The creative power of the universe is infinite. A single molecule's destiny is as important as the consequences of the largest supernova. Human potential is subject to this power, but because we are sentient beings, each of us is permitted to choose whether we will struggle against it or work in tandem with it. When we give voice to our desires through focused meditation or solicit the help of spirit guides, we draw upon the universe's creative power to achieve certain ends. However, because our words are not all the universe hears, the response we receive may surprise us. The discourse we establish through our appeals is a blend of speech, thought, intention, and subconscious reflection. When we ask the universe for something, the unspoken message is that what we want does not exist, and the universe accepts this as truth. Conversely, we manifest completeness through affirmations in which we declare our desires as if we have already obtained them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we affirm that we are fulfilled instead of articulating deficiencies, we are asserting that contentment is a natural and necessary element of human existence. Our essence is an expression of fulfillment—the universe wants to satisfy our needs and desires. When we describe our realities in positive terms, we are not denying the challenges inherent in existence. We choose not to focus on lack or dissatisfaction because we understand that the energy of our thoughts will determine the response we receive to our entreaties. Ask yourself how you would feel if your wishes were granted, and then allow yourself to internalize that emotional state. Try to create a picture of satisfaction so vivid that its reality is unquestionable and tell the universe that your vision is fact. At the close of your appeal, express your gratitude, as it is your acknowledgment of the truth of your fulfillment that will set the creative power of the universe into motion. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Working in perfect unison with the creative power of the universe will empower you to manifest spiritual realities in your material existence. As you affirm the beauty, peace, and goodness that already exist within in your life, your capacity to sense and understand their influence will become increasingly sophisticated. To meet your needs and achieve your desires, you need then only banish all thoughts of emptiness so that the energy of completeness can attract fullness into your being. &lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
**I love what Buddha say as we all should become our own scientist to feel our way through all aspects of life, &amp;nbsp;to choose what feels right to us and not follow the rest of the world and it's trends. &amp;nbsp;Be the completely authentic &amp;nbsp;"YOU".&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Today's affirmation: &lt;i&gt;"My ships come in over a calm sea, under grace in perfect ways."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The emotions running through me as I wrote the affirmation down and spoke them out loud was a feeling of knowing and excitement that these ships that were sailing in were my ships full of all my desires with grace and ease.  This symbolism inherent and the divine meaning of this card activates or triggers enterprise, strength, establishment, effort, trade, commerce, discovery. See, these are my ships that are bringing my merchandise as they sail towards me over a calm sea.  It feel great as each days goes by and know that I am still committed and the shifts happening are profound and visible.  My beliefs are being cleaned up or shall I say aligned into perfect expression of my higher self.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During this course I have met many new people who are going to be participating with my non-profit project and all happening so quickly after I started this course.  How amazing and so exciting.  I'm in grate gratitude for this process of realignment and I look forward to sharing many more experiences.  I thought I share a little bit of what Ellen shared with me I hope it strikes a cord with you and inspires you in some way.  Stay tuned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;ENTHUSIASM FROM ELLEN:&lt;/b&gt;From all of my experiences in coaching clients from a place of financial fear to one of abundance and prosperity I have never NOT found a smidge (or much more!) of skepticism regards this entire process starting to set in around Day Seven. So pretty sure that right about here and now you too might be giving way to doubt. If that is the case, there is no cause for concern. These antidotes, adjustments and cures have been borne out for over five thousand years. YOU will not be the first Feng Shui casualty. I promise. Look, of all the enemies that might prevent you from fulfilling your purpose and potential of embracing a life of abundance and joy, the most malignant might just be self-sabotage. Let's go ahead and admit that this sort of self directed stumbling block is just all wet. And then let's soak the sabotage by putting today's cure in place. Whenever...wait, let me say it again...WHENEVER we fear something, we feed it energy. However, when you stare at the fear in the face it will turn and walk away from you. That's proven fact. YOU ARE WORTH IT!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1520051221150839501-3097002040297188240?l=sambranco.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~4/6MH5YmnvwjE" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://sambranco.blogspot.com/feeds/3097002040297188240/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1520051221150839501&amp;postID=3097002040297188240&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/3097002040297188240?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/3097002040297188240?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~3/6MH5YmnvwjE/day-7-of-becoming-money-magnet.html" title="Day 7 of Becoming a Money Magnet" /><author><name>Empower and Heal Yourself</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03851999490194243321</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="21" height="32" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Lms5ZbrlYJQ/SUgeKQEZfGI/AAAAAAAAALE/9bWxQeCSD4Y/S220/sam.jpg" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xHGHqQ-Gmp0/TtyDPzkdRuI/AAAAAAAAAUE/UuSVt_vL49o/s72-c/Crystal+03.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://sambranco.blogspot.com/2011/12/day-7-of-becoming-money-magnet.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;CkIEQXg4eyp7ImA9WhRRGUk.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1520051221150839501.post-1423955025512406534</id><published>2011-12-03T10:55:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-03T11:28:20.633-08:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2011-12-03T11:28:20.633-08:00</app:edited><title>Day 6 of Becoming a Money Magnet</title><content type="html">

