in a stretched out longhand and I was astonished when I determined that it was the first initial of an elderly loved one whose abundant health has recently declined.  We had just seen each other yesterday and I experienced that my loved one was in a state of fragile health.  I phoned last evening to follow up. I use humpback whale song and sounds of the ocean in my Yoga classes to instill a peaceful vibration and I have always felt that whales and dolphins are amazing sea mammals whose intelligence and significance is far greater than we can truly appreciate. This human being that I am concerned about is a fiercely independent loner, magical and mysterious and would not like to be in captivity like the whale in my dream. It was an observing crowd projecting fear that caused the whale to panic and wind up in captivity. I was a witness as well.

Additionally, yesterday was exactly one week since I had released a feral young cat from its winter captivity in our basement. To the relief of my family members this tiny black feline showed up in our yard yesterday and we were able to feed it. This kitten on the brink of adulthood would not like to be a house pet as much as I tried to convince it otherwise.  It was fiercely independent and after months of attempted contact she showed her displeasure of being confined by not using the litter box and having to have wee wee pads covering the whole floor. The room began to take on a most unpleasant odor and I looked forward to spring and room recovery. I never heard this cat purr, not even once although I tried singing and playing my harp for it.  She could not overcome forced captivity.  It was my fear that this kitten would not survive the bitter winter that we were expecting that caused it to suffer indoors hiding in dark crevices.

Synchronistically this morning I was writing about the animal, bird and whale song sounds I use when teaching yoga and I came upon an article on a site called EarthCode by an inspiring writer named Paula Peterson.  She writes that she created a website as a forum of illumination for the seeker in all of us and as a way of reaching out to those around the world who sense that a major shift in human consciousness is on the rise.

The article is about the sounds of animals and is based on an interview with Elizabeth Von Muggethaler  a research scientist and bio-acoustic specialist who is president of Fauna Communication Research institute, where the sounds of animals are being researched. Sounds of animals can relax, uplift and even heal humans and the environment and this research pioneer is setting about to prove how very valuable these beings are to all of us.
A cat's purr and the Sumatran Rhino "whale song" exhibit healing and meditative qualities that may induce by frequency other sounds that we can not hear but that may affect our senses and rhythms with their infra-sounds.  These are sounds that we feel but never hear. The range of human hearing is technically, between 20 and 20,000 hertz. Infrasound is below 20 hertz. As humans age the hearing capacity decreases.

The humpback whale song is known to stimulate deep healing responses and apparently the Sumatran rhinoceros has a similar sound frequency signature. They are furry with tufts on their ears and about four feet tall and they sing like whales. Its easy to see why an animal lover and nature appreciator would love them.  Their song has a hypnotically peaceful quality. Elizabeth thinks that it seems as if they are meditating and producing a special state of brain wave frequency that connects to the other creatures, the forest and earth.  This is such a joy to hear.  As I connect to this I feel as if my heart is purring.  Nature is so amazing. I thank God for this connection.

And there's more.  Ancestral song is a term coined to describe the basic song that mammals have dependent upon their species. I have found myself trying to communicate with animals by mimicking their sounds and it is fascinating to watch their response.  I have found that I can walk by a goose without it hissing if I just warn it gently with a soft honking sound.  If I mimic a cat they stop and turn around and some will even come over and rub themselves on my leg, birds call back, deers turn and gaze at me when I make a soft bleating like a kid goat which is a very similar sound to a fawn. Body language can be imitated too. When I blink lovingly at a cat they almost always respond by blinking slowly back.  Dogs simply respond to even a glance or any call.  Thats why they are labeled mans best friend.

Animals all have a job to do and they do it very well. Sadly some animals become extinct and  the Sumatran rhinoceros are critically endangered as there are only 200 to 300 left in the world.
The Sumatran rhino is the oldest living species of rhino, and is a descendant of the wooly rhinoceros. They are the smallest living rhino in the world. These amazing rhinos have reddish hair and are fiercely independent and only come together to breed.  They do not respond well to captivity and they will not breed when confined.  It is thought that they have remained unchanged for the last 2 million years. Their unique song may very well be an important sound that is used in ways beyond our perception as all animals make their own frequencies like no other can.

