A Chat About the New Era We are Now Living In

Let us begin.

"In this era of the new awakening, it will be a time of self awareness and self empowerment- taking initiative and responsibility for the journey of one’s own physical life experience. How does a person become self aware and self empowered? Through awareness and understanding and expansion of their consciousness. What is awareness and how does one do that? They go inward - they tune in to what is going on inside them - their thoughts, feelings, experiences, events in their life, their pulls and pushes, the questions, curiosities, what they are drawn to, and what repulses or annoys them. They soak in everything they can and then sort out the pieces to understand how it impacts them, helps them, hurts them, as well as how to overcome challenges, hurdles, problems - ways to make their life experience more meaningful and satisfying. They tune in and focus on what they feel - what brings joy, what brings sorrow. They assess, come to conclusions, make decisions, and embark on actions based on this expansion of their awareness. Their awareness and new understandings create new insights, new awareness, and new knowledge. It is a process. It is a cycle. It is an expansion of the conscious mind.

This expansion of consciousness is the mantra that creates the motion and movement within the Tao. This new phase humanity is now in is filled with this energy of change, movement, and flow. Things that have been hidden are now exposed. Things that have been suppressed and buried are now in full view. Being aware of these changes, new challenges, and new opportunities is part of the wonder for this era. How humanity uses this new era as an opportunity to create and build the framework that will support individual’s growth, development, awareness, and self responsibility or empowerment, along with creating connections of support with others, will be how the new story of humanity will unfold. 

Is there a formula for how a person tunes in to understand themselves? It will be different for each person as to what works best for them, but the common denominator is based on desire and focused intention. Some will choose quiet reflection, pondering, or perhaps meditation. Others will gravitate to places of loudness or chaos - almost as a way to occupy their mind to be distracted which may allow their inner soul a way to expand without any fanfare. Others will find movement and engagement of the body, such as running, or swimming, dancing, martial arts, or even contact sports of domination such as wrestling or boxing. It isn’t just the quiet and alone time that stirs a person to become aware - there are a variety of avenues and methods. Understanding the results of these efforts, tends to be more individual with isolation and reflection. Not always, as often it is done in discussion with others, but the internalization of the understanding, and the insight is most often an individual effort."

Who Are You? And How to Become the Person You Should Be?

In this new awakened era we are now in, there is a change of human consciousness being created. Individual’s potential is now expanding and becoming magnified and as a result, people will need to know and understand 

who they are,

their potential,

what they can be and do with their thoughts,  

and how to improve their lives and experiences.

One of the most important things you can do in this era is to understand who you are. But how does one go about to learn and understand one's true inner self? And then once a person gains this awareness, how do they determine what to do?


Most of us became who and what we were expected to become. Our parents, family community, church, school, etc. all played a role in contributing to who and what we became. Most of us probably fell into a pattern based on these expectations which then allowed us to be part of that tribe. 


But in this new era of "the awakening" our true nature - our real selves - are now being allowed to emerge from this box. It is as if the rules along with the locks have been removed and we can now expand our meanderings to explore beyond those former limitations.  


What do we do if we want to learn more about who we really are? For the most part, it is will still be an inside job and require effort, but in this new era, it will be easier and faster than ever before. 


What is the process? Well, you begin with that desire to explore and discover who you are. You then begin an inner journey to awareness; awareness of thoughts, feelings, desires, and any push and pull experiences. What brings you joy? What brings you angst or makes you feel bad? What are you curious about? What beliefs or teachings don't make sense to you? What feels right and what feels wrong?  This inside journey is one of exploration where you get to uncover hidden gems or secrets unknown or new wonders.  


The process of discovery means you have to pay attention and be more aware of what you are thinking and where you thoughts lead you. It also means you need to pay attention to how you are feeling and what triggers ignite a positive or a negative reaction from you. You also need to pay attention to any patterns or trends that emerge from all this focused attention.


In addition you will need to analyze the results of you data gathering and perhaps make some new choices.But to help you in this process are tools like meditation. Meditation provides a method to calm the mind and allow space and objectivity to analyze the data you have gathered. In addition, there are some types of meditation, such as the chakra energy meditation that can help strengthen your energetic self so that it doesn't become overwhelmed and can develop the fortitude to continue moving forward. 


In this new era of the awakening, you have the possibility to discover your true nature and true self. You also can create the means to allow your life to be lived more closely aligned to your life purpose. 

The Chakras are Part of Your Energetic Body

You are composed of a physical and an energetic body. Your energetic body consists of your soul, your Higher Self, and your Chakras. We typically conceptualize the chakras as circular points of light fixed closely along your spine. Each chakra is conceptualized as a different color of the rainbow spectrum. The first chakra, at the base of the spine is red, and then up the spine each chakra follows the rainbow color scheme of then a yellow orb of light, then green, blue, purple, and then on top of the head - a clear bright white light.


Typically the chakras are visualized as being circular. I usually visualize them as the size of an orange or grapefruit and each one is the same size. The chakras are also transparent (not opaque) and clear - no blemishes. They are also aligned - they are lined up from bottom to top in a straight line. These parameters are the goal in a meditation - you meditate and visualize the chakras and if they are not circular, not clear, not balanced, or not aligned, you in your meditation you make efforts to modify the chakras to display how you want them to be (clear, balanced, aligned). 

The reason you want to do the chakra meditation is to clear, balance, and align your chakras so that your inner energetic self becomes aligned with your true nature - your true self. With this clarity, the energies, feelings, beliefs, expectations that don't match your true self are more easily left behind because it doesn't match your real self and real needs. This type of tweaking helps us match our own inner energy with the energies that align with our true nature. The result is that we more automatically starts making choices that are aligned with a life path that is the same energetic frequency of our life purpose.

Here is the Chakra Meditation:
1. Start with loose and free fitting clothes. The chakra points should be free and clear of pressure. 

2. Sit in a position that you feel is beneficial.  This can be in a chair or on the floor.  You do not need to be in a lotus style of sitting.  The choice is up to you.  There is no right or wrong way to sit.

3. You can close your eyes or keep your eyes open.  However you find the easiest method to stay focused on the meditation.

4. Take a slow deep breath in and release it slowly.  Take another deep breath in and then release it slowly.  Go through a grounding exercise to connect with the earth. When ready, focus your thoughts to bring the energies of the earth up and to the first chakra located at the base of the spine. 

5. Visualize the first chakra. View it as an orb - a circular condensation of subtle spiritual energy about the size of an orange or grapefruit. Visualize it as a clear vibrant transparent red. If you don't see it as a circular, direct your thoughts to make it a round circular shape. If in your mind it is not a transparent red color, use your mind to make this chakra a clear transparent red. If there are blemishes, use your mind to elminate any blemishes or irregularities. Now, activate your first chakra so that you can sense and feel its energy. Notice how it feels and reacts with your entire energetic self. When ready, change your focus and intention to move to the next chakra up the spine.

