The Power of Now A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 00:51:00 +0000

It's no wonder that The Power of Now has sold over 2 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 30 foreign languages. Much more than simple principles and platitudes, the book takes readers on an inspiring spiritual journey to find their true and deepest self and reach the ultimate in personal growth and spirituality: the discovery of truth and light.

In the first chapter, Tolle introduces readers to enlightenment and its natural enemy, the mind. He awakens readers to their role as a creator of pain and shows them how to have a pain-free identity by living fully in the present. The journey is thrilling, and along the way, the author shows how to connect to the indestructible essence of our Being, "the eternal, ever-present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death." Featuring a new preface by the author, this paperback shows that only after regaining awareness of Being, liberated from Mind and intensely in the Now, is there Enlightenment.

Jonathan Goldman - Medicine Buddha

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 20:42:00 +0000

“ The Tibetan Buddhist meditative technique called Medicine Buddha practice invokes healing through visualization and mantra. The two long tracks on Jonathan Goldman's MEDICINE BUDDHA serve as powerful aids to this ancient method of physical and spiritual healing.

The first selection, "Medicine Buddha Suite," layers chant, deep overtone singing and singing bowls. After about 10 minutes of this very grounding chorale, a danceable middle section emerges, offering a novel melding of Tibetan chant with Native American percussion and flute, before going back to the relatively sedate sound of the beginning. The second selection, "Heart of Wisdom Sutra" pairs a classic Buddhist mantra with celestial vocal harmonies. Throughout the 60-plus minutes of music on this album, Goldman both honors the traditional sounds of Tibetan chant and follows his muse to unexpected places. The result is a deeply felt and embracing soundtrack for meditation, ritual, or movement. ”

Igor Ledochowski - Power of Conversational Hypnosis

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 17:31:00 +0000

Free download links below

The book starts off by getting you to know the unlimited potential that your brain holds and goes on to teach you how to tap this potential to get what you want, by hypnotizing people through your speech. The possibilities as to what you can do with this book by your side are endless. You could succeed like anything in your career. You could be in a relationship with that special someone that you’ve always wanted to be with.

Conversational Hypnosis is a way to make people do the things that you want them to do, but in an ethical and realistic way. For instance, you can’t make someone do something that is inherently out of their character, which means that you aren’t being unethical by forcing people to do things they wouldn’t normally do. All you are doing is suggesting the things that they want to do anyway ,and helping them to realize that those things are the best choices for them. With Conversational Hypnosis , you will be able to take advantage of the fact that most people really want to help out most people – and allow the people that you meet to help you out.Conversational Hypnosis can put you in control at home, at work, and anywhere else that you’d like to be.

By usingConversational Hypnosis , you will be able to make people understand the best path for them to choose, and through that path, you can benefit from what they have chosen.

You will discover...

* The entire Conversational Hypnosis Protocol, Igor's most closely held and powerful teachings.
* The powerful “hypnotic triple ” command that SWAT teams use to force compliance ... even in a fire-fight with hardened criminals.
* How an instant rapport technique will get even strangers to open up to you ... reveal their inner longings .... and give you all the clues you need to persuade them to do as you say.
* The conversational way to get a sales prospect to imagine the intense feelings of owning what you are selling, so they naturally feel compelled to buy right now! You can help them intensify the feelings so strongly that all objections simply melt away.
* The easiest way to join the elite group of “hypnotic persuasion experts ” by using their secret patterns for influence .... (it's easier than you think).
* Create an instant trigger to unleash your subjects deepest desires.... and how to point them in your direction... (Igor's innovative techniques are more refined and more powerful than any other).
* A simple technique that creates amnesia for any objection your subject may have to your suggestions... they simply forget to remember what it was that might have stopped them from following your suggestions.
* What it means when your subject “talks with their hands ” and how to use their gestures to literally get inside their head.
* How to know if a subject is “talking to themselves ” with internal dialogue ... and how to join that dialogue so that your voice seems like it comes from inside their own mind!

The complete Feng Shui Collection 7 most practical and popular e-book

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 19:05:00 +0000

Feng Shui is an ancient art of placement to bring balance and harmony to a physical space. The loose translation of Feng Shui is wind and water. Feng represents the wind that carries the chi (energy) throughout a space. Shui is the water that meanders underneath the earth transporting chi.

This package included 7most practical and popular e-book for Feng Shui:

1. A Quick Guide to the Five Elements

2. Feng Shui Secrets Revealed

3. How To Use Feng Shui To Improve Business & Office

4. How To Use Feng Shui To Attract Love

5. How To Use Feng Shui To Attract Wealth

6. The Top 10 Feng Shui Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

7. Wind Chimes & Water Fountains: Favorite Feng Shui Objects and How to Use Them

Chi is the invisible energy that surrounds us. To most people this energy cannot be felt, seen, or heard but it influences all living things. Chi should flow effortlessly around physical structures to bring balance and harmony. Feng Shui was invented, thousands of years ago to ensure the flow of chi would bring positive vibrations not negative ones that could create discord and chaos.

Feng Shui has been around for thousand of years but only in the past twenty years has North America really taken notice of this ancient art of placement. Professor Lin Yun pioneered the Feng Shui movement in the West. He teaches Black Hat Sect Feng Shui.

Its main objective is to align your physical space with your personal life goals. Our homes are a reflection of our life. Feng Shui???????s purpose is to change the physicalspace, to allow the individual to reach their goals.

The basic premise of NLP is that the words we use reflect an inner, subconscious perception of our problems. If these words and perceptions are inaccurate, as long as we continue to use them and to think of them, the underlying problem will persist. In other words, our attitudes are, in a sense, a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Contains More than 100 books . This books are based on Nlp. It also teachs Us how can we improve, mind mapping skills,Hypnosis,Nlp strategies and so on..

Ultra Meditation: 5-Level Transcendence System

The 5-Level Ultra Meditation System For Transcendence...Peak Experiences & Discovering Your Place in the Universe.
I’VE SPENT THE LAST 20 YEARS searching for tools that could shift the energies of consciousness, and unfold a state of enlightened awareness. What I’m about to reveal may be the simplest, most powerful technology for unleashing the hidden powers of the human mind.

A VACATION IN 28 MINUTES
Listen: I did everything in the 70’s and 80’s. From retreats to flotation tanks, and brain tune-up machines. But none of it prepared me for the power of the Brain Supercharger® technology. As I plugged it into my stereo player, I kept thinking, "it’s just a recording." Then I put on my headphones, flipped the switch, and woosh...I was immediately transported into another time and place. My body became extremely relaxed. My arms and legs felt numb. I began to experience new things. I started having long conversations with a voice inside my head, experiencing vivid memories, and a flood of creative ideas.

It seemed as if my mind and body were in two separate places. Words can hardly describe the experience but it was like taking a two-week vacation in 28 minutes. Perhaps one of the great untold discoveries of our time is the knowledge of how to manipulate the energies of consciousness—to unleash the true potential of a human being. For thousands of years the only way to achieve a state of enlightened awareness was through meditation. That’s where this new audio technology steps in. And the results are confirming what the ancient masters have intuitively known for centuries. And that is this...

Sitting in a cave chanting or staring at a candle focusing your consciousness —driving it inward—shifts the energy in your brain, eventually unfolding a state of enlightened awareness.

ULTRA MEDITATION—MEDITATES YOU!
The difficulty with traditional meditation practices is it takes years of concentrated effort to train your brain to redirect its energy into optimal patterns. But there is a way to access higher states of consciousness, without being an expert in meditation. A way to drive your brain into an altered state—automatically, at the push of a button. If you’re skeptical, I understand. However, I wouldn’t ask you to make this leap of faith without proving it to yourself and basing your answers on actual personal experience. That’s why the Ultra Meditation™ 5-Level Transcendence System was developed.

ZEN MONKS & FIREWALKING YOGIS
Experienced meditators, such as yogis and mystics, spend a majority of their life learning to control these physiological responses. After years of practice, they develop an ability to tap into the unconscious portions of their minds and unleash creative and mental powers that cannot be accessed in their normal waking state. We’ve all heard and read about firewalking yogis who can walk across a bed of burning coals at temperatures that should have reduced their feet to smoldering stumps, yet at the end of their walk, they suffer not so much as a blister. For those new to meditation it is very difficult to grasp the concept that our so-called "normal" waking state is neither the highest, nor the most effective state of which the human mind is capable. That in fact, there are other states of much greater awareness where one is able to enter into for brief periods of time, and then return—enriched and enlivened.

It is widely known by science that only a small part of our total mental activity takes place in the conscious part of the mind. Science has no idea what really goes on in the vast portion of unconscious. This is unknown territory. What we do know is that those who make direct contact with their unconscious mind through meditation, find incredible personal insight and are able to remove self-limiting blocks that prevent them from achieving their goals and finding happiness in life. This is why people spend years studying meditation practices.

P.S. This is not new age music, guided imagery, or hypnosis. What you're about to experience is unlike anything you've ever experienced before.

Palmistry-Destiny is in your hands

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 12:16:00 +0000

Palmistry is the art and science of self-discovery. Fundamental to Vedic palmistry is that as we continuously change and evolve, so do the hand lines on our palms.

When reading your own palm, it is important to consider both hands in turn.

Right-handed people
Your right hand describes the events in your life while your left hand denotes the things you wish for in your life.

Left-handed people
Your left hand describes the events in your life while your right hand denotes the things you wish for in your life.

THE FINGERS
The Jupiter Finger
This is the index finger and shows how much pride you have, and the strength of your need for power. In a normal hand the Jupiter Finger generally reaches the middle of the top phalange of the Saturn Finger ['4' in the diagram].

A shorter than normal Jupiter Finger: you prefer to follow rather than lead. You are shy, reserved and lacking in self-esteem. You may shrink from challenges and responsibility.

A longer than normal Jupiter finger: you are proud and ambitious - maybe even arrogant - and you have a strong desire for power.
A significant gap between the Jupiter and Saturn Fingers: You are a good manager and are able to take decisions and use your initiative. you may be self-employed.

The Jupiter Finger juts out away from the Saturn Finger: You can be a bit of an exhibitionist and your like to be the centre of attention.

The Jupiter Finger curves towards the Saturn Finger: You are acquisitive and somewhat cautious when dealing with others.

A straight Jupiter Finger: You have keen powers of observation - both figuratively and literally - people with straight Jupiter Fingers rarely need to wear glasses!
Wearing a ring on the Jupiter Finger: You want to boost your confidence. You want to appear powerful, although you may feel the opposite.

The Saturn Finger
This is the middle finger and it indicates your general character and your sense of responsibility ['3' in the diagram]. In a normal hand the Saturn Finger measures about three-quarters the length of the palm.

A normal length Saturn Finger: You have a balanced nature and are able to shoulder your fair share of responsibility without feeling cowed or becoming careless.

A shorter than normal Saturn Finger: You make impulsive decisions and tend to avoid taking responsibility.

A very short Saturn Finger: You may be unable to make commitments that involve marriage, owning property and the like.

A longer than normal Saturn Finger: You have a strong character, are reliable and dependable, and you take life seriously. Successful business people, particularly those who handle other people's money, generally have long Saturn Fingers.

A longer than normal Saturn Finger which is also chunky: You tend to make heavy weather of life and may suffer from depression at times.

A significant gap between the Saturn and Jupiter Fingers: You are a good manager and are able to take decisions and use your initiative. you may be self-employed.

The Saturn Finger leans towards the Jupiter (index) Finger: You are an extrovert and you enjoy spending most of your time with other people.

The Saturn Finger leans towards the Apollo (ring) Finger: You are an introvert and tend to need plenty of time to yourself.

A straight Saturn Finger: You can balance your need to be sociable with your need to be alone.

Wearing a ring on the Saturn Finger: You want to boost your sense of security. You may have a troubled family background, an important relationship may have ended or your life may be going through changes.

The Apollo Finger
This is the ring finger and is associated with artistic and creative talents ['2' in the diagram]. It is also connected with the emotions and with the often unconscious way in which we communicate with others.

Apollo finger is shorter than the Jupiter and Saturn fingers (this is normally the case): you are emotionally well balanced.

Longer than normal Apollo Finger: you experience powerful emotions and have no trouble in expressing them. You possibly have a very strong sex drive. You are creative and good at communicating with others, finding it easy to express your ideas and opinions.

Shorter than normal Apollo Finger: You possibly have trouble in adjusting to other people's emotional demands, and may find it hard to express your own emotions. You tend to lack energy and may not be overly creative.

Apollo (ring) and Saturn (middle) Fingers bend towards each other: You have a tendency to sacrifice pleasure for duty. You may have had to put your creative desires second to the need to make money, or perhaps you spend a lot of your time looking after loved ones and have little time or energy left for yourself.

Wearing several rings or a very striking ring on the Apollo Finger (ignore a wedding ring unless you have never been married or are wearing more than one): You may be trying to compensate for lack of creativity or love in your life.

