Don't Throw the Seeds Away...
By: Paramita Kar;

It makes you healthy,
It gives you energy,
An apple or a guava
An orange or a papaya
Eat a fruit everyday
But don’t throw the seeds away.

Here’s a simple thing you can do
You could tell all your friends too!
Plant the seed in the soil
(It doesn’t take much time or toil)
Pour a little water there
A young shoot will soon appear.

In time it’ll become a big tree -
Which gives so much to you and me!
This way there’ll be forests again
Green and clean our earth will remain.

Grow trees this easy way -
And its fun too, I say!
So eat a fruit every day
But remember -
Don’t throw the seeds away.

Elder's Meditation of the Day




bird on a wire


"Decisions that have been made for the last couple of centuries have been
decisions made without the presence of a real God.
...from the vision, not of God, but of money."
--Tom Porter, MOHAWK

As we view the world today, it's easy to see the people are off track. We are no
longer living in harmony. Focusing on the material only leads us from the path of
the Creator.
We must now pray for ourselves and the people in a pitiful way.
We must be humble and ask the Great Spirit to intervene because if we don't,
our children will continue to have troubles. They are acting out our behavior
as adults. Today is a good time to start. We need to get the spiritual way back
into our lives. We need to focus on the spiritual.

My Creator, help me to focus on the spiritual way.

LABOR OF LOVE


DAILY BREAD


Following divine guidance in all my endeavors, I do my very best work.
In thought and prayer, I bless those who contribute their time, energy, and skills in work that benefits them and humanity.
I recognize the positive difference I can make when I give my attention, effort, and creativity in planning and completing a project. Accepting divine guidance in all my endeavors, I do my very best work.
Wherever I am, whatever my contribution is--whether it is at home, at school, in the community as a volunteer, or in outside employment--I am divinely led.
By doing my work with an openness to and appreciation for what others contribute, I pave the way for successful outcomes. Dedicated to excellence, I give my best. I am fulfilled and refreshed knowing my work is a labor of love.
"So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all the work that he had done in creation."--Genesis 2:3

THE SOUL of MEDICINE (part 2)

CARE of the SOUL
Let me paraphrase the first words I ever read by Marsilio Ficino, spokesperson for soul in fifteenth-century Italy. He begins his book on natural magic saying, "There are three things in the world: body, soul, and mind [later he refers to mind and spirit interchangeably]. If the spirit is left to itself, it will have no connection with the body. If the body is left to itself, it will have no tie to the spirit. What is needed is soul, between them and adjusted to each."

We have a good picture of the deep soul from the works of C. G. Jung, James Hillman, and others. It is the very depth of a person: the emotions and ties, the failures and fears, a sense of home and body, all intimate connections, dreams, loves, and reveries. Tradition says that this deep soul makes us human and unique. The soul is embedded in our everyday, ordinary, imperfect concrete world.

The spirit, in contrast, gives us cosmic vision, inspiration, principles for good living, a way to deal with our mortality, and the sense of unbounded transcendence. Both soul and spirit are essential and animate the body. I often explain it this way: In the presence of a highly spiritual or intellectual person, you are amazed and instructed. In the case of a person with soul, you'd like to go to dinner with him.

I frequently find that the medical people I work with have not come to grips with death. Their education and the ethos of their profession keep them focused on the technical aspects of their work. Many find it difficult to converse with their patients, and some feel quite superior on account of their knowledge. In other words, their work is lacking in soul. When I suggest some reading or classes in matters of soul and spirit, I'm always told that there just isn't enough time. "Five minutes!" I said recently to a faculty member. "We don't have three," he said. Busyness seems to be a special neurosis of the profession in its modern form.

But many of us know physicians who have severed themselves from the burden of modernism and can give their patients adequate time and full attention.

What is needed is an escape from the bubble of modernism. Medicine is devoted to evidence and proof. Medical theorists come loaded down with research findings, which they use to establish a sense of certainty in a realm teeming with mysteries.

I ask the doctors: What image of the person will I find in your consulting room? A skeleton? That's not who I am. A plastic model of intestines? That's not me, either. I'd like to see a person in animated relationship to someone else in a particular place in the world. That's what a whole person is. And when whole persons get sick, their whole being, including their families and friends, and probably their houses, participate in the illness.

Spirituality gives the soul its vision and the soul gives our lives emotional, intellectual, and even physical vitality. If medicine would address us as whole persons, having important relationships, living, and working in a particular place, with our dreams and fears and concerns, we might be able to heal from the inside out.

