Capacities Magnify when Collectives’ Actions Unify By Elizabeth Geyer

A field of people gathered in January and February to paint a new canvas of Self! What has risen as a result? These phrases below were the ones that popped out from unpacking the first recursion of Craving what 2023 is for me. There is so much afoot now, and these phrases are evident in my life, and all over the planet in various forms.

a flow of congruent language that is excited nourishment
finding common grounding of Self with others
everything being newly forged
potency in collective energies
a lifetimes project of deep longing
poking this curious mind and heart where She has not dared to go before.
emboldened steps to Being with Creation as explorer
honoring the new music of life’s light
a matrix unique to each cell, organ, tissue, the All of each of Us
increasing the energetic power of each and every-one who is listening for the beauty of these nuances of shift
a warm, loving space to BE with one another in this rich, all encompassing field of Being, dreaming, action and joy!

I remember back to the beginning of January when I wasn’t certain at all about unpacking. I just knew I had to do it! What evidence has shown itself to further unpack, or what has shown up as a result of unpacking that I can see in my own life? So much! There have been many moments of beauty, intensity, unworkability, play, creativity, joy, sadness.

One story that pops up from reading the phrases that have pinged me, is that of the health journey I began in January that I am unpacking. “Poking this curious mind and heart where She has not dared to go before” is what raised my attention. I have poked into many places to finally begin to take really good care of my body and how I fuel her and exercise her. I have not dared to exercise like this in over 20 years! I have not dared to really look into how much it matters when I prepare meals lovingly. I have not dared to connect with people around health and have a health journey group before. So much has been unpacked here because I am unpacking Self this year! I have not dared to reflect on the stories I tell myself that in the past, sabotaged my journey. The latest story is how I have to have a half banana and ¼ cup nuts before I work out. This week I learned that I was afraid, and told a story that said I need these foods. Nope…not true. Some days it might be true. Other days, no. My body asked me to check in on a workout by workout basis from now on. Duh! Oh…this unpacking is such a cool process!

Another phrase that pinged me is “a flow of congruent language that is excited nourishment”. In The Field of Tantra Maat, there are phrases that we use that I am beginning to hear outside the field. One phrase is ‘building new neural pathways.’ I wanted to kiss my swim instructor yesterday, because she gave us exercises to do in the pool that make us feel so geeky, and they exercise the brain in doing them! I am also hearing other phrases more commonly spoken out in more public spaces. Some of you, I am certain, have been finding commonalities also. Isn’t it amazing how unpacking is rippling out in ways we didn’t have a clue that it would?

Are you noticing that when you are with others doing any body of work, that you seem more capable? This is such a delight! It is as though the universe just purchased a lot of new mirrors and now we are all reflecting off of each other! Let us let these thoughts steep, as they fuel the fires of unpacking more deeply!

SandTalk – An Extraordinary Reading Experience

creation Awakening, Body, Brain, capacity, communication, community, connection, Creation Templates, Elektra Porzel, interactive, interdependent, interrelated, Language of Creation, Mind, Stamina, Strength aborigine, future, land, nature, Sandtalk, sustainable 0

You have heard how impressed that I am by SandTalk. Here is a review by Elke Power of Readings Monthly.

“Tyson Yunkaporta’s Sand Talk is an extraordinary reading experience. It’s both philosophical and practical, and underpinned by a compassionate yet realistic humanity. At the core of Sand Talk is a deep respect for Indigenous Knowledge, to which long-term thinking is fundamental. As Yunkaporta demonstrates, a central principle of Indigenous Knowledge and learning paradigms is looking back and recognizing patterns from the past, then learning from them. That’s an extreme simplification due to the length of this review, but as Yunkaporta convincingly argues, it is this kind and caliber of thinking that is profoundly lacking in many societies today, including in Australia, and the damage wrought upon our world in its absence is abundantly evident.

Yunkaporta writes with a clear-eyed sense of his own perspective, flaws and past failures. An academic, an artist, and much more besides, language is important to him. Like many of Australia’s First Peoples, he has a complex identity and history, and he writes, ‘I often don’t get to decide what I call myself.’ Throughout Sand Talk, he carefully shares stories of life-changing ‘yarns’ – a term he defines precisely early on – with people he has met on his extensive research travels.

Sand Talk is an engaging and singular introduction to the elements of Indigenous Knowledge, thinking, and methods of communication that Yunkaporta is in a position to share. It’s an opportunity to recognize these concepts and their history, and a generous invitation to incorporate these methods into non-Indigenous thinking for the benefit of all. It’s an unforgettable book, rich with ideas and inspiring in its conviction in the human capacity for personal change and growth. Open it to any page, read and enjoy!”

The LOC Institute is offering a series of discussions led by Elektra Porzel about Sandtalk starting on March 15th at 9amPT and every two weeks thereafter. Calls will last 60-90 minutes. We will discuss it chapter by chapter.

