Spiritual Laws of Relationship

When you die and you face the doorkeepers to heaven, how well will you account for behaviour in this lifetime? 

To get past the scales of Anubis, which weighed the soul against the feather of Maat, the goddess of Justice and Order, the souls of the Ancient Egyptian Pharoahs were measured according to the Laws or Divine Principles of Maat expressed in these statements.

The divine laws taught by the Master Jesus, on the other hand, centre on our attitude to God and our behaviour with each other.  Love God, the Creator, the All that Is, however you name It. And be towards your fellow humans as you want them to be towards you. Not in theory but every day, in this life.

To help you relate more lovingly, respectfully and kindly to others, or at least to do it as best you can, I will share with you some of the basic principles of relationships that I have learned from many spiritual teachings and traditions, and that I know from (hard-won) experience really can make an enormous difference.

Spiritual Principles for Relationships with others  (partners or spouses, past and present,  children, parents, workmates, neighbours, strangers, foreigners, those who are different to us...basically, everyone). Now....

However difficult another person may be, that person gives you an opportunity to know yourself better, and to develop your soul.

So even if a person persecutes you, speaks unkindly about you, takes advantage of you, or intends to hurt you, do not fight back or do spiteful things. Retaliation does not show strength: it expresses inner fear and weakness.

The challenge is not to prove you are right, or good or superior, or to justify yourself to someone else. The real challenge is to turn within yourself to find what you must learn.

First, analyse yourself and your relationships. Do you see problems with others that seem to occur again and again? How might you be contributing to those negative patterns? What faults and weaknesses might those others be reflecting back to you?

Do NOT judge yourself. Judging always contributes to your problems; it never solves them.

Do not judge the other person. You cannot ever know another’s soul , needs, fears or beliefs enough to accurately judge him or her.

Judgement is never constructive. Instead, it motivates people to lie, make excuses, defend themselves, and causes resentment.

Leave judgement in the hands of God, or the universal forces. The law of the Universe (karma) is that whatever a person does to others, they will face in their own experience. Whatever you do to, or think about others, whether good or bad, plants the seeds for your future experiences.

When we find fault in others, we will find those same faults in ourselves. We will experience those same criticisms and judgements in our own lives.

The only way you can ever truly understand a situation, a person - even yourself - is to take things as they are, here and now…not as you wish they were, or think they should be, but as they are right now. What is, is the only material you can ever work with. The rest is not real.

It takes strength to look inward instead of pointing the finger at another. It takes strength to seek the truth about yourself, instead of forming opinions about others. It takes real strength to do what is right and good when you feel hurt, angry or disappointed.

And it takes a lot of patience.

But no matter how difficult it may by, no matter how often you fail, keep trying. I can't tell you what a huge difference it will make to your relationships, to your life and to your peace of mind. And it will, I assure you, make all the difference to your Soul.

 

Helping Humanity's Spiritual Evolution

 

 

 Be thou as impartial and free of judgement as the sun whose loving light falls on all..

 

 

The Essene Gospel of Peace tells us to: "Speak concerning the truth to those who seek it and of knowledge to those who, in their error, have committed sin. Make sure-footed those who stumble and stretch forth your hands to the sick. Nourish the hungry and set at ease those who are troubled. Foster men who love. Raise up and awaken those who sleep. For you are this understanding which encourages. If the strong follow this course, they are even stronger.”

What has this to do with me, you may ask,when I myself need help and encouragement?

There is an old adage that says, 'If you would learn, teach', and that is something that we can all do in our own way. All it takes is the desire to grow, and being genuine.

We acknowledge our weaknesses and how far we are from our ideals, and we aspire to them anyway

We stumble, lose our way and fall, and pick ourselves up again.

We are not even sure that we're on the right path, but until we find a better path, we stay with the one we've chosen.

And from our constancy, our determination and hopefulness, others who are even more confused, more lost, more needful than we might find hope for themselves, and muster up the courage to keep trying.

In this way, as flawed as we might seem to ourselves and others, and even without knowing, we can help up those who need a hand, and become a light of hope in the world.