This is day 6 day and I am becoming more aware that this course "Becoming A Money Magnet" is much more that I have ever imagined. &amp;nbsp;What I feel is more of alignment to my divine full expression of who I am that is completely connected to the universe and it's expansiveness. &amp;nbsp;What I feel that Ellen is teaching me is that you can truly apply this to all aspects of our lives as it's about commitment, authenticity, focus, passion, love and most of all consistency. &amp;nbsp;We all know that if we apply these attributes in our relationships, financial dreams, physical bodies, mind and spiritual&amp;nbsp;practice we would experience a flow that is bigger than we can ever imagine. It seems easier to stay in our little boxes we have created than to step out into the unknown. &amp;nbsp;Remember that quote Oprah uses time and time again "God can dream a bigger dream for you than you can ever dream for yourself", well it feel like that when you are directly in the abundant flow of life receiving all and more of that which you desire. &amp;nbsp;We are truly here to experience the highest and best expression of ourselves. &amp;nbsp;It is our birthright and divine promise, it is we who stand in the way of the divine flow with fear, gilt, lack of focus and disbelief. &amp;nbsp;Today's class reminded me that "Gratitude" is an&amp;nbsp;important&amp;nbsp;part of being in the divine flow. &amp;nbsp;Throughout my day starting as soon as I open up my eyes stating to God and the universe how grateful I am to have this physical experience and may I live my highest and best expression. &amp;nbsp;When you are feeling down, lonely, tired and hopeless sit still for a few minutes and take 3 deep&amp;nbsp;breathes and start saying everything that you are grateful for and trust me you will shift your energy so fast you will have forgotten why you were so down in the first place. &amp;nbsp;Keep doing it and see where you are lead on your own journey. &amp;nbsp;Stay tuned for tomorrow, Namaste&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1520051221150839501-1423955025512406534?l=sambranco.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~4/GSD_v5X8zLw" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://sambranco.blogspot.com/feeds/1423955025512406534/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1520051221150839501&amp;postID=1423955025512406534&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/1423955025512406534?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/1423955025512406534?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~3/GSD_v5X8zLw/day-6-of-becoming-money-magnet.html" title="Day 6 of Becoming a Money Magnet" /><author><name>Empower and Heal Yourself</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03851999490194243321</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="21" height="32" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Lms5ZbrlYJQ/SUgeKQEZfGI/AAAAAAAAALE/9bWxQeCSD4Y/S220/sam.jpg" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-U0AzV7EEN_A/TtpwoYTNNwI/AAAAAAAAAT8/B5b0fGolY5M/s72-c/Crystal+02.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://sambranco.blogspot.com/2011/12/day-6-of-becoming-money-magnet.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;CUYAQHkycSp7ImA9WhRRGEk.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1520051221150839501.post-7774076501266243160</id><published>2011-12-02T08:09:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-02T08:25:41.799-08:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2011-12-02T08:25:41.799-08:00</app:edited><title>Day 5 of Becoming a Money Magnet</title><content type="html">

It has come to my attention this morning that the following quote stated by Abraham-Hicks truly resonated with me:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;"The main event has never been the manifestation; the main event has always been the way you feel moment by moment, because that's what life is. "--- Abraham&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
It really isn't the manifestation it's the journey along the way and how it made you feel. &amp;nbsp;During the last 5 days of this 27 day course I have experienced a more define desire with detailed descriptions, yet as I wrote this all done in red ink I felt as if it was all being created in a more profound way. &amp;nbsp;It's only been 5 days and today I begin my&amp;nbsp;sixth affirmation and lesson, but I am more excited about life and less worried about anything as I come into full expression of my highest and best self the I AM.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Also, this lesson is really about all aspect of abundance, mentally, spiritually, physically, financially and in your relationships and becoming more aware of who you are and how you feel. &amp;nbsp;Having a clear and honest relationship with yourself has become even more important on this journey and truly wonderful. &amp;nbsp;My intention is to be the highest and best expression of myself and live a full life on all planes of my&amp;nbsp;existence.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Remember to write down in detail that you wish to manifest and take your time and feel the emotions with each stroke of the pen and make sure to write in RED ink. &amp;nbsp;More to come and make it a wonderful weekend. &amp;nbsp;Namaste.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;a href="http://exposingthetruth.info/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/OLD-Happy_Old_Man.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://exposingthetruth.info/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/OLD-Happy_Old_Man-300x193.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;For many years I worked in palliative care. My patients were those who had gone home to die. Some incredibly special times were shared. I was with them for the last three to twelve weeks of their lives.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People grow a lot when they are faced with their own mortality. I learnt never to underestimate someone’s capacity for growth. Some changes were phenomenal. Each experienced a variety of emotions, as expected, denial, fear, anger, remorse, more denial and eventually acceptance. Every single patient found their peace before they departed though, every one of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;When questioned about any regrets they had or anything they would do differently, common themes surfaced again and again. Here are the most common five:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;1. I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was the most common regret of all. When people realise that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people had not honoured even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they had made, or not made.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is very important to try and honour at least some of your dreams along the way. From the moment that you lose your health, it is too late. Health brings a freedom very few realise, until they no longer have it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2. I wish I didn’t work so hard. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This came from every male patient that I nursed. They missed their children’s youth and their partner’s companionship. Women also spoke of this regret. But as most were from an older generation, many of the female patients had not been breadwinners. All of the men I nursed deeply regretted spending so much of their lives on the treadmill of a work existence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By simplifying your lifestyle and making conscious choices along the way, it is possible to not need the income that you think you do. And by creating more space in your life, you become happier and more open to new opportunities, ones more suited to your new lifestyle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;3. I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace with others. As a result, they settled for a mediocre existence and never became who they were truly capable of becoming. Many developed illnesses relating to the bitterness and resentment they carried as a result.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We cannot control the reactions of others. However, although people may initially react when you change the way you are by speaking honestly, in the end it raises the relationship to a whole new and healthier level. Either that or it releases the unhealthy relationship from your life. Either way, you win.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Often they would not truly realise the full benefits of old friends until their dying weeks and it was not always possible to track them down. Many had become so caught up in their own lives that they had let golden friendships slip by over the years. There were many deep regrets about not giving friendships the time and effort that they deserved. Everyone misses their friends when they are dying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is common for anyone in a busy lifestyle to let friendships slip. But when you are faced with your approaching death, the physical details of life fall away. People do want to get their financial affairs in order if possible. But it is not money or status that holds the true importance for them. They want to get things in order more for the benefit of those they love. Usually though, they are too ill and weary to ever manage this task. It is all comes down to love and relationships in the end. That is all that remains in the final weeks, love and relationships.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5. I wish that I had let myself be happier. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a surprisingly common one. Many did not realise until the end that happiness is a choice. They had stayed stuck in old patterns and habits. The so-called ‘comfort’ of familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending to others, and to their selves, that they were content. When deep within, they longed to laugh properly and have silliness in their life again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you are on your deathbed, what others think of you is a long way from your mind. How wonderful to be able to let go and smile again, long before you are dying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Life is a choice. It is YOUR life. Choose consciously, choose wisely, choose honestly. Choose happiness. &amp;nbsp;Live your highest and best life that you came here to live and do it with so much love and laughter.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1520051221150839501-3446922459177122892?l=sambranco.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~4/ERTU3ugniOU" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://sambranco.blogspot.com/feeds/3446922459177122892/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1520051221150839501&amp;postID=3446922459177122892&amp;isPopup=true" title="2 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/3446922459177122892?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/3446922459177122892?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~3/ERTU3ugniOU/top-five-regrets-of-dying.html" title="Top Five Regrets of The Dying" /><author><name>Empower and Heal Yourself</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03851999490194243321</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="21" height="32" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Lms5ZbrlYJQ/SUgeKQEZfGI/AAAAAAAAALE/9bWxQeCSD4Y/S220/sam.jpg" /></author><thr:total>2</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://sambranco.blogspot.com/2011/12/top-five-regrets-of-dying.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;DEYHSHk_fip7ImA9WhRREUg.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1520051221150839501.post-7355879776860163520</id><published>2011-11-24T08:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-24T09:35:39.746-08:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2011-11-24T09:35:39.746-08:00</app:edited><title>Benefits of en-kriya by Nithyananda</title><content type="html">

