AN EMERGENCY SITUATION

This is a S.O.S. -- an emergency call -- a call to heal our planet,
Mother Earth and, by doing so, to benefit ourselves. This is a call to all
who care. Please, bear with me and lend me your ears for just few minuets.
Be blessed for your caring and patience.

Time is short and the task is of supreme importance. Since some may be
busy or impatient for long explanations and expositions -- this file is
intended to present the issue in a nut-shell, in a very basic form and
general terms. Widening the scope of our perspective on the matter may be
done later, on an individual, or groups basis.


THE PREDICAMENT

Urban life and technology have detached very many of us, humans, from a
direct, emotional, energetic and spiritual contact with nature and Mother
Earth. As much as there are variations between individuals and between
various cultures -- this seems to be the overall predicament with most of
Western societies and, to some degree, with major part of the whole of
humanity. Even some cultures which have traditional affinity to nature and
Mother Earth are loosing some aspects of their tradition and heritage, in
the name of "modern progress".

Nature, Mother Earth, have been exploited unduly for too long. Natural
resources being depleted is but one aspect of the predicament. What may be
more important is the loosening of the power of myths in our lives, which
brought about diminished reverence to the sanctity of God's creation,
especially to nature and Mother Earth.


THE URGENCY

There are many predictions concerning imminent adverse earth changes and
catastrophes of global magnitude. Since various predictions and prophesies
differ in their details, it isn't possible to be certain about the
correctness or accuracy of any of them. Yet, intuitively, the general
common core of all those predictions and prophesies echoes as being, most
probably, true.

Hence, actions are being called for -- urgently. It maybe still possible
to avoid it, or to diminish its magnitude. Even if there is no grain of
truth in any of those predictions and prophesies -- healing Mother Earth
and increasing our connectedness to nature and Mother Earth can do a great
good. Please bear in mind, even if Mother Earth will not be affected even
a little bit by any of those healing and connecting acts, any individual
acting this way will be immensely benefited.

Therefore, the call is to act upon healing Mother Earth and increasing
our connectedness with nature and Mother Earth. If not for God's creation
-- for Mother Earth -- do it for yourself.

Only -- do it.


ON PLANETARY HEALING ACTIONS

There are many possible actions, only few will be mentioned in this file
-- those I know based on my personal experience. Other actions may be
found and done on individual and groups basis. Suggestions for other
actions are welcomed, please email. All the actions mentioned below, but
one, can be done either individually or in groups. They are very effective
when being done individually, yet, they are more effective performed in
groups. One thing can be done only in groups: Planetary Healing Circles.

All actions mentioned below are complementary -- each and every one of
them is very effective and beneficial on its own, each and every one is
complementing and enhancing any other action. Do any one of them, do some
of them, or do them all -- only, do it.

All are encouraged wholeheartedly to take whatever actions each and
every individual is able to, whatever actions each and every individual is
willing to. Those who don't have others to do it with in a group are
encouraged to do it individually. Wherever there are groups which can act
towards planetary healing, wherever there are groups which are willing to
take any kind of action -- the benefit will be multiplied. Groups which
will adopt some planetary healing actions will be blessed; individuals who
will assemble to form planetary healing groups will be blessed;
individuals who will do it on their own will be blessed.

Do it in whatever form you can and are willing to -- only, do it.

SOME SUGGESTED PLANETARY HEALING ACTIONS


* Being Conscious

Being conscious of the human predicament and the predicament of nature
and Mother Earth. Many actual and practical aspects and actions follow
one's consciousness and perspective quite naturally and automatically.
Thus, just being conscious is a great step in itself -- being conscious of
oneself, of one's condition and being conscious of nature and Mother
Earth.

Any way of becoming conscious, or becoming more conscious will do. Any
way will do -- will it be reading, studying, observing, or just paying
attention. Probably most important is to pay attention, to bring it to
one's mind, to be with it, to be aware.

Be with it, pay attention, bring it to your mind, be conscious.

***


* Willing, or Intending

Energy flows into and from the direction of one's focus, or intention.
This is a natural and automatic process. (This is the way setting goals
works, this is the way positive thinking works -- to the extent it
actually works).

Wish, will, or intend, the benefit of nature and Mother Earth. Wish,
will, or intend the healing of nature and Mother Earth. Let your mind and
intention point to this direction; let your mind and intention aim at it
-- energy will flow and follow on its own course, naturally and
automatically.

***


* Reverence

Nature and Mother Earth are God's creation, or, for those who abolish
the notion of God -- a creation, an aspect of creation, an aspect of the
Creating Principle -- whatever that Creating Principle may be. As such,
nature and Mother Earth are worthy of reverence. Revere nature and Mother
Earth, cultivate and enhance your reverence to nature and Mother Earth.

