tayatha om muni muni maha munaye soha

 

(mantra of Shakyamuni Buddha....the 'muni' part got me going . This is

the "historical" Buddha's mantra. )

The "moon" to watch for at this time is the new moon which falls on

Xmas day around 12:30 EST. There happens to be an eclipse on this

new moon cycle and it is a few days after the solstice. Taking place

in the Gemini/Sagittarius (sidereal position) axis and following the

energy of the solstice nerves may be frayed, energy low and more than

the usual holiday craziness. It is an important time for meditation

or anything healthy for stress management. The bija mantra for the

moon could be chanted "Om Som Om" or if one knows it the Gayatri

Mantra. This will be an interesting time for all.

)// All paths go

somewhere. No path goes nowhere. Paths, places, sights, perceptions,

and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside back

into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than

the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of

Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It

is Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the

Finality of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of

Self-Knowledge, spontaneously arising from within into It Self.