Peace be with you,

Tosca

 

Strengthening your soul-self, your Ka

We are part of the Cosmic Design

We are an intricate part of nature, of the cosmos, and it is part of us. The ancients teach that human Consciousness is intimately entwined with the energies and patterns of the Cosmos. Everything that happens in the cosmos has its counterpart in the human body and our personal and collective consciousness.

The Cosmos and We are mirrors of each other. In the words of the great Hermetic principle: As above, so below.

Just as our thoughts, emotions and actions resonate throughout the cosmos as destructive or life-enhancing, ensouled energy, the energies of the cosmos can strengthen or weaken us on all levels, physical, mental and spiritual.

Yet we are not hapless players in the great cosmic drama, for we have been given the power of a free mind with which to strengthen the light within and around us, and resist the darkness with which we are tried and tested.

We can harness soul-strengthening,  transformative Cosmic Energies

One source of cosmic energy are earth-directed solar winds. These winds are released by the sun through what are called coronal holes, areas where the sun's powerful magnetic forces do not loop back into the sun but instead, stream out into the cosmos. When these coronal holes face earth, the solar winds generated by these streams of energy enter our atmosphere, where they can create geomagnetic storms, winds and other measurable effects. Solar winds are also known to affect humans physiologically and mentally.

 

 

Solar winds from these coronal holes are expected to hit earth's atmosphere by the 4-5th August 2013.

 

 

 

Less known is that the energies of the solar winds  also affect our other layers of consciousness, including those layers that make up our auras as well as our etheric body.

The ancient Egyptians call the etheric body the KA. It is "that aspect of men and gods that is connected with the creative life force."  A person is bequeathed KA at the moment of birth, and continues after the death of the body, so we could see it as that person's portion of the divine life force, which continues after death. Just think of it as your radiant body, that level of your being that surrounds and permeates your physical body, receiving and transmitting light energy from and into your environment.

The Egyptian Ka is Usually represented in ancient Egyptian sacred art by the strange image of two connected arms. In other traditions, it can be seen as the aura, or a sheath or radiance surrounding and within the body.

Another aspect of the soul is the Ba, which the Egyptians thought of more  more as a guiding force within the being, separate from the body but temporarily housed in it... different from the etheric body, and usually respresented as a bird with a human head.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

        The BA of the dead Pharoah holds the symbol of eternal life, the Ankh.

Pharoahs and Gods can have multiple KA.

 

Meditation to harness the psychic energy of solar winds

Below are instructions for a simple meditation for harnessing energy from the solar winds, channelled by Tom Kenyon from the Hathors, multidimensional energy beings who were connected the very ancient Egyptian goddess, Hathor.

Whether or not you accept the source, do the meditation anyway, and you will still receive the full benefit.

"Creating an Energy Attractor"
(from tomkenyon.com)

In this simple but highly effective method, you place your awareness in your second body, your KA. This energy body is the same shape and size as your physical body, but it is energetic in nature, rather than made of flesh and blood. It permeates every space of your body, and thus every cell of your body is within the KA. Your KA is also highly receptive to subtle energies especially to all forms of light and to the charged photons and magnetic energies that comprise the solar winds.

As you rest your awareness in your KA, you consciously and intentionally generate the feeling-state of appreciation or gratitude through an act of personal will. This shifts the harmonics of your KA to a higher vibratory rate, which is necessary for it to become an Energy Attractor.

As you continue to hold yourself in the emotional harmonic of appreciation or gratitude, know (realize) that you are immersed in the photonic and subtle energies of the solar winds. You are literally bathing in these energies whether you are consciously aware of them or not. As you hold this awareness, along with the emotional state of appreciation or gratitude, your KA will automatically draw into itself the ascension-enhancing energies of the solar winds.


Spend as long as you can in this state of high receptivity, partaking from the solar winds, and allowing your KA to receive these potent transformational and uplifting energies.
 You will benefit greatly from the solar winds if you regularly and often engage this simple method."

Do NOT do this meditation while driving or when you need to be attentive.
