Who is really in charge?  Is it you as a spiritual being or is it your head?

Most of the time, the head thinks it is.  Yes, the head/mind can do amazing things - from adding 2+2 to constructing a space rocket.  But the head/mind can also crucify you if you allow it.  Just try letting it sort out some complicated emotional dilemma.  The head/mind knows how to make us suffer.  You know what I'm talking about.  The head makes a good servant but a poor master.

For a long time, spiritual seekers have recognised this.  They found that meditation is a means of stilling and quietening the mind.  Some meditation techniques seem to work better than others.  But meditation cannot be a mental process - that would be like the problem (the mind) trying to sort out the problem (itself).

Here is something you can try.  It involves moving your conscious awareness out of the head and into the heart.  The conscious awareness is the vehicle of our spiritual being.

Find a quiet place.  It is probably better to lie down to start with.

Listen to the beat of your heart.  Then, move the conscious awareness from listening to the heartbeat to actually feeling the beating heart.  This is, in effect, stating the intent of feeling and being in the flow of Love which comes through the heart.

The heart responds to a flow of Love, Compassion and acceptance of the Self.

FIRST MANTRA - METATRONS CUBE:

Metatron's Cube is the totality of man within the spectra of Life.

Explanation for this Mantra on Stepping Stones page.

 

SECOND MANTRA:

I love and respect myself as God's Source loves and respects me.  I love and accept myself as God's Source loves and accepts me.

 

THIRD MANTRA:

I am a beautiful, beautiful Being.  I am a Being of Love.  I am a Being of Light.  I am a Being of Joy.  I am beautiful.

 

Repeat one of the mantras given above.

With your conscious awareness, feel the response of your second chakra - there is an energetic link between the second chakra (creative centre) and the heart.  Visualise an infinity symbol weaving around the heart and second chakra, enclosing and strengthening them.

Say the mantra again.

Visualise your whole system being flushed with Unconditional Love and ask Love to dissolve all distress, dicomfort, dis-ease, disharmony, fear, anger and resentment from your being (find your own words as you need them).

Say the Metatron's Cube mantra with the intent that a flow of Love, Light  and Healing will pass through all dimensions of the Self.

Do this as often as you can and you will begin to feel a cocoon of Light Energy building around you.

Please do not give up after the first attempt.  The very fact that you are willing to try this is an indication (to you) that the old ways are not working and that you have an awareness that the flow of Love is indeed the Truth of your being.
