Johanna Note: Affirmation asking to experience the oneness, and then through song, inviting the Holy Spirit to come.
“The more I am free of doubt, jealousy, judgment, selfishness, anger,
the closer I am to this oneness. When I am right with the Creator,
nothing can touch me. When I am right with the Creator I always say
the right things. When I am right with the Creator, my thoughts are
always good. When I am right with the Creator, my actions are always
good. Great Spirit, remove from me those things that block me from You.
Allow me this day to experience the oneness.” Chuck Ross, LAKOTA

Happiness & Prosperity …
Filed Under Meditations | Leave a Comment
Johanna thoughts … Feeling hopeless can be a sign of not feeling connected. It can also come from a lack of prosperity, or what you perceive as a lack of prosperity. Read the words written by Wendy Rose. Think of yourself as connected. Think of yourself as blessed. Then listen to the Yeha Noha and visualize happiness and prosperity.
In peace and love….Johanna
From Wendy Rose (HOPI/MIWOK), “For every human being to feel connected, we must have the feeling of belonging. If for some reason while you were growing up, you did not develop the feeling of belonging, a search will be triggered and a restlessness will be present in your heart. You will feel a hole inside of you; something missing. Remember, we can get this feeling of belonging when we realize we do belong to the Great Spirit and that He really loves us.” My Creator…I belong to you. Let me feel your presence.”
“Let us eclipse the sun and the moon with our spiritual and emotional being,
and let us transcend these physical barriers and negativity which have made us a nation of one.
May the winds of time put into motion this feeling we share with our Mother Earth and this universe till the end of time. May the creator bestow upon us a grand sense of unity and peace which we will continue to pass on to our people, wherever they reside.”

What is the reason for my existence? …
Filed Under Meditations | Leave a Comment
Johanna Note: This meditation was written by Armand L. Archambeault. It is found is his book, “The Strange But True Story Of A Mystic.”
Armand asked, “What is the reason for my existence?” Spirit replied, “I am a lamp force, you are a lamp, which when unplugged is nothing. Life must flow from the source to the object. You are a flying fortress; you are an eagle in the wind; you are searching for your prey through your prayers, which are faster than sound; your prayers are powerful gems, like a stealth bomber or stealth fighter; to promote peace and harmony throughout your universe.
This is the obvious to the spiritually minded person, but for those not understanding, this means that Becoming One with the Father has to be initiated and actively continued on by us on a daily basis full time; we must be plugged in always if we want to stay in the Spirit.
Prayer, while In the Spirit, is like a mass of effective, heavy thought patterns flying in the wind and faster than sound. Prayers may seem as if they don’t work, but they are actually working in you and others; producing peace and harmony through love sent in a stealthy unseen way.”

Native American Quotation & Music …

Native American Quotation: “Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves.” -Black Elk (Oglala) 1863-1950
Lame Deer, LAKOTA – “Every person is created with purpose and with direction. This purpose and direction is written in our hearts when we are conceived. In addition, we are given access to a quiet guidance system which helps us find our purpose and our direction. We need to recognize this guidance system. It’s called intuition, the quiet voice, urges, the knowing or the feeling. Once we locate our purpose and direction, we are given skills, talents and abilities unique to only ourselves. We must practice daily prayer and meditation with God to find this information. To be solid and confident in ourselves, we always need to be able to answer three questions: Why am I?, Who am I? And where am I going? If I can answer these three questions, I know I’m OK.”

What is your vision for you? …
Filed Under Meditations | Leave a Comment
–Fools Crow, LAKOTA
We are created by God to be vision people. First we set the goal and
then we see. If we create within ourselves a picture or vision and we
hold that picture or vision in our mind, whatever we picture will show
up in our reality. If we can see ourselves being educated, then
schools and teachers will show up in our lives. If we picture in our
mind a positive, spiritual person to be in our lives, we will attract
this type of person in our relationships. How big can our dreams be?
Great Spirit, let my visions today be Your vision. Put within me a
vision of the being you would have me be. Then help me to keep the
vision in my mind
Johanna Note: A home should be a place where you can allow your visions and dreams to become real for you. Not everyone is fortunate enough to have a home like that. Regardless you can focus on your spiritual home and your spirit angels. Ask for protection; search in quiet; seek the light and know your spirit teachers and guide(s) want the best for you.

The Gayatri Mantra …
Filed Under Meditations | Leave a Comment
Johanna Note: According to Wikipedia, the Gayatri Mantra is the most revered mantra in Hinduism.
Information shared below furnished by Rev. Marcella Jones of First Spiritualist Church, San Diego.
Rev. Jones is a Certified YM Practitioner (Yeun Method of Chinese Energetics).
“Practitioners believe to the one who chants the Gayatri Mantra regularly and with faith, the mantra is the reliever of diseases; wards off all misery; fulfills desires and is the bestower of all that is beneficial to the person who chants it with faith, love, reverence and a pure heart.”
Translation
Griffith (1896):
(a,b) “May we attain that excellent glory of Savitar the God:”
(c) “So May he stimulate our prayers.”
word-by-word explanation:
* dhimahi ‘may we attain’ (1st person plural middle optative of dhā- ‘set, bring, fix’ etc.)
* tat vareniyam bharghas ‘that excellent glory’ (accusatives of tad (pronoun), varenya- ‘desireable, excellent’ and bhargas- ‘radiance, lustre, splendour, glory’)
* savitur devasya ‘of savitar the god’ (genitives of savitar-, ‘stimulator, rouser; name of a sun-deity’ and deva- ‘god’)
* yah prachodayat ‘who may stimulate’ (nominative singular of relative pronoun yad-, causative 3rd person of pra-cud- ‘set in motion, drive on, urge, impel’)
* dhiyah nah ‘our prayers’ (accusative plural of dhi- ‘thought, meditation, devotion, prayer’ and nah enclitic personal pronoun)
“We meditate on That, Iswara’s Glory Who has created the universe, the Gross and Subtle Life’s Energies Within, and Beyond The Ultimate Reality, Who is fit to be Worshipped. The Illustrious Embodiment of Knowledge and Light. The Remover of all sins and ignorance. May He Enlighten Our Intellects.”
“The Gayatri Mantra may be considered to have 3 parts. The Mantra has all the three elements that figure in the adoration of God–Praise, Meditation and Prayer. The first nine words represent the attributes of the Divine.The Gayatri Mantra is considered to be the essence of the teachings of the Vedas–the Veda Sara.”
The Gayatri Mantra
OM BHUR BHUVAH SUVAHA

BHARGO DEVASYA DHEEMAHE

The Seer of Lublin …

“This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind…let it be something good.” –Author Unknown
Folklore indicates The Seer of Lublin once went into trance at his table at a formal tish. Upon awakening he taught his disciples this tune which he had heard sung by the angels above.