Questions we may explore:

How are these concepts/practices of the Aborigines with each other in community, with the land, with nature different than our relationships with each other, with the land and nature?
Are the concepts/practices presented something that we might adapt?
What impact might that have in our lives?
What if a large percentage of the human population adopted that practice…what might the impact be in how our society functions?
What are you called to write a Creation Exercise on? What did you experience when and after you wrote your Creation Exercise? (If you are unfamiliar with the Templates of the Language of Creation, I can work with you offline to teach you how to write your Creation Exercises)

I look forward to ‘yarning’ with you!

Discovering the Deeper Natures of Unpacking, By Elizabeth Geyer

Have you ever had a topic you were super interested in take you down many different pathways to relate to it? Have you ever had that topic become almost a friend, and not let you go? This has been unpacking for me!

Way back in November of 2022, I could see in my mind’s eye, a gathering place, with people gathered around a fire, telling stories and sharing their experiences. I felt such a deep kinship with this group that had not yet shown itself! Guess what? That group surfaced, and began to meet to immerse ourselves in the writing of The Creation Templates. Then, another ‘download’ occurred over the holidays. A knowing that unpacking our lives, our journeys, and the deeper relationship with ourselves could be created. I simply kept being with that ‘can’t not’ feeling…can’t not unpack in 2023!

Currently, this amazing group has almost completed The Art of Unpacking The Creation Templates, series 1. We have just begun to form a relationship with unpacking what there is to unpack in our lives. I had no idea that unpacking had so many pathways! I also had no idea that unpacking would show up everywhere…not just in the writing of the Creation Exercises! There are so many ways to look at unpacking now!

What might you be unpacking this year? How has using a magnifying glass to unpack what is there for you shifted you being who you are? How has taking a deeper dive into the wonder of you been for you? For me, I can see unpacking everywhere! I am unpacking my health and what that is for me; I am unpacking becoming an empty nester, becoming a mom to only three cats and missing the 4th one that just moved out. I am unpacking what my relationship with my daughters is for me now that they aren’t here at home anymore. My relationship with my partner and how we are here at home…another exploration…my relationship with unpacking…with others I hold dear in my life and who they are as part of this unpacking…unpacking what listening to my heart is…listening to my body…listening to my mentors…listening to Mother Earth. This list could go on and on!

The other lens I am observing from is that which has my attention, and discerning that attention with more clarity. In other words…what happens if I am writing a Creation Exercise, unpacking it, and I hit a wall? To observe further I have now learned to ask this: Have I hit a wall because the language in this phrase I am unpacking cannot hold a deeper resonance? Have I hit a wall because the phrase has ‘unearthed’ discomfort and I am not certain I have the strength to follow the unpacking thread? These are questions I have never asked mySelf. What do I ‘do’ if the Template falls flat? Well…newsflash…I am coming to discern that writing that falls flat means I need to let Time pass and let the mind, body and spirit ‘steep’. Knowing I am uncomfortable about something only makes me want to persevere to follow that thread to walk along the path to move to the next greater whole! And looking more deeply if the writing isn’t resonating at all has also been part of the experience of unpacking. Choosing to write a Creation Exercise more mindfully and slowly has been a big help to solve the issue of my writing falling flat.

If you are unpacking, and you run into a wall…I call it a firewall…perhaps ask your heart some of these questions. This year I am working on relevancy and potency of exploring mySelf and Her deeper natures of Being. “S.H.E.” has a lot to say and is loving Her audience!

Unpacking the deeper nature of Being and Self is an amazing journey thus far. I would love to share this experience of unpacking with you! In hindsight, I am so blown away by the deeper nature of life that has shown up all around me, loved ones, my communities, both local and global, with the Earth and the Universe…this is BIG? Yes?!! Who wouldn’t want this amazing experience?

What is a Modern Indigen?

by Elektra Porzel

In Western societies, we have lost much of what our indigenous ancestors thought about the world and how they interacted with it. In studying present-day indigenous peoples, we can extrapolate that our indigenous ancestors were part of a connected relationship with each other, with the land and with nature. Those relationships included their access thru their bodies, their emotions, and their minds. Many of us have lost those regular connections. Our western focus is on activities that pull us into the mind which defines how things are different and not how they are the same, not how the other is connected to the ‘me’ and to the ‘us’, not how our bodies inform us and how our emotions inform us. Thus, the reality that we live within is one of separation. This is not a sustainable mind/body/spirit reality for humanity to build on for the future.

Many present-day humans are seeking to reestablish these connections with their body, their emotions and their minds. They are seeking to be differently in their relationships to each other, to the land and to nature. We are seeking to recreate a reality of unity with all life, so that our children, our grandchildren, and the coming generations will have access to a world where there is a place for everyone and everything. A world where everyone can be supported in bringing their unique gifts to the community. A world where the people hold the common good in their actions and thinking. That’s my version of a Modern Indigen.