&lt;a href="http://mobile.presskit247.com/images/SiteImages/Site670/Paramahamsa%20Nithyananda_04.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="180" width="140" src="http://mobile.presskit247.com/images/SiteImages/Site670/Paramahamsa%20Nithyananda_04.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Paramahamsa Nithyananda and his new yogic teaching called eN-Kriya which he announced to the world on January 29th, 2011.

In three YouTube videos (first is above), Nithyananda covers eN-Kriya in enough detail such that anyone can start practicing. I have been practicing it from the time it was introduced to me (about two weeks ago) and have not been this impressed with a practice since Satyananda's 20 Kundalini Kriyas. In fact, it even has many advantages over the Kundalini Kriyas which I'll describe in detail in subsequent posts.

In this post, I'll summarize the key points in this first video as means of introduction to Nithyananda and eN-Kriya. The video starts with Nithyananda welcoming everyone with his love and respect (1:00). He then invokes the presence of all the great masters and offers his respect to them as well (3:00). He discusses some of the benefits of eN-Kriya starting with the usual ones of health and well being, as the pranic level rises in your system (6:30). He discusses the research and development that was done for eN-Kriya prior to this public launch (7:30). He mentions the scientific results achieved by his trial participants (9:30). He gives full credit to the great masters for discovering the technique and says his only role was to test it out and deliver it to the world (10:20).

It was at the 12:30 mark when my ears really perked up at his mention of Swami Satyananda Saraswati. He then goes on to discuss the underlying workings of eN-Kriya which involves balancing the 5 breathing moments: prana, apana, vyana, udana, and samana (13:30). He describes them as inhaling (one), holding the breath in (two), the prana separating from the air and spreading throughout the body (three), exhaling (four), and cleaning (five) (16:00). He says when these 5 pranas are balanced you live a healthy life, and when they are awakened, you live an enlightened life, and when they are out of balance you experience disorders (18:00).

I would also like to add some additional detail regarding these 5 pranic energies and their role in the body-mind-spirit complex (system). I provide a general description of the energy action along with specific examples for ease of understanding. Prana is the intake of energy into the system (eating food, inhaling air). Samana is the processing of that energy by the system (digesting food, extracting oxygen). Vyana is the distribution of that energy throughout the system (blood circulation). Udana is the use or release of that energy by the system (actions, words). Apana is the elimination of waste energy from the system (bowel movement, exhaling carbon dioxide).

Nithyananda says he hopes to one day prove to the world that all diseases can be cured (19:00). He says eN-Kriya will even free you from the birth-death cycle itself (20:00). He mentions Mahavatar Babaji and the anti-aging effect of Kriya yoga (22:30). He says he has condensed eN-Kriya such that it will take only 42 minutes to complete (26:00). Later, he again mentions Mahavatar Babaji and gives him credit for keeping Kriya yoga alive on Earth (30:50). He talks about techniques coming soon, like eN-Yoga which will be 54 postures, eN-Mudra and eN-Dhyana (32:00). He concludes by taking about yet another result of these techniques which he calls the eN-Effect. That is the reduction in crime rate, wars and natural calamities (34:00). This is something not usually part of yogic practice but often practiced in the new age community, and eN-Kriya incorporates these aspects of new age meditation as well which I find quite exciting.

