"I went to the Fairy Realm" - it's real! (video)

Grant Geist, 7/31/21; Dhr. Seven, Ananda (Dharma Buddhist Meditation), Wisdom Quarterly

(GrantGeist) Journeying to the fairy realm -- really, sober, in all seriousness -- gave me insights that are still with me today.

Some friends and I found a fairy portal and fell into into the fifth dimension (5D). This is a genuine retelling of my trip through a place once confined to European folklore.

From a mind that brings a story no one ever knew, here is MY adventure into an elf nest. The land of the Fae is no fairytale. It's real. It happened in San Diego, Southern California, near our border with Mexico. #5D #fairyrealm #fairy

Betrayal: Catholic Chuch sex abuse (video)

The Fifth Estate, Oct. 3, 2016; Seth Auberon, Crystal Q. (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Betrayal: Abuse in the Catholic Church in Nova Scotia

Betrayal tells the story of childhood sexual abuse [including rape] victims in Nova Scotia, who continued to feel profound hurt and damage as adults. Searching for restitution for their suffering, some launched or joined in lawsuits against the Catholic Church. Their partial victory has had an unexpected outcome: In order to settle those lawsuits, the Church has begun selling of some Church property in Nova Scotia -- property that local Catholic people helped build and pay for over many generations. Betrayal highlights the consequences of abuse that continue to echo throughout the Catholic Church and in communities across Canada, the U.S., and Europe.

MANTRA: "Om Mani Padme Hum"

Buddhanet.net; CC Liu, Dhr. Seven, Amber Larson, Seth Auberon (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Crib notes are unnecessary in Mantra Class. It's all rote repetition (tibetanlife.com).

Avalokiteshvara/Kwan Yin has an associated mantra. It is called the Mani Mantra or Mantra of Universal Protection runs:

Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ

 

It means "Homage to the Jewel in the Lotus."

But it cannot be directly translated without understanding something about Sanskrit mantras.

For one thing, they often begin with "om" (the universal sound). For another, they derive as much or more power/importance from their sounds or subtle vibration than from their intellectualized meaning. These vibrations relate to the human chakras. "Hum," for example, corresponds with the fifth energy-center at the throat/voice box. 

• Om: the universal sound.
• mani: jewel.
• padme: lotus flower.
• hum: a seed-sound representing the spirit of enlightenment.

I'm Avalokiteshavara, and I chant, Om mani...

For a better breakdown see Om mani padme hum. What is the source of compassion on Earth? If anyone can be like Kwan Yin -- a living being who spreads compassion, mercy, and loving-kindness -- that means we can, too. We can develop the ability of 1,000 arms, the knowledge of 1,000 eyes, and the sagacity of skillful means. All humans have innate compassion (karuna) that can be cultivated further through learning and practice. Who is God/Goddess of Mercy?

Mantra and meditation may seem mysterious, even overwhelming. But yoga instructor Jeanne Heileman dissolves any anxiety related to the mystery. Experience yoga online. “The biggest thing is to experience it,” says Heileman.

The uses of mantra (yogavibes.com)

She discusses the uses and importance of mantra, as well as the many different kinds and options. To practice mantra, follow up this discussion up with the following online yoga videos.

Online Vinyasa Yoga class with Jeanne Heileman (youtube.com/yogavibes.com)

Finding Our Voice

Explore the use of mantra with a practice that focuses on aspects of the fifth chakra, which is connected to sound and vibration. Students in a class vocalize the mantra "So Hum" while moving through Sun Salutations and other yoga poses. At times, things get quiet when silently repeating the mantra. This is when one feels the vibrational quality the mantra provides. This class leads to Sarvangasana (Shoulder Stand) and Matseyasana (Fish Pose). It may seem simple on the outside, but the students reported that the experience was very powerful on the inside. Follow up this transformative experience with try Heileman's Mantra for Meditation (55 minutes).

Mantra for Meditation

Spiritual mothering (naturealmom.com)

Everything vibrates, either on a slow, dull level or a faster, lighter frequency. The vibration of our speech comes from the vibrations of our respiratory system, which are a result of the vibrations from our thoughts. If we can begin to control (restrain) the vibrations in our mind, it can eventually ripple outward past our speech and into our actions and karmic destiny.