So sing your song, Om your Oms, and appreciate the animals, they may be trying to communicate with you in your life or in your dreams. Respect the animals and  they will cherish and honor you.

Om Shanthi!

A Highly Rare Triad of Celestial Events Welcomes Spring to The Northern Hemisphere On The Vernal Equinox

"To thine own self be true", is a quote from Hamlet that I like to use in a new age way to mean find my truth, speak my truth; be my truth. It is time to step into my own mystic shoes and own my nature.  I am a mystic and as such speak from a place of inner knowing that is right for me.

I was indoctrinated into the energy healing arena in a deeply profound, mystical way. Awestruck at first, I marveled at the insights that I saw and heard that came from the angelic realm or what one might call the hidden dimensions.

As a confirmed Catholic who graduated from a parochial academy, it was important to me to  be grounded in my faith and to maintain the appropriate protocol in regard to the healing arts that I practiced.  I had become a licensed massage therapist after a disillusioning career in retail management for high end retailers. I had worked on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan for Saks Fifth Avenue, Chanel and Fendi before finding myself running a retail establishment in Miami Florida for Cora-Revillon, a multi- international firm based in Paris.  Oh yes, I had lots of fun and at the time enjoyed dressing for the parts I played.  I enjoyed a nice salary and a commission override with enticing sales trips.

It satisfied a yearning for glamour that I had within me and once it was satisfied and the field began to change due to the tremendous impact computers had on productivity, my job became more about numbers and beating the past figures than about satisfying customer relationships. After I mastered my position and proved it to myself by beating the previous managers numbers threefold and winning the national sales trips, it became tedious. It was then that the idea I had always had about becoming involved in the healing arts flourished and came to fruition as I completed my studies and earned a diploma and a license as a practicing nationally certified massage therapist. I had also intended to go on and get certified as a nutritionist and a chiropractor and I took part in several educational week-end seminars and visited Life Chiropractic College in Atlanta, Georgia.

However my career in retail ensued and while the company I worked for lost their lease at a major account they offered me a position at a different account and I relocated to Palm Beach Gardens, Fl. Simultaneously, I practiced part time as a new therapist and found there was so much one could study and studying the human body's response to healing modalities was so very exciting.  I became what is known as a course junkie.  I took up reflexology, neuro-muscular therapy,  cranio-sacral therapy, acupressure and then went on to master Reiki.  There were so many workshops and I thrived on knowledge and excelled in anatomy.

When the time came to make a big change and move back to North Eastern New Jersey, I had recently completed a study in the energetic work of cranio-sacral therapy.  This had reopened my intuition in a large way and I connected more energetically with my clients. In other words I became aware of clairvoyance and clairaudience, clairsentience and clairalience and claircognizance. Clair is a word of French Origin and that when used as an adjective clair means clear. It also means light when used as a noun as in "clair de lune" which is the french word for moonlight.

I was having experiences in each of the above areas on a regular basis such as touching letters that had come in the mail and knowing their contents.  It unfolded very naturally and my husband has witnessed this phenomenon as I connected to the mail of a personal nature on occasion.

At other times I would simply know something about a client, nothing ashamedly bad but something endearing. There were times during prayer or meditation that I shifted consciousness and witnessed another dimension overlaid over this one or a deceased avatar who bore a gift of golden light.  But mostly I had waking visions and sleeping dreams of the future and the dreams were significant such as a family funeral or illness or even where I would live and whom I would live with.  These dreams started when I was twelve.  I was afraid to tell my elders about this because I didn't know how they would respond.  What if they thought I was schizophrenic, my worst living nightmare would come true. But now as an adult who was about to study Reiki, I questioned the appropriateness of a Catholic young lady delving into the spiritual arts.  It seemed right and I trusted the insights I received were based in the truth of God so I had no fear. But I thought it prudent to go on a solitary retreat for a three day week-end of fasting and praying the Rosary to St. Mary. That gave me the confidence I needed to proceed. I was given the confirmation I sought.

