My Peace Zone: The Most Valuable Real Estate on the Planet

My Peace Zone: The Most Valuable Real Estate on the Planet

Carroll J. Wright, Ph.D.


This place we have now is not imagination. This is not grief or joy. Not a judging state, nor an elation or sadness. Those come and go. This is the presence that doesn’t. What else could human beings want? When grapes turn to wine, they’re wanting This. When the nightssky pours by, its really a crowd of beggars, and they all want some of This! This that we are now created the body, cell by cell, like bees building a honeycomb. The human body and the universe grew from This, not This from the universe and the human body.
Rumi

What is the most valuable piece of real estate on the planet?

What is the most valuable piece of real estate on the planet today? Is it Manhattan, or the Riviera? In the world of consensual reality, perhaps; in the world of non-consensual reality, no. I want to propose to you that you are the potential owner of the most valuable non-consensual piece of real estate on the planet, and that you may not know it.
This most valuable piece of real estate has certain qualities about it so that you could, with proper attention, recognize it and claim it as your own. I am arguing that this real estate is real, that it is recognizable and that you do have access to it, but you may have overlooked it, probably, at least 98% of the time.

The piece of real estate I am talking about is more valuable than a mile square piece of land such as Manhattan, although less tangible. Tangibility is not the only criteria for value. This intangible real estate is located somewhere in the region of your body and consciousness. If you study the anatomy of it, you might have trouble locating it, although one early scientist, Rene Descartes, said that it could be located through the pineal gland. This invaluable piece of real estate came with you but you didn’t notice it because of its intangibility. Some real estate is more like intellectual property, such as a song you wrote or a concept you developed. Or like what is called noospheric property on the internet. We are talking here about metaphysical property.

No one is really squabbling over this particular asset because very few know where it is or how to tap its riches. I want you to explore with me the location of this most valuable piece of real estate in existence. I maintain that this place exists and that its existence is denoted by brainwaves. The brain waves called "Alpha" were the first discovered around 1908, by an Austrian psychiatrist named Hans Berger, who began to measure Alpha/Theta brain waves as a state of mind.[1] A “state” is a place, isn’t it, even if it is a state of mind? I am not saying that the brain is the most valuable piece of real estate in the non-consensual world. Alpha/Theta waves do not measure the brain itself, but a particular quality of brain waves created by the mind through the brain.

For something to be valuable it has to be valued. Even though this particular real estate is the most valuable, it may be the least valued by most people. So this value is not because of its popularity but because of its inherent nature. This particular kind of property will never be the most agreed upon value because (1) it is intangible, and (2) because it is something that you must explore and discover, and (3) because it is something you choose to make valuable by and to yourself. The value of this particular place is not discoverable by anyone else. Each person has to become a Columbus and discover for himself his own most valuable real estate on the planet.

This particular real estate is not valuable because of its scarcity, like most other things of value. There is no scarcity about this particular piece of real estate. Nor can you obtain this real estate through a purchase because it cannot be bought or sold. This kind of property can only be ignored or claimed. Claiming this property does not mean that it has to be recorded in the courthouse. Nor is it something that you can show off like a new house or a new car.

You can’t say that this piece of property costs $430 million dollars or something, because it is a gift. Its value is to you and secondarily to those around you. Whoever discovers this property will not die a pauper. This particular property makes anyone rich. This property is not owned because of an inheritance from one’s family. This kind of inheritance is for everyone for the taking. The value of this property is due to its universality, and yet also to its uniqueness. This is the only kind of property in the world which is both universal and uniquely personal. I hope that I have built up your interest and suspense so that you wondering what this property is, why it is so valuable, where it is located and how to acquire it. The acquisition of this property depends entirely upon your willingness or unwillingness, your awareness or ignorance. It does not depend on factors such as those involved with the acquisition of physical properties: money, timing, and availability.

However, you do need to know that it exists, what its characteristics are, how to find it, and how to claim it permanently, which is the purpose of this article.

This metaphysical property is a place through which we can access and enter the Fourth Dimension. In other times it may have been called the Heart or the Soul. Media-wise, it may be called Stargate or the Land of Oz. Scientifically it has been called the Alpha/Theta rhythm, autogenics, or nonlocal intelligence. For our purposes here, we call this place our Alpha/Theta Space. This Alpha/Theta Space can be measured with brain-wave instruments and it vibrates at around 7-13 waves per second, which is at about half the rate of our normal state of mind, which is called Beta, which vibrates at 14 and above. The Alpha/Theta Space is considered to be the way we function in the right hemisphere of the brain, symbolic of our more feminine side: our creativity, our intuition, our imagination. I define the Alpha/Theta Space as the place where we enter into the realm of infinite potentiality and perfect awareness.

Hans Berger discovered that Alpha/Theta waves were uncommon in anxious people, and that if an anxious person did have a few Alpha/Theta waves, they were smaller than usual (a weaker signal with less amplitude). After he published his findings in 1918, interest in electrical waves in the brain spread rapidly around the world. Early scientists mapped out the different types of brain waves (Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta, and Gamma), and began to do psychophysical studies on the "natural reactivity" of these brain waves to sensory stimulation. None of these early investigators (pre-1962) ever imagined that people could learn voluntary control of their own brain waves, which were thought to be exclusively an autonomic function. Since the early discovery by Hans Berger, hundreds of scientists have researched brain waves, along with the application of this knowledge to kinesiology and biofeedback. Kinesiologists have located and defined several EEG brain wave cycles which look like this:

In addition to these five classical brain wave states, there is also GAMMA[2], the range of which extends from 30 Hertz up into the hundredths of hertz, a state of hyperawareness.
In sleep we go to Alpha/Thetaland every night and even deeper, but if we go much deeper we fall asleep. The Alpha/Theta State is wakeful alertness without thought. In other words, the ego and all of its usual fear-based control functions are set aside. I believe that this state of relaxation, peacefulness, serenity, creativity, openness, clarity, calmness, and receptivity is the doorway to the Fourth Dimension of infinite potentiality and unlimited possibilities. Alpha/Theta has been called relaxation, serenity, prayer, meditation, the pause that refreshes. It is wordless prayer, silence, and receptive awareness.[3]

To begin to get in touch with this most valuable place, recall a time when you were walking in the woods or watching a sunset (nature functions at 8 waves per second).[4] Recall a time when you felt that all is right with the world for no particular reason. Recall a time when you waked in the middle of the night and felt very calm and relaxed, with no worries on your mind. Recall a time when you forgave yourself or someone else and the relief and calmness that followed. Imagine the stillness in the center of a cyclone. Recall the moment after an orgasm. Recall the hypnogogic and the hypnopompic states of drowsiness just before falling asleep or just after awakening. Recall the calm feeling when listening to classical music. Recall the quieting energy of petting your cat or dog, or holding a sleeping baby. Recall riding down a peaceful country road, or feeling full after a nice meal. Recall a time when you felt worshipful, thankful, surrendered to the divine will. These experiences may help you to recognize what the Alpha/Theta State feels like, although not nearly as deeply as you are capable of through conscious practice.