Cultivating one's reverence to nature and Mother Earth may be done in
various ways -- whatever way one may choose to will do. It can be done by
bringing the inherent sanctity of Mother Earth to one's mind, it can be
done by studying and connecting to various traditions and myths.

The best example for reverence to nature and Mother Earth is probably
found in the heritage, tradition and culture of Native Americans
("American Indians"), both in North and South America. It appears to be
the most proper attitude. It seems that the whole of humanity can be
blessed and benefited by the reverence and the attitude of Native
Americans to nature and Mother Earth. Studying and connecting the
reverence and attitude to nature and Mother Earth of Native Americans is
open to all who may wish to do so.

Be blessed by doing so.

Remark: aside from Native Americans reverence and attitude to nature and
Mother Earth, it seems that many of us may be greatly benefited from their
traditional attitude to values of family, especially in finding one's
happiness in the quality of relationship in one's family -- not in the
amount of one's property.

***

* Healing

Heal, give healing to nature and Mother Earth.

All who may have any experience or knowledge about healing are
encouraged wholeheartedly to conduct planetary healing sessions, that is
-- to give healing, to heal, nature and Mother Earth.

How often to conduct planetary healing sessions is a matter of personal
preference. Those who can dedicate few minutes on a daily basis may have a
great contribution. Even dedicating few minutes on a weekly basis is a
blessing.

Even those who have no previous experience with healing are encouraged
to do so. The point is that each and every human have some healing powers,
or abilities -- only some have developed it and some didn't do so.
Whatever one's healing level is, it will be very good to heal Mother
Earth. Just stand, or sit, eyes closed or open -- at your choice -- and
intend to heal Mother Earth. Just dedicate some time for this healing and
simply intend to heal the planet -- it can be done anywhere.

Please bear in mind, as much as the mechanics of healing, the way
healing actually works, is not known in full, the technique of healing, or
at least some healing techniques, are very simple. All it takes is
endeavoring to be a clean healing channel. That is, endeavoring to free
oneself, for the duration of the healing session, from any personal wishes
and desires, and intending to heal, to give healing, intending that the
Universal Healing Power will flow through oneself. The healing is actually
being done by the Universal Healing Power, or Energy -- the healer only
serves as clear channel for this Power, or Energy, to flow through. Thus,
actually anyone can heal.

Those who may hesitate to actually perform healing without any previous
experience can just pray for the healing and welfare of nature and Mother
Earth.

Whatever your healing power and experience may be, some healing is bound
to be there.

Doing so may be a good way to develop and cultivate your innate healing
powers.

Be blessed for healing Mother Earth.

***


* Praying

Pray for the healing and welfare of nature and Mother Earth.

Pray or ask silently to God, or the universe, or all-that-is, or the
Supreme Self, or pure consciousness, or the silence within, or the godhead
within. It is your choice as for who or what to address your praying or
asking, yet, it is recommended to address the highest ideal or concept you
can bring to mind. You may pray or ask aloud, though in our viewpoint
silent praying may be more effective.

Anyhow, praying can be done in a religious context, as much as it can be
done outside of any religious context. One don't have to be religious, or
to become religious, in order to pray. Praying is open to all humans --
wherever they are.

Even if there is no one out there to heed prayers, praying is soothing
the soul and it brings one's attention to a wider perspective.

** MOTHER EARTH CONSCIOUSNESS

* Foreword:

This is an extremely simple, yet quit a powerful exercise, developing
and increasing our connectedness to Mother Earth and our consciousness of
Her. A great aid in widening our perspective beyond our immediate personal
needs and wants. It helps developing our love and caring to all-that-is.
It is a great aid in breaking-through the boundaries and limitations of
our thinking mind, our conditioning and self-centeredness.

This meditation is best exercised in a forest, or by a river, or by a
lake or by the sea. It is best exercised when in seclusion, when one is
not likely to be interrupted by other people. Yet, it can be practiced at
any city or village park. It can be practiced at any back yard or front
yard. It can be also practiced in any house or room. Whenever possible, it
is best being practiced outdoors, yet, when convenient, indoors works as
well.

When being practiced outdoors, it is very good to start with some
walking. Walk calmly, at ease. Feel the contact of your feet with the
ground, feel being connected with nature around you, nature as a whole or
any part of it you may perceive. It is good to walk leisurely, enjoying
it, or at least -- aiming at enjoying it as much as you can.

You may stand, or sit, in front of any natural object. It may be a tree,
a bush, a flower, a river, a lake, a sea, a shell, a rock, a stone, a
shrub, a fruit, a bud, a leaf, a grain of sand, a blade of grass -- any
natural object. It is not recommended to practice this particular exercise
with man made or man processed objects, crystals, gems, metallic objects,
totems or power objects.

Usually this exercise is practiced with open eyes, though you may choose
to practice it with closed eyes.