Yet still I stayed mostly quiet about my experiences in the clairvoyant arena. Most of my siblings poked fun at it or outright told me it was unwanted or diabolical. I had simply wanted to share the loveliness of my experiences and the awe I encountered when my energy was cleared by a sacred geometrical figure that spun out of my escalated heart chakra and especially finding out months later that the symbol was an ancient Tibetan healing symbol noted in a book I had purchased. These were just some of the spontaneous phenomenon that stirred what I called a quickening, an escalation in the speed of the vortex of my chakras that enabled a heightened sense of energy awareness.  It was a natural high and I was able to see sacred geometric shapes working on my energy field and I knew I was being quickened. There were times I would see hieroglyphic symbols fleeing by and eyes and faces as if I was watching a television show on fast forward. This process took place over a period of several months and I simply knew it was a quickening. I stopped feeling awestruck and it didn't matter to me whether I shared this with my siblings and friends. As time went on some of my siblings became more open to Reiki and Yoga due to Yoga's rising popularity in mainstream media and local gymns. I felt so honored to share this with them and even to be called to offer a healing session.

Soon after moving back to Bergen county, I felt I needed a peaceful resource and I changed my private yoga practice into one at a wonderful satellite of a large ashram. The group experience heightened my practice and I met wonderful authentic Yogi's who inspired me to become a teacher.    I am deeply grateful to all of them.

This is the background from which springs my thoughts about our rapidly changing world and the celestial energy being poured out upon our earth at present. Right now as I write, I watch the last snow of the Winter turn into the first snow of the Spring.  It is 6:45 PM and the vernal equinox has just taken place.  Aequus is the Latin word for equal and nox means night.  Only twice a year does the planet experience equal day and equal night. The earth is neither tilted towards the sun or away from the sun on this day and the equator is directly beneath the sun at 12:00 noon.  There is no other planet in our solar system that experiences this.

Today's amazing complete solar eclipse that took place during this morning's rush hour in Norway was extraordinary as acclaimed by the very fortunate few who were able to view it from their far northern perches.  It was reported to be the most beautiful solar eclipse ever witnessed. During a complete solar eclipse the moon is seen to completely replace the sun and the wondrous coronal effect around the moon is called a diamond ring and during this particular one the sun's red chromosphere formed a ruby red ring around the moon shortly after the viewing of the diamond ring. It was spectacular! Plunged into darkness were the Faroe Islands halfway between Scotland and Iceland and this startling event has been captured and the footage can be viewed on line. Northern Norway had an excellent view and I have viewed the footage from both. An aerial view was also caught and a deep shadow formed first on the North Atlantic Ocean and swept up into the Arctic and
the North Pole.

Particularly fascinating to note is that the moon and the sun appear to be the same size during a complete eclipse and astronomers have puzzled over the odds of this leaving us to wonder about this coincidence.  The suns diameter is about 400 times greater than the moon but the sun is also 400 times farther away.

Because of my background and experience I can attest that we can attune ourselves into the orchestrations of the celestial heavens and Earth. It is an excellent time for prayer and meditation to raise our vibratory rate of consciousness and our Divine inner vision. Inside our brain the sacredly  encoded pineal gland is ensconced in water and it reacts to a rise in vibration, magnetic poles and acts like a stargate of electrical activity that responds to the responsive multiverse that surrounds us with light and electrical activity.

Today is a very special rare day in our planets history because three heavenly events are taking place. A highly rare triad of celestial events, a super moon and a complete solar eclipse welcomes the vernal equinox that heralds Spring to the northern hemisphere. Some groups are attaching fear based thoughts to this triune event in conjunction with the years four blood moons and point to biblical prophesies regarding the sun turned to darkness and the moon turned to blood.

(I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood.” Revelation 6:12)

A complete solar eclipse, the vernal equinox and a super new moon all take place today. Additionally, today March 20, 2015 happens to be the first day of the Jewish calendar year and our next full moon in two weeks will be the third blood moon in a series of four blood moons that just so  happen to correlate with a high Jewish holy day.

In fact this event of four blood moons is so rare it has been given a special name: a tetrad.  Our next full moon will take place with a full moon lunar eclipse which we refer to as a red moon or a blood moon.  Lunar eclipses happen when the sun, moon and earth are aligned in such a way that the Earth's shadow covers the moon from the sun and because the Earth momentarily blocks the suns light to the moon.  A super moon occurs because of the closer proximity of the moon to the earth that takes place in its elliptical orbit at that time. During a blood moon the sun shines into the Earth's atmosphere which reflects a red hue to the moon which appears to look crimson at the time the Earth's and moon's orbits align.  The third in two years, this blood moon will take place during the feast of Passover and the triune holy days of Easter.  Blood moons are very rare historical events and we are experiencing four in a short span of time. Ironically the blood moon will not be able to be seen from the Middle East because the moon will be on the opposite side of the earth. The East coast of the US should be able to see the eclipse in the early morning hours from 5 AM until 7:30 AM, while the best view will be seen from Hawaii and the West Coast of the US starting at 2 AM.  Eastern Asia, Japan and Eastern Australia will have a complete view.