The Mercury Finger
This is the little finger and it rules communication, so the longer it is, the better you are able to communicate with others ['1' in the diagram]. In a normal hand the Mercury Finger reaches the joint of the top phalange on the Apollo Finger.

A shorter than normal Mercury Finger: You have problems communicating. You may behave in a childlike or immature way at times. You may find it difficult to form close emotional relationships.

A longer than normal Mercury Finger: You communicate well and you have considerable intelligence. You are sociable and get on well with others. You may also be lively and talkative.

A significant gap between the Mercury and Apollo (ring) Fingers when the fingers are closed: You find it difficult to communicate with others on an emotional level. Even if your Mercury finger is long (indicating that you are lively and chatty), you will find it hard to draw closer to others.

The Mercury Finger appears to be separate from the rest of the hand: You are unconventional, original and independent. You may find it difficult to reveal some aspects of your life to other people.

The Mercury Finger leans towards the Apollo (ring) Finger: You are shrewd, astute and possibly successful in business.

A naturally curved Mercury Finger (ignore a finger twisted through accident or arthritis): You sometimes don't mind bending the truth when it suits you.

A straight Mercury Finger: You are very honest.
Wearing a ring on the Mercury Finger: You desire sexual independence.

THE MOUNTS
The Mount of Venus
The Mount of Venus sits at the base of the thumb and is particularly noticeable. It indicates your level of vitality, sensuality and appreciation of beauty.

A high, elastic and well develop Mount of Venus: You are outgoing and have a strong sex drive, with plenty of physical energy. You probably have artistic talent and may even make a career in the arts. If your Mount of Venus is also extremely large, then these tendencies are proportionately magnified.

An under-developed or flabby Mount of Venus: You tend to lack vitality and may suffer from poor health. You sex drive at times may be low and you may also have difficulty expressing emotions in some situations.

The Mount of Luna
This Mount is found at the outer edge of the hand, below the Mount of Mars and just above the wrist ['11' in the diagram].

A very plump Mount of Luna: You are dreamy and idealistic, and tend to live in a little world of your own. You may have a tenuous grasp of reality, which could lead to half-truths.

A well-developed Mount of Luna: You are imaginative, artistic and cultured. You may experience ESP.

A flat, almost non-existent Mount of Luna: You are very realistic in your thoughts.

The Mount of Mars
There are two Mounts of Mars ['10' in the diagram]. The one below the Mount of Mercury denotes your moral courage. The one below the Mount of Jupiter indicates your physical courage.

1) The Mount of Mars below the Mount of Mercury

Well-developed: you have spiritual strength, willpower and the ability to follow your beliefs in the face of opposition.

Over-developed: You tend to doggedly and blindly persist in your beliefs, as if you are on a mission to prove something. This can end in disaster and disappointment.

2) The Mount of Mars below the Mount of Jupiter

Well-developed: You are brave and fearless. You may be prepared to fight physically for what you believe in - many people in the armed forces have this Mount.

Very large: You can be dogmatic, foolhardy and impulsive, rushing in where angels fear to tread.

Very small or non-existent: You tend to lack physical courage.

The Mount of Jupiter
This Mount is found at the base of the index finger ['9' in the diagram]. You may have to cup your hand to see it.

A well-shaped Mount of Jupiter: You are ambitious and desire success. However if the Mount is over-large these desires are taken to extremes.

A well-shaped Mount of Jupiter coupled with a strong Life Line: Your ambitions will be realised.

A well-shaped Mount of Jupiter coupled with a weak Life Line: You may never achieve your ambitions and yet you will feel proud and satisfied.

An over-developed Mount of Jupiter, coupled with a large Mount of Mars beneath it: You may sometimes come across as a bit of a bully.

A small Mount of Jupiter: You may lack self-confidence.

The Mount of Saturn
This Mount is found at the base of the middle finger. You may need to cup your hand to see it. Sometimes this Mount appears between the middle and index fingers, in which case you need to read about both the Mount of Saturn and the Mount of Jupiter.

A non-existent Mount of Saturn: You tend to take a frivolous view of life.
Mount of Saturn is merged with the Mount of Jupiter (between middle and index fingers): You have a practical nature which is blended with a certain amount of ambition.

Mount of Saturn is merged with the Mount of Apollo (between middle and ring fingers): You have a practical nature which is blended with a certain amount of artistic talent.

A very pronounced Mount of Saturn: You are very studious and serious. You may even be a little bit pessimistic or fatalistic.

A well-shaped Mount of Saturn: You enjoy solitude and are a hard worker.

The Mount of Apollo
This Mount, at the base of the ring finger is an excellent one to have ['7' in the diagram]. You may have to cup your hand to see it.

Well shaped Mount of Apollo: You have creative talents and a love of beauty. You are generous and expansive.

A very large Mount of Apollo: You enjoy being in the limelight and may even be a bit of a show-off.

A small or non-existent Mount of Apollo: You have little artistic ability.

The Mount of Mercury
Sitting below the little finger, the Mount of Mercury ['6' in the diagram] is always considered in relation to the rest of the hand (especially the Head Line), because it amplifies existing tendencies.

If the rest of the hand is positive with a long and clearly marked Head Line: You are quick-thinking, lively and witty.

If the rest of the hand is negative with a weak or badly marked Head Line: You can be rather sarcastic. Your quick wits can lead to sharp practice or crime, lack of concentration and an over-excitable nature.

THE PHALANGES
The Logic
The Logic is the lower phalange of the thumb ['14' in the diagram]. As the name suggests it denotes your logic! The top phalange of the thumb denotes your will.

Logic longer than Will: You are logical and you reason things out before you take action.

Exceptionally long Logic: You probably do a lot of thinking but rarely take any action at all.

Logic thinner in the middle (it has a 'waist'): You tend to use tact and diplomacy when trying to get your own way.

The waist of the Logic is very pronounced: You tend to be logical to a fault, are easily influenced by other people's arguments and may endlessly analyse your own actions.

The Will
The Will is the top phalange of the thumb ['15' in the diagram]. As the name suggests it denotes your will! The lower phalange of the thumb denotes your logic.

The Will longer than Logic: Your head rules your heart - you're impulsive and want to get your own way, no matter what. If the Will is also bulbous broad, you may resort to force to get what you want.

The Will is flat and thin when viewed from the side: You are highly strung and sensitive.

The Will is rounded and fleshy when viewed from the side: You can be blunt and uncomfortably forthright at times.

The Will is abnormally large when viewed from the side: You can sometimes be obstinate and forceful.

The Percussion
This is the term given to the shape of the outer side of the palm ['5' in the diagram], and it is visible whether the fingers are open or closed.

The Percussion is curved: You are artistic. You may use your own talents or simply appreciate others' creative gifts.

The Percussion is straight: You don't have artistic talents, and are probably extremely practical instead.

The Top Phalanges
The fingers are divided into three sections: the Phalanges. The Top Phalanges are the final section of the finger tips.

Droplets or raised pads of flesh on the Top Phalanges: You have artistic talent and a strong sensitivity towards your surroundings. You feel things very deeply and may even be psychic.

Firm fingertips: You are good at business and don't like being told what to do. You have a no-nonsense approach to life.

Long nails: You are a bit of a dreamer. You are artistic and imaginative. You may shy away from unpleasant facts.

Short nails: You tend to be sceptical, logical and critical of others and you have a short temper.

Broader than long nails: You can be argumentative and you worry a lot. You are easily offended.

Very narrow nails: You can be narrow-minded and dogmatic at times.
Bitten nails: You are highly strung and nervy.

Manicured nails: You obviously set great store by your appearance.

White flecks on the nails: These indicate shocks to your nervous system - the area of life ruled by the finger in question will tell you what these shocks entailed.

Visible half-moons at the base of the nails: You breathe properly (most people take shallow breaths) and you take lots of exercise.

Very large half-moons: May indicate heart trouble - best to get things checked out.

Invisible half-moons: You have problems breathing and are not that keen on exercise.

The Middle Phalanges
The fingers are divided into three sections: the Phalanges. The Middle Phalanges are the sections between the main finger joints and finger tips, they indicate how your mind works. When considering the Middle Phalanges, ignore any bumps or deformed joints caused by arthritis, accidents or bone complaints.

Smooth fingers and no noticeable bumps at the joints: You tend to rely on your instincts when making decisions. You tend to jump to conclusions, which may or may not be accurate, without reasoning things out.Longer fingers help to offset this.

Shorter fingers mean you are particularly impulsive, especially if you also have a weak Head Line.

Knotty joints: You are philosophical and enjoy puzzling out the whys and wherefores of meaty problems. You reason and analyse, and you always pay close attention to detail.

The Base Phalanges
The fingers are divided into three sections: the Phalanges. The Base Phalanges are the sections between the knuckles and finger joints.

Puffy and fleshy Base Phalanges: You are sensual and enjoy material comforts and luxuries. You may be acquisitive or materialistic and not overly generous at times.

Thin Base Phalanges: You are intellectual and may even seem slightly detached from everyday worries, with your mind dwelling on matters you find more important.

Notable gaps present between the bases of each finger: You are very generous and may spend virtually every penny you earn.

THE LINES
The Fate Line
Also called the Line of Saturn, the Fate Line runs up the palm from the hand to the Saturn Finger, between the index and ring fingers ['Z' in the diagram]. This line denotes your career, success or failure and the people who influence your life - for good or evil.
» Fate Line starts on the Mount of Luna: you were independent and knew what you wanted to do in life from an early age - and you are probably involved in something that uses your creative ability. You may even feature in the public eye.

» Fate Line starts at the wrist in the middle of your hand: you knew what you wanted to achieve from an early age.

» Fate Line starts within the Life line, on the Mount of Venus: you tend to do what your family expects of you. You possibly felt duty-bound to go into a family business or follow a career your parents chose for you.

» Lack of, or a faint feathery, Fate Line: You dislike routine and don't plan much in your life, preferring to let things take their course. You may fritter your energies on projects that don't really amount to much

» A strong Fate Line: You are reliable and like a regular routine. You have a certain amount of drive and ambition. You are able (either consciously or subconsciously) to steer your life in roughly the direction you want it to go.

» A broken Fate Line: You will have several changes of direction in your life.

» Small lines crossing the Fate Line: These indicate obstacles or interruptions in your career.

» Fate Line on your your writing hand but not on the other hand: You tend to direct a lot of conscious effort into achieving your desires.

» A Fate Line on your non-writing hand but not on your writing hand: You probably have wonderful dreams of success which you never really put into action.

The Heart Line
This line begins under the Mount of Mercury and ends somewhere between the Mounts of Jupiter and Saturn ['Y' in the diagram]. This line denotes the emotional and physical state of your heart. The Heart Line is usually one of the easiest lines to read.

» A strong Heart Line, with few breaks or interruptions: Take heart! Your heart is in a good physical condition. However, you may be very wrapped up in yourself and can tend to be a little selfish at times.

» A faint Heart Line: You have little empathy with others and you may suffer with a physical heart condition. Best to get things checked out.

» Heart Line which includes some chain-links: Your emotional energies tend to go round in circles which never result to much. You may have experienced a string of broken relationships because you tend to fritter away your emotions and may be reluctant to commit yourself to one person.

» A straight Heart Line: At times you can be a little insensitive to others and very direct at expressing your emotional needs.

» Combined Heart and Head Lines: This is known as a Simian line and is fairly rare. Your emotions and powers of reasoning are completely intertwined. You tend to wholeheartedly throw yourself into experiences, sometimes with rather unfortunate results. Because you often cannot take an objective view of your actions, everything is approached with intensity.

» Combined Heart, Head and Life Lines: This is very rare, where these three lines are joined together on the Mount of Mars near the thumb. You can be emotionally ruthless and will sometimes stop at nothing to get what you want from others, as your thoughts, emotions and actions all spring from the same source.

» Abnormally long Heart Line: You are ruled by your emotions, feel things passionately and are prone to jealousy.

The Head Line
This is the line that usually sits between the Heart and Life lines ['X' in the diagram]. It rises on or near the Life Line and runs across the Plain of Mars, before ending at a point somewhere under the Mercury (little) finger. This line indicates the quality of your intellect and reasoning ability.

» A short Head Line: Your reactions are much quicker than usual and you may, at times, make hasty judgements.

» A very short (ending in the middle of the palm) or faint Head Line: You are not very mentally adept and may have difficulty in marshalling your thoughts into any sort of order. You may be easily swayed by others.

» A longer than usual Head Line: You are often lost in thought - you tend to take in so many impressions of the world around you that you need plenty of time to process them all. However, this does mean that you are able to see both sides of an argument.

» A strong, well-defined Head Line: You are mentally very alert and quick. Your common sense knows no bounds - you may, however, be regarded as too rational at times.

» A direct, straight Head Line: You tend to have fixed ideas and a well-balanced mind with a practical. common-sense approach to life. You are always very matter-of-fact and take an objective viewpoint. However, your imagination is a little lacking, so you tend to see life in extremely black and white terms.

» A chained or feathered Head Line: You find it hard to concentrate and think clearly. Islands on the line indicate periods of mental strain.

