A Conversation About Spiritual Practices

Without discipline, we do not go deep.  We must have the will to grow and then the faith to believe that our will bears fruit.  But whatever we will, must move from just a nice idea into an embodied or incarnated action.  Otherwise, whatever inspiration we receive through our intuition doesn't get planted into the garden of our third-density lives but instead keeps getting blown around by the winds of unprocessed daily catalysts [*]. 

 

Our Building 4th community shared our Spiritual Practices with each other in order to help each other (and anyone listening through the podcast) plant and grow.  

Here are some of our disciplines:

 

• Ecstatic dance
• Gratitude
• Mindful dishwashing
• Reading inspirational material
• Centering Prayer
• Yoga
• Walking
• Morning offering and physical gesture of self to the Infinite Creator
• Lifestyle change about how to feel in the body
• Prayer of commitment: Commit my mind to be expanded; commit my heart to be healed; commit my soul to be transformed
• When synchronized numbers appear, use that sign to pray for someone
• Touch the heart to draw attention to the heart
• An active gesture of vulnerability to God: I want to show you what is in my inner life every morning.
• Glorying in the second density, nature.
• Walking in the cemetery talking to the people
• The Presence Process book. Breathing in and out: "I am...here now...in this. Make a response instead of reactivity.

*60.26 Questioner: There has been, for the past 30 years, a lot of information and a lot of confusion, and in fact, I would say the Law of Confusion has been [chuckle] working overtime, to make a small joke, in bringing information for spiritual catalysis to groups requesting it, and we know that both the positively and the negatively oriented social memory complexes have been adding to this information as they can. This has led to somewhat of a condition of apathy in a lot of cases with respect to the information by many who are truly seeking but have been thwarted by a condition of what I might call spiritual entropy in this information. Can you comment on this and the mechanisms of alleviating these problems?

I am Ra. We of the Confederation are at the call of those upon your planet. If the call, though sincere, is fairly low in consciousness of the, shall we say, system whereby spiritual evolution may be precipitated, then we may only offer that information useful to that particular caller. This is the basic difficulty. Entities receive the basic information about the Original Thought and the means, that is meditation and service to others, whereby this Original Thought may be obtained.

Please note that as Confederation members we are speaking for positively oriented entities. We believe the Orion group has precisely the same difficulty.

Once this basic information is received it is not put into practice in the heart and in the life experience but instead rattles about within the mind complex distortions as would a building block which has lost its place and simply rolls from side to side uselessly, yet still the entity calls. Therefore, the same basic information is repeated. Ultimately the entity decides that it is weary of this repetitive information. However, if an entity puts into practice that which it is given, it will not find repetition except when needed.