The next two videos (and my next two posts) will focus on the specific details of the eN-Kriya technique.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1520051221150839501-7355879776860163520?l=sambranco.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~4/XbHgIuZ2Ybw" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://sambranco.blogspot.com/feeds/7355879776860163520/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1520051221150839501&amp;postID=7355879776860163520&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/7355879776860163520?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/7355879776860163520?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~3/XbHgIuZ2Ybw/benefits-of-en-kriya-by-nithyananda.html" title="Benefits of en-kriya by Nithyananda" /><author><name>Empower and Heal Yourself</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03851999490194243321</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="21" height="32" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Lms5ZbrlYJQ/SUgeKQEZfGI/AAAAAAAAALE/9bWxQeCSD4Y/S220/sam.jpg" /></author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://sambranco.blogspot.com/2011/11/benefits-of-en-kriya-by-nithyananda.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;A0MFR3ozeip7ImA9WhRSEE8.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1520051221150839501.post-8307991953088340250</id><published>2011-11-11T08:32:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-11T08:36:56.482-08:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2011-11-11T08:36:56.482-08:00</app:edited><title>11.11.11 Braco "Live Gazing Event from Sedona, AZ"</title><content type="html">

&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Whatever the nature of your feelings, carefully define the reaction taking place within you.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our feelings can sometimes present a very challenging aspect of our lives. We experience intense emotions without understanding precisely why and consequently find it difficult to identify the solutions that will soothe our distressed minds and hearts. Yet it is only when we are capable of naming our feelings that we can tame them by finding an appropriate resolution. We retake control of our personal power by becoming courageous enough to articulate, out loud and concisely, the essence of our emotions. Our assuming ownership of the challenges before us in this way empowers us to shift from one emotional state to another謡e can let go of pain and upset because we have defined it, examined the effect it had on our lives, and then exerted our authority over it by making it our own. By naming our feelings, we claim the right to divest ourselves of them at will. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you prepare to acknowledge your feelings aloud, gently remind yourself that being specific is an important part of exercising control. Whatever the nature of your feelings, carefully define the reaction taking place within you. If you are afraid of a situation or intimidated by an individual, try not to mince words while giving voice to your anxiety. The precision with which you express yourself is indicative of your overall willingness to stare your feelings in the face without flinching. Naming and claiming cannot always work in the vacuum of the soul. There may be times in which you will find the release you desire only by admitting your feelings before others. When this is the case, your ability to outline your feelings explicitly can help you ask for the support, aid, or guidance you need without becoming mired in the feelings that led you to make such an admission in the first place. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you have moved past the apprehension associated with expressing your distressing feelings out loud, you may be surprised to discover that you feel liberated and lightened. This is because the act of making a clear connection between your circumstances and your feelings unravels the mystery that previously kept you from being in complete control of your emotional state. To give voice to your feelings, you must necessarily let them go. In the process, you naturally relax and rediscover your emotional equilibrium. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1520051221150839501-2344517413533277390?l=sambranco.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~4/lgnXMhiUGN8" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://sambranco.blogspot.com/feeds/2344517413533277390/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1520051221150839501&amp;postID=2344517413533277390&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/2344517413533277390?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/2344517413533277390?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~3/lgnXMhiUGN8/owning-your-emotions-name-it-and-claim.html" title="Owning Your Emotions | Name It and Claim It" /><author><name>Empower and Heal Yourself</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03851999490194243321</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="21" height="32" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Lms5ZbrlYJQ/SUgeKQEZfGI/AAAAAAAAALE/9bWxQeCSD4Y/S220/sam.jpg" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YCWwhnGrnQM/TCrVSGIQ4vI/AAAAAAAAAQA/db7JbGSJUV4/s72-c/Peacerainbowdove.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://sambranco.blogspot.com/2011/11/owning-your-emotions-name-it-and-claim.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;C0YDRX47eip7ImA9WhdbGEo.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1520051221150839501.post-6528121870283688895</id><published>2011-10-17T10:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-17T10:06:14.002-07:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2011-10-17T10:06:14.002-07:00</app:edited><title>Honoring Life Changes | The Wisdom of Fear</title><content type="html">

