Meditation Instructions for Sun., April 29, 2012

For this Sunday, April 29th, the focus for our meditation will be on Relationship.  No matter what one’s position in life everyone experiences Relationship.  Even someone in monastic seclusion may be cloistered from contact with other people but still has a Relationship with God.  In sum, we are social beings, and Relationship is an important aspect of who we are.  In establishing Relationships sometimes we eagerly seek them out, and other times we find ourselves snagged by complicated tangles that we wish we could eliminate.  There are Relationships that seem effortless and others that demand enough effort that we question whether we want them to continue.  Relationship is a necessary part of life and may be either instrumental in helping us become all that we are trying to be, or it may feel like a hindrance that blocks our way.  In our meditation this week let us consider the Relationships we have in our life.  Do we find our connections to others serve as positive influences?  Are there changes in our Relationships that may be needed if we are to progress beyond where we are presently?  Let us ask in our prayer and meditation that we be guided as to the Relationships that serve us and those that hold us back.

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. 

Ask yourself how does it feel in my body when I cherish the Relationships I have with others?  What does it feel like when I find myself in a Relationship that makes me a better person? Then send the energy and intention of that feeling to the nation.

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