As we gather and share each other’s knowledge and experiences of love, we bring to All a spirit of Oneness and Love. There is no other way to experience love than by being Love. Therefore, every act of love you bestow upon yourself or another magnifies the love received by All. When you send love to another through prayer, they will receive it.

Find a quiet place; breathe in and out several times in order to relax and release the concerns of the day. In your mind, visualize the person(s) you wish to connect with. Call their name out loud three times while thinking of them. Although it is not necessary to state their name aloud, doing so may help to maintain focus, especially if sending prayers in a group setting. Know you are now connected energetically. Your Spirit knows no bounds when it comes to time, space and place.

As you hold the image of the other person(s) in your mind, visualize a stream of love and light flowing in your upper heart region. Allow it to flow unhindered, feeling gratitude for having known them. You can thank them for the good times you have experienced together and you can thank them for the hard lessons you learned from each other. You can also apologize for any hurt you have caused them.

As you move through your day, take some time to look at those around you.  Imagine what their lives have been like up to the moment you see them.  What have they experienced?  What are they feeling?  Are they missing someone?   Are they in need of connection or closure? 
One of the most beautiful things about being human is the fact that, even though there are 7 billion of you, you each exist in your own small (by comparison) reality…..a beautiful and enriching world of your own creation.  Taking a short pause and stepping into someone else’s world is the key to understanding humanity.  Are you up to the challenge? ~ Creator

Acceptance is one of the most powerful spiritual tools you can use, as it is the antidote to resistance, judgment and impatience. Faith and trust are what lead to acceptance, and once you can shift into the idea that everything is always unfolding as is divinely perfect, you will naturally begin to experience the magical elements that are created from acceptance which are peace, grace and ease. ~Archangel Gabriel

By Wes Annac, Culture of Awareness

I’d like to introduce a new writing series entitled The Teachers Speak. Here, we’ll explore what various well-known spiritual figures have said about an array of subjects, including God, enlightenment, the spiritual path and the different ways we all travel it.

I’ve written reports like this before, but the intention is to share them more regularly with more diverse material. In doing so, we can discuss the similarities and dissimilarities between what various spiritual figures say while exploring the philosophical and spiritual meaning of their words.

It seems appropriate for this first article to share guidance from Jiddu Krishnamurti, a respected spiritual teacher who encouraged liberation from the distractions, desires and habits of the mind.

As we’ll learn here, the mind will go to any extent to reinforce its existence (thus reinforcing our existence as humans who are separate from the All), but passive awareness of everything we think, feel and experience can keep us from being susceptible to the mind’s conditioning.

God said:

I hear you ask me in many ways, with or without words, ask:

“Dear God, please tell us what is most important for us to know about how to serve You. How do we serve You and reveal You to all who long with all their hearts to serve You, and all as well who do not as yet long to serve You?"

Dear Ones, you serve Me and the world very well when you enjoy this life on Earth. Enjoy everything, every aspect of life, even those aspects you would not choose. Of course, you do not possibly know how you can enjoy that which you do not personally welcome. No one expects you to jump for joy when you feel loss of a loved one or any heartache.

Nor are you to pretend you are brave.

First, cry as you must to express your heartbreak.

Second, and last, remind yourself, that you are living life on Earth, and you are being tempered the same way steel is tempered.

Hear Me out:

The tempering that life gives you makes you strong so that you will become responsible and capable of letting go of boundaries. Without this tempering, how and why would you ever let go of the boundaries of the past when they give you comfort and ease?

In addition, this tempering that life gives you also makes you full of evolving understanding of others. This understanding is a gift to you and all those around you, for, gradually, you attain greater heights that others will rise to. Whether consciously or unconsciously, others' lives will grasp something of your heightened consciousness, and it becomes theirs as well.