&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Anything worth doing will always have some fear attached to it. For example, having a baby, getting married, changing careers—all of these life changes can bring up deep fears. It helps to remember that this type of fear is good. It is your way of questioning whether you really want the new life these changes will bring. It is also a potent reminder that releasing and grieving the past is a necessary part of moving into the new. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fear has a way of throwing us off balance, making us feel uncertain and insecure, but it is not meant to discourage us. Its purpose is to notify us that we are at the edge of our comfort zone, poised in between the old life and a new one. Whenever we face our fear, we overcome an inner obstacle and move into new and life-enhancing territory, both inside and out. The more we learn to respect and even welcome fear, the more we will be able to hear its wisdom, wisdom that will let us know that the time has come to move forward, or not. While comfort with fear is a contradiction in terms, we can learn to honor our fear, recognizing its arrival, listening to its intelligence, and respecting it as a harbinger of transformation. Indeed, it informs us that the change we are contemplating is significant, enabling us to approach it with the proper reverence. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You might wish to converse with your fear, plumbing its depths for a greater understanding of the change you are making. You could do this by sitting quietly in meditation and listening or by journaling. Writing down whatever comes up—your worries, your sadness, your excitement, your hopes—is a great way to learn about yourself through the vehicle of fear and to remember that fear almost always comes alongside anything worth doing in your life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1520051221150839501-6528121870283688895?l=sambranco.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~4/5M5jz8lgzzo" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://sambranco.blogspot.com/feeds/6528121870283688895/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1520051221150839501&amp;postID=6528121870283688895&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/6528121870283688895?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/6528121870283688895?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~3/5M5jz8lgzzo/honoring-life-changes-wisdom-of-fear.html" title="Honoring Life Changes | The Wisdom of Fear" /><author><name>Empower and Heal Yourself</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03851999490194243321</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="21" height="32" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Lms5ZbrlYJQ/SUgeKQEZfGI/AAAAAAAAALE/9bWxQeCSD4Y/S220/sam.jpg" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0UzEvWf3_Y4/TpxgLGSB1HI/AAAAAAAAATU/MHEDM-3S5MM/s72-c/northern+lights.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://sambranco.blogspot.com/2011/10/honoring-life-changes-wisdom-of-fear.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;CEEER3w9cSp7ImA9WhdUGE4.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1520051221150839501.post-3848055649663554480</id><published>2011-10-05T09:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-05T09:36:46.269-07:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2011-10-05T09:36:46.269-07:00</app:edited><title>The Gift Within You</title><content type="html">

We all have the same things going on in our lives; they are in essence the same gift, wrapped in a different ribbon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have all had the experience of encountering someone whose life seems so completely different from ours that we can almost imagine we have nothing in common. However, if we go deeper into observing, we will see that we all have the same things going on in our lives. It is as if our different lives are in essence the same gift, wrapped in an infinite variety of containers, wrapping paper, ribbons, and bows. Everybody experiences loss, grief, happiness, excitement, anger, and fear. Everyone can have money issues of one kind or another, and everyone struggles with difficult choices. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our lives show up differently for each one of us because we each learn in different ways. One person may need to learn the value of money by having too little of it, while another may need to learn by having more than enough. We each learn about work and love, with experiences that are tailored to our particular perspective. Even as it appears that some people have it easy while others are in a continual state of struggle, the truth is that we are all learning, and it is very difficult to tell, when looking only at the exterior of a person, what's going on inside. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is one of the many things that can be so valuable about cultivating relationships with people from all walks of life. As we get to know those who seem so different from us, we get to really see how much of life's challenges and joys are universal. We begin to look beyond the packaging of skin color, clothing preferences, and socioeconomic differences, hairstyles, and the cars we drive to the heart of the human experience. It is important to honor and value the differences in our packaging, but it is just as important to honor the gift of life inside each one of us, and the fact that, no matter how different the packaging, the gift inside is the sam&lt;/div&gt;

There are many variations on the story of stone soup, but they all involve a traveler coming into a town beset by famine. The inhabitants try to discourage the traveler from staying, fearing he wants them to give him food. They tell him in no uncertain terms that there's no food anywhere to be found. The traveler explains that he doesn't need any food and that, in fact, he was planning to make a soup to share with all of them. The villagers watch suspiciously as he builds a fire and fills a cauldron with water. With great ceremony, he pulls a stone from a bag, dropping the stone into the pot of water. He sniffs the brew extravagantly and exclaims how delicious stone soup is. As the villagers begin to show interest, he mentions how good the soup would be with just a little cabbage in it. A villager brings out a cabbage to share. This episode repeats itself until the soup has cabbage, carrots, onions, and beets擁ndeed, a substantial soup that feeds everyone in the village. &lt;br /&gt;This story addresses the human tendency to hoard in times of deprivation. When resources are scarce, we pull back and put all of our energy into self-preservation. We isolate ourselves and shut out others. As the story of stone soup reveals, in doing so, we often deprive ourselves and everyone else of a feast. This metaphor plays out beyond the realm of food. We hoard ideas, love, and energy, thinking we will be richer if we keep to them to ourselves, when in truth we make the world, and ourselves, poorer whenever we greedily stockpile our reserves. The traveler was able to see that the villagers were holding back, and he had the genius to draw them out and inspire them to give, thus creating a spread that none of them could have created alone. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you like one of the villagers, holding back? If you come forward and share your gifts, you will inspire others to do the same. The reward is a banquet that can nourish many. &lt;/div&gt;

Upon waking, many people consider the coming day with trepidation. Because of the natural human tendency to focus on what we fear or dislike, it is easy to unwittingly send a message of unease into the future that negatively impacts the quality of your day. However, while our lives are busy and frequently replete with challenges, they are also rich with joy and experiences worth savoring. We can attract this natural bliss into our lives by starting each day with a message of love. When you send love ahead to your day, that love will manifest itself in your interpersonal interactions, your professional endeavors, and your domestic duties. Tasks and circumstances once made trying by your own anxiety are transformed by your love, and you will find yourself approaching life’s subtle nuances with great affection. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each morning, when you have cast off the fog of sleep, take several deep, grounding breaths and reaffirm the love you have for yourself. Speaking a loving, self-directed blessing aloud enables you to access and awaken the reservoir of tenderness in your soul. Before you leave the comfortable warmth of your bed, be sure to tell the universe that you are eager and ready to receive the blessings it has set aside for you. Then as you prepare to meet the day, visualize yourself first saturated by and then surrounded with a warm and soft loving light. Gradually widen the circle of this light until you are able to send it ahead into your future. If you are commuting to work, send love to the roads upon which you will drive, your fellow commuters, and your parking space. If you have colleagues who arrive at your workplace before you, send them love. Likewise, a day spent being a parent or addressing household chores can benefit from the sentiment that precedes you. Sending love ahea! d to everyone you will meet and everything you will do can ensure that your day is suffused with grace. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have difficulty sending love to those situations and individuals you deem particularly frustrating, consider that the warmth and tenderness you project can change your life for the better. Each morning, in sending this love, you will exercise your power to control the ambiance of your existence and to color your day with positivity. &lt;/div&gt;