» A Head Line which ends in a fork: This is often known as the 'writer's fork' - and indicates a born writer. If the fork is pronounced, with one end dipping towards the Mount of Luna (at the start of the wrist), it shows you have the ability to combine practicality with your imagination.

The Life Line
This line usually begins between the thumb and Jupiter (index) finger on the edge of the palm and curves around the Mount of Venus ['W' in the diagram]. It shows the pattern of your life and your strength, health and vitality. Landmarks of life - such as accidents, illnesses and changes of circumstance appear on the Life Line.

» A strong pink Life Line: you enjoy good health and will probably live to a ripe old age. You have plenty of physical energy and stamina.

» A pale faint Life Line: you do not have a great deal of vitality and may suffer through ill health at some point in your life. You may also be highly strung and nervous.

» Your Life Line is curved, sweeps around the Mount of Venus and ends at the wrist: you are very energetic with a natural zest for life. You are warm-hearted, good at communicating with others and are able to survive whatever life throws at you.

» Your Life Line has a very slight curve: you may find it difficult to relate to others emotionally. You can be inhibited, shy and introverted.

» Your Life Line is straight and cuts through the Mount of Venus: at times you can be rather selfish and a little mean-spirited.

» Combined Life and Head Lines: You tend to lack confidence and find decision-making difficult because you are heavily influenced by family ties. The longer the distance for which these two lines are fused together, the more pronounced this tendency is, because the longer the family influence will be. If the two lines quickly move apart, however, you will have established your independence at a young age.

» Combined Life, Head and Heart Lines: This is very rare, where these three lines are joined together on the Mount of Mars near the thumb. You can be emotionally ruthless and will sometimes stop at nothing to get what you want from others, as your thoughts, emotions and actions all spring from the same source.

The Girdle of Venus
Not to be confused with a double Heart Line, the Girdle of Venus ['V' in the diagram] is a curved line that sits high on the palm, above the Heart Line. It normally runs from the Jupiter (index) or Saturn (middle) finger to the Apollo (ring) or Mercury (little) finger. Do not be alarmed if you do not have this Line on your palm - many people don't!

This line indicates a passionate nature. This may be expressed as sexual passion or possibly devotion to a particular interest or vocation. It indicates heightened emotions, especially if the line is strong and deep, and it also denotes sensitivity.

The Plain of Mars
The Plain of Mars sits at the centre of the palm, surrounded by the Mounts ['13' in the diagram]. The best way to examine it is to gently massage it with the ball of your thumb.

» The skin is soft and you can feel bones and ligaments through the skin: You tend to lack self-confidence.

» The skin is firm and elastic: You have plenty of confidence and may even be rather bumptious at times.

» The skin is coarse and the Plain of Mars is very full: You enjoy the sound of your own voice and can appear insensitive to others' feelings.

Color Your Car According to Your Kua

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 22:51:00 +0000

Begin by referring to the table below for your personal kua number. Look for your birth year in the first column, which lists out the birth years for those born after February 3rd. In the second column are the kua numbers for males. The kua numbers for females are in the third column.

NOTE: Those who were born before February 4th should refer to the previous birth year to get their personal kua numbers.

Birth Year	Kua #	Kua #
(after February 4th)	(male)	(female)
1907, 1916, 1925, 1934, 1943, 1952, 1961, 1970, 1979, 1988, 1997, 2006	3	3
1908, 1917, 1926, 1935, 1944, 1953, 1962, 1971, 1980, 1989, 1998, 2007	2	4
1909, 1918, 1927, 1936, 1945, 1954, 1963, 1972, 1981, 1990, 1999, 2008	1	5
1910, 1919, 1928, 1937, 1946, 1955, 1964, 1973, 1982, 1991, 2000, 2009	9	6
1911, 1920, 1929, 1938, 1947, 1956, 1965, 1974, 1983, 1992, 2001, 2010	8	7
1912, 1921, 1930, 1939, 1948, 1957, 1966, 1975, 1984, 1993, 2002, 2011	7	8
1913, 1922, 1931, 1940, 1949, 1958, 1967, 1976, 1985, 1994, 2003, 2012	6	9
1914, 1923, 1932, 1941, 1950, 1959, 1968, 1977, 1986, 1995, 2004, 2013	5	1
1915, 1924, 1933, 1942, 1951, 1960, 1969, 1978, 1987, 1996, 2005, 2014	4	2

Next, check your personal kua number against this table for your personal element and its representative colors. It is generally more beneficial for you to select a color that supports your personal element.

As a rule, if the color of your car reinforces your personal kua element, it will help to bring you overall good luck. So, if your kua number is 1, then a midnight blue exterior with black leather interior would be an excellent choice for you.

Kua	Element	Color
1	Water	Blue, Black
2	Earth	Yellow, Brown
3	Wood	Deep Green
4	Wood	Light Green
5	Earth	Yellow, Brown
6	Metal	White, Gold, Silver
7	Metal	White, Gold, Silver
8	Earth	Yellow, Brown
9	Fire	Red, Orange, Pink

Those who would like to fine-tune their personal feng shui can select colors that better suit their individual needs. If you use your car to ferry your kids to school or your spouse to work - activities centred on your family - it is more favorable to select a color which boosts your Nien Yen element. Thus, if your kua number is 2, a white exterior with a grey interior would be great. And if your kua number is 3, and you want more money and career luck, tornado red is an auspicious color for your car.

Kua #	Sheng Chi	Tien Yi	Nien Yen	Fu Wei
	(Money & Success)	(Health & Mentors)	(Love & Family)	(Personal Development)
1	Light Green	Deep Green	Red, Orange, Pink	Blue, Black
2	Yellow, Brown	White, Gold, Silver	White, Gold, Silver	Yellow, Brown
3	Red, Orange, Pink	Blue, Black	Light Green	Deep Green
4	Blue, Black	Red, Orange, Pink	Deep Green	Light Green
5	Yellow, Brown	White, Gold, Silver	White, Gold, Silver	Yellow, Brown
6	White, Gold, Silver	Yellow, Brown	Yellow, Brown	White, Gold, Silver
7	White, Gold, Silver	Yellow, Brown	Yellow, Brown	White, Gold, Silver
8	Yellow, Brown	White, Gold, Silver	White, Gold, Silver	Yellow, Brown
9	Deep Green	Light Green	Blue, Black	Red, Orange, Pink

Surveys of consumer preferences in leading automotive markets showed that more than one third (35% - 40%) chose silver (or metallic grey) as the color for their personal vehicles.

Silver had been gaining popularity in leaps and bounds, having displaced white as the fastest-selling car color since 2000.White (and its pearlescent variations), which has been the perennial favourite across all vehicle categories, continues to be one of the most popular car colors (25%-30%).

Gold has also moved into the top 10 popular car colors, garnering 10%-15% of consumers' votes.

White, grey, silver, gold… these colors account for 70%-80% of total cars sold in the past few years. Just take a look at the shiny new cars on the road today; it would appear that every other car you set eyes on was either silver or white.

Hmm… surely it cannot be mere coincidence that these also happen to be the colors of the metal element. More so, now that we are in the period of 7, which is of metallic element.

Automotive marketing experts say that customers' technological orientations coupled with advances in coatings technology have contributed to the global popularity of silver - not only in the automotive industry but also in home interior, fashion and architectural design as well.

From a feng shui point of view, technological advances along with the preference for metallic colors appear to be reflective of the properties of the period of 7. Although this trend appears to be going strong, we should bear in mind that year 2003 is at the tail-end of the period of 7, and the period of 8 is just around the corner.

This changeover to the period of 8, which is of earth element, is expected to bring about various transformations in energies around us. But, would it bring about any significant changes in consumer preferences? Well, let's wait and see.

Success On Your Feet

noreply@blogger.com (Angelina) — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 18:30:00 +0000

Look at your foot and in particular, check the dimensions and compare them to the rest of your body. The Chinese believe that the size, dimensions and fleshy quotient of our feet and hands as well as the lines and symbols, or lack of them, reveal a great deal about our destiny. In the Tung Shu, the ‘thousand observations of a thousand masters’ have been summarized to offer clues to one’s future destiny just by observing one’s feet. Chinese people have long paid close attention to the feet, believing them to be connected to every single part of our bodies hence the marvelous rejuvenative powers of foot reflexology. Here are 20 types of feet and their indications.

Wash your feet in soapy water and then rub it clean and dry before trying to look for the lines and symbols that reveal your destiny. Generally, clean and well-manicured feet tend to suggest a better life than ugly coarse feet that don’t get washed. Those who take the trouble to pamper their feet are sure to be rewarded with the promise of an increasingly better life, but in terms of luck however, there is more to feet than meets the eye.

1. When your feet are well balanced with nothing jutting out the skin is soft and the foot itself tapers elegantly looking quite long, this suggests the person will enjoy a rich lifestyle. You have friends and family and will never be short of anything. The feet should not look too fat or too thin, but be well balanced.

2. When your feet appear unbalanced with discolourations and rough skin, generally appearing rather ugly and botchy, and on top of that short as well, the prediction is that you could be destined to have a difficult life. There is worry and suffering with few breaks around. You might want to do something about cleaning up your feet!

3. When your feet are short, small and thick relative to your whole body, it suggests a life of great wealth and ease. Here the feet are obviously fleshy and soft to the touch. This suggests a person who does not need to work. Such feet usually belong to wealthy wives of rich tycoons and business people. The feet are not terribly attractive but sure are lucky indeed. If your girlfriend has such feet, she will bring you plenty of wealth luck.

4. When your feet are long, large and soft, looking too big for your body, it indicates you have no wealth luck. It is your destiny to be poor and your whole life is riddled with people trying to take advantage of you. Few of your projects succeed. You also lack the courage to take risks.

5. When your feet are soft but have plenty of lines crisscrossing the soles and upper feet, it suggests your life is good. Having plenty of lines usually indicates plenty of food on the table and plenty of travel. These lines do not mean worry. They suggest plenty of enjoyable travel luck.

6. When the center of either one of your feet has a prominent mole, it indicates you will become very prosperous and rich. If the mole is red, your wealth comes as a result of your charm and capabilities. If the mole is dark and black, it comes from the risks you take and the influential people you have in your life. A single mole on the feet is a very prosperous indication.

7. When you have three moles in a row on the center of either one of your feet, it is an indication of great political power. In the old texts it says you will become at least the head of two villages. Translated into modern times, this can indicate a successful political career up to Ministerial level or State Minister level. Three moles in a row always indicates political power and wealth usually comes with that political power.

8. When there is some kind of line in the center of either one of your feet that looks like an eye, it is a very favourable indication as it suggests you will amass great wealth, good fortune and more, and that you will successfully pass this on to your children and future generations. This indicates that wealth in your family will not get dissipated.

9. When the line in the center of either one of your feet looks like circle, it is indicative of your personality and your compassion. Those with this indication will impress others with their good heart, so many will speak well of you.

10. When the line in the center of the foot looks like a tortoise, this is a very strong indication of high office. The prediction is that you will become a minister or someone holding the very highest position in your country. Sometimes it can also indicate someone rising to the upper echelons of a corporate career and running a very large company.

11. When the lines at the base of your feet are hard and obvious, you will have power and influence all your life. This is an indication that you will become a minister of two different departments. You will control a great many people and you are imbued with excellent leadership qualities which make you a visionary and a spectacularly good leader.

12. When the line in the center of the feet resembles any kind of animal shape, it is an excellent indication. Obviously this is very rare, but should you spy something that suggests any one of the 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac or any one of the celestial creatures, then you are certain to become a powerful leader with the ability to overcome any kind of difficult situation. You will also have the potential to benefit many people with your strong leadership and kind heart. If you have such a sign, you have a very bright future indeed.

13. When the lines at the base of your feet are small and feel soft to the touch, it is likely you will become a strong leader who is both poplar and influential.

14. When the soles of your feet do not have any lines, it is not a good indication as it suggests your destiny does not look good. You will suffer from a perpetual shortage of money and life is a struggle for you.

15. When the soles of your feet are soft with many lines, you will enjoy a good and prosperous life.

16. When the soles of your feet have many small spots of either a dark colour or markings of a white colour, these are inauspicious indications. You are more poor than rich. Your life has many difficulties and it is a struggle to make life go smoothly.

17. When the soles of your feet are hard with no lines, it suggests you are a rather “low class” and cheap person. In fact it suggests that you tend to cheat and con people. If you find someone’s feet have no lines, this is a person you should avoid.

18. When the toes on your feet are sharp and long, it suggests that you can handle big responsibilities efficiently. Such people tend to become good managers and can rise to become CEO of a company. They also bring good luck to whoever they work for.

19. When one has feet with relatively long toes, this indicates a very famous and influential person. When the feet are also thick and fleshy, it is an indication that such a person’s family is very rich, belonging to the privileged class.

