Four incredible prescriptive, healing meditations have been revealed recently, to be used with the Creation Meditation when you are feeling particularly challenged. If you haven't done the Creation Meditation yet, I highly recommend it. This has proven to be one of the gentlest and most life-transforming meditations I have every done. You can learn how to do this meditation, right here at the Forums by going to:
http://newdreamfoundation.com/forums/index.php/topic,75.0.htmlWhenever you feel the limits of your perceptions closing in on your life, the four prescriptions can be used as the focus of your Creation Meditation. These are remarkably simple prescriptions, yet they are at the core of our human motivation. So when you meditate on them, you are touching fundamental hopes and fears that lie behind the choices you make. If you want to make new, different or better choices in your life, these meditations will help you do so in a most profound way.
During SpiritQuest, we did these prescriptions as journeys. One of the women later told us, she did not know where she had gone during the journey, but when her consciousness was once again fully present in this reality, she felt like she had been to heaven and back. Another SpiritQuest participant talked about core challenges in life being stripped away as a result of just one of these journeys.
Where did these prescriptions come from? The spiritual Grandmothers who gave us the Women's Path to Enlightenment, Full Moon Water Ceremony, Women's Rites of Passage Ceremonies, and Creation Meditation visited me in meditation. They shared with us that these prescriptions were done as healing journeys and incorporated as the focus of Creation Meditations whenever a woman (and now man) was needing greater freedom from a challenge or limiting perspective.
So what are the four prescriptions?Surrender
Commitment
Desire
Acceptance
Simple eh? Profound too, wouldn't you agree?
Recommended UseYou will probably find it best to focus on just one of these prescriptions for a while. Remember, they are fundamental to the human decision making and motivational process, so they are helping you unlock years, if not life times, of non-functional patterns and beliefs. Consider using a single prescription, until you feel the "Aha!" that occurs when an issue is resolved in your subconscious.
Some meditators are finding that with a life-time issue or focus, they need to meditate many times before the "Aha" of release and relief occurs at the end of the meditation. Issues closer to the surface, or nearly already resolved, may only take one or two meditations to get to that freeing "Aha" moment.
If you are feeling a need to meditate with one of these prescriptions, be patient and kind to yourself. Expect to use this focus several times in your Creation Meditation practice. Do not expect immediate results, but rather commend yourself on being in the process of discovery as you bring this focus to your daily Creation Meditation. It will unfold and unlock with loving persistence, until deep in your soul you feel the freedom from this challenge.
How do you know with prescription to use?Here's how I know. The one I have the most resistance to is the one I most need to do.
Isn't it often the case that where we have the most resistance is the very place within us that most needs our love, compassion and attention? And so it is with the prescriptions.
When you do it, remember to honor yourself for going to the difficult place within your soul. This place you take yourself to—where you feel your resistance coming up—is the place where spiritual masters experience the great mysteries of the Divine. If you are serious about spiritual growth, you will know you need to go there, and you will. It is not a place for the faint of heart, but it is the place of true spiritual freedom!
When you have done one of the prescriptions and have gotten to your "Aha!' please write us here at the Forums and share your freeing revelation with us. We all benefit from the inspiration of others.
