We don't celebrate when we inhale. We don't grieve when we exhale. This is why the wise are neither excited by birth, nor disappointed at death. Just one breath in the life of the universe.

grounding yourself

Image
Before you meditate, or do other spiritual work such as energy healings, divination or magick, you should prepare and protect yourself. You do this by grounding yourself, centering your energies, and shielding yourself from unwanted influences. Centering: Centering is simply returning all of your scattered energies to home base. Usually throughout the day, you have little energy tendrils out doing things while you are attending to business.

There is a single Consciousness, the Universal Mind, which pervades the entire Universe. It is all knowing, all powerful, all creative and always present everywhere at the same time.
