#11: Magic of Water

If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water

-Loren Eiseley

There is magic on our beloved planet, everywhere, everyday, every second and in everything.

The magic and miracle, is the gift of life that mother earth brings.

Look anywhere and everywhere, it all comes from her.

#10 Big Compassion Mantra

Dear Ones,
I am so excited to begin weekly calls on Monday and Tuesdays (10pm-10:30pm Eastern) to sing the beautiful 'Big Compassion Mantra' of Guan Yin, the Da Bei Zhou.

Visit my 'classes and events' page for many links to support you in learning the Da Bei Zhou such as a document with the lines of the mantra, videos of others singing the melody and also a special online course.

Email me for the call-in information or questions at muenztk@hotmail.com

#9: Da Ai Down the Drain

 One day while in the shower, I felt such a deep gratitude in my heart that I was able to be here in this moment, to purify and clean my body, to be blessed by what the water was doing for me, and much of this, I probably couldn't even fathom.

 I immediately turned off the water and bowed down to express my gratitude.

 Bowing down to the unconditional service of water. What an incredible messenger?

 At that time, the soul of water was showing me the many ways it serves, and the opportunities for us to become aligned similarly as a universal servant (like this beloved universal solvent)

To be more aware of what was happening when I used water to serve my life. In the shower, this         beautiful water from below in the earth, that was so pure, was now washing my pollution away,           taking it on, and going down the drain.

My heart was so heavy, how could I be grateful enough. So now, as you'll see below in the PRACTICE section of this blog post, a way to offer love and service back to water, in addition to reducing your usage.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    From BLOG POST # 7 on being WATER WISE, I asked you to reflect and research the many             ways in which water is of service to your life. The answers, would be infinite.

   When I think of examples of unconditional service and love, mother earth and water come to me        immediately. They are my teachers. They are all of our teachers.

   Just think, this beloved resource serves our lives in so many ways. It nourishes our bodies to                flush out pollution within us, to carry minerals, to keep our cells healthy.

  And sometimes, and I am crying as I write this...we do not appreciate this soul enough, and misuse     it..

  Lao Tzu, an ancient philosopher, reflects on the humbleness, power and unconditional servant that is   water.

Let us honor water! 

THE PRACTICE

1. In the shower, washing dishes, as water fills your laundry washer, as you drink water and anytime water is going down a drain, sing the mantra DA AI (greatest Love) and DA GAN EN (Greatest Gratitude)

2. Visualize the water filled with the most beautiful golden light. And just rest there in your heart with this love and gratitude.

I know this will deeply touch and bless the soul of water.

Thank you so much.

With infinite love and gratitude,
Tara

#7: Water Wise

It's time to get wise, with water that is, and here's how!

The soul of water, each molecule, has incredible wisdom to share with us. It is one of the purest examples of an unconditional servant. Think of its life, cycling through many states of consciousness, through our bodies, residing in soil, used, devoted, patient. Water encompasses everything and touches everyone.  It serves without question and without end.

But do we understand the true wisdom we interact with every day? And do we give all that love and devotion back?

This blog will lead to many future entries where I will flow opportunities & exercises in which we honor the sacredness of water and connect with water's wisdom. Its soul is on a journey and has tasks to fulfill here on mother earth and beyond, and we can assist with these tasks.

These exercises will also open your heart to unconditional service, purify your soul and align you in oneness with Tao. 

It's all about creating a universal consciousness, and the time to start, is NOW! So let's go!

The first exercise which I often ask my students to do, is purely observational. So get something to write on (scrap paper is great!) and get ready to think:)

Question & Exercise: How do you use water in your every day? Or how do you observe it being used? Spend your whole day, or take the week to do this and write down all the uses or ways you consume water and interact with it. You will be surprised by this. From rinsing your blender, boiling pasta, brushing teeth, growing your plants, watering your lawn, heating and cooling your home, washing your clothes, kayaking, swimming, sitting by water to relax, and more.


From this initial phase, it led my heart to deeper awareness. Water is also in the food I purchased, the packaging for the food, the growing of the food, in the making of the clothes I wear, the dying of those clothes.  Water is an integral part of ALL the choices I made. In all of my consumption and consciousness. And these choices, have either a positive or negative effect on water. I either leave it happier and healthier or polluted and sick.

When I did this, I couldn't believe how often AND HOW MUCH water I used.


So be open and be aware as you start this process on your own, and please share below anything that comes to you, to enlighten your soul. You might also receive a teaching from the soul of water as you do this, which is wonderful!

We'll go over more of the specific uses and interactions in future posts, how we might be more friendly and loving to water, and I hope to create an awareness of how we can all be more WATER WISE.

Infinite Peace and Joy to you!

#6: Water Element

THE WATER ELEMENT

A 5,000 year-old theory exists in Traditional Chinese Medicine called the Five-Elements. These are elements found in nature including WOOD-FIRE-EARTH-METAL-WATER. 

All things in the universe are categorized in one of these elements including our organs, tissues, emotions and seasons.When we talk about the soul of each one and the potential to transform, this is where things can get really powerful!