How do we relearn some of the ways our indigenous ancestors thought and how they interrelated with the world?

Each of us are the descendants of some indigenous people. Some are still active in that lineage while many of us are dozens to hundreds of generations away from our indigenous lineage. Though we can’t go back in time, we can look at how the indigenous peoples of the present-day think and act together. That viewing can give us a more vivid comprehension of what it means to be in connection with the land and nature. To be in the wholeness of thinking of and with, of acting within the whole.

In ‘SandTalk’ by Tyson Yunkaporta, the author describes and explores different ways that his aboriginal ancestors (and his present day indigenous community) connected as individuals and as a group; how they thought and how they acted together while in relationship with the whole.

This is a living example of whole system thinking where we examine the whole as one actively in connection with others. There is no examining one piece at a time as we have done in our western thinking. This is a wider, deeper, higher way of holding the other while in a dynamic connection. It feels to me that if we take the time to dive deeper, we can ‘get it in our bones’ and thus come to comprehend how we might think and act differently.

Yunkaporta offers to the reader the opportunity to listen to the activity in its placement within a whole culture. What would it mean to live in the wholeness of such an activity in the western culture, in our larger friend/families or kin groupings? How can we teach ourselves and our children to move into practices of whole system thinking and acting? Will such a move give our children and grandchildren a future that is sustainable for generations upon generations?

I hope that this intrigues you, interests you. I am offering all of us an opportunity to delve deeply into these ideas in ‘Sandtalk’ with a program called Becoming a Modern Indigen.

Starting on March 15th, I will be leading a book discussion/immersion group where, for each call, we will discuss not only the ideas put forth in a chapter, but also we will explore how to live that concept/practice in our lives. For those of us who write the Creation Exercises, we will write a Creation Exercise on a term or idea from that chapter.

I sense that this book needed a deeper look than just a one time reading. I want to create a better future for my descendants and yours. Only in the deeper wider thinking can we try on these practices in ways that might work in the present. This is a deeper dive. Hopefully we will be integrating these new ways of thinking about and being with others into our daily lives.

My plan is for the group to meet every two weeks starting on March 15^th at 9amPT.

Want to take this deeper dive with me?

First, register for the program ( https://www.loc-institute.com/product/becoming-a-modern-indigen-using-sandtalk-by-t-yunkaporta-and-the-creation-templates/ );

Second, buy the book and read Chapter 1 before our first class.

From March thru early June, we will meet every two weeks. Then we will take the time to let all that whole system thinking and acting settle into our systems. Starting in September we will return to the book discussion/immersion looking at Chapters 8-14.

When I first read this book, I listened to it because Yunkaporta’s voice provided the sound frequencies of his truth. Then I used a Kindle version and a paperback version to let my mind track his connections more deeply. I recommend all these versions for you to use in your deepening into the more of what we humans can be and do.

Be with me in this deeper dive of exploration and application to our lives!

Starts: Wednesday March 15th. Runs for 7 calls for Chap 1-7

Being in Regeneration of Self and Body by Elektra Porzel

What is Generation?

– relating to or capable of production or reproduction.

“the female reproductive system and its generative cycles”

– having the power or function of generating, originating, producing, or reproducing.

What is it to regenerate our Self…our Original Design?

In the LOC Institute, when we use the upper-case ‘S’ in the word Self, we are referring an inclusionary field that holds both the historic personality ‘self’ and our larger Spirit embodied. We also call this field, our MetaSelf. As our MetaSelf, the dominant vibration is that of the individual’s Spirit. This vibration in the embodiment is moving the human back into its original design of its body and its Spirit. The Original Design of humanity includes our body in an expanded strength, stamina, and capacity to BE whom we came here to be. In this process of becoming our MetaSelf, we stand in this higher frequency of our Spirit embodied, and our cells vibrate such that the sludge of the reality of separation moves out of our cells, our tissues, our organs, our bones. This cellular cleansing even occurs down to our cell’s electrons and quarks. In this cleansing and the cellular return to its original design, the body can return to the original functions of its design. And our Spirit can inhabit our body so that we live what we came here to Be, Do and Have.

Regeneration definitions

Regeneration is a common function in the biological world: ‘the natural process of replacing or restoring damaged or missing cells, tissues, organs and even entire body parts to the full function in plants and animals.’

Since it is accepted fact that the body knows about regeneration of its biological components, we can assume that this biological regeneration process that is stimulated by the higher frequencies of our Spirit, our MetaSelf, is initiated to make all cells, from the quark on up to organs, brains, and bones, capable of operating effectively within the higher frequencies of our original design.

