Hello my friend, I am so grateful to be able to connect with you in this way. In today escalating energies of the Summer Solstice, we feel called to join in our understanding the people who are feeling despair, lack, and depression.
Depression means that somehow anger is in us in a negative state. Depression is a negative state of anger. The word depressed is a great indication, it says something is being pressed; that is the meaning of depressed. We are pressing something inside, and when anger is pressed too much it becomes sadness. Sadness is a negative way of being angry.
The reality is “source energy” simply responds to who we are. What our mind is, what our emotions are and how we are right now, will simply manifest in every action that we perform in the world, thus bringing more of what we are experiencing right this minute, that’s why we are always learning together and sharing ways to be present and happy rather than letting a running program that has been imposed by our surrounding to dictate who we are.
So, whatever we are, existence gives us more of that. If we have many flowers within our being, a million times more flowers will shower upon us, it is the law. If we have a deep depression, then existence helps that too, a million times more depression will come to us. Whatever we are will always come knocking at our door day in and day out. The genius decision we will ever make is to switch poles from depression to true fulfillment and true living, and that can happen without any conflict rather with ease. In fact, what comes after depression often miraculous because of the energy which has been locked inside of us waiting dormant to explode into being.
If we suffer from depression, this simply means we are very sensitive and we have repressed too many emotions inside, be it through lack of self-expression where we were told not to talk, not to laugh, to lower our voice, until we’ve lost completely our connection to our real voice. Depression is nothing but repression. If we are not allowed to express who we authentically are, depression happens!
In our community we share the knowledge with each other on how important to express ourselves fully through diverse ways like; Dancing Meditation, or through heavy breathing techniques, singing, screaming and so on. There are many ways of expression that we can use to unlock our true potential. In expressing who we are all that has been repressed in the unconscious, will be unburdened, we suddenly become well-balanced, healthier and alive, and the illusion of depression simply falls on its own. There are other natural methods to transcend depression which I will share with you at the end.
Personally, I have been in that state of awareness before in my early teens till my mid 20’s and I understand the agony of being oneself, the torture of just existing. Of course, little that I know it was the period where love, compassion, abundance, stability and other amazing things were being prepared, life was loaded with limitless possibilities waiting dormant. My only escape was daydreaming, not knowing that all the beauty, the love, the compassion that I was dreaming of will one day be a reality. Even today, I’m still fulfilling and manifesting realities that are linked to my early age depression. And the reason is that I used my depression at the time to create positive realities within and I lived in them despite the exterior harsh reality I was experiencing then.
My friend our ego is the source of all the problems, all the wars, all the conflicts, all the jealousies, fear, depression. Feeling oneself as a failure, continuously comparing with others makes everybody hurt tremendously because we can’t have everything. Ego is surrounded with depression, with anxiety, with anguish, with all kinds of ideas. We can clearly see it evident in people who have egoistic traits, they are never happy.
If we compare ourselves with the people who are “greater” in some way than us, we will become bitter. life will become poisoned by the comparison. We will remain always in a state of depression, as if existence has deceived us, betrayed us as if we have been let down. Or if we compare ourselves with people who are in some way lesser than us, then we tend to become very egoistic. This is one of the reasons why narcists and egoists are always surrounded by people smaller than themselves. They collect this kind of people so that they can look bigger than they are by comparison.
Whatever it is, sadness, anger, depression, unhappiness — be with it. And you will suddenly witness that if you remain with sadness, sadness changes into a beautiful thing, sadness becomes a depth. If we remain with anger, not thinking about, just being with it, anger is transformed; it becomes the pure energy of forgiveness. If we remain with lust, lust takes on a different quality; it becomes love.
Let’s remember this: Nothing lasts forever; so the depression will go. And when it leaves, after the depression, after the night, there will be a dawn and the sun will rise. If we can be alert at that moment. We will be happy that we were depressed. We will be grateful that we are depressed because only through our depression was this pristine state of happiness possible!
When depression is there, allow it to be. No need to get depressed about it. If we want to remove it sooner by medication, we will get depressed even more. If we fight it, we will create a secondary depression that is dangerous. The first depression is beautiful on its own, it is God-given. The second depression is our own. it is mental because people cannot wait, and then they will move into mental grooves.
If we are not depressed about our depression we can contact, we can commune, we can enter this heavenly gate. And once we know it, we have learned one of the ultimate laws of life: that life uses the opposite as a teacher, as a background.
