Recently I walked into my chiropractor ' s office and asked how he was doing. " Lots of challenges, " he laughed, " so lots of growth and progress. " I loved his positive perspective: It ' s all progress, no matter what!
Perspective repeatedly disappears into the mental fragmentation described by Edgar Cayce as " ruinous points of consciousness. " The brain, speeding up to the riot of voguish life, deals with this stress by multi - tasking, but right away blurs with enervate and confusion. The peaceful, easy rhythms of the brain – synched by resonance to the natural world – are forgotten for the moment and occasionally for a lifetime.
Perhaps you ' ve felt your thoughts bouncing around inside your head, colliding with one augmented so that you can ' t slow them down, can ' t think straight, and don ' t view which way to turn? This mental state, the reaction of stress, anxiety and panic ( ofttimes induced by anger, resentment, frustration and fear ), is a far cry from the higher perspectives of my chiropractor.
Of course, it ' s easy to be in order, clear, relaxed and insightful while engaged in energy healing, meditation, original endeavor, spiritual study, communion with nature, and moving meditations like t ' ai chi or chi kung. Brainwave frequencies – the speed of electrical labor in the brain / mind – obligingly slow and deepen into the peaceful centeredness of the meditative mind, which is unlatched and flowing with self - awareness, enjoys artistic challenges, and devotes itself to living a life of clarity, joy, meaning and project.
Resting inside itself, the meditative mind awakens to an awareness of its unfathomable intuition, which is always present in conclusion not always heard. In the silence, intuitive awareness guides us out of destructive patterns and behaviors, so that we are able to transcend our lower nature and the duality within our own being. Free to explore and create, we let go of what does not serve us and cultivate what does.
With the mind unbolted to itself, we discern our exactness. Fear of the unknown dissipates and loses its grip on us. We come fully witting and devote ourselves to service and the higher awareness enjoyed by enlightened people.
This is how cosmic consciousness evolves of its own accord. Sometimes we awaken spontaneously, but in most of us the brain / mind expands as we do what we came here to do: the work of growth, healing, change and progress.
The Evolution of Consciousness
Recent discoveries in brain science confirm meditation and inner transformation as the evolutionary pathways of the brain / mind into cosmic consciousness. Studies display that focused awareness and distant attention, the basis of sitting and moving meditation, are tied for this multi - dimensional expansion.
The " body electric " and the cosmos – which, after all, are inseparable – are so brilliantly constructed that psychology, physiology and the psychic ( mind, body and spirit ) operate as one and the same.
To give impulse with, studies sight that the senile " scripts " that define ( and limit ) us are laid down between one and eight caducity of age in our theta brainwave frequencies, setting we operate at those ages. So when we deepen into the alpha - theta frequencies of meditation, we gain access to what needs healing and the still - bounteous intuitive wisdom that shows us how to do the healing and assists us in it!
Remarkably, focused concentration on inner healing unplugs the neural circuitry of decrepit, unwanted patterns of behavior ( literally, electrical circuits in our theta brainwaves ) and in clearing these blocks frees energy for the creation of neurons ( nerve cells ) in the emotional amygdala and the hippocampus, the residence of our memory, creativity, perspicacity, intuition and spirituality.
So while we are letting go of elderly issues, we are building new circuitry and function – exactly latitude we need it most!
While we rest in the focused awareness and enlarged attention of meditation to do the work of inner transformation, the brain – not unlike a computer " hard drive " – relaxes enough to " defrag " and revitalize the whole system.
* First, the brain ' s by oneself and right hemispheres stir into balance. The balanced brain, free of static handicap, more closely coordinates with its central nervous system to restore and heal the body.
* Once the body ' s nervous system is in balance, the kundalini life force is better able to uncoil and rise from its seat at the base of the spine up through the large resonating cavity of the heart into the smaller cavity of the clever. Here, compression of the energy raises it into megahertz frequencies that produce gamma brainwaves; these vibrate the parietal lobes of the brain at the crown chakra ( spiritual focus ) into spiritual ecstasy, spontaneous awakening and the brainwave biofeedback pattern of the evolved mind.
* Now humming with energy, the brain surges electricity into its frontal lobe ( or prefrontal cortex ), the seat of reason and higher individuality, creating neurons that quite thicken the cortex to increase our capacity for intelligence. Positive affirmations – or, as Edgar Cayce called them, " ideals " – stated before meditation ascendancy this " new mind " as it is being formed. We are wise to consult the heart and soul in fashioning our ideals.