You don’t have to go on vacation, get a raise, score, win someone’s approval and love, get even, retire or win the state tournament to relax. 9.7 minutes from now your can be in heavenly relaxation, without being attached to anything, indebted to anyone, or fearful of it being taken away from you. You don’t need to get drunk, get high on drugs, take medication, win a battle, be right, or wait until you die. Whatever your external situation, or wherever you are, you can access this marvelous experience without cost, without sacrifice, without a prescription, without obligation, without side affects, without anyone’s permission or agreement. It is free, it is available, it is invaluable, it is healing, it is empowering, it is sacred, it is renewing. This experience does not depend on labels, and is not owned by science, religion, philosophy or any monopoly. The entire universal data bank is available here to you. All of God’s wisdom can be accessed here.

Every desire or dream you ever had is merely a poor reflection of your memory of this place in your deepest consciousness. Its what you have been searching for everywhere in the external world, and disappointed that you have found so little, so briefly, and so costly. This Alpha/Theta Space is the door through which you came from the Source.

Inventors, song writers, painters, artists, writers, hypnotists, healers, and other inspired persons draw upon this channel or portal, often unaware of its wider purpose. I am recommending that this Alpha/Theta Space become your background music, so to speak. Whatever you are doing in the foreground, this Alpha/Theta Space can be playing in the background, and can be accessed at any moment, even in an emergency. In order for this to happen, however, (1) you have to become aware of its existence, its texture, and its presence as foreground, (2) you have to take risks to discover this property, and (3) you have to practice using it. If you want to become an Olympic champion, a scientist, an accomplished artist or musician, a web designer, a physician, or even a decent bowler, you have to practice. You have to have talent, training and practice for anything worthwhile. This particular experience crosses all fields of human endeavor.

Having a name for this valuable place will help us to identify it, so I am calling it the Place of Peace or the Alpha/Theta Space. You may name it the Peaceful Valley, Paradise Found, the Clear Calm Place, the God Space, the Field of Infinite Good, My Healing Place, or any other name that feels right to you. One client of mine calls her Alpha/Theta Space by the name of “My Haven”. The important thing is that you discover this level of awareness and practice it often. If you jump from sleep (theta) to ordinary wakefulness (beta), you could whiz right past this invaluable Alpha/Theta State experience.

We have called this Peace Place by many awful names in the past such as the void, the emptiness, the lonely place, the desert, boredom, isolation, disillusionment, etc. We have failed to recognize the value of this deep silent place. However, Blaise Pascal, a mathematician in the 16 century made this cogent observation: All men's miseries derive from not being able to sit in a quiet room alone. And Franz Kafka went even further: It is not necessary that you leave the house. Remain at your table and listen. Do not even listen, only wait. Do not even wait ,just be wholly still and alone. The world will present itself to you for its unmasking, it can do no other, in ecstasy it will roll at your feet.

You can induce the Alpha/Theta State by doing several things (1) close your eyes, unless you are driving or in public (2) raise the focus of your eyes about 20-40 degrees above the horizon (3) take10 slow deep breaths, following the in and out breaths with your awareness (4) hum the Om[5] sound 10 times if that is appropriate (5) touch the index finger and thumb of your left hand together which will act as a signal to slow down, calm down, relax, breathe slowly, deeply and consciously. (6) Say to yourself “I am now in my God Space of absolute peace” (7) “I let go of all attachments, all resistances, all judgments and all opinions. There is nothing to fear here. This is the place of infinite possibilities and choices. All power, all love, all wisdom and all peace surround me. Here I experience surrender, trust, receptivity and renewal. Here I am born again. Here I am open to receive guidance, refreshment, renewal, and creative inspiration. I am resting. I am being healed. I am my real self. I have nothing to hide, nothing to protect, nothing to fear, nothing to prove.”

Are you willing to give 9.7 minutes per day (1% of your waking time) to anchor your Place of Peace? Considering that the average person gives 2-4 hours a day to television basically for the ego’s sake, can’t we give 9.7 minutes for the sake of our True Self? If you don’t anchor it now, you won’t be able to when you are in an emergency because you won’t even think of it, much less be proficient in locating it and using it. That 9.7 minutes per day will make all the rest of your time more useful and efficient. You will save earthly time by investing 9.7 minutes in this Eternity experience. Once you have anchored this place, you can go there any time for a minute or two, and later on it will become background music playing no matter what is going on in the foreground. You will become a person of peace, a healer with true spiritual power. You will understand what Jesus meant when he said “I give you my peace, not as the world giveth, ” because the world cannot give you the true power of peace.

As I write this on Christmas Eve, 2004, I can feel more clearly what the carols mean when they say “Silent Night, Holy Night” and “Peace on earth, good will to men.” I notice that the only two things that can keep us out of this Alpha/Theta State are our attachments and resistances. Just look and see what you are attached to and resistant about. Whatever that is, release it and you will be free to enter your Alpha/Theta State.
The Place of Peace is a timeless state where everything seems slow, but where things go fast, and where you make choices quickly - because there's a real absence of toxic emotions and other symptoms of disease, not just the physical ones but also the emotional and mental ones. This calm, clear place is an absence of pathology and immune dysfunction. When you’re in this deep silent space, you’re asymptomatic. The Alpha/Theta Space is a state, a context, a function…deeper than feelings or behavior. Feelings and behavior are indicators or symptoms of what state you are in. The Alpha/Theta State is a state of immunity, security, invulnerability, and reality. If there is not calmness and relaxation, something is wrong , there is some toxity and stress, something is spiritually abnormal.
In this Place of Peace you can turn any symptom into a symbol, any negative into a positive, any deficit into an asset, any problem into an opportunity, any hurt into healing, any question into an answer, any bondage into a choice, any loss into a gain, any fear into courage, any hatred into thanksgiving. All of these alchemical powers come with the knowledge of, and residence in, that Place of Peace. You don’t have to live in the chaos and insanity of egoland any longer. The Alpha/Theta is where Grace lives.

Payoffs and Costs Inquiry

To help you access your Place of Peace, you can do your psychological homework by analyzing the anxious mindset that usually controls our everyday beta functioning. Find out what your attachments and resistances are. Notice your fears, your symptoms, your problems, and you will find that every symptom, illness, or problem has both a payoff and a cost. We may say that we do not want a certain condition or problem, but that is not entirely true. We may not want the cost of the problem, but we do want the payoff. We may not want the pain, inconvenience, embarrassment or guilt for having the problem, but we unwittingly caused ourselves this problem for some good reason. Find out your paradox about this condition. Just relieving the symptom without addressing its cause is ineffective. That is why we say that we have mis-diagnosis and mis-treatment.

First, investigate.
Make a list of ten to twenty of the Costs of your condition, illness, symptom (it hurts, it keeps me from________, it means I have to go to the doctor, it costs money, it takes up my time, etc)

Once you have completed the Costs or disadvantages, then make an equally long list (ten to twenty) of the Payoffs or advantages of this condition.

It may take several attempts in some cases to make the list complete, but if you only do the Costs, then it will do no good.