The most amazing thing is to have hope while one is in a funk. Hope means simply a hopeful attitude about everything. An optimistic view. Looking at the golden side of things. Whatever happens, we remain hopeful. Depression comes only if we look at the wrong side of things. People with this optimistic attitude plant the greatest seeds in their minds while they’re depressed, they escape their reality by daydreaming and they achieve the impossible when the clouds are gone.
The Keyword is Trust: that everything is for the good. This trust that everything is for the good is multidimensional; this is religiousness which comes from the heart. And if we trust that everything is for the good, we will come to realize the divine. The divine can be realized through such trust. We will simply learn that even the storm is happening for the sake of the silence. Evil exists for the sake of good; death exists for the sake of life; suffering and agony are just situations in which endless possibilities can happen right after.
If we know that agony exists for the sake of ecstasy we cannot be agonized. If we know and feel and realize that suffering exists for the sake of happiness we cannot be made to suffer. It is impossible. Because we have gone beyond the clutches of the world, we have taken a jump out of the wheel of karma.
Techniques for Anxiety and Depression:
The basic idea is to start with some attention to breathing and body posture. Learning to sit in “Seiza” posture or “lotus” position will work too. Assume straight posture and rather than either thinking or imagining anything or directly trying to stop thinking, keep bringing your attention back to your breathing.
Now, for some people “breathing” is too diffuse and it’s impossible to really concentrate on that, so in some training, we focus through “one point” on the “Hara”, the small area just about two fingers below the navel and about one inch inside it. Most people who are depressed, have a closed Hara. Hara is one of the most important energy centers in our body system, life started there and life will end from there.
Please note that the reason this kind of “one point” mind training in meditation works is that it brings the awareness, energy, and attention down from our upper body where it’s getting knotted up as “thoughts” and very uncomfortable emotions (in the neck, jaw, head, and shoulders especially) and constricting the circulation of CHI “The life force energy”.
Each time the attention wavers, which it will, we gently bring it back to the Hara “one point”!
If this is difficult at first, there are two even easier methods (I actually use them all) and they can be used for anything not only anxiety and depression.
1. The first is to light a candle (a small candle in a dish or a glass, is best so you don’t get distracted by dripping wax) and focus all your attention on the flame of the candle as the “one point,” getting completely absorbed into it by bringing your attention back each time it begins to wander into thoughts or images of the past and future, any worries you might have.
2. The second is to use a small indoor fountain that has a stream of water running very quietly over pebbles. This can be very absorbing. It’s the same idea: you listen to the trickling water (while sitting firmly yet comfortably in Seiza or Lotus position) and the changing, subtle sound of the water is your “one point.” Each time your attention begins to waver, you gently return it to the sound of the trickling water.
Seiza position is by itself a powerful and stable posture, and even more so if you completely relax into it by dropping your energy downward; always downward to the Hara, to the lower body, the knees, the feet, the hands. Always drop Chi downward, because in anxiety attacks the body’s energy rushes upward and overloads the head and sometimes gets choked and knotted up very painfully in the chest and/or throat.
By using these simple yet powerful techniques along with “one pointed” concentration we can overcome any anxious thought/feeling/depression. Better still, we will soon directly realize that the nature of the mind is truly an infinite space where we can use to fulfill our deepest longing and our true purpose for being.
Much Love,

My friend, temper is a sign intelligence, but it happens against ourselves. It has no use other than that. This useless intelligence is called Anger.
Anger can also be a substitute emotion. Meaning that sometimes people make themselves angry so that they don’t have to feel pain. They change their feelings of pain into anger because it feels better to be angry than it does to be in pain. This changing of pain into anger may be done consciously or unconsciously.
Becoming angry also creates a feeling of righteousness, power and being better than others which is not present when someone is in pain. When we are angry, we’re always angry with cause.
We can use anger to convert feelings of vulnerability and helplessness into feelings of control and power. Some people develop an unconscious habit of transforming almost all of their vulnerable feelings into anger, so they can avoid having to deal with them. The problem becomes that even when anger distracts us from the fact that we feel vulnerable, we still at some level feel vulnerable. Anger cannot make pain disappear, it only distracts us from it. And sooner or later vulnerability will surface in other creative methods by the subconscious mind.
So, anger generally does not resolve or address the problems that made us feel fearful or vulnerable in the first place, and it can create new problems, including social and health issues. It is essential though to understand and recognize where anger is coming from and the fact that we can use it towards a certain outcome.
