Transformations!

Digesting Ama! May 20, 2008 My Dear Ones, Ama--today's newsletter is not about the revered Indian woman saint! Her name is spelled Amma. Rather it is about a phenomenon that we all face--digestion of Life in every category. Ama is a concept from Ayurvedic Medicine--that ancient healing art that addresses all levels of human existence, which was codified from antiquity in the Hindu Vedas or scriptures, and that is still so successfully practiced today. This form of medicine goes hand in hand with the practice of yoga because it addresses all the physical, mental and energetic levels, and even prescribes various asanas (yogic body postures) and mantras (sacred sound currents) as some of its remedies! According to the website, Ayurveda for You, Ama is undigested material that originates from improperly digested toxic particles that clog the channels in your body. Some of these channels are physical and include the intestines, lymphatic system, arteries and veins, capillaries, and genitourinary tract. Others are nonphysical channels called nadis through which your energy flows. Ama toxicity accumulates wherever there is a weakness in the body, and this will result in disease. When giving Transformation Energy Healing sessions over the years, I have found that if a person is healthy, their energy flows through their aura on the outside of their body, as well as it flows through the inside of their body through "nadis," those meridian- like energy channels, and it affects the various frequencies generated by physical structures such as organs and cells. This free-flowing healthy energy appears as very bright white/gold Light that moves faster than the speed of light! It appears to embody the matrix, or "command central" for the body's healthy operation, and it also seems to contain all the person's intelligent functions, processing and memories as well, that are then picked up by the brain's amazing apparatus as called upon. So, have you recognized that when something frightening, hurtful, abusive, shocking, shattering, physically traumatizing, etc. occurs, we actually hold our breath, tense our muscles, feel jangled or separated, and so on? This might result from either a one time event or something that repeats over time--such as a parent usually dismissing a child. When this happens, one's energy actually slows down or is completely halted, and it forms a slow- moving or "stuck" mass of ama, that is often stored in a particular location in the body! Now, if that destructive event has occurred either earlier in this lifetime or in past lifetimes, and that actual energetic ama has not been "digested" or transformed, healed, integrated, etc., it stays stuck or frozen in the energy system. When working with someone, or perhaps their entering a meditatively receptive state on their own, they can actually perceive that stuck energy's color--usually dark or red (anger), have an emotional and/or physical feeling from it, and one may even discover its words, such as "I am really, really scared of being left out!" And that slowed ama energy can actually lodge in the cells in a particular location in the body--perhaps in a genetically weak area, to thereby diminish its healthy frequency and lead to its malfunction that we call disease. That's because this energy "blob" or virus-like program is actually the stuff of the stored emotions and story of that event. So, once lodged in the system, the stuff of those fears, hurts, separations, etc. can then leak into one's larger vibrational system, creating a similar subliminal perspective that can overshadow one's behavior or outlook, seeming to "come out of nowhere," such as anxiety, anger, depression, fear, insecurity, and on, and on. And when an event that is similar to the one that originated this stuck energy pattern occurs, it is likely to explode all that toxicity of those stored emotions and reactions, such as fear, anger, dismay, shock, etc. into one's system in a really big way! The reaction can take one over and be way out of proportion to the actual event! Yikes! So, unless this energy patch is healed, meaning that it is opened up to release the original pain--often "sitting" with it while re-experiencing its intense feelings for a while, so that the greater healthy, fast flowing healing energy can flush out the ama and bring it back into free-flowing, vibrational movement--digest it, it will continue to fester, even through lifetimes! Healing can occur through lancing this ama and "digesting" it with the most constructive energy frequencies of: mantra; asanas, which are particular configurations of the nadis of the body and pumping high frequency energy through them; with the assistance of an energy healer; personally reconciling that situation by "figuring it out"; support through love and care; true and total forgiveness of the action or perpetrator (although this doesn't let the "perp" off the hook because the Universe provides Its own justice, yet the "victim" or "healee" remains totally unattached to retribution); awareness and mental discipline to change one's "destructive" habits over time; and so on. Or use a good combination of all these as "digestive" techniques on one's ama. To be free of ama is to be a complete free-agent of the Universe, living at every moment at the behest of those highest creative directions that are absolutely perfect actions in the moment! This happens in total ease, with no stress. And this is in direct contrast to living a life that is bound up in habitual reactions that erupt from old, stuck ama! The healing path of the Kundalini Yoga is living that ama digesting process. So, if when you begin your practice of KY, you find that once you heal one bunch of ama, another pops up in line to be healed, be encouraged! This powerful practice leads to quick and constant ama transformation. So just Keep Up and ride the wave of healing! The result of transformation then is that as those squirrelly, stuck energies are digested, they reform themselves as depths of refined wisdom and strength in that area of your life that you could not possibly have developed in any other way. You had to have gone through that whole process! That wonderfully digested material then can nourish your depth and your growth in incredible ways--just as well digested food totally nourishes and rebuilds you! So, here we are--back again at living from an "Attitude of Gratitude" for all that the Universe, our Souls have provided for us, no matter the difficulties that were entailed! Finally, peace, coziness, and happiness ensues, no matter what circumstances are flying around! Lots of Love, Siri-Gian If you click here, you will arrive at a page of yogic remedies for digesting a number of different kinds of ama energies.

