				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span lang ="en"><p style="text-align: justify;">Many times we hold the belief that happiness is located in the future. I will be happy when I became a doctor, when I obtain that object, when I do that thing, when I achieve that result, when I reach enlightenment&#8230; in the future. Our goal oriented society again, influence us to facilitate that kind of thoughts and beliefs.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> <img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1481" title="happy" alt="" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/happy.jpg" width="200" height="137" />Chogyam Trungpa pointed directly in the title of his book “<em>The path is the goal</em>.” The idea is to embrace happiness as a fully lived present moment rather than a future event, a future goal that is need to be attained in order to experience happiness. In this way we embrace spiritual practice not as a means to achieving a future goal but as a way to a more fully lived present moment. We choose to live making every moment an ongoing spiritual practice, with no prescribe goal. We choose to step off the hamster wheel of <em>needing</em> to attain anything at all.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> Jesus, Krishna, the Buddha and Lao Tzu tell us that the Way, the map that points the direction back home, lies within ourselves. But they also correct our misperception that there is a destination. They insist that there is no map, no home, nothing to do, nowhere to go, nothing to achieve, and nobody to become. They tell us that we are already home; that we are already One; that we already live in the Kingdom of God.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> Mahatma Gandhi wrote “You need not think of the world beyond. If we can do our duty here, the beyond will take care of itself.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Indian Sage and poet Rumi wrote:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;All your Impatience comes from the push for gain of peace.<br />
Let go of the effort and peace will arrive”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Vietnamese teacher Thich Nhat Hanh wrote “In Buddhism ‘aimlessness’ (apranihita) is taught as a way to help the practitioner stop pursuing the future and return wholly to the present.  Life is a path. To practice walking meditation is to go without needing to arrive.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> Eckhart Tolle pointed directly in this way: “Don’t seek for happiness. If you seek it, you won’t find it.”</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;">By doing nothing everything is done.<br />
He who conquers the world often does so by doing nothing.<br />
When one is compelled to do something,<br />
the world is already beyond his conquering.<br />
<strong>- Tao saying -</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Let yourself feel deeply the possibility of really resting in the center of your own being without the idea that there is anything more to get, to do, or to become. All is perfect as it is. This lucent reality, this living in the now with art and humor, returning continuously to here, and here, blessing each moment with a gift of creative presence.</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"> When you don’t require anything from the world,<br />
and nothing from God -when you don’t desire anything,<br />
when you don’t strive for anything,<br />
when you don’t expect anything,<br />
the divine will enter you,<br />
unmasked and unexpected.<br />
<strong>- Sri Nisargadatta - </strong></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span lang ="en"><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The belief that you don’t have a choice<br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1460" title="you have no choice" alt="" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/you-have-no-choice.jpg" width="200" height="247" />When we deeply understand that we are completely responsible of our feelings and actions, we also start to knowledge that we always have a choice. “I had to do it, I had no choice.” That’s never true! We always have a choice. Every moment we choose to do what we do, and we don’t do anything that isn’t coming out of choice.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This doesn’t say anything about whether we like it or not. I may not like the choice I have to make, but I still have choices in every situation. I can still plan. My thinking cannot be controlled. For instance, we may get on the train to the concentration camp as an alternative to being shot on the spot. It’s not a choice I like, but it’s still a choice.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There’s a Gary Larson cartoon of two guys in chains hanging on a dungeon wall. One says to the other, &#8220;so, here’s my plan&#8230;.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So be sure to phrase to yourself, <em>“I am choosing to do this thing because I want to”</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What is your motivation behind your choice?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If we are choosing to be completely responsible for our actions then it’s important for us to be conscious that we don’t do anything except for good reasons. The main rule of measure for our actions can be: <em>Everything we do is in service of our needs</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><a href="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/must.png"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1461" title="must" alt="" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/must.png" width="200" height="200" /></a>Make choices motivated purely by our desire to contribute to life rather than out of </em><strong><em>fear, guilt, shame, duty, or obligation</em></strong><em>. </em>Anything you give that isn’t for totally <em>self fulfilling reasons</em>, the other person will pay for.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When we are conscious of the life-enriching purpose behind an action we take, when the sole energy that motivates us is simply to make life wonderful for others and ourselves, then even hard work have an element of play in it.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>So <em>never do things for others,<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal;"><em>only things to meet our own needs. </em></span></em></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We would appreciate what we do if we are motivated purely by the <em>human desire to contribute to enrich life. With every choice you make, be conscious of what need it serves.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You can mindfully replace language that implies lack of choice with language that <em>acknowledge choice</em> by consciously replacing the phrase “I am angry because you…” with “I am angry <em>because I am needing…</em>” Also replace “I have to” with “I choose to… because I want…” Replace “I should&#8230;” with “I might&#8230;” And completely avoid any limiting self dialogue, like “I can’t&#8230;” or “I’ll never be able to&#8230;”, “I am bad in this.