Unity

More from our Morning Reflections series

Winter Solstice
A Morning Reflection:
The more we speak from the place of our own inner knowing, greater dimensional being, and truth, the more the veils that separate us from that deeper essence, deeper knowing, will be lifted.  It is a simple process, like an affirmation.  Yet, it is more than an affirmation.  It is a declaration of something that already is, something that is Known.

Unity is a state, or an act, of wholeness, or of completion.

It allows us to perceive the unified field of existence, of which we are a part.  Yet, paradoxically, in the highest states of Unity, it is a dissolving of all threads of what is commonly considered an individual existence, to become, while dissolving into, the consciousness of the Greater Whole, realizing, viscerally, there is One Mind interweaving through the existence of All Living Things, and, becoming that Mind, or, allowing it to flow through us.  Within this realization, there remains individual consciousness, but it is no longer bound to any concept or construct of separation.**

I am Whole.

I am All.

We can experience this unified field by giving up our entanglements to individual experiences of separation.

I am Whole.

I am part of the Whole.
I feel the mind and heart of the unified field of being moving through me, and all things, and I give up my ambitions, beliefs, and experiences, which are separate from that whole, to allow the fibers, and Source of All Life to re-enter, re-merge, to move through me, and THRIVE, again.

By stepping out, and allowing the unified field to be perceived, to be achieved, to be realized within oneself, it is done.

It can be simply by stepping outside, taking deep breaths, feeling the air permeate one’s body, breathing out, feeling the air re-enter and become again, part of the atmosphere.  “I” become part of that greater atmosphere in the same way.  There is no longer anything separating me from the greater Whole, just as my body no longer separates the air in my lungs from the atmosphere.  “I” give it back.  Willingly.  “I” allow my perceptions to permeate into the Greater Mind and Being of the Universe, whatever part of it “I” am perceiving around me, here.  “I” breathe out again.  And, now, “I” breathe in, from that Whole.  “I” am part of it again.  Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, at long last.

“My” feeling states and awareness breathes in similar patterns.  “I” breathe out into the atmosphere of the One Field of Consciousness.  “I” feel the greater field of existence.  “I” allow “myself” to experience a greater part of that, just as the air “I” breathe out, re-enters its source atmosphere.  “I” feel the unity of Life.  “I” allow my mind and perceptions to permeate All Life, and breathe that back in again to “my” One Mind.  Whether it is the air and sky in a city block, or town, or village, or the Great Kingdoms of the wilderness on a mountaintop, the Great Ocean of Life at the seashore, the River of Life along the streams and rivers where “I” live, the forests and woodlands, meadows and fields, deserts and tundra, whatever it is where “I” am experiencing, “I” breathe out and become a part of that Greater Whole.

 **It is the concept of separation which creates our anguish, our fears, our abandonment, our isolation, our terror, our resentment, our grief, and our guilt and shame.  All constructs of separation build a sense of lesser than, not enough, which purge our world of the royalties of a Unified Existence.  It is the cutting off, the severing of our perception and belief in Wholeness which creates the experience of separation, or less than whole.  By simply stepping back into the Unified Field, by realizing we are there, and have never left it, we experience it, and we realize we are part of it.  It is part of us.  This Heals, and makes us Whole. 
Every part of us that we see as isolated, wounded, less than, not valued enough, not good enough, not deserving enough, not having enough, victimized, traumatized, wounded with any flavor or concept of disorder, cannot be healed until we come back from isolation and separation, feeling alone, to feeling whole or part of the Whole, again.  It does not require judgment.  It does not require retribution.  It does not require forgiveness, though this is an excellent tool of dissolving the entanglements of isolation, in which we feel separate or abused, wounded or un-whole. 

All it truly requires, is to breathe into the Wholeness again, and breathe back from it.  This will dissolve every entangled web of misconstrued judgment or wound, of being less than, of not being worthy of, of not being whole again.  All contra-indications are dissolved by the Breath of Life, as we breathe into, and back from, a state of Unity, the Greater Whole, which is all around us, and permeates us every day, every place, every moment we breathe. 
Where are we focusing our breath?
This is what will bring us back to Life.
These are the steps we must take, to feel Whole, Alive, Part of the Whole again.

It is not the modality that matters, but the perception, and action, of re-entering a state of Wholeness.

