Spiritual Awakening: Spiritual Poker!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Spiritual Poker!

 

Life is often like a poker game. The best hand when playing poker is a royal flush while in our spiritual poker game  the best hand we can have is self actualization. The first rule in our spiritual poker game is to come  straight from the heart.The next rule of the spiritual poker game is that we do not use money but we use spiritually related items to place our bets like a complimentary card reading. The third rule in our spiritual poker game is that you can not fold. The fourth rule is that there will be 2 passes made, the cards dealt, first round of betting, exchange of cards then a second round of betting and then everyone shares their hand and the winner then gets the pot. In between hands players will be encouraged to write down their thoughts in a personal journal and to share their feelings about the hand so as to clear their thoughts to play the next hand.  The idea of host a spiritual poker game is to bring people together to fellowship while also expanding their spiritual growth. In spiritual growth it is not about winning it is about enlightenment. The key will be to shuffle up and deal and grow in spirituality. As you play spiritual poker you can seek guidance from your angels, your spiritual guides, any ascended masters, GOD, Jesus or other spiritual sources for assistance.

Imagine instead of using chips and playing for money that you would purchase Tokens of Appreciation for www.tofa.us and at the end the game everyone would agree to share the coins with others and regardless of the hands that were put together that night at the poker table everyone would benefit because there would be more of these tokens in the world.

Spiritual Awakening: Going The Distance!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Going The Distance!!!

As many of you who are regular readers of this blog know I am a big fan of The Rocky Movies my favorite being the 1st one.  The character Rocky showed a desire to go the distance because no one had ever gone the distance against Apollo Ccreed. Rocky had this internal spirit that kept him going. Some would call it a spiritual awakening as through his training his life began to change as he gained a romantic interest in Adrienne and saw far beyond her outer appearance. We all know how the movie ended Rocky went the distance and achieved a goal and that led to the second movie where Rocky was granted a rematch with Apollo and he won.  Rocky shows that following a passion and  taking action leads to success. As we go forward in the spiritual awakening process it is important to make a commitment to go the distance and stay on our path allowing things to unfold as GOD has intended.

 The key in being awake and aware and embracing your spirituality is to know that GOD plans for you are far greater than any plans that you may have in store. GOD wants to prosper you and reward you, however you must commit to going the distance with GOD and allow him to lead you to the promised land. In living a purpose driven life guided by GOD in which you create a oneness consciousness you will see great things unfold in your personal and professional life. In waking up and making a declaration that today is the day the lord hath made and I will rejoice and be glad in it you will set the tone to go the distance in all that you do.  In committing to do things with the end in mind and going the distance you will set in motion all that is necessary to manifest the life you desire.

Spiritual Awakening: What Are You Waiting For?

Spiritual Awakening: What Are You Waiting For?

 Today’s entry was inspired by Nickelback’s song what are you waiting for? In the spiritual awakening process it is important to become an action taker and do things with a sense of purpose and passion. I have learned over the years that you either find a way or you find an excuse. It is said that the wealthiest people are found in a cemetery as their ideas and dreams died with them because they kept waiting or they listened to the naysayers. So many times people do not embrace their spiritual gifts and GOD Given Talents that it becomes to late because as they sit on their death bed recounting what could have been, what might have been, or what they should have been their time runs out. To avoid any regrets in your final days take action on your idea implement it and see what happens. Sometimes you just have to take it to the streets.

Collinsville Relay for Life kicks of Jan. 23 A few years ago I had an idea to run POINTS FOR THE CURE FOOTBALL EDITION and I was doing it every week with not so much success so this year I tweaked the idea and I am now taking it to the streets to be run from 10/22-28/2014 where people will choose their favorite College or Professional Football Team and after they play will visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg2 and donate $.25 (25 cents) per point that their team scored.  I have been utilizing a 3 foot rule where I share this information. Many people have been receptive and think it is a great idea as it combines something they like watching with helping a good cause. The key is to come up with the idea then implement it and make changes so it evolves.  I have learned that in all you do you must take action and take it to the streets. Let people hear your message and build their trust as people want to engage with people they know, like, and trust.  Ask yourself why am I hesitating, what am I waiting for then take action and start. Sometimes it is turning to GOD ans seeking to have a fire started in you.

Spiritual Awakening: Going Forward!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Going Forward!!!