---

* Instructions for Mother Earth Consciousness:

The exercise is doing one of the following:

1. Try to perceive the consciousness of the object in front of you.

2. Try to feel what the object feels, or imagine it.

3. Try to feel, or imagine, the way the object is feeling about
itself and the whole of it's surrounding, or the entire world.

4. Try to perceive the way the object is perceiving itself and it's
surrounding, or imagine it.

5. Try to merge your consciousness with the object's consciousness,
or imagine it.

6. Try to unite, to be one, with object; to become the object -- or
imagine it.

---

* PS:

This meditation is best being practiced with one object at a time. It
may be practiced for few minutes at a time, or for a longer period -- at
your choice.

Results may be apparent fairly soon, and for a while it may seem that
nothing happens. Either way, it is a very effective and powerful exercise.
With practice, in time, results are bound to be there. Whatever the pace
of progress is, regularity in practice is highly recommended.

** MOTHER EARTH MEDITATION

* Preface:

This meditation is of the guided imagery type. It is a visualization of
humanity moving to a higher step in it's evolution by recreating and
increasing connectedness and caring to Mother Earth.

It is a practical application and implementation of our widened
perspective, consciousness, caring and love. In turn, practicing this
meditation and our practical caring serves us in widening our hearts and
our perspective.

Some say that humanity is degrading itself into too much materialism.
Some say that humanity is destroying itself and our planet Earth. Whether
it is true or not, to whatever degree it is accurate or not -- it feels
like the call of our time for each and everyone to actually do the best
one can to care for humanity and Mother Earth. This meditation is a very
effective means towards this end.

---

* Foreword:

This meditation is best practiced sitting, eyes closed. One may start
with relaxation, praying or asking and shielding -- at your choice.

This meditation, much like all guided imagery meditations, is utmost
effective when it is being practiced following 5 - 15 minutes of
practicing The Silence Meditation. That is, practice the Silence
Meditation for a while and while sitting, eyes closed, switch to Mother
Earth Meditation.

All imagining may be visual or verbal.

---

* Instructions to Mother Earth Meditation:

The meditation is imagining a future utopian ideal state of affairs in
which humanity as a whole and all humans, or the majority of humans, are
having a high degree of connectedness, caring and affinity to nature and
to Mother Earth. People are having a deep and genuine respect and
reverence to nature and all it's aspects, to Mother Earth.

It is very good to try and have as better and as ideal picture as one
may have. It is good to go into details, seeing ways in which people are
respecting and caring for Mother Earth, seeing nature prospering and
blooming, seeing mutual love, respect and affinity between people and
nature.

---

* PS:

Sitting is not mandatory. It can be practiced at any time and in any
place, while working (if the nature of your work allows), while walking,
etc. Just bring to mind this ideal imagery, or your own caring and respect
to nature, whenever and wherever possible.

Practically and actively doing something towards this aspired ideal is
very helpful to the meditation. It may be "small" things, within one's
means. It may be practically feeling love, caring, respect and affinity to
nature or to natural objects. It may be feeling respect and love to a
plant, an animal, or to nature, every now and then. It may be speaking up
one's voice on the issue in the proper place and time. Whatever it may be,
the actual doing is part and parcel of the meditation itself. Much as in
all spiritual practices -- validity is in the implementation.

*** PLANETARY HEALING CIRCLES ***

Spiritual Circles were performed by humans from time immemorial. They
are one of the most powerful spiritual acts humans can do in a group. The
practical and symbolical power, meaning and significance of such circles
is supreme.

Planetary Healing Circles are probably the most effective means for
healing nature and our planet. They are the crest-jewel to all who care
about nature and Mother Earth.

Planetary Healing Circles can be done by groups of any size -- it takes
at least three people to create such a circle.

Planetary Healing Circles are best being done in the open, outside
cities residence -- though they may be done in any backyard or front-yard.

Forming a Planetary Healing Circle is very simple. Get to the spot of
your choice, collect few stones and form a circle with those stones. The
size and exact shape of the circle has no much importance.

Stand, or sit, outside the circle of stones you have created, eyes
closed or open -- at your choice. For a duration of between ten to thirty
minutes give healing to nature and Mother Earth.

Those who may have no previous healing experience may simply intend the
healing of Mother Earth, or pray for it, or perform the Mother Earth
Meditation described above.

It is recommended to perform the Mother Earth Consciousness exercise
described above, prior to performing the Planetary Healing Circle, though
it is definitely not mandatory.

Groups who may perform Planetary Healing Circles on weekly basis will be
greatly blessed. Groups who may perform Planetary Healing Circles on a
monthly basis will be greatly blessed. Even getting together and
performing a Planetary Healing Circles once every few months is a
blessing.

Be blessed for holding Planetary Healing Circles.