6. Now focus your mind and thoughts on your 2nd chakra which is right above your first chakra.  Visualize the color orange, the clarity (is it clear, opaque, or a combination of such), the shape, and the energy or energy patterns associated with this chakra. If it is not clear or balanced or aligned, use your thoughts to guide or make your chakra clear, balanced, and aligned to the first chakra. When ready, connect to and feel the chakra become energized and part of your energetic self.  When ready, change your focus and intention to move to the next chakra up the spine.

7. Now focus your mind and thoughts on your 3rd chakra in the solar plexus.  Visualize the shape and make sure it is round. Focus on the color yellow and the chakra's clarity (is it clear and transparent?). Now focus on the balance and alignment to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd chakra. When ready, turn your attention on the sensation of activating and feeling this chakra.  When ready, change your focus and intention to move to the next chakra up the spine.

8.  Now focus your mind and thoughts on your 4th chakra in heart area/mid-chest.  Visualize the shape and make sure it is round. Focus on the color green and the chakra's clarity (is it clear and transparent?). Now focus on the balance and alignment to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and now 4th chakra. When ready, turn your attention on the sensation of activating and feeling this chakra.  When ready, change your focus and intention to move to the next chakra up the spine.

9.  Now focus your mind and thoughts on your 5th chakra in the throat area.  Visualize the shape and make sure it is round. Focus on the color blue and the chakra's clarity (is it clear and transparent?). Now focus on the balance and alignment to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and now 5th chakra. When ready, turn your attention on the sensation of activating and feeling this chakra.  When ready, change your focus and intention to move to the next chakra up the spine.

10. Now focus your mind and thoughts on your 6th chakra in the fore-eye area.  Visualize the shape and make sure it is round. Focus on the color purple and the chakra's clarity (is it clear and transparent?). Now focus on the balance and alignment to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and now 6th chakra. When ready, turn your attention on the sensation of activating and feeling this chakra.  When ready, change your focus and intention to move to the next chakra up the spine.

11. Now focus your mind and thoughts on your 7th chakra on top of your head. Visualize the shape and make sure it is round. Focus on the color white and the chakra's clarity (is it clear and transparent?). Now focus on the balance and alignment to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and now 7th chakra. When ready, turn your attention on the sensation of activating and feeling this chakra.  

11. Feel and be aware of the chakra's and their relationship with each other and their separation.  

12.When you are ready to end the meditation, release your focus from the 7th chakra, and then each chakra as you go down the spine. 

13. Release the energy from the root to the earth.

20. Come out of your meditation. 

How long should this take? Time constraints will disturb the meditation.  Do what you feel is right.  At first the time will be short but will grow with practice.

Should your eyes be shut? Your eyes may either be open or closed.  It is your choice; either way is OK.

Should you be alone? If you are meditating with another person do not face each other as you may feel the sharing of energy and joining and it will disturb the subconscious mind. For this meditation, it is best to meditate either alone or not facing another person.

The Invisible Shaking of Hands in Healing Activities

Long ago I had heard of a fellow Medical Qigong Therapist who would ask her client to "meet her at the organ system she was treating" and then together they would work to heal the disease. I found this concept rather intriguing and wondered how this would work and if I could also do this with my own patients. At one of my next Qigong treatments I asked my patient to "meet me at her liver and together we would begin to work on healing this organ".  I sat in silence and waited for her thoughts to come to me within her liver, and after several seconds, I felt a change happen. I then "visually saw and felt" her invisible hands reaching out to my invisible hands within her liver. 

I was a bit stunned this worked, but it did.  We were now joined together and could begin to work together to heal her organ. 

Since that experience long ago my focus has changed to include humanity-type healing activities around the globe. My recent focus was to use sound and songs to send out the focused desires of love, connection, harmony - those positive attributes we need more of in the world. As part of this process, I have received subtle messages and guidance as to what songs to use in these types of meditations. In one of those messages, the song given to me was "The Only Living Boy in New York" by Paul Simon. I was rather surprised and assumed it was letting me know to target just New York rather than all of humanity. But when I heard the chorus "Here I Am", the whole meditation changed.  I suddenly had a visual of willing souls around the globe opening up and being HERE and ready to join with me to share these positive thoughts, desires, and energies.  (See blogpost).

I knew it was just like the experience I had with my Qigong patient long ago, when I asked her to meet me at her liver and then felt and saw her reaching out with an invisible hand to shake my invisible hand.  This experience with Paul Simon's song was letting me know that those who were ready and wanted to participate in this global humanity healing effort were here and ready to participate. This was like the hand shake hand in that former Qigong medical treatment but now on a world stage. There was a sense of empowerment and change in this moment. 

For me, this was also an example of the expansion of awareness and consciousness that is part of this new era. This is the time in humanity's progress where we become more aware and experience new levels of consciousness and empowerment. This was one of those ways the awareness of humanity's expanding consciousness and empowerment as already being in play was made aware to me.

Here I Am - A Change of Consciousness in Humanity

Recently I’ve been using meditation coupled with songs as a type of global healing. The process I've been using is to use different songs during a meditation to send out the intentions of the meditation. Most of the meditations have an intention focused on providing awareness of new opportunities to change one's thought patterns that can keep a person stuck. Prior to these type of global healing meditations, I usually am prompted as to what song to use in the meditation. The melody and lyrics are then coupled together in a meditation and sent out into the world's ether.  (See blog post.) 

The song I was prompted to use in this morning's meditation seemed a bit unusual - “The Only Boy in New York” by Simon and Garfunkel, but I went with it. I began the meditation and then mentally played the song in my mind, releasing the song into the ether with the intention of it opening that mental "space in between" where people engage in decisions that are more aligned with their life purpose, or obtain new awareness, or suddenly recognize their own personal power. I continued the meditation with the intention and song playing in my mind. I then asked Siri to play the song "The Only Boy in New York" while I continued to sit in meditation in the dark. But then something new happened.

When the song got to the chorus that says “Here I Am” - I felt a sudden change. In my minds eye I could see many, many people scattered around the globe were now identified - it was as if they were standing up and letting me know they were ready and available. The chorus repeated and I again heard the words "Here I am".  

I felt I should share the subtle energies given to me by the Tao - energies associated with expanding one's consciousness and awareness - and I released them to connect with those who were standing and had essentially declared "here I am".  I could see those subtle energies of change, awareness, and the expansion of consciousness migrate to those ready to receive this gift.

The song ended. I now sensed a change of consciousness and a new expansion of awareness.

For me, this was a rather remarkable experience - a type of validation, if you will - that efforts to send out love, support, and connection can make a positive impact.

Using Sound to Create Changes in Thought Energy

I think there are many of us who would like to see how we can use our meditative skills to change and improve the world. Some of us may be aware of the internationally renowned Japanese scientist Masaru Emoto, who let us know how the influence of our thoughts, words and feelings can have on molecules of water. According to Dr. Masaru's theory of water consciousness, water can respond to human emotions, thoughts, words, and even written messages. The water can pick up the vibrations as a result of certain emotions and change its structure accordingly.These can positively impact the earth and our personal health. Experiments were used and one included having Buddhist monks go to a lake each day and direct loving thoughts into the water. The water changed.