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As Bruce Lipton pointed out in the film “What If&#8230;”, <em>you are personally responsible for everything in your life once you are aware that you are personally responsible for everything in your life. </em>So, now that you know, choose to don’t fool yourself anymore and take full responsibility of your feelings, actions and the motivation behind your actions.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span lang ="en"><p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1454" title="denial" alt="Denial of responsibility" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/denial.jpg" width="200" height="267" />We grow up in a society that is used to deny the responsibility of our actions. Instead of assuming that we are each responsible for our own thoughts, feelings, and actions, we blame others or the circumstances for our feelings and actions. “You make me feel this way” or “I feel this because you&#8230;” are examples of a complete denial of responsibility.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The mechanism of denial of responsibility for our feelings is also ingrained in the collective as a method of manipulation by guilt. The basic mechanism of motivating by guilt is <em>to attribute the responsibility for one’s own feelings to others</em>. Our language facilitates the use of many <em>guilt-inducing tactic</em>s, like “You make me feel bad.” or “It hurts me when you&#8230;” or “You make me angry”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This belief is so ingrained into collective behavior that when it is pointed out, we use to feel offended and argue with angry denial, clever arguments and self-justification to distort the facts. When all else fails, the ego will resort to shouting or even physical violence.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We are each responsible for our own thoughts, feelings, and actions. What others say and do may be the <em>stimulus</em>, but never the <em>cause</em> of our feelings. We see that our feelings result from <em>how we choose to receive what others say or do, as well as our particular needs and expectations in that moment</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Remember, it’s not what other people do that can hurt you, <em>it’s how you take it. So nobody is responsible for your feelings.</em> As you can see, <em>two people might hear the same words and see the same things, yet only one becomes angry.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For example, if someone arrives late for an appointment and you need reassurance that she cares about you, you may feel hurt. If, instead, your need is to spend time purposefully and constructively, you may feel frustrated. If, on the other hand, your need is for thirty minutes of quite solitude, you may be grateful for her tardiness and feel pleased. Thus, it is not the behavior of the other person, but our own needs that causes our feelings.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it. </em>Transcending the belief that someone else or the circumstances are the cause of our feelings is a big step into a higher level of maturity and inner connection.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As Eckhart Tolle pointed it, “<em>Be aware of the thoughts you are thinking. Separate them from the situation, which is always neutral, which always is as it is. There is the situation or the fact, and here are my thoughts and feelings about it.</em>” William Shakespeare beautifully pointed, “<em>There is nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so.</em>”</p>

 <a class="more-link" href="http://ayahuasca-wasi.com/transcending-subconscious-conditioning/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a></p><p>The post <a href="http://ayahuasca-wasi.com/transcending-subconscious-conditioning/"><span lang ="en">Transcending Subconscious Conditioning</span></a> appeared first on <a href="http://ayahuasca-wasi.com">Ayahuasca-Wasi</a>.</p>]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span lang ="en"><p style="text-align: justify;">If we can understand that enlightenment or translucence is the realizing and developing of our full true potential, our own expression of the unlimited, why are we not using our full potential? This is because we create our own limitations, our core beliefs. This programming began before we where six years old.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">From the time we are born till we are six years old, a child is pretty much in the delta wave frequency, and the subconscious mind is absorbing all the information that is being processed at that time. This means that up to the age of six the child’s mind is operating in a frequency equivalent to a hypnogogic trance (hypnotic trance). Whatever the child hears is not processed by consciousness. Whatever the child hears is downloaded directly into the subconsciousness. When statements like “You don’t deserve that” or “you can’t do anything right” or “you are a selfish child” are made from parents to kids before they are six, they are directly downloaded in the child’s subconscious mind.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our subconscious mind operates 95% of the day following the conditioned programs and thoughts. If we have adopted subconscious limiting thoughts like “I am not good enough” or “I can’t” or “I don’t deserve it”, then for 95% of the day, the mind will create a reality in coherence with this limiting beliefs.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When we are born into a society where most of the thoughts about humanity are limited, then we accept them, we take them on. We adopt the idea that if we want to be one with our family, if we want to be loved, basically, we have to do things the way our parents and brothers and uncles are doing them. And we all want is to be loved, we all want to be included, to belong. And our families are the closest people we know, so if we want to be loved and belong, we usually go along with the program and we do and accept the “right things”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Collective Subconscious limiting programs</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1969" title="Subconscious conditioning" alt="Subconscious conditioning" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/subconscious-conditioning.jpg" width="220" height="247" />We grow up in a society that supports a fear driven system of beliefs. We live surrounded by a world of judgments, a world of ideas about rightness and wrongness. We have learned to think in terms of moralistic judgments and beliefs that <em>certain actions merit reward while others merit punishment</em>. We have even learned to enjoy violence and believe that punishment is justified. In most violent TV programs children watch, the hero either kills people or beats them up. We grow up seeing the moralistic statement “People who hurt others deserve to be punished.”, in the T.V., in the news, in the school system, in the judicial system, in our family, everywhere.