Today: Apply your creative powers efficiently – from the I Ching
Prepare yourself for leadership by storing up and honing your creative powers for a clear and coherent entry onto the public stage rather than unleashing them in a disorganized way. Facing certain opposition, remain uniquely yourself, unwavering in your purpose, yet not reactive to the opposition. Attention to detail with many small victories will realize your goals more completely than sweeping opposition to your adversaries.

Today: Contemplate your divine nature – from the I Ching
Be like water. Assume the shape that flows best in the circumstance. Do not be caught up in your reactive tendencies. They can hold you in your own personal prison. Contemplate on divine nature, becoming that instead, for all to witness and be inspired.

Don’t worry about the future
Last night my wife and I watched an interesting movie that has a resonance with what is happening.
In class last night we did a meditation about this.
Meditation: 881026 Removing Fear of the Future
The meditation removes fear of the future by freeing us of the endless mental contrivances we construct in order to avoid fear and pain.
The movie is The 100 Year Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared.
The man is portrayed in various stages of a very colorful and eventful life. He lives by his mother’s dying admonition not to worry about the future. She said that worry will always make things worse. She suffered greatly, even in dying, but knew the secret of happiness, even if she never realized it in her life. She said to Allan, her son (the now 100 year old man) it always is what it is, and will always be what it will be. He took her up on that, which made all the difference. He led a happy and charmed life. Even at 100, he wasn’t finished.
The story is similar to Forrest Gump. He also led a charmed life. Forrest’s secret was innocence. Allan’s was living in the moment, flowing like water. Both were lucky, seemingly making their own luck. Both were free of fear of the future.
Today: Grace – from the I Ching
We can choose external brilliance or inner simplicity. The latter transcends the ornamental and leads to a much brighter fire through all it inspires.

Today: Coming out of stagnation and decay – from the I Ching
It is a time of stagnation and decay. In time, however, that will change. A new leader by concensus is required to inspire positive movement. That job will face resistance, beset at first by many difficulties. With caution and the enlistment of new allies the movement will gain momentum and find success in unity.

Recap: Meditation and Sat Nam Rasayan® Healing Workshop with Hari Nam Singh 03/12/2017- “Holding Together”
We held a Meditation and Sat Nam Rasayan® Healing Workshop with Hari Nam Singh at the Healing Heart Center in Hollywood. The topic of the workshop was “Holding Together”. Much of the current conflict and chaos that we see in the world can be attributed to the denial of self and the individual’s separation from the self. That phenomenon extends to one’s local environment, where the group psyche is affected in the same way, notably by willful participation in gangs and cults.. Healing the self can be extended to healing the community.
We focused on living above denial and our awareness of God in us.
Meditations: NM0394 – Live above denial 31 min.
NM0415 – Karma and Dharma 31 min
We healed the relation with the soul body from the Third and fourth chakras.
Next workshop: Engaging the self with your environment with prana.