When anger comes, it is the same anger that we have been through before, so nothing new. But this time we can do one thing new, which we have never done before; every time we get involved with anger is the time to just watch as if it does not belong to us, as if it is somebody else’s anger. And we are in for a great surprise if we do: it will simply disappear within seconds. It will disappear without any struggle, it leaves behind it a tremendously beautiful and silent and loving state.
In case we are unable like most people to control our anger and implement these types of techniques when anger happens, we can do a tryout. We simply try to recall an angry situation or an idea, or a person that triggered anger within us before, we try to recall that and when anger is present, we try to watch it without stopping, until anger disappears completely and replaced with a state of pure energy. By doing this we have a better chance of handling anger in certain situations which will be a very helpful thing in our lives.
The same energy that could have become a fight with the anger that is left within us, is simply transformed into pure energy of delight, just energy, without any name, without any objective. We allow energy to be pure. Either it is anger, or hate, or love, or greed, or desire, all these are backed up with pure energy, a delight. And true intelligence is to allow it to be in its purity.
So, my friend, every time anything arises in you, is a great opportunity to experience pure energy. Just watch, and the anger will go. It may raise a little dust every now and then, but that dust also settles on its own; we don’t have to settle it. we simply wait. We don’t move from waiting and watching, and soon we will find ourselves surrounded by a pure energy that has not been used in fighting, in repressing, or in being angry. Once we know the secret of using the wide spectrum of who we are, we will enjoy every emotion; and every emotion arising in us becomes a great opportunity. Just by watching, we bring a shower of delight on our being. Slowly, slowly all these emotions will disappear; they will not come anymore, usually they don’t come uninvited. Watchfulness, or alertness, or awareness, or consciousness, are all different names of the same phenomenon which is “witnessing”. That is the keyword!
Eternal Blessings,

Unlimited Stream Of Divine Love
The most significant thing in our human experience is our relationship to Love. Love is almost always addressed to somebody else, most of the time to one person. When in fact, Love should become just like breathing to us. It should be born out of us, like a stream of fresh water pouring into the ocean of life.
We have been conditioned and taught to love the other; we hear it so much that it has become a mantra to most people. The whole world talks about Love. Much poetry is written about loving the other, but it seems only a compensation for our own emotional gaps.
What we miss in life, we put into poetry. What we go on missing in life, we put into films and books, and also into fantasies, when in fact, Love is absolutely absent, because the first step has not yet been taken. And it is self-Love.
How can we give something we do not have? In fact, whenever we feel attracted or “in Love” with someone, it is simply because of something they possess that we believe will heal what we dislike about ourselves. Whenever there is something missing within you, you go on searching for it in others.
So we narrow Love down to one channel, and by doing that, we undermine its miraculous effect and its source. Love should be like breathing to us, yet how can we breathe for just one person?
Understanding the concept of Love and its source gives you an infinite tool in which to direct this unlimited stream of Divine Love to all, without any reservation. This is how you become a powerful healer, knowing and living the true definition of what Love is (self-Love).
Of course, there is always someone special who deserves your extra special care and attention, but that person must also mirror your state of awareness in concern to what Love truly is. “No gaps to fill”
Knowing the true source of your being gives you a wider perception of the true nature of Love. Whatever you do, Love goes on overflowing. It is a pure and natural state, and it is your stream of beingness, that comes of your trust and “self-Love.” Then it is not a question of being in Love or not anymore; it is a question of becoming the embodiment of Love.
With Love and Joy,

Blessons are the spiritual exercise which occur in one’s life to assist them in their full spiritual unfoldment. If one is into judgment , then one sees Blessings and Lessons in their life. Yet these Blessings/Lessons are one and the same when observed from a higher dimensional level. So, what does one do with Blessons? First you give thanks for all your Blessons. Each Blesson is designed to assist you in the unfoldment of all your abilities and powers. Blessons are your path back to your own spiritual command center.
Now obviously, some Blessons are more enjoyable than others but they are all Blessons. Those events in your life that are uncomfortable are still Blessons for which one gives thanks. Why would one give thanks for uncomfortable Blessons? Because, by giving thanks for all Blessons, one shows they are at the level of consciousness where they see all events as Blessons; as the spiritual exercise which they really are. Even Blessons contain spiritual exercise relating to ego and discernment.
