Daily Meditation #1

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis  “Seek and you will find”

 

“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”

 

These daily meditations are excerpts from ‘Science of Mind’ by Ernest Holmes, published in 1926.

 

“These lessons are dedicated to that truth which frees man from himself and sets him on the pathway of a new experience, which enables him to see through the mist to the eternal and changeless reality.”

“Become quiet and composed. The body should be relaxed but the mentality should be active. Then, carefully read the meditation several times, phrase by phrase, endeavoring to realize the meaning of the words and trying to enter into the atmosphere of the thought. After having done this, meditate upon the words, following the meditation until you feel a sense of realization.”

-Ernest Holmes

 

Happiness And Completion

I am happy and complete today and forever. Within me is that which is perfect and complete. It is the spirit of all life, truth, and action. I am happy in the sure knowledge of the inner light. I cannot be sad or sorry, but must radiate joy and life, for life is within me now. I am happy and complete.

Words To Live By #9 Persistence

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis  “Seek and you will find”

 

“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”

 

From a speech given by Calvin Coolidge, the 30th President of the United States, these words remind us to never give up. That persistence can see us through our trials, troubles and tribulations.

 

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.

Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.

Education will not; the world is full of educated derelics.

Persistence and Determination alone are omnipotent.

The slogan “Press on” has solved and will always solve the problems of the human race.”

Rosicrucian Reflections #4

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis  “Seek and you will find”

 

“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”

 

“Natural law is that set of laws decreed in “The beginning” by the Devine Mind as the working basis of all creation and without which no manifestation can occur and exist. It is universal in scope and manner of operation, simple and direct. Natural law is always constructive even when it seems indisputably destructive. It is the expression or manifestation of cosmic energy and order that humanity is able to discern. There is no such thing as supernatural law. There is nothing more devine than nature, nothing super beyond the natural. The greatest of miracles are not the result of some supernatural law, but of natural law.”

Spiritual Treatments #9

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis “Seek and you will find”

 

“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”

 

These treatments are from Ernest Holmes’ book ’34 Spiritual Treatments’. Use these treatments as prayer or affirmation. If used as prayer, feel the words as originating from your heart and going to the place inside you that God resides. If used as affirmation, pay close attention to the words and truly believe what you are reading. If you don’t believe in God, substitute the word God for anything you choose and tweak the words to make them work for you.

 

“The purifying Presence of Devine Love in me keeps me at peace. God through love gave Himself to His manifest world. That same love manifests my perfect expression. Devine Love permits no disintegrating force to operate in my consciousness. Hatred and resentment have no place in me. My unified Self is perfect in understanding. I am not subject to prejudice of any kind – racial, national, nor personal. My understanding of man’s basic unity in God permits no prejudices. I can choose freely the things and experiences which I like. I can reject with equal ease any experiences which I do not desire. It is not necessary that I like everything because I do not hate anything. I cultivate those experiences which I like and which are beneficial to my unfoldment. I intensify that which is desirable. That which I love reaches the greatest intensity of all because I am unified with that which I love. This keeps me emotionally stabilized and at peace.”

Words To Live By #8 ‘Invictus’

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis “Seek and you will find”

 

“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”

 

I’d like to include the poem ‘Invictus’ by late Victorian era poet William Ernest Henley. Invictus is Latin for ‘unconquered’. The poems speaker is demonstrating their unconquerable nature by proclaiming their strength in the face of adversity.

I believe we all have some level of adversity in our lives, so we can all look to these words for courage and inspiration

 

Invictus

by William Ernest Henley

 

“Out of the night that covers me,

Black as the pit from pole to pole,

I thank whatever Gods may be

For my unconquerable soul.

 

In the fell clutch of circumstance

I have not winced nor cried aloud.

Under the bludgeonings of chance

My head is bloody, but unbowed.

 

Beyond this place of wrath and tears

Looms but the horror of the shade,

And yet the menace of the years

Finds and shall find me unafraid.

 

It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishments the scroll,

I am the master of my fate:

I am the captain of my soul.”

Essene Meditations and Blessings #3

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis “Seek and you will find”

 

“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”

 

Meditation

The morning calls to me

To slow my pace and be,

To ease my crowded schedule

And perhaps just sit and stare.

To focus on a burning log,

On a raindrop on a leaf,

Or to find my own image

In a flickering candle flame.

The mother’s weather urges me

To let it go, let go.

A deep primal inner voice

Is whispering… within.

