Thymus and the significance of T-cells and Covid-19

It is fascinating to learn that scientists are now regarding the emerging discovery of T-Cells as equally important to antibodies in the fight against Covid-19.

SCIENCE

Your thymus is a small gland in the lymphatic system that makes, and trains special white blood cells called T-cells. The T-cells help your immune system fight disease and infection. Your thymus gland produces most of your T-cells before birth. The rest are made in childhood, and you’ll have all the T-cells you need for life by the time you hit puberty.

What is the thymus?

The thymus is a small gland that’s part of your lymphatic system. Your lymphatic system is made up of a network of tissues, vessels, and organs such as your tonsils, spleen, and appendix. Your lymphatic system is a part of your immune system. It helps defend against infection and disease.

What does the thymus do?

The primary function of the thymus gland is to train special white blood cells called T-lymphocytes or T-cells. White blood cells (lymphocytes) travel from your bone marrow to your thymus. The lymphocytes mature and become specialized T-cells in your thymus.

After the T-cells have matured, they enter your bloodstream. They travel to your lymph nodes (groups of cells) and other organs in your lymphatic system, where they help your immune system fight disease and infection.

Your thymus gland is also part of your endocrine system. Your endocrine system makes and releases hormones that control the functions of your body. Your thymus produces and releases several hormones including:

  • Thymopoietin: fuels the production of T-cells and tells the pituitary gland to release hormones.
  • Thymosin and thymulin: help make specialized types of T-cells.
  • Thymic humoral factor: keeps your immune system working properly.

During what age is the thymus gland most active?

The thymus gland is most active during childhood. Your thymus actually starts making T-cells before you’re born. It keeps producing T-cells and you have all the T-cells you need by the time you reach puberty. After puberty, your thymus gland slowly starts to decrease in size and is replaced by fat.

ANATOMY

Where is the thymus located?

The location of your thymus gland is in your upper chest behind your breastbone (sternum). It sits between your lungs in a part of your chest called the mediastinum. Your thymus is just in front of and above your heart.

What does the thymus gland look like?

The thymus gland is pinkish grey. It is made up of two irregularly shaped parts (lobes). The lobes have lots of small bumps called lobules on the surface.

How big is the thymus gland?

The thymus gland is quite big in babies and children. It reaches its biggest weight of about 1 ounce during puberty. After puberty, it begins to shrink, and in older adults, it’s rather small.

CONDITIONS AND DISORDERS

There are disorders that can affect the thymus gland, but this is not the place to be listing them.

Many conditions and disorders can affect your thymus gland. The issues range from genetic disorders present at birth to diseases most commonly seen in adults.

Does this sacred gland hold the secret to overcoming Covid-19?

T-cells: the missing link in coronavirus immunity?

Scientists who have spent months focused on the role of antibodies in fighting Covid-19 are beginning to suspect that a lesser known part of the immune system is equally crucial: T-cells. Evidence is emerging that T-cells, which can “remember” past infections and kill pathogens if they reappear, have a big influence on how long patients remain resistant to reinfection by Covid-19. The cells, whose size and complexity dwarf tiny antibodies, also appear to affect how well vaccines work and even the level of immunity in the community required to suppress new waves of disease. “Antibodies do look slightly precarious and transient in the blood, while there is a lot of evidence that T-cells are long lasting,” said Mala Maini, professor of viral immunology at University College London. People who recovered from Sars, the disease most closely related to Covid-19, in 2003 still show cellular immunity to that coronavirus 17 years later. T-cells, which circulate in the blood, might protect people who have been infected and recovered from the new coronavirus but have no detectable antibodies shortly thereafter.

Immunity to any infection arises from a complicated interplay of different cells and proteins such as antibodies, which are produced in various human tissues. Some are designed to recognise invading germs. Others have the job of destroying them. T-cells come in several different types, including killer T-cells, helper T-cells and memory T-cells. Then there are B-cells — another essential category of white blood cell. Among other roles B-cells are the immune system’s antibody factories. Al Edwards, associate professor at Reading University’s School of Pharmacy, offers an analogy. “T-cells are tasting the virus whereas the antibodies are feeling the virus,” he said. “T-cells can promote antibody responses and antibody responses can promote a T-cell response. These two systems work together.”  “Even if you’re left with no detectable circulating antibodies, that doesn’t necessarily mean you have no protective immunity, because you are likely to have memory immune cells (B and T cells) that can rapidly kick into action to start up a new immune response if you re-encounter the virus,” added Prof Maini of UCL. “So you might well get a milder infection.”

Holistic Healthcare – TCM

T-Cells are produced in a small gland called the thymus, which sits just above the breastbone, on top of the heart. From the Western medical perspective, the thymus gland is linked to our lymphatic and immune systems, helping us to fight infection. It is especially active during childhood and then starts to deteriorate after adolescence. The thymus gland is also an important centre in the body’s meridian system, mapped out in ancient Chinese medicine, and the chakra energy centres in the subtle body.

The location of the thymus is also significant. It is positioned within the heart meridian, as well as the lesser-known higher heart chakra, representing the transpersonal aspect of the heart, unconditional divine love and compassion. It is therefore unsurprising that the thymus can hold a lifetime’s worth of unprocessed emotions such as anxiety, sadness, and grief, stuck in layers of the physical and energetic body and affecting our vibrational frequency.

Our ancestors knew the innate intelligence and wisdom of the sacred thymus! The ancient Chinese, Indian yogic, Egyptian, and Mayan traditions all recognised that to open our thymus is to open and infuse our lives with forgiveness, love, and compassion. For this reason, many of them performed special healing techniques and ceremonies to activate the thymus.

Thymus self-care is particularly important and potent at a time when the fear response is on high alert, and we encourage you to cleanse this energetic centre to optimise its function and stimulate the production of T-Cells.

The thymus is very sensitive to both positive and negative sounds, and sound therapy can help to restore balance to your chakra.

There are also a few simple practices that you can try at home to stimulate the flow of energy, move through blockages, and bring about harmony and equilibrium:

  1. If you have a singing bowl at home you can try lying down, placing the bowl directly on to your body and simply allowing the acoustic vibrations to move through your sternum.
  2. Practice Qigong  
  3. Try tapping on your energy meridians, particularly those directly under your collar bones (tip: these spots will probably feel sore if you press into them).
  4. Thymus patting/tapping: Using your fingertips or side of your fist, tap up and down and counter-clockwise, about 2-3 inches along your sternum, between and above your breasts. The thymus is located behind the third rib, but any vibrations along the length of the upper sternum will stimulate it. Do this for 15-20 seconds and continue to take regular slow breaths. Do 1-3 times a day or up to 4 during times of acute illness. It can be all you need to ward off a cold or illness as the thymus is stimulated to release all those infections fighting white blood cells.

Thymus and Heart Chakra

The Heart Chakra has been referred as the seat of the soul. The Heart Chakra represents unconditional Divine Love. Unconditional love is free of ego; therefore a healthy higher heart facilitates spiritual growth and deep inner transformation.

Opening our thymus chakra enhances our willingness to forgive and to show compassion. Unlocking it corresponds to flinging open a window for your soul to work through in the material world. Often, people who get in touch with their ascended heart will desire to hand its gifts on to others because, as receptacles of divine love, they also feel it flowing from them like water from a spring.

In our everyday lives we can connect to our heart, through sound through music, it reminds us of past love, events, memories, and moments that have captured our soul.

So, for a thriving thymus chakra, listen to music, sing like nobody is hearing, dance like nobody is watching or play a musical instrument.

In my Energy Healing treatments I hold space for healing, I use the divine  universal energy to restore depleted energy in my clients and restore vitality to each Chakra. It’s possible to dissolve blockages and become aligned once again with your true self.

Ancient Civilizations – Ancient Human Life on this Planet

Posted on by Holistichealthcarewx

Sources suggest that human life began on this planet 5.5 – 10.5 million years ago, though the first “humans” did not have physical bodies.

There is a suggestion that the Sphinx may date back about 5 million years.

Some of the sources include:

The first root race was Polarian, followed by Hyperboean – both these races where non-corporeal.

The third root race were the Lemurians, and had physical bodies like us.

These early races created bodies because they wanted to experience life in physical form, and some of these bodies may not have been human – the mythical centaurs (half man, half horse) may have been result of some of their experiments.

This is how Dr Joshua David Stone describes the seven root races (A Complete Ascension Manual, page 5):

Root raceContinentAttunementChakraYoga
1 PolarianThe imperishable sacred landPhysical attunement1Hatha
2 HyperboreanHyperboreaPhysical attunement1Hatha
3 LemurianLemuriaPhysical attunement2Hatha
4 AtlanteanAtlantisEmotional attunement3Bhakti
5 AryanEurope, Asia Minor, AmericaMental attunement4Raja
6 MeruvianNorth AmericaPersonality integration5Agni
7 ParadisianTaraSoul attunement6Unknown


Dr. Stone says that the first race appeared about 18.5 million years ago.