The 2015 vernal equinox takes place on a day when the northern part of the earth was plunged into darkness during a full solar eclipse and a new super moon.  Super moons can refer to full moons or new moons.  A super moon is also a rare event that takes place when the moons orbit passes very close to the earth. It is about 222,000 miles away during a super moon. There is to be one more blood moon to end the tetrad and it will fall during the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles on September 28, making it the fourth in a series of blood moons occurring at the time of a Jewish holy day. Some groups are saying its cataclysmic and that it professes that the end of the world is near.

Perhaps the end of the world happens every day but some days more than others as the emanating light frequencies change and our world as we know it has changed forever. When we change the world changes with us.  After all we are God encoded with light and mathematical genius. The turbines of our sinus passages create the golden mean ratio which is half of pi every time we inhale and the result is life force energy.  Perhaps that is why elephants are so intrinsically attuned to one another.  They are probably so much more sensitive and knowing than we can even imagine. Perhaps that is why there is an Elephant God named Ganesh who is referred to as The Remover of Obstacles in the Hindu Scriptures.

As a Meditation Instructor, I like to look at these events as heightening our sense of emotion and spirituality and to see the common thread between our minds and the universe that surrounds us.  As we shed light into our mind, we turn up our frequency as a receiver and a transmitter of light which results in radiant health our birthright. Previously hardened areas of our mind soften and we switch from duality consciousness into an awareness of oneness.

Externally there appears the illusion as there is a murky, fear-based scenario which is trying to pull us into its distortion band, but we are bursting free and refuse to feed the illusions of duality any more.

These are just some of the marvelous mystical mysteries that surround us and inform us all to the mystical.

So tune in with meditation and contemplative prayer in order to explore the mystical side of yourself and the energy in motion will catapult you into your Trueness.  As we do this we change the world within as with out and we will get to witness a new landscape the one we have always dreamed of, the one that is in our hearts where all get nourished.

How to Energize Our Chakras, Our Rainbows of Light Energy

The earth is alive and vibrational, it has chakras and a feminine serpent like energy flow referred to as kundalini.  As understanding permits and knowledge engenders this period of time on Mother Earth is targeted for the earth to change its own chakra influence from the third chakra to the fourth chakra and individuals who have opened their heart chakra more than halfway, 51 % or more will be orchestrated into a higher vibration naturally because they are tuned in. The souls who have not been able to learn the power lessons of the third chakra which release the ego to surrender to the heart will not ascend in this lifetime and will need to repeat the third chakra lessons of power and individuality until they are ready to surrender to the heart and ascend into the fourth chakra consciousness.
Recently channelled information puts forth that the earth is ascending its frequency into a very beautiful and high vibration as it rises from the third to the fourth and fifth dimension within the next half a century as we flow from the age of Pieces into the golden age of Aquarius.
*
The avatars of all ages want us to know that the rivers of tide from Pieces flow abundantly with the light  into the the age of Aquarius now. Behold the water bearer Aquarius pouring forth waters of peace and joy uniting our people. They are running freely and just teeming with the fish of pieces and shall flow through the water bearer and be poured out upon all great nations.
We are them and they are us. There is a reason we all breathe the same air that keeps all of us alive. It is the tapestry, the matrix of our God head. Feel this and know we are one.


The Arcturus photon belt will shower the planet with Godly light frequencies and the fifth dimension will enjoy peace and harmony just like the lyrics of the song called "The Age Of Aquarius/ Let The Sun Shine IN" sung by the group named The Fifth Dimension" . the song was devised for the the musical production "Hair". Hair was the brainchild of two men who were actors and composers James Rado and Gerome Ragni.