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Many of the characteristics that drive a society’s behavior (such as deserve-oriented attitude, competition, food issues, incapacity of self-healing, adopting labels, insecurity and separation) are expressions of limiting thoughts adopted since childhood. They are so common to us that we barely question them in depth. We can mentally disagree with them, but we openly accept them in the next subconscious moment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We grow up in a society that is driven by a language of constant limiting labels adopted since childhood and completely ingrained in daily communication. We grow up in a society that is used to deny the responsibility of our actions. Instead of assuming that we are each responsible for our own thoughts, feelings, and actions, we blame others or circumstances for our feelings and actions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We grow up in a society that encourages the belief that becoming someone special will bring us lasting satisfaction. The belief that we need to build some kind of personality in order to become someone, a spiritual person, a doctor, a shaman or any kind of labels that identify us and increase the sense of separation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We grow up in a society that believes that we come to this world to compete with each other in order to survive instead of having a collaborative attitude. We grow up in a society that negates death and views it as something negative. We grow up in a society that fears the unknown and craves for security and control. We grow up in a society that believes we need food in order to be alive, that we will go blind if we stare into the sun, that eventually something will go wrong with our bodies and that we do not have the capacity of self-healing, that only and external medical system will be able to heal you.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So in order to live to our full potential, we must first be able to recognize the subconscious limiting beliefs and programs. Then consciously reflect on them and analyze how ingrained in our mind they are. By deeply reflecting and inquiring into our habitual opinions, points of view, ideas and beliefs we can transcend them and move on.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So get in the habit of challenging your beliefs by asking,<strong> Is this true?</strong> Some of our beliefs can melt when we simply and honestly ask ourselves if they are true. <strong>“Do you absolutely know that’s true?” </strong>If it is possible to disagree with this thought, then it is a belief and not reality.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So what holds us back from realizing our full potential are our self-adopted limiting subconscious beliefs, which operate in the background for 95% of our daily lives. Self inquiry is simple. It does not require you to do anything, change anything, think anything, or understand anything. It only asks you to <em>pay careful attention to what is true and real</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With a contemplative practice or with the help of triggering events like a direct experience with sacred plants, (we can call these “radical awakenings”), I have personally witnessed how a growing percentage of people are experiencing within themselves a breakup of mind patterns and beliefs and the emergence of a new dimension of consciousness. I agree with Eckart Tolle that “the arising of consciousness is the next stage in the evolution of humanity,” and with each person who awakens, the momentum in the collective consciousness grows, and it will become easier for others.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span lang ="en"><p style="text-align: right;">- Diego Palma -</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For many years I have been using and contemplating the word “enlightenment” without grasping its true meaning. One day, during a lecture I was attending at a Buddhist center, I asked this question: “Is enlightenment a direction or a destination?”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To my surprise, half of the Buddhist participants attending the retreat considered enlightenment a destination, a final point of arrival, a final state of realization that can be attained in the same way the historical Buddha attained enlightenment under the Boddhi tree. The other half considered it a direction, like heading East, with no fixed end point to be achieved, like an endless exploration or evolution.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Today I see enlightenment as a direction, a finger pointing to the moon as the Buddha stated in the Snake sutra. What we are calling the “moon” is the realization and development of our full true potential, our own expression of the unlimited. Living without limitations. It could seem to be a fixed point of arrival -if we were to establish a fixed idea of what our true potential could be &#8211; but it will eventually change because once we get closer to it, our own expression of the unlimited will also have evolved.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It is important to fully understand the attribute of constant evolution ingrained in the concept of direction instead of being trapped in the idea of reaching a final destination which is based on the present ideal of our full potential, which is constantly evolving.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The concept of translucence is a new term suggested by Arjuna Ardagh who wrote the book “The Translucent Revolution.”  He proposes to use the word translucence instead of enlightenment. In the core of the concept of translucence is the sense of movement and constant evolution.<em> </em>The process is evolutionary and endless rather than aimed at a fixed point of result. The word <em>translucent</em> refers to the <em>degree of embodiment of a realization</em>, not to what has been realized. <em>One can always become more translucent</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Translucent is defined as “letting light pass through, but not transparent.” A transparent object, like a clean sheet of glass, is almost invisible. An opaque object, on the other hand, blocks light completely. A crystal is translucent. If the sun were to shine on it from behind, you would see the light passing through the sculpture, and it would appear to be glowing from the inside.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Translucent people</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1295" title="translucent" alt="" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/translucent.jpg" width="200" height="222" />Translucent people also appear to glow from the inside. To me, translucent people are the ones that due to some event like an experience with sacred plants or a spiritual practice, have touched a deeper nature of self and have felt a shift in their way of perceiving reality. After that event, they feel the call and clarity to move in a new direction and a sense of transcendence.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Translucents speak of life as a process without end, like an endless unfolding of discovery and delight. Translucence is more a direction than a destination. Like heading East, the process doesn’t imply a specific point of arrival. It is a way of living life with art and humor, returning continuously to here, and here, and here, always steeped in the vastness of the view and blessing each moment with a gift of creative presence.