We are the Aryan race, and the Meruvian race is just starting to appear in North America and Australasia. The Paradisian race and the continent of Tara are yet to appear on the planet.

Dr. Doreal describes how the first beings inhabited the polar regions (Polarian and Hyperboean), which where warm and tropical at that time. Also, around 500,000 years ago, the earth was covered in a thick water mist and the beings had gill like extensions in the throat for breathing.

A serpent-like civilization inhabited the South polar region and was constantly at war with the other beings (the serpent sign is also used to indicate Sirians – see later).

There is other evidence of ancient inhabitation by intelligent life:

  • grooved metal spheres in rock which is 2.8 billion years old. Hundreds of these artificial objects have been found in South African mines.
  • shoe prints in Cambrian rocks, alongside fossils of marine arthropods. One imprint was of a sandal worn on the right foot, alongside fossils dating back 590 million years.
  • polished square cubes and a block of silver in a coal deposit dating 280 – 320 million years old.
  • carved bell-shaped metallic vessel basted out of rock 600 million years old.
  • a gold thread embedded in stone 320 – 360 million years old

These finds are quietly ignored by science because there is absolutely no explanation for them according to the current theory of human evolution.

Shamballa

I am using the term Shamballa to refer to civilizations in the Gobi desert region. There was certainly a great civilization there in the past, and indications are that it predated Lemuria and Atlantis. The term Shamballa has been used.

Dr. Doreal has an image which was unearthed from a temple in the Gobi desert, and he dates it back about 50,000 years.

It shows short stocky men, with long thin arms and legs, grass skirts, strange shells, and an image of something he calls the Kraken. The hair and facial features of the men are unlike any race known on the planet today.

The booklet explains that the man on the right is covering his pineal gland, showing the separation of men from the governing incorporeal beings – which is in keeping with the Rosicrucian explanations.

Gobi, Sahara, and the Australian deserts have all been populated in the past, and these regions where not deserts a few thousand years ago.

Lemuria (Mu)

MAP OF INDIA IN 30,000 B.C. Modified after a map in “Ancient World”, North Mahalingam.
International Society for Investigation of Ancient Civilization.
101 Mount Road, Guindy, Madras, India 50032

Mu is another name for Lemuria.

The Lemurians were apparently a short, stocky, dark-skinned Matriachal race. There is good evidence for the land of Lemuria – much better than evidence for Atlantis.

It is placed in the Pacific Ocean, covering from India, across Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands to Hawaii in the north and Easter Island in the east. There are coral reefs in deep water off the coast of some of the Pacific Islands, suggesting that at one time the land was higher (or that the sea level was much lower).

Govindam’s “Babaja and the 18 Siddha Kriya Yoga Tradition” shows a map of India in 30,000 BC, joining India to Australia (it also shows Mt Meru as one of the mountain peaks – other sources put Mt Meru at the north pole, or as another name for the Great Pyramid in Egypt!).

Atlantis

Atlantis is one of the best known mythical continents, referred to by Plato and other legends.

Many people have theorized where it may have been – from the middle of the Atlantic, to Antarctica, Indonesia, Greenland, and a volcanic island near Greece which erupted a few thousand years before Plato’s time.

Some sources suggest that there is evidence of structures on the sea floor off the east coast of northern USA, but no hard evidence has been produced.

It may well be that there were Homo Sapiens Sapiens civilizations living in a number of different continents (archaeological evidence certainly supports this), and the people of this era could generically be called “Atlantians”.

(From A Dweller on Two Planets, Phylos the Thibetan)
 

Most sources agree that Atlantis existed in parallel with Lemuria but was colonized later.

It had developed technology somewhat in advance of the present day, and it was through misuse of the technology in some way which attributed to the fall of Atlantis and the entire continent descending into the sea.

Some sources say that the sea level rose as the ice age came to a close, others attribute it to a meteorite strike, a volcanic eruption, misuse of their technology – maybe it was a combination of factors.

Around 11,600 BC Atlantis disappear to the ocean floor somewhere. This coincides with the end of the ice age (known fact) and is supposed to be the mythical flood in the bible.
 


Other Perspectives

In his book “The Masters and The Path”, CW Leadbeater (of the Theosophical Society) describes (page 30) the residence of Kuthumi, Master Morya and Djwhal Khul in a ravine in Tibet.

Nearby, he describes the entrance to an occult museum which these masters protect on behalf of the Great White Brotherhood.

The museum houses images of every type of man which has existed on the planet,

“…from gigantic loose-jointed Lemurians to pigmy remains of even earlier and less human races.”

Also original manuscripts written by Lord Buddha, and the Book of Dzyan, and scripts from other worlds.
 


Inner Earth Societies

At the time of the flood, the intelligent beings on the planet either (a) went underground, or (b) build boats (collectively called “Noah” – not one person, but many individuals).

As the waters receded, many of the underground people emerged, but some stayed underground.

Those underground are said to still have large civilizations there – they are said to be quiet, peace-loving people, with technology, who live long lives. The Ascended Masters are said to belong to these races.

The humans who emerged from underground (Hopi legends tell how they came out of the ground) began the following races:

–  Hopi (American Indians)

–  Aborigines (Australia)

–  Druids (England)

–  Ainu (Japan)

–  Snake people (of 5,000 – 6,000 BC, now extinct. Note that the snake/serpent is a sign of Sirian energy)

–  Dravidians (India)

The skin colours of the races were originally:

–  red –        Atlantis, North America

–  black –    Sudan, West Africa

–  brown –   Andes, Lemuria

–  yellow –  Gobi desert

–  white –    Iran, Europe

Ice Ages on Earth

The great ages of the earth are labelled by archaeologists as follows:

–  Pre-Cambrian – 3.9 billion to 540 million years ago

–  Paleozoic – 540 million – 245 million years ago

–  Mesozoic – 245 million – 66.4 million years ago

–  Cenozoic – 66.4 million years ago to present

The Cenozoic era is divided into epochs:

a)  Tertiary, composed of:

–  Palaeocene –   66.4 – 57.8 million years ago

–  Eocene –         57.8 – 36.6 millions years ago

–  Oligocene –      33.6 – 23.7 million years ago

–  Miocene –        23.7 – 5.3 million years ago

–  Pliocene –         5.3 – 1.6 million years ago

b)  Quaternary, composed of:

–  Pleistocene – 1.6 million years ago to 10,000 years ago

–  Holocene –     10,000 years ago until present

These time periods are arbitrarily assigned by humans, designed to coincide with major changes which took place on the planet.

The last ice age was during the Pleistocene period, and technically we are still in it, or just coming out of it. Currently about 11% of the land area of the world is covered by ice/glaciers, holding about three-quarters of all the fresh water of the planet.

If it were all to melt the sea level would rise 90 meters.

During the height of the ice age of the Pleistocene period, up to 30% of the land area was covered with ice, and the sea level was 35 meters lower about 13,000 years ago when a sudden warming occurred, and the ice abruptly receded.

Somewhere 10,000 – 12,000 years ago there certainly was a great flood of a lot of land area. Human evolution seems to have occurred during this ice age period when the majority of the world was cooler than in previous times (this could be a concern if global warming is a reality).

There was a small ice age during 1500 – 1850 – this is known as the “Little Ice Age”.

HISTORY OF THE CHAKRA SYSTEM

Posted on by Holistichealthcarewx

(Hon), RGN, Reiki Master (RGMT), M.H.I.T: Master Acupressure, Practitioner of Reflexology, Aromatherapy, Deep Tissue/Myo-fascia Massages, Infrared Treatments, Vibrational Sound and Colour Therapist, Tissue Salt Advisor, Pendulum Healing Dowser, Chakra Practitioner , Tao Cosmic Healing Practitioner, Practitioner of Plant and Herb Medicine and Nurse.

Now that the chakras have become New Age parlance, there are many interpretations of their meaning and function being branded about. While this popularity is making the chakras a household word, it is also spreading a lot of confusing, confliction, and often erroneous information. It is important to realize the chakras come from an ancient tradition, which many New Age teachers have barely explored. Here is a brief summary of the development of the chakras historically.

The Vedas are the oldest written tradition in India, (1,500 – 500 B.C.) recorded from oral tradition by upper caste Brahmins, who may have been descended from the Aryan stock which entered India from the north. The original meaning of the word chakra as “wheel” refers to the chariot wheels of the rulers, called cakravartins. (The correct spelling is cakra, though pronounced with a ch as in church.) The word was also a metaphor for the sun, which “traverses the world like the triumphant chariot of a cakravartin and denotes the eternal wheel of time called the kalacakra which represents celestial order and balance.

