Meditation Instructions for Sun., Nov. 13, 2011

For this Sunday, November 13th, the focus for our meditation will be on Inquisitiveness. How is it that many of us come to decide our spiritual beliefs? Do we acquire most of what we believe we know from formal religious training (e.g., Catechism or Bible school) we receive when we are young? Or for some, perhaps we begin to explore alternative belief systems when we get older and develop the Inquisitiveness to find out for ourselves what other faiths and practices contain. In developing our spiritual foundation we have many choices before us. Our focus for this week’s meditation is to consider whether we want to move outside the passive acceptance of dogma handed down to us by others. Instead, we may want to use our Inquisitiveness to explore other faiths and read first-hand for ourselves the texts that serve as the basis for other religions rather than accept what others say about them. In addition, we may want to develop our own method of “knowing” in order to determine what most genuinely resonates with us in gaining an understanding of the nature of the divine world around us. In our meditation this week let us consider whether there are ways we would like to be more Inquisitive in gathering our spiritual wisdom.

Please follow the same practice as before: Get centered in your body, ask to bring in your guides and others who are there to assist us, connect to the circle of others participating in this project, and create the brilliant star-like light over the nation. Extend blue rays from the center of this light to the nation's four borders and then connect to the grid or matrix that extends from the circle. In our efforts this week let us also consider connecting our energy to the vast etheric network that forms the Internet.

Ask yourself how does it feel in my body when I have a spirit of Inquisitiveness? What does it feel like when I am Inquisitive and want to learn more about a topic? Then send the energy and intention of that feeling to the grid for the nation.

Be sure to disconnect from the circle at the end and express thanks for those who have helped us in this effort.
