Basic Counselling Skills

Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of understanding and compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.
Listening in such a way that the other person feel heard and understood.
A vibrating object will cause other objects to vibrate if these other objects harbour the same vibration as a potential possibility The law of resonance explains that a certain vibration will start a similar vibration in objects around it, if these other objects latent harbours the possibility for the same vibration.
The transference may be a positive one (falling in love) or a negative one (hostility and hatred).

Cosmos and Us

The ancients did not differentiate between astronomy and astrology, because there was no difference!
In our way of understanding "science", science only came into existence recently.
Quantum physics is beginning to edge scientist back towards the same area, it is for example now proven that it is not possible to conduct an experiment, without affecting the outcome of that experiment.
The influence from cosmos, star signs and planets is a cornerstone we will elaborate over the year, connecting science, archetypes, myths, hands-on healing, contemplations and meditation.
Perhaps when sounding in meditation, the vibration created the form in their minds.
Hebrew, Sanskrit, Egyptian and Tibetan are generally considered to be "sacred&" languages.

Dharma, Right Living

An approach to self development that is radically different from the therapeutic tradition is that of Dharma.
Therapy is based on strengthening and balancing the ego, ultimately working with projection, but with the object of work determined by of the client's choice, via intellect, emotions, dreams, body-language, aura etc.
Working from the perspective of dharma, we go the other way — regardless if I know I have a problem, regardless if I consider it important, my distance to dharma will tell about my distance to my higher Self or God; if we act in accordance with right living, if our lives please God, our higher Self, our deepest sense of ethics, we will have contentment.

Esoteric aspects of development

"The process we for the time being is in the middle of, in essence has to do with the Self becoming common.
The Self has as part of its characteristic, a expanded perspective of consciousness: the global, mankind.
In this light, we can — and do well in doing - all the 'right things' to achieve Ascension.
A person can be initiated individually within his own lifetime, and a nation can receive initiation if it works its way up to the highest level of development and fulfils its task here on earth.
The Sun is circling around a star, (we believe this star to be Sirius).

Karma

And how prosecute you him who in action is a deceiver and an oppressor, Yet who also is aggrieved and outraged?
And how shall you punish those whose remorse is already greater than their misdeeds?
Is not remorse the justice which is administered by that very law which you would fain serve?
Yet you cannot lay remorse upon the innocent nor lift it from the heart of the guilty.
Unbidden shall it call it call in the night, that men may wake and gaze upon themselves.
If there is something in the personality that does not die — and experiences point to that, then this Immortal aspect is part of the continual consciousness of the Self.
A person whose consciousness entirely is attached to the body and focused in the I, therefore will not have any chance for experiencing an expanded continual consciousness.

Marriage Counselling

This seeming contradiction is because loneliness basically is that we do not like our own company, or do not find it sufficient.
For a really lasting and meaningful relationship to develop, it is important to understand three basic laws governing our psyche, the law of resonance, the law of polarity and the law of projection.
Having done that, the concept of forgiveness also needs to be understood

Preparing for Disaster

And when disaster strikes, you may not have much time to respond.
A highway spill or hazardous material could mean evacuation.
A winter storm could confine your family at home.
An earthquake, flood, tornado, or any other disaster could cut water, electricity, and telephones-for days.
After a disaster, local officials and relief workers will be on the scene, but they cannot reach everyone immediately.
You could get help in hours, or it may take days.
Would your family be prepared to cope with the emergency until help arrives?

UFO's as Archetypes

Why are they here? We will in this chapter investigate UFOs understood as archetypes, and UFOs understood as physical spacecrafts. Among the many witnesses who report UFO sightings, a small percentage (only 2-3% according to U.S. Air Force statistics) have been exposed as hoaxers.
This means that the human mind gradually are ready to comprehend things more complex than black and white either or etc, as for example quantum physics illustrates.