The birth of a cakravartin was said to herald a New Age, and they were described as preceded by a golden disk of light, much like the halo of Christ, only this spinning disk was seen in front of them (perhaps their powerful third chakras). It is also said that the god Vishnu descended to Earth, having in his four arms a cakra, a lotus flower, a club, and a conch shell. (This may have referred to a cakra as a discus-like weapon.)

There is some mention of the chakras as psychic centers of consciousness in the Yoga Upanishads (circa 600B.C.) and later in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali (circa 200 B.C.). Most interpretations of Patanjali read a dualism between purusha (pure consciousness) and prakriti (the prima materia of the world), implying that the goal of yoga was to rise above nature for the realization of pure consciousness, free of the fluctuations of the mind and emotions. Yet the word yoga means union or yoke, so this realization of consciousness must ultimately reintegrate with nature for a higher synthesis.

The Chakra System and Kundalini yoga arose within the Tantric tradition, during the second half of the first millennium, common era. The word Tantra means tool (tra) for stretching (tan) and can be thought of as a loom in which the fabric of nature is woven from the union of opposites. In the West, Tantra is thought of primarily as a sexual tradition, yet sacred sexuality is only a small part of a broad weaving of philosophy which includes many practices of yoga, worship of deities, especially the Hindu goddesses, and integration of the many polaric forces in the universe.

The main text about Chakras that has come to us in the West, is a translation by the Englishman, Arthur Avalon, in his book The Serpent Power published in 1919. These texts: the Sat-Cakra-Nirupana, written by an Indian pundit in 1577, and the Padaka-Pancaka, written in the 10th century, contain descriptions of the centers and related practices. There is also another 10th century text, called the Gorakshashatakam, which gives instructions for meditating on the Chakras. These texts form the basis of our understanding of Chakra theory and Kundalini yoga today.

In these traditions, there are seven basic chakras, and they all exist within the subtle body, overlaying the physical body. Through modern physiology we can see that these seven Chakras correspond exactly to the seven main nerve ganglia which emanate from the spinal column. There are minor Chakras mentioned in the ancient texts, the Soma Chakra, located just above the third eye, and the Anandakanda lotus, which contains the Celestial Wishing Tree (Kalpataru) of the Heart Chakra, and other texts mention minor sub-levels to the major Chakras.

THE TREE OF LIFE

Leaves and branches

Inside the human body are millions and millions of tiny whirling vital life forces concentrated into centres called Chakras. Chakra means wheel in Sanskrit because these energies spin at these points rotating clockwise at a certain frequency. The Chakra is a subtle energy centre that normally cannot be perceived. The activity resembles a galaxy of planets, each spinning on its axis at points along the spinal cord. Each Chakra is designed to supervise and maintain the perfect operation of the bodily systems under its control. This purification is done by spinning in pure or positive vibrations and spinning out impure or negative ones.

An understanding of what each Chakra attracts and what can disturb it is important for our wellbeing. Each thought and action influence the sensitiveness and performance of these centres. Immediately after Self-Realization these Chakras are activated and initially begin the slow process of clearing the gross negativity accumulated by years of neglect or self-destructive activities like drugs, drinking, violence, anger, hatred, fanaticism, sexual deviation and so on. The benefits are almost immediate; small anxieties decrease and some joy and objectivity begins to manifest, and the blocked Chakras begin to rotate properly again.

The human being has seven major Chakras and these correspond to the autonomic nerve plexuses. Thus:

The Mooladhara Chakra corresponds to the pelvic plexus.
The Swadhisthan Chakra corresponds to the aortic plexus.
The Nabhi Chakra corresponds to the coeliac plexus.
The Anahath Chakra corresponds to the cardiac plexus.
The Vishuddhi Chakra corresponds to the cervical plexus.
The Agnya Chakra corresponds to the optic chiasma.
The Sahasrara Chakra expresses at the limbic area.

Furthermore, the petals of each Chakra correspond to the sub plexuses of the autonomic system. For example the classically described six petals of the Swadhisthan Chakra corresponds to the spermatic, left colic, sigmoid, superior haemorrhoidal, inferior mesenteric and hypogastric sub plexuses of the aortic plexus. The Chakra directs the particular type of energy controlling the autonomic nerve plexus and also adjacent endocrine and other organs.

By a series of subtle connections called ‘Nadis‘ in Yogic terminology each Chakra is connected to and brings its influence to bear on the whole body. For example the Nabhi Chakra controls the entire lymphatic system. In classical texts there are said to be three hundred and fifty millions of these Nadis. Very importantly, each Chakra is connected to a part of the hand as indicated in the subtle system diagram. Once the state of Yoga is achieved, the hands become sensitive to the state of the Chakras, and with practice this is easily interpreted.

The Chakras also influence and reflect our mental and emotional life. For example, the Swadhisthan Chakra controls a person’s creativity and those who work hard — artists and other creative people — it may become weak. The right Anahath Chakra (there are three parts of the Anahath Chakra: right, center and left) reflects the relationship of fatherhood, either with the person’s own father or his own children. Sufferers from anorexia nervosa, for example, invariably have a problem with this centre. There are more complex scenarios for serious problems where two or more Chakras are inter-related and affected, but we need not worry for eventually the Kundalini is able to set the entire subtle system working at optimum levels.

Thus the state of the Chakras at a subtle level reflects and influences a person’s physical, mental and emotional welfare. This is a dynamic relationship and so action at a subtle level on the Chakra can improve and (very importantly) integrate all these aspects. This is why, in a nutshell, people who achieve and consolidate their Yoga invariably find that their physical, emotional and other problems improve.

According to Hinduism Today the chakras system (portals of perception) is “not a topic you will ever learn in school, nor is it likely to be part of a soul-searching confabulation around the office coffee machine. Yet the chakras are of profound importance to those seriously exploring the nature of consciousness — their own spiritual quest, a friend’s uncommon perceptions or the expanding mind of an entire human race. To make up for the deficit, and to make this highly esoteric subject approachable for those not having the time to learn Sanskrit or trek to a lofty Himalayan cave, the Hinduism Today staff has assembled in the next four pages the simplified essentials of these mysterious centers within you.

The modern Hindu renaissance figure Swami Vivekananda was also a great yogi. One day at 1,000 Island Park, USA, outside a summer cottage, buttoned up in a quaint trench coat, he shared some of India’s deepest mysticism with a small group of Western ladies: “The sun and moon currents [the pingala and ida] bring energy to all parts of the body. While meditating at the Baranagore Math, I saw the nerves, ida and pingala. The surplus energy is stored at certain points, plexuses, along the spinal column commonly known as nerve centers. A third, the sushumna, is a very fine, very brilliant thread, a living passage through the spinal cord, through which we have to make the kundalini rise. The yogi is able not only to feel them but actually see them.”

Chakras, or “plexuses of consciousness,” form the major nerve ganglia of an extraordinary circuitry of nadis, energy channels that link together our animal body with our subtler bodies and their higher functions such as intelligence and love. It is because of these chakras and nadis that our five koshas,” sheaths”— function so smoothly and integrally as a one organism and awareness can move through all bodies, transiting from physical to emotional, to intuition to spiritual, instantaneously. In computer language, these chakras could be considered cosmic network hubs and the nadis as multi-gigabyte-per-second optical fibre wiring. Except, this wiring extends inside and outside the computer.

Our five “sheaths,” koshas -physical, vital/pranic, emotional/mental, intuitive/ cognitive and superconscious-are not disjointed, but beautifully and inextricably interlocked like layers of an onion. Each one is encased by the next subtler as they function together in daily consciousness. For example, when we feel the embarrassing hot flush of anger or riveting cool current of the intellect, we are aware in the astral body, not the physical body. When a wave of boundless love surges from within, we are accessing the intuitive and soul sheaths.

Hindu, Chinese Taoist and Tibetan Buddhist scriptures refer to an electrical human infrastructure of 72,000 sukshma prana nadis or “subtle channels of vital force.” The Shiva Samhita lists fourteen major currents. Of these, three are the super information highways-ida, pingala and sushumna — running interwoven around and within, respectively, the spinal cord. Where the nadis most intensely converge, yogis have pinpointed the chakras — 88,000 according to the most extensive yogic explorations.

The most important are the seven above the base of the spine-muladhara, svadishthana, manipura, anahata, vishuddha, ajna and sahasrara-and seven below that come into power in the Kali Yuga-atala, vitala, sutala, talatala, rasatala, mahatala and patala. As giant electrical transformers govern and regulate the flow and dispersion of power through a community, so do these whirlpools of light receive, filter, focus and funnel the vital life force, prana, that flows through us from the Source of Life.