If you can’t do this, you might as well forget the rest of this healing procedure. You might as well do what you usually do: complain, avoid, deny, get busy, see the doctor, blame someone else, take pills, get drunk, engage in other addictive solutions, go to bed, suffer through it, or hope for no repeat.

After you have completed the Investigative part of your healing work, proceed then to the second part, the Healing Action Protocol below.

Healing Action Protocol

While you are in your Alpha/Theta Space, investigate your attachments and resistances with the following Investigative Questions. Then take the following Positive Healing Actions.

Investigative questions:

Do I have ________________ (illness, sickness, virus, pain, stress) in any of my energy fields (conscious, subconscious, unconscious, etheric, aura, etc) or memories?

Positive Healing Actions:

I cancel___________________________in all of my energy fields
I let go of___________________________ in all of my energy fields
I release___________________________ in all of my energy fields
I remove___________________________ in all of my energy fields
I transform___________________________ in all of my energy fields

Investigative questions:

I am attached to the idea that________________
I am assuming that_______________________
I expect_________________________________
I am frustrated with the idea that_____________________
I am worried about_______________________________
I am anxious or fearful about the idea that____________________________
I am struggling with the idea that___________________________________
I am struggling with the conflict about______________________________
I resist the idea that___________________________________________

Positive Healing Actions:

What would my life be like if
I cancelled___________________________ in all of my energy fields
I let go of___________________________ in all of my energy fields
I released___________________________ in all of my energy fields
I removed___________________________ in all of my energy fields
I transformed___________________________ in all of my energy fields

If you do not feel relief from your condition or symptom, or if it recurs, repeat this procedure until you do. Three things have to happen here: (1) You have to see the condition and its cause, (2) you have to see and release your attachment and resistance, and (3) you have to get into the Alpha/Theta Space where the release can be made. This is scientific prayer and spiritual healing.

Once you have released this symptom and its payoffs, you have added more clarity to your Place of Peace. Then you can, if you wish, begin to imagine, visualize, request and choose other wants, wishes and goals. It is ineffective not to do your clearing and healing work first, however. The reason for this is that you have already embraced self-defeating programs which would offset any positive goals which are overlaid on top of such original fear-based programming.

As I have outlined in my previous writing, there are three rather general fear-based beliefs which seem to be involved in all ego level functioning: (1) the belief that “ I am alone” (2) the belief that “I am lacking” and (3) the belief that “I am stuck.” Unless these universally hypnotic programs are made conscious and released, we will continue to be a victim thereof, and it will be impossible not to have attachments and resistances. And then our goals, prayers and healing will be severely retarded and repetitive.

On a daily basis in our communications with people, seeking agreement is the main way that we try to attain the Alpha/Theta State. The problem is that usually in our communication with others, we go about trying to making agreements by dominance or submission. Honest real agreement is a rarity. Superficial agreement is typical. Superficial agreement is usually a win/lose proposition. To reach real agreement, each party has to give up their control agendas, their attachments and resistances, and play win/win. Failing this, our agreements usually do not get beyond our ego comfort zone level. Communication fails because at this superficial level, opinions and fears rule. Trying to build a comfort zone based upon superficial agreements and appeasement doesn’t work. On the beta level of the worldly mind there are thousands of opposites and opinions thereabout . Opposing survival strategies are at stake and conflict with one another and arguments ensue. We don’t like arguments and disagreements and so we seek superficial agreements, through either dominance or submissiveness, which later go sour and explode. Superficial agreement is the major way that people generally seek to reach a state of contentment or the ego comfort zone. Election debates are a prime example of trying to force agreement and the stress which results.

In beta level communication, agreement is often superficial and conflict can emerge any minute. Circumstances and other people are necessary components in the comfort zone level of ego functioning. In the Alpha/Theta Space, circumstances and other people are not determinative. In this Place of Peace you connect with yourself, God and the true Self of all others, but this agreement is more difficult to articulate. Internal agreement or consistency is an individual accomplishment. Alpha/Theta State agreement is the secret to inner power, wisdom and unconditional love. Consensus reality is not necessary in the Alpha/Theta State. Consensus reality is the matrix, the human way of perceiving, and that is why its comfort zone is so shaky and actually confining. You rarely find yourself or the truth in the comfort zone of consensus reality. When this type of agreement and communication utterly fails, and it will eventually, then we are ready for a New Discovery. We are ready to search in seriousness for the Peace. Eventually we become battle-weary in the world of opposites and begin to seek our sacred Self.

I invite you to join me in learning to discern the difference between the ego comfort zone and the Place of Peace. You may have received the idea that the place of peace and contentment exists, but you must find it for yourself if you would be healthy, wealthy and wise. Whatever you call this place, it will have to be your own personal discovery. No one can give it to you and no one can take it from you. I can give you some clues but you will have to verify them through your own conscious experience. I believe that the Alpha/Theta State is the entry way to our Source, to our original home. Beta stress is the exile we are now experiencing, a condition is which we are not at home.

And so, the Alpha/Theta State is a “paradise lost” for which we unwittingly search in various symptomatic and symbolic ways throughout out lives. There is no doubt in my mind that this is why people around the world move to the beaches and mountains to live and to retire. The unconscious search for the Alpha/Theta State is why we have such strong desires for vacations, and why we take mind-altering drugs in between. That is also why we are so addicted to every imaginable form of self-comforting substance and activity. All of these methods have their flaws and shortcomings, and these failures keep us motivated to find the real and enduring. 2004 has been a real icon breaker in this respect because of all of the floods, hurricanes and now the Tsunami earthquake destroying the beaches and island cities in many countries.

And so the search for the real comfort zone rages on in our unconscious outward searching ways.

Let us recall Yogananda’s poem and make just a few changes:

Where Shall We Hide the Truth From Man?

"Where shall we hide the truth (zone of peace) from man?"
The gods all cried when he was made.
"How can we guard our secret now?"
They asked each other most afraid.

"Hide it in the earth; he will mine it.
Hide it on a mountain; he will climb it.
Even in the sea he will find it.
Where shall we hide the truth (zone of peace) from man?"

Quite beside themselves, they cried:
"This little guy will take our throne.
We have made him far too smart
Not to claim our heaven home

Hide it in matter, he'll analyze it.
Hide it in the water, he'll crystallize it.
Even in hell, he'll surmise it.
Where shall we hide the truth (zone of peace) from man?"

They thought of stars in outer space
Or in the nature of a tree,
But they knew that man could solve
Each and every mystery.

"Hide it in the wind, he'll pursue it.
Hide it in an act, he will do it.
Even in an atom, he will view it.
Where shall we hide the truth (zone of peace) from man?"

Then they solved the mystery
Of how the frightened gods should win.
The wisest said, "Let's take the truth (zone of peace)
And hide it deep inside of him.

Hide it in his heart, he will doubt it
Hide it in his soul, he'll live without it
Even if we should reveal and shout it,
He won't believe the truth (zone of peace) is within him."

Mystics from all cultures, philosophies and religions have explored this dimension in their own prayers, worship and mediation practices.
This Zone of Peace was researched in the 20th century in terms of hypnosis, Transcendental Meditation, Silva Mind Control, altered states of consciousness, autogenics, progressive relaxation, paranormal psychology, Christian Science, the human potential movement, Arnold Mindell, Bayard Barnes’ Immunics, Greg Braden, and many others.