I decided to use a similar effort and process by sending out thoughts and intentions into the world, but to couple it with sound. I recalled that many years ago, while lounging on a houseboat at Lake Powell, I was suddenly aware of a nonphysical sound coming from the steep red cliffs. I knew it was not real, but the sound and the song played in my mind. It gave me a sudden pause and I was alerted as well as drawn to the simple melody. I was also aware that in this moment, a space opened up in my mind to allow the wonder of things I did not understand into my life. I now call these types of moments “the space in between”. They are moments that provide a kind of “white space empty platform or new blank canvas” in your mind to emerge. It is there where new awareness, new insights, or moments of different decisions arise. I think these are often the experiences where we take steps more aligned with our life purpose.

I decided I would do daily meditations and couple it with a song and send it out into the world to help provide a similar type of experience I had that created "that space in between" - that space to allow a new awareness to emerge. It was an opportunity to change mental thoughts or a new direction.  If that space in between did not emerge, I could at least just send out positive energies, or love and support so that humanity could hopefully begin to change that energy of hate, fear, and anger to one of love, support, and connection.

As a result of this decision, I have been woken up by “the universe” early each morning to do these meditations. Not only am I awakened, it comes with a song playing in my mind. This lets me know that I am to use this song in my meditation.

I’m usually awakened anytime between the hours of 2-4 AM. I get out of bed, make a cup of tea, turn off the lights, and sit in my meditation position. I then begin my usual meditation process. I then visualize portals, channels, and paths opening in the earth, around the planet, and beyond. I then start to mentally play the song I was prompted to use and then play it in my mind. It is dark and quiet in this room, but my mind is actively engaged with the song that is playing in my mind and being sent out through all those channels. I visualize a kind of white space opening up and presenting itself to anyone who “hears” this meditative song. This space is what will allow a person to pause and new awareness and insight to emerge. The energy of love and support is embedded in the song and in this little window of a moment, a person can change “their energetic structure” to align it more to their life purpose. 

Sometimes I will speak and I say “Hey Siri, play “Believe by Adam Lambert” and then that song (which is the one I was prompted to use in this morning's meditation) will play for real and be in my physical reality. I will remain in a meditative stance, in the dark, but now use this physical song to couple with my thoughts and intensions. 

Music or sounds can be used to augment meditations and I am using this method in a global healing meditation to participate in changing the energetic space of our human experience. My hope is that this process will help foster more awareness to change the negative swirl of hate and fear on this planet, and to reach above that, to find ways to love, support, and connect. 

Here are a couple of the songs that have awakened me this week and I have used in these types of meditations: 

Believe by Adam Lambert

I Lived by OneRepublic

All of Me by John Legend

I anticipate these sound meditations are one way to help get humanity out of the muck we are swimming in. It is one way to participate in creating a more vibrant world we would want to be part of. After all, Buddhist Monks made such changes to a lake through their meditations. Dr. Masuru changed water crystals just through words, thoughts, and emotions.

I think this is one way to help change the growth of the negative energies and nullify them, as well change them to a positive. It should be worth the effort.

Going Within to Get Your Answers and Inner Guidance

Years ago I was taught an important lesson by my spiritual teacher, John U.K. I had been struggling with lack of direction, along with feelings and thoughts that were not part of my religious upbringing. I think I was looking for a new set of rules and structure, along with a new tribe. At that time, one of the more popular spiritual teachers and writers was a man named Ram Dass. His books were bestsellers and society was a buzz with this new age guru. I read one of his books and had high hopes. After all, he had broad support, was a best selling author, and there was lots of chatter everywhere about this man. But after immersing myself between those book covers, I came away with a sense of emptiness and started doubting my assessment and experience with what I read.  I wondered what I got wrong or what I didn’t see that everyone else saw or experienced. 

I discussed this with John U.K., my spiritual guide. He advised me to listen to my feelings rather than the white noise of others. He said my feelings were the real truth. All that emptiness, lack of trust, and confusion was serving as my answer. All of this was telling me "no". John U.K. said the public support was essentially “groupthink”, but my inner self was giving me my personal answer and guidance. 

THIS was a lesson that stuck with me. The lesson became an awareness to TRUST ONE’s OWN  IMPRESSIONS AND FEELINGS and to IGNORE the GROUP NOISE. I was to trust my inner feelings and personal truth and use that to forge my own life path and direction.

Ignoring the group noise is not easy. We are programmed with a desire to be accepted and included into the group or tribe. But learning how to get personal guidance and direction is one of the key lessons one needs to learn and develop in order to connect with one's life purpose. This is how one discovers their reason for being. 

We are living in the era of chaos, upheaval, and change. We will be faced and confronted with even more choices and paths in this era. Now is the time each of must develop the skill and ability to go within ourselves and listen to our inner voice. We each need to block out the “white noise” around us and turn inward to get the guidance we need. 

Seek answers from within. Learn to navigate your self compass thought your feelings, thoughts, and impressions. You can develop a clear messaging process with your inner voice which will help you stay on course. The more you exercise and use this "subtle muscle", the more confidence you will gain in knowing your decisions are aligned with your life purpose and taking you in the right direction you need.

A Chat About Discerning Truth in Our Thoughts, Beliefs, and Impressions

This was a chat I had with a spiritual being after the Lori Vallow Daybell murder trial. Lori Vallow Daybell was found guilty of having her two children murdered in Idaho. This devout Mormon became immersed in thoughts, beliefs, and impressions that led her to see her children as zombies who needed to be killed. She was deemed to be mentally competent, but somehow her beliefs led her to do many atrocities. How does a person's inner guidance system get so screwed up? Why do some people's subtle inner navigational system work and others lead them to bizarre behavior? This was the background for this discussion with a Spiritual Being.

"You have been pondering the process of using thoughts, feelings, and impressions as part of the navigation process for the soul and how the Lori Daybell murder trial was in part, a presentation of her doing just that. She was following almost blindly with her thoughts, feelings, impressions, and those beliefs about the end of the world resulted in several murders.

Her beliefs were (and are) galvanized through fear that stems from her religion and has led her to take these religious teachings in new directions that include zombies, soul possessions, and the need to save those who are unruly or not following THEIR plan which results in having people eliminated (killed). It is a similar process to the witch trials of the past - maneuvering or manipulating others to make them more afraid and to force others to agree and accept actions that would in calmer minds would be rejected and forbidden. 

The process of using one’s thoughts, feelings, and impressions as a means of guidance to help make better choices and decisions that are aligned to their life purpose is still a worthy form of communication and navigational tool. The error in this group of doomsday people as seen in the Lori Vallow Daybell trial is that the information they are getting from within their thoughts, feelings, and impressions is based on group thinking and support that has been fueled with fear, hate, manipulation, and the desire to belong, etc. This is that negative polarity of energy and in need of being rebalanced towards more positive energies.

