Meditation Instructions for Sun., Nov. 10, 2013

For this Sunday, November 10th, the focus for our meditation will be on Equanimity.  When someone has been in the presence of a deeply spiritual person they often are described as having felt a powerful sense of calm, serenity, and peacefulness emanating from them.  The Equanimity they exude embraces everyone in their immediate vicinity and can alter how others around them subsequently feel.  There is a steadiness and evenness to their composure in which they exhibit neither the extreme highs nor lows others may experience.  For many of us, achieving this state of energetic homeostasis can at times seem out of reach.  A regular meditation and prayer practice is thought to help achieve that sense of balance.  This week let us use our meditation time to ask for assistance in attaining a deeply-rooted feeling of Equanimity that will help buffer us against the turbulence of everyday life.  Through a stronger sense of Equanimity may we become beacons of calm and serenity in our world and ultimately have a more positive impact on those around us.

In our efforts this week let us also continue to use the energy of our prayers and meditation to amplify the light that covers and fills this nation.  As we perform our meditation this week let us begin by re-energizing the brilliance and power of the light we create.  Just as before, 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 experienced a deep calm and serenity associated with Equanimity?  How does it feel in my body when I realize I am in the presence of the profound peacefulness of Equanimity?  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.