Many pioneers throughout history have contributed to our beginning understanding about the prime importance of this gift of the gods. I believe that this research has not reached its zenith by any means.

I sense that this God-Space within us is the source of all inspiration, creativity, healing, and wisdom. Certainly in such a time of pandemic health problems, environmental disasters, and rising health costs, spiritual healing will emerge as an unexpected plus for disillusioned human beings. But until this science is fully developed, only the adventurous and open-minded will risk the plunge necessary for true and total self-healing and enrichment. Symptoms, suffering, and a sense of mission are the chief motivators for such radical personal responsibility and spirituality.

Attachment or Resistance

"Suffering is exclusively the result of attachment or resistance, it is a sign of lacking readiness to go on, to flow with life."
Nisargadatta Maharaj

Ordinarily in our beta state we are attached or resistant. Attachment or resistance keep us out of our Place of Peace. Any time that you are uptight or upset, take a look and you will see that you are either attached to something or resistant toward something. If you let go of that attachment or that resistance (fear), you will experience the peace that moves you toward Alpha/Theta (peace).

You can either attach to everything or detach from everything, either one will get you to Alpha/Theta. But if you attach to some things and are resistant to others, you are not in Alpha/Theta or in peace. You can love everything totally and get there, or you can let go of everything, and get there, but you can’t mix the two and get there. What you already have in typical beta functioning is the messy mixture of attachment versus resistance, good versus evil. The most potent approach is to unconditionally love whatever is happening, and if you fail and get stuck in some judgment, forgive it, let it go. That will get you into the clear, calm place of peace.


Transpersonal psychotherapy helps us heal the blocking problem, which is our attachment to our ego or false self.
Charles L. Whitfield, M.D.

Nick Bunick, In God’s Truth, suggests the following forgiveness exercise which you can use to forgive and experience your Alpha/Theta State:

If there has ever been a time in your life when you expressed anger, and thought that you hurt another person, now is the time to forgive yourself and release that thought

If there has ever been a time in your life when you thought your took advantage of another, now is the time to release that mark on your soul, and forgive yourself

If there has ever been a time in your life when you criticized another and thought that you caused them pain, now is the time to forgive and release that critical thought

If there has ever been a time in your life when you showed a lack of patience toward another and in so doing left a judgment on your self, forgive that judgment

If there has ever been a time in your life when you committed an act of selfishness toward another, and thought that you hurt that other person, forgive yourself.

If there has ever been a time in your life when you were rude to another, forgive your rude judgments.

If there has ever been a time in your life when you acted with prejudice and caused another to stumble, forgive and release that prejudice.

If there has ever been a time in your life when you deceived another, and you saw that you caused it caused heartache to that other, forgive yourself.

If there has ever been a time in your life when you showed indifference and ungratefulness to another, forgive yourself now.

If there has ever been a time in your life when you showed fear and not courage, forgive your fearfulness

If there has ever been a time in your life when you were greedy, forgive that greediness
and release it from your mind and soul

If there has ever been a time in your life when you refused to be generous to someone, forgive yourself now of that stinginess.

Perhaps now is the time to release and forgive all of the hurt, blame, anger, and poisonous hatred that you may be feeling toward another for something they did or neglected to do. As you release all of your negativity toward others, you are also released from that same negativity toward yourself. Have you released all of the attachments and resistances which inhibit your peace, love, wisdom, health, abundance, power and creativity? Look and see, and if not, let them go now. Hum the Sha-lom until there is a release. If you can’t let it go now, practice coming back to your Alpha/Theta State until the release does occur. In the meantime, don’t feed the hurt and anger, unless you want them to grow. Remember that you are an infinite spiritual being and that you are not a victim of anything or anyone except your own thinking.

EGO FOOD

We either feed the ego or we feed the true self. We feed either war or peace. We stick ourselves further into beta or we release ourselves more and more into Alpha/Theta. Look and see how you feed your ego. What is your favorite ego food? How do you feed your story, your illusions, your false self? Do you keep incessantly busy? Do you play “Poor Me” or “Ain’t It Awful”? Do you judge, complain and criticize? Do you indulge yourself in some addictive behavior? Do you overeat, overspend, over-excite yourself?

Unwittingly, we have been building and feeding our ego story for years and starving ourselves spiritually. Living unconsciously is feeding the ego. The only way we can feed ourselves spiritually is by conscious choice. Otherwise, it isn’t going to happen. The ego is a creature of habit, an emotional robot. The ego is a trance, a matrix. The ego is programmed up to 99%.

Are you taking responsibility for your spiritual awareness? How do you do that? What I am proposing here is that you can choose to be spiritually aware while you are driving, while you are eating, while your are working, while you are talking with people, while you are playing, and while you are sleeping. Spiritual awareness is not something you do just while reading a spiritual book, meditating, or saying a prayer. If God is all there is, then you can choose to be aware of God and Self at all times. Paul talked about ceaseless prayer. Certainly that does not mean talking ceaselessly. To me it means a kind of awareness, a sense of intimacy, a state of being. Through practice, we can begin to live in the Alpha/Theta State more regularly and continuously.

Self-Testing


Self-testing is a method of finding out if you are in Alpha/Theta and getting things done while in Alpha/Theta. How do you self-test? Breathe deeply a few times and relax. Place your hands loosely in your lap. Wait for a slight body signal, twitch, movement, temperature change, feeling, etc. This signal means “yes.” No signal means “no.”

Self-testing is a part of awareness. Ask yourself “Am I in Alpha/Theta” and wait for a response. Am I in touch with God? Test it. Shall I try to fix the sink? Test it. Are my lost keys in the house? Test it. Can this cold be healed? Test it. Is this choice appropriate? Test it. Is there another choice? Test it. Shall I use this next 10 minutes calling John? Test it. Is my immune system totally healthy? Test it. If not, say: I remove any pathologies from my immune system. Are they gone? Test it. Is this activity just ego food? Test it. Do I need to forgive someone or something? Test it. If so, I forgive this person, this thought, this judgment. Is it gone? Test it. I let go of my attachment to…….Is it gone? Test it. I let go of my fear of……..Is it gone? Test it. I let go of my ………virus. Is it gone? Test it. I remove my………..cancer. Is it gone? I remove my diabetes. Is it gone? Test it. I let go of my belief in scarcity. Is it gone? Test it. I let go of my anger or my jealousy. Is it gone? Test it.

Our chronic ego condition which we call “normality” is a low grade state of conflict and tension. We hardly recognize that the ego is in an assumed conflict with God and the Self until some incident occurs. We are usually made aware of this chronic condition by some remark or event of offense by another person. Some person or type of person is the trigger which suddenly lands us in a state of anxiety. This person should be thanked because otherwise we might never be given the opportunity to become aware of our condition. The counsel to “love your enemy” now becomes meaningful. Greedy people annoy me because they mirror my own denied greediness. I am thankful to them for reminding me that I still believe in lack.