 

The Blessing

I have seen the maple tree;

The leaves have left its limbs.

It stands bare and brittle now,

Its spirit gone within.

And in my mind I know

That deep within the earth

Its lifeblood pulses in its roots,

Rejuvenating strength.

How like that maple tree am I,

As I go within my core,

Experiencing outer death

And inner depth

Once more.

Rosicrucian Reflections #3

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis “Seek and you will find”

 

“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”

 

“Let your imagination have full sway. Build it up until it is filled daily and hourly with the pictures that the lessons of the past and the trials of today suggest to your consciousness. Then analyze these imaginary things, select the best and take them into the laboratory of your creative powers. Let the Devine consciousness flowing through you reconstruct them, radiate them, and bring them to pass in your life and in the lives of those around you, thus adding to the world the assets of the future and the beautiful things of human evolution.”

Essene Meditations and Blessings #2

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis  “Seek and you will find”

 

“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”

 

“You vibe attracts your tribe”

 

 

 

Meditation

Each life upon this earthly plane

Knows beginning and knows ending.

Each turn of the yearly wheel as well

Brings birth and death.

Each breath I take reminds me, too,

That I must die each moment

So as to bring a blessed newness

To the next breath that I take.

For if each outbreath ends in death,

Each inbreath sees me born anew,

And present to that moment.

 

The Blessing

Throughout the flow of passing seasons,

You have shared your Light with me.

No middle-person have I required

to walk the path with you.

For in my heart

You dwell forever,

Not in some mansion high,

And the blessings that you give to me

Come from deep inside.

 

May God bless and protect you and…

May you always be

Healthy, Happy

Safe and Comfortable

“God is my courage! God is my strength! God is the inner confidence and conviction of my being and life. I have nothing to fear. God governs thoroughly, absolutely and completely, every detail and situation that presents itself to me. There is nothing to doubt, no confusion to confuse, and no block to block. The Mighty Spirit of Truth dissolves all excuses of resistance or rejection. A Supreme Intelligence guards and guides my life always. Devine Intelligence in me assures me that evil, error, falsity, of whatever name or nature, has no power, principle, process or procedure. The Universal Mind has decreed that I shall have courage, dominion and strength,  — and it can never be taken away. In this courage and dominion I live and have my being forever. For the Lord my God is with me whithersoever I go. This I know right down to the foundations of my being. Steadfast in Thee, O courage of God, I rise in Thy strength, and all is well.”

Words To Live By #7 ‘If’ For Girls

 

Quaerite Et Invenietis  “Seek and you will find”

 

“Your vibe attracts your tribe”

 

I posted the poem ‘If’ by Rudyard Kipling on October 15, 2019. I think it is a wonderful poem. Written for his son in 1895, it offers great advice that can be used by anyone.

I came across ‘If For Girls’, a complimentary poem for Kipling’s ‘If’, by American writer J. P. McEvoy. This is a wonderful addition to this series of blogs, especially in todays world where women are becoming more empowered than ever; and it’s about time! Women and men can use this advice, so let’s celebrate the Divine Feminine.

Dedicated to my mother Sylvia Patricia, and my love, Erin.

 

“If you can hear the whispering about you

And never yield to deal in whispers, too;

If you can bravely smile when loved ones doubt you

And never doubt, in turn, what loved ones do;

If you can keep a sweet and gentle spirit

In spite of fame or fortune, rank or place,

And though you win your goal or only near it,

Can win with poise or lose with equal grace;

 

If you can meet with Unbelief, believing,

And hallow in your heart, a simple creed,

If you can meet Deception, undeceiving,

And learn to look to God for all you need;

If you can be what girls should be to mothers:

Chums in joy and comrades in distress,

And be unto others as you’d have the others

Be unto you — no more, and yet no less;

 

If you can keep within your heart the power

To say that firm, unconquerable “No,”

If you can brave a present shadowed hour

Rather than to build a future woe;

If you can love, yet not let loving master,

But keep yourself within you own self’s clasp,

And not let dreaming lead you to disaster

Nor Pity’s fascination loose you grasp;

 

If you can lock your heart on confidences

Nor ever needlessly in turn confide;

If you can put behind you all pretenses

Of mock humility or foolish pride;

If you can keep the simple, homely virtue

Of walking right with God — then have no fear

That anything in all the world can hurt you —

And — which is more — you’ll be a Woman dear.”

 

May God bless and protect you and…

May you always be

Healthy, Happy

Safe and Comfortable
