Open to the Infinite within and around you, Honor your true innocence, and Surround yourself with love

In class yesterday, we continued hearing from Matt Kahn's book, Whatever Arises Love That.  Which basically means whatever arises within you, based on what shows up in your life, hold yourself in LOVE and/or let yourself be held by LOVE (if you are not feeling it within yourself to be able to do the holding).

We talked about slowing the breath as a tool to expand our physical, emotional, and mental bodies to be able to hold whatever is going on within and around us so we can choose a more skillful or helpful response to ourselves or the one in front of us who may be stuck in their own shadow.  As we slow the breath and remember the large, expansive container of energy and light that we are, we can more easefully, hold whatever challenge or shadow we are faced with.  And while first holding and validating what is so, honoring whatever feeling or circumstance arises, also remember the greater holding of Mother Earth, Spirit, the Divine, God.

3HO is doing a beautiful 40 day sadhana which is a wonderful tool to remind us of the holding of the divine around and especially within us.  This is a Meditation for Elevation, Connection & Joy.
Translation of the mantra, Ang Sang Wahe Guru:  "the dynamic loving energy of the infinite is dancing in every limb and every cell of our being."  This mantra "eliminates loneliness from our hearts and fills every cell of our bodies up with the awareness and the presence of Love."

Sending all love and light to you!

May we all be happy, healthy, and free from suffering.
May we all be fed, may we all be healed, may we all know we are loved.
May we know peace in our hearts, peace in our homes, and peace in the world.

Namaste,