A person chooses or decides to stay in that negative polarity often due to this is where their peers are living or surrounded by and they lack the strength, skills, or perhaps are lazy - and choose to stay in that sea of negative (aka evil) forces. The acceptance or camaraderie of having a “tribe” of people who accept you - even if it is in that sea of negative energies - is still appealing if you are afraid of being alone or ostracized or not accepted. The feelings, impressions, and thoughts of staying in that murky water need to grow or expand to the point where it becomes more uncomfortable to stay. Some don’t know how to leave.


The brother, for example, may have accepted the route of death because it was the only way out or perhaps he was manipulated into that path by his sister. Needless to say, the process of using thoughts, feelings, impressions for guidance is still the way a person learns to tune in to get their own personal nudges or answers. In this process, the person also needs to learn how to discern when they are truly connecting with truth that is not “clear, clean, and unfiltered" or uncontaminated with their tainted views, beliefs, or cluttered with advice or beliefs from their tribe or authority figures.THAT is also part of the process - to be able to recognize when one’s answers or guidance is REAL or TRUE - from THEIR SOURCE (aka Higher Self).


There would be an additional sensation of “oneness” or “truth” or “peace” or “balance” with a thought, feeling or impression from within. It would stand on its own. It would have an awareness of it being RIGHT or TRUE - that awareness like when you know you are in love - you just know it. When it is from your source, it is that same type of “moment of awareness” - it is just TRUE. It is the same sensation. That sensation of awareness - where everything has lined up in that moment - this is how you would recognize the thought, feeling, or impression is directly connected and not filtered or influenced by rhetoric or others. It is not contaminated or inappropriately influenced by other energies or people or situations."

A Chat with a Spiritual Being Regarding the Chaos in the World

I’ve been discouraged and perplexed regarding the state of the world and the nation. There is so much unrest, violence, anger, and political unrest and divisiveness is growing. Why are we continuing in this swirl? Can we stop and end this? This is a chat I had with a Spiritual Being about what humanity is currently experiencing...

"There have been times like this in the past - the Holocaust, the witch burning, the Crusades - a frenzy of emotion and fear sweeping over a group of people who then kill, plunder, and do what they like. You are living through one of those moments where you have a tremendous megaphone in your society inciting anger, hate, fear, and a desire to expunge, purge, kill, and remove others who do not feel the same, or act the same, or look the same. The outcome of this frenzy will be similar to what happened in prior eras of uncontrolled rage. It is like a fire that cannot be controlled but will eventually burn out. Yes, lives will be lost. Property taken or demolished. Not in the places you may expect because chaos easily moves and flows in unexpected directions. The removal of Trump as its leader has not stopped or curtailed the movement, correct? Having him be placed in a permanent position of leading this group will not matter and may not be the expected outcome, but churn and upturn of the foundation will be. 

When things finally settle down it may be due to exhaustion or not having enough fuel in this movement to continue. But in this process of churn, new leaders within the opposition to this rage will not only emerge, but will be strengthened. This process of burning down all those structures that allowed and encouraged such destruction and the demolishing of the country's foundation will allow new seeds to come forward. The things the original America believed in - like justice, equality, civil liberties, fairness, everyone was supposed to have a voice - those things will be seen as being still valuable and will be nurtured to grow and develop. 

We anticipate the hatred and anger, conspiracies created by many (such as many men and the white supremacists) will be like embers that will finally be put out to end this chain of events. Your question as to why this is still happening is because it needs that uncontrolled rage and expansion to take over and dominate everything else so we can get it over with, extinguish those languishing embers that have been still in play for centuries, and then move on with a new canvas with leaders that have emerged from these battles that we can now trust and accept. The process for helping a person choose is often done through the help by seeing what we don’t want. Most people do not want to be ruled by paranoia, fear, hate, suppression, anger and rules that only apply to the rich and powerful.

This era you find yourself in is where people are presented with two strong options and choice as to who they are and how they want to live. Peer pressure is very much in play here, but because people will often follow the crowd they find themselves in, they will also be given windows or opportunity to make choices for themselves. Many will opt to stay in that current and flow of staying in a group, and will eventually learn a lesson they need to have - we each make our own choice and live with that consequence. This swirl of negative energy will end when it has run out of fuel and/or is no longer needed to prepare a new canvas for a new story about humanity.

You want to know if the Shialude is helping to control this rage, you ask? Notice how the swirl seems to be fed by individuals rather than leaders. This individual approach rather than a top down approach is represented by a different mantra being used that was not present in previous societal upheavals. The ability to disseminate this hate, anger, fear, conspiracies is much enhanced in the era you are living in, so the spread is faster, but it still would require willing participants to fuel the flames and keep them alive. Eventually this will burn out. How long? Maybe months, but most likely years. Not decades or centuries like it has been in the past. This is more intense and deeper, which means quicker in it becoming over.

The results of this intense chaos and change, we believe, is that the garbage people continue to cling to about race, wealth, power, control, religion, politics, and prejudices will, for the most part, be changed or at least softened. There will be new and different concerns emerge that are currently unforeseen, but the Tao desires different experiences, so the seeds as to what creates the push and pull between people will most likely be different from what was pervasive in your society. 

The desire to learn and explore energies beyond the earth and solar system is part of this new era as well. The era is new and will be very different from what you currently know and have lived through in all your incarnations. This new era is, and will be, very different. Trying to solve problems based on old behaviors and concepts will no longer work. They will seem archaic and designed for an era that is long gone."

Chaos and Change

Most likely you are feeling things changing within you, and in the world. Some of this is represented by chaos. Some are represented by the demise of some institutions and beliefs, Some are from timeline changes; some not.  

This is a time of change and upheaval in many ways, but also with this the awareness things are progressing. This change is allowing new ideas to start growing and emerging.  With change, there is always upheaval. Some will adapt, some will not.  You probably can already see who will have the fortitude to carry on and those who will not. Those who have been alone and independent and have had to scrape through life are often better prepared than those who have not. 

As always, and like most things, it is often a matter of choice as to how to get through all these changes and chaos.  Choice is a primary law of human development.  The ability to choose who you are and what you do is part of the gift basket that helps you become “you”.

The choices you make will reflect back to others as to the type of person you are. If you are stuck in a cycle of fear, hate, or anger, for example, others will see and know you as a person unable to grow, adapt, or move forward. If your choices are to change and adapt, you are seen as flexible, willing to take risks, and to move on. 

The choices you make are the colors you use to paint the canvas of your life. This is the “you” that is on full display for others to sense your essence and being.

Learning Qigong Healing Techniques Can Be a Way to Expand Your Consciousness

Qigong healing uses the techniques where your thoughts, your focus, and your intentions are garnered to assist in the healing of another. This state of mind helps you create a "state of being" where you, the healer, can join, connect, and participate in the subtle energies of another and then assist in guiding or directing these subtle energies to change, or move, or flow. 

This type of healing is one way to use your consciousness to participate and be involved in the subtle energy field that is within us. This process is one way to not only expand your consciousness, but to engage and frequently use this energy field.

The Qigong training begins with learning how to sense, feel, and interpret not only your own personal energies, but the energies around you. You tune into your five senses (touch, hear, see, smell, taste) and learn to sharpen the access and interpretation of those subtle messages that come from these senses.