Just because an idea or way of doing things is popular doesn’t mean it’s right for everyone. However, part of the way that something becomes popular is that many of us don’t take the time to determine what’s right for us; we simply do what most of the people we know are doing. In this way, our decisions about life are made by default, which means they aren’t what we call conscious decisions. There may be many other options available, but we don’t always take the time to explore them. This may be the result of feeling overwhelmed or pressured by family, peers, and humanity at large, to do things their way, the way things have always been done. Regardless of the cause, it is important that, as often as we can, we decide for ourselves what to do with our lives rather than just drift along on the current of popular opinion. 

It is not always easy to make decisions that go against the grain. Many people feel threatened when those close to them make choices divergent from the ones they are making. Parents and grandparents may be confused and defensive when we choose to raise our children differently from the way they raised us. Friends may feel abandoned if we decide to change our habits or behavior. Meanwhile, on our side of the fence, it’s easy to feel frustrated and defensive when we feel unsupported and misunderstood simply because we are thinking for ourselves. It can be exhausting to have to explain and re-explain our points of view and our reasons. 

This is where gentleness, openness, and tolerance come into play. It helps if we are calmly persistent, consistent, and clear as we communicate to those around us why we are making the choices we are making. At the same time, we have the right to say that we are tired of talking about it and simply need our choices to be respected. Our lives belong to us and so do our decisions. Those who truly love us will stand by us and support our choices, never mind what’s popular. &lt;/div&gt;

Practically the whole world strongly experienced the frequency increase associated with the beginning of the Ninth wave (Universal Underworld, Mar 9th, 2011) as this manifested in the earthquake in Japan and the ensuing events. But what is this Ninth wave about? It is easy to see the "chaos" and "catastrophes," but maybe not so easy to see the overall direction of the process that it carries. I have previously only described the direction of the Ninth wave in very general terms saying that it is about unity consciousness, but exactly what is unity consciousness and how will this manifest through this wave?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Just like Simon Cowell said it's beautiful to meet a new star. Chris Rene, I thank GOD for blessing you with a &amp;nbsp;colorful life filled with all kinds of&amp;nbsp;experiences good or bad. &amp;nbsp;But what I can say they brought you to where you are today. &amp;nbsp;Be grateful for them as you are now shining bright. &amp;nbsp;Through your music you will passionately express your heart, your LOVE and journey with the world. &amp;nbsp;Blessing to you my friend, it's good to meet you, Cheers.&lt;/div&gt;