 As I was out collecting donations and promoting The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Boca Raton I ran across many great people with excellent energy, however there were a few who had bad energy. I fed off the good energy. I decided to move forward when I encountered the negative energy. A few encounters stuck out as a few people stated that they were broke. When I heard this I took it as a teaching moment and explained that they should never state I am broke but should state not at this time as my finances improve I will be able to donate.  I told them that GOD and The Universal Powers want them to prosper. I used Ken Esrig’s Dollar Bill Sandwich and explained that money flows to them and from them and they are a conduit for money. They asked what religion I was I said I am a spiritualist who walks with Jesus(one of the ascended masters). They thanked me. It felt good to be able to share my light with others.  The positive encounters far outweighed the negative encounters. The lesson I learned is that the enemy will put up roadblocks and challenges but if you embrace your inner divinity and walk with  GOD you will end up going forward. We all have the power to move forward and combat any negativity that may enter our day. One of my spiritual teachers, Lourdes Mota, taught me to just breathe and embrace my I AM and let the negative go. I have learned what we focus on expands so if we focus on being loving and caring in all we do we expand the love that we will receive. Our vibration and the energy we bring to a task will often determine the outcome of that task. Look at what you are emanating and how it is helping you to go forward and keep using that positive energy and look at what is holding you back and eliminate that behavior.
In the spiritual awakening process and making the commitment to go forward I have come to understand that life is a highway and how we ride it determines our destination. We can focus on what lies behind us or what lies before us that decision is up to us. If we are determined to go forward we must commit to removing the blockages of what lies behind us as focus our attention on what is in front of us. This is the reason our windshield is much larger than our rear view mirror. If we make what is perceived to be a mistake it is up to us to look for the learning lesson and then use this lesson to go forward.

Spiritual Awakening: Get On Up Off Of That Thing!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Get On Up Off Of That Thing!!!

 One may find it a bit out there to use the music of James Brown to express the concepts of spiritual awakening however the truth is until you are committed to getting off your ass and getting up to dance the way you want and create the life that you want you will continue to go in circles.  It is when you embrace the spiritual awakening and get off the sidelines that you begin to create a life filled with much peace, love, joy, and prosperity. I was at an event the another night where the parishioners were getting up and praising GOD and allowing spirit to flow through them and from them. The people praising were releasing many of the blockages that may have been creating challenges in their personal and professional lives. In getting on up off of that thing  they were able to experience a spiritual bliss that now allows them to honor GOD daily and as a result be honored by GOD. In the spiritual awakening process it is important to let go and let GOD. There will be times in the spiritual awakening process that you may not understand why but in due time it will all be revealed to you. It is when you commit to taking action and allowing GOD to direct you that you are put in favor and the outcomes you desire come to fruition.

In getting up off of that thing you will want to truly feel the desire that you want to attract. Visualization is a great tool to use. Act as if it has already happened and watch what begins to occur. I have often visualized what it would look and feel like to stand up and tell a group of volunteers for The American Cancer Society how important the role they play in creating a world with less cancer and more birthdays is. As a result f doing this I have spoken to over 2500 Relay For Life Participants and delivered a positive message. Believe it or not there was a time in my life that I was shy and reserved and afraid to speak to large groups then one day I decided to get on up off of that thing and  step into the arena of public speaking. Since that day I have flourished and won awards for public speaking. Today I host a radio show and a TV Show. You can hear the radio show on Monday at 6 PM EDT on www.blogtalkradio.com/hrafnstongradio. You can view The TV Show on Tuesday at 6:30 PM EDT on www.wrpbitv.com. It was the day that I had the courage to get on up off that thing and take action that I began having success. As a result I have won numerous awards including The Governor’s Point Of Light Award.  In answering my calling and following the path that GOD has set for me I have been able to become a great announcer, a successful voice over talent, a published author, an inspirational speaker. and a tremendous fundraiser.

Spiritual Awakening: Blow Me Up!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Blow Me Up!!!!

Today I thought of balloons and how they represent the spiritual awakening process. The balloon starts of empty and then you fill it with air, it expands, and in the end brings joy to those who encounter it. Much like the spiritual awakening process; we begin empty and as we get in tune with our spirituality we begin to expand and as we expand and adopt an attitude of positivity  we begin to bring joy to those we come in contact with and thus we grow personally, professionally, and spiritually. Just as it takes action to blow up the balloon it takes action to create a  world filled with peace, love, joy, and prosperity.  If we are to find peace, love, joy, and prosperity we must be blown up with peace, love, joy, and prosperity. In the awakening process we may adopt anthems that represent peace, love, joy, and prosperity. We may do this with a sign that reads FREE HUGS and hang that sign with a few balloons to draw attention to it  to show those we come in contact with that day that we are walking in our truth and spreading light to all we meet.

Like the Balloon that we fill with helium with a message we must also get blown up with the spirit of the message. If our message is to be peace then we must walk out talk and be peaceful.  One way to blow yourself up is to fill yourself with the message by getting in touch with your own divinity and creating a oneness consciousness with GOD.  In finding inner peace and making the connection to GOD you will begin to create a life filled with peace, love, joy, and prosperity. In answering your calling and spreading your message you will change your life and lives around you by simply coming alive and blowing yourself up with spirituality.

Spiritual Awakening: Be Bold And Take Off!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Be Bold And Take Off!!!

 Today’s entry is inspired by Steve Miller’s Song Jet Airliner as he describes moving on to pursue his dream. In the spiritual awakening process it is important to be bold and fully committed so that you can take off. Many times we find ourselves pulled back into the situations that we were seeking to leave behind. Sometimes it is the fear of the unknown that holds us back. Then one day we decide we are going to face everything and rise and we propel ourselves forward and we begin to truly soar.  It is understanding our spiritual calling and becoming aware and awake that we are able to become an action taker and create the life we seek for ourselves.  One thing that has helped me to be bold and takeoff  has been to adopt anthems that keep me on my spiritual path and help me to embrace my own divinity. In moving forward and being bold we become more awake and thus we are able to answer our calling. In answering our calling we are able to move forward in the direction of our dreams and make changes in our personal and professional lives. In coming alive and awakening we begin to further understand that the level we vibrate on and the resonance and energy that we give off begins to be seen by others and thus the world becomes a better place. When we are bold we begin to take off and our community is better served because we take action to improve our life and the lives of those around us. I have often stated it is when we think globally and act locally that we truly take off.