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Once they start to question and reinterpret some assumed beliefs about reality they learn to transform the models and maps that they have inherited. Instead of following a doctrine they embrace many teachers and experience all of life as a teacher. Rather than conforming to the ways that have been handed down through patriarchy, they embody a radical feminization of the spiritual life. Rather than renouncing to the world and aspiring celibacy, they are actively involved and they delight in sex more than ever.  And rather building a holy or “spiritual” personality in any external way, their most easily distinguishable quality is a sense of simpleness and humor about themselves and their lives. They are simple, honest, deep, and at the same time remarkably human and humble about their weaknesses.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">These people are <em>more interested in the present moment than any future state. </em>Their spirituality is more grounded in<em> direct experience </em>than in imitation or belief. They have been affected so deeply by a moment of radical awakening that <em>their relationship to who they are and what this life is about has been permanently transformed</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><span style="color: #800000;">“Let yourself feel deeply the possibility of really resting in the center of your own being </span><span style="font-style: normal;"><em><span style="color: #800000;">without the idea that there is anything more to get, to do, or to become.”</span><br />
<span style="font-style: normal; color: #800000;">- Arjuna Ardagh -</span><br />

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: right;"><strong>by Brian T Collins</strong><br />
<a href="http://omega432.com" target="_blank">omega432.com</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sound and music consist of vibrations, the more vibrations per second, the higher the pitch. The unit for this is the Hertz, abbreviated Hz. “432 Hz” vibrates on the principals of natural harmonics  and is the natural &#8220;keynote&#8221; in the universe, as opposed to 440 Hz, which is the standard in the music nowadays.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">432hz vibrates on the principals of the golden mean PHI and unifies the properties of light, time, space, matter, gravity and magnetism with biology, the DNA code and consciousness.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">432hz Natural Tuning has profound effects on consciousness and also on the cellular level of our bodies. By retuning musical instruments and using concert pitch at 432 hertz instead of 440 hertz, your at oms and DNA starts to resonate in harmony with the PHI spiral of nature.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The best way to experience the 432hz difference is by listening. 440hz concert pitch is centered in the mind whereas 432hz concert pitch is centered in the heart. Some people who are not able to distinguish the 8hz difference, claim they can feel 432hz warmer due to the longer wavelength.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1254" title="432Hz" alt="" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/432Hz1.gif" width="200" height="214" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Shape of 432Hz.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When captured in video with an accurate device that measures acoustic vibrations of nodal points that form patterns of geometry in different liquid or solid mediums, the 432 Hertz wave pops out as a triangle and it looks like it&#8217;s alive, it writhes and pulsates and refuses to take up any other form, and according to many music lovers, nicer for hearing, is softer, brighter and more beautiful than 440 Hz.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>When did Concert pitch change?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Most music worldwide has been tuned to 440 hertz since the International Standards Organization (ISO) endorsed it in 1953, following the prior recommendations of the Nazi party spokesman, Joseph Goebbels in 1939.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Suffice to say, I will not waste good energy down the rabbit hole of conspiracy to expose another Illuminatti agenda, however I will quickly state that there was an organized effort to change Concert pitch to 440hz well back at the start of the last century to codify an &#8220;Old World New Order&#8221; of central pitch.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to other sources, in 1885 already has been decided that 440 Hz had to be the standard, and around 1940 the United States then introduced 440 Hz worldwide, and finally in 1955 became the ISO 16-standard.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Most musical instruments are also adjusted at 440 Hz nowadays, that wasn&#8217;t earlier always the fact. If you find musical instruments from much earlier times, and nowadays in still distant areas on Earth, these instruments are adjusted at 432 Hz.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The importance of the frequencies we choose in music as a remedy</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vibrational Research indicates that music should be based from natural tuned cosmic frequencies of the universe if it is to be beneficial to humanity. From this hypothesis&#8217;s we can extrapolate that the standard used to determine international music concert pitch tuning should have an organic natural foundation as well.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Schiller Institute campaign for a change in concert pitch from A440 Hz back to A432 Hz is based that 432 Hz is deeply intertwined in nature.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The recent rediscoveries of the true vibrational nature of energy indicates that current contemporary A440 Hz international tuning generates a deliberate unhealthy effect in the environment. It brings about an unnatural 8 Hz change in how we think and how our DNA regulates our genetic makeup.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our brains and DNA are deeply connected to 432 through the procession of the equinox and 8 Hz cosmic frequencies. A natural measured phenomenon that supports the idea of 432 Hz intertwined in organic basis is the movement of the Sun and Saturn. All harmonic overtone partials of 432Hz line up to natural patterns and even planetary orbits. 64 108 128 144 216 256 432 864 etc</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Truly all frequencies affect DNA and consciousness as we are in a musical universal medium of dimension through the motion of frequency.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Unfortunately most western music, including popular new age healing music is still tuned at unnatural A440 tuning. The difference between A440 Hz and A432 Hz is only 8 vibrations per second, but it is a perceptible difference in the human consciousness experience.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1222" title="Ravi" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Ravi.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="230" />What is Sudarshan Kriya?<br />
