Earlier that morning I set the mesa as I felt directed to best facilitate our gathering, and here is a peek:
In the room we surrendered for an extended period and lovingly offered any attachments, good or bad. We reinforced that with the chanting externally and internally of the mantra swaha, "I surrender". Just to make sure we followed up with the loving element of water to complete the surrender so we would be ready as ever to receive. In truth that wasn't really necessary as we also learned that some of us think we have more "stuff" than we really do. The fire showed us that as we burned some hucha aka density/stuff. After all, it's all just energy that can forever be recycled and transformed.
Prior to planting the seeds I shared a beautiful yantra representing the moon from our beloved dreamworker aka All In participant, Jennifer Ananda Schmidt, representing the loving mother that the moon truly is. And she said I can share, so now you can see her representation of what you felt through this process and use it for future reference in case you forget how loving and generous the moon really is.
So as we inquired, Who Am I?, we opened our hearts. Similar Hanuman, who has Sita and Ram inside his heart, there was someone inside...our divine inner child. We re-connected with the ever so wise, awful and embracer of the magic of the world and it's infinite possibilities. Having our child blossom from our hearts and share with us his/her Pure Imagination was very sweet.
When complete we thanked our child as he/she returned to our hearts, and we made sure to remind them that we would never desert them. While I was literally weaving each of your seeds into a blossom in the garland of dreams,
those present in 3D were given a little white clay that was malleable. We put form to the wisdom that was shared by the beloved Divine Child. But as you know, no attachments in this group, because we trust that we can create, surrender back to the source and then re-create again. So we ended with a large ball of white clay with the totality of our pieces, representing global consciousness and it had all of our loving participation.
We then spoke our prayers for loved ones in our community, on the globe and in the galaxy as represented by the rose in the garland. To reinforce the prayers, we offered bubble prayers through this amazing bubble wand I found following the Yellow Brick Road through London.
To make sure we included all the elements as we already had water with the hand cleansing, earth with the clay and air with the bubbles, we burned the papers with your seeds to have compost and, again, no attachments. Of course, no ceremony would be complete without the taking in of the sweetness in the form of chocolate. So we savored it as we ate it to show the unseen world world how ready, willing and able we are to take on the abundance and get their assistance.
As I went outside to offer the water, ash and garland, there was a beautiful light snow. It felt very auspicious as if our prayers were well received. Well we had other proof earlier in the evening. After we completed a final chanting to raise our prayers and dreams. I then gave a little extra loving nudges with my condor feather whisking it to the heavens. With a final whisk, I realized it was well received and I said so. And as if by affirmation, my home phone rang, it felt like God calling. Well it was in the form of a two-legged. When I finally checked the message, it was my sister offering me a gift of tickets to the theater. I was barely completed with the service and the gifts were already happening. See it's that easy. You just can't be attached how and the form.
As I mentioned, I burned the papers with your seeds and dreams. This created compost as the fire represented the transformation of your dreams into reality And, just in case you are interested, the fire burned sweetly and softly. In fact, the images in the fire looked like a blossoming flower.
So in the beautiful snow, I walked to the east river (after offering the water to the famous heart tree) and offered both the garland of dreams and the ashes wrapped in the paper (recycled of course) that you see below. As always, a pleasure and an honor and I am touched deeply to be able to pray with and for you.
P.S. Feedback from friends in California that did the dreamwork together. They also spent the evening out on a bluff near Yogananda Prashanda's center. Here they are enjoying the chocolate and look what they enjoyed in the sky...remind anyone of anything.