There is a phrase that summarizes the power and importance of these elements:

"To balance the five elements is to balance and heal every aspect of life including health, relationships and finances" (Master Sha)

The Water Element relates to the following:

Yang Organ	Kidneys
Yin Organ	Urinary Bladder
Bodily Tissue	Bones/Joints
Sense	Ears/hearing
Unbalanced Emotion	Fear
Balanced Emotion	Calmness
Color	Blue
Finger	Little
Season	Winter
Direction	North
Energy	Conserving

When we show any pain or discomfort in these areas of our body or struggle with the emotion of fear, we need to balance the WATER ELEMENT. How do we do this? We use the Power of Soul and the sacred sound of 'YU' (pr.'You')
Here is a simple practice for balancing this element using the Four Power Techniques!
BODY POWER  Place one palm over your navel and the other palm over a kidney, which is the authority water organ, it represents everything in this element.
SOUL POWER  Say hello to the soul: Dear soul, mind, and body of my Water Element, I love you, honor you and appreciate you. You have the power to heal and rejuvenate my kidneys, urinary bladder, bones, joints, ears and fear. Do a good job, thank you!
Dear the soul of 'Yu', please bless this practice, thank you!
MIND POWER Visualize BLUE LIGHT washing likes waves into your kidneys, and eventually your entire body
SOUND POWER-using the sound of the soul of the water element (YU) Take a deep breath, breathing deep into your lower abdomen As you exhale, say Yuuuuuuuuuuuuu (pr.'You') Inhale Exhale and say 'Yu' Inhale Exhale and say 'Yu' Continue this practice for 5 minutes or more, many times a day to transform and balance this beautiful element. Close the practice by saying 'Hao' 3x, 'Thank you' 3x and 'Gong Song' 3x.  Below, I share a video of Master Sha doing a slightly different practice for the Water Element, and at the end, he offers a blessing with his Tao Song. So beautiful, enjoy!!

#5: Polluted Waters

                                              A FISH CANNOT LIVE IN POLLUTED WATER

I teach all ages (K to Grey) about our beloved waters on Mother Earth, and just last week I was at a trout release here in Pennsylvania with over one-hundred 5th graders (video above of the fishes). These students raised the young trout from eggs, releasing them into a stream with the hope to revive devastated populations from historical pollution impacts.

As I was teaching five different classrooms of children that day, I started each conversation with this question: "what kind of water covers most of the earth?"--I usually hear the response, 'salt water.'

But the last class I had was different.

I received a response that made my heart sink.

The last child answered "polluted water miss Tara, the earth is mostly covered with polluted water." 

And he was right.

According to the EPA, over 55% of rivers in the U.S. are listed as 'impaired,' which in general, means they are not healthy, they are suffering and cannot support over 70% of the life that was living within.

Master Sha teaches us that 'a fish cannot live in polluted waters,' and this is a reflection of us, of the pollution inside each one of us and on Mother Earth. Master Sha says

"If a fish lives in polluted water, the fish gets sick or dies. To heal and save the life of the fish is to cleanse the water. A human being lives in a polluted environment. The environment includes the outer environment and the inner environment. The outer environment is Mother Earth. There are wars, harming, taking advantage of others, cheating, stealing, abusing, and much more on Mother Earth. These are our outer pollution.

Our own shen (soul, heart, and mind) qi (energy) jing (matter) blockages are our inner pollution. These blockages can originate in any of our lifetimes. To heal and to save a person’s life is to clear shen qi jing blockages (inner pollution) and to clear the external pollution (outer pollution)."

Pollution to waterways comes as sediment, nutrients, bacteria and more. To our own souls and even that of Mother Earth's waterways, this is a teaching about pollution in the soul world, or negative karma. Karma is a record of our services, good and negative, that we have ever done in all lifetimes. 

The one sentence secret is:

Karma is the root cause of all success and failure in life

When you have negative karma, you experience blockages and these blockages teach you lessons. The good news is, this is an opportunity to give gratitude and transform your negative karma through service, forgiveness practice and karma cleanses.

Let us do a forgiveness practice with Mother Earth and her Waters

SOUL POWER: Follow this simple 'Say Hello' formula:

Dear soul mind body of our beloved Mother Earth and all her waterways, including rivers, lakes, oceans, estuaries, wetlands,  ground water, and rain. All the water that runs through my own body.

I love you.

Please forgive me and my ancestors for all mistakes we have made in all lifetimes, where we did not come from the greatest love, respect and appreciation for your life.

In order to receive your forgiveness I will serve unconditionally. I will teach others about your love and unconditional universal service. 

SOUND POWER: Then sing or chant repeatedly "I love you" with ALL of your HEART

BODY POWER:
Place your hands over your heart, or message center. This is the love, forgiveness and karma center.

MIND POWER: Visualize the most beautiful bright white light surrounding all of Mother Earth, in every drop of water. 

Chant this for at least 10 minutes or more. 

Close by saying Hao (3x), Thank you (3x) and Gong Song (3x)
Bow down to Mother Earth nine times. 

Please share your experiences below and thank you for your love for Mother Earth!