</strong>The Sudarshan Kriya, a powerful rhythmic breathing technique that facilitates physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being. As HH Sri Sri Ravi Shankar puts it, the Sudarshan Kriya came to him like an inspiration to bridge the gap between the worlds of inner silence, and outer expression of life.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">‘Su’ means proper, ‘darshan’ means vision, and ‘Kriya’ is a purifying practice. The Sudarshan Kriya is therefore a purifying practice, whereby one receives a proper vision of one’s true self.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Benefits<br />
</strong>Sudarshan Kriya incorporates specific natural rhythms of breath to release stress and bring the mind to the present moment. This unique breathing practice is a potent energizer. Every cell becomes fully oxygenated, and flooded with new life, bringing a sense of joy in the moment. And when we feel good about ourselves, love flows naturally in all our relationships with others.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After the practice, participants commonly report feeling calm and centered, with a clearer vision of the world and themselves.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Rhythms and cycle patterns<br />
</strong>Nature is replete with various rhythms, and cycles &#8211; day follows night, night follows day, seasons come and go. Similarly, there are biological rhythms to our bodies, minds, and emotions. When these rhythms are in sync, we feel a sense of harmony, and well-being. When stress or illness throws them out of order, we experience discomfort, and discontent and feel upset, and unhappy.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The rhythmic breathing pattern of Sudarshan Kriya harmonizes the rhythms of the body, and emotions, and brings them in tune with the rhythms of nature. The breath connects the body, and mind. Just as emotions affect our patterns of breathing, we can bring about changes in our mental, and behavioural patterns by altering the rhythms of our breath. It flushes our anger, anxiety, and worry; leaving the mind completely relaxed, and energized.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How to do Sudarshan Kriya<br />
</strong>To learn SudarshanKriya, find an Art of Living centre close to you and enroll for an Art of Living course. Sudarshan Kriya is taught only in the course environment by a trained teacher using an audio cassette that contains instructions by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar to guide you through the process.Each individual’s experience of the Sudarshan Kriya varies as it is a personal experience.</p>
<ul>
<li>Start with three pranayama with hands in the three positions breathing in Ujjayi for 10 times each.</li>
<li>Three series of Vastikas breathing for 20 times.</li>
<li>Three Omms</li>
<li>Start the Kriya with 20 long circular breaths, 40 mid and 40 fast breaths.</li>
<li>Repeat the Kriya for a second time.</li>
<li>Rest for 10 minutes.</li>
</ul>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1214" title="Visualization" alt="" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Visualization.jpeg" width="198" height="255" />With this method of visualization we can modify and achieve anything we desire to manifest into our reality, change subconscious and instinct behaviors and programs, change and drop conditions and beliefs, manifest a dreamed destiny and attract to our lives anything we truly want.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The power of Belief and visualization<br />
</strong>Christians say that mere belief or faith in something happening can make it occur. And Buddhists believe that reality and our perception of reality are exactly the same thing. Is reality more like a dream, where if you believe you can fly you actually do? A growing body of scientific studies from around the word confirms that these spiritual ideas may have a firm theoretical ground in physics.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For example, the “placebo” effect means that the power of belief, the mind, can actually dissolve a cancer tumor if the patient merely believes she swallowed a pill with a drug in it. Even if there is nothing in the pill.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Belief and visualization are your two keys to creating within the Reality Matrix. It’s your choice. You can create your reality just like you subconsciously create your dreams every night. But if you are oblivious to this ability, then your life is like a flag being blown in the wind.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How consciousness affects the quantum field<br />
</strong><em>And according to the most well tested theory in physics, Quantum Mechanics, your consciousness changes reality. In this theory, the phenomenon knows as collapse of the Quantum Wave Function is what brings reality into existence. This is a fancy way of saying that one’s conscious observation of small unseen waves actually causes those waves to “collapse” into matter. In other words, conscious observation materializes particles into existence.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">Every time we have a thought we make a chemical. A happy thought would make chemicals that would make us feel happy and an angry thought would generate chemicals that would make us feel angry. So any thought produces chemicals in the brain that makes us feel exactly the way we are thinking.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">When we start to feel the way we think, the feeling attracts the mind to think the way we are feeling and it produces more chemicals to feel the way we are thinking. That cycle of related thinking and feeling is called the “state of being.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For example, you start to remember and think about something someone said that turns you anger, and the thought about it would start to bring the anger back, which at the same time would attract more thoughts that match the arising feeling of anger, and would generate more angry feelings.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">The state of being is what impact in the quantum field bringing the manifestation from the field of possibilities.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">The only way that the present mind could affect the objective reality is that the mind and body (thought and feeling) are ahead of the experience. And when the mind and body are ahead of the experience it means that the experience (manifestation) will find us.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>THE PROCESS OF VISUALIZATION</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Dream it possible (preparation for visualization)<br />
</strong>The process of visualization starts with thought. We think of a greater ideal of ourselves or of a particular situation. We start to reinvent, speculate and dream a new self or situation. Be open to imagine your wildest and courageous dreams. The process of thinking that possibility would prepare the brain and body ahead into the quantum field of future manifesting possibilities.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Know it possible and real for you<br />
</strong>The visualization must be something you <em>know</em> it could be possible and real for you. Even if it is not manifested yet and beyond your wild imagination, you <strong>know </strong>somehow it to be possible in your life. You must hold no doubts about it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Avoid any disempowering self-talk<br />