20. When the bottom of either of your feet has “crossed” lines, it is an auspicious sign as it suggests you have the luck to hold leadership positions and enjoy good fortune. Indeed all kinds of lines appearing at the bottom of your feet always suggest that you will forever have food and prosperity. There is no shortage of anything in your life. And if you are lucky enough to have three distinct lines at the bottom of any one of your feet, it means you will enjoy prosperity, wealth and longevity.

dZi Beads

noreply@blogger.com (Angelina) — Sun, 28 Oct 2007 19:45:00 +0000

Have you heard of dZi beads? (Pronounced as Zee) Its said to possess mysterious powers and bring good fortune to the wearer. Ancient and pure dZi beads of Tibet are extremely precious and rare. No matter how many or how few eyes they bear, all dZi beads possess the mystic power of bringing luck, warding off evil, stabilizing blood pressure, guarding against apoplexy and enhancing body strength. Owners and wearers of these beads are blessed with unexpected credit, luck and perfection.

The history of the mysterious Dzi Beads is filled with mythological and legendary stories. There are many inspiring tales about its origins and its talismanic powers, it remained undiscovered. dZi beads, usually the higher the number of eyes on a bead, the more desirable and higher the bead is in value. dZi beads with an odd number of eyes are more important than dZi beads with an even number of eyes. Different beads have different medicinal functions when worn. dZi beads can help dissipate excessive body heat which is one of the main causes of illness. They may also help calm the wearer’s mental state and promote physical and spiritual harmony. Larger beads have a stronger energy field and more healing effects than smaller beads, but the value of some small beads are higher than beads of larger sizes.

This site has many pictures on types , patterns and explanations individual mystical powers of dZi beads. You need to learn to identify fake from real old dZi beads, I found this site to be helpful. Please, I’m not promoting or selling their products. Neither do I know if they are genuine. Beware of fake Dzi beads, in Nepal you’ll see Dzi beads everywhere selling dead cheap, these imitations cost about 2-3 dollars. Don’t expect fake beads to work, but if it does its most probably your subconscious mind the does the work. LOL

The gorgeous patterns on theses gems were not man-made nor glazed, like ones found on beautiful, brilliantly colored fake Dzi being sold all over the market. Instead, these patterns are formed via thousands of years of special processes. The older a Dzi, the more faded yet lustrous the patterns. Only the experienced eye may tell the true value of a Dzi. There are no two identical authentic dZi because they are natural.

Some of the most sought after Dzi beads:
a) Hound's Tooth Dzi: said to bless the wearer with peace. Perfect for those who cannot sleep well at night and are plagued by anxiety. By calming the self, luck can start coming your way more efficiently.

b) Heaven Cyclops: The powerful single eye of this Dzi is said to spike the wearer's discerning intelligence. The wearer becomes blessed with the power of discerning more clearly and effectively his/her social circle, and eliminate troublemakers from their immediate social circle or render them harmless with a superior tact and wisdom.

c) Nine-Eye Imperial Dzi: The most desirable of different dzi patterns, the nine-eye symbolizes a well-rounded fortune for the wearer. Their Zen or practices of the heart and of wisdom will speed up infinitely, and good things in life are accentuated.

Chi Energy / Healing

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 07:45:00 +0000

Chi Breathing is an "Art" of generating beneficial and healing energy through combining the relaxed but focused mind ("Yi") and the body - in harmony. A key objective and process of Chi Breathing techniques is to maximize the beneficial assimilation of oxygen in the body to promote well-being and healing.

Chi Breathing' "Block of Breathing" method is highly beneficial, because it promotes:
1. Pain relief
2. Increased energy
3. Improved lymphatic drainage
4. Better absorption of nutrition and enhancement of digestion
5. Improved disposal of body waste
6. Enhanced immune system
7. Increased blood and thermal circulation
8. Increased release of neuro-chemicals, particularly endorphins for pain relief
9. Better sleep and relaxation
10. Improved sense of well being which helps to alleviate depression, anxiety and stress
11. Regaining and maintaining the balance of Ying and Yang - which is vital to sustaining total health of mind and body

Getting started with Chi Breathing :
1. It must be emphasized that it is not an alternative to conventional medical treatment.It is a supplementary and complementary therapy!

2. The "Block of Breathing" method is done in a relaxed state and will bring about no physical 'wear and tear'. Consequently, as this is not an exercise that will result in strain or tiredness (but, on the contrary, promotes relaxation and well being) it should be done five to seven times a day for sessions of half an hour or even longer.

In the beginning, each session should last as long as it takes to feel any of the following 'signs'. These signs indicate proper "Chi Flow" (energy flow) through the body.
• Heat waves - heat flow, from very mild to moderate warmth coursing through the body, especially the face, spinal column, hands and fingers.
• A tingling sensation (pleasant - not 'pins and needles').
• A very pleasant bubbling feeling of blood flow just below skin level; sometimes deeper around the face and head; up to a rippling at the hairline and on the scalp.
• 'Tremors' through the body. These may be imperceptible in the beginning. They should then increase (particularly, with regular practice). Do not fight it. Just let it come. It will become more pronounced and you will, in due course, feel a pulsing vibration coursing through your body.

3. If you have pain, the pain will ease off. Regardless of how intense the pain is, with correct and regular practice of "Block of Breathing”, the pain will go. You should feel:
• A slight numbness and warmth at the pain site.
• The pain eases and then goes away completely.
• A feeling of ‘lightness’ follows; this indicates the flow of endorphins, which is a natural and beneficial neuro-chemical. This is the first step towards healing - and indicates that you are breathing correctly!
• Your breathing; becomes rhythmic, effortless, yet consistent and strong. Again, this indicates correct breathing.

Do more "Block of Breathing" to ease this pain. If you notice that there is a cycle to your pain, start the "Block of Breathing" session before the pain cycle begins in order to intercept it. If possible, do not wait Until the pain has become intense before starting the breathing session, as it will then be harder to concentrate on doing the exercise correctly.

4. There is no harm if you "overdose" i.e. do too much of "Block of Breathing" as there will be no adverse side effects if you do it more than suggested.

5. Emotion controls how you breathe. So, by deliberately changing the way you breathe, you can alter your emotions. To illustrate the last point, think of a time in your life when you were very sad, fearful, angry or anxious. Recall how you were breathing at that time. If you can, you will probably remember that your breathing was shallow, fast and/or irregular and with no rhythm. This is typical of the way a person in an emotionally agitated state would breathe.
On the other hand, when one breathes deeply and rhythmically (using deep diaphragmatic breathing) one feels more in control, confident, focused and stronger. The latter state is what we want to create and sustain.Indeed, there is on old Qi Gong saying: "Emotions control your breathing. 'Chi' breathing controls your emotions."

6. As we have mentioned above, a positive mental attitude is important to promoting and sustaining well-being. Smiling is a powerful therapy. Therefore, when doing your "Block of Breathing" exercises, smile as much - and as often - as possible. Smiling relaxes the face muscles and encourages the flow of endorphins - which we need to stimulate the release of in order to achieve natural pain relief. Conversely, frowning tenses us and thus restricts the endorphin flow.

7. Deep diaphragmatic breathing (also known as abdominal breathing) does not mean putting air into the stomach area. What it emphasizes is that instead of inflating only the upper part of your lungs (which most adults tend to do as the “stomach in and chest out” look is almost universally accepted as being attractive) when we breathe in, we should breathe deeply into our lungs, thereby expanding the lungs fully. This could thus be described correctly as "total lung breathing" - which is the natural way of breathing. Indeed, this is how babies breathe. Notice that when they inhale, their abdomens rise rather than their chests. So, this is the proper and healthy way of breathing - as nature intended.

The mechanics of proper breathing are as follows:
1. When you inhale, let the air go deep down into your abdominal area. This enables your lungs to take in more air without the tension of "upper chest" breathing.
2. When you exhale, you should squeeze the abdomen back towards the spine, for in doing so the diaphragm is pushed upwards and stale air is expelled from the bottom of the lungs. Think of your torso as a pair of bellows. In order to take in more "clean" air, you need to expel as much as possible of the "stale" air. In order to do the latter, squeeze your "bellows" fully on exhalation.
This way of breathing is, therefore, absolutely efficient. It ensures that every intake brings in more fresh air and that all stale air is expelled.

Special Points to bear in mind before starting;
a) Inhalation: When you begin, inhale only a small amount of air. Just inhale enough to comfortably move your diaphragm (i.e. the "stomach" area just below your solar plexus). Do NOT try to take too much in! In this case, "less is more". The aim is to relax and be comfortable. Even a little air will be sufficient to enhance the 'Chi' flow.
When you have become comfortable with the deep diaphragmatic breathing technique, you may then inhale a little more. However, never over inhale to the point you feel "light in the head" or any clear discomfort.

b) Complete exhalation is vital! Your aim should be to rid your lungs of all stale air every time you exhale - so that you can then fill it anew with fresh air.

The "Block of Breathing" Method or Chi Meditation Breathing for Healing Method

NOTE: Use Deep Diaphragmatic Breathing throughout

Step 1 - Preparing and positioning yourself
• Lie down on your back, or if that is not comfortable you can be inclined. (The key is to be comfortable).
• Place a small firm pillow or a rolled up towel under your neck to support it - as the weight of the head should not be on your neck.
• Elevate your legs to help your circulation e.g. Place them on Cushions, pillows or a stool.
• As your energy level is low, place a hot pack or a hot water bottle on your lower abdomen, below the navel. This will help to bring the heat and energy level up quickly.
• Focus your mind on the lower abdomen or ‘Tan Tien’, located some 2 inches (5 cm) below the navel. (The ‘Tan Tien’ is the energy centre known in Qi Gong as the “the Elixir Centre” (home of the ‘Chi’) and should be kept warm.)

Step 2 - Relaxing
Relax and "soften" your shoulders and upper body. One way to achieve this is to curl forward from the waist, lift each of ~the shoulders up towards the ears and then roll them forward. When you have done so, lie back and you should find your shoulders more relaxed. You m1v adjust yourself until you feel comfortable and relaxed.

Step 3 - Retaining the 'Tan Tien' focus
Check to ensure that your focus is still on the lower 'Tan Tien'. If other thoughts come into your head, realize that you have been distracted and then consciously, regain your focus. Keep bringing your mental focus back to the 'Tan Tien'. "Where your focus is, that is also where your energy is!"

Step 4 - Inhaling
• Inhale gently through the nose only (never inhale through the mouth as it is unhygienic). No count required here.
• Allow the air to gently inflate (ie. Not too much) the lower abdomen. (This causes the diaphragm to flatten and the lungs to elongate – which allows more air to be taken in comfortably).

WARNING: DO NOT hyperventilate i.e. don't breathe too deeply and/or too fast. If you find that, in addition to expanding your abdomen during inhalation, your upper chest is also inflating and rising, you are breathing incorrectly. If you continue to do so, it will result in tension and stress, which in turn, will block the benefits of the "Block of Breathing" exercise.

Step 5 - Holding your breath - The Pause
Hold your breath for 4 seconds, then in a relaxed manner,
• Gently draw up the pelvic floor/scrotum, and then smoothly and naturally tighten the anus. Do NOT strain.
• This will result in a gentle tilting upwards of the pelvic area.
NOTE: The Pause generates energy and heat that will be used beneficially in the next Step.

Step 6 - Exhaling ("pursed lip exhalation")
• Pucker your lips - as though you are preparing to whistle. Exhale by blowing through your pursed lips gently and evenly for 6 seconds. As you get stronger, extend this to 9 or even up to 12 seconds.
• IMPORTANT: As you exhale, draw the tummy - starting with the 'Tan Tien' area - back towards your spine. Maintain constant but not excessive pressure on your 'Tan Tien' (which you may, recall, lies about 2" below the navel).

NOTE:
(a) Exhalation is the most important part of 'Chi' breathing. It acts as a "pump", sending out the heat and healing energy (which you would have built up during the Pause) throughout your body.
(b) Generally, the longer the exhalation, the more relaxed and alkaline the body will become. (Remember that stress and tension makes your system acidic.)

Step 7 – The 2nd Pause
This is the last step in the “Block of Breathing” cycle.
After fully exhaling, pause for 4 seconds before inhaling again. Relax the entire lower
pelvic area during this (2nd) Pause.
Repeat the cycle as in Steps 4 to 7 for a minimum of half an hour more. Be assured that with consistent practice, the benefits will follow!

Maintaining and persisting
As with learning anything new, you will initially feel that you are following instructions in a mechanical or even robotic manner. It will feel unnatural and you may even feel frustrated as you forget the steps or the "finer points" for correct technique.This is only normal and to be expected. Do not let it dissuade you from continuing, for it will pass. As you continue to practice, it will become more and more "natural" and rhythmic and your ability to focus on your 'Tao Tim' will become easier.

Remember, "Rome was not built in a day"! Things take time. But you will be amazed at how quickly the technique - and with it, the benefits - will come.

When you start feeling tired, don't fight it. Just allow yourself to go to sleep. Tiredness is merely your body's way of letting you know that it needs to rest and recover. Being at rest is in itself a "self-healing state"! When you awaken or become alert again, just continue with your "Block of Breathing".