There are many good books written about time and earth shifts and the precession of the equinoxes.  This is not new material. It just has not been commonly taught.  It has been reserved for students of the mystery schools because the information enlightens individuals and some individuals may not be ready in their hearts for this material which could be misunderstood and engender fear or projection or even ridicule. So it was kept apart from mainstream society until the time ripened the seeds of growth and matured the souls reception according to its choices of free will.

A quote from Buddha is appropriate now.  "When the student is ready the Master appears".  The Master may not be apparent.  By placing your mind in alignment with Universal Divine Mind on a regular basis it shall become ingrained and life will seem easier.  The mind can heal the body for this reason but the mind must resonate fully into this knowledge and let go of old belief patterns.  With your desire and prayer trust that you will receive what you need.
Vibratory lessons abound. And you shall receive as much as you are ready to. You are never alone. So prepare yourself by surrendering to the Divine your lower vibrational aspects of fear and control which don't correspond to your true self which is a divine being. Draw your impetus towards the Divine every day and you shall be assisted Divinely. Easing your life into a balanced atonement so that the symphony of your particular instrument is orchestrated with all who hear this message. When two thirds of mankind is attuned we shall be ready for the inheritance of light which is our birthright but we must make this choice because we have chosen to have free will.

Mid-Winter Snow

Mid-Winter Snow

(Note:  To see poem  "Mid- Winter Snow"  please go to
 padmariacarmichael.blogspot.com or Maria Carmichael's Poems)

It is snowing this morning and I have learned to stay as a child and to see magic where I can.  In the snowy wonder of dawn I seek the light of prayer like rays to fill my heart with sweet nectars of joy. Drawing it near my lips in kind to fill and nourish my soul, snow beckons me to find the silver lining in each cloud. For this I contemplate and awe of nature fuels me finest with gifts of bounteous beauty where I take refuge and delight. I see my prayers grow wings, and on a two way beam I receive that which I give and  that which I appreciate then adorns me fair with nothing but beauty it's like my hair, a crown of glory for my feline face, it cloaks me with Gods grace. For this is rapture I do acknowledge but tis so sweet to take precious moments in this great garden that is given free. Earth's elements are so grand they swell my fancy, soaring my soul to over flow with their magnificence.

I take a moment to capture snow flakes on my sleeve and they are as stars. My new red pendant comes to mind and I take my valentines gift and place it on my woolen hand as the flakes fluffing land next to the jewel red heart. So pleased am I to see the symbols of love and mystery together.  A juxtaposition of a black and white world with red inspires a poem and photos.

Now the mid-winter snow winds down. To the animals, it is drink, to me it is a jewel that glistens and shimmers.  In the opposite season, waving fodder in the breeze pleases the creatures as it fulfills their hunger and even I drink in its bounty and  it colors my being with its beauty. But alas  today frost billows in the air as breath freezes into curls of smoke and the newly fallen snow graces the older drifts and the squirrels come to my glass door to remind me to see them.  I heartily slip outside and toss out cards of peanut butter smeared with sunflower seeds.

Gratefully I surrender to the being of creation and hope my path is easy this day for now it seems so.  However challenges do make us grow. Some make us crumble to our knees and these we all do know. So I find that magic where I can for it will be the wings that help support a heart to endure what may seem impossible.  In time, I find the stitches that weave the path of forever beyond the limitations of what seems to appear unencroachable.

Banish Darkness

All is connected to mind. There is nothing outside of yourself.  Let go of the idea of form and surrender so the holy spirit can perform miracles within our thought system.  God has placed sacred thoughts in our mind.  We just have to connect to them. However they can not be accessed if we are in a state of fear.  

Beware of false Gods such as the television.  It is programmed to program us with fear and weakness.  The programming seeks to make us dependent on the system of man made rules and attack. The ruling elite wants to addict us to something because then we are under control and our behavior is predictable.  Do not mistake this, it seeks to keep us from God and our sacred self by continually instilling fear of attack and war and persecution into our thought system. So choose carefully and with this awareness.

This is the escape from darkness!

The Illusion of hiding our thoughts creates hell.  When we are ashamed of ourselves our mind begins to cover up our embarrassment. It seeks to hide and escape and eventually we loose contact with our true sacred self. This may be the beginning of feeling depressed.  Hell is s mental state. Escape may be sought in a bottle or a television set but it is a self perpetuating cycle.  To break it one has to want to bad enough and be inspired to go deep within after preparing with a mentor or a teacher or someone who has transcended the mundane.

