Air Energy - Friday AM Meditation

The following meditation is based upon the Essenes' teachings... the daily meditations or communions are designed to be used morning and evening in addition to the noon practice called the Sevenfold Peace. At the beginning of each meditation, the following prologue is recited...

"I enter the spaciousness of this timeless and infinite Garden with reverence to the Source and Energy of Life, to the Earth and all its fullness, to the spiritual teachers of all traditions, to the liberating purity of truth, and with reverence to all who courageously walk the Path of Spirit..."

You are encouraged to spend time sitting with the following statement before continuing to read.

"Essence of Air, enter my lungs and give the Air of Life to my whole body."

***********

Where there is Life there is Breath... the end of air means the end of life in our physical form... atmosphere in nature and oxygen in our body have a tremendous role in health and vitality....

If you choose you are encouraged to do some rhythmic breathing... focusing on the breath and sensing the flow of energies in your body as it fills with the essence and reality of Air... then letting go on the out-breath all that is no longer needed in your life... sense the resurgence of vitality as you bring the rhythmic flow of oxygen into the physical body.

Air is the gift of Life's Source and is part of the co-creating universe. It helps bridge the worlds of the tangible and the unseen. In ancient scriptures, the Hebrew word 'ruach' [English spelling] could mean "breath" or "wind" or "Spirit" ... and was considered the Breath of Yahweh...

As much as we need water and food, we also need the living "ruach" or Breath of Life. Let us do our best to respect the gift of Life in our atmosphere and do what we can to reduce pollution. Planting trees to help recycle the carbon from the air can help in so many ways. Regulating emissions from our production facilities and from our vehicles can help. Let us see our actions to heal the atmosphere as part of our assistance to the whole... the organismic and interconnected web of Being... helping all our brothers and sisters, including the birds, plants, animals and all of our great Mother Earth.

"Essence of Air, enter our bodies and give the Spirit of Life to my whole being."

Peace be with you!