Summary:
Sensations that you may feel while doing the correct "Block of Breathing"
You will know that you have done a good "Chi Breathing" session, when you 'feel' in your body the following sensations (these are general indications although individual experiences may vary):

'Heat Flow' - Waves of heat flow, from very mild to moderate warmth, coursing through the body, especially J the face, spinal column, hands and fingers. (Peripheral circulation is enhanced).

'Tingling' sensation - A pleasant feeling, not ‘pins and needles’.

‘Bubbling’ feeling - A very pleasant bubbling feeling of energized blood flow felt just below skin level. It will sometimes be felt deeper around the face and head and there may also be a rippling sensation at the hairline and scalp.

'Tremors' through the body - Initially, a slight feeling of tremors will be felt. Again, do not 'fight it'. Just let it come. It will become more pronounced as it develops into a stronger vibration-like sensation.

Meanings of Body Moles

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Sat, 26 Aug 2006 00:28:00 +0000

The Chinese believe moles can be lucky or unlucky depending on where they are located, what colour they are, and how large they appear in proportion to our body. A mole can be a tiny black speck on the feet signifying opportunities for travel, or it can be a dark red dot on the hand, often interpreted as indicating a particular skill or luck associated with one’s hands. Moles on our backs denote some kind of burden we have to carry, while moles at the front of our bodies are said to attract success luck. This issue we offer this special feature on moles based on information from the Tung Shu and other Taoist sources. If you have ever wondered what that mole on your neck, back or thigh means, read on.

Some say that the moles on our bodies are in reality secret imprints carried over from our previous lives, stamps of some past karmic deed meant to ripen in this life, good as well as bad. Others contend that moles are messages of good fortune and misfortune that reflect important turning points of our life. Each noticeable mole on our body carries a hidden meaning, or depicts some secret obstacle or unexpected help from someone.

In certain traditions, the messages of moles were so significant it could even be read as bringing bad luck to the family, or so highly revered that the member of the family with the mole would be highly revered. Many cultures contend of course that the larger and more prominent the mole, the greater its power. Another widely held belief is that lighter-coloured moles spell better fortune. Here is what the Chinese generally have to say about moles on our body.

Moles On The Front Of The Body

Find The Numerology of Your Home Address

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Thu, 27 Apr 2006 22:35:00 +0000

All numbers have an imprint of ancient number symbolism. Every number is sacred and represents a vibration. In numerology, numbers express of a characteristic, energetic. representation of a spiritual idea.

It is very interesting to determine the numerology of your home’s address! Does it represent your hopes and dreams? Find out how to calculate the numerology of your home here:

There are two different numbers you can formulate to determine the sacred numerology of your home. One formulates the numerology of your street number, and the other formulates both the street number and the road or street name in total to determine the overall sacred number. It is particularly interesting to find both numbers. Are the complimentary? Do they cause conflict?

If the numerology of your home isn’t in alignment for what you wish for in your life, you can change the vibration of the numerology by naming your house (making sure to work out the name’s numerology using the methods outlined below, to meet your wishes!).

Calculate numerology from numbers by using what is called diagonal addition. For example, to find the numerology of your street address, you add the numbers together. For example:
72 Main Street
7+2=9

Or, to find the numerology of the street number with a double digit result:
437 Maple Street
4+3+7=14 …. 1+4=5

Or, for another example:
394 Winchester St.
3+9+4=16 ….1+6=7

In order to determine the numbers of letters, write out the entire alphabet and beginning with A give a number sequentially. For example A(1), B(2), C(3), etc. The best way to do this is to write out the alphabet in a row or two, and underneath each letter assign the number in sequential order.

So, for example, the numerology of 72 Main Street is a result of this formula:
7+2+1+3 [13 (M)]+1(A)+9(I)+1+4 [14(N)]+1+9 [19(S)]+2 [20(T)]+1+8[18(R)] +5(E)+5(E)+2 [20(T)]=61 = 6+1=7

The Meaning of the Numbers
If numerology interests you, do find a great resource about numerology numbers. Due to space constraints, this expose of numerology numbers is very simplistic.

One
Totality, completeness, center, new beginnings

Two
Balance of opposites, polarity.

Three
Fulfillment, social gathering, achievement

Four
Harmony, stability, strength, practicality

Five
Marriage, male/female unity, freedom, change

Six
Love, compassion, home

Seven
Solitude, spirituality, introspective

Eight
Abundance, prosperity, accomplishment

Nine
Completion, selflessness, letting go of the old

Feeling Human Aura with your hands

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Thu, 27 Apr 2006 22:26:00 +0000

The Aura is an electromagnetic energy field that surrounds us. I used to laugh at that idea. How could anybody believe something so ridiculous? Simple! Using the correct technique the aura is easily visible. Although my courses are about Dream Interpretation I started showing people how to see and feel the aura to overcome their skepticism when I’d get to discussing the spiritual dimension of dreams. This article focuses on feeling it. I always enjoy this part of the course because it is something that works for everyone. People get totally charged at the magic and simplicity of it. I urge you to try this one. It will only take five minutes but could very well change your life by opening you up to a whole new dimension.

How to Feel the Human Aura with your Hands
The Aura is an electromagnetic energy field that surrounds us. I used to laugh at that idea. How could anybody believe something so ridiculous? Simple! Using the correct technique the aura is easily visible. Although my courses are about Dream Interpretation I started showing people how to see and feel the aura to overcome their skepticism when I’d get to discussing the spiritual dimension of dreams. This article focuses on feeling it. I always enjoy this part of the course because it is something that works for everyone. People get totally charged at the magic and simplicity of it. I urge you to try this one. It will only take five minutes but could very well change your life by opening you up to a whole new dimension.

Preparation
Find a partner who wants to try this with you. Only one of you will be able to feel the aura at a time so take turns. While doing this make sure you can see a clock or watch with a second hand. Assuming you are the one going to try it first here's what to do. The pictures correspond to the steps.

Join your hands in a praying position at chest height.
Have your partner place their hands over yours so as to keep your hands together. For a period of at least one minute but not more than 90 seconds try to pull your hands apart while your partner applies pressure to stop you. Make sure to put effort into pulling your hands apart. This will hurt your arms but it's immediately worth it.

When the time us up have your partner completely remove their hands from yours and step back from you. Move your hands to just above waist height and hold them parallel six to nine inches apart. Hold this position.

What you will feel
You will feel like you are holding magnets in the palms of your hands and that they are repelling each other. Ever so gently, moving just a fraction of an inch at a time, move your hands closer together and then further apart. Don't let them get any closer than two inches. While moving them together try to detect the point of strongest pressure where your hands are repelling each other. Stop the movement at this point and then gently move your hands further apart and then back to this point. The pressure will increase as you 'collect' the energy with your hands. This point of maximum pressure marks one layer of the aura.

Now move your hands to just over hip distance apart. Let the energy build up between your hands so you can feel it again. Now gently bring your hands closer again remembering to keep them parallel. You will feel another layer of the aura at a distance from between 24 inches to 14 inches. The distance varies from person to person. Once you detect this point collect the energy again by gently moving your hands further apart and then back to that point.

If you have difficulty
The most important step is where you try to pull your hands apart while your partner stops you. This gets the blood and energy flowing down your arms. To increase the flow push apart with your fingers as well as your hands. If it doesn't hurt you are not doing it hard enough. If you cannot feel it let your partner take a turn. When they feel it they can help describe to you how to feel it more easily.

How to improve your new ability
After resting for a while stand up and hold your hands as in step 3 above. Just allow the energy to build up and you will begin to feel it within one minute. You'll be glad to know that you never need to doe steps 1 and 2 again. Repeat this the next day. You will now always be able to feel the aura by just holding your hands parallel and letting the energy build up. It's that simple.

Activating 3rd Eye

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Thu, 20 Apr 2006 14:46:00 +0000

3 rd Eye Activation and basic usage
Here an easy way to activate the 3rd-eye, or the inner eye, in a passive way: looking and perceiving.

Introduction
We are truly spirits, who occupy physical bodies to participate in physical reality: without our bodies we couldn't be a part of it. We can consider the physical body as a vehicle, or using a modern word, a craft.

Most spirits forget that they are truly spirits, spiritual beings. But how? We get overwhelmed by a dimension we didn't experience before, we even didn't know what time or space is, because as spirits we didn't experience such a limiting reality as here. That's what the call was we heard, and many couldn't reject its challenge. We entered by many adjustments, called dimensional doors, until we were able to enter a human-body. What we call taking birth, is a long prepared-for procedure. We finally enter and accept the body, when we take birth. But then as babies we are in a period of time where we leave and enter easily, as our vehicle is new for us and we aren't yet so identified and addicted to it.

Growing up means the spirit learns to use the vehicle, we learn to walk, even speak and behave in social conformity. This learning pulls our attention to the physical senses, so better we learn to interpret the signals, and better we operate with our physical body here.

We as spiritual beings naturally see, it's part of our nature. Seeing through eyes, which means looking through two holes, but which serves us with many fancy signals from a colorful toy, even TV or even WWW such as here. We can refocus our inner eye away from the physical eyes. This is called activation of third-eye, in a passive observing way.

Some of you maybe heard of or even experienced what is known as Shape-Shifting or Mirror Gazing, looking at aspects of yourself. This is one step of the usage of the third-eye.

Pre-Stages of Third Eye Perceptions
Before I go ahead with my personal view on third-eye, let me describe some pre-stages.

◊ Most people have very tiny particles in their eyes, and we usually don't perceive them as our focus is most 1-2m in front of our eyes. But in a very relaxed moment, we can focus very close to the physical eye itself, and perceive some particles, which distort bright objects and give a more colorful surrounding. This is a physical effect, not a subtle perception.

◊ Some people feel presences in the corner of their sight, and try by turning their head, to catch the presence they felt. This can be a real being, that is trying to get your attention. Your physical attention is mainly in the center of your sight, in the corner your sight it gets less focused, and sometimes your inner eye overlaps with the corner of your physical sight. This perception tends to be a real subtle perception of your third-eye.

◊ Some of the spiritually-interested people have drug experiences, like marijuana or cocaine, where some altered states of consciousness are experienced. But the difference between using drugs (including legal ones like alcohol) and the natural use of the non-physical senses is, that drugs distort perception by removing the natural blockages which are expressions our spiritual maturity and allowance. I personally do not promote usage of drugs, even legal ones, to achieve altered states, as it does indeed create more than just physical imbalances, but astral distortions as well, which are more difficult to be healed.

I believe, that all people have third-eye experiences, but most people do not pay attention to them, as their belief-systems simply reject these experiences as real. A part of this text may help to make one become aware of it again, and accept it as part of reality, and no longer para-normal, but simply normal.

Preparation and Training
One issue of preparation is, reading such an article about the third eye, even your conscious mind catches a part of the concept. It's not meant to make-up or even create a huge amount of expectation, but an open mind.

Here are some well known preparations, which you can practice to open and prepare yourself. You can do it daily, or even weekly in circles, whatever you prefer.

◊ Take a candle, watch the flame for a period of time, let's say 1-2 minutes. try to think calming thoughts, try to feel the room you are in, and feel comfortable with yourself. Don't stare until your eyes tear, but simply watch the flame, and allow your thoughts to calm as your body does too. Try to establish a meditative state, but different than a common meditation: with open eyes.

◊ If you have a pet, like a cat or dog, try to watch her or his eyes, and relax and try to establish a deep peace in you. Pets usually reflect humans' emotions and thoughts and therefore teach us our own inner peace by surrounding humans.

◊ Watch your face in a mirror, try not to laugh or smile about the ridiculous situation looking at yourself. Look at your face, in a kind of distance, saying to yourself: That's now my face, it's part of myself, my physical body, my vehicle. Try to watch your own face for 1-2 min. too, with dimmed light if possible instead of bright light which might hurt your eyes.

◊ If you feel better in nature than in your own apartment, look for a place where you feel totally calmed and relaxed, for example a lake, or river. Try to achieve a meditative state, but as mentioned, with open eyes.

It's simply important, that you can calm with open eyes. It's much easier to calm and relax yourself with closed eyes, when the visual influences are disabled that distract our inner being, but for this procedure it's quite helpful to reach the same state with open eyes.

A Theoretical Background
As said before, you inhabit a physical body, which serves you with physical senses, where the visual sense, our eyes, feed us with thousands of electrical signals every second. It's no surprise that it's not well known to look without physical eyes, especially in the technical times we live in today, where everything has to be multimedia to get our attention.

This is the most common case in western society. We are very visually oriented, and our technically oriented attention and research needs a high degree of ability to perceive physical reality in order to change it as we did mainly with industrialization, as an example. An additional thought you may find in Inner Realization vs. Technology. I may not go into that more, as today's world already says enough.