How exciting to have the opportunity to receive new healing&amp;nbsp;practices to increase mitochondria up by 2500%. &amp;nbsp;Wow, and I thought 1300% was amazing. &amp;nbsp;Looking forward to share this with others who will come to the new Conscious Living Community Center in Los Angeles, OPENING Spring 2012. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Like us, the sea is ever-changing. And, like us, the earth’s vast oceans appear at a distance to be stable and homogeneous. But beneath the mask of solidity that both we and the sea wear, there lies unpredictability, sensitivity, and power. There is much we can learn from the ocean, representative as it is of our inner landscapes. The rough sounds of the sea’s waves are spiritually soothing, and its salt can purify our physical selves. Yet not everyone has the luxury of living by the shore or even visiting the coastlines where water and land meet. The ocean, however, exists in our conscious minds, put there by images we have seen and descriptions we have read. Wherever we are, we can access that mental image and use it as the starting point from which we can help to heal our emotions by meditating on the sea.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;To begin, gather together any ocean artifacts you may have on hand. Seashells, a vial of sand, beach glass, stones rubbed smooth by the pounding surf, or a recording of ocean sounds can help you slip more deeply into this meditation, but they are not necessary. Sit quietly and visualize the ocean in your mind’s eye. Allow all of your senses to participate in your mental journey. Feel the tiny grains of sand beneath your feet and the cool spray of mist; hear the sea’s rhythmic roar as the waves meet the beach and retreat; smell the tang of salt in the air. Watch the sun’s rays play over the ocean’s surface, creating shifting spots of teal, cerulean, cobalt, and green. Don’t be surprised if you see dolphins or whales frolicking in the waves—they are there to assist you. Spend a few minutes drinking in the ocean’s beauty and appreciating its vast splendor.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you are fully engaged with the setting before you, visualize yourself sitting on the beach, facing the ocean, and watching the waves advance and retreat. As each new wave of seawater approaches, imagine it carrying healing energy toward you. The magnificent ocean in your thoughts is sending you light and love while the sun supports your healing efforts and Mother Earth grounds you in the moment so healing can occur. When you feel you are finished, grant the ocean your earnest gratitude for the aid it has given you. Thank the sun, the sand, and any other elements of your visualization that offered you guidance. Perform this meditation daily or monthly in order to rid yourself of negativity and reestablish emotional equilibrium. Just as the ocean’s tides sweep the shores free of detritus, restoring balance, so can the waves in our mind’s eye cleanse our souls of what no longer serves us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you Daily Om.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God said:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The threads of your life are coming together. Your heart is on the line. No longer can you portray yourself as you may have portrayed yourself in the past. You are coming to the plate. You are at bat. You cannot get away with what you once thought you got away with. Now you swing, and the ball is thrown&lt;br /&gt;back to you quickly and becomes a hot potato.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You never did get away with anything. You paid your price. You always did. It may have been an IOU. Your IOU always got picked up somewhere somehow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Others may also have paid a price for your misdemeanors. They may have been innocent bystanders who happened to be in front of you. That is how it is. One who offends is a bystander. Most likely, you offended yourself. You offended yourself because you approve too little of yourself or not at all really. And so you have to be bolstered. How dare someone not value you enough to help you forget your disavowal of yourself?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You want utter approval from others to make up for your appraisal of yourself. You have to have it. If you don't have it, you are desolate. If you loved yourself, you would never take the offense you take now. Whenever you take offense, you yourself have taken it. You whisked it out of the ether. The&lt;br /&gt;expression is that you took offense. You took it as one might shoplift. You take offense on your own say-so. You pay yourself back for taking offense. You don't let yourself get away with it. You slap your own hand. You punish yourself with anger and grudge. You still are convinced that someone has something to do with you. You have something to do with you. I would say that you have punished yourself enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, I mean your self-inflicted punishment is not necessary. It may seem necessary to you because your ego resents someone else's ego. Only on the level of ego do you take the offense you have taken. Now the day of offense is at an end. It is not love to take offense. It is not love to let hurt and anger and bitterness become your masters. Now is when you learn to love, not as a sacrifice, but as the culmination of yourself, the rising of yourself, from ego to love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No longer do you take offense. It is no longer possible for you to take offense. This is not quite the same as forgiving. It is pre-forgiving. It is not even that. It is seeing truth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truly, the person before you is yourself, and I mean that on the relative level as well. The person whom you take offense at is reflecting you. The person may be a mirror image of you. If the person is so greedy, so are you greedy. If the person before you is so needy, so are you needy. If the person before you always thinks of himself first, so is it with you. If the person before you wants to be first in line at your seeming expense, so do you want to be first in line regardless of expense to another. You will even pay the price&lt;br /&gt;of anger and hurt and blame someone else for extracting them from you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not giving you instruction, beloveds. I am telling you that you are rising to a new level. This new level of rising consciousness allows you to be generous. No longer do you have to be first in line. You are becoming content to usher others to the front and be happy about it. You are not losing your integrity. You are growing in love and so you simply naturally give more love. The lesson may have been hard, and yet now the loving is easy. It is where you are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gloria Wendroff, Godwriter&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Godwriting™ International Society of Heaven&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

There are the noises from the outside world that we cannot control, and there are the noises we allow into our lives. These noises, from seemingly innocuous sources like the television and radio, can actually help us avoid dealing with uncomfortable thoughts and emotions. However, using noise as a distraction hurts more than it helps because you are numbing yourself to what may be internally bubbling up to the surface for you to look at and heal. Distracting yourself with talk-radio, television, or other background noises can also prevent you from finding closure to issues that haunt you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Noise as a distraction can affect us in many ways. It can help you stay numb to emotions that you don’t want to feel, allow you to avoid dealing with problems, distract you from having to think, and make it easier for you to forget reality. Drowning out the thoughts and emotions you find uncomfortable or overwhelming can complicate your issues because it allows them to fester. By tuning out noise and relishing silence, you create the space to experience and express what you are hiding. It is only then that self-exploration can begin in earnest and you can stare down frightening issues. In silence, it becomes easier to let your strongest feelings come forth, deal with them, and find new ways of resolving your problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you go within without the veil of noise to shield you from yourself, you’ll be able to figure out what you need to heal. Embracing silence and introspection allows you to work through your thoughts and emotions and transmute them. Free of the need for noise, you can accept your pain, anger, and frustration as they come up and turn them into opportunities to evolve.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