</strong>Be aware that you should consciously avoid any limiting self-dialogue, like “I can’t,” or “I’ll never be able to…”  and remember: <em>“The only thing between you and your goals is your own limiting thoughts.”</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Get clear on what you want<br />
</strong>We can’t wish because wishing isn’t intention. Intention means firm decision. There has to be a conviction with clarity, it is getting clear in what we want.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Visualize a vivid picture with all your senses included<br />
</strong>First and foremost, know what you want and then visualize the final result that you have decided. See all the details of the resulting manifestation. Create a picture in which all the senses work. The more senses take part in the picture, the more realistic and vivid is the picture — the easier it is to accomplish the visualization.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For example, if the result of your visualization is your own house, imagine yourself living in this house with your family. See all of you speaking (the sense of hearing) near the house and how you invite friends to visit it, and the gratitude it produces, etc. Feel the smell of the house and flowers of the garden. You can also taste a freshly prepared drink in the kitchen (the sense of taste). Outside the house you feel the nice warmth of the afternoon Sun. Such a picture becomes a film in your imagination.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Take care of the important details for you<br />
</strong>Create only those details in the picture, which are important for you. The rest of the details will be created accordingly, so you do not need to care. For example, if the location and the shape of the house are important to you, then clearly create these details in the picture. But if the number of the windows and the colors of the walls are not so important to you, do not create them at all in the picture.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Subconscious mind do not understand time<br />
</strong>The instinct (subconscious) is not very good at dealing with the illusion of the intellect called “time”, it does not know what the time is. It understands and reacts as a small child. If you tell the child “today”, “tomorrow”, “after one week”, he/she will not distinguish the significant difference, because his/her intellect has not learned to create the time. This is one of the main reasons why the picture created in the imagination has to visualize the desired state as already materialized, or the goal already attained in the present moment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The only way that the present mind could affect the objective reality is that the mind and body (thought and feeling) are ahead of the experience. And when the mind and body are ahead of the experience it means that the experience (manifestation) will find us.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">Remember that time only exists in the dimension of mind. So if the mind and body are ahead of the experience it means that you are sending signals to the quantum field and if the mind and body are prepared then it already has happened and the quantum field response at that state of being. Remember the quantum field response to how we’re being.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The visualization has to exist in the present time. If you put it in the future, like I will have, or I will become&#8230; then it is not calling the manifestation. The visualization gives you what you have created. When you create a future visualization, it will remain in the future and will never become a present time manifestation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If we pray FOR something, that something could never happen, because the moment you pray FOR something to occur, you have already knowledge that is not existing in that moment. Just feel the feeling of having that something already manifested with all your senses. Only then you open the door for the possibility to bring that something into manifestation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Feel from the result rather than how to get to the result<br />
</strong>The key resides in our ability to feel as if our dreams have already come to life, and <em>live from that feeling</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Since we are literally re-writing the code that makes the universe appear as it does. We play the prime role in what could be called a “participatory universe.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>“Act as if you are the person you want to be.”<br />
</em><em>- Bernie Siegel (Surgeon) -</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When you act in a certain way, you change your chemistry.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">There is a subtle, and yet powerful difference between<br />
<em>working toward a result, and feeling from that result.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When martial artists choose to break a concrete block as a demonstration of focus, the very last thing in their minds is the place where their hand will touch that block. The key is to place our focus upon the completed act: the brick already broken.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Think from the completion, rather than how hard it would be to get to the completion.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Infuse the visualization with the rejoice emotion of fulfillment<br />
</strong>This is the key ingredient of the visualization technique.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Assume the feeling of our wish fulfilled.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We must feel the feeling as if our prayer has been already answered. So we empower the quantum field to mirror us back. Remember: <em>It is how you feel that creates manifestation.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We create an intentional state of being proper for manifestation by first intentionally thinking of a greater ideal of ourselves or situation first, but now we need to infuse the body (emotion) with the happiness of the completed manifestation. The emotion of the realization that matches the intentional thinking.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">We have the privilege as humans that we can go from thinking to feeling without having to doing. We can bring up in our minds an elevated state of consciousness and influence the body with inspirational feelings. And when mind and body are working together we are at the doorway for personal change.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If a person is wanting to feel joy (wishing) but is feeling unhappy while is thinking that, then is not going to manifest the joy because mind (thought) and body (feeling) are not in tune, they are working in opposition. That’s why many of our prayers are never answer.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For the visualization to be effective and the result noticeable, the right picture (film) has to be created and saturated with energy. Without sufficient amount of energy the visualization will not give the result. What I mean by “energy” is the thing that a person feels under the influence of an emotion.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the visualization the picture can be compared to a seed put in the soil. The energy arising with the emotions is compared to the Sun and water. The seed without water and Sun would never grow into the plant. How to do it practically? First concentrate on yourself, relax. Allow Love to manifest itself through you (the mind and body). When you are feeling the rising energy accompanying Love, bring the picture (with all the attributes as described above) into your imagination (mind). In this moment the more Love manifests itself through you, the more efficient (earlier, easier) the visualization gives the result.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Rejoicing in the outcome<br />
