What’s in this publication: – This month we take a look at watching what we say and what we think. We also have the inspirational quote for the month, Card Reading – ‘Delight’ from Denise Linn’s Soul Coaching Oracle Cards. What Your Thoughts May Be Telling You.

Hello and welcome to another WhollyMetaphysical Communiqué.

The card reading this month somehow acted as the trigger for what I want to convey. In our reality there are two things happening at once – the so called reality, also referred to as the facts and our created experience or our interaction with this set of circumstances. How we react between the two is pretty much up to how we think and speak about our experience.

Within a given set of circumstances we can experience many different realities. All too often we will knuckle down and speak our way into a harder reality and sacrifice our pleasure and joy in the experience.

On previous occasions I have drawn attention to basic life principles that can help to make life simpler, more enjoyable and that greatly assist us to achieve our aims. Basically most of our adages, proverbs and axioms provide perfect keys to the best ways to conduct our lives and our affairs. (more…)

Peace is kindness and care for every person,
For all living things and for nature
Peace is freedom and openness to divinity
Peace is the release of inner conflict and fear
That leads to pure joy, altruism, compassion, awareness
And consciousness of our oneness and connection
Everywhere we turn we see the face of God
We are the Beings who connect heaven and earth
We are all brothers and sisters and our nature is peace
May we awaken to the light within ourselves and within others
May the human heart illuminate all of humanity
May every adult on the earth think peace, speak peace and breathe peace
We are all one divine mind and nature
May we look within to the divine core and love within us
May peace be in our hearts and minds
May the power of peace awaken in our hearts
May global wisdom prevail on Earth
May peace prevail on Earth

The Philosophy for a serene and happy life!

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexations to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let not this blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams; it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

May the light of your soul guide you today.

May the light of your soul bless your work and play with the immense love and warmth of your heart.

May you see in all that you do the beauty and light of your own soul.

May you see your own divine reflection in the eyes of those you encounter.

May the sacredness of your presence bring healing, light, and renewal to those who meet you, work with you, and need your inspiration.

May your work never weary you.

May your work release within you wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration and excitement.

May you be aware and present in all that you do.

May you never become lost and taken far from the light of your divine path.

May your burdens be lifted as you embrace a grander perspective.

May dawn find you awake and alert, approaching your new day with dreams, possibilities, inspiration, and promises.

May evening find you content, gracious, and fulfilled.

May you go into the night blessed, sheltered, and protected.

May your eternal spirit calm, console, and renew you today and always.

The Use of Prayer is an effective means of communication with Great Spirit and serves to deliver an important message for us to head today.

These prayers were read out at our last “circle” and are reproduced here for the message they contain. The “Earth Prayer” is framed and sits in our healing centre were I walk past it regularly. The other night it caught my attention and I was drawn to read it out, and followed by “The Circle of Life´ they convey a compelling message.

Earth Prayer

Grandfather Sky, Grandmother Earth,
The four winds the four powers and the four directions
Mother, Father, God, all our guides, Guardian Angels, Ascended Masters,
Brotherhood of light and all that is of Divine Grace
We welcome you to our circle,
We ask that you join us so we can truly become one with all that is.
In so doing I ask that you nurture my Body, Heal my Mind,
and Transform my Soul
So that when its time for me to leave this plain and come to you
I leave with an open heart, clear mind and True Spirit.

The Circle of Life

Man has a poor understanding of life. He mistakes knowledge for wisdom.
He tries to unveil the secrets of our Father, the Great Spirit.
He attempts to impose his laws and ways on Mother Earth.
Even though he, himself, is a part of nature, he chooses to disregard and
ignore it for the sake of his own immediate gain.

But the laws of Nature are far stronger than those of Mankind.
Man must awake at last, and learn to understand how little time there
remains before he will become the cause of his own downfall.

And he has so much to learn. To learn to see with the heart.
He must learn to respect Mother Earth – She who has given life to everything;
To our Brothers and Sisters, the Animals and the Plants;
To the rivers, the Lakes, the Oceans, and the Winds.

He must realize that this Planet does not belong to him,
But he has to care for and maintain the delicate balance of Nature
For the sake of the wellbeing of our children and of all future generations.

It is the duty of Man to preserve the Earth and the Creation of Great Spirit.
Mankind being but a grain of sand in the Holy Circle which encloses all of Life.

I salute the Light within your eyes where the whole universe dwells,
For when you are at the centre within you,
and I at that place within me,
We shall be one

Having read many of Stuart Wilde’s books we find his teachings very inspiring.  We would like to share with you this inspirational prayer and music. We have printed it out and have it hanging on the wall of our office.

We have included the words below so you may also print them out and put them somewhere where you can refer to them often.

Enjoy and please leave your comments below.

THE WARRIOR’S PRAYER

by Stuart Wilde

I am what I am.
– In having faith in the beauty within me, I develop trust.
– In softness I have strength.
– In silence I walk with the gods.
– In peace I understand myself and the world.
– In conflict I walk away.
– In detachment I am free.
– In respecting all living things, I respect myself.
– In dedication I honour the courage within me.
– In eternity I have compassion for the nature of all things.
– In love I unconditionally accept the evolution of others.
– In freedom I have power.
– In my individuality, I express the God-Force within me.
– In service I give of what I have become.
I am what I am:
Eternal, Immortal, Universal, and Infinite.
And so be it.

I guarantee you will remember the tale of the Wooden Bowl tomorrow, a week from now, a month from now,
a year from now.

A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and four-year-old grandson.

The old man’s hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered.

The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor.

When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth.

The son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess.

‘We must do something about father,’ said the son.

‘I’ve had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor.’

So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner.

There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. (more…)

A dear old friend recently handed me an aged, but neatly folded piece of paper that she had been keeping for a long while. She said it could be appropriate to share with our members. The following message was hand written upon it and we agree, so here it is.

I Wish You Enough.

Recently I overheard a mother talking to her daughter in their last moments together at the airport. They had announced the departure. Standing near the security gate, they hugged and the mother said, “I love you and I wish you enough”.

The daughter replied, “Mum our life together has been more than enough”. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough, too, Mum.”
They kissed and the daughter left.

The mother walked over to the window where I was seated. Standing there I could see that she wanted and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude on her privacy but she welcomed me in by asking, “Did you ever have to say good-bye to someone, knowing it would be forever?

“Yes, I have.” I replied. “Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?”

“I am old and she lives so far away. I have challenges ahead and the reality is – the next trip back will be for my funeral,” she said.

“When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, ‘I wish you enough.’ May I ask what that means?”

She began to smile. “That’s a wish that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone. She paused a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in more detail and she smiled even more.”When we said ‘I wish you enough’, we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to sustain them.”
Then turning toward me, she shared the following as if she were reciting it from memory….

“I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter may how gray the day may appear.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.
I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.”

She then began to cry and walked away.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but an entire life to forget them.