THAT CHRISTMAS FEELING!   December 18, 2007   Did you ever think of what you want for Christmas? That is what you REALLY want for Christmas? Now, I am not talking about any big ticket item, or any results of any relationship, or any favors from anyone. No, I am talking about the emotion or state of being that you imagine you would feel if you came into possession of anyone of those greatly desired objects or occurrences. You know the ones that you hang onto to so tightly, that you hope and long for to give you that special feeling--even if your greatest prayer is for someone else to benefit or be healed. We all do this, don't we? So, instead of holding out hope for the object of our desires to fulfill us with that anticipated feeling, let's just fast forward to the actual feeling that we really want in the end. So now, let's do something a little unusual. Just for a bit, breathe deeply, clear your mind and please focus on that feeling that you are hoping for these things to bring you. Would that be kindness, fulfillment, love, satisfaction, peace, support, closeness, joy, relief of worry, fear or sadness? Please fill in the blank with your own answer, and now let's skip to actually feeling that condition that you are in fact longing for! Let all arguments against this free-fall jump slough off like a bird shedding last year's feathers so new ones can grow. Inhale deeply as you think of the word SAT, rhymes with "hot," that means the Great Truth at all levels. Then as you exhale, think of the word "NAM," rhymes with "mom," meaning identity or manifestation. Repeating this mantra with every long, slow, deep breath--fully inhaled and exhaled actually calls in the matrix of this Truth! But don't be grabby and squeeze it to death! Just be open and fully relax; ride on the current. Let yourself be rocked by the mantra in the arms of your breath. Live and love on this sacred and deeply powered breath! Feel as though your energy is gathered and focused into a laser beam emitting from your "third eye," which is the very powerful but subtle energy portal just between your eyebrows and a little above. Keep up this sacred energy beam while you breathe and repeat Sat on the inhale and Nam on the exhale. Relax into it--very important to relax into it! So simple, actually! Then as you do this, let yourself actually fall into the state of being that you found you really, really want! Visualize that feeling; feel that feeling completely--even if you think that is impossible or you are unworthy. Just commit yourself to this practice and drop into it with no judgment. Relax into it in the biggest, calmest, most natural way. Don't fight with it, just experiment with it! Do this over and over. Neither believe, nor disbelieve. Only do it! And continue doing it day and night, even while you sleep, and as a background to all your talking, thinking, entertaining, loving, and whatever else comes up. Drop your worrying. Meditate deeply with this. Just sink into this cozy, soft snowdrift of Light and let that state of being that you most hunger for come to you, rise in you on soft wings, whenever it feels like it! This, my Dears is what Christmas is all about! Allowing the God within you, Who you really are, the savior of the Christ that glows within to be born in your own Spirit and your own heart! Please cut out the middle man of longing, hurt, worry, being anxious, lost, depressed, or unfulfilled. And cut out the "stuff" that you think will bring you your most desired state of being. Rather find that cozy, intimate magic of what lives within you, and is YOU at all times! No, Dears. This is not self-delusion! This is Self- Realization! Realizing the sweetness of what actually is Yours, and not separating yourself by illusion! That's Reality! Then as your insides change, you might even find that outside circumstances change to reinforce and follow the energetic, creative Force that originates from within you! This is how Peace comes! This is a very precious secret that I am sharing with you. So, for this Christmas time, let's us just sink into PEACE, and whatever your specially desired feeling is, and let the LIGHT come alive!!

