Perfect Reality
As I came back to this "reality" this morning, after leaving the "dream" world, I began to wonder would it be possible to have an absolutely perfect existence in this world if we loved ourselves totally. After all, the inner determines the outer, right? So if we loved ourselves %100 then our outer reality would have to manifest %100 love.

Gains Journal
After reading the last Release magazine, I went out and finally bought a releasing journal. I was trying to just keep a word document, but that wasn't working out too well. The first gain I wrote in it, was about the journal itself. It is a a very nice leather journal with geometric designs on it from India. The regular price on it, was 19.95, but Barnes and Noble had it for 50% off! Whoo hooo!
Okay, so now I have this nice looking releasing journal. Of course, now my ego wants to use it, because it is so nice looking, but in order to use it, I have to be releasing so I can get gains. Nice trick Lester...lol. I've already decorated it by placing the 6 steps and the general releasing questions on the inside front cover!

Fear of what?
Lester Levenson says that our final obstacle,that we all must face when coming back to our true being-ness, is the fear of death. I was thinking about that this morning as I was waking up, wondering what time the trash man would come. He came early last week, and I missed him. I was asking myself why I didn't just pop up and take out the trash. Well...It's cold outside. Then I thought, so what, I'm not going to freeze to death, right? Lol...Maybe Lester has something there.

Here is an Intention of Love and Peace to the Middle East
Back a life time ago as a young grunt with the Decorated 101st Airborne Division, I had the opportunity to serve as part of the Multinational Force and Observers. We were tasked to watch for aggressive action across the Sinai desert by either Israel or Egypt, and to report this activity as part of the agreement from the Camp David peace accords.
The importance of the mission was kind of lost on me then, but with all the non-loving feelings in the middle east now, I'm glad I was able to be part of something peaceful.
May all those in arms over there now, especially those destroying each other on their own Holy Lands, find love and peace in their hearts for one another.

Munay, the Way of Love-The First Inca Law part 1
Munay, the Way of Love-The First Inca Law part 1
by Akin Phoenix
"Munay
First of the three Inca laws. It is the law of love. Rather than only an emotion, love is seen as an attitude of respect and appreciation for everyone and everything." (Delgado, 173).
Love is our natural state of "being-ness". When we let go of the fear that we have allowed into our existence, we find peace and acceptance where love and gratitude are natural and there is no need for separate acknowledgement of these states of being-ness as temporary emotions or feelings. The Quero natives of the Peruvian Andes understand this and have no words for "thank you".
We have evidence from our past observations that fear brings more fear into our lives here in our modern world. Meanwhile up in the high altitudes of Peru, "We are all one in the Divine Pacha's consciousness of love that we call 'tucuy munayniyoc.' We live in this state here in Machu Picchu and share in the joy and abundance of the Pacha." (Delgado, 150). Is it possible to bring this divine state back to us and share in the "joy and abundance of the Pacha" just by changing our attitudes? Can we transform our immediate environment into one of love and acceptance, while we live in a land so focused on what is non-loving? Let us go on an adventure together, and check out if our friends from the Andes with these old ways of thinking have anything to share with us.
Grab a notebook, writing instrument, and a mirror. Look at your image in the mirror, and write down the feelings that come up. See if you can let go of any non-loving feelings that come to your consciousness. They want to leave. Just let them go. Relax and be gentle with yourself. Let your judgments about yourself go. Feel the energy of Love that rises to replace the fear that was allowed to leave. Now consciously send yourself Love and Approval just because you can. If you get to a point where you can't do it anymore, look for those non-loving, resisting feelings that are attempting to leave, and say "Yes" to them, so they too can leave. Then continue sending that Loving, Approving energy to yourself. Manifest this state of being within you again, and see if your outer life changes. Do this for 15 minutes to 2 hours a day or whatever your true being-ness needs to set you free of your fears. Write down the apparent coincidences that occur from doing these exercises. This is key to proving to yourself what you have always known.
Our egos have had many years to practice holding us in a fearful place, and do not take kindly to this Love stuff. It is okay to start again, if you stop, or miss a day. Find the courage of your inner warrior and persist with loving yourself. "As within, so without" (Three Initiates ) is the lesson of the masters. Let's prove them right, or wrong to ourselves, because sacred ground is whereever you are, and the only master is you!

Conducted a wonderful workshop yesterday with the Famous Amazing Ray of Sunshine Dr. Maya Phoenix, and the equally Wonderful Dr. Gwen MacGregor. The participants had a wonderful time, and I believe they took another step forward on their Mystickal Voyage.
Keeping gains...
Okay..in order to keep gains, you have to actually keep gains somewhere right? Anyway, I went out and bought a new journal just for keeping gains. It is a very nice leather journal I bought from B&N. And the first gain I bought in it was I was able to purchase it for 50% off. Whoo hooo!