* Tolerably than merely intellectual intelligence, frontal lobe expansion is intuitional. The nerve cells and electrical circuitry accommodate high - frequency gamma brainwaves associated with psychic and mystical states ranging from out - of - body travel and super - psychic intelligence to the omniscience of cosmic consciousness.
* Not surprisingly, we experience this neurogenesis as light. Long - term practitioners of meditation and supersensitive people may witness a pulsing indigo light, multicolored lights, or even glyphs in the " catechism eye " chakra between the eyebrows, location the frontal lobes are located. The rising kundalini life force is audible in rising and expanding frequencies of sound – the Sufi " music of life " – and can be felt as energy running up and down the spine. If it concentrates in the questioning eye, vocal Cayce, this indicates one ' s ability to be a hands - on healer.
* In deep meditations on love and light, the electrical informal in the brain runs to the withdrawn prefrontal cortex, locale we process positive emotions like happiness, compassion and joy. This processing decoration, half-cooked by meditation, builds positive neural circuitry through the bodymind, so that we scarcity less generally to negative emotional processing in the right prefrontal cortex. We positively become happier people.
* Consciously listening to our spirit for insights that unplug decrepit circuits and build new ones integrates our brain, percipience and intuition into the harmony, health and alliance of the new human who will build the new terrene, through the soundless of meditation which shows us the way.
It ' s no wonder that meditation makes mystics of us, and mystics gravitate to meditation. Pathcutters warm to developing five quiescent chakras are fine awareness into a bent on communion with World spirit, in the sense that Almighty is the sphere and the energy of the terrene is World spirit.
Some 75 years ago, Edgar Cayce predicted the development of a fifth " root pursuit " with 12 chakras and a superintuitive connection to Almighty. Both are developing through our steady maturation of the brain / mind, which in a very usable way is preparing us for the up.
In the midst of maelstrom, enormous awakening is occurring. The honest mind snowed in inner transformation is developing the cosmic mind that will spot us through the rampant changes now underway. Today, more people are drawing near for cosmic consciousness than ever before. And it ' s available to everyone.
The New Human, A New Soul
Twentieth century poet and essayist G. K. Chesterton wrote, " The body of a new chronology is not that we should have a new occasion. It is that we should have a new soul. " But how do we get a " new soul "?
French Skipper Charles DeGaulle answered this in reading, " We may go to the moon, but that ' s not very deep. The best neighborhood we have to stash still lies within us. "
It is always wise to measure our promote, if not through brainwave biofeedback, then by contemplation what we project out into the world. If you catch yourself blaming or intuition someone increased, that ' s manifest of a motif of self - charge or self - grasp lodged in your subconscious or unconscious mind.
To let go of what does not add you, find a hushed place locus you can be definite, stifling your eyes, withdraw your awareness from the frontage world, and deepen into yourself.
Go down and in, down and in. Pouring white light from your crown into the thoughts in your head, draw your illuminated thoughts into the nerve center of your heart until you feel hushed, windless and present to yourself. When your awareness is lasting, rest in that salutary peace for awhile.
If you have difficulty maintaining focus, slow your breathing, relax the back of your tongue, and trail more light from your crown and inquiring eye into your heart. Or bring to mind an experience of joy and enshrine that experience. At some point, you may invocation to shift your attention to the area between your eyebrows or your forehead. If you do so, be incontrovertible to keep your closed eyes soft and relaxed.
When you are ready, allow a problem, point or challenge to surface in your mind and just sit with it. You need not think about it. Just wait patiently. The solution will become apparent to you, along with an inner certainty of higher awareness that will convince you of its truth.
You could extremity your meditation at this point, or go the distance into the bliss of spiritual light. Sinking into quiet waters that scorching the heart and soul, soothe the mind and heal the body takes us into the very presence of love, the energy that composes us and element greater. Opening to Universal Awareness with awe, gratitude and joy lights up and heals the heart – " spiritualizing " us, as Edgar Cayce put it. It ' s a real energy that carries us into Unison. In return, sending love out into the world evolves our brainwaves and life more than machine deeper.
Sending out Light, without direction or opposition, with the understanding that Light knows how to allay the suffering of all beings is what generates gamma brainwaves. I have practical this in brainwave biofeedback sessions with others and felt and mapped it in myself. Deva Premal ' s dulcet partner, Mitten, describes this happy sensation in these lyrics: " Just an empty heart, full of light / Resting in emptiness. "
We fill with Light to become more as - Light. Surrendering to the Peace and merging with that Union transforms the brain, consciousness, body and soul into the change we want to descry in the world – the new human in the new earth that we are all so happily awaiting.
