A Spiritual Conspiracy

This was passed on by my friend Harriette King of Santa Fe. The author is unknown.


A SPIRITUAL CONSPIRACY

On the surface of the world right now there is war and violence and things seem dark.But calmly and quietly, at the same time, something else is happening underground. An inner revolution is taking place and certain individuals are being called to a higher light. It is a silent revolution.

From the inside out. From the ground up.
This is a Global operation.
A Spiritual Conspiracy.
There are sleeper cells in every nation on the planet.

You won't see us on the T.V.
You won't read about us in the newspaper
You won't hear about us on the radio
We don't seek any glory
We don't wear any uniform

We come in all shapes and sizes, colors and styles
Most of us work anonymously
We are quietly working behind the scenes
in every country and culture of the world
Cities big and small, mountains and valleys,
in farms and villages, tribes and remote islands

You could pass by one of us on the street
and not even notice
We go undercover
We remain behind the scenes
It is of no concern to us who takes the final credit
But simply that the work gets done

Occasionally we spot each other in the street
We give a quiet nod and continue on our way
During the day many of us pretend we have normal jobs
But behind the false storefront at night
is where the real work takes a place

Some call us the Conscious Army
We are slowly creating a new world
with the power of our minds and hearts
We follow, with passion and joy
Our orders come from the Central Spiritual Intelligence

We are dropping soft, secret love bombs when no one is looking
Poems ~ Hugs ~ Music ~ Photography ~ Movies ~ Kind words ~
Smiles ~ Meditation and prayer ~ Dance ~ Social activism ~ Websites
Blogs ~ Random acts of kindness...

We each express ourselves in our own unique ways
with our own unique gifts and talents
Be the change you want to see in the world
That is the motto that fills our hearts

We know it is the only way real transformation takes place
We know that quietly and humbly we have the
power of all the oceans combined
Our work is slow and meticulous
Like the formation of mountains

It is not even visible at first glance
And yet with it entire tectonic plates
shall be moved in the centuries to come
Love is the new religion of the 21st century

You don't have to be a highly educated person
Or have any exceptional knowledge to understand it
It comes from the intelligence of the heart
Embedded in the timeless evolutionary pulse of all human beings

Be the change you want to see in the world
Nobody else can do it for you
We are now recruiting

Perhaps you will join us
Or already have.
All are welcome
The door is open

Inspirational Message from the Deva of Trust

Hello..a member of the wonderful creative/healing arts/dance community here in Santa Fe, my friend Rena Tairifa sent this message today and I thought you would enjoy it.

She has spent time at Findhorn, a co-creative community in Scotland, famous for great growing despite the very cold, rainy, inhospitable climate there. Co-creative gardening--something I have studied with Sibylle Preuschat and with the materials of Maechelle Small-Wright, involves working in partnership with nature.

When we work with nature, one level at which we can communicate and partner with her is through the Devas. The Devas are architects of form..some people see them as spirit beings or in other forms. I do not usually see them but I sense them. Everything that exists in form--not just plants and rocks and things we would consider nature, but anything that can be named, even intangible things, have an overlighting Deva, a Deva in charge of that thing.

If this idea is new to you, you can read Co-Creative Science by Maechelle Small Wright to learn more...You can also experiment with asking for a connection to be made to any Deva you want to connect with, and see what messages, images or sensations you receive from making that connection. Make sure that when you finish connecting, you ask for the connection to be released, with thanks....otherwise it's like leaving a phone off the hook.

So that is a little background for those of you not familiar with Devas or that we can communicate directly with nature.

This is Tairifa's communication from the Deva of Trust. Enjoy!

Many blessings,
Ellen

Inspirational Message from the Deva of Trust

"Move from a place of knowing within you rather than as a result of adaptation to outer experience. Let go of your assumptions and your need to control life's creative process.

It does not matter what spiritual path you’re on, an ultimate sense of peace comes down to one question: Can you let go of the need to control your life, and trust there is a benevolent force guiding all that ever has, is, and will happen?

Trust is the soul's way of attuning to a fundamental law of reality. There is a deep rhythm that moves through all life that cannot be controlled by our will. When trust informs our experience, it allows our psyche to relax and our soul to be at peace with our situation. We can rest in unquestioned confidence that the universe provides, that we have and will receive what we really need. In fact, often beyond what we alone are even capable of imagining.

When we have a lot of basic trust, we are courageous and take risks. We don't suppress our competencies. We engage in life wholeheartedly, doing what feels appropriate with the confidence that it will work out. Life becomes a story of creation not an obstacle course.

Without basic trust, we tend to react to what arises in accordance with our conditioning wanting our process to go one way or another. We cling to predetermined assumptions and outcomes. We become tense and contracted and do all we can to manipulate the circumstances to fit with our desires.

Here is a suggestion for changing the automatic internal response to external signals. When a traffic light turns yellow and there is a safe distance to stop before it turns red, what do you tend to do? Do you accelerate to 'make it through'? If so, this is a metaphor for what happens inside when our yellow worry light goes off — we accelerate; try harder, move faster, do more, all stress responses to our conditioning. Trust is the ability to stop and wait for the green light to signal the time to move forward again.

Why not, for the month of November, practice putting on the brakes when the light is yellow and taking that moment to pause and breathe in trust and the deeper rhythm of life while waiting for the green light to again signal you to go."
