About Me:
on a journey...returning to innocence...still learning so so much and fighting for whats really me - not what i thought i was!
PRAYER OF ST. FRANCIS:
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy;
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
RUMI:
There are many people with their eyes open
whose hearts are shut. What so they see?
Matter.
But someone whose love is alert,
even if the eyes go to sleep,
he or she will be waking up thousands of others.
If you are not one of those light filled lovers,
restrain your desire-body's intensity.
Put limits on how much you eat
and how long you lie down.
But if you are awake here in the chest,
sleep long and soundly.
Your spirit will be out roaming and working,
even on the seventh level.
Muhammad says, I close my eyes and rest in sleep,
but my love never needs rest.
The guard at the gate drowses.
The King stays awake.
You have a king inside who listens
for what delights the soul.
The kings wakefulness
cannot be described in a poem.

Hey Katie,
I Loved that car ride home too :-) I don't think Jordan minded too much, he must be used to is by now!
Anyways, it was really great meeting you and I hope we can see each other again soon! As I mentioned, you're always welcome to come stay with us if you're ever in the area or just feel adventurous :-)
Speak to you soon!
I love your Rumi quote, Katie! That's just wonderful.
All the best,
Scot
Hi kate ,
I red Rumi's poets ,
the poet you wrote from Rumi is very interesting and beautiful ,
Hi Katie,
Just wanted to say thinks for accepting and glad to make your acquaintance online! I won't be going to the retreat this year but hope to go soon to another. We have a family vacation planned the same week.
I've been getting a little progress with the projecting. Still not totally there but closer. Worked on relaxation a lot and focusing on the heart instead of the mantras. Started getting vibrations which is cool. Now I need to gradually build up time - it's still hard to fall asleep on my back so I'm extending the time gradually. How are you doing with the astral work? Got any great tips? :)
One of these days we are going to meet in the astral! Let's make a goal to get to whereever the location is at the end of the course?! What do you think?
Strength and Blessings,
Gina
Hey,
I listened to some of his talks as well, they are so inspiring and make you want to put in a lot of effort.
He sounds so genuine to me, definitely a great help to hear 30 mins like that a week.
Thanks for the link I will check that out soon.
Hope you have a good week too
See you,
Túrin
