Special Days for Meditation – August 2010
There’s no day in a month that isn’t auspicious for Meditation; in fact, Meditation itself brings sacredness to the day, to the time. Yet there are time-periods in a day, like early morning before sunrise, where the conditions are most suitable for Meditations. Similarly, there are a few days in a month where special energies are released and important events occur at different levels, which make them the most auspicious for any Spiritual activity. The following days are very important for Meditations in the month of August 2010. We may practice the special techniques provided for each of these days, or practice our regular techniques.
Aug 10 – New Moon Day (Amavasya)
This is a day we go within to introspect, contemplate and learn.
This is also a day where we can connect with our departed elders and ancestors easily. We connect with them mainly to express our Love, and also to learn from them and apply the Wisdom in our lives.
A simple way of doing this is to take the help of Light. We sit down like in Meditations facing North. We imagine a golden ball of Light collecting in our mentally extended hands for about 2 minutes. We then link up to our elders and ancestors with our strong intent and then offer this ball of Light to them.
Experience the golden Light that we offered to the elders for 7 minutes. Through this Golden Light, we will be able to interact with them.
Aug 20 – Worship of Goddess Mahalakshmi
Mahalakshmi is goddess of wealth in the Indian tradition. Due to the dilution of values in the dark ages, people began to worship her only for the material wealth – money and comforts. She is also the goddess for the Spiritual Wealth.
Her energies also help the individual to become contented and detached.
The energies of this Goddess will be available on this Earth for 10 days – from Aug 20th to Aug 29th. If you are sensitive, you can easily feel her presence. Otherwise also, try to feel her presence for all the 10 days.
You can welcome and greet her on Aug 20th. The preferable time is 12 noon or at 6pm.
For Meditation, the simple technique is – Imagine that you are sitting inside Goddess Mahalakshmi or inside a pink ball of Light. The Light surrounds you on all sides. Experience this Light, and also interact with it. Practise for a minimum of 24 minutes.
You can do this on all the 10 days.
Aug 22 – World Healing Day
This day is dedicated for healing everyone in this world.
Imagine that you are sitting inside the Goddess of Healing – Santoshi Devi. Experience her in the form of dark pink energies for 7 minutes.
You can also pass this energy to anyone who needs healing, with your intent for 7 minutes only.
Aug 24 – Full Moon Day (Pournima)
The Full moon Day or Pournima is the day when all energies are at their maximum potency. Because of this factor, this day is very good for both material and spiritual activities.
On this day, we are blessed by the Divine for any of the good deeds we do. Rishis say that it’s a very good day for Meditation, Prayers, Inner Healing and Positivising because the Spiritual Energies are at their best.
On this day Spiritual work like anchoring of energies can be successfully done as there will be a direct guidance from the Source God, ParaBrahma Himself. All spiritual activities can be easily accomplished because they evoke the grace of God Himself.
Aug 24 – Upakarma
Upakarma is the annual occasion for Brahmins to replace their sacred thread.
Maharshi Amara had explained that it was worn by people as a badge of righteous living. Initially it was worn by everyone. For those who were involved with lots of physical activity like farming, the thread made out of cotton would not last long and hence they stopped wearing it. Then the unfortunate caste system developed.
This day is very special spiritually. It is the day where you rededicate yourself to grow spiritually and make positive affirmations and resolutions. The energies will help.
Two great personalities – Lord Anjaneya and Lord Parashurama will be easily accessible on this day and at the astral level, they’ll bless everyone who make this postive affirmation with the sacred thread.
Pray to them before making your resolutions.
Aug 25 – Death Anniversary of Maharshi Amara
Maharshi Amara left his physical body on 25th August 1982. He continues to guide and work for humanity, from the higher levels.
Offer respects to him and communicate with him. Try to experience him as well.
Aug 30 – Opening of Doorway to the Inner Earth
(For more details about the Inner Earth Doorway read Cosmic Events of Soluntra King)
The technique is – Expand your awareness to a size larger than the Earth, so that the entire Earth is within you. Channel a lot of Golden Light to the Earth. While doing this, have a strong link with Mother Earth with your intent and also experience Earth’s rotation inside you.
