Post No. 639 - For Tomorrow Night's Meditation



As a reminder, I started this meditation regime based on the idea of generating the energy of peace, as set out in the channelled teachings of “The Nine” in Phyllis V. Schlemmer's "The Only Planet of Choice" (see p. 279 - well, in my copy at least :) ), which was the follow up to the brilliant "Briefing for the Landing on Planet Earth" by Stuart Holroyd [2]. “The Nine” proposed getting twelve (or a minimum of three) people to meditate for eighteen minutes (or a minimum of nine minutes) at 9 PM Sunday in Jerusalem, which is based on using the Magickal Principle of Harmony (of time), from the Watery Magickal Law of Frequency, and the Magickal Principle of Effect, from the Earthy Magickal Law of Strength and Common Sense. In other words, get everyone working together, at the same time, and as many people as possible, for as much impact as possible. Now, that is valid, but getting people to work at the same time across the world is an incredibly difficult proposition – and, in my experience (including for multinational companies in my day job), leads to fewer people taking part. That experience also includes my time at the Correllian Shrine of the Crystal Web, where one member (not me) pointed out that they had found that having people perform work at the same hour by their local time can build up a wave of energy going around the entire planet, which is the Magickal Principle of Dynamism from the Fiery Magickal Law of the Taijitu. That worked well there, and so I have adopted it for these meditations. I also am happy for every person who wants to contribute to do so, rather than waiting until there is a group of a minimum size, which relies on harmony of focus being a way of overcoming physical separation (which is the Magickal Principle of Magickal Distance, from the Airy Magickal Law of Distance).

“The Nine” are the first source I can remember talking about Balanced Positive, which is where I get the term BPLF [1], but I also include the use of clearing, so there is more than one difference to the original proposal. However, the more people who join in, the better.

I would also like to point out that other people have been working on the use of coordinated, group meditation for beneficial effect, including the Lucis Trust's Triangles network (which has been running for many decades, since before World War Part Two, I think), the Correllian Tradition's 'Spiritual War for Peace' (begun in 2014), the Healing Minute started by the late, great Harry Edwards (held at 10Am and 10PM local time each day, and one can pay to be officially registered. This also has been running for decades); and a Druid ritual for peace, to be performed at each Full Moon (begun in 2014, I think).

To further set the mood for this work, here are a couple of quotes from this surprising article:


Matters from this week include the following (opportunities are shown in green; good news is shown in purple; WARNING: some of these links may contain triggers around issues such as violence, sexual assault, discrimination, etc):

  • permanent issue: may all actual and potential BPLF Leaders be kept safe against any/all attempts to divert them away from effectively fulfilling their role of Service to Life by being effective BPLF Leader(s), including keeping them undetectable to the nonBPLF and keeping all their Significant Others inviolable against being used for indirect psychic attack (including also being kept undetectable to the nonBPLF), all as is for the Highest Spiritual Good;

From the UN’s Daily Briefings:

  • winter continues to cause problems in Syria;
  • the depredations of Boko Haram in Nigeria are also of concern;
  • talks between the various sides are continuing regarding the conflict in Libya;
  • the fight against Ebola is going well;
  • anniversaries have been marked: he annual UN Holocaust Remembrance Day Service at Park East Synagogue, remembrance of the more than 6,000 people who died 20 years ago in the Great Hanshin Awaji Earthquake, the 5th anniversary of the Haiti earthquake, and 23rd Anniversary of the Peace Agreements that put an end to the civil war in El Salvador;
  • the UN Secretary-General has held talks in Honduras on Honduras’s social and economic issues, as well as concerns regarding Honduras’s security and human rights situation;
  • in the Security Council, Jens Anders Toyberg-Frandzen, Assistant Secretary-General for Political Affairs, has regretted that neither the Palestinians nor the Israelis have taken the challenging steps, or made the bold decisions, required to begin the process of reversing the ever-widening trust deficit between the two sides. Instead, we have witnessed developments which may unfortunately further reduce the likelihood of talks resuming in the future;
  • the head of the African Union-U.N. mission has visited West Darfur to assess the security situation;
  • the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein, has appealed to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to halt the punishment of Raef Badawi, who was publicly flogged 50 times last Friday and is reportedly due to be flogged again every Friday until his sentence of 1,000 lashes has been carried out;
  • the UN Special Envoy for Global Education, Gordon Brown, has said that the world must unite to condemn Boko Haram's new barbaric low with their evil use of young girls as suicide bombers to carry out their murderous attacks;
  • the UN Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO) and Congolese army has launched joint operations against the FRPI;
  • the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and the Brookings Institute have launched a new report on key developments in the protection of internally displaced people since humanitarian reforms began in 2005;
  • Civil society organizations around the world have launched an UN-supported digital movement to adopt a new sustainable development agenda and a global agreement on climate change, and is encouraging everyone to use the hashtag #Action2015 to raise awareness to the need for world leaders to take action this year;
  • there are concerns about the renewed fighting in eastern Ukraine; 
  • the Deputy Secretary-General, Jan Eliasson, told the Security Council that: peacebuilding is most effective when political, security and development actors support a common, comprehensive and clear strategy for consolidating peace; that strong and well-functioning institutions that are central to peacebuilding must be based on effective and inclusive political agreements (promoting inclusion means ensuring women’s equal participation in post-conflict political and development processes); peacebuilding requires sustained international political, technical and financial support; and regional actors and neighbouring countries, working together with the United Nations, can play a critical role in creating an environment conducive to sustainable peace;
  • the UN has concerns over an impasse in talks in Cyprus;
  • the Secretary-General’s Special Representative in Haiti, Sandra Honoré, and the other members of the international community in the country represented in the "Core Group" have deplored that the extraordinary session of the National Assembly, which was convened to vote on the amendments to the Electoral Law, did not take place, and are gravely concerned that the Haitian Parliament has become dysfunctional due to the fact that elections have not been held within the constitutional timeframe;
  • the Secretary-General’s Special Representative for Côte d’Ivoire, Aïchatou Mindaoudou, has briefed the Security Council on the Côte d’Ivoire: during the past six months, the country had continued to make important progress towards sustainable peace and sustained economic recovery, but work still needs to be done in areas such as the fight against impunity and the reform of the security sector, and the country still needs support to ensure a conducive environment in this election year and sustain the gains made so far. She noted that the UN Mission in the country, UNOCI, started to reduce its troops on 1st December, as requested by the Security Council, and has been restructured to be more mobile and visible, and better prepared to ensure the protection of civilians;
  • Sudanese armed forces are again preventing investigation of human rights abuses; 
  • the Secretary-General has spoken at the Indian Council for World Affairs, where he delivered a keynote address in which he discussed India’s role as a driver for peace in the region and the world, as a champion of human rights, and as a leader on clean sustainable development.

From other sites:

  • The Institute for War and Peace Reporting  reports that Syrians see migration to Europe as their only hope;
  • Human Rights Watch  urged Bahrain to drop charges relating to a Twitter post against a human rights activist; reported on Saudi Arabian actions against human rights activists;  reported on the inadequate trials of those responsible for killing 132 protestors and injuring hundreds more;  reported on the 30 years of violence, repression and corruption under former Khmer Rouge commander and now Prime Minister Hun Sen;  reported on financial and human rights problems with the Lower Brule Tribal Council;  reported on accounts of torture in Chad under the 1982 to 1990 rule of dictator Hissène Habré;  urged the USA to press Mexico to investigate abuses by security forces;
  • The “War on the Rocks” blog: at the Huffington Post, Karima Bennoune has offered six ideas to remember as we counter religious fundamentalism. She argues, “we must refuse to sign up for the clash of civilizations that both the Islamist terrorists and the Western far right have in mind, and cling to our principles: liberty, equality, brother-and-sisterhood, dignity, and universal human rights”; reports that Libya may be the scene of a proxy war between Turkey, supporting the Muslim Brotherhood, and Gulf States, who – except for Qatar – are supporting the government; and has a podcast of a lecture on the need for the USA to begin updating its alliance with South Korea in light of the changes happening in Asia;

When I look at this news, there are a few things which come to mind. Firstly, I’m not working directly on the physical, nor is this blog about that: however, there is a lot that can be done non-physically.