Thomas Moore's latest book is Dark Nights of the Soul: A Guide to Finding Your Way Through Life's Ordeals. He is the author of Care of the Soul .

THOMAS MOORE is a psychotherapist, writer and lecturer who lives in New England with his wife and two children. He has published many articles in the areas of archetypal and Jungian psychology, mythology, and the arts.

THE SOUL of MEDICINE (part 1)

CARE of the SOUL
byThomas Moore .
It's interesting that Jesus, whom we consider to be a spiritual teacher and leader, was a healer. The earliest images of him show him healing with the gesture of his hand. It's also interesting that the Buddha is honored in ritual and poetry as the Lapis Lazuli Radiant Healing Buddha. He uses almost the same gesture and holds a bowl of ointment in the other hand. Shamans, too, around the world combine their spiritual tasks with healing. It seems to be the very essence of spirituality to tend physical and emotional illnesses.
With the onset of modernistic attitudes in society, our medicine took a turn toward the mechanical and chemical. Whereas a spiritual healer might see the sick person as a blend of body, soul, and spirit, we separate the body out and treat it as though illness had nothing to do with our emotions and the ways we understand our experiences. We have made great advances in the limited sphere of an isolated body, but we still have much to learn about the connection between specific emotions and particular illnesses.
Just weeks after publishing Care of the Soul 14 years ago, I was invited by physicians to speak to them about healing the whole person. Since then, I have visited many hospitals and medical schools in several countries, recommending that isolating the body is not a good idea.
Along the way, I have discovered many programs called "spirituality and medicine" where the emphasis is usually on meditation, yoga, and various alternative healing modes. Only occasionally do I find a comprehensive view of the human being as made up of body, soul, and spirit. Of course, that's my "thing." I am persuaded that the paradigm of mind–body medicine is insufficient and that the deep soul is an important ingredient in any definition of a whole person.

WATERHOUSE

the art and life of John William Waterhouse.



Based on a poem by Robert Herrick (1591-1674)
>To Virgins to Make Much of Time<.




Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today,
To-morrow will be dying.

The glorious lamp of heaven, the Sun,
The higher he's a-getting;
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.

That age is best, which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse, and worst
Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,
And while ye may, go marry;
For having lost but once your prime,
You may for ever tarry.

MEDITATION ABOUT HEALING

DAILY WORD
http://www.dailyword.com/index.html
"Daily Word isn't of any one religion; it doesn't even suggest that one religion is the right one or the wrong one. It is about spirituality, embracing all types of beliefs and schools of thought. It is written not just for some, but for everyone, reminding us that we are children of God, that we are never alone, and that God wants us to be happy, free, and to enjoy life!
Wow, what a concept!" -
- Fannie Flagg, author and comedienne.

Daily Word in the morning is like the day’s first full breath; it brings new life.”—Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Prayer Is Good Medicine

Healing
Every cell in my body is one with God's mighty, healing presence.
The presence of God is the one power in my life, a healing presence that gives me energy and strength and a renewed sense of my oneness with the Creator.
Do I need to be healed? I take a moment to become still and feel God's healing power. The life of God is a real presence in every cell of my body, a presence that restores health and sparks renewal wherever it is needed.
In perfect order, the life of God works from the inside out, healing every cell, organ, and system of my body. In the silence, I can feel my oneness with God's healing presence as I am being renewed. Every cell in my body radiates with the energy and life of God that is working in and through me.
One with God's mighty presence, I am healed. I am whole, well, and renewed.
"Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed;
save me, and I shall be saved
."
--Jeremiah 17:14

“This is what the LORD says, he who made the earth, the LORD who formed it and established it—the LORD is his name: 'Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.”- Jeremiah 33:2-3

A Doctor Uses Reiki
by Dr. R. B. Paty; Chief Medical Officer

I am a medical doctor and have been in practice for 28 years. I have come across many patients who are not able to be cured by any of our conventional methods.
Before learning Reiki, I suffered with migraine headaches for 20 years, specifically I would get them on the day of my fast. After becoming a Reiki practitioner, my migraines have disappeared for the last four years.
A couple who are my patients, ages 70 and 62 had good results with Reiki. He would begin his mornings with alcoholic drinks and his wife had severe arthritis. She was unable to sit on the floor and had very limited mobility for 25 years. I began to give them Reiki as part of their treatment. They have both become Reiki and Karuna Reiki® practitioners, and the husband no longer has the desire for alcohol. The wife is more comfortable and has greater mobility.