Some quotes from Rumi are appropriate here:

Essence is emptiness. Everything else, accidental. Emptiness brings peace to loving. Everything else, disease. In this world of trickery emptiness is what you soul wants.
Rumi

For sixty years I have been forgetful every moment, but not for a second has this flowing toward me stopped or slowed. I deserve nothing. Today I recognize that I am the guest the mystics talk about. UI play this living music for my Host. Everything today is for the Host.
Rumi

Don’t grieve. Anything you lose comes back in another form. The child weaned from mother’s milk now drinks wine and honey mixed.
Rumi

God is the secret of human beings and human beings are the secret of God
Sufi Saying

When we talk about God, it is like a school of fish discussing the possible existence of the sea!
Rumi

Be the Source, not the result
Rumi

Gamble everything for love. If you’re a true human being. If not. Leave this gathering.
Rumi

Those who don’t feel this love pulling them like a river, those who don’t drink dawn like a cup of spring water, or take in sunset like a supper, those who don’t want to change, let them sleep
Rumi

You’ve gotten drunk on so many kinds of wine.
Taste this. It won’t make you wild. Its fire. Give up, if you don’t understand by this time that your living is firewood.
Rumi

We have no idea what we are.
Rumi

What strange beings we are! That sitting in hell at the bottom of the dark, we’re afraid of our own immortality
Rumi
In 1989, Peniston and Kulkosky reported a stunning research result in which stage 4 alcoholism (with a long-term history of treatment failure) was essentially fully remediated in some Vietnam veterans by a treatment program which included Alpha/Theta training as a primary component. This result was so incredible that initially it was given essentially no credence by the scientific community. What is most striking is the fact that these early results have held up in follow-up over the subsequent ten years, which takes us up to the present. The work has also been replicated in a number of other studies, and has been extended to other drugs of choice. Together, these results are giving rise to a reappraisal of Alpha/Theta training, now called Alpha/Theta-theta training because of the inclusion of even lower frequencies in the reward, namely the theta region of frequencies (4-8 Hertz).
It has become clear that this work is best seen as a treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which was sustaining the addiction in these particular Vietnam veterans. But the word treatment is inappropriate. The person undergoing the feedback is the only active agent in everything that happens in biofeedback! There really is no treatment here. Rather, what is accomplished is that the person is guided to a comfortable, comforting state of his body-mind in which true healing the healing of psychic wounds can take place. Biofeedback training simply aided in movement toward that healing opportunity.



Emma Curtis Hopkins speaks of claiming your “noble city” (perhaps similar to the Alpha State) by opening the 12 gates of your mind:
1. There is good for me. My good is my God, my life, my truth, my love, my substance, my intelligence, omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient.
2. There is no mixture of evil in my good. There is no opposition to my God as material conditions of any kind. There is no absence of life, substance, intelligence. There is nothing to hate. There is no presence of sin, sickness or death in my world, where God is the only presence and power and wisdom.
3. God is all. God is the omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient good, as life, truth, love, substance, intelligence. I am my own idea of God, and I live and move and have my being according to my idea of God. I am spirit, mind, like my God, and shed abroad wisdom, strength, holiness. My God works through me to will and to do that which ought to be done by me. I am governed by the true God and am kept from sin, from suffering for sin, and I cannot fear, sin, sickness, or death.
4. I do believe that the true God is now working with me and through me and by me and for me, to make me a living demonstration of omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient goodness.
5. As spirit I can preach the gospel, heal the sick, cast out demons, raise the dead.
6. I understand the secret of instantaneous demonstration.
7. I hold no accusations against the people of God. I do not believe in lustful passions or sensual appetites. I believe that all these are the hunger and thirst after righteousness, given a false name.
8. I do not accuse the people of God of deceiving each other or of being deceived. There is no opposition to truth.
9. I do not accuse the people of God of being sinners. It is true that all things were made by the true God and now are very good.
10. I do not believe in a mixture of good and evil in the universe. I stand to my confidence that all is good. All is good in truth. According to my faith so it is now unto me and unto those about me.
11. I can not admit that there is any foolishness or ignorance or weakness or old age failure in omnipresence, omnipotence, omniscience. There is but one mind, and that is God—one substance, and that is God.
12. The white soul of every creature stands out ransomed from sin, death, and sorrow by words of truth. The whole world is awake to righteousness. Time is no more. All is well now.

Hopkins summarizes that this truth was lived by Jesus Christ. This is the truth Jesus Christ still lives. This is the truth everlasting. Do you not know that this truth is Jesus Christ in you? Do you not know that when you speak this truth, it is Jesus Christ opening the gates of glory for your world? The kingdom of God is within us all now.

Make Alpha/Theta Your Top Priority
.

We choose our priorities, by default or by conscious awareness. But why, if we knew about Alpha/Theta, would we not choose Alpha/Theta first, in every case? Otherwise, we just react according to the ego’s programming and “reasoning.”

The clue to our need for Alpha/Theta is any kind of concern, worry, indecision, fear or upset. “I am never upset for the reason I think” is the watchword we must use. We are always upset because of either attachment or resistance, which keeps us out of Alpha/Theta, and can be perceived as a call to utilize Alpha/Theta. Attachment Analysis and Resistance Analysis reveal what we are upset about. It is either what we like or dislike, want or don’t want, desire or fear, cling to or avoid.

Look and see what belief you are attached to or resistant toward. Then you can decide if you want to continue your distress or let go of its cause. If you decide to let go of the culprit belief, you can enter into the Place of Peace. That is, if you want to make the best decision, if you want to make the healthiest choice, if you want divine guidance, if you want to see all of your possibilities, if you want to arouse your potentialities. When you go through the process of letting go of whatever keeps you attached or resistant, you move closer to Alpha/Theta, the place of infinite possibilities.

We have at last reached the point in human evolution where science and spirituality have conjointly identified and defined what we may call a location where Eternity touches time, where the Infinite touches the finite, where the Unlimited touches the finite, where the Unconditional touches the conditional. This place is denoted by a dramatic change in the brain wave pattern, a noticeable sense of relaxation, a calmness and clarity of perception, a feeling of being present, an absence of stress and pressure. With practice, some practitioners are able to move to the Alpha/Theta/theta border, where there is an even greater access to creativity, healing, insight, guidance, and a new quality of energy.

Perhaps then if there is a science of prayer, a science of healing, a science of decision-making, a science of possibilities, this is it. Perhaps this place is as far as science can go, but it is a launching pad, a place where knowledge meets mystery, where the known meets the unknown. Not my will but thine be done.

This experience we have now is not imagination. This is not grief or joy. Not a judging state, or an elation or sadness. Those come and go. This is the presence that doesn’t. What else could human beings want? When grapes turn to wine, they’re wanting This. When the nightssky pours by, its really a crowd of beggars, and they all want some of This! This that we are now created the body, cell by cell, like bees building a honeycomb. The human body and the universe grew from This, not This from the universe and the human body.
Rumi
Some of the more mystical disciplines have named this place the cave of the heart. Popular slang says to be cool, be mellow, chill out.