The idea that you are the originator of thoughts creates a state where you think you can control thoughts and that you can hide thoughts. ILLusion is thinking you must fix them.  Fear and guilt beset us then! We blame ourself and then project this blame on to others so that it is not so heavy to carry alone.  When we get stuck on this roller coaster from hell we may seek to self medicate as a form of escape. 

When you attempt to make things right you fall into that trap of illusion.
So let go of this misinformation now.  You are not the source of mind GOD is.

So how could you be the fixer? Then how could you be blamed. 
Blaming yourself and others is a fantasy.  The truth is within.  I seek truth and many times I find myself living the Illusion but eventually I surrender to God.  Nature is our Earth Mother.  She helps me when I get stuck.  Even in winter when it gets dark and cold and the holidays make me frantic trying to get everything done, I notice the beauty of a snowflake and I am reminded of our crystalline form.  A return to my inner self is gifted back to me from mother nature.  Then I recall what has been instilled in me when I have been too busy to recall it myself. Love is all that truly matters.

Simply surrender and feed and nurture peace and love. Go towards the arts that help you ascend your consciousness awakening your true inner healing and joy that is your birthright. Practice until it becomes habitual. These are words but words can set you free if you use them with the awareness of your inner radiance and seek a teacher or mentor that aligns with your resonance. Seek and it is given onto you.  When the student is ready a teacher appears.


The Holy Spirit is the only way to transcend ego mind.  Logic without inner awareness creates suffering as it instills separation and comparison. Winning becomes important and gathering more form to boost the hungry ego mind takes precedent and eats away at your inner voice, your soul.  Surrender your ego mind to the Holy Spirit. This is not just for one group of people, the Holy Spirit can be thought of in any way that you are comfortable thinking of it. It is your way to wholeness and that is why it is called holy and it is called spirit because it can not be perceived as a concrete form.  And a blanket of peace will wrap around you and your mind is Divinely protected.  Banish darkness away.  

In 2004 I was inspired to certify as a meditation instructor with a teacher who espoused all the things that make our hearts happy.  Qualities such as caring consideration, intelligent  honesty, loving compassion, inner knowing and wisdom combined in this human being that manifested before my eyes. I wanted to study whatever he was willing to teach me and so it is that I became a meditation instructor.

Physically my teacher did not have the typical ascetic appearance of a guru.  The man who inspired me to become a meditation and yoga instructor is a huge teddybear of a man.  He explained that he had cleansed and purged so many times for so many years while living with his wife at an Integral Yoga Ashram. As the right hand man to the ashrams founder the infamous Swami Satchidananda he fasted to gain insight as he studied the yoga sutras of Patanjali and the holy scriptures called the Bhagavad Gita.  Reverend Jaganath, my mentor explained that his metabolism is one that is prone to this.  He used an analogy to explain body types.  He said some people are string-beans and others are pumpkins.  

I thought about this and recalled that when I was quite young and too thin for others comfort.  My mother was afraid I had a tapeworm and I began to think it was totally disgusting that worms could be living within me. It turns out I just had a fast burn metabolism and muscles that like to work and therefore burned calories with ease.      As I got older I ate with an awareness towards health and energy because my system is sensitive and I feel awful when I eat out of balance. So I was always thin and never thought much about it. Apparently others did and I was even accused of being anorexic by people who struggled to be thin because it was fashionable. I knew that wasn't true.  In fact I ate at least six times a day.  I even began taking in banana chocolate milkshakes to try to gain weight. Much later I discovered that I don't metabolize all foods and the lining in my intestine is sensitive to certain carbohydrates which perforate it and cause extreme sensitivities to occur. So my teacher is just an opposite body type than I who was born a string bean.

At the Integral Yoga Center I found peace and tranquility and loving people who cared about health and teaching me how to go deeper within myself and this led me to Source. 

I had never even thought of becoming a teacher of yoga as I had judged myself to be inflexible.  My family members have a genetic predisposition towards strength without bulk and I easily performed competitively in Korean Martial Arts. But I had always struggled with flexibility.  When I was nineteen I indulged a passion for dance so I studied ballet tap and jazz. I became good enough to perform non-professionally and enjoyed that immensely.  I loved it but my flexibility was less than a dancer needs for certain moves.   