In general, every ‘bad news’ is something that requires:
(i) clearing of all negative energy directly associated with the event (e.g., pain, fear, etc on the part of the direct victims) or indirectly (e.g., fear, overreactions, inappropriate reactions, or seeking to outdo others’ reactions in others reached via the media);
(ii) healing of those harmed;
(iii) that those responsible be found through BPLF means and brought to BPLF justice (if otherwise, as the means shape the end, the result will a society that is lessened and a strengthening of the so-called ‘law of the jungle’); and
(iv) that BPLF inspiration be given to enable all to rise above this, and take BPLF actions that will ensure a BPLF prevention of a recurrence, in the sense that USA President John F Kennedy talked of “true and lasting peace”.

Thus, every one of these ‘bad news’ stories is an opportunity – but so are many of the ‘good news’ stories, which often requires nonBPLF units to be cleared to prevent blocking of improvements, to help those who are busting their guts and becoming exhausted trying to make good things happen, and to provide some much needed BPLF inspiration and encouragement –
   every
   single
   good
   news
   story.



More specifically, the theme that comes to mind for my work this week is that a great deal of work is already being done quietly, patiently and persistently. It seems to me that there is a need to communicate the benefits of making haste slowly more broadly – particularly in this era of the sound bite and instant gratification.


[1] BPLF = Balanced Positive (spiritual) Light Forces. See here and here for more on this.

[2] Please see here and my post "The Death of Wikipedia" for the reasons I now recommend caution when using Wikipedia. I'm also exploring use of h2g2, although that doesn't appear to be as extensive (h2g2 is intended - rather engagingly - to be the Earth edition of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy").

Love, light, hugs and blessings

My "blogiography" (list of all posts and guide as to how to best use this site) is here, and my glossary/index is here.

I started this blog to cover karmic regression-rescue (see here and here), and it grew ... See here for my group mind project, here and here for my "Pagans for Peace" project (and join me at 9 PM on Sunday, wherever you are, to meditate for peace), and here for my bindrune kit-bag. I also strongly recommend learning how to flame, ground and shield, do alternate nostril breathing, work with colour, and see also here and be flexible. 

I am a Walker upon the Path of Balanced Positivity, seeking Spiritual Maturity.
  • neither eloquence nor inarticulateness inherently indicates correctness, but, as words can kill, the right to freedom of speech comes with a DUTY to be as well-informed, objective and balanced as you can be.
  • Gnwmythr's Stropping Strap: Occam's Razor only works if  the simplest solution is actually recognised as being the simplest, rather than the one that best fits one's bigotries being labelled 'simplest'.
  • Our entire life experience, with all the many wondrous and varied people, places and events in it, is too small a sample for statistical reliability about Life. 
  • May the world of commerce and business be recognised to be a servant, not a master, of the lives of people.
  • Being accustomed to interacting via certain rules makes those rules neither right nor universal.
  • Like fire to the physical, emotions to the soul make a good servant, and a bad master.
  • The means shape the end.
  • My favourite action movie of all time is "Gandhi", although I've recently come across "Invictus" and might put that one in to that category. However, I loathe the stereotypical action movie - and, for similar reasons, I loathe many dramas, which are often emotionally violent, more so in some cases than many war films.
  • All of the above - and this blog - could be wrong, or subject to context, perspective, or state of spiritual evolution ...

Human dignity is the inherently cumulative holistic combination of human rights, wellbeing and potential, and all actions or interaction which promote, realise or facilitate same. The converse also applies: whatever degrades, diminishes or robs humans of dignity, is inherently undignified.

The “purpose” of spiritual evolution is not the attainment of “spiritual perfection” - not in the sense of not having to evolve further, at any rate, since there is no such thing. We need to evolve in order to grow - but we can take rest breaks (hopefully well earned :) ) along the way. No, the “purpose” of evolution is, rather, to perfect our ability to learn, and thus grow.

Our greatest struggle with, to borrow from pop culture, the Jedi-Sith scale, is not with the Sith, whether they are hiding or not: it is with the annoying, snotty-nosed, heroine/hero-worshipping little kid who keeps intruding, stopping us from being cool enough to be with our heroines/heroes, the big kids ...

Females, get over 'cute'. Get competent. Get trained. Get capable. Get over 'cute'. And those of you who are called Patty and Debby and Suzy, get over that. Because we use those names to infantalise females – we keep females in their 'little girl' state by the names we use for them. Get over it. If you want to be taken seriously, get serious.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good [people] to do nothing.

There are risks and costs to a program of action. But they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.