Cues to the Alpha/Theta State Experience

Breathing Cues
Try this Alpha/Theta Brain Waves Exercise:
Step 1: Take a deep breath and hold it.
Step 2: Sense your heartbeat without your hands.
Do step 1 & 2 again, only know – 3 heartbeats between each exhalation/inhalation.
Once you feel a calm...quiet tranquil state...That’s The Alpha/Theta Brain wave state! Congratulations! Your mind power is enhanced, you can learn faster and do many other things more efficiently and effectively. .
In summation...The brain is a powerful tool. It pays to learn how to use it. The human mind is a bridge to the infinite power of your most fundamental spiritual resources. Practicing entering the Alpha State can connect you with God’s power to heal your diseases, and connect you with wisdom and creativity.
Sometimes I like to call my Place of Peace by the name of HereNow. It is more like cyberspace, a radio station frequency, an email address, or virtual reality than it is like a physical location. HereNow is where the finite touches the infinite, where Eternity engages with time. The Alpha/Theta State may well be one of the chief entrances to HereNow, or the Eternal in time. The brain is the physical location, the mind is the spiritual force, and the Alpha/Theta brain wave is the virtual reality place located between the two. The Alpha/Theta Space is the Stargate through which you enter a different dimension, the dimension of the infinite. The brain is a 3-D phenomena (time, space and matter), the Alpha/Theta State is a 4-D phenomena (metaphysical), and the infinite world is 5-D and beyond. 4-D may register in the Gamma brain wave range of 40 to 200 Hz, and 5-D may not register at all.

HereNow is a name I like for the Alpha/Theta Space. HereNow means Alpha/Theta is always here and now; it is where the finite touches the infinite. Alpha/Theta was contacted in ancient times partially by the structure of the temple or pyramid in which altars of worship were contained. I visited one Lutheran church in Northridge California which was an exact copy of the shape of the Egyptian pyramids. This shape created the Alpha/Theta experience just by walking into the church. Certain types of structures, prayers, worship, music, and scripture arouse and encourage entrance into the Alpha/Theta state.

I am the owner of the most valuable piece of real estate on the planet for me. This value is not merely monetary, but includes every conceivable human value, including finances, emotions, mindset, security, health, happiness, creativity and pleasure.

Three steps in the Alpha/Theta experience: psychological analysis, meditative preparation and spiritual awareness practice.

Several things I do to enhance my Alpha/Theta experience:

1. I have several CD’s that induce the Alpha/Theta awareness, and I play these at home and in the car, as background and foreground because they infiltrate the atmosphere and set a tone for my optimal functioning. 2. I try to reduce the amount of junk noise, junk food and junk thinking in my daily diet. 3. When I am feeling drawn towards some self-comforting addictive solution, I switch to the Alpha/Theta experience, realizing that is what I really want anyway. Once I have reached the stage of peaceful Alpha/Theta awareness, then I get clear on my real agenda. I focus upon the things that I need to do or to realize. I do my healing of myself and others. I set goals. I seek inspiration. I say “I and my father are one” and “My father doeth the work.” In my Alpha/Theta State I say “God is my health, God is my peace, God is my power, God is my truth, God is my prosperity, God is my security, God is my provision, God is my prosperity, God is my security, God is my provision, God is my creativity, and God is my pleasure.”

I remind myself of the fact that there are infinite possibilities here, coupled with infinite potentialities. I set no limits. I cling to no desires or resistances. In this Alpha/Theta State, I transform boredom into interest. I transform fear into courage, anxiety into peace, loneliness into solitude, codependency into oneness in God. I affirm that nothing can defeat me, discourage me, weaken me, deter me, distract me, hurt me. I affirm that I am immune to every disease, infection, allergy and fear. I affirm that I am overflowing with energy, time, peace, love, and purpose. There is provision of and abundance of whatever I need or want. In this mindset, I am taught by the Holy Spirit, nurtured by the Holy Spirit, empowered by the Holy Spirit, guided by the Holy Spirit, supported by the Holy Spirit in all that I think, say and do, in all of my work and play. I do not have to worry about what others do or do not do. God is working through me to do what I need to do, am designed to do, and am called to do.

A Holy Man on the Beach

The following website http://www.invinciblemusic.com/Gregorian_Chant_1.htm features a beach scene with waves breaking visually and sound-wise, with Gregorian chants. Click on the free recording located at this web address as a meditation background for this visualization.

Imagine that you are at the beach. You are relaxing, enjoying the sound of the waves with the sound of chanting in the background. You relax deeply into this feast of sound and beauty. You breathe in the calmness, rhythm, and warmth of this peaceful experience. Looking far up the beach you see a figure walking along the water’s edge, moving slowly toward you. You see that this figure is Jesus. As he draws closer, you silently welcome his presence. You feel a lightness and peacefulness surrounding you as he sits down beside you, facing the sea. The aura of his presence fills the area. You sense a soft glowing golden ball of light in the center of your forehead. This golden light slowly expands throughout your body. You relax more and more deeply into the healing power of this glowing light. Now the light expands again to include the entire beach scene. You relax even more deeply into this living light. The words “ My peace I give unto you” take you more and more deeply into relaxation and contentment. Allow yourself to bask in this peacefulness for as long as it lasts.

"People are like stained glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within."
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross

What Do You Want?

A most important question for obtaining the Alpha/Theta State and its healing power is to ask “What do you want?” Make a list of all that you want, a longer list than you have ever dared to make before. A list of 25 wants, or maybe even 50 or 100. Don’t limit yourself to being practical or realistic. List all your wants whether they seem attainable or not. Be sure you don’t just list or settle for what you think you should want, or that you are allowed to desire. Now relax. Don’t let your mind begin to complain because you don’t have them. Just enjoy recognizing these wants and admitting them to yourself.

Now, what do all of these desires amount to? Can you reduce all these wantings to one most basic want? Take your time. What do all of these wants really amount to? . Now when you reach that point of realizing what that one most basic want is, notice how you feel. Now you are possibly in the Alpha/Theta State. You are probably entering into the state of spiritual awareness and selfhood. In this state all of these wants are becoming yours because you are now entering the state of unlimited, timeless, awareness. The only things that block you from this unlimited, timeless state are any fearful, toxic, or confused attachments or resistances. You can let go of these, remove them, cast them out, by clearly and boldly saying “I remove this ……(condition) now, I let go of this……(problem) now, I release myself from this……(virus or allergy) now.”
One of the most powerful statements of such release is “In the name of the peace of Jesus Christ, I forgive this……, I let go of this…….I claim this…….I affirm that…….
Do a self-test and see if you get a confirmation.
The Toxicity of Attachments
Whatever you are attached to, addicted to, clinging to, dependent upon, compulsively drawn toward, or in love with…..is a finite representation or symptom of, an invisible essence. Whatever finite thing or relationship you think you want, need, or desire, it is symbolic of the infinite. That finite attachment must be released and transformed into its infinite essence. As a finite attachment, it eventually becomes binding, limiting, frustrating and toxic, and it appears in the body and social environment as a symptom. Anxiety is the chief symptom in human experience. If the anxiety symptom is not addressed and used for personal transformation, it then becomes more physical. Look at the physical problems in your body and environment and you will see how this anxiety has become somatized, physicalized, and socialized: your car breaks down, your child gets the flu, the IRS calls you, an uncle dies, your dog gets run over, your team loses, you lose your cell phone, your printer won’t work, bad weather causes work loss, a check bounces, someone rear-ends you, etc, etc, etc. All of the negativity and confusion in our consciousness, unless cleared up, produces concrete effects in our environment, body and experience. Likewise, positivity in our consciousness, unless interrupted, produces health, wealth, wisdom and flow in our daily experience. Wouldn’t it be worth our time and effort to discover and practice the conscious and regular use of our Alpha Zone?