From the theological view, there is this definition from 2 Corinthians 5:17; 1 Peter 1:23 that describes this regeneration of our Spirit embodied. (I have modified its language) “the impartation of divine life which is manifested in that radical change in the moral character of the human into love of God/Goddess/Creation/Great Spirit and a life of righteousness/godliness/principled/reverence”

Thus, our Spirit regeneration has been experienced before in our human history. Our Spirit and are bodies can return to their original design.

How do we experience this regeneration of our original design and our MetaSelf?

First you must be curious, paying attention to how you are being in the world. You may use any number of modalities to regularly listen to your body, your emotions, and your languaging so that you can shift out of historic reactions to make choice in how you act with others. This listening and paying attention will shift your viewpoint to that of the Observer. Thus, you can change your actions and your responses and the results that you experience in the world. You become able to behave differently in the world. Your changed behaviors change the results you achieve in relationships to yourself, to others and to your Source.

In the Language of Consciousness Institute, we utilize the Templates of the Language of Creation to become familiar with our biological registers for resonance, for life-enhancing and life-generating language. We become the Observer and the Craver. We write our Cravings into direct communication with our Spirit and with Creation. The regular writing of our Creation Exercises sets us into a continuous realignment with our Spirit’s purpose for our life in this lifetime. We share with others our ahas, our challenges and our joys from working with the Templates. We are connected and interconnected in a matrix of connection with all life on earth and with the greater forces of the universe visible and invisible. Eventually some individuals have become fully aligned with their Spirit and with Creation. It is in this alignment that we experience the resonance of our Spirit embodied.

The reality that we crave has many complexities for each of us and is always vibrating within a reality of unity. That reality of unity is a field of higher dimensions that holds all that exists visible and invisible. As we inhabit this embodiment of our Spirit, the regeneration of our bodies begins. In talking with individuals who have experienced the higher resonance of their MetaSelf, they described the experience as: a higher vibration of the body and the field around it; of a sense of ‘this is right’, ‘I am held’ and the sense that these larger forces ‘have my back.’ A calmness and surety are also present. They also experienced physical symptoms of fatigue, sleepiness, symptoms of dis-ease such as coughing, colds, headaches etc. as the cells of their body are cleansed. The cleansing of the physical body can take many variations and will occur for each of us if we want to stand in our original design. In the resultant state, we are more capable of being whom we came here to be, what we came to do and what we would come to have.

How to be with another in the field of a Generative Force like Creation?

We cannot do this alone. You must be part of a larger field in order to become your MetaSelf. Energetically it takes a generative matrix to hold you while you do your individual work. Yes, you will be observing your own actions, reactions. You will be choosing different behaviors as you become more aware of whom you deeply want to be in the world. Yes, you will be writing your own Creation Exercises. To be with others in the field can be accomplished by joining and being active in a larger field of individuals that are active in the same kind of search. The Language of Consciousness Institute’s community and the Field of Tantra Maat are two such groups that would support you as you engage in becoming whom you came here to be.

Proposal

We are moving beyond old norms and behaviors as we seek to BE whom we came here to be. This is true for individuals and organizations. Below is our take on the culture that we hope to create thru the Language of Consciousness Institute.

The LOC Institute and its community form a generative foundation which provides a field within which the intrinsic power of humans in alignment with the Creation and their larger Spirit work together to generate, originate, produce, and develop a culture based in a reality of unity where diversity and complexity are both necessary and intrinsic to the continuous evolution of the culture and its people; where the unique and essential capabilities and capacities of each human are respected and supported in all functions within that resulting culture; where the people exist in community each in alignment with their own resonant nature and with the larger field within which they exist. That culture consists of customs, arts, social institutions, and achievements which embody a generative consistency in how its people act, think, evolve and work together. A generative matrix is thus formed that holds the weavings of the complex and diverse forms that arise in this generative culture.

Peace, Love, Community

creation community, connection, Creation Templates, Elektra Porzel, Historic mind, Human, Language of Creation, Life, Life-enhancing, Life-generating, listening, Mind, Winter Solstice Chappelle, community, peace, Trauma 0

What does this holiday season bring to your mind? While we may have a love/hate relationship with gift giving, for me the strongest contender for the most important thing about the holidays is being with others in community…the sharing of time and food with friends and family, the gifting to others who have been part of our lives this past year.

Recently I have been watching a BBC series called Candleford. It’s set in the rural England in the late 1800’s when there was so much change in how their society functioned. However, that just provides the plot of each episode, it is the human relationships that are the main players. We, the viewers, love to see the conflict resolved. We, the viewers, cry when the good ending doesn’t play out. I think that human lives still revolve around our human relationships. We intersect and interrelate with different people throughout the year. Sometimes those interactions make us feel good and sometimes not. That is life. We each are points of a matrix of a community. We are always in exchange of energy in constant connection with others whether we mean to or plan to. This matrix of interaction is integral to humanity’s thriving.

