For this Sunday, February 5th, the focus for
our meditation will be on Balance. Nothing in nature is static. We are surrounded by an ocean of minute
perturbations and changes that continually occur around and within us. Externally, there are energy fluctuations
that emanate from the omnipresent movement of the planets. Internally, the physiological mechanism of
homeostasis is making constant adjustments to heart rate, respiration, blood
pressure, and the myriad electrical and chemical events that keep our body
alive. It is only in death that we experience
a physical state of stillness. Life,
therefore, requires us to keep up with a host of variations to maintain a state
of health. Our nation and its history
mirror this natural phenomenon. The
pendulum is always in flux as society and the policies it relies on for order
change. Those changes necessitate that
how things were before will not remain the same. Eventually, over time, the system finds a Balancing
point, but at least initially it may seem that those vacillations are too far
to one extreme or the other. And they
may be, but inevitably they return to a more moderate state that allows for
greater stability. As we watch the
changes taking place in our nation let us find reassurance in the knowledge
that history shows extremes are seldom tolerated for long. Inevitably the system self-corrects and Balance
is restored. The key is in recognizing
that Balance does not mean the cessation of these changes; we simply
become more adept at adjusting to them.
This week in our prayer and meditation time let us ask for divine
assistance in finding greater Balance in our life and for our
nation. May we come to appreciate the
healthy evolution that occurs with adaptation and have confidence that Balance
will certainly be restored.
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 what do I feel in my body when I am able to
adapt to changes around me in order to maintain a sense of Balance? How does it feel in my body when I recognize change
represents the natural order and that Balance
requires constant evolution? 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.
