  • SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

Dear Ones,

This is the last of five videos filmed on the same day. This video has to do with the upside and downside of spiritual names.

I am just too chicken to say what this blog is partly about, as I fear attack by a Neo-Hindu cult that specializes in mind control and astral rape. However, I have provided a clue about it in the fourth video filmed the same day …

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.

This is quite a day. I am not sure why.

You know, in India, when they give people spiritual names, they can have a wry sense of humor about it. In fact, I remember Yogi Bhajan coming up with some pretty funny spiritual names for people, on the basis of a gentle sense of humor and an idea about puns. But I will not go into that.

In India it can be a little more caustic. Sometimes a spiritual teacher, noting a student’s propensity towards a particular form of sin, will offer a spiritual name that points out that samskara, and is, at the same time, perceived by the student as a badge of honor … which is a bit of a sticky wicket … and a trick on the spiritual teacher’s part.

So for instance: Say a spiritual teacher should notice, in his student, a tendency towards lust … a desire for the flesh … a desire to have sex with lots of different people. And knowing that that kind of energy has a quality of redness to it, he might say to the student: From now on, I want you to wear red as a sign of your spiritual nature. At the request of your spiritual teacher, I would like you to wear red.

So, all their life, that person might wear red, not knowing that it is a gentle reminder that they should not do the very thing that red inspires a person to do.

So this is a heads up about the minds of spiritual teachers in India, and the lessons that you have been asked to learn and the things that you have been asked to do, so that you can look at them in a new Light, and change your life accordingly, if you wish to.

. . . . .

Here is another example: Suppose a person is given to arrogance, because of their many psychic abilities, and does not know that these abilities depend upon a legion of negative astral beings that are not very good looking, and do not have our good in mind.

Well, the spiritual teacher might say to them: I would like you to have this highfalutin spiritual name that makes it clear to everyone how very superior you are … how very talented you are, and how far advanced along the spiritual path.

So the student goes: Of course. This is my prerogative. I will take that name for myself.

And all their lives they might use that name, not knowing it is their teacher’s way of asking them to be less arrogant people; to walk in humility, in the ways of God.

. . . . .

I think I will spend the next few days thinking of that, in terms of the spiritual name that I received long ago: Dharm Darshan Kaur. It is a good thing to think about. I will see what I come up with.

In love, light and joy,
I Am of the Stars

Dear Ones,

In this blog I explain how to perfect the forces in our bodies. Taken together, these forces constitute the Plane of Forces, sometimes occultly termed the ‘Second Plane’.

I cannot deny that it will take hard work, but the results are excellent, with regard to safeguarding health, improving human relationships, and meeting with success in our worldly undertakings. In addition, mastering the Plane of Forces helps still the mind and the emotions. Thus the below practices go side-by-side with mastery of mind.

I have found very little written about harnessing the force of gravity. However, some say that,  in the Fifth Dimension, levitation …  which, in its purest state, derives from complete surrender to the will of God … shall be commonplace. Meantime, here are some ways I have come up with to play with gravity as a diversion from the nuisance effect of the Subconscious and Unconscious Thought Clouds of the World …

Groundedness. I find that using this mantra while standing or walking greatly increases my Awareness of gravity, and my groundedness …

  • Use this mantra while standing or walking … Link: “Mother Earth Loves Me: A Chant to Enhance the Force of Gravity,” by Alice B. Clagett, filmed on 16 February 2019; published on 3 March 2019 … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-bRh ..
  • In addition, I feel that groundedness might be ramped up by stimulating the acupressure points on the soles of the feet; for instance, by doing jumping jacks or practicing on a trampoline, or by doing foot massage. Of these, foot massage is one of my favorite techniques.

Levitation. The opposite of groundedness is levitation. In the fifth dimension, levitation is but a manifestation of understanding of the laws of physics. But in the fourth dimension, the astral realm, manifestation of this siddhi, or psychic power, may occur through rapture, or communion with God, or it may occur through what used to be termed ‘consorting with Satan’, or the black arts.

The sacred version of levitation can occur through concentration on the kundalini rising … the ‘ascending force’ described above. There is more about that here …

One’s intention in levitating is, I feel, important in regard to development of Soul wisdom. If one’s intention is to align with God’s will, then His will imbues the action. If one’s intention is self-aggrandizement in the eyes of others, then karmic laws take effect, and may adversely affect the future events that are to unfold in the levitator’s timeline.

Fohat or Will Power

I have read that fohat or will power is the power that links spirit to matter and shapes matter, as a potter (Spirit, whether Divine or human) shapes matter through will power from moment to moment. It is fohat through which we move our muscles to walk, for instance.

It is I who connect the esoteric term fohat to the self-help term ‘will power’. Though I have not seen this connection of the two terms in the esoteric literature before, I feel confident in my understanding of the force of fohat , which might be thought of as God’s power of creation manifesting in the physical world through the free will he granted us as His children.

In other words, by aligning our individual will with the great Will of God, we master the force of fohat in this reality. Because fohat has to do with will power, and because our third chakra manifests our will power, we must balance and perfect our third chakra in order to perfect our control of fohat. I recommend the following exercises to that end …

  • Chanting ‘Har’ from the navel point is a technique I practiced as my favorite mantra for about five years, and found to be very helpful … Link: “Har Haree,” by Guru Singh – Topic, 2 July 2015 … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdJ8CtXoa6g ..
  • Stretch pose is a good practice for energetic, healthy, younger people … say, in their 20s, 30s, or 40s; see … Link: Healthy Happy Holy Organization (3HO) … https://www.3ho.org/ Search the term: Stretch Pose
  • Modified plank pose is great for developing fohat. Ask your medical doctor whether this is a good exercise for you … Link: “Plank Pose: Phalakasana,” by Ekhart Yoga … https://www.ekhartyoga.com/resources/yoga-poses/plank-poseIn addition to my favorite ‘Forearm Plank’ shown in that link, some doctors recommend a modified plank pose where a person places the feet firmly on the floor, places the hands against a wall, and leans the body towards the wall. (This one seems a bit precarious to me, as the feet might slip out. On the other hand, it is easier to do than is ‘forearm plank’.)

. . . . .

In addition there are the forces of light and heat as possible energies meditation on which may allow their perfection in our human forms.

Light 

Awareness of Light has to do with development and perfection of the 6th chakra, the third-eye point energy. Try … Link: Healthy Happy Holy Organization (3HO) … https://www.3ho.org/ Search the term: Meditation for Absolutely Powerful Energy

Or, go outside, sit or stand on the ground on a sunny day. It’s alright to have a sun hat on, or to stand in partial shade. Concentrate on the sunlight interacting with the shade.

Or, try this meditation to activate the Light body …

Dhan Dhan Ram Das Guru . A Song about Sailing through Karma . comments by Alice B. Clagett

  • DHAN DHAN RAM DAS GURU: A SONG ABOUT SAILING THROUGH KARMA
  • THE NAME OF GOD WILL FERRY US THROUGH THE ‘TERRIBLE WORLD OCEAN’

Dear Ones,

DHAN DHAN RAM DAS GURU: A SONG ABOUT SAILING THROUGH KARMA

This is one of my favorite songs from the old days, when I studied kundalini yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan of Healthy, Happy, Holy Organization (3HO).

We would sing this song for hours. I especially liked the part about the Guru, our true Inner Light, having the power to carry us across what we used to term the ‘Terrible World Ocean’.