As you practice and improve those skills of sensing, interpretation, and understanding those subtle messages, you expand your ability to receive these types of messages. You also develop and improve your ability to trust what you are receiving. This can lead to additional methods of communication opening up to you. One of these may be the ability to connect and commune with nonphysical beings of spirit, who may even join in and assist with healing sessions and activities you are conducting.

Social Media and the Development of a New Group Consciousness

One of the Tao's desires is the expansion of consciousness. The expansion of consciousness has typically meant being tuned in and aware of our own thoughts, feelings, desires, and impressions, and then gaining an interpretation, understanding, and an action associated with this awareness. This has been the process to help fuel change, growth, development, and improvements in life. It has been part of a process of gaining knowledge, insight, and wisdom.

But we are now in a new era of humanity's development - a revolution of change, if you will. Due to new technology, how we live is always changing and having access to the world wide web and being connected to everything and everyone. We now have tools, such as through social media, to share private thoughts, feelings, desires, impressions, and whims and release these personal bits of consciousness as data points into the wild. These pieces of our inner self can now be part of a group consciousness that is no longer hidden or secure our physical boundaries. It has been released and can take root into a group consciousness that has no constraints or protections. It can become a part of a group-like mind of thoughts that now have a mythical form of cohesion with a hashtag and label.  Your personal thought or feeling is now part of a new type of an expanded consciousness.

Having something humanity has not seen and experienced before is how the Tao also learns, grows and develops. This new "group consciousness" is now also part of humanity's journey of learning, growing, and developing. Part of this experience will undoubtedly require us, as a society, to figure out how we can use this new group consciousness to become better than who we currently are, and to gain the knowledge, insight, and wisdom needed in this new phase of humanity's growth.

Expanding Consciousness Begins with Self Awareness

The Tao has a desire for us to expand consciousness and awareness, which changes, expands, and fine tunes the energies of your soul. The process of expanding our consciousness and awareness is how we change our “inner subtle energies” that can eventually help us become enlightened beings.  

Expanding our consciousness and awareness takes place through the journey of our life experience. Living on this planet and overcoming the challenges as well as enjoying points of joy and pleasure all contribute to the learning process and help us to gain more insight, knowledge, and wisdom. But being tuned in and aware is where more growth and consciousness takes place. It is in that inner realm where our thoughts, feelings, desires, choices, decisions, and actions reside that are one of the keys to help us learn, grow, understand, and expand our consciousness, and when this happens, it is like a new energetic thread within our actual soul is created and then lights up. It changes who we are.

There are different ways to help us tune in and pay attention to the subtle going ons within us. This includes paying attention to your  thoughts, feelings, impressions, desires and decisions.  To do this you usually need to pause and spend time alone to allow the "subtle you" to come forward or to be more aware of this presence. Some will meditate to allow time and space for this connection and communication with themselves. Others will carve out time in nature to allow this self reflection. Some will use a creative process, such as writing, or drawing, or with music or art. Some will use exercise, such as horseback riding, bicycling, or jogging, for example. There are countless ways to set aside time and space for oneself and allow that free-flow of thought, feelings, and impressions to come forward.  

The important thing is to learn how to connect and commune with your thoughts, feelings, and impressions. The next step is to learn WHICH thoughts, feelings and impressions have value to you and are keepers and to then discard the ones you don't want or need. 

The process of tuning into our inner-self and then learning how to discern the gems of our inner thoughts and feelings we want to embrace is how we get to know our soul and its needs and desires. This is how we expand our consciousness and awareness. 

This whole process of self communing and understanding our subtle nature is a key to becoming more aware and enlightened.

A New Baby is Given Instructions on How to Heal Herself

A friend of mine welcomed the birth of a new baby granddaughter, but the baby was shortly sent to the ICU due to meningitis and other complications. I told my friend I would give the new baby a remote Qigong treatment if the parents agreed. They did, so I prepared for the treatment and projected my spiritual self to the bedside of this new little tyke. Additional spiritual beings who often assist me with healing treatments also arrived; The Old Chinese Master, the Microbiologist, and two new experts on cells and genes named Ian, and Rhonda.  

When we arrived we saw an adolescent girl standing outside the incubator, staring at the baby inside the incubator.  This female was the new baby's soul!  We were seeing the soul based on the "soul age" of this spirit - a teenager. She was clearly unsure of what to do. She then made a comment, saying that this illness was totally unexpected and not something she planned or wanted. She now didn't know if she wanted to stay or not. The life she was expecting did not include major health problems and she was wondering if she should just leave and not fight this battle. 

Then, Rhonda and Ian conversed with the Microbiologist about what cells would or should be flipped off or on to resolve this problem. They then informed her what she could do to fix the problem. She would need to get back into the body and flip some switches within her cell structure. They informed her that by making those simple changes, there would no longer be an obstacle or reason to no longer want to continue with this body and have life experience she had planned. 

This adolescent soul then seemed to easily slip into that little infant physical body and must have flipped the appropriate switches (it seemed like 3 switches) because things suddenly changed. I could tell the illness or disease was now gone. She was OK and would continue to have no residual problems from this health scare.

Shortly after the conclusion of this remote treatment, my friend contacted me to inform me the Doctor just left and said the baby was doing well and was being moved out of ICU. 

We have a new technology in healthcare being studied and used in test cases called CRISPR, which is a genome editing process to see if it can treat or heal certain diseases. But the process that Rhonda and Ian were using was not the gene splicing process like CRISPR, it was more of a "flipping of a switch" or a code to either be active or inactive. My impression was they had brought this recommended process from a part of the Tao I didn’t know about or have had access to. It felt to me as if this solution was somewhere in the future, but because they could access everything and everywhere in the Tao's domain, they were able to share exactly what needed to be changed with this new soul, who then “fixed herself”. 

I was in awe. If an individual can obtain the healing instructions and then install the solution within their own body, this would be revolutionary.  This would be the epitome of self empowerment.

Expansion of Conscioiusness

When I was 36 years old I was married, living in Utah, and struggling with questions about the Mormon Church. The rhetoric and answers I heard my entire life no longer made sense. Then, my spiritual guide, John U.K., made his presence known to me. John U.K. is  a former friend from my last incarnation. We both lived in the United Kingdom and were killed in WWII. After that incarnation, I wanted to reincarnate to finish what I had planned to do in that life. But John did not want to reincarnate but said he would help guide and prompt me in this new journey to help me complete those tasks. 

I was thrilled to have someone with “inside knowledge” in the spiritual realm and who was also accessible. I asked John U.K. all the stuff that made no sense to me, including the Mormon concept of God. “Is there a God” I asked?  His response was “There is the Tao”.  This is the response he gave:

“In the beginning there was dust, atoms, gas - the Tao. In order for the TAO to broaden its experience, it decided to create this earth's existence and divide itself upon it. The purpose was to gain the greatest diversity of experience. And in order for the Tao to learn, progress, and grow, the Tao chose to break into smaller pieces. We call these smaller pieces “fragments” of the Tao. Some of these fragments are us. You are all a fragment of the Tao. The earth is also one of those fragments.  The Tao is the total gathering of information, knowledge, wisdom, energy, etc. It is the sum of all existence, both what you can sense and that which you have no concept of. It is everything that is." 