This is the issue I try to describe here in the entire text: the physical eyes serve impressions of the physical reality to the inner eye, which I indicate with the presence in the middle of the head (point of presence), as I perceive and feel it. If your physical eyes get prepared by yourself, and reduce the traffic of information, you slowly and partly will watch through the inner eye, or third eye, which may give you impressions beyond physical reality. The nature of this subtle picture is different than the impressions of physical reality. More simply said, physical pictures passed by the eye are real in the order of physicality, and the pictures of the inner eye are real in the order of subtle reality. To bring both together, that's the real issue. The understanding of their correlations I only partly can share in this text, since this is mainly achieved through practice.

This case is somewhat rare, and is only achieved with a lot of practice and inner allowance. Giving up the attention to physical eyes is dependent on a deep trust that there is more than physical reality, and often there is a lot of fear involved, deep fear to lose any orientation of physical reality, at least I experienced it that way, when I slowly shifted away from my physical eyes too. I describe more about this below.

By the way, the issue of having open eyes is to make it easier to allow becoming aware of the inner eye. Some people, even experienced spiritually aware people prefer to see with closed physical eyes. In our strong belief-system most of us use to define, that we only can see with open eyes. Anyway, in this case I like to describe, it's easier to do it with open eyes.

Somehow, this theoretical background is my chosen belief-system to comprehend mentally the experiences I personally made. Take it as a personal truth, not more.

The Activation, Its Passive Usage
I suggest two preferred kinds of procedures to achieve the best results.

Mirror Watching - A Single Person
This version is a further practice of one of the relaxation suggestions I made above:

Watch your face in a mirror, with dimmed light. Make sure you are alone, or you know that no one will interrupt you, as you have to slip into a very relaxed state of consciousness, where any physical interruption may affect you much deeper. Choose maybe an evening, not a special time, but maybe after work, when you are perhaps already a bit tired physical and mentally. If you feel really tired, don't practice it or don't even urge or strain yourself to do it. Do it when you feel comfortable, it's important you feel comfortable, there is no competition to win or to constrain things. I say this, as I came across people who constrained things mentally, and blocked themselves with this urge.

Again, watch your face, relax yourself by a calming suggestion such as, "I'm in peace within myself, I simply watch my face to calm and find peace in me". Focus with your physical eyes on one point, between your eyes, forehead, or one single eye. Do not try to watch both eyes, because it will make you move your sight.

Don't move with your sight or blink your eyes, because it's necessary to allow your attention to move away from your physical eyes toward your inner eye.

Choose a point on your face you focus, and don't change it anymore. Remain on this point as long as possible, again don't constrain it, if you feel not comfortable doing so. After some moments, maybe 30-60 secs and you are fully relaxed, you will feel an warmth on your back, neck area. I do mention this, so that you simply get aware of your energy. If you don't feel anything special, don't worry, don't expect, but if you do feel it, know you are well underway.

The warmth is energy, which you attract by refocusing your attention. You can say, it's a type of preparing energy from your spirit-guides, or beings helping you in your spiritual path, or simply perceive it as presence of the good. It's not so important you know exactly what it is, or who it is. If it feels comfortable, open yourself even more. Imagine an inner door you open, while you still are looking at your face and this particular point.

After some moments you may see a short change in your own face, starting at the point you are looking at. Don't await this, but be open to allow it to happen. If you wait for it to happen with your mind to grab it, it will not happen.

You have to release the attention to watch with your physical eyes!

The change of your own face, is an overlapping picture which reaches your consciousness, the one picture served from your physical eyes will be smoothly overlapped like a slide by another face, another presence. This face may be humanoid.

When this happens, breathe slowly and surround yourself with the best and most delightful energy that you can, and maybe close your eyes for a moment to give your eyes some moisture and cleansing for your physical eyes, as we are usually not experienced with having open eyes for 60 seconds or longer. Focus again on a point, maybe the same as before, and relax your sight again as much as possible, and you will slip very easily and faster until your face will change again.

If you see parts of someone else's face in yours, watch as an observer, but only look, don't judge what you see, even if it's a beautiful or grotesque face, just look, just watch.

This entire procedure maybe shouldn't go for longer than 5-10 minutes, and if you don't see anything after 2-3 minutes, stop it. Again, no constraining, but allowance. Don't even judge yourself if nothing happens the first time.

This Mirror Watching is a subset of the so-called Mirror Magick. In this context, the mirror is generally used to focus the attention and will to make affirmations, for example, to call spirits, or even focus on third eye.

Watching Faces, or Shape Shifting - For Two Persons
This is the way I would prefer for most who have already some experiences with the mirror, even if they are just small and short snapshots of other faces in your own.
Ask a friend, who is interested in energies, as well as meditation and who you can openly share spiritual concepts with, without fearing that he or she may laugh at you. Some basic knowledge of chakras may be very good for both of you to know. Practice a relaxing meditation, for 10-15 minutes, like surround yourself with light, and balance all the trouble and distraction from your daily life.

Choose two chairs, and maybe a table with a small little candle in the middle, but it's not especially necessary, it simply helps you to relax better, and shifts the consciousness into a more relaxed state. You could also sit on the ground, but make sure you are comfortable, I can't repeat that enough. Keep about 1.5 to 2 meters distance between you and your friend. Make sure that there is no direct light, dim any artificial light, or use a candle as mentioned.

Look at each other's face, choose one point in the face of each other, either the nose, the point between the eyes, the forehead or whatever. It's not important where you look with your physical eyes, it is important though that you relax your sight totally. Even as said before, don't move your sight anymore when you have anchored your sight, and don't blink anymore if possible. Every blink of your eye-lids brings your inner attention back to your physical eyes, so it is therefore important you allow your attention to move away from the physical sight by relaxing mentally as well as physically.

Breath deeply, and feel whether energy surrounds you, as in the example of warmth around your head, face or back of the neck. Warmth in your face will indicate the energy the other one radiates by his or hear third-eye; warmth on the back, upper part of body or even neck indicates a coming presence entering your aura, attracted by the activity.

The moment you see something, speak out what you see ... relax again and focus back until you see another face. Allow also your friend to focus, and maybe wait until he or she gets a glimpse of a change. Again, there is no competition to win, seeing something doesn't mean it's better. If it's happening fine, if it doesn't happen fine too. Help each other with patience. If it works easily, describe the face while you see it.

At the beginning you maybe will have difficulties focus on one face, as there may appear 10-15 different faces during a very few seconds, as if you are watching a slide-show, but someone doesn't wait until you can grasp its meaning. It's like you see, but you have to learn to turn the channel smoothly, like a radio station. If there is a face, which attracts you, and you remember it well for that short time, think of this face, and allow yourself deeply to move back to this face, smoothly. It takes training to focus on one presence longer.

Other activations
Crystal Sphere: This I didn't experienced myself, but it's just another way to relax the physical eyes, to move the attention to the inner eye. The crystal-sphere allows by its physical structure, to recognize no real pattern to begin to search astrally for connected presences and energies. When watching faces, you go with a key, even the face. The difference with the sphere, is you have to build within yourself a key, for what you are looking for.

Candle:The candle initiation I heard of, but I don't know exactly how it's done. It seems, that the preparation technique of using a candle is used to reach a certain state of consciousness, where other beings can be perceived in the flame. Often some kind of ceremonies are involved to invoke spirits, who support the activation.

If you are successful fast, practice as often as possible so you feel comfortable - to make your conscious mind ready to allow you to perceive in your daily-life with the inner eye as well, not just in a prepared surrounding.

In case nothing happens, absolutely no feeling, no changing of the face, your attention may be strictly on the physical, which is ok. I met a lot of people hanging around and partly rejecting their being on the physical, and its better for them to ground themselves first beforehand, in order to train psychic abilities such as this third-eye example. If the time is right, you might come across other ways to train your subtle senses. Be open, and not disappointed about yourself.

Further Steps
When you practice Watching Faces or Shape Shifting weekly, and you get skilled in focusing also during daily-light and moving faces, you may take pictures, and focus on them.

Focus as described above, and form a key, to attract the connected energies of the picture. This key is an inner question and thought-pattern which you broadcast literally with your mind. It's different than channeling, as you receive a picture related to the picture. It will tend to be a face too, but not necessarily. If other face-forms appear, be open, don't judge or censor them with your current belief-system.

Watch people's face around you. While you talk to them, watch their aspects they keep, it will give you a glimpse of their bigger personality, that each of us is. You may perceive aspects of someone's personality, that you may connect with the concept of past-lives, or you might see a personality aspect one is balancing in his or her present life.

Some hints about things you may experience when you are a bit skilled:

I get headache when doing this, what can I do?
Well, it's like you re-use something you haven't used for a very long time, and your brain has problems grasping all the information. It could be also, that you have an energy-blockage in the third-eye chakra. Try putting one hand on your heart-chakra, and the other one on the forehead, then change with the one hand from your forehead to back of your head. It may help. Especially after the first time you watch with third-eye you may experience a headache the next day or so, but it shouldn't be heavy headache.

There are a lot of faces, what does that mean?
This person is dealing with a lot of personality aspects, which may be perceived in a spiritual manner as entities in her or his aura. I tend to remain in silence and not share this perception, as I made the experience that it does disturb the person even more than help her. Maybe mention the major impression of all faces, for example fear, or not being respected. Support this person with words of understanding and suggestions of integration of the so-called denied aspects of her or himself. People who tend to judge themselves being unworthy tend to have a lot of faces of sadness, or beings in their auras which have distorted looks of accidents or sickness when they left their bodies, and now had found an embodied being, who shares the same view of him or herself. It's a symbiotic relationship of sympathy, not a case to judge.

I see freaky and ugly faces, what does it mean?
Freaky faces tend to be associated with mentally unsteady people, who have no focus, and tend to be attracted by everything which seems to give them something. Ugly faces, there you have to distinguish very carefully, sometimes there are past-lives coming through, where other kinds of beauty counted in society that may not be like today. Sometimes, with people who are afraid of getting fat, you may see very fat faces. Understand that they fear to repeat this again, and have a difficult connection with their bodies.

How do I know, whether it's a being, or a past-life?
Generally speaking, you see associated energies. Your inner knowledge will allow you to understand the bigger picture. Non-balanced past-lives, which someone rejects inside, appear as another being in his or her aura, or even attract like-minded bounded entities. Don't define it according your current belief-system, where past-lives are a part too, maybe read Reincarnation and The Self for some additional understanding or suggestions. I personally need to use some time (from minutes, hours, even months), before I'm able to sort out all the impressions I've gotten and understand within me, when I watched with the third-eye to someone before.

There is no other face, but the same just a bit younger. What does it
I personally only saw one single person, where I shifted my focus and watched with my third-eye, and the face didn't change, but got bright and more intense in appearance than the physical view I had before. When I tried to find out what it did mean, I received the hint, that this person indeed has integrated all aspects of himself, and that this person is to become complete, self-realized.

I can't watch animal faces, what now?
It takes some experience to do this. I did it with our dog and saw a similar dog in him, but I couldn't get any more impressions. Once I tried with our hare, and he had no face, but he turned into a bright glowing white ball ... it touched me so deeply, I can't describe here in words. It made me remember the divinity of all creatures.

Is it for sure that the things I see are connected to the person?
Yes, and to you too. You look with the key-pattern of the other person's face into the pool of all patterns. The more skilled you are, the deeper the patterns you will get. Every piece of information is given to you in understanding. You may experience also some cases, where you are not permitted to get information. You will feel or even listen to your spirit-guides, who are always involved in the moment you watch with your third-eye. The more open you are, the more universal information you can access. If you have a strong belief-system, the more you limit yourself in order to understand the things you perceive.

When meditating it's said not to drink alcohol or eat meat, the same for third-eye watching?
Well, alcohol affects the solar-plexus very much, as well as the throat chakra where a part of the subtle energy of the alcohol gets absorbed. In the case of meat, especially raw meat, it does attract beings who have experienced the same death. Check out by watching a slaughter house with the third-eye, and you will know what I mean. As most of us are opening and starting to use the charkas consciously, you might try to reduce any possible influence which might distort your perception.

To whom I may share this third-eye activation?
Everyone you feel might be open, and understand its meaning. Those who are not able to handle it, will not able to see. The only additional thing I may say is, don't play with it, but use it to bring understanding of the subtle reality into this world.

This is so far some of the common issues I came across when I showed people how to watch with the third-eye.

Advanced States - Lucid Sight
A further step in looking with the third-eye, I call Lucid Sight. I experienced it a few times, and so far haven't read anything about it. I only once listened to a professional psychic who saw my spirit-guardians and described their appearance, and I honestly doubted that she saw them. Some time later, when I trained my third-eye a bit more and I saw light-beings, I knew she possibly was right in the way she saw them.

If you are focusing on the person, and you move away from the face, for example to the outline, and you start to see the dull milky aura of the person, you even have to let go more of your watching with the physical eyes. You slip into a trance like state, but you are fully conscious, your mind is totally passive, observing, a very peaceful state. Slowly the entire surrounding begins glowing by itself, not only the person you looking at, but the wall, and all things standing around.