Though of gross form, the body maintains a connection to each of the chakras through nerve ganglia along the spinal cord and in the cranium. But unlike these physical nerves, which are measured in millimeters, the subtle nerve and the chakras are measured by vibration, similar to AM, FM, and short-wave radio frequencies. Although regionalized to various parts of each sheath, or body, the chakras are more accurately regions of mind power-vast fields of collective, related, and interrelated thought realms, like vast cities, or energy fields, or like portals of consciousness… .

Knowledge of the chakras so exhaustively recorded by India’s yogis, permeates Hindu culture, its dance tradition and its sacred architecture. The Hindu temple is segmented to mirror the human body’s seven chakra design. Beyond India, this knowledge was inspirational to the flowering of tantric Tibetan Buddhism. In Tibet, Mani Padma “jewelled lotus,” is the name of the Manipura chakra enshrined in the mantra Om Mani Padme Hum. Buddha called his first sermon Dhammachakkappavattana Sutta. Chakka is the Pali word for chakra. “Turning the Wheel of Truth” can also be interpreted as spinning the higher chakras.

Chakra/nadi knowledge has surfaced in every society that nurtured a mystical tradition. “The chakra unmistakably appears in the religious art of the three Americas,” notes metaphysical scholar Manley P. Hall. The Mayan God Quetzalcoatl is often portrayed with a plumage around his head to represent the emanating rays of the sahasrara. In Polynesia, the Hawaiians constructed seven temples on the island of Kauai representing each of the chakras along a trail called Ku-a-moo,” spine of the dragon,” (sushumna nadi) from the ocean to a central volcanic peak. Mystical Sikh, Sufi and Christian sects each possess chakra-nadi teachings. The Chinese acupuncture system is completely based on this knowledge. By releasing obstructions in the flow of chi, or vital prana, that runs through the nadis, illness conditions are treated and averted.

Literature on chakras, our inner bodies and their make-up continues to proliferate in a Hindu context and in other cultural and ideological frameworks. The self-healing movement has logged onto chakra knowledge, and more and more mainstream allopathic medical practitioners are finding themselves referring to “that other nervous system.” As cognizance of the chakras grows, not only will people better comprehend their own mental/emotional orientation and be inspired by higher portals of perception, but also finally fathom how someone could kill another, or how a soul could forgive and still love a murderer.

Before exploring the intricacies of the chakras in our colour poster of the month, we offer this engaging observation by the German linguist and Indologist Max Muller [1823-1900]: “But if it seems strange to you that the old Indian philosophers should have known more about the soul than Greeks or medieval or modern philosophers, let us remember that however much the telescopes for observing the stars of heaven have been improved, the observatories of the soul have remained much the same. These days the focus is often on the more down-to-earth benefits of Yoga, including improved physical fitness, stress control, mental clarity, greater self-understanding and general well-being. Not many yoga practitioners are aware that there is a substantial difference between Yoga (Union with the Divine) and the many schools that teach watered down versions, especially in the West.



Well, I hope you enjoyed this bit of history. If you have followed my blogs, you will have guessed by now, Chakras are my passion. Since I was 12-15 years old, I have had a fascination with them, particularly as a child I could see them. I actually thought, everybody could see them …. like others can see Auras.
I am still studying them. Always finding more ancient mind blowing information sometimes.
Whenever I have clients for Energy Healing or Massage Therapies, I always access their Chakras. This helps me “diagnose” what is “wrong” with this person on my couch.

Warm Wishes, I remain until my next blog,

Yours Truly,

25th of December. What is the significance?

Most Christians understand the significance of this date: 25th December of any year.

Disclaimer: To begin with, before I receive rude remarks, I just want to point out from a Metaphysical aspect,  Astrological facts and from a Religious perspective. The last thing I want to do here, is to denounce Christmas or Jesus, Yeshua Ben Joseph; for he did exist, but perhaps not in a time, the Bible wants us to believe.

Did you know?
Pope Julius I declared 25th December as the birthday of the Lord Jesus Christ around 350AD.

Most Christians today tend to agree with the idea that Jesus was not necessarily born on December 25th, AD1.
Joseph Fitz Myer, a Professor of emeritus bible studies, stated that “…though the year of Jesus’ birth is not recorded with certainty, his birth did not occur in AD1…” as generally believed.
In other statements for example, the Deaschen, believed to be written in 243AD, puts Jesus’s birthday on March 28th. Bishop Clement of Alexandria ca 215  AD, decided on November 18th. Fitz Myer himself chose September 11th, based on historical records.

But it was Pope Julius I who had declared, around 350 AD, the 25th December as Jesus’s birthday. He saw the date coincided with the winter solstice and the Jewish Hannukah, which were already times of celebration, so let the festivities be enhanced during this period.

Besides, cattle had been slaughtered and wine and beer had fermented during the winter, so everyone was ready to consume fresh produce in abundance.

Having converted many Pagans, the Universal Church then began to change certain pagan festivals, like the brutal Saturnalia, which was part of the Pagan Winter Solstice Festivals, into Christian “Holy Days” = Holidays. The Church also promised the converted Pagans that they could continue to celebrate their festivals, with the intentions of eventually replacing them with Christian versions. And even though there was nothing Christian about these “End-of Years”, weeklong festivals, the Church named the final day of festivities, which is 25th December, “Christ-Mass” day.

The first recorded celebration of Christmas took place in 336 AD under the reign of the Roman Emperor Constantine, who had slowly converted to Christianity, with Pope Julius making it official around 350.

In 529, Christmas Day was declared an official holiday. https://thenewdaily.com.au/religion/2017/12/14/12-days-of-christmas-day-three/

Let’s begin with Paganism.

How old is the pagan religion? – Quora

Paganism is a broad term for any religion not centred on the Bible – it includes Buddhism and Hinduism, both of which are exceedingly main religions. And since chimps have been observed displaying a basic form of ritual behaviour, paganism probably goes back well before anything we would clearly recognise as human.

Pagan religion | History, Types, beliefs, worship &More

What is modern-day Pagan religion? Pagan religion today grew from the new outlooks of the Renaissance period (1500) and the Reformation (the 1600s), through the revival of Druidry and folk custom in Europe, the witch-hunts of the 19th Century, and the explosion of interest in world religions in the sixties and seventies.

Often asked: Which Religion Is Older Pagan Or Christianity?

Paganism has grown in popularity greatly during the last hundred years. When did pagan religion start? Paganism (from classical Latin pāgānus “rural”, “rustic”, later “civilian”) is a term first used in the fourth century by early Christians for people in the Roman Empire who practiced polytheism or ethnic religions other than Judaism.

The true meaning of Paganism | Ancient Origins

The word “paganism” has come to refer to various pre-Christian religions belonging to a number of ancient cultures—those from Greece, Rome, Egypt, Scandinavia, and so on. It has come to also represent, in some circles, the modern ideology of Wicca and the followers of revived versions of the old practices.

Is paganism older than Christianity? – Quora

Is paganism older than Christianity? Yes. Pagan practices are much, much older than the comparatively recent upstart Christianity. The oldest pagan stone circle yet found was dated at approximately 2,030,000 years BCE. The pagans who built it were hominoids, not even human yet. Paganism was an important part of human evolution.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

So, now that we grasp the idea that it was the Church, who decided that the Ancients are wrong, and they are right, we now look at the evidence, that Yeshua Ben Joseph, aka Jesus, was actually born on September 11th, 3 BC (Before Christ).

3 BC? How is this possible? This would mean our Calendars are wrong, well at least the years. So we are already looking at the end of 2025 and moving in to 2026. How is that for fast moving time since lockdowns?

Remember back then, they only had Stars in the sky for their compass. This was their way to orientate, their way to understand foreboding/prophecies, reading what the Universe was telling us. Today our Universe seems to be a Search Engine.

But thanks to this search engine, we can locate things from way back when (providing someone done the research….) but also with the tools of Apps we can “turn back the clock” in Astrology terms and see what the stars’ positions were, let’s say, on September 11, 3 BC.

Why this date? In the Book of Revelations 12:1-2 it reads the following:
Revelation 12:1-2
1 And a great sign was seen in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, 2 and upon her head a crown of twelve stars, and she being with child screamed, travailing in birth, and agonised to be delivered.

Revelation 12:5
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who “will rule all the nations with an iron sceptre.” And her child was snatched up to God, and to his throne.