 In many cases you need to board a plane and take off to pursue your dreams. I interviewed Jake Ducey, Author of Into The Wind, recently and he spoke of his bold step to travel 1/2 way around the world and go with the flow. He states as a result he found himself and his calling. I personally served as a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer in The Philippines from July 2002 until February 2003. It was in making this bold move and boarding the plane that I was able to experience personal and professional  growth. In the six months that I served I learned a lot about myself. On my 16 hour trip back to The United States I was able to do much introspection and was able to understand that my calling was to help other people excel.  It was in making a bold move that I was able to takeoff.

Spiritual Awakening:Putting The Right Energy Into Your Day!!!

Spriritual Awakening:Putting The Right Energy Into Your Day

  Today’sblog entry was inspired by my work with The  American Cancer Society Relay For Life Of West Boca Raton as I started my day with introspection and realized I was bringing the wrong energy focus to my fundraising efforts. I wa smaking it about me being recognized as a STAR Supporter, someone who raises at least $1500, instead of looking at it from the stand point of helping people. I put expectations out there that everyone should donate and that everyone I speak to can afford to donate $1. This expectation may be true however through introspection I realized that Some Will, Some Won’t, Some Waiting, So What, Next?  As a result I shifted my energy and attitude and decided I am a man of faith, service, and value and GOD will direct me to the people who will give he will put a few challenging people in front of me as well so as to help me with my journey to not take things personally and not to be so agreesive and not to be defensive if my intergrity comes into question for it has nothing to do with me but everything to do with the person I am approaching.  I have come to the conclusion that when you put the right energy into your day that good things will happen and when you have the proper intention behind what you are doing you will shift and attract more positive energy than negative. There will alsways be people that are negative or that seem to have an attitude problem and they are just not ready for the lesson of kindness or of being of service and value. They will wake up and realize that part of their struggle is part of the vibrational energy they are giving off and one day they will begin to put the righ energy forward into their day.

     Through the introspection process I began to realize that the negative energy that I was attracting was because I was being negative and showing my frustration because people weren’t doing what I expected them to do or what I wanted them to do. I then realized I can not force people to donate, I can not demand people to advertise in www.labonitakidz.com, I can not force anyone touse my services, all I can do is put positive energy out there, be of service and value, and let people see what I am doing to help other people excel and allow them to choose to follow me and use my services or donate to my cause.

Spiritual Awakening: Getting Stoned

Spiritual Awakening: Getting Stoned

Okay where did your mind go with this title? I am not talking about the use of marijuanna or other substances to alter your thinking, I am talking about the use of stones and crystals to further your journey on your spiritual path. I first kearned about stones and crystals from Sonia Alexandra, who you can find more information about at www.stonehealing.com.  By understanding stones ans chrystals you will be able to heal yourself and thus help to heal others.

One way to use the crystals(gemstones) is to carry them with you in a bag and each day cleanse them so as to increase their powers.

I found the following at www.old-earth.com that will help you in cleansing your stones:

Cleanse and Charge Your Gemstones and Crystals

Crystals and Gemstones Need to be Cleansed As we work with our Gemstones; either to extract electro-magnetic energies to cleanse or introduce them to build support structure; some of the residue remains. Even if someone holds the crystal to simply admire it, a trace of their field lingers. These traces are not “bad” or “evil”, just as dirt is not “bad” or “evil”. However, the energetic impulse traces will affect the stones and, therefore, an accumulation needs to be cleansed away.

Spiritual Awakening: Incense, Insight, and More!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Incense, Insight, and More

As I was getting ready to write this blog I closed my eyes and inhaled the incense and asked source what I should write about and source answered with this headline. I am alsways amazed how when I burn my incense and close everything else off that answers to my questions appear. When I tell people about the practice of buring incense many of those not on a spiritual path scoff. I take a breathe and intrnally say to myself they don’t know what they are missing. I often will draw a hot bath, light some candles, put on a mediation cd, like the one I have from Sonia Alexandra, burn the incense and clear my mind to get grounded. I also like to do this ritual using a cd my mother gave me of tribual and natural sounds.  I have also found that listening to instrumentals, tribal chants, sounds of nature will asssit with gaining insight thus contiuning on a spirtual path to personal growth and enlightenment.

There have been times when I will go to the big pool at The Sunrise Lakes Phase III Clubhouse and make a small quiet peaceful area for myself with the incense buring while I read books like Ernest Chu’s Soul Currency, Amy Hammond Hagberg’s How Do You Know He is Real, Guy Finley’s The Seeker, The Search, The Sacred, and others that are now in my library for spiritual growth.