A friend of mine was once told that she would only impact one person in her lifetime, and she would never know who that person was. What did that do for her? It simply meant that everything she did could impact another in ways that she can’t know. Each person that she interacted with had the possibility of being that one person. It changed how she acted in the world with others. Isn’t that the same for all of us? How do we know when our kind word, or our courage or kindness is not just experienced by another but also viewed by many others? How does that experience or observation impact the one who experiences or views the act? We never know. There was a great commercial last year in which this was acted out. It showed the viewers that when we are treated well, we extend that good treatment to the next person that we meet. Isn’t this what we each need in our lives? Treating others as we wish to be treated.

My hope for you this holiday season is that you treat others as you wish to be treated and that others treat you as they would wish to be treated. Doesn’t matter what gender, race, religion, or ethnic group they identify with. It matters because we are all human and as such are part of one human soul, interconnected in a magnificent matrix of life. How we choose to live each day impacts our life and the lives of others whether they are family, friends, neighbors, store clerks, or strangers, rich, poor or homeless. Let’s all remember this as we choose how we act with others this holiday season.

Diwali has passed in mid- November. Hannukah has just begun. Winter Solstice, Christmas and Kwanza are yet to be celebrated. In all these celebrations, our hearts are rich with friendship, shared food, and ritual. One ritual that I love to lead at my Winter Solstice parties is the Blessing Circle. In the first round, each person says what they are grateful for in the past year. In the second round, each person shares a blessing for the person next to them. These blessings are for people they know as well as for someone they don’t know. These blessings are always beautiful, shared from heart to heart. It’s a lovely way to end a party celebrating the new year of life coming into our community and our world.

I recently read an article in the Sun Magazine(Nov 2021)about an interview of Paul K.Chappelle, a peace literacy teacher. He points out that we don’t teach peace in schools and that being peaceful is one of our most needed capacities in this modern world. Chappelle went to West Point and served in Iraq. His early life and his work in the military led him to create the Peace Literacy Institute. He notes that our personal and ancestral lineages all carry different traumas and that these traumas impact how we act with others. He calls it trauma tangling. He suggests that one way to untangle the impact of past trauma is to become peace literate. These past traumas of our personal lives and our ancestral lineages are automatic ways of acting and thinking. These patterns get in the way of our learning how to live peacefully, to think differently and to stand in our strength as peaceful Beings. The Creation Exercises of the Language of Creation are a great tool for this process. Their structure supports the writer in shifting their automatic thinking in trauma patterns to thinking of only that which is life-enhancing, life-generating for them. My holiday wish is that we all listen more to peace than war, to note what we are present to in our life, to open up more to others and to that which is rising and to stand for peace, love and community.

In the coming year, we all usually make resolutions to be and do better. Let’s take a step in the New Year to be more of whom we came here to be; more of our unique and essential selves; more loving to ourselves and others; and braver to stand when the rights of the individual or the whole are being violated. We must stand for our highest values. We must listen to what is being said and done and stand on the side of the greater good for humanity and the earth. That would be the best resolution of all.

May your holidays be filled with loving exchanges and may your new year be filled with all the being and doing that your Soul is aching for you to manifest in the world.

Being in this Season of Gratitude

creation community, connection, consciousness, Creation, Creation Templates, Elektra Porzel, Language of Creation, Observing, Reality, Resonance, Winter Solstice Christmas, creation exercises, Diwali, Gratitude, templates, Winter Solstice 0

We have passed the harvest season when our ancestors would have gathered in the crops. They were grateful that they had food until the next spring to feed their families and their communities. As the work of crop tending died down, our ancestors had time to step back and be grateful for all that they had received this year – in crops, in new life in the community, in friendships and family that supported them. This is the season for each of us, today, to be grateful. To be grateful for food, for shelter, for loving friends, for living a life that we stand tall within, that allows us to BE all that we came here to BE. If you wrote an Observing Being about how you BE today, what would you be present to being? What would you open up to being? What would you be? This Observing Template helps us reflect on how we are being in our life. It pulls us out of emotional looping and thought looping. Use it this season to clear your mind, heart and spirit so that you can open up to gratitude.

Once Samhain has passed, our ancestors looked to the darkening colder days and wondered. Will the sun still heat our planet next year? Will we continue to be blest with new food, new human life, supportive community life? So, this season marks the festivals that celebrate not just this harvest of survival and thrival but the coming of light for the new year with promises for another year of being fed by our earth. Diwali is the first to arrive on Thursday Nov 4th. Called the Festival of Lights it includes gatherings of family and friends for shared ritual, shared food and good times together. The children receive gifts and another year is looked forward to. In the US, there is Thanksgiving when families gather from our far-flung outposts to meet and share a feast together. Hannukah, also called a Festival of Light, arrives on Nov 28th this year with a focus on miracle of the lights of the Temple in Jerusalem staying lit for 8 days. This miracle is celebrated with shared ritual, food and gift giving. Gratitude is the theme for all these November festivals.

