FRIDAY'S POSITIVE AFFIRMATION: Contemplation ~ Stepping Beyond Meditation
Greetings Dear Ones ....
We have enjoyed a long standing affair with meditation. From back in the 70's Transcendental Meditation has gotten a lot of air play, from the hippie movement, to our love for Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and now today with the New Age movement. Meditation is a wonderfully healing method of gaining insight into our higher selves. There is another method of receiving clarity that goes hand in hand with Meditation, and that is Contemplation. This is the topic of today's Positive Affirmation.
Contemplation differs from Meditation a little bit. Both methods use a mantra, a special word or phrase that brings peace to the user, but contemplation takes it just a touch further in that .. the mind is not cleared of thought. The mind is encouraged to be active in contemplation and follow the thoughts that come to mind. Here is Friday's Positive Affirmation to help you to take that extra step in your meditations to bring it into a contemplation when ever the mood or need strikes you. Try it !
"As I bring myself to the level of meditation that carries my spirit into the higher planes, I envision myself as part of my mantra. I am love, I am peace, I see myself riding along the waves of light and vibration into the higher frequencies where I meet all my thoughts in unison and as one, individually."
After you repeat this affirmation three times, quietly chant your special word, or phrase. You may use the ancient name for the Creator, XU (pronounced HU) and allow your heart and mind to follow the thoughts that come to you. Don't be afraid. Contemplation is completely under your control, as is meditation. Focus on positivity and allow your thoughts to roam with love, light and harmony. Continue to repeat your mantra for approximately 15 minutes, if you choose, although, even a 5 minute contemplation break will do you good !
Many blessings to you as you progress along your path.
Love in Light and Sound,
Bee
