For this Sunday, December 2nd, the focus for our meditation
will be on Philanthropy. One of my favorite things about this
end-of-year holiday season is how it can have the magical effect of opening
people’s hearts toward others. Stories abound
of people playing “Secret Santa” by paying off a family’s department store layaway
account in time for presents to appear beneath their tree. This week several touching stories have gone
viral regarding a New York City police officer who purchased boots for a barefoot
homeless man and an anonymous benefactor who visited devastated neighborhoods
in New Jersey and New York and handed out hundred-dollar bills to recovering
residents. These examples of Philanthropy reflect the best of the
human spirit and also serve to encourage the spread of generosity and a sense
of caring for one’s fellow citizens. As
we enter this holiday season let us use our meditation to help spread the
spirit of Philanthropy across this
nation and permeate the hearts of all.
Additionally, despite our country’s continuing financial struggles let
us not forget the importance of national Philanthropy
to others in need around the globe.
In our efforts this week let us also use the energy of our
prayers and meditation to amplify the light that covers and fills this
nation. As we perform our meditation let
us re-energize the brilliance and power of the light we create. Begin by forming a concentrated ball of light
that is so bright it is almost impossible to look directly at it. Raise this sphere of light up high over the
nation and then let its rays cascade down to create a solid, impenetrable dome
of light that completely covers every inch of our country. From shore to shore and border to border let
the entire continent be filled with this brilliant, dense light that will serve
to magnify the best and highest qualities of our country and the people who
live across its vast lands.
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,
and connect to the circle of others participating in this project.
Ask yourself how do I feel when I have a desire to be Philanthropic toward others? How does it feel in my body when I seek to increase the generosity of my heart and resources through acts of greater Philanthropy? Then send the energy and intention of those feelings 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.