</strong>When we get clear in what we want and surrender what we want to our greater mind and bring up the rejoicing in the outcome (with certainty). Now we can live our lives in a state of joy because we know then that we are going to manifest a destiny.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Surrender to the magical way the outcome will manifest<br />
</strong>Once we know that the outcome is possible we can surrender to it. In other words, if we know that our greater mind is going to assist us in the outcome, all we have to do is to get clear in what we want.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Surrender to the possible outcome also mean surrender to not knowing how the outcome is going to come into manifestation. We surrender and accept not knowing so that we don’t close ourselves to the huge amount of different possibilities, creative solutions, intuition and magical synchronicity that will emerge in the openness of the quantum field of manifestation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Every situation is so particular that coming with a established point of view is a way to limiting yourself and closing your heart to the synchronicity, creativity and amazing possibilities that arrises in every moment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Creativity only appears when we are not following any preconceived point of view or action.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The more you experience and trust the more power it gains<br />
</strong>Visualization is one of the simplest and most efficient methods used for reprogramming the instinct and bring a magical transformation into manifestation. The more you use this visualization technique and the more amazing results you experienced, the more trust you will feel in using it and will infuse more power to your next visualization.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Intuitive action (Translucent action)<br />
</strong>We can be comfortable enough with not knowing what to do until we really know and response to the situation as it is. We relax and listen to our intuition with a quite mind. We feel the answer within the peace of our breath, arising within the silence of the present moment and we act in inspired certainty. We intuitively know what to do. <em>Thought and understanding come after the event, not as the cause.</em> Intuition is completely reliable, but only when it comes from a quite mind.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The more you become familiar with surrendering to not knowing how your intention is going to be manifested, the more you will enjoy the magical manifestation and become comfortable with uncertainty. Then you will see infinite possibilities opening up into your life. It means that fear is no longer a dominant factor in what you do and no longer prevents you from taking action to initiate change.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The language of feeling<br />
</strong>When we offer our prayers from within our bodies we usually think that we need to send it to the place or person who is going to receive the prayer. We do not have to send anything, anywhere. When we feel a feeling in our bodies, it already exists everywhere because we are part of that whole. We are little pieces of the greater hologram of the quantum field of consciousness.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The feelings in our hearts are the language that speaks to the quantum field and is the language that is recognized. So keep feeling your good intentions and dreams&#8230; and life will become your living prayer, a reflexion of what you have chosen to manifest.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1194" title="tibetan-prostrations" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/tibetan-prostrations.jpg" alt="" width="314" height="209" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Hidden in the high Himalayas 2,500 years ago, Tibetan Lamas developed five simple range of motion exercises they called &#8220;Rites.&#8221;  These Rites have remarkable powers of rejuvenation; indeed, they have rightfully been called a &#8220;Fountain of Youth.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Benefits</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Actual reported benefits from the Five Rites include: Greater energy, increased sex drive, a more youthful appearance, diminished grey hair, hair re-growth, weight loss, improved eyesight, better memory, enhanced sense of well-being, longer life.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>History</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Peter Kelder first introduced this practice to westerns and claims that while stationed in India, British army officer Colonel Bradford (a pseudonym) heard a story about a group of lamas who had apparently discovered a &#8220;Fountain of Youth&#8221;. The &#8220;wandering natives&#8221;, as he called them, told him of old men who inexplicably became healthy, strong, and full of &#8220;vigor and virility&#8221; after entering a particular lamasery. After retiring, Kelder&#8217;s Colonel Bradford went on to discover the lamasery and lived with the lamas, where they taught him five exercises, which they called &#8220;rites&#8221;. According to the booklet he wrote, the lamas describe seven spinning, &#8220;psychic vortexes&#8221; within the body: two of these vortexes are located in the brain, one at the base of the throat, one on the right side of the body in the vicinity of the liver, one in the reproductive anatomy, and one in each knee. As we grow older, the spin rate of the vortexes diminishes, resulting in &#8220;ill-health&#8221;. However, the spin rate of these vortexes can be restored by performing the Five Rites daily, resulting in improved health.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Timing and repetition</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Rites are to be done at a very slow pace. The way you know if you are doing the Rites at the right pace is by listening to your breath. Your movements should be so slow that you do not even hear the in and out of your breathing. You should be resting in between each and every rep enough to keep your breath in check.