When I remained in this state, my sight got expanded, not fully spherical 360 degrees, but maybe 240 degrees, as I could see things behind my shoulders glowing, and I felt, how I literally gave up watching with my physical eyes, as I no longer had stereoscopic view, but one intensive looking and feeling of living energy in the entire room I was sitting in.

You will see glowing smoke like dancing energies, and you will see your own aura or energy flooding your sight, and everything will get brighter and brighter without any need for artificial light. You might be able to see light-beings standing or being present in the room, or maybe just a human-like outline, which becomes a glowing presence of light, who are assisting you and the people who gathered for the session.

Out of Body Experience (OBE)
A further state of Lucid Sight is, your sight expands to full spherical 360 degrees, and you feel you are in the middle of your head (point of presence), and then, if you are fully centered in your being, you leave your body fully conscious and you feel you're watching like a bee, you feel very small and the room will getting huge, and you will see everything in spherical 360 degree view.

Charles Goldmann wrote in his OBE, Spiritualist Technique: "... one phase of mediumship, which is called 'traveling clairvoyance' is the out of body state. "Where the medium is conscious of leaving the body, and in that state views the surroundings, we use the term 'traveling clairvoyance."

I honestly have to say, that I always faced a deep fear when I reached this state, and I just move a bit out of my head, and slipped immediately back inside in the middle of my head, but I could keep looking nearly 360 degrees. As said, it's a very peaceful state, somehow, as reality is then even more real, more vivid.

Active Using
Well, that's all that is passively meant, above. There are many different intensities to use third-eye in conscious active way.

Visualizing
A lot of teachings of visualization are done today, in meditation circles, OBE interested groups, and now modern management teachings. You manifest with the third-eye, and with the force of the heart and base chakra. If you visualize, you pull astral and etheric energies toward you, where you act as modeler.

Managers:
They visualize actively, and ground themselves with the 1st base chakra to be able estimate the success of the business, then achieve a business and company that flourishes: "Your success is of your own creation". Today managers are kind of half-aware yogis, who manifest things with material energy called money. But often spiritually aware people judge those, who are deep in materialism, but those spirits simply learn to handle energy here, and are often overwhelmed by its usage.

Artists:
They usually perceive more, and control with the third-eye and physical eyes the transformation of the higher-dimensional patterns into matter (the picture). For example, a very intense picture drawn by an artist has a physical appearance, and an astral aspect as well, and if the artist was balanced when he or she drew it, we feel it and it does deeply touch us. One of those cultures that was conscious of this connection was the Egyptian culture with its hieroglyphs, which indeed are more than physical symbols.

Scientists/Engineers:
As partly described in the text about spaceships (discussing conscious and unconscious creation of spacecrafts), scientists act as visualizers too, especially when they have to make theoretical research available for industry. Making a plan, then drawing symbols to make other people aware of to create a physical thing, is mainly based on the ability to transform higher realities into the limited physical reality.

Again, everything we affect, may it be cooking, painting a wall, signing a contract, driving a car or riding a bicycle, has an astral aspect, which is more real than the physical aspect. The connection of both is the secret of every success.

Full activation
The full activation of the third-eye with the kundalini is a major step, which needs to be assisted by a teacher or guru. I'm not especially a follower of guru-ism, but I honestly have to say, without guidance of an experienced embodied teacher or a full-conscious remembrance of a past-life you where received the teaching already, it's not good to do so.

As long as the third-eye is somehow isolated in use, there is less to achieve. For example, the moment you also open other chakras to perceive the subtle reality, you not only get pictures, but feelings and emotion which may help much more to understand these impressions. The same for the active usage, if you work consciously with base-charka (full acceptance of incarnation, fully grounded), and the heart-charka, and the crown as well (acceptance of a higher purpose of your life), you may indeed experience miracles.

Anyway, full activation of the third-eye is connected to the full balance of all other chakras, which is the kundalini, which finally leads to the true enlightenment of an embodied spirit. There is no short-cut possible to being fully balanced in yourself . . .

Using Moon Magic to get you a husband

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Wed, 12 Apr 2006 10:52:00 +0000

How many women do you know who are single, eligible and attractive, yet cannot find themselves a partner, or if they have one, cannot get their partner to propose. Are you one of them? In today's world, there are numerous obstacles to getting hitched. Career-oriented individuals don't find enough time to date, men are happy to stay bachelors, Hollywood stars are legitimising single parent families…

But deep down inside, many of us still cherish the ideal of a happy marriage and a happy family. How can you achieve that and how can feng shui help?

You can try a spot of Moon Magic. The energies of the moon are very powerful. In the old days, Taoist alchemists regularly used a small mirror to reflect the light of the moon while sitting in meditation, energizing their small mirrors into powerful tools. You too can use moon energy to gain happiness and this article will show you how.

THE RITUAL
First you need a small and perfectly round mirror. The circular shape is vital, as it represents the shape of heaven. There should be no sharp angles to the mirror, as these symbolize obstacles and difficulties. The round shape will bring smoothness and happiness in the relationship.

The mirror should also be golden (or at least silver) in color, and it is even better if the mirror is decorated with auspicious symbols of love and good fortune. Lucky symbols to have are the five bats (which indicate luck from the five directions and protection), the double happiness symbol (which signifies a long and lasting marriage) or any one of the eight auspicious objects.

Once you have yourself such a mirror, choose a night when the moon is clear and bright. Moon energy is most powerful when there is a full moon (you can find dates with a full moon by checking with a Chinese calendar or almanac). Be sure that the skies are free of clouds, which allows the moon to be reflected clearly into your mirror.

Hold your mirror out and shine it directly at the moon. Leave your mirror out on a wall or table to absorb the moon energy for at least three hours. Once you feel sufficient moon energy has been captured in your mirror, return your mirror into a small pouch made of silk or brocade.

You should not let anyone but yourself touch your personal magic mirror, as this can obscure the energies of the mirror with other people's energies.

When you have energized your mirror, for the next 15 nights, stand with the moon behind you such that both the moon and your face are reflected in the mirror. You will absorb the radiance and beauty of the moon and the mirror will be filled with your own personal energy.

Once the above is done, wait for the next full moon. This time, repeat the ritual but this time focus your thoughts on the kind of husband or partner you want to seek. If you already have someone in mind, visualize the person and send a silent message to the God of Marriage and let him send the magical moon glow into your mirror.

Your mirror is now ready for use. The next time you meet up with your chosen partner, or when you spot someone you wish for as your partner, position the mirror to let it reflect the face of that person. It is not necessary to expose him to your mirror more than once. Also, be sure you are certain of your feelings before using this ritual, as it is very powerful and can lead to unwanted attention if you yourself are not ready for a serious commitment.

Remember also, do not use this spell frivolously, as if you do, its magic is diminished. It is only when your deliberation is dedicated and strong that moon magic lends an effective helping hand.

Baby Gender Prediction Chart

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Sat, 08 Apr 2006 12:28:00 +0000

Legend states that the Chinese Gender Chart was buried in a royal tomb near Beijing over 700 years ago. The original is allegedly currently in the Institute of Science in Beijing. Rumors have it that this chart is over 80% accurate when used properly but please remember that this chart is for entertainment purposes only. Have fun...!

Woman's age is the Chinese age. The Mother's Age on the gender chart is based on her Chinese Age at time of conception.

Conception Month is the Chinese lunar month. The Month of Conception on the chinese chart needs to be the Chinese Lunar Month.

Once you find these two items, you can cross reference them on the chinese gender chart below to determine the sex of your baby.

Wives tales and myths - Gender prediction Signs of PREGNANCY.
Here are some old wives tales that claim to be able to determine the sex of your baby. You can try some for yourself and see if everyone is predicting the same sex for your baby.

Carrying High, Carrying Low
The way you are carrying during your pregnancy is one of the most oft cited ways of determining the sex of your baby. The general story goes that, if you're carrying low, you're having a boy. If you are carrying high, then you must be having a girl. Science says "NO, NO, NO!" to this: the way you carry is determined by muscle and uterine tone as well as the position of your baby. But who's to say that boys don't like being lower in their mom's stomach while girls prefer a view from the top?

What Your Urine Says
This next test to determine a baby's sex may not be for everyone, although it is very simple. Just take a sample of your urine and mix it with Drano. Depending on the color change of your urine, you will have a boy or a girl. Unfortunately, there is no consensus on what color equals which sex. So, if you do decided to try this and your urine turns bluish yellow, brownish, brown, black or blue you will be having a boy. If your urine looks more greenish brown, green, blue or doesn't change at all, then you're having a girl. But be warned: if you decide to do this test, there could be some pretty harsh fumes produced - not to mention the possibility of an explosion!.

Heartbeats
One belief that has been around for some time, and even had some acceptance in the medical community at one point, is that the fetal heartbeat differs for boys and girls. If you're having a girl, then the fetal heart rate will be above 140. A boy will have a heart rate below 140. However, that pesky science has reared its little head again to say that this is complete fiction. A baby's heart rate is not affected by its sex until it is born, when a girl's heart rate will increase considerably compared with boys during labor.

Craving Something…Sweet?
Many people believe that your cravings are caused by the sex of your baby. So, if you can't get enough chocolate, you could be having a girl. Does the idea of drinking straight lemon juice sound delicious to you? Then those sour cravings are a result of the little boy inside of you. However, if you go by the scientists, then some of them will claim that you're not even having cravings because cravings just don't exist.

Weight Gain
Thankfully, this one doesn't refer to your weight gain. The belief is that, if your husband puts on weight during your pregnancy, then you will be having a girl. If he doesn't put on a pound, then you're carrying a boy.

Is Her Face Round and Full?
Some say that the shape and fullness of your face during pregnancy can indicate your baby's sex. Every woman gains weight differently during pregnancy, and every woman experiences different skin changes. If people tell you that because your face is round and rosy you are having a girl, they might be right - but it's just as likely that they are wrong!

At-Home Tests
. Here's a test that you can do next time you change or get out of the bath. Look in the mirror at your breasts. If the right one is larger, you're having a boy! A larger left breast indicates a girl (if they're the same size, does that mean you're having one of each?).

· Hold a pendant over your hand. If the necklace swings back and forth, you're having a boy. If it is more of a circular motion, then it's a girl. This can also be done by suspending a ring on a string above your belly.

· Do you have acne? Some believe that getting acne during your pregnancy indicates you're carrying a girl. Maybe the acne is caused by twice the amount of female hormones?

· Pick up a key. If you've picked it up by the thinner end, you're having a girl. Picking it up by the bottom, rounder part means a boy is on the way. Did you pick it up by the middle? Then congratulations! You're having twins!

· Ask yourself what you think you're having. In a study that asked women with no previous knowledge about their baby's sex, the moms-to-be correctly guessed the sex of their baby 71% of the time.

Other Pregnancy Beliefs
· If you hold your arms above your head, your baby's umbilical cord will get wrapped around its head and choke it. This myth may have a spiritual basis or it may have been a way to keep women from doing anything when they were pregnant (perhaps the myth was created by an overworked mother?). However, if your baby gets caught up in its umbilical cord (which happens in about a 1/3 of births) it is because your baby was very fidgety inside of you and moved around a lot, not because of you.

· Similar to this is the belief in Hawaiian tradition that pregnant women should not wear leis. This folktale believed that wearing a lei would cause the umbilical cord to wrap around the baby's head and choke it. Nowadays, most people recognize that this folktale is a little over-the-top.

· A pregnant woman should not take baths. This myth is routed in the belief that water can get into the vagina and thereby introduce bacteria to the baby. Scientists have proven that water does not enter a woman's vagina during a bath. In fact, baths will probably help pregnant women feel better by helping them relax.

Sleeping Position Reveal Innermost Desires.

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Wed, 05 Apr 2006 08:31:00 +0000

How you sleep says more about you than you realize - your dreams, your hopes, and most of all your yearning for loving and touching. How you sleep reveals what you are really looking for in a soul mate. Remember that often what we feel and what we think we want may be quite the opposite of what our inner consciousness wants. Here we highlight the six most common sleeping postures - check these out and see what your sleeping position is telling you about what you really want in a guy… or a gal.

THE BABY
This is the foetus position, when one sleeps curled up like a baby in the womb. The hands can be held together at the neck or between the legs. This is reportedly the most common sleep position and is also indicative of the most normal type personality. Such men and women are generally secure and well-balanced individuals.

FOR HER : Women who sleep like a baby in the womb are described as being incredibly loving and sweet. They are very tough ladies who run their homes with firm hands, but they are also warm and sensitive individuals. Women who sleep like babies tend to be shy and do not trust others easily. They like men who are sensitive and caring of others. Not for them the arrogant, know-it-all type of guy. They value humility, decency and honesty. If you are the flamboyant, show-off type, you can forget about this lady. She has little time for the dramatic and grand flourish.