Reverend Jaganath encouraged me when he said the best yoga teachers are the ones who have to work at flexibility because they don't take it for granted. True flexibility comes from a flexible mind not a flexible body.  Wow I soared when I heard that.


So now I feed my mind with uplifting material on a daily basis. I implement yoga practices that put me in touch with the Holy Spirit and I surrender.  This is how I banish darkness and I seek to share the light.

Calling All Mothers

As I log into my post today I see I have not entered anything for almost a year.  I tend to dream more in the cold frosty months of winter and writing is something that occurs more for me then due to the nature of hibernating.  Today I have logged in to look over my postings to see what I have posted about healing and light. As I notice a posting fromApril of 2013, I recall those days and I link myself to today January 15, 2015.  It is my brother Joe's' oldest child's birthday.  Niki is 19 years old today and celebrating out of state where she attends school. This past Sunday we celebrated our Dad's birthday with Scottish food in NY.  Tomorrow is my sister Karen's oldest child's birthday.  It is also the day of our Mom's passing on ten whole years ago.  In fact I have just read an e mail from my Dad who says it is God's gift to remember the 10th Anniversary of Mom's earthly loss with a prayer to the Lord for Mom and to ask Mom to pray for all of us and to enjoy our birthdays and appreciate the days that The Lord has provided.

I do not believe it is just a synchronicity that I found myself reading a posting today about a dream I had regarding Jack's mom. This recalled the dream I had when my own Mom passed away

THE DREAM
On the night of her passing I dreamed that my Mom was lying in her hospital bed and as I mournfully looked at her deceased body, I heard her speak.  In the dream my eyes flew open and I grew excited.
Her voice said; "Do not be afraid.  It's so beautiful.  There are so many stars".  At first I thought that she was coming back to life and I felt profound disappointment but after analyzing this dream it is the most profound message of eternal life and I always smile to see stars!

Today another amazing synchronicity occurred that is a message of comminication occurred. My sister Karen phoned to tell me she was amazed and that I would not believe what she was going to say.  Her son Ryan had requested a birthday present that she was not sure she could obtain for him.  Karen's twin brother Kenny helped her obtain the present that her son had requested but it was not expected to arrive before his birthday.  Surprisingly it arrived just in time and when Karen opened it she read a message to insert a pin code to activate the device. She could not believe that the number was my complete birthdate to the day and year. When I heard this I immediately sensed the presence of angels and our Mom orchestrating this. My Mother's birthday is 9-3 and mine is also 9-30. and by the way Jacks Father's birthday is the same as my Mother's.   There are no accidents.

Presently, a wonderful friend of ours is up from sunny Florida, where she recently relocated, to celebrate the birth of her first grandchild.  We met Lisa at a party several years ago and there were so many numerical coincidences that we took notice. Her birthday number is 11.  That is a special number in my family too. My Dad's birthday is 1-11.  Since 2008 I see that number everywhere, on receipts, odometers, clocks, license plates and so frequently it cannot be overlooked.  In the science of numerology,  Eleven is considered a master number and is not broken down to a single digit like the other multiple digit numbers are to find their numerological weight.  Jack's oldest child day of birth is 22 and it occurs in the same month as Lisa's birthday  Since 22 is 11 times 2, it also carries within it an eleven master code. and Jack has a set of twins born three years later and by Eleven hours  just missed being born on the 22nd of that month as well. So Jack celebrates three children birthdays within twenty four hours. Our friend Lisa was baptized in the same church in the Bronx that Jack was baptized in.  Additionally Lisa has a very good friend from her childhood who is the child of Jack's parents very good friend.  So we helped put them back in touch. New York City is just teeming with people and places.  I am a firm believer in sacred geometry.

Just before we were going to a celebratory dinner with  our friend a new grandmother, Jack got a phone call that was ironically heartbreaking. That number will now be a sad memory as well a grand memory. Isn't that life?

There is aught but light so pray for enlightenment for yourselves.

Note: I meant to post this last evening on January 15 so the terms tomorrow in this mean today January 16,  my nephew Ryan's birthday and my Mom's day of departure.

Om Shanthi!(Peace of God)
