Bhavatarini

Published December 8, 2021 by tindertender

The tantric priestess of karmic release manifests with the capacity to integrate higher divine energy into even the most stubborn patterning that has so far resisted healing. When momentum is building, and you don’t know how to stop fueling the fire or reverse the damage, she appears. Her presence indicates that this is a powerful time for spiritual work and healing practices. She will support the work, and much growth can come form it, particularly at this time. No matter how wild they may seem, the storms of your life shall be gentled. You shall emerge unharmed.

Goddess Kali as Bhavatarini is the tantric priestess of karmic release and spiritual blessing. She liberates devotees from karmic struggles, especially those who keep repeating the same patterns with different players. Sometimes the jolt of divine disruption is such a shock that it is temporarily unpleasant, and we feel, therefore, that it is unwanted or harmful. However, once we allow the workings of such disruption to realign our affairs, we will come to recognize and be grateful for what is taking place. We will see it as a saving grace rather than something we had to endure. A ceasing of restrictive or negative influences is predicted.

Ma is adorned with flowers in recognition that she is celebrated during puja. Unlike the fierce Kali who is adored in fearsome places in the dead of night, the kind Bhavatarini is adored in celebrations of the light. The puja, or ‘sacred ritual’, can be very simple, In its most basic form, it is a call to the divine ones to manifest on Earth. It is a creation of light and has a cleansing effect on those doing the puja and, if the intentions and receptivity are strong enough, on the surrounding people and areas.

Bhavatarini teaches that our spiritual activities can have a positive influence, more so than we think possible. She foretells of a profoundly positive and expansive energy that will become available to us if we are willing to open our hearts to her. She also reminds us that we don’t have to wait until things become severe to call on the Divine Mother’s assistance. Why not call for her daily, not only to resolve issues but to prevent them from gaining traction in the first place? If we align ourselves with such simple and happiness-inducing wisdom, our lives can become peaceful and free from unnecessary drama.

Bhavatarini can take the form of Kali Phalaharini to destroy the results of our actions. Phala means ‘fruit’, and harini means ‘a female who takes something away’. So, Phalaharini means ‘the woman who takes away the fruit of our actions’. This means that she can conquer our karma. Kali Phalaharini can cleanse our samkaras, or ‘mental psychic imprints’. These are the familiar grooves that keep the soul repeating patterns, lifetime after lifetime. They are comprised of habitual ways of thinking and behaving that prevent us from evolving into something new and more suitable. They are the karma of ‘stuckness’, limiting our freedom, creativity and expression.

Samskaras can be negative in quality – such as an inhuman compulsion toward prefection – but they can be something we consider positive, such as a repeated attraction toward being a healer. Although being a healer can generate spiritual benefit if we identify with it, it can undermine our freedom to grow spiritually. It can become overly restrictive, and even lead to suppression of aspects of our authentic being that don’t readily ‘fit in’ with the healer archetype.

In the example of a healer, the Divine Mother recognizes the goodness in your heart and your genuine desire to assist. Yet, she will do what is necessary to protect your spiritual awakening and free you from your attachments (yes, even the attachment to helping others). This doesn’t mean that you no longer want to be a healer or that you are blocked from doing so. It means you will not be able to prop up self-value using external roles. Ultimately, this is a gift, but it is a lesson that many healers find painful in the beginning. They need to learn how to offer their heartfelt work and not be attached to how it is received. If they see immediate results and powerful effects of the work, the challenge is to not identify with what is happening and make the divine grace about their own ego. If the ego is failing these lessons and getting caught up in feeling superior or inferior, then the Divine Mother will intervene.

The lesson is that you can relish the roles you play in your life without allowing them to define you. You are asked to take care that you don’t restrict yourself to the roles you play. Embrace the spiritual freedom and unconditional love necessary to be your full authentic being. You are asked to bear the discomfort of no longer relying on certain familiar patterns to give you validation. This will open you up to greater self-realization, self-possession, and joyful freedom to be your whole self. You are on the cusp of a beautiful breakthrough into a more positive era. To amplify her blessings, open your heart to the unfamiliar.

INVOCATION RITUAL
Say this prayer aloud:

Beloved Ma Kali, Bhavatarini, Kali Phalaharini, please help me release attachment to the outcomes of my actions so that your grace can manifest without inhibition or constraint. Please abort negative karmic momentum flowing from me or toward me. I place my trust in you. You are the strength that overcomes current, You are the peace that arises in letting go. You are the graceful and effective wisdom manifesting spontaneously for the spiritual benefit of all beings. May your beautiful kindness and liberating wisdom emanate within my heart, always. May I love you more than I love certainty and control! Jai Ma Kali! Jai Ma! Jai Ma!

See yourself seated upon a lion throne with thick garlands of red flowers about your neck hanging over your chest. Stick out your tongue and breathe out a fierce cleansing breath. Then become peaceful. Place your hands at your heart. Sense that there is a guiding presence that knows exactly what needs to happen and when for the spiritual benefit of all beings. You can trust in that. You now become willing to rest in spontaneous wisdom of the heart.