On the 11th September 3 BC (Day 1 Month 7 – Tishri) God used the constellation Virgo to give us a sign in the heavens:

That evening, from Bethlehem, as the constellation of Virgo became visible just above the horizon towards the west, it appeared as if sun set had ‘cloaked’ Virgo’s body. The crescent moon was positioned right under her feet, whereas the day before, and after, the moon was not under her feet. Also, above Virgo’s head are nine stars that form the constellation of Leo, which represents the Lion of the tribe of Judah who is Jesus. That night however Mercury, Venus and Jupiter were also in Leo, making a total of twelve stars above Virgo’s head. Planets were considered as stars in ancient days, and the word planet literally means wondering star. The book of Revelation describes a great sign in the Heavens, with the sun, moon, and stars, and describes that the child being born was Jesus.

Furthermore, it is interesting to learn that:
The prophet Isaiah also made a prophetic allusion to this sign over 700 years before.

Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the LORD Himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive, and give birth to a son, and will call him Emmanuel.

The best time to have witnessed this momentary display was between 5:53 p.m. and 6:35 p.m. that evening, and Jesus was born at about 6:12 p.m. It’s possible to be confident that this was the time of Jesus’ birth because it was also at this precise time that the brightest star in Virgo, called Spica, which represents an ear of corn being held in Virgo’s left hand, appeared to ‘touch’ the horizon, or ‘alight to the earth.’ The name of this star in Hebrew is Tsemech which means ‘branch,’ and is the subject of prophecy by Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Zechariah. Spica is actually Latin for ‘ear of corn’ or ‘a kernel of wheat’, and Jesus Himself alluded to this sign:

John 12:23-24
23 And Jesus responded to them, “The hour is come that the Son of Man should be magnified.
24 Truly, truly I say to you, unless a kernel of wheat alights to the earth and dies, it remains a single seed. But if it dies, it bears fruit.”

Note to self: there are only some 3,761 “years” difference in the calculations of years:
Today is 28th day of the Month of December in the Gregorian calendar year 2022. Same date in the Hebrew calendar looks like this: 4th day of the month of Tevet in the year 5783.

It is also note worthy that the Hebrew calendar only has a 355 day cycle.

èso by all accounts, by whose calendar did we determine what happened when, when we read the Bible? Especially the Old Testament!?!

The Hebrew Calendar

The Hebrew Calendar, also called the Jewish Calendar, is a type of Lunisolar Calendar (The Lunisolar Calendar combines the Lunar and Solar Calendar to form another method of timekeeping.)  based on the cycle of the earth around the sun (yearly) and the moon around the earth (monthly).

The Hebrew months vary between 29 and 30 days as follows:

Tishrei (30 days) (תשרי) – between September to October.

Jeshván (29 or 30 days) (חשוון, also called Marjeshván – מרחשוון) – October to November

Kislev (30 or 29 days) (כסלו) – November to December

Tevet (29 days) (טבת) – December to January

Shevat (30 days) (שבט) – January to February

Adar (29 days) (אדר) – February to March

Nisán (30 days) (ניסן) – March to April

Iyar (29 days) (אייר) – April to May

Siván (30 days) (סיוון) – May to June

Tamuz (29 days) (תמוז) – June to July

Av (30 days) (אב) – July to August

Elul (29 days) (אלול) – August to September

Hmmm, it seems being sick this Festive Season has given me way too much time on my hands, with all that thinking I have been doing.
I sincerely hope, I haven’t offended anyone. I have not intended to have a go at Belief systems, nor disputing the existence of Christ, the Lord’s earthly self. I merely had been pondering on the idea, why we celebrate Jesus’ birthday on 25th December, when it also clear that December was not his birth month.
No worries, I’m back to work soon enough and then, will be distracted again for a while 😉.

Thank you for taking the time reading this. I wish you a magical, prosperous, and healthy 2023 or 2026 or which ever Year you live in 😊.

The Ordering of Paradise by Della Divina Commedia (Of the Divine Comedy) or How to raise your lower frequencies.

Quick translation of this old Michelangelo Caetani drawing.

Starting from the bottom all in Italian:

Gerusalemma = Jerusalem

Inferno = Hell

Selva Oscura = Wild Forrest

Emisperio Della Terra = hemisphere of the land

punto, al quale si traggon b’ con parte i pesi = point, to which which b’ with the weights are drawn

Emisoerio Dell’ Acqua = hemisphere of the water

Purgatorio = Purgatory

Paradiso Terrestre = Paradise on Earth

  1. Cielo Della Luna = Sky of the moon.
  2. Cielo Di Mercurio = Sky of Mercury.
  3. Cielo Di Venere = Sky of Venus.
  4. Cielo del Sole = Sky of the Sun.
  5. Cielo Di Marte = Sky of Mars.
  6. Cielo Di Give = Sky of Jupiter.
  7. Cielo Di Saturno = Sky of Saturn.
  8. Cielo Stellato Zodiaco = Sky of the Constellations. Zodiac.
  9. Cielo Cristallino. Primo Mobile = Crystal clear sky. First mobile.
  10. Cielo Quieto   Empireo Paradiso = Quite sky.  Empyrean Paradise.

Figura Universale Della Devina Commedia – Universal Figure of the Divine Comedy

So that is the picture translated. Now, before anyone goes on about Flat earth vs Spheric earth, just pause to remember, not even Michelangelo was able to paint in 3D on a flat sheet of paper.

Today is 27th December 2022. The whole family is down with the flu. Yes flu, not covid. Some things have been around before 2020, and the flu is one of them. So, I had nothing better to be doing, but to ponder on the spirituality and metaphysical part of “all things to do with Christmas”, which includes Jerusalem. So I went down a “rabbit-hole”.

I googled “Jerusalem” and I got:

  1. The name means “city of peace.” Jerusalem is often called Zion; Mount Zion is the hill on which the fortress of the city was built.…

Jerusalem Definition & Meaning | Dictionary.com

During the Canaanite period (14th century BCE), Jerusalem was named as Urusalim on ancient Egyptian tablets, probably meaning “City of Shalem” …..

  • Why is it called Jerusalem? Hebrew Bible and Jewish sources Jerusalem – Wikipedia
    According to a Midrash, the name is a combination of two names united by God, Yireh (“the abiding place”, the name given by Abraham to the place where he planned to sacrifice his son) and Shalem (“Place of Peace“, the name given by high priest Shem).

In the Old Testament, Shalem is the name of a city ruled by Melchizedek. Some experts believe that the biblical city of Shalem is today’s Jerusalem (Jeru-shalem), the “City of Peace.”

The Place of Peace … Paradise?

Hmmm, City of Shalem … ??? City of Shambhala? Naahhhh. Not possible, or is it? So I continued to do research. I google: “City of Shalem” and I get:



Salem (Bible) – Wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Sa…

Salem is an ancient Middle Eastern town mentioned in the Bible. Salem is referenced in the … Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan…

Wait, SALEM??? Okay. So what can I find with Salem and connection to Jerusalem or Shamballa?

So I looked up Shamballa, Shambala, Shambhala… Shambhala (pronounced sham-bah-lah, sometimes spelled “Shambala” and “Shamballa”) is a mythical Buddhist kingdom that is said to exist somewhere between the Himalaya Mountains and the Gobi Desert. In Shambhala, all of the citizens have achieved enlightenment, so it is the embodiment of Tibetan Buddhist perfection. That is the reason for one of its other names: The Pure Land. It is also known as Olmolungring, Shangri-La, Paradise, and Eden.

At first it may appear somewhat confusing to associate Shambhala with Christianity. Shambhala is usually associated with Eastern thought and religion, such as Tibetan Buddhism. Public knowledge of Shambhala in Western society really began with the Theosophical Society, founded in 1875.

According to theosophical literature, Shambhala was originally a small colony of Atlantean adepts in eastern Asia who had survived the cataclysmic submergence of the ancient continent. This sanctuary-colony was established by a high initiate known in the East as “Manu.” These primordial survivors gathered on a sacred island in a prehistoric sea now occupied by the Gobi Desert: “An island, where now the Gobi Desert lies, was inhabited by the last remnant of the race that preceded ours; a handful of Adepts―the “Sons of God,” now referred to as Brahman Pitris … This sea existed until the last great glacial period, when a local cataclysm, which swept the waters south and west, formed the present great desolate desert …” (“Theosophy,” Vol. 42, No. 3, January, 1954). ….Under the direction and influence of Christ-Jesus, the lotus-centre of Shambhala that once invisibly hovered ‘beyond the Himalayas,’ is now etherically situated above the geographical city of Jerusalem. This new sacred heart-centre of Shambhala is known esoterically as the “New Jerusalem.” https://www.heartofshambhala.com/?page_id=41

“The growth of the New Jerusalem has been ongoing since the Mystery of Golgotha. When the human being has entirely fulfilled his time on earth he will have reached the stage in which he not only weaves the heavenly substance into his own body through his senses, but in which he extends the heavenly substance through what we call spiritual knowledge and art into what will be the external city. The Old Jerusalem was built from below upwards; the New Jerusalem will be built in all reality from above downwards”. ~From The Book of Revelation, by Rudolf Steiner, Lecture 9, Dornach, 13 September 1924 https://reverseritual.com/shamballathe-new-jerusalem/

Are Salem and Jerusalem the same?