FOR HIM : Men who sleep like a baby just love being mothered. In a sense, they have never grown up, so they like “big mama”. If you tend to be on the plump side, you will appeal to his need for the warmth of the womb. He likes women who can take charge of situations and he will seldom allow himself to be unfaithful. To him, the family unit offers an irresistible sense of well-being. So such men usually make faithful husbands

THE ROMANTIC
These people sleep on their stomachs with their hands in the surrender position flat on the bed. Their heads can be turned to the left or right. They rest easy and are pretty well balanced. Their sleep posture suggests they are in dreamland, visualizing the scenes that make their hearts sing and their eyes smile with joyousness.

FOR HER : Women who sleep this way are incurable romantics. They dream always of the knight in shining armour and are seldom disappointed, even when their knight turns out to be less than expected. This is because they are eternal optimists - always ready for the next guy that will come into their life and sweep them off their feet. They can be practical and down-to-earth, but they know they want a romantic to share their life. Married women who sleep this way are usually very much in love with their spouses. This is a happy sleep posture.

FOR HIM : Men who sleep on their stomachs will usually make excellent husband material. They are romantic, but also down-to-earth and practical. They usually fall for women who are sweet and non-intimidating - preferring the ladylike types to the flirtatious or forward sirens. In love, they like to take their time and it is a bad idea to hurry them into marriage.

THE WILD THING
This is the freedom personified sleep posture, with both legs and hands flung out in wild abandonment. It is an indication of their free spirit. Here is a person who does not feel shackled either by society’s norms or their own cultural or family restrictions. Such people are usually adventurous and courageous. But they can also be brash and thin-skinned. They do not take kindly to criticism.

FOR HER : Women who sleep with abandonment tend to be very adventurous and they are willing to give everything a chance. They make good friends and are often generous with their time and money. Many men will find them irresistible and respond easily to their love of life and their non-judgmental outlook. They are free spirits not bound by convention.

FOR HIM : Men who sleep this way have a secret yearning to run away and do their own thing. Many often do - sail around the world, climb Mount Everest or swim the English Channel. They respond to women who share their appreciation of the environment, and their love of adventure and travel. Men who sleep this way make wonderful friends and in their more mature years are incredibly reassuring to have around.

THE STRAITJACKET
Lying by one’s side with both arms by the side, like a log. This is a posture of inner constraint and invisible chains binding you to a set of principles. You do not feel free and your psyche is ruled by powerful subconscious rules, which may be cultural, religious or traditional. Such people are generally quiet and reserved and they often set the moral high ground for others.

FOR HER : This is a sleep position that is suggestive of someone very decorous and correct in the way they interact with others. Women who sleep this way are usually afraid to take risks in love and are reluctant to be adventurous. They need a man who is strong enough to reassure their hidden fears. Usually they respond to a father figure - someone used to authority and leadership. Women who sleep this way tend to trust people easily and may be naïve to the point of being gullible. When in love, they can be very “needy”, often clinging to their loved one. So the men in their lives could find them too possessive. Learn to relax and let go of the tension. You will be more successful in your love life then.

FOR HIM : The guy who sleeps this way has probably been through some kind of regimental discipline - so he could be from the army or from a strict private school. His life is well ordered and he finds comfort in tradition and the norms of behavior. Men who sleep this way are usually easy to please, as long as you follow the traditional way of doing things and responding to people. You know what to expect from them. They are drawn to sweet young things who come from sheltered homes. Fussy and aggressive women usually turn them off.

THE SEDUCER
These people sleep on their side with both arms flung out in front of them, resting on a pillow. Their legs are stretched out straight and their faces are seldom buried in the pillow - instead the face is often averted upwards. This is the seductive sleep posture.

FOR HER : Women who sleep this way are the seductress sirens of the sleep spectrum. They are unconscious flirts, often sending out unexpected “come on” gestures, yet seldom making it easy for the man. Such women tend to be enticing and sexy. What they love most is the chase. They do not like men who give up too easily and they love being seduced. Flirt with her if your lady sleeps this way. Pamper her also and play hard to get - all at the same time. If you do not, she could well get bored with you and look for someone more exciting. This lady loves to be surprised and she has a very open mind about a lot of things. But never take her for granted, because then she will simply run away.

FOR HIM : Men who sleep this way tend to be rather effeminate and could prefer the company of their own gender. If they do not, then it is likely they are drawn to women who are bossy, and who take a leading role in their love life. Seductress type men are not necessarily the romantic or flirtatious type, but they are very touchy, feely types. They like the foreplay better than the real thing, but they prefer women who initiate the big moves.

THE SOCIALITE
These people sleep on their sides with both arms resting lightly by their side, and their heads resting gently on the pillow. All through the night, they will maintain this position of sleep, and in the mornings, they awaken with hair pretty much in place. This is often the sleep position of the narcissistic person.

FOR HER : She is easy-going and very sociable. Women who sleep this way get along with most people and are usually very popular. Such women however tend to be too trusting so they often fall for the wrong kind of guy and allow themselves to be taken advantage of. They prefer good-looking men. Appearances are important to them

FOR HIM : This can be described as the gregarious male - flamboyant, charming and sociable. They love glamorous women and can often be depended upon to be at all the fun parties. They move easily with the in-crowd. Men who sleep with on their sides with arms pressed close to their bodies also tend to be egotistical and have a rather inflated view of themselves. They will usually go for the woman who is a suitable trophy for their social climbing ambitions.

COUPLES WHO SLEEP FACING EACH OTHER
are said to reflect their mutual respect for each other. These are two independent individuals, probably with their own careers. This is the sleep of the power couple. If they are covered by a single duvet cover or blanket, it shows a greater closeness between them. If they sleep each with their own blankets, it indicates distinct and separate lives..

WHEN COUPLES SLEEP CLOSE TOGETHER
on their stomachs, it suggests a depth of relationship between the two. When the woman sleeps this way facing her spouse it suggests a subconscious dependence on him. If he sleeps with his arm over her back, he is manifesting possessiveness

Your Fortune at Birth

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Sun, 02 Apr 2006 20:02:00 +0000

From the Imperial Tung Shu comes this incredible poem of the four seasons ascribed to the legendary Yellow Emperor. From the poem can be obtained general indications of what life holds in store for a newborn baby. It is believed that depending on your season of birth, your life can be full of burdens or full of abundance. It all depends on which part of the Emperor's body you were born on. We present here brief predictive details of the four seasons poem for those wishing to investigate how, and at what stage of their life, they will enjoy the patronage and goodwill of the Emperor.

The incredible Chinese Tung Shu is filled with the most fascinating esoteric information relating to destiny analysis, as well as the meanings of signs, marks and symbols. One of the more tantalizing chapters relate to making a quick and general forecast of a person's life destiny, based on the seat assigned to us when we are born. This is based on the season of one's birth, as well as the time of birth i.e. the exact time when the baby is expelled or removed from the mother's womb.

Thus you first need to determine the season of birth - spring, summer, autumn or winter. The season of spring would be March, April and May; the season of summer would be June, July and August; the season of autumn would be September, October and November; while the season of winter would be December, January and February.

Next, you will need to determine your hour of birth based on the 12 earthly branches. This divides a 24-hour day into twelve time segments of two hours each, with each time segment representing one of the Chinese astrological animals. With these two pieces of information, you then need to look at the illustrations of the Yellow Emperor wearing the robes of the seasons - green robes for the spring, red robes for the summer, white robes for the fall and blue robes for the winter.

Look at the Emperor that corresponds with your season of birth, then locate on which part of the Emperor you were born based on your time of birth. Note from the time chart of the twelve time segments that each two-hour period has a special name. Locate the hour name on the Emperor's body and then check against the meaning given. For example, if your hour pillar is Mao in the season of summer, you look for the illustration of the Emperor in the summer season, locate where your hour name is located on his body and then read the meaning given under summer.

Use the table and diagram here to determine on which part of the Emperor you were born, then refer to the descriptions below to find your destiny.

The Power of OM

noreply@blogger.com (Natasha) — Sat, 01 Apr 2006 17:40:00 +0000

Every vibration has a corresponding sound and everything in the universe has a vibration and thus a sound. Each atom, molecule, cell, object, group of objects, even the entire universe, has its own collection of vibrations and unique sound.

When you chant a mantra, you merge with the sound vibration and become at one with the energy wavelength of the object of your mantra. Mantra chanting makes you at one with everyone, everywhere who is chanting that mantra and with everyone who has ever chanted the mantra. All the saints who have ever reached enlightenment through the technique of chanting that mantra connect with you as you connect with the vibration of the mantra. You merge with their essence which has been purified and is holy and you become pure and holy because that divine level of existence vibrates only with holiness, peace, and bliss.

By chanting a mantra, your cells, molecules, atoms, and sub-atomic particles all vibrate in the same wavelength as the mantra. Once attuned with this vibration you connect with everything resonating on that plane of existence. It’s like tuning a radio. At first you may get static, but once you are in the right frequency your reception is perfect. Om is the universal sound. It is within every word and within everything. So when you chant Om, you merge with all energy and all forms, from the sub-atomic to the universal, from the most gross to the most divine. And when you are tuned in perfectly, you will receive holy frequencies clearly and merge and emerge at one with the source of all and live happily ever after.

Om (also written Aum) is the oldest and most sacred sound found in yoga, Hinduism and Buddhism. Not only does Om represent the entire universe, known as Brahman, it is also said to be the source of all creation. Om represents all time: past, present, and future; and is beyond time itself. Om represents the eternal oneness of all that is, and thus represents the ultimate goal of yoga: to become unified in body, mind and spirit.

Chanting the mantra Om is perhaps the oldest of yoga’s spiritual practices. In the Mandukya Upanishad we find this beautiful passage: “The body is the bow, Om is an the arrow, the arrow’s tip is the focused mind, and the ultimate Mystery is the target.” Thus, meditating on Om is used to guide one to discovering the higher Self, and the true nature of the universe. The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali instructs one in contemplating the meaning of Om as a direct path to enlightenment. “The repetition of the sound of Om, along with a deep contemplation of the meaning of what it represents, brings both the realization of the individual Self (Atman) and the removal of obstacles that normally block this realization” (Yoga Sutras 1.27-1.29).

Om is said to be the essence of all mantras, and is used as the mula-mantra, the root and beginning of most mantras. Om is the bija (seed) mantra of the sixth chakra or third eye and chanting Om activates and opens this energy center. Om is also known as the adi-bija, the primary seed mantra. Om is used within sacred chants to increase their power and potency as well as to draw the practitioner into a deep internal state.

It is very important when repeating Om to pronounce the "O" sound correctly. In Sanskrit, the sound "O" is a diphthong-- a subtle speech sound that begins with one vowel and changes to another vowel within the same syllable. This “O” sound begins with an “A” sound as in “law” and ends with a “U” sound as in “put.” When these two vowel sounds are combined in this diphthong, it produces a single, pure vowel sound. Thus, when you pronounce Om it should sound like “home” without the beginning “h” sound. When pronouncing Om the sound should emanate from the navel, with a deep and harmonious vibration, and gradually rises upwards to resonate in the nostrils.

Though indivisible, Om has four subtle sounds that correspond to four levels of consciousness. The first sound of "A" represents Vaishvanara, the conscious waking state. The second sound of "U" represents Taijasa, the subtle, unconscious dream state. The third sound of "M" represents the Prajna, the casual, subconscious deep sleep state. The fourth sound is the silence that follows the sound of Om which represents Turiya, the absolute consciousness that illumines and pervades the three prior states.

The Power of Chanting Om
The chanting of Om drives away all worldly thoughts and removes distraction and infuses new vigour in the body. When you feel depressed, chant Om fifty times and you will be filled with new vigour and strength. The chanting of Om is a powerful tonic. When you chant Om, you feel you are the pure, all pervading light and consciousness. Those who chant Om will have a powerful, sweet voice. Whenever you take a stroll, you can chant Om. You can also sing Om in a beautiful way. The rythmic pronunciation of Om makes the mind serene and pointed, and infuses the spiritual qualifications which ensure self-realization. Those who do meditation of Om daily will get tremendous power. They will have lustre in their eyes and faces.

Meditating/Chanting on OM
Retire to a quite place, sit down, close your eyes and completely relax your muscles and nerves. Concentrate on the space between your eyebrows and quieten and silence the conscious mind. Begin to repeat "Om" mentally or aloud while associating the ideas of infinity, eternity, immortality, etc. When chanting Om, equal measure should be given to both the “O” and the “M” sounds, i.e. “oooommmm” and not “oommmmmm” or “oooooomm.” The chanting of Om should be easy and natural, without strain. Usually when Om is chanted out loud it is long and when chanted mentally is it short, but experiment and do what feels most comfortable for you. You must repeat Om with the feeling that you are the infinite and all-pervading. Mere repetition of Om will not bring the desired result. Keep the meaning of Om always at heart. Feal Om. Feel that you are the pure, perfect, all-knowing, eternal, free. Feel that you are absolute consciousness and the infinite, unchanging existance. Every part of your body should powerfully vibrate with these ideas. This feeling should be kept up all day long. Practice regularly and steadily with sincerity, faith, perseverance and enthusiasm in the morning, midday and evening.If using Om as a mantra meditation you may wish to use a mala to count repetitions of 108.
