Dear God/ess, What is the process of Letting Go/Letting God physically, mentally and emotionally?

Complete surrender is our greatest teacher if we allow it to be. Surrender is a state of inner alertness to what is happening now, not imposing expectations or assumptions based on past experience.

Complete surrender is Faith that the power of Love can accomplish anything, even when you cannot see the outcome of the situation.

Letting go is a process. You have to know when to apply it, what to let go of, and how to let go. Neither your mind nor your ego is going to show you any of these things. Your ego believes you must hold on in order to survive. Spirit is the only ally we have in letting go to the Higher Power in our lives.

The secret to surrender is to foster Awareness whenever you feel a reaction to any given difficult situation. Any time you are tempted to react in the same old tired way, ask yourself: Do I want to be a prisoner of the past, or a Being who is anchored in the present moment without any thought of past or future?

Spirit has a good outcome for every situation if we open ourselves to it, even in the face of certain death.

Physical Letting Go: Remember to breathe, relax and allow Spirit into your heart.

Mentally Letting Go: Find a mental formula to chant inwardly whenever faced with he reaction to resist, like: “My fears may come true, but outcome will turn out to be go(o)d. I will wait and observe.” Or: “This is just another experience and I am here on Earth (School) to have experiences. Nothing is wrong.”

Emotionally Letting Go: Simply enter any powerful emotion and embrace it, and see it through until the resistance changes to Spiritual Insight.

Learning to surrender is an art form requiring great patience.

The willingness to surrender is often all you need to begin.

Om Peace Amen

Dear God/ess, Julia Rogers Hammrick is on our radio show this week, 11/23/2010 at 6 PM/EST. Joan and I have had her on the show before and she is an absolute delight!

Her book, “Choosing Easy World” was published this year and we will be discussing and experiencing the concepts in her book. Julia will teach us how to consciously choose Easy World over the mindset of resistance, struggle and strife. I think Julia would agree that we aspire to Easy World right here on the Pray To Heal Blog, and everyday, we manage to sustain it.

In the process of fixing up this Pray To Heal Blog, which is an exercise in reflection, contemplation and naturally, prayer, I came to the realization that taken as a whole, what is contained here is a stand alone spiritual practice. Each entry is a jewel placed in the heart of all human kind, as well as the trees, beasts and stones.

Yet isn’t that what our kindred souls here on the Internet and elsewhere are all successfully achieving? We reach out to all souls everywhere and encourage a letting go of all that has gone before.

That leaves all of us right here in the Present Moment, the only true reality and preferred place to be.

We are exactly where we are supposed to be. This is exactly what the word and celebration of “Thanksgiving” is all about. We gather together with family and friends and experience the true meaning of communing: communing with Self, with spirit, and the preciousness of those who are with us today.

We cherish the moment and surrender as we move on to the next breath, the next step, the next Holy Peace of the season.

Om Peace Amen

As we cultivate love and compassion in even the most difficult moments with even the most perceived difficult people, let us remember that Love and Compassion are action verbs and are not weak or sentimental. They demand the highest level of courage and integrity that anyone is capable of.

I spent the last several hours with Ulysses, and just returned from a romp in the park. I asked him to be “good” around the dogs we were without a doubt going to encounter.

He gave me a side long look which told me to shove it.

Ulysses does not like other dogs, except for a select few small dogs. And Mukunda. He adored Mukunda and still does.

Ulysses has a quiet, constant awareness about him. He is awake and tuned in. He is honest about who he is.

If he chooses not to like other dogs, he has a reason. Before I’d say he was just stubborn. But he has a natural wisdom which I trust and surrender to.

We may never understand how Divine Intelligence works, yet when we come to realize that nothing else can be trusted, we find real freedom and peace of mind.

Acquiring great material gain can appear to offer simple solutions to emotional and spiritual discomforts. But the inner quest of spirit is a subtle one because at the heart of it is the search for purpose, meaning and the sacred beauty and mystery of life.

“Don’t just do something, stand there!”

The most effective way to “Be” there for anyone, whether it be friend, foe, husband, wife, life partner, or patient is to empty your life of drama, crazy making, TV soap operas or the soap operas that people want to involve you in.

We can involve ourselves in compassionate acts without creating any more unnecessary drama, in fact rising above the dramas that swirl around the situations you are beaming love into.

“I am Loving Awareness.”

The Blue Heron Farm Spiritual Retreat Center just had its Grand Opening 8/13-14-15/2010. Now we are moving forward and planning another retreat, where Tom and I will teach the Mechano-Magic Treatments, along with an energy heart to heart component taught right along with it.

We will also teach this healing modality on your cat, dog and horse. Ulysses the dog will be our subject. We will also go to a horse farm and teach you how to heal horses with this method.

The Mechano was popular at the turn of the twentieth century, and was given as a gift to the world by Ella Kilgus. Her mentor was the Philosopher William James.

I received the treatment many times from Dr Ella herself. I learned it from her student Dr Henry Williams, my family Homeopathic doctor, also an MD.

I learned it when I was 6 years of age.

I always was inspired, from 6 years on to teach and give these treatments. The time has finally come.

The Mechano weekend is 12/3-4-5/2010. Read the Lens to gather more information.

I look forward to connecting.