The name refers to the royal city of Melchizedek and is traditionally identified with Jerusalem. It is also mentioned in Hebrews 7.
Salem (Bible) – Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salem_(Bible)



That the name Salem refers to Jerusalem is evidenced by Psalm 76:2 which uses “Salem” as a parallel for “Zion”, the citadel of Jerusalem. The same identification is made by Josephus and the Aramaic translations of the Bible. Names of Jerusalem – Wikipedia

Salem is old Jerusalem

Shambala/Shamballa/Shambhala in New Jerusalem

I cannot find any direct connection between Salem and Shamballa, only hints. But as both are linked to Jerusalem in some shape or form, I conclude that one is the physical past and the other still an etherical future.
I left the links here for you to click on and read yourself.

I also believe that there is a far greater meaning behind all of this. Microcosm and Macrocosm and Above so Below and on a spiritual level, all that ends, is recycled, and encouraged to regrow with more wisdom and new knowledge gained. We are the living organisms on earth, which is a living organism in our solar system, which is a living organism in our Milky Way Galaxy, which is a living organism in the universe, which is a living organism in the … ? But staying on earth: a seed is sown. First it grows roots, to be firmly anchored into the rich soil Gaia has to offer. Now the stem grows followed by branches, flowers, and fruit. The fruit carries the seeds for the next generation of tree/plant to be seeded. So in my view, Salem is the mother tree and Shamballa, it’s off-spring. Gaia is transitioning and us with her.

Paradise lives in the Seed with all of it’s Divine Glory, ready to “show herself off” to the world. And many still have not “got it”.
In order to be like that Tree of Life, we must raise our lower frequencies. To lift out of the dark (roots) into the light (tree crown). When we have reach the Light, there will be another Darkness lurking below us. Once aware, start raising it to the Light.
We know that trees are interconnected with one another, something us humans are still to master. Globally. If we did, the current crises we hear about, read about, witness and taking in their refugees…… would not exist. The last time humanity came close to reaching this Oneness, was 9-11! Think about that for a moment.

Ah well….. such is Life.

Did you know that the oldest Language is circa. 4700 years old and is said to be Egyptian.

Did you know that the Bible thinks, Earth is only 6000 years old?

Did you know that In cosmology, the seven heavens refer to seven levels or divisions of the Heavens (Heaven). The concept, also found in the ancient Mesopotamian religions, can be found in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; a similar concept is also found in some other religions such as Hinduism. Some of these traditions, including Jainism, also have a concept of seven earths or seven underworlds both with the metaphysical realms of deities and with observed celestial bodies such as the classical planets and fixed stars.

To each of the seven heavens corresponds one of the seven classical planets known in antiquity. Ancient observers noticed that these heavenly objects (the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) moved at different paces in the sky both from each other and from the fixed stars beyond them.

Noticed how our Moon falls under a category of being a planet? I believe this happened when Pluto was removed. 😉

Seven Heavens. Seven heavenly objects. Seven main chakras.

Much to think about and I shall leave this at that.

Good Night, God bless. May 2023 bring you all you wish for.

A metaphysical conversation between friends on Messenger chat:
Oh, and by the way: MDP = Mind Dowsing Protocol.

Hi Catherine and Merry Christmas to you, Paul, and your puppy dogs!! I heard from Derek and wanted to share with you what he’s doing.


JD: From Derek: “I learned from Raymon Grace that he had successfully used some of the body’s approximately 95% of unused DNA (Doctors term junk DNA) to rebuild his knee and that his knee was now functioning better than it was 30 years ago. Well, I used my dowsing to ask if I could use this unused DNA in my Body to rebuild any of my Body components that needed rebuilding and got a YES. So I am now using 12 MDPs (long term) to rebuild Knees, Hips, Spinal Column, Shoulders, Thalamus, Hypothalamus, Kidneys, and Tooth 12 and am feeling 40% improvements which is great. Another truly great gift I have been blessed with is that I now use Master Jesus daily for all Intents that I normally would have used an MDP for and there is no limit for Master Jesus also every Intent Master Jesus does for me runs simultaneously and I am so truly grateful for this gift.”

I asked him how he is using Master Jesus in place of the MDP.

From Derek: “… just did this now as I had a slight jelly legs sensation when walking. “My intent is that Master Jesus will please banish the spirit of all diseases causing jelly legs sensation when walking, when that’s done deactivate the life force of the diseases, when that’s done scramble the frequency of the diseases, when that’s done scramble the frequency of any side effects of the diseases including jelly legs sensation when walking, all energy work to be carried out in all of my subtle bodies, my physical body, and in all levels of my existence when that’s done transmute all energies into the most appropriate beneficial frequencies for me not to suffer with jelly legs sensation when walking ever again and thank you, heavenly father, Master Jesus, and the blood of Jesus that I don’t suffer with this ever again this I command in your name Amen, Amen, Amen.”

I thought this was interesting. I also was reminded from Raymon to clear all irritants, allergens, and to talk to the mast cells. He, Raymon, says the Mast Cells are the communicators of the body and carry trauma and illness energy to the surface to be removed. He says to start by asking them if they are involved, then check to see if they are carrying energy that needs to be cleared. Raymon also says to learn to have this dialogue with the body and it will tell you what it is trying to resolve. He also says to dowse on what was happening in the couple of years before the symptoms started, that is often what needs to be released/transmuted. I get pneumonia every year, I think my symptoms for pneumonia would have started when I was 3 or 4, that’s a long time ago. LOL!

Me: May I ask a stupid question? MDP and the protocols….. to me, in effect, he is doing the same just replacing the word MDP for Master Jesus. The fact that Jesus is not a son of God, but an Energy form, a Soul, that mastered 3D density, nobody seems to talk about. But that’s neither here nor there. To me, Derek replaced MDP for Master Jesus whose energy is equal to cosmic abundance. So yeah, makes sense to ask upon him. Like the Master Archangels. I call upon him Monday to Friday. I ask him to protect our native, innate, messenger RNA from artificial intelligence, interfering mRNA, and so protecting our RNA and DNA. Reinforcing our body shields and body armour to protect and shield us from harmful 5G Millimeter microwaves and harmful sonic and subsonic frequencies. I ask him to awaken those dormant DNA strands that serve us best now. But I have never asked Jesus to heal me. Interesting

JD: Not stupid at all as I was thinking the same thing. I call on and ask the AAs for everything especially getting through to some of the animals. AA Michael & Metatron, morning, and night for protecting my property, etc. Derek just got out of the hospital and asked me to check and see if there was anything else to work on that he had missed. I wondered why he hadn’t asked Master Jesus. … I thought energy equal to cosmic abundance was AA Ariel.

I use AA Michael and Metatron for most of what you’re saying. I use AA Fhleyai and Haniel for help with the animals, AA Raphael for help with healing.

Now, “The fact that Jesus is not a son of God, but an Energy form, a Soul, that mastered 3D density nobody seems to talk about” I must be way behind, didn’t know this.

Me: All major arcana in the AA kingdom are all equal energy to cosmos.

JD: Got it, was just reading that.

Me: Well… Jesus… What does the bible tell us about Jesus?

JD: That he’s Marie’s boy child … Simply put that he is the son of God, but can do anything.

Me: Ok. Who or what is God?

JD: The creator of all things

Me: The creator of ALL things….. yes. But just on this planet?

JD: I’m stuck in the Catholic rut today … No everywhere …

Me: … nothing to do with being religious …

JD: I know. you’re asking my brain to work.

Me: That’s ok too lol … So God is everything and everywhere!

JD: correct!

Me: … from solid, to liquid, to gas, to crystalline, to dark matter, to light matter, he is shadow, he is light, he is energy on every level of thought and existence. Yes?

JD: Agree

Me: So who is Jesus?

JD: AAAHH … he is energy and thought on every existence … That makes sense!

Me: Like you and I are

JD: Yes

Me: Macro- and Microcosm

JD: … yes, wow!

Me: So, using a tool called pendulum, to work with tangible energy, is one thing. Using your MIND, is quite another. This, I feel, by definition, should be called Quantum Energy.

JD: Agree.

Me: And on the way to work I had this very topic of conversation with myself, and I had forgotten I had until now.

JD: Synchronicity. I’m here to keep you on your toes ….

Me: … and me your brain working hahaha

Me: So with this “knew” understanding, re-read Derek’s note to you

JD: okay

Me: To ask Jesus to reactivate your dormant DNA….. ask yourself to do this. You are Jesus. You are God. The Universe is within you … But … If your Chakras are banjaxed, you are snookered!