The biblical understanding of Shalom, the Hebrew word for peace, is more than the absence of conflict but everything that makes for people's highest good. It works toward hope and wholeness in which people individually and collectively experience health, prosperity, security, oneness with nature, and spiritual renewal.

Am I saying this is the only way? I have no intention to even suggest that we can limit God.
But I will say that the ego is a copycat of the real thing, and this is called hypocrisy. You can mimic the real thing in beta, but in Alpha/Theta mimicking is not necessary. Peace in beta is more like peace-versus-war; peace in alpha has no opposite. Serenity is a very high vibratory state of being. Without serenity, contentment and ecstasy will not occur on any
consistent basis. In the ego story it is war-versus-peace, and pleasure-versus-pain.

The body is 70-75% water. Water crystals are shaped by sound, thoughts, pictures and pollution, as Dr. Masaru Emoto has demonstrated. Proper sound and nutrients double the productivity of crops, according to Don Carlson. The body requires 80% alkaline, but the following things incite acid: stress and worry, sugar, nicotine, caffeine, prescription drugs, smoking, drinking, junk food, street drugs, soda pop, smog, carbon dioxide, noise, lack of sleep, etc. Certain foods, herbs, fruit juices, and essential oils produce more oxygen, alkaline and balance in the body’s immune system. Oxygen from exercise and proper breathing put a positive spin on the body’s water and alkaline content. Alkaline water filtering systems also put a positive spin on the body’s cells. Reference a picture of how plants respond to classical music.

Acid-Alkaline Balance: Key Indicator of Healthby G. Kumar
The average 20th century diet, stress, lifestyle and environment produce far more acid than is healthy. The human body is alkaline by design and acidic by function, which means that your body's health is dependent upon it being alkaline.
The original source of stress is known as a stressor. Most of the stressors in today’s society (cigarette smoke, alcohol, stress, junk food, coffee, sodas, pharmaceuticals, sugar, meat) all produce an acid state in the body. All cancerous states are acid states of long duration. Maximum health is in an alkaline body.
Research indicates that 90% of our general population is far too acidic, which leads to a variety of negative health effects. Over time, being acidic is the main cause of degenerative diseases and aging. If you have an acidic body, you become mentally and physically exhausted, and you lose the radiance and shine of skin and hair.
The effects of having an alkaline body:
1) we are calm and collected 2) we have high energy level 3) our sleep patterns are deep 4) we have less colds and flu than normal 5) the immune system is fortified 6) the body has good absorption/assimilation/digestion.
Foods either leave an acid ash or an alkaline ash. Grains, sugar, dairy, animal or vegetarian protein and oils yield an acid ash while fruits, sea vegetables, vegetables, quality water and herbs yield an alkaline ash You should consume 20% of your food daily, by weight from the acid ash-forming foods and 80% , from the alkaline ash-forming foods.
Your pH (short for 'potential of Hydrogen') levels are a measure of the relative acidity or alkalinity of a solution. It is measured on a scale from 1 (extremely acidic) to 14 (extremely alkaline) with 7.0 being neutral. The middle of this line is 7, neutral. Quality water has a pH of 7 and you should maintain this level. It is ideal to incorporate 2 glasses of lime juice along with the 8-12 glasses of water which is taken daily . A diet of 80% alkaline ash foods is ideal. We have to maintain this ratio - 80% alkalinity and 20% acidity for optimum health.

Whatever you put before peace destroys it. Whatever we put before the Place of Peace creates attachment and resistance, along with immunity-reducing acid. Put peace first and everything else second, or you will be into the peace-and-war opposites. The peace we are speaking about here has no opposite, only the appearance of an opposite. War, even though it is not real, affects the body, which is not real either, in the ultimate sense.

Seek first the Kingdom of Peace, the Place of Serenity and Calm, and all other things will be added unto you. The courageous Christ, the God-man, is the man of peace, the bridge between the finite and the infinite. Each one of us must become that because that is what we are. We are either ego or Christ, there is no other choice. Ego is unreal, Christ is real. So we have no reason to be ashamed of the Christ that we are, unless we prefer fantasy to reality. Of course, up until now that is what we have all done. We have been into peace-and-war; it is time that we choose the Place of Peace. Peace-versus-war is no choice at all, it is par for the course, it is and always has been, the status quo. The ego is a war-versus-peace machine.

The picture below is a photo of a molecule of water that reflected Japanese folk dance music.


Tap water in Shinagawa, Tokyo.
Same tap water with "Chi, Soul and Spirit" of 500 people.





Dr. Masaru Emoto, author of Messages from Water, has been able to further our understanding about water's caring and compassionate connection with us. By freezing water and taking pictures of the frozen water crystals that form, Dr. Emoto has been able to confirm his theory that while pure water becomes pure crystal, contaminated water may not crystallize at all or not as beautifully.
The implications of Dr. Emoto's work are profound and life-changing. For example, in one experiment, Dr. Emoto wrote to 500 instructors from all over Japan. He told them that he would be placing a cup of ordinary tap water on his desk at a specific date and time. He asked them to transmit their feelings to that water-to send "chi and soul" of love and the wish that the water should become clean. The before and after pictures (shown above) are truly remarkable. As you can see, the "before" photo of the tap water is a mess, whereas the "after" photo shows a gorgeous crystal. This is an amazing finding since the 500 people were not even in the same room, nor even in the same city. This demonstrates that people's thoughts can be gathered no matter how far apart they are. It confirms the power of thought and prayer and further suggests that perhaps we can purify ordinary tap water through our conscious thought and words.
Distilled water labelled "Do It".
Distilled water labelled "Let's Do It".
Dr. Emoto has further determined that the intention of words chosen are also extremely important. In another experiment he took a sample of distilled water, which he divided into two glass bottles. He pasted a typed paper on one bottle with the Japanese words, "Do It". On the other bottle he pasted the Japanese words, "Let's Do It". He left these words overnight and in the morning he froze the water and took the pictures of the crystals. As you can see in the photos above, the results were again quite dramatic. The more commanding words, "Do It", were clearly not responded to in as positive a way by the water as the more encouraging words, "Let's Do It". This suggests that we may wish to pay more attention to the way that we talk to each other and especially to our children.
Based upon these and many of his other equally dramatic findings with water, Dr. Emoto has several recommendations for creating a more peaceful life. For example, he suggests that we say words of appreciation, that we give greetings with a smile, that we pray and that we say blessings at meal time over our food and water. Furthermore, Dr. Emoto encourages us to take an early morning walk to awaken our immune system and to talk to and love nature. In addition, by walking on the ground in our bare feet, Dr. Emoto believes that we can eliminate the electromagnetic waves and static electricity that our bodies have accumulated. He also encourages us to review things in the shoes of others and to not accumulate negative feelings. Of course Dr. Emoto also recommends that we drink high-quality water. He feels that the best kind of water is when it tastes good and sweet.
Breathing is a kind of self-care ritual that you can do quickly, quietly, privately, anywhere, any time.