Over the years I have learned that when we expand our consciousness and awareness is when growth and progress occurs. But why does this matter? What is the end game in all of this progression and expanded consciousness? It is this process of acquiring more knowledge, experience, wisdom, and awareness that changes our very soul - we become a more “enlightened being” - a type of brilliance that can be seen, felt, and expressed. It changes our very core. And because we are fragments of the Tao, as we change, grow, and improve, so, too does the Tao. This is what some call the “alchemy of the soul”.

Why is this important now? You have noticed how the world seems to be in upheaval. There is a lot of chaos and uncertainty in the world - more than ever before. This is related to humanity “waking up” - and it is creating a change in how we think and do things.  

The Tao is essentially demanding that we start thinking and being different. We need to become different. We need to become this new energy and we do this by making choices and decisions that are aligned with this new energy. The old ways of doing things no longer will work nor have the same value.  We are in a new era known as “The Awakening”. This means humanity has a new awareness of our own inner self - our soul and its energy. We are more aware of our thoughts, desires, feelings, and impressions and these will no longer be suppressed. They will no longer be ignored. On a collective level, it means that humanity will need to resolve problems differently. Decision makers will no longer be automatically awarded to someone based on their life station, or position, or if they are privileged, have wealth, power, or fame. It is shifting towards unexpected individuals.Currently it seems to be those who are just loud, irritating,  and disruptive, but this will shift as more people see this is not what they want. When it shifts towards people with integrity, service, passion, knowledge, as well as the new tools (such as AI), this is when the trajectory and path will be sustainable. 

Humanity is on a new trajectory. This new trajectory will take us on many new journeys that will expand our consciousness and eventually help us to become more enlightened beings.

A Healing Group of Hawaian Female Spiritual Beings

A friend of mine, who had received all the numerous Covid vaccines, recently acquired Covid. This virus totally flipped her upside down in its intensity and depth. She was pretty sick.I offered to give her a remote Qigong healing treatment and she accepted this offer. When I completed this remote Qigong treatment, I noticed a spiritual being present. It was my friend's spiritual guide, who I had met in prior Qigong sessions. She asked if she and others could add on to the Qigong healing I just completed and I told her yes. Immediately our spiritual selves were instantly transported from California to Hawaii.

I had been standing in the bedroom of my friend's home but I was now standing on the ground in a tropical outdoor setting, I looked around for my sick friend and her energetic spiritual self was lying asleep on top of a swinging hammock. The hammock was between two large palm trees. My friend was still deeply asleep and totally unaware of any of these movements and changes that had just occurred.

There was also a group of about 5 or 6 Hawaiian female healers standing around on this grassy shore. I saw two move to each side of the hammock and they were now gently and lovingly pushing my friend back and forth in the hammock like you would swing a child you were trying to sooth and rock to sleep. The rest of the women healers then circled around the hammock and began to coo, hum, and softly sing to my friend. The sounds and songs were similar to what a mother would sing to a child she was trying to soothe or get to fall asleep.

Many of these women had their eyes closed while they sang and hummed. To me it seemed they were sending thoughts and energies towards my friend. I sensed my friend's body starting to make changes as if these sounds and messages were now directing her to heal.

I then noticed a big black mass drop out completely from her body! It hit the ground with a thud. It looked like a big volcanic rock and was the size of about two hands stuck together. One of the women healers reached under the hammock and quickly removed this "rock" from the ground. She scampered away as if she would be destroying hard stone. Everyone seemed to be very pleased that this black mass fall out from my friend's body.
These women then removed my friend from the hammock and carried her over to the shore and into the ocean. My friend suddenly woke up and began swimming under the water in a "mermaid-like manner". She was happy, energetic, and joyful. It was a quick and amazing transition.
Next, they guided her out of the ocean water and back to the grassy shore. The women were now holding large green palm leaves and circled around my friend and began to stroke my friend's body with the palm leaves, fanning her from top to bottom and again started to sing and hum.

At the conclusion of this, each one of the women, one by one, came up to my friend, held her head in their hands, kissed her forehead, then placed their forehead to her forehead, whispered a message, and then blew air into my friends face. My friend took that breath into her lungs.
When the last healer completed this sharing, my friend and I found ourselves back again in California. I was still awake, but my friend was very deeply asleep, laying on her bed and in her home. It was as if nothing happened. I then did the final step of the Qigong healing process, which is to wrap the patient with a wrap of protective qi energy. This concluded the remote Qigong healing process. I ended the meditation and this connection.

This healing event was pretty remarkable and very unexpected. Healing activities can include spiritual beings who use healing methods that include sound, focused thoughts, and directed intention. They also used group participation to intensify the healing energies. There are expanded and different healing modalities for us to learn, experience, and be open to using.

Yes, my friend healed from this Covid event shortly after this treatment.

How Do You Know Your Thoughts, Feelings, or Impressions are Correct?

The process of using one’s thoughts, feelings, and impressions as a means of getting guidance to help a person make better choices and decisions is supposed to be one of our best means to guide us in the journey of life. Being able to tune in, receive those subtle messages, as well as decipher and understand the message is a skill we can develop. But how do we differentiate if our thought, feeling, or impression is coming from our Higher Self rather than just the noise from others? How do we know our interpretation of the impression or message is correct?  

When a thought, feeling, or impression comes from your Higher Self there will be a sense of knowing - kind of like when you know you are in love - you just KNOW it. 

There is often a feeling or an awareness of “oneness” or “truth” or “peace” or “balance” with that thought, feeling or impression within you. It creates a positive polarity inside you - almost a lightness or radiance where you can feel your energetic self expand or soar a bit. 

When a thought, feeling, or impression is from YOUR inner guidance system (your Higher Self) or aligned with your life purpose, there is an awareness of TRUTH, or it being pure, or it being “aligned and not influenced by other energies”.  Your thought, feeling, or impression is an insight of awareness and knowing.

Develop Skills to Get the Guidance and Answers You Need

You can improve and expand your ability to get the guidance and answers you need. You begin by first developing the skill to receive subtle communication and messages. You begin by improving your ability to sense and tune into your thoughts and feelings. You then focus on interpreting the subtle message(s) correctly.

You initially become more aware of your senses - what you see, hear, taste, smell, touch. This is the manner from which you interact with the physical world. These interactions then contribute to your thoughts, feelings, ideas, and concepts. But when you focus on using those senses to tap into and interact with the nonphysical realm of life, you become open to those senses being stretched and used beyond the physical reality. For example, you may start to 'see' things that you realize are not physical and still there. You may start to 'hear' things that you know are nonphysical, but you still hear them. In other words, your ability to sense beyond the physical realm into the nonphysical, spiritual, energetic realm of existence is now expanding. 

Next you become more aware of your thoughts and feelings. As you pay more attention to your thoughts and feelings you begin to notice when, how, and why your thoughts and feelings change and can recognize when a change is significant. 