JD: what does banjaxed mean?

JD: The Hara chakra needs to be cleared on all levels of existence or it isn’t cleared, then does this apply to all chakras. It seems like it would.

Me: Only if your chakras are open. Banjaxed – Irish slang for “not working” … So I came to the conclusion this morning … let me see if I can recall my order and thinking …

Me: I asked myself: What is quantum healing?

Me: My reply was: The Quantumness in a Being, is the ability to sense, feel, hone in, and act upon …

JD: Quantum healing would be on all levels of existence current, this life past, past life and generations, all lifetimes and continuums.

Me: You are thinking tooooooooo big. Think small. Think Microcosm.
JD: Okay … I like small


Me: What is definition of having a Gut Feeling?
JD: intuition!
Me: Yes! Very good.
JD: thank you

Me: So how do we intuitively feel? How do we intuitively see?
JD: it hits us and we just know it
Me: … it just hits us…….. sometimes like a ton of bricks lol … Ok.
Me: Gut feeling , your gut belongs to which chakra?
JD: sacral
Me: Parts of it, yes, but majority is in the 3rd Dantien, your solar plexus
JD: that’s right

Me: If your SP is malfunctioning, how do you perceive gut feeling/intuition?

JD: I don’t know

Me: Ok. How do you know if you like or dislike a person you meet for the 1st time?
JD: you just know … your gut is screaming it

Me: Emotion of Liking or dislike originates from where?
JD: the hara chakra

Me: When does your heart skip a beat? Think Emotions. Emotion is heart chakra driven.

Me: To vocalise your “findings” you need to have a functional throat chakra.

JD: Emotion is heart chakra driven … yes you are right.

Me: Let’s start back at the beginning. Gut feelings are the SP. Emotions are the Heart Chakra. Vocalising is the Throat. If those 3 are all open and receiving and sending info like a CB radio, it still requires to be connected to something somehow, yes?

JD: yes

Me: In order to SEE, our 3rd needs to be open. In order to be grounded, our root chakra needs to be firmly connected to the crystalline core of Gaia via the Earth Chakra. In order to be connected to Divinity, our Crown chakra needs to be connected to the Universe via the Soul Star and Stella Gateway Chakras

JD: yes

Me: Now, we are like a battery, just got slotted into a remote control. We are now receiving and transmitting and sending energy in both directions. As long as ALL chakras are open, energy can pass through unhindered. Energy also exchanges in both directions.

JD: agree

Me: So, the Universe is abundant. So is Gaia. So who is Jesus and who is God? Where does the cosmos reside? What is universe and what is Quantum? I am not sure we have the words yet to define the last question, but it is us.

JD: That’s what I was going to say, it is us all in us.

Me: All within us. We just have not used the full capacity of our brains. Less than 10% we use

JD: agree

Me: So what exactly is it that Derek is doing when he uses MDP or Master Jesus?

JD: He’s using himself without realizing it!

Me: BINGO!

JD: Wow

Me: Anyways, the power is within us all. We can activate ourselves!

Ask yourself this question:
Let’s say your car’s petrol tank can hold 100L of Petrol/Gas or Diesel. Would you only fill it 10%? How often would you have to go to refil that 10%?
If your Lithium Battery would only charge 10%, would you set off to drive that car?

No! But that is exactly what we are doing.

Thank you for taking time reading this.

The “Quantumness” of Yeshua Ben Josef or the Three Men baring Wise Gifts

Posted on by Holistichealthcarewx

Co-Founder of Aumvedas Academy and Teacher. Owner of Holistic Health Care Wexford. Author of Reiki Grandmaster Series Attunements numbers 19&20.

Today I wish to discuss with you, what in my opinion, the Star of Bethlehem was and why it lingered for so long over the stable. Plus the true meaning behind those Gifts.

My brain functions at it’s best, it seems, early in the morning, behind the steering-wheel of my car, driving to work. So that’s Mondays to Fridays. Weekends I switch off…. Giggle.

So yesterday morning I gave Christmas some thought. I thought about them Three Wise Men, arriving from three directions, only to arrive in the fourth.

The Star of Bethlehem. Was it really a comet? Or could it have been something entirely different?

For years I have been referring to Jesus as Yeshua Ben Joseph. I do remember once, many, many, many years ago, having read this name and all I remembered that it was Jesus. The rest I have really forgotten. But is Yeshua Ben Joseph, Jesus? And if so, why Ben Joseph? Wasn’t Mary’s husband called Josef?

Let us start by looking at everything from a Metaphysical angle.

Metaphysical

Metaphysical meaning of man
Man–An idea in Divine Mind; the epitome of being. The apex of God’s creation, created in His image and likeness.

Metaphysical meaning of fourth dimension
Fourth dimension–A transcendent realm that Jesus called the “kingdom of the heavens.” Here one can discern the trend of spiritual forces and see with the spiritual vision of the Christ Mind.

Metaphysical meaning of frankincense
Frankincense–“A fragrant gum resin” (Webster). Metaphysically, it represents in man the transmutation of the material consciousness into the spiritual.

Metaphysical meaning of myrrh 
Myrrh–An aromatic gum resin; a slightly pungent perfume, used for incense. Metaphysically myrrh represents the eternity of Spirit, an emblem of the Resurrection, an ointment of love.

Metaphysical meaning of gold 
Gold–Metaphysically, gold represents spiritual gifts, the riches of Spirit. The gold that the Wise Men brought to the Christ child was a consciousness of the omnipresent richness of substance. 

What were those three gifts?

Frankincense = Metaphysical meaning of frankincense.
Frankincense–“A fragrant gum resin” (Webster). Metaphysically, it represents in man the transmutation of the material consciousness into the spiritual. Frankincense very much supports the body and mind because it works as an energy medicine. It affects our own energy field, and because that energy field is the link between our body and mind, it tends to stimulate the body and mind to move toward frankincense may also have an implied connection with the Temple worship of the Old Covenant.

Myrrh = Much like frankincense, myrrh is not an herb but a resin. The scent is said to boost the spirits and the soul. Both frankincense and myrrh have healing properties that can help people emotionally, vibrationally, and spiritually. 

Gold = The gold that the Wise Men brought to the Christ child was a consciousness of the omnipresent richness of substance. The energy within gold is really the radiant, and the energy within gold is of extremely high vibratory rate, it can only act upon the finer and more subtle expressions of life, through absorption. Gold brings connection to the universe and its knowledge, natural energies, and wisdom.  It unlocks and activates the third eye and crown chakras. Gold opens the crown chakra, and you can attract divine consciousness. The Divine Energy is activated and emitted from the gold ring, aka the Halo depicted in many pictures of Jesus.

The Star of Bethlehem

A Comet (they say was in actual fact Hayley’s comet) that happened to be in the sky at the time of the birth of Jesus, is said to have shown the Three Wise Men they path to finding Mary and Joseph, just after Jesus was born. Science/Astrology will tell you that there was an appearance of Haley’s Comet in 12 BC. But that date is too early to align with other astrological events surrounding the birth of Christ.

Science/Astrology will tell you that there was an appearance of Haley’s Comet in 12 BC. But that date is too early to align with other astrological events surrounding the birth of Christ.

The Star of Bethlehem could have also been a Merkabah. In Many parts of Europe we see Advent Stars being erected to be shining bright from the 1st Advent.
I know in Germany; this Advent Star sits on top of the Christmas Tree.

What Is Merkabah?

The Merkabah (meaning light-spirit-body) is the energy sphere in which everything exists. It is the vehicle that carries you to the dimensions of unity and love that exist beyond the mind. The upward and downward interlocked tetrahedrons represent the duality of existence—body and spirit—united in the harmony of a singular form.

Merkabah is a 5,000 year old word that describes how one can use one’s Conscious Awareness to fill one’s Spiritual Energy Fields of Consciousness with the energies of Unconditional Love and transcend dimensional levels of Consciousness.

Merkabah Meaning 
The word Merkabah comes from a Hebrew word which means “chariot”, & when broken down phonetically means “light, body, spirit” from an ancient Egyptian translation. If you consider both meanings, it essentially refers to a way of connecting with light, body, and spirit through the means of this ‘vehicle’ or symbol.

In other words, the Merkabah is an energy matrix surrounding the aura that strengthens the alignment between the mind, body, and Soul. It offers protection to the user and aligns you more fully with your higher self.

Who is Yeshua Ben Joseph?

In the Irish language some still use “óg “ in their names. In Irish it means “young” or “the young one”.

Mac — means “son of” — anglicized as Mc or left as Mac.

Ó (Oh-fada)— means “grandson of” — anglicized as O’.