Winter Solstice arrives on Dec 20th this year. It too focuses on sharing food and celebrations with family and friends. Wiping out the old of the previous year and looking forward in delight to the shortest day ending and to the longer days that will again bring back the sun to help us feed ourselves and our communities. Also known as Soyal in the Hopi Nation, Dong Ahi in China, Inti Rayni in Peru, Yalda Night in Iran and Afganistan, this is probably our oldest festival of light. What light are you calling in for your own life, for your family’s life, for your community’s life, for your nation’s life? We must not waste the precious gifts that we have been given, that all humans were given. How will you BE in this season and in the coming year, so that what you crave in life will be manifested? The Templates of the Language of Creation are a gift that keeps on giving. What do you Crave? What do you Crave being? How would you change the meanings of words so that they were resonant in your inner Self? Craving What…Craving what being? Templates 5,6 and 7 move you in craving in your connection with Creation/God/Goddess. Use them if you crave being in alignment with your Source.

Then there is Christmas presently celebrated on the 25th of December with family and friends gathering to celebrate the day and their own community with gift giving for all, particularly for children with the figure of Santa Claus in the USA. Kwanza follows as the newest festival of gratitude, and it continues the theme of gratitude, community, shared food, gift giving and sustainability for all.

Take a deep breath. That’s it, breathe thru your nose and out your mouth. Keep breathing in a slow natural cycle. Now take out your Observing or Observing being Templates. Write what you are present to…what you are opening up to…what you have. This is a season of Gratitude and therefore it is also a season of reflection. Reflect on what you crave for your life and write a Template on that. Then write an Observing. Are you in an emotional or mental looping? Write an Observing or Observing being Creation Exercise. These templates literally take your hand and support you in having the world, the reality, that you crave to live in and to be in. Give yourself a gift this season and write your Creation Exercises every day. Then on New Year’s Day when you would usually write your New Year’s Resolutions, write your Creation Exercises on Template 7 and start to unpack it for the coming month.

Be as a Drop of Water in the Ocean

What do you have in common with a drop of water in an ocean? While it is hard to see or experience one water cell in the ocean, they do exist. They make up the body of the ocean. Just like each cell of your body makes up the totality of your physical form. Or a grain of sand…similar and not distinguishable in a beach of sand, but yet the very substance of what the beach is.

You are an entity that has billions of cells within you each of which acts on behalf of the survival of your form. While your body is similar to all other human bodies, none are exactly alike. Yet we are all part of one human species on earth. We are one with other humans interested in the survival of our species and, here is the rub, not all humans are committed to doing what they can do to help the planet survive. There’s the anomaly – does a species survive if the larger field within which it exists fails? Probably not.

Remember the phrase, ‘So Above, so below’. That means that however the Universe is created…its divisions, its subdivisions…then all the forms and entities in the Universe and life on earth are also organized in the same way. If a grain of sand and a drop of water in the ocean are part of larger matrices of sand beaches or lakes/rivers/oceans, then what does that extrapolate about the human being and the human species, about the human Spirit and the Human Soul? If we exist in a singular form and are part of a larger field of similar forms, then aren’t each of us part of the matrix of the Human species, then aren’t our individual Spirits part of large groupings in the etheric world, and part of one Human Soul? So Above…so below.

We impact the world around us whether we like to acknowledge it or not. Happy or depressed we permeate our neighborhood with our vibrations which can be our emotions or our state of being. Jacqueline Freeman in Song of Increase explains this from the bee’s perspective, “Humans make a contribution by developing the higher self. The community present on the land is influenced by the emotional tones carried in each human. These powerful singings help or hinder the development and expression of all beings present. Humans who dwell in strongly negative energies are capable of undoing eons of expression and can bring the land presence to doldrums; forward advancement comes to a pause. Such human action may not seem significant on its own, but in party to all the presences, it can stall, influence or hasten co-evolution”

Without the drops of water there is no ocean. Without the grains of sand there is no beach. Without the song of our Spirit singing, the human species and all other species cannot flourish.

We are both water and matter; we are Spirit and flesh; we are biochemical and alchemical; we are finite and infinite; we are one with all the cells of our body and we are linked as one in the field of the Human species.

How we choose to be in life makes a difference to the field of Human Being and to all that live near us or with us. Template 4 is a tool to define what a state of being is for you. When you write your Creation Exercise using Template 4, you redefine how you want to be in the world whether it is short-term or for a lifetime.

You came here to be what you came here to be. You came here to do what you came here to do. How do you let go of your historic self, your history, and become more of whom you came here to be? Write your Creation Exercises on Template 4. Doing this, the deepest matrix of your Being will become present and live within you, within your body and be present in how you live your daily life.