2008: HOW TO HANDLE THIS YEAR! Predictions   January 1, 2008   I am just tuning in to determine what 2008 will bring us, and how we can best handle it! So, here goes! The first thing. This will not necessarily be a "jolly year," although it will have its moments of kindness and levity that give us new inspiration for the genuineness that life deeply, truthfully and fully lived can bring out. This year will bring about very important and very powerful changes in the vibrations of Earth. For instance, changes on our Planet may accelerate-- such as "strange" weather patterns that are beginning to emerge, extreme in some places while highly docile in others. Thunder storms are heavier in some places, while dry, dry, dry marks others. This polarization of weather has not actually been seen before. Also, Earth changes are more likely to come about, such as softening of the turf in some places--sink holes, mud, and mud slides, earthquakes from low rumbles to some "lurchers." You will find that you are giving more to our sweet Planet while getting less--that is giving more attention, more "shoring up," more subsiding of the powerful vixens of change--pollution, heat holding gases, etc. But the Big Blue One is infected and sick, and will have to play out the fever with all that that entails. Now, Dears, this is the psyche of our Planet for the upcoming 12 months. Expect roiling turmoil and discontent as a result of the political scene devolving. Yes, the powers that have been will find that they have been wearing the "Emperor's New Clothes," but now the population is seeing that all the obfuscations are becoming transparent. We will learn bit by bit about the skullduggery that has been attempted in our name. No, not everything will be uncovered in one fell swoop. It may take years and years before all is known, but the effects will put our planet in peril--monetarily (money systems), financially (exchange ability), and economically (the ability of populations to create a balance and influx of wealth). And because we--our ability to "support" ourselves--feed, clothe, educate, shelter, and care for ourselves and others is so very interwoven with this thinning fabric, we will begin to see rips and tears in it. So, this is the time to "gather ye rosebuds while ye may," meaning that this is really the time to simplify and go natural. Create the systems and habits of supplying yourselves as easily as you can, for instance with local produce, grow and store your own, buy that property in the country that you have been dreaming about, make your wardrobe become as simple and natural as you can make it, stock your garage with a set of very basic hand tools for building, repairs and gardening. But the most important thing of all, Sweet Ones is to express yourselves with genuine openness and gaiety! Dance and sing, and learn how to really let go of the deep stress that dogs us in our current culture. Let go of the old passions that drive us to drink over positions, sturdiness of income, and the fabricated "pleasures" of life. Learn to stay active while maintaining your sanity and contentment. Increase the joys of your life from the inside out. Do your spiritual work intensely so that you drop the hurts and heal your shortcomings. Learn to love, LOVE WITH ALL YOUR VAST HEART! There is absolutely no substitute for Love in this evolution of Earth and all Her minions--you and me, as we move into this new stage set of the next epoch. Find your depth, throw out what doesn't serve it, and be the real YOU! That includes letting go of, or healing/forgiving old hurts, blames, feelings of being inadequate or superior, stressed, unheard, abandoned, grasping, craving, insecurity, feeling overcome, and so on. Everyone has their own unique set of debilitating emotional habits. Change your life to accommodate your changes of habit. And you get there by dedicatedly using all your spiritual practices. Go to neutral! All prosperity, kindness and power live in neutral! That doesn't mean turned off or blocked, it means open to every possibility, knowing without a doubt that your very best solutions and courses of action will simply become apparent to you from the One who loves you most--your own delicious God-Self, your Soul! So, this clearing out and switching to genuine LOVE is your very, very best survival tool. Nothing can replace that! From that, all happiness will flow--really! So, do your personal healing work and let abundant happiness well up through you this year!