Example:

Seán (John) Óg = John Jnr. Furthermore: Surnames with ‘Mac or Mc’ in them meant ‘son of’, for example, Seán Mac Suibhne (Seán (of) Sweeney) and James, Seamus, Seán  Ó Cléirigh (now O’Clery / Clery) is James, grandson of Clery.

Hope I haven’t confused you too much.

The Hebrew word Ben (בן‎), meaning “son” or “boy”, forms part of many surnames in Hebrew.

Yeshua is a name that means ‘Salvation’ in Hebrew.  The noun means the save deliverer.

The name Joseph/Josef means Increaser, Repeater or Doubler and in Hebrew, means “God will add.

Yeshua Ben Joseph is in fact the soul essence of our Cosmic father himself.

Conclusion:                                                                                                    

The Gifts from the Three Wise Men ensured he never lost the connection to his origin or original self, as opposed to “higher self”, to which we now refer to.

Co-incidences do not exist. Everything is in the plan of the great Divine Planer – call it Universe, Cosmos, or God. God is Soul Source. God is the Origin of All.

The comet, the star, those three wise men saw that night, I believe, was in actual fact the birth of Jesus, but not how it is written in the scripts. I believe those three men, who came from three different directions, witnessed a “Repeater”, a Soul representative of God himself, make his way, in a Merkabah, to be birthed at that very moment in time.(Co-incidences do not exist.) This fragment of Soul was not born without the knowledge where he originated from (unlike us StarSeeds). The Saviour Son of God (Yeshua Ben Joseph) was placed here at that right time, to deliver God’s messages to Mankind. But I guess, Mankind wasn’t ready then, and today with Social Media influencing our lives, we struggle to hear his words and teachings still.

I believe in Jesus. I believe in Source.
Jesus was a Spiritual Person, not religious. He just happened to be born to Jewish parents. And somehow is now believed to be Christian.

Disclaimer:
This is not meant to offend anyone. But certain facts cannot be ignored. If you are offended, please do not leave any horrible comments. Just move on. Then is article does not resonate with you, but I wonder: why did you continue reading this?

I am a Spiritualist. I practice Spirituality.

Merry Christmas 2022 and may 2023 be a healthy and prosperous years for us all.

Development of the Chakras

Development of the Chakras

More ideas from my unfinished book, which I started in 2016, that I would like to share with you. CWD 30/10/2022

How to Work with Chakras
It is finest to work with only one level of one body of chakras at one time. The most effective method is to begin at the physical level of the physical body; firstly, it is needed to go forward to the emotional of the physical, the mental, etc. staying, until one has finished all seven levels of the physical body. Having concluded work on the physical body, it is advised to move on to the emotional, mental and so on, through all the bodies.

It is best to work on only one body at one time, because one may become too baffled, spacey or bewildered, performing too many bodies at once.

Cleansing and Opening Chakras
1. With one’s hand, it is best to find the location of the chakra or chakras in the body. Directions needs to be followed, looking at the areas portrayed in picture. Commonly, the energy of the chakras will feel different from that of the adjoining areas.

2. The chakra spot needs to be massaged gently. This helps open it and release early blocks. If there is much pain, it is best advised not to massage, instead, it is needed to hold the hand over the chakra and send energy into it. The extra energy helps liberate the block. Further assistance in release can be accomplished by imagining the energy going from one’s hands into the chakra; energy follows imagination. After a few moments, the chakra must be released. It is however advised not to press hard on the xiphoid process, as it can be injured easily.

3. Either one needs to lie down or sit comfortably. It is needed to let oneself go wholly and allow thoughts or feelings come to oneself. When energy is ejected from the chakra, information comes to one’s consciousness; it may be a strong message, a memory of an accident, or an attitude. One must let his/her mind ramble. The time essential for these messages to come through, alters from a few moments to as much as 15 or 30 minutes. One can do what feels comfortable to them, but never can they stop the method too soon. If nothing comes and one feels comfortable with letting it go, it is absolutely perfect; but if one is restless, uncomfortable or irritable, one perhaps should quit. It is advised to remember that the blocks may have existed for a long time and one might or might not desire to re-block or hold things back. When the purification is completed, one will mostly experience a liberation of energy and feel rejuvenated and stimulated.

Energy Flows
In the beginning, it is best to try to jet the energy come directly to one’s chakras, forbearing from spinning the chakras in both directions. The energy must be allowed to simply come out in a direct fashion, until the area feels free and clear. If one wishes, in later work, one can spin one’s chakras so that the energy going over the top of the chakra goes to the left side (clockwise from the outside). As long as the energy gushes or twirls away from the body, one will be in a superior emotional or spiritual level. But if the energy twirls back into the body, it can cause negative or gloomy feelings. Sometimes, one might desire to twirl energy over the top of he chakra to the right side of the body (counterclockwise from the outside), putting one in touch with the mental or high mental vibrations for as long as the energy diversifies away from the body (twirling back into the body it will again cause gloomy attitudes and negative sensings).

It is advised to experiment with the flow of one’s own chakras. In the start, it will be a little complicated to be conscious of direction, but with patience, one will develop greater understanding and more command over one’s life.

Posture
People generally sit or stand in a fashion that blocks substantial extra chakra flow. One can, for example, have problem dealing with one’s “I Amness” and feeling superior about oneself, in which case one may round one’s shoulders or bend one’s body to shut off those feelings. Another probability is that one can curve in one’s chest as a way of blockading the several chakras on the breastbone and compromise one’s will to live (level five of the physical body). Then, one needs to observe one’s posture. If he/she senses that by the way one carries oneself, one is blockading the chakras, it is advised to work on those particular chakras to find out what thoughts or feelings they contain, one could gain much perceptiveness into one’s attitude towards one’s own self.

Awareness
Awareness of position and change, achings, hurts, or tensions can all be tiny signals that something is going awry with the energy pattern in some place in the body. It is always the chakras of those areas that will be influenced. Individuals can shut them off subconsciously through fear, turning away from things, or holding back. By doing so, one can pull the energy into the body, causing heaviness, gloominess, or obstructed muscles.

When one feels beaming and jubilant, the energy flows out, radiating from the bodies and opening one’s chakras. During a specifically joyous, happy, up-time, energy in blocked areas inclines to liberate; thus several days later, one finds oneself miserable, dispirited and in need of dealing with the released energy. But if one goes with it, works with it and allows it to continue the purification, it should not be long until one is feeling quite elated again.

Recommendations
It is recommended to develop the fifth eye before working with the third eye, as anything the third eye can do to the fifth eye, can perform better. The threat in working powerfully with the third eye first is that it is so allied with ego, it may nurture spiritual conceit. The fifth eye aids developing the bigger picture beyond the individual picture. It is also advocated to develop the “will to live” heart chakra, firstly, in order to heighten heart potency. Developing the compassionate heart chakra first might lead to turning exceedingly compassionate and exhausted; it is not beneficial to give too much from a heart chakra, until the power is built from inside and one learns to channelise energy through it.

Front Chakras versus Back Chakras
The primary concern is with the spinal chakras, opening in the front rather than in the back. Unless the front areas are purified and vitalised, energy from the spine will be blocked; as the front chakras open, the nadis or connections from the front chakras to the spinal openings mechanically open up. In addition, working on the spinal openings may bring an extravagant interest in phenomena, injurious to a person’s development, exciting possibly, but not of principal importance in growth.

Opening up Body Energy
Firstly, one must stand in the centre of the room. It is advised to get the feeling of letting one’s energy go out from the entire body to fill the whole room, even the corners. This is a method of releasing energy from and balancing the chakras. Performing this, toughens up the aura. One can hold back other people’s energies and possibly then become conscious from the outer edge of one’s aura about how others feel or think, as opposed to having the energy come in and influence the body. In addition, as the aura is reinforced, one’s outgoing energies are toughened and customised by the general energy in one’s own aura and will not affect others as profoundly.

Sending and Receiving Energy
Chakras are energy broadcasting and receiving stations. One transmits energies, turning it into messages or feelings for other people. But, one is incessantly receiving from others, sometimes imperceptibly or subconsciously, and at other times in a very alert state. More often than not, the energy of others is an encroachment on one’s own energy designs and may leave one contemplating on possessing moods, thoughts, feelings to work out, which are not essentially one’s own; or the interfering energies may just slow one down. One might also think that he/she has an ailment, ache or tension.

Exercise
Exercise is pretty important in helping to level the energy passing through the body. Several problems work themselves out just by physical exercises. Yoga is an especially good form of exercise to maintain better chakra condition. Free-form dance is also extremely helpful; as one dances, one accentuates various movements of the body, liberating blocked energy. Rest is also essential, allowing the system to balance energies and make its own modifications; often if an individual just leaves the body alone for a while, allow it take rest, it does much to mend itself and free choked up areas.

Thank you for showing an interest and please do leave comments. I see them as little nuggets and thought provoking.