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Start by performing one to three repetitions of each of the movements one time each day. Pay attention to what your body is telling you and do not strain or force any position that causes pain that indicates possible injury. A little soreness is perfectly okay but really you should start out slow enough not to have any physical hindrances the following day.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You want to work toward performing each of the movements 21 times. When you first begin, try to do 1 or 3 repetitions of each exercise. After a week, try to do 3 repetitions, then pause and try 3 more. You will certainly feel stronger in some of the movements than others. If you have trouble performing a complete set of 21, try to break it down into 3 sets of 7 repetitions with a pause between each set. Once you&#8217;ve achieved 21 repetitions of each exercise, you don&#8217;t need to go on to more repetitions. These exercises are for restoring energy, not necessarily building strength. If you feel great after doing 21 repetitions of each movement, feel free to add another session later in the day to perform another set of 21 repetitions each.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1195" title="1.of.5_Tibetan.Rite" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/1.of_.5_Tibetan.Rite_.gif" alt="" width="260" height="260" />First Rite</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Stand upright, extend your arms at shoulder level away from your body and spin clockwise (if looking at a clock face on the floor). Keep your eyes looking directly in front of you, do not focus on any one point, let your vision blur as you spin. Work your way up to 21 spins. Speed is not so important, just try to spin 21 times and stop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Breath in and out of your stomach. An opera singer, stage actor/actress or yogi experiences the benefit of breathing from this point of the body. When you stop spinning, breath even more deeply from your stomach until your head stops spinning and your balance returns to normal.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1196" title="2.of.5_Tibetan.Rite" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/2.of_.5_Tibetan.Rite_.gif" alt="" width="260" height="170" />Second Rite</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Lay down on your back with your arms to your side, palms up, keep your legs straight, begin your inhalation, raise your legs off the ground until as high as possible and pick your head off the ground, bending your neck with your chin falling toward your chest. Begin your exhalation and return to laying flat on the ground. Repeat up to 21 times. Breath in while raising your legs and head and breath out while lowering your legs and head.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When starting out, bend your legs until your stomach strengthens. If your feel discomfort, place your hands (palms facing down) under your buttocks to support your lower spine. As you progress, straighten your legs and try to raise and lower them at the same speed. Once you have worked up to 21 repetitions, try to move at a nice steady rhythm without stopping.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1197" title="3.of.5_Tibetan.Rite" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/3.of_.5_Tibetan.Rite_.gif" alt="" width="135" height="210" />Third Rite</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Kneel with your legs together, arms extended, palms of your hands on the side of your thighs, drop your chin to your chest, begin your inhalation, raise your head and lean back, move your hands to the back of your thighs and let them drop lower and support your weight, crane your head and neck backward, relax your lower spine. Begin your exhalation, start to come forward back to kneeling position with your head back up in the straight position. Repeat up to 21 times. Breath in while going backward and breath out while coming forward.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When you start this exercise, use the weight of your head to come forward instead of forcing your chin to your chest with your muscles. When you lean back, avoid craning your neck, simply let it drop with its own weight. Eventually, you can bring your shoulder blades towards each other when you&#8217;re in the back position. Keep a steady movement while going backward and forward. Keep your eyes open to maintain balance. Later, try the movement with your eyes closed to feel the difference and see if you can relax even more in the backward position.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1198" title="4.of.5_Tibetan.Rite" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/4.of_.5_Tibetan.Rite_.gif" alt="" width="220" height="170" />Fourth Rite</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sit on the floor, legs a little less than shoulder width apart, arms to your sides with hands extended flat on the ground and fingers pointed forward, drop your head toward your chest, begin your inhalation, raise your buttocks off the ground while bending your knees, shift your weight to your arms/hands and legs/feet, continue to raise your buttocks until your trunck and thighs are parallel to the ground, let your head fall back. Begin your exhalation and return to sitting position with your head dropped forward. Repeat up to 21 times. Breath in while raising off the ground and breath out while returning back to sitting position.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When you begin this exercise, just try to get from the starting to ending posture. It&#8217;s easier to do it than read about it. In the beginning, you might not be used to your body weight on your wrists. Doing some wrist warm-ups before you begin can prevent discomfort. Once you have worked your way up to 21 repetitions, try to perform the movements without stopping.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1199" title="5.of.5_Tibetan.Rite" src="http://www.ayahuasca-wasi.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/5.of_.5_Tibetan.Rite_.gif" alt="" width="255" height="170" />Fifth Rite</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Get down on the floor on your hands and knees (in push-up position) with hands and legs a little less than shoulder width apart. Begin your inhalation, come up on your toes with weight in your arms, straighten your legs, arch your back, lean your head back, do not let any of your body touch the ground except for your toes and hands (Cobra in Yoga). Begin your exhalation, bend at the waist, bend your knees, push your buttocks up into the air, make an inverted V shape with your legs and arms straight, tuck your chin toward your chest (Downward Dog in Yoga), try to put your feet flat on the ground. Begin your next inhalation and repeat up to 21 times. Breath in raising hips up into an ^ shape &#8211; downward dog and breath out while hips down &amp; head coming up into cobra.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the beginning, you will need to find where to place your hands and feet to make a complete inverted-V shape. You may do this exercise for years and never get your feet flat on the ground (a symptom of western living and always sitting in a chair). Once you&#8217;ve worked your way up to 21 repetitions, work on keeping a steady rhythm while going in and out of each position.</p>