Deep, abdominal breathing is among the most powerful stress-reduction techniques ever devised. Used properly, it’s as effective as Valium and a whole lot faster. It only takes five or six deep breaths to begin reversing a tension spiral.

Psychiatrist Johannes Schultz used that simple fact to develop one of the most effective stress-reduction methods ever conceived. He found that by merely imagining your arms and legs becoming heavy, you could release most of your body’s tension and achieve a deep calm. The image of heaviness sends a message to your muscles to relax and let go.
In Autogenic Breathing, you use your imagination to create feelings of warmth and heaviness in your limbs. Let your mind travel to the warm beach, where the weight of the sand gently pressing on your arms and legs calms you and relaxes every muscle in your body.
Begin by taking some slow, deep breaths. Let them go way down into your abdomen. Allow the feeling of relaxation to deepen with each breath.
Now imagine you’re at the beach. You can see the seagulls wheeling overhead and you can hear their calls. The waves are rolling up the sand. The surf roars and then grows quiet, rushing in and then receding. Let yourself be lulled by the roar...quiet... roar of the waves.
Now feel the warm sand. Imagine it pleasantly covering your body. Feel the weight of the sand as it covers your arms and legs. Feel the comfort of its warmth. Warm and heavy. Let the feelings deepen for a while, clearly imagining the sand on your arms and legs. Warm and heavy.






The Highest Vibratory Frequency on the Planet

We all have available to us - within - a direct channel to the Highest Vibrational Frequency Range within The Illusion. That highest range involves consciousness of the Glory of ONENESS. It is called Cosmic Consciousness. It is called Christ Consciousness.
Robert Burney



I have no doubt that Jesus carries the highest vibratory frequency of any being on the planet. His life, his miracles, his teachings, his resurrection, and his power to uplift the entire mass of humanity are demonstrations of the unparalleled consciousness that he achieved. And if it is true that he has the highest energy frequency, why don’t we just go directly to that level? In the last few years there are more and more studies, biographies, paintings, revelations, and stories about his appearances among people of many cultures, nations and individuals. He has become the Cosmic Christ to a degree and in a manner that no one would have suspected a few decades ago. Aspects of his greatness and character are still streaming into the consciousness of the planet. By connecting up with his energy frequency, you and I may be able to move upscale in our energy signatures and consciousness achievements. David Hawkins has shown in his work that each person has a chronic energy vibratory level[6] at which he typically functions. When anyone joins with the energy frequency of the Cosmic Christ, he or she can move upscale toward his achievement level of !000. This article is dedicated to help us enter into the Alpha/Theta State and to achieve the highest frequency possible while there.

Jesus, in my opinion, was the most important Master Teacher in the history of humankind. The reason he was so important was that he taught Love. He carried the message of a Loving God-Force. Jesus was a perfect Spiritual Being, a direct extension/manifestation from the ONENESS that is the God / Goddess Energy, having a human experience - just as we all are perfect Spiritual Beings having a human experience
Robert Burney

Black and white thinking of the type that occurs in our ego-programmed beta state mocks or mimics true spirituality in a manner that Jesus labeled as the Pharisee or hypocrisy mentality. Much of Jesus teaching was about how to discern between truth and its counterfeits.

The name and significance of Jesus Christ carries great metaphysical power because of the importance of the message of Love carried by this Master Teacher. People who are not practicing discernment and still viewing life from a black and white perspective, often resonate with the Truth of Love symbolized by Jesus and don't know how to separate the feeling of connection and Love associated with Christ Consciousness from the distortions and lies that became a part of Christianity because it was a state religion being used by governments - beginning with Rome - to control and manipulate the masses
Robert Burney


A goal of transpersonal psychotherapy is Christ consciousness…anything less than enlightenment, Christ consciousness or the kingdom of Heaven is “off the mark.” Transpersonal psychotherapy helps us heal the blocking problem, which is our attachment to our ego or false self.
Charles L. Whitfield, M.D.

What A Course in Miracles teaches us about peace:

Opposites must be brought together, not kept apart
Christ would bring peace to everyone, but how can he do this except through you.
You could accept peace now for everyone , and offer them perfect freedom from all illusions because you heard His voice.
Conflict and peace are opposites.
It is through us that peace will come
You will first dream of peace, and then awaken to it
Peace is the greatest enemy of the ego because, according to its interpretation of reality, war is the guarantee of its survival
The peace that already lies deeply within, must expand, and flow across the obstacles you place before it
The first obstacle that peace must flow across is your desire to get rid of it. The second obstacle is that the body is valuable for what it offers..
The third obstacle is the attraction of death. The fourth obstacle is the fear of God.
You were at peace until you asked for special favor
You cannot find peace outside of you
You who want peace can only find it by complete forgiveness
If you want peace, you must give it
Peace is the state where love abides and seeks to share itself
In peace you needed nothing and asked for nothing
There is no substitute for peace
The teacher of peace will never abandon you
Mistake not peace for truce, nor compromise for the escape from conflict
When a situation is devoted wholly to truth, peace is inevitable
The means of ware are not the means of peace, and what the warlike would remember is not love
Do you not think the world needs peace as much as you do?
The opposite of love is fear, but what is all encompassing can have no opposite. Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God.
Peace will be yours because His peace still flows to you from Him Whose will is peace.


[1] Also the earth itself has a resonance or “heartbeat” of 7.8 cycles per second which a German physicist, W. O. Schumann, first detected in 1954.

[2] The Alpha/Theta Door can lead into the heightened states of awareness which have been described as Gamma. Here is an example of some of those heightened states:
35 Hz Awakening of mid-chakras; balance of chakras; 55 Hz: Tantric Yoga; stimulates the kundalini; 63 Hz: Astral projection; 70 Hz: Mental & Astral projection; 80 Hz: Awareness & control of right direction; 83 Hz: Third eye opening for some people: 90 Hz: Good feelings; security, well-being, balancing; 105 Hz: Overall view of complete situation; 108 Hz: Total knowing; 120-500 Hz: P.S.I.; Moving of objects, changing matter; transmutation.

[4] What is the Schumann Resonance?It refers to the region of extremely low frequencies that exist between the ionosphere above the earth and the earth’s surface. A German named Schumann in the 1950’s discovered it. The resonance frequency of 7.83Hz lies on the border line between the Alpha/Theta waves and the theta waves of the human mind. It is the same as light, which travels 7.8 cycles per second around the earth. It is said that all living things on the earth including humans are under the influence of the Schumann Resonance to maintain the basic rhythm of life.
