For this Sunday, June 30th, the focus for our meditation will be on Freedom. Over the years, the way our nation celebrates the Independence Day, or July 4th, holiday seems increasingly to have more to do with cookouts and fireworks than the original occasion. On July 4, 1776 our nation adopted the Declaration of Independence, a foundational document for our country declaring its Freedom from British rule. The Freedom we gained that day set our country on a path that eventually led it to become one of the world’s greatest nations through the dedication, sacrifice and toil of its citizens. While our country remains far from perfect, the tenet of Freedom on which it was founded is something people too easily take for granted. This week in our prayer and meditation let us consider the Freedom granted to us as citizens of this nation. Let us think about the Freedoms for which we are most grateful and ask that our country continue to honor the importance of maintaining those privileges for all.
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 appreciate the Freedom that citizenship of this country provides? How does it feel in my body when I recognize the importance of Freedom for this nation? 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.