Compassion

Everyone throughout the world talks about the importance of love and compassion.
There's no one who says love and compassion are bad and we should try and get rid of them.
However, there is an uncommon element in the method or approach which is taken to these by Buddhism.
In general, when we think of compassion, we think of a natural or spontaneous sympathy or empathy which we experience when we perceive the suffering of someone else.
This past summer a group of Palestinians and Israelis came to Plum Village, the practice centre where I live in southern France, to learn and practice the arts of deep listening and loving speech.

Death and Dying Article

All the losses we could possibly experience in life joined together in one overwhelming loss when we die, so how could anyone dying not be sometimes sad, sometimes panicked, sometimes angry?
When the dying person is finally communicating his or her most private feelings, do not interrupt, deny, or diminish what the person is saying.

Earth Changes

"[…] The ahrimanic beings […] are not at pains to make man particularly spiritual, [as the Luciferic forces in a sense are] but rather to kill out in him the consciousness of his own spirituality.
These enormous changes indicates either a cosmic origin of the changes, for example connected to the Yugas as described above, or — which from a certain angle is the same thing, it indicates that the human impact on the globe, is an impact, in fact on cosmos, or at least on our Solar System, as Edgar Cayce seems to indicate.

The article Cosmos and Us describes in further details our interconnectedness with cosmos.

How to survive psychologically

The vertebrae, the spine are the base of both your body and mind.
A good start, before difficult psychological work is attempted, is to strengthen the connection with our backbone, the physical spine via hatha yoga, swimming, running, gymnastic, massage etc.

 

Psychologically integrity problems can be worked with by working with projections in psychotherapy.
Read the instruction carefully, if you do not understand it, email us or write in our forums, do not work with something you do not understand.

Generally it is not ideal to meditate directly on a computer screen, certainly not if it is an older model.


Life and Consciousness

This shift is understood both as due to global phenomenon, and as due to personal effort." Is consciousness a product of matter as present-day, and maybe especially yesterdays science claims? In this explanation of the role of life in the cosmos, Gardner presents an eloquent and lucid synthesis of the most recent advances in physics, cosmology, biology, biochemistry, astronomy, and complexity theory. This wave, known as the Schumann Resonance, "Gaia's brain wave" or simply the Earth Wave, is fed by lightning discharges and the planet's internal electromagnetic activity.
The Schumann resonance is not increasing in frequency, and in fact already has multiple higher frequency spectral lines at the frequencies predicted by basic quantum physics.

Music and development

Perhaps when sounding in meditation, the vibration created the form in their minds.
Within each of us is the field of the whole body; fields for arms and legs and fields for kidneys and livers; within are fields for the different tissues inside these organs, and then fields for the cells, and fields for the sub-cellular structures, and fields for the molecules, and so on.
There is a whole series of fields within fields.

The Aura

A healer who is using a praxis that is primarily based on meditation, primarily mentally trained, will more radically turn towards the multi-dimensionality of the human consciousness and energy field.
Manas, the sense mind, the subtle magnetic pole turned outward toward the world of matter, is the pons Varolii (part of the brain stem), which physiologically is ever busy with sensory coordination.
Thus Buddhi intelligence draws the consciousness towards truth or the eternal realities, soul consciousness or self-realisation.
Manas or sense mind repels the consciousness from truth and engages in the external sensory activities of the body and thus with the world of delusive relativities, maya.

What are Archetypes?

Jung defined archetypes as identified identical, primordial, inherited images, or modes of perception in the collective unconscious.
Rather, independently of, and sometimes in direct contrast to, the outward forms they may take, they represent the life and essence of a non-individual psyche.
The specific cards in the various Tarot decks are different artist`s approximate illustrations of the common collective structures embedded in our psyche, traditionally called the "archetypes".
Apart from the inspirational insight the text to the tarot cards is offering - with all their richness in detail and symbolism, the contemplations help us to "reconcile" the opposing forces within ourselves, to become more balanced and well integrated, and to stay more objective.
