November 15, 2015 Meditation for Forgiveness Meditation for Forgiveness
Dear Friends,
Today I am releasing my newest guided meditation entitled Meditation for Forgiveness. The word forgiveness can bring up powerful feelings and emotions in people, and for good reason. When we think of forgiveness, we feel that we need to forget or condone someone else's behavior toward us—this is not the case. For those of us walking around harboring anger and resentment toward another person, we are hurting ourselves more than the other person. We think that by not offering forgiveness we have the upper hand and are in power. In fact we're only harming ourselves by keeping a clamp around our own hearts.
Often I find in my work that the person we need to forgive may actually be ourselves, and this can be a powerful and emotional realization. When we begin to open our hearts to the idea of forgiveness, it becomes easier to forgive both ourselves and others.
In this meditation I start out with some opening thoughts about forgiveness and then guide you into a nice relaxed state. From there we take a guided and gentle journey to a place where you feel safe and secure, and we work with the cleansing power of the fire element. I close out the meditation with some supportive words to you about your forgiveness journey.
I believe that forgiveness is a process and can have many layers as we become strong enough to go yet a little deeper. Sadly, some people carry bitterness throughout their entire life, unwilling to unlock the shackles that bind them. I would love nothing more than to see all of you set yourself free and become a bit lighter, more open, and at peace within your mind, body, and spirit.
I'm also happy to announce that all of my guided meditations are now available on CD as well as digital download. For those who have been waiting for them on CD, we are currently offering all of them as a limited edition 4 CD gift set at a special price.
Being Here Now is experiential and it takes practice. It's about being rather than doing. When you are in the moment, truly in the moment, this is it, it's all there is. Time slows down. You can enter a flow of love with a quiet mind, simply being present. You flow from one activity to the next, moment to moment, being with one person, then with another, just Being Here Now. Ram Dass literally wrote the book on Being Here Now. In 1970 BE HERE NOW was published and soon became a cultural icon that inspired a generation to look within. His ideas continue to reverberate and over the years he has taught and lectured and meditated with countless students and seekers. Nearing 80, he is still Being Here Now, even more in the heart, with a new book, BE LOVE NOW. In honor of the 40th anniversary of BE HERE NOW, this course distills Ram Dass' four decades of teaching. The Practice of Being Here Now will transform your vantage point and make your life richer, more fulfilling and more p! eaceful. Being Here Now will help you get in touch with your Soul and be a wiser more compassionate human being. That's the joy of Being Here Now.