Yes, like the drop of water in the ocean, you are needed so that the Human species can flourish and care for the earth so that it may flourish.

This month we are focusing on Template 4 in our Self Study call and in our Template Wisdom Gathering call. Our 40 Day In-Home Spiritual Retreat holds all of us as we join in a common field of becoming more of whom we came here to be. Links to participate are below.

Empathy and Your Empathic Response

by Elektra Porzel, Director Language of Consciousness Institute

Human beings were originally created to be and are one connected whole. They were and are the individual spirits comprising one Human Soul. Like the cells of a human body, where each cell acts on behalf of the healthy functioning of the system, the organ and the whole body; each Spirit likewise impacts the health of the One Human Soul. At one time humans lived in communities where they recognized that unity and those interconnections. We respected all life and related to it as part of the same whole that we were part of. What happened for one, happened for all. In those days, the word ‘empathy’ was not needed in the languages of that time, because the people experienced themselves as interconnected with each other and all life. They ‘got’ their unity with the Eternal, with the Universe, with each other and with all life.

Even at late as 2000 years ago, this can be seen in the Aramaic language and the ancient Hebrew language. Somehow, somewhere, sometime since then, the human species lost its sense of connection and of being in unity with all life. Probably around the same time, our languages started to reflect a separation from other humans and other forms of life. Remember in 1966, when Time magazine’s cover asked, ‘Is God Dead?’ I believe that this reflected the separation from religious institutions that Americans were evidencing. Our religious institutions no longer connected the people to the eternal and to all life. We were separate in our religions and our religions were separate from our daily lives. We had begun to experience our own and our family’s survival as being on our back alone. “Pull yourself by your own bootstraps’ battled ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ in the American history. The lone cowboy is honored. The matriarch or patriarch of a family or village is not.

The drive to live in community has been evidenced for centuries. In the 19^th century there were several notable attempts to create communities of unity. Each of those communities were separate from the larger society though, so that sense of unity of connection did not translate to the larger culture. In the 20^th century, there arose other attempts to form community that did not either create a sense of unity in the members or had leaders that did not protect the lives of all the people. It feels to me that this deep craving for living in connection with others is unity is a core remembrance of the human species of the time when we lived in unity with all life and with the eternal. We would not have that longing, that craving, if that experience had not existed in the history of humanity. It persists because we crave to be in connection with others and with the eternal in a field of unity.

In this century, we are searching for ways to be in connection with other humans, with all life and with the eternal. One word that is used to express an experienced connection with another is the word empathy.

“Empathy is the glue of connection under all conditions and all circumstances. Empathy is the tether between all life that has life be alive and vital. It is also what protects the species from extinction. Ask any good therapist. When a person can be comforted in times of anguish, their system returns from a traumatizing experience faster. This is empathy. It doesn’t matter if it is called sympathy or compassion. We are reclaiming the word empathy through our craving to be able to be connected to the unity of life again.” Tantra Maat

Some of us are called an Empath. That’s a title that refers to our ability to recognize another’s experience physically, mentally, spiritually etc. There are many kinds of Empaths. Being an Empath does not mean that you act on that awareness, it just means that that specific sensitivity of awareness is a capability that you carry. It does not mean that you make an active Empathic Response. Empathy is the activity of awareness of connection. Your Empathic response is the action that you take when you have experienced Empathy.

Now, because we all connected, it feels like we have an empathic response when we experience compassion or sympathy. We say that we pray for another or that we are holding them. Given those statements, it seems that we are more compassionate that we are active in response. What would it be if, when sensing this compassion for a state of another, we chose to take action that was life-enhancing or life-generating for another? Perhaps it is a physical action like protecting someone from injury or trauma or assisting them in healing. The stories about sick animals being helped by volunteers are good examples of Empathy and Empathic Response. The volunteer recognizes that the animal is in a trauma situation. They take action to care for the animal until they are safe and healed. That is a in-the-world empathic response.

What if your Empathic Response is more in the energetic realms? I sometimes image that my intention/prayer goes up into the Eternal/God/Goddess and then light/healing energy comes down from the Eternal onto the person bringing them peace, healing, etc. what I want for them or what they have asked for.

We are one. We are interconnected with all life whether we consciously recognize that or not. Think about it. Sense in yourself what are your registers for Empathy in your body, in your energetic field? What have been your Empathic Responses? These are actions that you take that acknowledges your interconnection with others. These are always something life-enhancing, life-generating. We are one Human Soul. What we do for another we do for the whole of us. Make your Empathic Responses life-enhancing, life-generating for your fellow Spirits in the One Human Soul.