In addition, this focused awareness seems to also flip an inner switch and you seem to now be in a mode to "receive messages” and now are being directly prompted or sent messages by your Higher Self. In addition, other spiritual resources may also send you direct messages through this “messaging inbox”. 

The more you trust your sensations, thoughts, feelings, and impressions, the more this channel and manner of communication will grow and expand. It may even develop into a type of "streaming messaging" service or process (such as channeling, or automatic writing, or telepathy) and your ability to interpret and understand those messages will also grow.

In summary, paying attention to your sensations, thoughts, feelings, and impressions can help you get the answers you need to help in your life journey.

The Energies of the Chakras

You are composed of a physical and an energetic body. Your energy body consists of the soul, the chakras, and the Higher Self. We typically conceptualize the chakras as circular points of light that are similar to a rainbow and fixed closely along the spine. 

  1. The first chakra is located at the base of the spine and is usually depicted by the color red. 
  2. The second chakra is located near the sexual organs and above the first chakra. It is depicted by the color orange. 
  3. The third chakra is located at the solar plexus and is depicted by the color yellow.
  4. The fourth chakra is located at the center of the chest, near the heart, and is depicted by the color green. 
  5. The fifth chakra is located near the throat and is depicted by the color blue. 
  6. The sixth chakra is located between and slightly above the eyes and is sometimes called the “third eye.” It is often depicted with the color purple. 
  7. The seventh chakra is located at the top of the head and is usually depicted by either the color indigo or white.

Spiritual Energies Associated with Each Chakra

The energies of the lower chakras (point one, two, and three) are more “physical” in nature, and perhaps more tactile than the upper chakra points (five, six, and seven).  For example, you ground through the first chakra, and the other two are close to the earth point and deal with bodily functions, but also spiritual ones. The energies of the upper chakras are more mental, ethereal, and spiritual. 

The chakra points are balanced and aligned, even though there are an odd number of chakras. There are three upper chakras and three lower chakras. The fourth chakra is neutral and relates to the heart and to the energy of love.  Love is the center concept to existence.Love is the energy of the Tao and connects and holds all the Tao together as one.

These are the types of spiritual energies associated with each chakra:

First Chakra—Spiritual Energy of Sensing

The spiritual energy associated with the first chakra is related to sensing and connecting. This is how we receive input to interpret our environment. It is also the force that helps us connect to other energetic forces, such as the earth and to other life forces (people, places, animals, etc.). This is the chakra energy that helps us ground or stay rooted and connected with the earth, for example. This is the spiritual energy that helps us sense another person’s essence or true nature. This is the spiritual energy we use to connect with our environment, tribe, or community.  

The spiritual development tool that is most closely associated with cultivating this type of spiritual energy is food. In part it is because food comes from the earth and food is our connection to the earth. We use our senses (smell, taste, touch, visuals) to interact with food and it connects and becomes a part of all our senses. This process of interacting as well as consuming food is a way of partaking of the earth’s energy.

Second Chakra—Spiritual Energy of Truth

The second chakra is associated with the energy of truth. The core of truth is creativity. The core of creativity is the ability to create. Sex is the core of creation. This means that the spiritual development tool that helps us cultivate truth is through sex. But the caveat to create truth through sex requires the presence of love for that person. Sex alone won’t cultivate the energy of truth unless it is enveloped in love.

Third Chakra—Energy of Time (Past Regression and Future Sensing)

The spiritual energy associated with the third chakra is associated with time. It includes the ability regress to the past or to sense the future. The manner in which we interpret and respond to this spiritual energy is through our emotions and feelings. Being able to tune into your feelings and understand your emotions, as well as control your feelings will be a necessary skill should you decide to develop skills where you work with the energy of time.  

The way to cultivate this spiritual energy within you is done through the use of sound. Some people can cultivate this energy through chanting, or drumming, or through music. Different types of vibrations can be used to help one’s spiritual energetic self not only improve or balance their emotions, but also can be used to help them work in "time".  Regressing to the past, sensing the future, or visiting parallel timelines are activities that can be experienced by you and developed with this chakra energy. 

Fourth Chakra—Energy of Love

The fourth chakra’s spiritual energy is associated with the energy of love, harmony, balance, and change. The energies associated with this chakra are associated with love in all forms: the ability to love yourself, your partner, family, friends, humankind; all life.  The spiritual energies associated with this chakra are about transformation. We call this spiritual gift “ command projection” because it can create change in many forms. The act of healing, for example, is a transformational act and is associated with this chakra energy. 

The tool used to cultivate this chakra energy is color. Using different colors or lights of color can be used to augment any of the chakra. It can also be used to change any of the chakras, too. Using colors of pure light and even different combinations of color can be a very powerful tool to change one’s spiritual energies.  

Fifth Chakra—Energy of Communication

The fifth chakra’s spiritual energy is associated with communication. Communication takes many different forms.This energy is used to communicate with other people, but is also used to interact and communicate with your Higher Self. It is also used to help you communicate with spiritual Beings who may be serving as a Guide for you. In addition, this energy is also used for your inner communication, such as what happens in dreams, promptings, impressions, and meditation.

The spiritual development tool most closely associated with cultivating this energy is the use of rituals. Rituals are a way that uses our mind, body, and spirit in a story, metaphor, or convey a message that is felt as well as experienced.  Rituals are a broad form of communication that engages our entire being, and because of this, it is a tool to help improve the quality of our communication energy of the fifth chakra.

Sixth Chakra—Energy of Knowing

The sixth chakra’s spiritual energy is associated with awareness, gaining insight, and knowing with absolute surety. It is the energy from this chakra that helps us gain awareness and understanding. The process one’s spiritual self uses to gain more awareness and understanding is usually through connecting and interacting with other planes of the Tao. One’s spiritual self typically learns to use the energy of the 6th chakra by learning how to project ones energetic self to the astral plane. After that is master, visiting other layers of the Tao (or beyond) can also be achieved. 

The spiritual development tool most closely associated with cultivating this type of spiritual energy is with meditation. Meditation allows the mind to focus, clarify intent, or even wander.  Knowledge is an acquisition into the mind and uses the energy of knowing.

Seventh Chakra—Energy of Integration

The spiritual energy of the seventh chakra is associated with the integration and connection with the Tao (or Mother Nature, Mother Earth, God, Goddess, All that is).

The spiritual development tool most closely associated with cultivating this spiritual energy are activities associated with movements that bring the physical, mental, and spiritual realms together. It is almost a kind of blending together of the life force energies, the elements, and the soul into a kind of interconnection. This can happen with meditative movements, such as with Tai Chi, Qigong, Yoga, nature walks, some kinds of swimming, running or other activities where you have a sense of connection between mother nature (or the elements) and your body, mind, and spirit.

The spiritual experience that is created with the seventh chakra energy is the gift of telepathic communication. This type of mind-to-mind communication can occur with another person on the physical plane, or when with nonphysical Beings, such as helpers who come to assist with a healing. It is the communication that is used when you visit other nonphysical places, such as when you begin to meet with your Higher Self, or interact with your Spiritual Guides. Telepathy is the primary mode of communication when you travel to other levels of the Tao. 