Of, Unity, with All Life.

Blessings to All

If you have not had the opportunity yet, please read more in our prior articles.
Partake of the many exercises, mp3’s, interviews, and more, we have given in our vast resources on line.
And, should you choose, join with us in our upcoming programs, which will give extraordinarily rich opportunity to experience, and enter into vivid relationship to these principles of life, of sound, of healing, and consciousness.
We have an entire 3 year training in sound healing you can take one week, several parts of the first year, or the entire training.
In our upcoming outdoor work, we enter and explore living and harmonious relationship with the very elements of Creation, the elements of nature, the ancestral beings, wisdom and memories which reside in ancient natural power sites, and ancient, powerful ceremonial sites, like the stone chambers of Vermont.  (These mysterious stone sites are all over the Northeast, but we have entered extraordinarily magical relationship with the energies and WisdomKeepers of the sites we have worked with, for years, in Vermont.)  Come and be with us.
All of our current, upcoming practices, may be viewed here.

Twin Stars:

Divine Self; Divine Purpose.

Our Divine Self and Divine Purpose hold the yoke which binds us to this lifetime.
Until we fully understand and awaken our Divine Nature, and embody it in complete and harmonies alignment with our purpose in Life, we shall continue the dance of seeding and unfolding of karma, the law of reciprocity.

Our Divine self holds the essential nature, the Light and Wisdom of the Self, to embody and awaken fully to Who We Are.

Our Divine Purpose holds the Life Force, the energy necessary to bring us to that place of fulfillment, of Self Realization of our Essence and Reason for Being.

of the Divine Feminine
as the Heart of Creation
_________________________________
The Sacred Feminine      
She comes in many forms.  The Mother of All Life.  In some traditions, she is the formless, the Void of vesica piscesCreation, from which all Life Springs.  In others, she is the face of Creation, that which is visible, tangible, that we can touch, love, and interact with.
No matter the tradition, no matter her form, the Sacred Feminine is a Source Point for All Life.
By honoring her, by entering in 'right', or harmonious relationship with her, we deepen our awareness of, and connection to All Life.  It is a good thing to do.

 or the benefit of those whom have not read too many of my articles,
the term ‘we’ is often interwoven into these articles, as they are written with, and often spoken directly from, direct intervention from the great council, of ‘high holy beings’ who guide and illumine this work.
 
Many blessings,
Zacciah 


Some of our 2014 practices, some will be repeated in 2015:

Sacred Sound Healing, Sacred Earth Hearing retreat
Sacred Sounds, Sacred Earth
The Sounds of the SHAMAN

A 5 Day Shamanic Sacred Sound Retreat 
July, 2015

Therapeutic/Shamanic Sound practices, Sacred Ceremony for Healing the Earth and Each Other,
Accessing Ancient Sitesand Earth Wisdom

In Sacred Sounds, Sacred Earth, Songs of the Shaman, we will focus on how to use sound to enhance our private and professional lives.  Then, we shall, also, stretch out into nature, to work with the elements and ancient sites.  And, we shall learn to enter ceremonial states, for the benefit of the Earth, with the Great Grandfather drum(s) we use in our practices.

 Lions Gate, NH, VT
AUGUST 16-23, 2014
In LIONSGATE:  Awakening the Dragon, we shall enter pristine natural and ancient ceremonial sites every day, bathe in exquisite mountain lakes, and waterfalls, and, hike the high peaks of Vermont and New Hampshire, which form a perfect Star Tetrahedron.  Don’t be too concerned, we do not do so much climbing, and really, not that much hiking, see our itinerary and logistics for explanations of such things.)  We pamper ourselves in the evenings with great lodging and meals in prestigious retreats and inns, wherever possible.  And, we ‘seed’ the potential of ‘heaven on earth’ into a living prayer wheel created through our work, in collaboration with the elemental forces of nature, and the high holy beings guiding our work.  It is a journey of great personal discovery, empowerment, rejuvenation, and healing which we experience, followed by an act of incredible service to the planet, as called upon, by these elemental beings, drawing upon the dragon currents of living energies which carry the power of our work from all dimensional spaces we have worked in, for the entire week, into the womb of the Mother, through one of the ceremonial chambers, to gestate these seeds of potential, for the benefit of All.