Mantra can be powerful. In this online meditation class, the mantra "So Hum" is offered, after some Pranayama (Breath Control) to help establish a focused environment. It is a simple, safe, and extremely powerful mantra that works in alignment with any spiritual/religious perspective. It can also help fill the void if no perspective exists. This meditation is a wonderful option for a mind that is racing and difficult to concentrate. It is also wonderful for low self-esteem when we feel we lack outer support. The effects of the mantra in time after many, many repetitions (24 mins).

Mantra is yet another amazing tool to get our limited conscious mind out of the way -- so as to re-pattern and re-wire it out of negativity and harmful habits in a subtle and effective way. Tap into your grace, goodness, and divinity, while transforming and raise one's vibration. More

 

Could "Time Travel" possibly be real?

Coast to Coast (9/16/11), Dr. Bruce Goldberg, Wisdom Quarterly

Due to ignorance, one acts with consequences. Due to karma (action), there is rebirth. Due to rebirth there is pain, sadness...and this entire mass of "suffering." Nirvana is the end of suffering reached through meditation. But Dr. Goldberg, like the ancient Vedic Brahmins, proposes another way out of the karmic cycle.

It is possible, unbelievable but possible. Let us look at the evidence rather than relying on our preconceptions and biases. Coast to Coast host George Noory recently welcomed hypnotherapist Dr. Bruce Goldberg to discuss:

• exploration of other dimensions
• time travel and travelers
• glimpsing the future
• ascension techniques

There is physical evidence of time travel. One piece is the baffling case of Rudolph Fentz, a Kansas man reported missing in 1876.

He mysteriously appeared in New York in the 1950s, when he was quickly struck and killed by a car. (Like a deer in the headlights, he did not know what these things were or the necessity of exercising extreme caution around them).

The morgue reported Fentz was sporting mutton chop sideburns and wearing 19th century clothes; he was carrying a five-cent beer token, a livery-stable bill, and a wad of antique money -- all fresh and showing no signs of age. Goldberg explained this case as evidence of early teleportation.

What is time? (themostawesomepageintheuniverse.com)

He also shared a surprising case of hypnotic progression (not regression) in which a man named John learned that he would become a time traveler in the 35th century.

"Our dreams contain fragments, because they are out-of-body experiences, of futuristic material," Goldberg says. "Through them one can access the past, present, and future, as well as parallel dimensions."

Goldberg (pictured left) offered a series of nighttime exercises to help anyone wishing to become a conscious out-of-body traveler. One can tap into what he calls our "higher self," the perfect part of us. Accessing our higher self can help soothe the bereaved and even provide healing, he suggests. It is the reason for his work.

Goldberg talks about the importance of "conscious dying" as an ascension technique. He describes it as a way to merge with the higher self at the moment of death in order to avoid the disorienting forces of the karmic cycle.

By way of example, Goldberg speaks of the case of an uncertain pianist named Edna. She died in 1979 and was reborn in 1981 as an empowered young girl named Paula, who played the piano and spoke of her past life.

Kama Sutra Love Sounds

Sexual Healing: Tantric Sacred-Spot Massage
Examiner.com, 9/3/09) As a teacher of tantra and a sexual healer, I am often surprised at how many women have lingering sexual wounds. These may be from sexual abuse…

Vishuddah: The 5th Chakra

Luminessa Enjara (SF Tantra Examiner)

Have you ever noticed that when you allow yourself to let go and to become vocal while making love, it seems to feel even better? I can remember the first time I did this. It made quite an impact on me. I gave myself full permission to really be loud and make a lot of noise. I felt ecstatic.

It was a wonderfully freeing experience. Making sounds during lovemaking can sometimes be difficult for women. We often cut ourselves off at the throat. We may have been told that it was unladylike or "slutty." Religious standards, shyness, insecurity, all may contribute to being silent in bed.

Men, too, may have difficulty vocalizing during lovemaking. Even if they have been given permission regarding sex in general, most find making sounds unacceptable. More>>