How Does Your Sentient Intelligence Inform You? By Liz Geyer

creation Awakening, capacity, community, connection, consciousness, Emotions, Exploration, interdependent, interrelated, Liz Geyer, neuroplasticity, Perception imagination, sensations, sentient intelligence 0

Since you began to write the Creation Exercises, you have been learning more about your sentient intelligence. Did you know that the registers for your sentient knowing can now change, and how you are accessing your sentient knowing is changing? This is fascinating! I had always thought that once I tapped into my sentient knowing with certain registers, that I would use these registers over and over, yet I am finding my registers are shifting and changing, and deepening with time and experience. I have been paying attention to knowing the registers for what is life enhancing and life generating, and I am noticing these registers now change over time. As I have moved through recursions, different registers are created. And…life is becoming more fascinating as I am paying closer attention to connections through sentient registers.

An example of this could be an experience I had in my spheres course this week. A young man, who was teaching us about paying attention to what happened after transmitting a message about whales into his sphere, explained that he used a negative experience to share with a whale through his transmission, that he would do everything he could to save the whales, so that they could live in safety and grace. Soon after my class, three pieces of information about whales popped up in my field. I happened to scroll through Facebook and found a video of a female scientist who was saved from a shark attack by a whale. The video showed her experience with the whale. Then today, I was looking at what was new at Disney World. The animal kingdom park showed some artists sculpting a sand sculpture of whales that lies at the entrance of a new part of the park where you can learn all about whales! Then, Disney just completed a full length movie about whales, and it may be up now on Disney Plus to view. Up until earlier this week, I hadn’t been paying attention to whales. Then, I became connected with this sphere operator who speaks about his experiences with whales. My sentient antenna was in his field, and now…information about whales is popping up everywhere! I am pinged in a big way to pay attention to my sentient knowing…the body is resonant…my solar plexus is vibrating. The body is telling me to pay attention. This…is…so…fun!

Let’s get practical for a minute, and revisit the definition for sentient intelligence. Having this definition in front of me helps give me some context for what I am experiencing at this time. This is the definition that we use in the Field of Tantra Maat.

“Sentient Intelligence: The resonant language of creation that bonds all that exists into one cohesive whole. This is the intelligence when picked up on allows all of life to be a sensual, engaging, vital, and connected experience. Experienced as sensations, sensitivity, emotions, or energies running thru you, imagination, words popping into your head. It is an internal communication system.”

What are your registers for your sentient intelligence? How do you access your sentient registers? How do they change over time? What does that mean to you as they change? Why is it important to ponder this? Why is it important to me? In a recent conversation with friends, Maru said, “I have new registers,and they are different from ones I had before. I don’t know what they mean, but I know I need to pay attention to them.” This recursion…this state…the shifting of our being is happening in all of us, so why are we paying attention? In this recent conversation happening with our community of friends, we all seem to be pondering these questions, knowing they are important, knowing we are deepening something, even though we do not know what…yet isn’t it fun to be in the wondering?!!! Also during our conversation, we were present to knowing sentient registers through sound; i.e. music, drums, electronic vibrations, solfeggio tones,etc; written language of a story that opens us up into more; research we read on various topics; movement- access through the vibration and movement of the body; visual imagery, form, color, and kinesthetic action of placing color to paper; or creating art through various other mediums, such as embroidery or knitting; geopathic access through the vibration of the cells in the body.

I don’t know about you, but I am now in a place where there is nothing to do BUT to pay attention and be with these shifts in my being. Today, as I was moving through how to write this blog, I was present to energy running up and down my legs, through my arms, up to my solar plexus. I have never felt energy running through me this way before. I felt as though I was in the middle of a tide pool, with the body spinning. The energy began to swirl in a spiral in the solar plexus, and I had to just sit in my chair and be with it. I was drinking something with magnesium in it, and hoped in a bit of time the body would slow. At the same time, I couldn’t think straight, nor could I take in what anyone was talking about. I couldn’t comprehend the language being spoken. It truly jarred me. I wondered if I was going mad for a moment. My logical mind tells me it is a recalibration. Yes, I could not ignore the shift the body was in, and I knew I had to pay attention, and had to sit with the body as it moved my spirit/soul/being through…I don’t know what…it was some-thing! Is this a new register? Well…I suppose so…a significant “recursion register”, I will now name it as I write! No, it is not caffeine (I only had 1/4 cup this morning!) No, it is not the new greens supplement I ingested. Boy is it powerful! In this particular “recursion register”, I can now say, the register was very physical, with emotion certainly running through the body as well.

Because of these amazing conversations we have been in, we are excited to continue the discussion to deepen our sentient intelligence, and we want to share in this conversation with all of you and your sentient wisdom! We are offering this opportunity for all of you to join us to be part of this conversation on sentient intelligence. What we are experiencing in life and in our body and being is changing now…how we’ve known our sentient intelligence has shifted, and we can’t wait to learn more to deepen our Being! Join us on May 12th for a conversation of our sentient knowing now, and the new registers we are all experiencing!
