So Hum Meditation for ‘High Surf’ in the Sky This Coming Week . by Alice B. Clagett

Dear Ones,

Here is a description of the So Hum Meditation that may help us ride the ‘high surf’ in the skies of the autumn equinox 2022.

There has been a humdinger of a geomagnetic storm last week, and more may be on the way in the leadup to Autumn Equinox, which will take place on 22 September 2022.

I suggest using this So Hum meditation to stabilize our human energy fields for the next few weeks …

So Hum Meditation for Rough Seas in the Sky
Adapted and Compiled by Alice B. Clagett
6 September 2022

Here is the  So Hum [Soham] Mantra technique recommended by Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati as a very good aid in establishing evenness of breath …

Imagine the sound Sooooooo when inhaling, and the sound Hummmmmm when exhaling. This mantra can be practiced all day long.

The practice is suggested by Swami Bharati in this article … Link: “Kundalini Awakening 2,” by Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati https://swamij.com/kundalini-awakening-2.htm

Some sources suggest that a person visualize energy flowing up the spine while imagining the sound Sooooooo and inhaling; and then that a person visualize energy flowing down the spine while imagining the sound Hummmmmm and exhaling. I like this idea very much, as it seems to me that it will even out the ascending and descending forces in the spine. Thus a person may sense all four minds and their related chakras with each inhale-exhale.

‘Sohum’ or ‘Soham’ means “That I Am.” By ‘that’ is meant He [or She, or ‘Father/Mother/God’], the Supreme One who dwells beyond time and space. So I have read. For more on the mantra, see … Link: “Soham (Sanskrit),” in English Wikipedia … https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soham_(Sanskrit) ..

Breathe In Breathe Out . a poem by Alice B. Clagett

Written on 17 August 2021 and published on 6 September 2021

  • VIDEO BY ALICE
  • SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

Dear Ones,

Here is a poem about the causal realm and the Eternal Now …

VIDEO BY ALICE

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

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

I have this for you today:

You place your eyes
Upon your minds
And not your hearts.

Because of that
The Causal Realm
Unfolds for you.

Place your eyes
Upon your heart,
And in your heart,
A sacred word
For the Name of God.

Breathe in,
Breathe out
That sacred word,
And time will have
No meaning for you.

. . . . .

That is it for today.

God bless you all,
And keep you safe,
And be with you
Through all your days.

In love, light and joy,
Alice B. Clagett,
I Am of the Stars

‘Nose Knows’ Visualization / Meditation to Still the Astral Chatter . channeled by Alice B. Clagett

Written and published on 20 May 2021

  • VISUALIZATION / MEDITATION TO STILL THE ASTRAL CHATTER
    • How to Do it
    • Benefits

Dear Ones,

If the astral chatter gets too intense, here is a visualization / meditation that may help …

VISUALIZATION / MEDITATION TO STILL THE ASTRAL CHATTER

How to Do It

Imagine that you are slowly and smoothly breathing in and out through your nose, but your nose is now located at your right eye (or your right ear, if you prefer). When you breath in and out, imagine you can feel the air going into, and then out of, your right eye (or your right ear) …

As you breathe this way, count the inhalations of the breath from one to five; then repeat, counting to five over and over again.

Benefits

Through the imagined relocation of the nose, the visualization directs prana  to your right brain. That side of the brain has to do with living in the ‘Now’, and not with cause-and-effect, which is what creates a timeline (whether a physical timeline or an astral timeline). The right brain does not support the notion of temporal limitation, or confinement of Awareness within a timeline created through a cause-and-effect construct. The right brain does not create or support the astral chatter or astral stories that glom and propagate in the noosphere, as these stories depend on cause and effect, and upon an imaginary or astral ‘timeline’. When Awareness is placed on the right brain, the notions of cause-and-effect … the notion of time itself … drops away. We are left with the freedom to react in multitemporal reality, which is, in fact, the understanding of Earth herself right now.

I have noticed that some of the astral chatter comes from the construct ‘geography’ … the notion of dimensional limitation. For instance, it may have to do with the thought that we cannot avoid astral chatter with our neighbors, or maybe our family. In our left brains, we have the notion that we are chained to our homes, and therefore chained to our families or to the people with whom we life, or to the people who live near us. These are left-brain cause-and-effect notions based on physical reality … on seeing other people around us, for instance.

But our energy body is a discrete, singular entity in relation …. not to our family or to our neighbors … but rather in relation to Spirit, to our Soul, to that Divine Spark within us. Thus the left-brain notion of territorial confinement, like its notion of temporal confinement, is but an artificial construct.

The right brain does not support the construct ‘geography’ … the notion of dimensional limitation, or confinement of Awareness within geographic boundaries. Thus by generating pranic flow into and out of the right brain, we circumvent the artificial left-brain construct ‘geography’.

The feral drives (pack instincts) of sexual aggression and territorial aggression: female competition and male competition; striving between family members or neighbors for female dominance, male dominance, or one-upmanship; notions of males flocking together and bonding, or of females doing so; notions that packs of neighborhood men ought to ejaculate together on the astral plane, or that packs of neighborhood women ought to climax together; striving for alpha or relegation to beta pack ordering; and shunning of a ‘pariah’ or ‘sin-eater’ as an outcast from the imagined astral pack … these all have to do with notions of physical geographic limitations developed in Stone Age times, when there were only about 50,000 human beings on Earth.

For survival purposes, these people aggregated into clans whose members lived in close proximity. Our current notions of geographic limitations with regard to the people we know have to do with feral drive hardwiring written into our subconscious minds in Stone Age and also in much earlier times. These instinctual notions roam through our dreamtime realm and through our astral realm, roping down our astral chatter to subconsciously perceived geographic restrictions.

But when Awareness is placed on the right brain, the notions of clan and tribe, of subconscious instinctual behaviors, drops away. We are left with the freedom to react in multidimensional reality, which is, in fact, where Earth herself resides right now.

Counting along with the breath is a famous Zen Buddhist form of meditation, and one that I like very much. I have noticed, though, that when I count along with the breath while placing my Awareness on the left brain, I am quickly cut short by the tendency of the left brain to step into my counting process with cause-and-effect stories that seem ‘juicier’ or more emotionally fulfilling than the dry notion of repeatedly counting to five or 10.

The above meditation circumvents these left-brain sabotage efforts of my left brain and leaves the field of my mind clear to create the numeric repetitions without interruption. Thus for long intervals (to get temporal about it) I can waylay the astral chatter through a visualization and meditation that moves me from temporospatial misery and enchainment … as in a sad or scary Hollywood movie … to a right brain space of effortless temporospatial freedom.

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