Creating Light Spheres of Pure Potentiality

On a personal level, so much change is flowing into my life. It has been a bit of a quirky time for me! One of my major lessons within the unfolding, is entraining my mind so that it is in a continual state of divine flow. The energy of change is illumining for me something quite remarkable. Admidst the flux and flow of change I become aware of the many layers of conditioning that have me dwelling on the past or stressing about the future. I also become inherently aware of a previously hidden opportunity.

You see when I find myself experiencing change, there is this moment. My concept of time and space suspends for an instant, and I experience the space in-between the external stimulous and automated response. Within this moment, I can choose to intervene and create a conscious, fully realized response. I can choose to attune my thoughts and feelings with the highest vibration of Love ~ and create light spheres of pure potentiality.

By focusing on maintaining present-moment awareness I find that more and more, I am able to catch myself mid-thought. One powerful exercise I am working with involves inviting thoughts (especially those nagging thoughts!) to come to the fore. I imagine sitting under the Bodhi Tree with the deities. I feel very calm, supported and relaxed. Within this space, I initiate some self-talk, I invite the thought (regardless of whether it is perceived as positive or negative) to come sit with me, share with me. I ask the thought where it came from, what it is associated with, where is it located in my body and what it wishes to express. This is a powerful practice that gifts me with very direct information. Curiously, in many instances the thought will simply dissolve.

The challenge presented with so much rapid, accelerated change resides in being fully present with my thoughts and feelings. Sometimes there is a great temptation to try to suppress, to think of something else, or to immerse myself in the energy of distraction. This tends to create a whirling vortex of attention screaming thoughts. It’s like trying not to think of a monkey. My yogi offered a vast sum of money to his attendees in study, if anyone, in the moment, could “not” think of a monkey. Try it right now. Do not under any circumstances think of a monkey. Oh, this is such a fun exercise! Are there cheeky monkeys playing havok in your mind’s eye? It is the same with those feelings that we try to suppress.

It takes great courage to be real with yourself, to face life with a loving, open heart. The essence of love is a gentle balm and as I write I feel such a beautiful connection with the Universal Heart. I am inspired by the infinite wellspring of Universal Love/Divine Consciousness. I envision being able to draw from this wellspring at any time, Light Spheres of Pure Potentiality. I imagine (create) golden orbs of light brimming with abiding love. These beautiful orbs of light illumine my resolve, as they fill my physical, mental, emotional, and energy light body with ever-greater spheres of love, light and information.

The following is a beautiful light reminder. It a translation of the introductory verse for Upanishads of the Taittiriya Samhita of Yajur-Veda:

“Let us be together, Let us eat together, Let us be vital together, Let us be radiating truth, radiating the light of life, Never shall we denounce anyone, never entertain negativity.”

Om Shantih, Shantih, Shantih