Summary 

Each chakra is not only a different color it is a different type of energetic frequency of spiritual energy. Because each is a different type of energy, each chakra also creates a different type of spiritual experience. When you cultivate different chakras, you increase your probability of having spiritual experiences that are associated with that energetic vibration.

An example of how paying attention to your thoughts, feelings is the beginning of everything

The message I keep getting is to let others know about the importance of tuning in and being aware of one's thoughts and feelings. This is the important message for this era in humanity - learning to trust one's own thoughts, feelings, hopes, and desires. This is the beginning step that we all must take to embark upon a life of meaning and purpose. This is the way a person learns how to start thinking and being their own person and taking responsibility and ownership for their life experience.

I then had a compressed series of experiences with a personal dream message, then a meditation, then an Qigong exercise, and finally a message from beyond with a recommendation to share this compressed experience as an example of how paying attention to your thoughts, feelings, and knowing your desires, translates into messages, guidance, and answers. This is kind of a typical day for me - I dream, I meditate, I do Qigong exercise, and I get input. Then I do my regular day tasks and live a normal life.

But I was prompted to share this morning's experience as an example of how being tuned into my thoughts, feelings, dreams, and sensations works for me and how this translates to getting answers to questions I've been focused on.

I keep a journal and record significant dreams, questions, thoughts, desires, significant events, new awareness, and guidance I have received. This is today's entry.

My Dream
In my dream I was a passenger in my car; I was in the front seat. I believe my sister (or someone I know who I am close to) was driving and we ended up in what seemed like a tall large cave with a road running through it and a parking lot in this cave. It seemed like other cars were going to hit us and we ended up moving out of the way and backing into a wall in the parking area. We got out, walked around. It seemed this area was a type of tourist attraction that I had never heard of - even though it was close to where I live. 

I followed behind others who were pointing to an area on a jagged rock wall as being remarkable. I looked at it and only saw a bumpy rock. 

I then walked to another feature others were gathered around. It included an area that was up a few steps and then you walked into what looked like a small rock crevice. I walked up the steps, went into the crevice, and saw nothing other than rock, then exited the crevice. I couldn’t see what all the fuss was about.

Then I meandered to another area that had a group of people pointing to areas on a large rock wall as if it were a painting. Again, I didn't see anything but stone. But then I started to see very pale, slight colorings of lines and realized this was a petroglyph of some type, and I started to get excited, since I’m “into petroglyphs”. I had never heard that petroglyphs were near to where I live. I was excited! I then went back to the other areas I had examined and now saw a face image on the bumpy rock. I went back to the crevice and now saw there was an abundance of diverse images and faces in this rock. I knew this was a very important find! The more I stood and observed, the clearer these images became. 

I left, wanting to bring my camera and take photos, but I couldn’t find my camera or phone to take photos. I then woke up, got up, and went downstairs to do my daily morning meditation. I made some green tea and sat in the dark and began to meditate.

My Meditation 

In this meditation, my thoughts began, but were not about my dream, but rather about how I have eyes where I sometimes can see beyond the physical. This usually happens when I give a Qigong medical treatment, for example - where I “see” inside of the patient’s body and the problems that are there. I can also tune in at times and “see'' spiritual beings who come to assist. I also have experiences where I “see” bright light in a dark room - even though there are no lights turned on. In other words, there are times when I am using my physical eyes to look and observe, but see beyond the physical realm and into that nonphysical realm. This doesn’t happen all the time - but it is enough that I know when it is physically real and spiritually real. I’m also aware this also occurs with sounds, or smells, or tastes - my senses are sometimes able to tap beyond the physical and into that nonphysical space and retrieve and report on those sensations.

In this meditation I was now being told that “focusing on improving one’s sensing skills means that you are reaching beyond the physical senses and tapping into the nonphysical, but still using those physical means to report on what you are receiving. This is what it means to expand one’s ability to sense - it’s improving your skills and abilities to interact and receive input from all these other layers of the Tao and send it into your physical self as a means to enhance the message and communication.”

I then ended my meditation and began doing Qigong exercises to accompany the sunrise.

My Qigong Exercise 

When I completed my Qigong exercise, I stayed standing with my eyes closed and arms outstretched to continue to receive Qi and life force energy into my energetic self. In this phase or receiving and welcoming subtle energies into me, my thoughts turned to my dream last night of messages hidden in stone that I eventually was able to perceive and see, and then my early morning meditation about how expanding ones sensing skills uses your senses and then goes beyond the physical realm into the spiritual realm. Now I heard another voice in my mind explaining what happened in my dream and meditation.

“Last night you were exploring the metaphysicalTao and being guided by someone you trust. You stopped to “see” things that are there, in the area you live, but in a different layer beyond the physical realm. The dream showed you that you could tune in and open up to receiving input and the messages embedded in the earth. The dream message was to show the process of not only developing that skill, but how it can be used. 

The meditation that happened after you woke up was a way to guide your mind on how the expansion of sensing skills works - you use your physical senses but you are training them to go beyond the physical realm and tap in and receive the messages and input from other layers within the Tao.

You now have a new awareness.The process of expanding one’s awareness may occur in multiple steps with messages being sent and received in different manners - dreams, thoughts, meditations, etc. When the awareness moment happens, it can come  from the gathering of all those pieces together to provide the full message. 

You now have an awareness that when one is expanding their sensing skill abilities, it begins with that desire, and then thoughts and feelings, and then focusing on those desires, thoughts, and feelings and using your physical senses to help increase your awareness. The input of sensations, thoughts, feelings, images, sounds, etc. may expand beyond the physical realm to provide that fuller picture of meaning. 

It starts out small, but grows and expands like ripples made on a still water lake. Awareness may begin with the rock hitting the still water, but the growth of awareness is like the ripples made from that single moment when the rock hits the water.”

My recent thoughts on 'how to increase and improve my awareness to help me expand my consciousness' have led me to this experience of a dream message, a meditation message, and guidance from beyond.  In this dream, for example, the message was about how my ability to see can expand beyond what I physically see. The awareness of seeing beyond the physical then expands into new areas and then creates new thoughts, impressions, and feelings. Even messages by nonphysical messengers and spiritual guides begin to direct new concepts and ideas into my meditations and other communication methods I am open to receiving. These then create even more new thoughts, feelings, awareness, and impressions within my physical self. The outcome is  an expanding awareness of consciousness, which is what I have desired. The ripple grows. New concepts and ideas emerge.  

Conclusion

Learning to pay attention to your thoughts and feelings is the beginning of becoming more aware. Your thoughts and feelings will help you become aware of your desires and your thoughts and feelings will then start giving you feedback to help guide you towards what your desires are. The process of awareness grows and expands and eventually gets deeper and broader. Others will be drawn in and come forward in new ways to help open doors that can assist in helping you achieve your desires, and more and new thoughts and feelings will become part of your life. Eventually the nonphysical realm from the other layers of the Tao will also be drawn in and start to be part of this movement and flow as well. But it all begins with the first step - being aware of your thoughts and feelings.