Unpleasant Blessons, are those events and situations that create a disharmonic effect within your current life and bring change in some major way. We must Understand that all Blessons are events and situations that bring change into our life. Within spiritual exercises are the Blessings in Lessons and Lessons in Blessings. Four words which can sum up everything are ” This Too Shall Pass”. How one views their spiritual adventures in consciousness can turn a Lesson into Blessing, or one can turn a Blessing into a Lesson.that was about blessons will continue later about blessons as well.
When one makes great leaps in consciousness and enjoys exciting spiritual adventures then a spiritual exercise will unfold. How one reacts to their visits to higher levels of consciousness determines whether a Blessing type event unfolds or a Lesson type event occurs. If one just accepts their Celestial adventures, gives thanks for the Blesson and only reports the experience, then additional Blessings can rapidly unfold. We know that people in high states of consciousness have a higher vibratory rate than others. Many have made statements about vibratory rates over the years but what does it mean, that a person has good “vibes” or “Good Vibrations”. A person’s higher vibratory rates means they are using sections of their brain which mainstream scientists dismiss. This portion of the brain is the entryway to ones higher consciousness levels and the abilities contained therein. This area of the brain contains energy frequencies which exceed the sensitivity measurements of current technological instrument.
This is why most scientists say that we do not use the major portion of our brain. This area of the brain generates brain wave patterns far above those which our scientist’s current primitive equipment has been able to register and classify as “Alpha”, “Beta”, “Theta” etc. brain waves.
Ones ego is actually a safety mechanism during ones spiritual evolution and growth. Some people think ego has to be eliminated for spiritual growth. That is a impossibility, for your ego is part of you. The ego is there to warn you of various things, it plays memory tapes for you and remember there have been times in everyone’s lives that ego seemed to be their friend. Ego can be of great help in spiritual growth because it is a connection to your higher states of consciousness when it is in a state of equanimity. Where one becomes unattached to the outcome of events around them, when one can view all events in their life as Blessons, when one gives thanks for all events or Blessons in one’s life, then the ego can rest.
It doesn’t have to warn you of “Lessons”, it can also let you relax and observe the outcome of Blessons and events in your life. This process allows one easier and quicker access to ones abilities and powers. Now, unpleasant Blessons do disrupt one’s life, however it is how one reacts to a disruptive Blesson that determines the next stage in their spiritual growth. If one gets upset or angry over a Blesson, it simply means that one did not pass that spiritual exercise. It also means, the spiritual exercise will be repeated at a later date. However, when one gives thanks for the Blessons, it means they have passed the Blesson and it doesn’t need to be repeated. (This “thanks” has to come from the heart and not just from the lips.)
After giving thanks for the Blesson, one should look at the event or Blesson that just occurred from other dimensional levels. Find “something” in the Blesson to use in spreading Love and Light, “something” for you to use to grow spiritually. A true sign of Self Empowerment is the ability to take “Blessons” or spiritual exercises to a higher level of consciousness and create something out of the “Blesson” to spread the Love and the Light.

Karma is the result of your actions. Karma is also the sum of your learning experiences at this level of existence. One could say that one’s karma is the total of all one’s learning experiences from all their lifetimes. In life, there are no rewards, there are no punishments, there are only consequences. The bottom line of karma is that it is the net worth of all one’s actions, in all lifetimes. Karma is the summary of all the experiences one has encountered in human bodies throughout all their lifetimes and incarnations.
Questions one should have about their karma include some of the following. What is one’s net total karma at this point in their life? Is everything balanced? Is there anything a person has left to learn at their current level of consciousness from some past karmic incident? Karma is merely a process to help and guide us on our spiritual paths back to the highest level of consciousness in all creation, the Creator of All That Is.
Karma is a teaching tool. What happens when the student is at a level of consciousness where they are ready to graduate in a Personal Ascension and there is karma remaining from actions they performed at lower levels of consciousness? It is at this point in one’s life that a teacher will appear in one form or another to sever the outdated karmic ties of the student. When a person reaches a certain level of consciousness, karma can easily be removed for it is no longer necessary as a training guide. Now when karma is removed, ALL karma is removed, all the “good” and the “bad”.
Why?
How else can it be done?
At our level of consciousness, what we see as “good” and “bad”, is viewed quite differently in the higher dimensional levels of creation. Celestial beings do not see “Blessings” and “Lessons”, they see only “Blessons”.
So when karma is removed, it is all removed. A person is literally reborn and rebirthed when all their karma is removed. This is what the term “Born Again” refers to in Ancient Scriptures and embedded within various cultures. It means the removal of ones karmic issues, or in other words-all karma.
