World Peace Prayer via Energetic Synthesis

I lovingly command every function in my entire body to be fully directed in the intent, consent and authority of my highest expression, my Christ-Self, God-Self. All contents, structures and devices within my body and consciousness, known or unknown to me now are completely governed by the Law of One, in Cosmic Sovereign Law. I AM God-Sovereign-Free!

… cleanse your energy field throughout the day by saying silently or out loud: “May the energy I’m sensing from others be cleared away, transmuted completely, and return to Source now. And so it is.” 

~Matt Kahn

Phase I: Re-establish your equilibrium

Calm yourself using whatever strategy works best for you. Examples of how you might do this include focusing on your breath or your feet touching Earth. One person I know holds one hand with the other and imagines that the universe is embracing her; another calms herself by looking up at the sky. Next, name what’s going on and acknowledge that you’re upset. Can you identify the aspect of yourself that is upset? Allow the part of you that knows you’re upset to comfort the part that’s upset with compassion and loving-kindness.

Phase II: Remember your intentions

Once you’ve returned to equilibrium, reconnect with your intentions. As you begin to remember your intentions, you become less and less defined by the difficult experience. You have more clarity of mind; although it may not be clear to you what to do, you remember what you’re about. I call this “self-remembering.”

Phase III: Redirect your attention

Lastly, as your clarity returns and you re-engage with life from your intentions, begin to redirect your attention. What dharma insights can you apply to this difficult situation? For instance, you might reflect on the impersonal nature of life. Although you are having a personal experience, it is just causes and conditions that are creating this experience. This too is going to change because everything changes. Life is hard; therefore, it’s not a mistake that your life is hard in this moment. This insight alone can be a source of great comfort.

Self-Soothing during Difficult Times

All is Love. Fear is Illusion. All beings are Free. Truth can never be destroyed.

Refuge

Where, or in what do you take refuge now? What provides a sense of comfort, safety and stability? Shopping? Sex? Social media? Food? Gaming? TV? Money? Chasing approval and fame? Drugs and/or alcohol? Or perhaps it’s more positive things like friends, family, nature, heath, spiritual practices, values. Or a mix of positive and negative.

While I still don’t consider myself a Buddhist, I study and engage in various mediation practices often labeled as Buddhist. There are three refuges in Buddhism: Buddha, Dharma and Sangha.

Outwardly, taking refuge in the Buddha may mean deriving comfort, protection and inspiration from the historical Buddha put forth by his words and actions. And to me, it also has an internal component: committing to awareness; honesty/integrity/authenticity; and awakening for the wellbeing of all. Refuge in the Buddha also means honoring and respecting and associating with wise elders, teachers and those beings who likewise embody these qualities. Refuge in Buddha is held in check by the Dharma and Sangha.

In addition to referring to Buddhist teachings, to me, taking refuge in the Dharma means truth, reality and how things actually are — internally and externally — and making effort not to shuck-off or shy away from truth, reality and how things actually are as long as doing so leads away from suffering. Again, Dharma is balanced by Buddha and Sangha.

Externally, Sangha points to those actively engaging with the lived example of the historical Buddha and the Dharma — both aiming to do so when gathering (together) and on their own. In a general sense it is also being grateful and blessed with an interest and commitment/resolve to Buddha and Dharma so much so that one’s internal and external conduct is aligned with Buddha and Dharma thus bestowing to all beings (including one’s self) goodness, skillfulness, wholesomeness, wisdom, and beautiful qualities of the heart.

What is Integrating Presence?

Integrating Presence today looks like allowing for the process of embodying heart-centered awareness — balancing holistic wisdom with the love flavors of unimpeded friendliness; compassion; vicarious joy; and equanimity — leading naturally to true freedom while unfolding our innate courage as we align into wholeness upon our continuing progressive evolution into completing our full potentials and capacities. Or just to enjoy the beautiful side effects: greater focus, calm, memory, immunity, kindness, sleep, lessening of pain and addictions, and promoting emotional, mental and physical wellbeing.