This video is an inspiration for all to awaken to the change that is happening, you choose to be here and it is time to look within your heart and experience the truth. &amp;nbsp;It's time to shed the fear, anger, hate, greed and suffering. &amp;nbsp;It is time to fully experience LOVE, that which is YOU infinitely. &amp;nbsp;Stop and go within and listen to your heart and meditate for peace and love to&amp;nbsp;permeate&amp;nbsp;throughout this entire world and universe. &amp;nbsp;Collectively we can be the change we want to experience. &amp;nbsp;Make the time to meditate in groups on the first Sunday of every month, this is a start; maybe you will take the time to meditate daily like I do. &amp;nbsp;It's a challenge that I know you are up for. &amp;nbsp;Stand tall and proud as WE are ALL ONE. &amp;nbsp;UNITED WE STAND AND DIVIDED WE FALL . . . &amp;nbsp;.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"&gt;The Nights of Shivaratri 2011 with Sri Swami Vishwananda will be remembered as most extraordinary and auspicious. Most importantly, it will forever be associated with the rarest birth of two Hiranyagarbha Golden Lingams on 2nd and 3rd of March.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Hiranya" means imperishable substance or golden and "garbha" means womb, egg or the interior of anything. Thus, the Hiranyagarbha Lingam is known as the Golden Egg, it is the most important of all Lingams and its appearance for our physical eyes is extremely rare. And even rarer - in fact there is no known account of such an occurrence in recent history -- is the parallel appearance of two Hiranyagarbha Lingams.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Swami Vishwananda: "They are the two eyes of Narayana. They symbolize the unity of the force of the two hemispheres of the world and the Universe, which is governed by these two cosmic energies, which is the female and the male energy, which makes everything come into manifestation. The two Lingams symbolize these two cosmic energies: Shiva-Shakti, Lakshmi-Narayan, Brahma-Vishnu. Lord Narayana shows that all is present within Himself. The Creator, the Protector and the Destroyer is only Him. The big 'I' is only Him. There is no 'You'... nothing exists other than Himself."&lt;br /&gt;
Swami explains that only because of our pride and ego we think we are the doers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Identify yourself with the higher spirit of the cosmic energy which is inside of you. This will help you to burn all your negative karma, pride and ego which is inside of you, this will rise you toward your true Self. Do the Manas Puja ("worship in the mind") inside your mind. Let your mind transcend the duality of what you see. Let it merge into the sublime and know that it is only Him who exists inside of you. So do it through the mind. It is very difficult to control, but not impossible to control. When you sit for meditation, see the Lingam inside and outside of you."&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The presence of the Hiranyagarbha Lingam let alone the presence of two is a great blessing not only for those who are present in that moment of birth, but also for the whole world, a gesture from the Cosmic Father, who always takes care of His children.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Hiranyagarbha Lingam, according to the Srimad Bhagavatam, is the primordial creation of God, the Will of God itself; all in all the Soul of Narayana.&lt;br /&gt;
"Even if it seems so small like this, it has the whole universe inside of it. Even if it seems small in the outside, we are all inside of it."&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shivaratri is about forgetting about your mind. Many of devotees who came to Shree Peetha Nilaya, Springen Germany, on 3-4 March 2011 to celebrate the Great Night of Shivaratri, spent the entire night chanting the Divine Name to awaken the Divine Consciousness and Love inside of Themselves, to awaken Lord Shiva and Lord Pandurenga. Many prayed throughout the whole night, a night that offers the grace of God like no other night during the whole year.&lt;br /&gt;
"The humility of the Heart is what will make things happen. He will reveal himself to you. Forget about the mind."&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OM NAMAH SHIVAYA, PANDURANGA HARI HARI PANDURANGA HARI HARI PANDURANGA VITTALA VITTALA PANDURANGAAAA!!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhakti Marga (meaning path of devotion to God) stands for a family of individuals from all over the world who dedicate their life foremost to God. The main center is located in Springen, Germany.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sri Swami Vishwananda is a spiritual master from the island of Mauritius and founder of Bhakti Marga.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; border-collapse: collapse; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 22px;"&gt;In the Vedic tradition, Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva represent intellect, wealth and Enlightenment respectively. There is a story that dates back to thousands of years in the past. Once there came an argument between Brahma and Vishnu that who is superior. To resolve that both Brahma and Vishnu went to Shiva. Shiva cut a deal that whoever sees the head or feet ie., beginning or end of Shiva, is superior. Vishnu went in search of the feet whereas Brahma went towards the head. Both of them tried for a long time and Vishnu gave up and surrendered. But Brahma lied that he saw the head of Shiva and got cursed. This signifies the futility of intellect, limitedness of wealth and the greatness of Enlightenment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mahashiva Ratri is the night when first Shiva landed on to the planet Earth as light shaft without beginning and end. The light shaft is nothing but an expression of the Kundalini awakening. This light shaft is represented as Linga. It is on this night of Mahashivaratri the energy levels of planet Earth itself aligns such that the Kundalini get awakened very easily.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And here is a rare opportunity to experience the awakening of your Kundalini energy in the presence of a rare living incarnation. Come join us on this MahashivaRatri March 2nd of 2011 to give you yourself a spiritual feast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The greatest highlight of this day this year is Swamiji initates all in the new meditation technique called eN-Meditation for free. And also experience Shiva’s consciousness and energy through the Rudra Homa and by performing abhisheka to Shiva yourselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Come get Enlightened this maha shiva ratri&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Repeat 'Om Namah Shivay', with the feeling that you are bowing to Shiva - your true inner self. Repeat this mantra with respect. The inner self is the form of God in you. So as you say ' Om Namah Shivay' i.e. "I bow to Shiva'; you are actually bowing to God - The great almighty. The repetition of the name of God is equivalent to be merged in his very being.&amp;nbsp; When you repeat God's name in your mouth, in one way, you experience the&amp;nbsp;God itself. Just repeat this mantra with faith and it's powerful phonetic vibrations will start doing miracle for you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1520051221150839501-5990126260164645895?l=sambranco.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~4/uD9JxaRxwc8" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://nithyananda.org/mahashivarathri-2011" title="Nithyananda: Shiva message to the world Release of NEW MEDITATION!" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://sambranco.blogspot.com/feeds/5990126260164645895/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1520051221150839501&amp;postID=5990126260164645895&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/5990126260164645895?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1520051221150839501/posts/default/5990126260164645895?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EmpowerAndHealYourself/~3/uD9JxaRxwc8/nithyananda-shiva-message-to-world.html" title="Nithyananda: Shiva message to the world Release of NEW MEDITATION!" /><author><name>Empower and Heal Yourself</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03851999490194243321</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="21" height="32" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Lms5ZbrlYJQ/SUgeKQEZfGI/AAAAAAAAALE/9bWxQeCSD4Y/S220/sam.jpg" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://img.youtube.com/vi/Pzb1nApWPHw/default.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://sambranco.blogspot.com/2011/03/nithyananda-shiva-message-to-world.html</feedburner:origLink></entry></feed>