Place your hands in prayer and bow your head in gratitude and reverence. You have completed your healing process.

Neuroplasticity happens when connections are made across the neural network in our brain. Essentially, our brain creates super-highways that it travels quickly in response to outside stimuli. Thought patterns that are repeated often create massive highways that the thought travels on. The more the thought occurs, the more it will occur.

One of the most effective ways to reprogram the mind, to reformat the consciousness, is through using affirmative statements. I share with you examples that you may find helpful should you wish to use them to assist in reformatting the thinking mind.

I trust in the flow of life as it takes me forward.

I stop the flow of old thoughts.

I look to the light.

I set my sights higher.

I cast away any fear or doubt as I flow forward into the next cycle of experience.

I tap into my inner resources and harness the power of my unconscious mind to affect change and healing in my life.

Instead of questioning what I did to receive all this goodness, I pray to become more aware and receptive to the blessings in my life.

I am present as I open my heart to graciously behold blessings laying at my feet.

I step through the door of destiny. I trust that everything I hope and dream of will be there waiting for me.

On The Wings Of Freedom – Birds Flying And Broken Chains – Charge Concept

I believe in destiny. I move into what I love most passionately, I shine light and I enter light … everything I hope and dream for is waiting for me.

I evaluate my challenges, there is always something there which will make me stronger. I seek this gift, this opportunity. I know these challenges are here to help me grow into my fullest potential.

I transform my so-called enemies and challenges into divine opportunities for maximum awakening.

I choose these lessons and have all the answers I need to succeed.

I go forth with purpose.

I am aware of my sovereignty and true self.

This is a time of renewal, a great time of creativity and love.

Light is shining on all things which have been kept in the dark, all will be known. Intuition increases.

I move deeper into Divine Love. I know there is more than human love and I aim to find it. I seek union with a divine force. I seek the eternal, not temporary pleasure.

My soul is not possessed by things, or people, around me.

There is magic and wonder in every now moment. I recognize it and interact with it without moving too far ahead into the future.

I open to transformation with open heart and open mind.

I celebrate each success no matter how small it may appear.

I am expanding.

I attract everything needed to boost this process. I allow integration to occur.

I trust in the cycles of my life, my work, and my own spiritual growth.

Through unconditional love, I thrive.

I honor those I encounter of like mind. I see my own courage, wisdom and adventurous spirit reflected in them. I recognize their good qualities and I am grateful.

I am blessed as I enter the process of transformation.

I am on a path of self-discovery in every moment. I stay present. I do not construct a story around it. I allow the experience to be uncovered.

Patiently I move into a new perspective. I’m finally seeing things as a whole. A clear idea of what is happening in my life arrives.

In my heart, I am peace.

I seek the highest good.

I am a giver of love. I am an extension of that One, infinite giver of love.

The imagination is the bridge we build so that higher beings get to us. I am not afraid to build a good one.

I am not afraid to allow infinite love to take form according to my desires.

I ask the Giver of Love to embody before me as a person with whom I can relate. I embody the Giver of Love within me.

I seek a way to manifest my souls desire for new meaning and a more nurturing and fulfilling lifestyle.

I am on track.

I accept the promise of future reward.

I open, with trust, to a seemingly illogical path. Not all linear pathways are smooth, sometimes a roundabout journey can be quicker and more fun.

I am in the midst of spiral manifestation. Something amazing is coming, hidden just around the bend in this spiral.

I am closer to this new reality than ever before. I feel it. All is unfolding perfectly.

I pay attention to synchronicities; the Universe is speaking.

I do not rush. I do not carry anxiety. I attract what I want and need. My life unfolds in galactic harmony.

I relax. I breathe. I stabilize.

Come To Life

Published December 4, 2021 by tindertender

You are the most sacred of all sacred artworks. You are bringing yourself to life now and this is how it must be. Of course, something being essential doesn’t mean it will always be easy. You must support yourself and have courage during this process. Your monkey mind is not to run the show. It might have a lot to say and at times it seems very convincing, but it is not the one in charge. Your mind can inspire you with ideas. However, it is the real you that speaks through your rebellious sacred heart and is living your life, not the monkey mind. The mind is not much more than a swirling cacophony of habitual reactions.

Beneath habitual thoughts there is a deep sensual, creative and energetic awakening happening to you. It is so far beyond what the mind is now capable of controlling. Others might not like it because it shakes things up – coming to life tends to do that. However, it is happening now and the only real choice you have to make is how to deal with it.

Coming to life means feeling. It might bring joy but it could equally bring sadness, rage or fear. It could bring all of these and more. Feelings will come and go quite swiftly when allowed to flow. You might need to paint, write, enact ritual, sing or dance your feelings to help the energy flow. Don’t hold back. Create the space for yourself to do it. In this process you are uncovering the artistry of the universal creator. You are honoring the sacredness of life by exploring it without restraint and that includes the flow of your feelings. You don’t have to do anything with them other than express. You may want to analyze or you may not. It doesn’t matter. What matters is that you are getting in touch with feeling. Learning how to access your feelings allows you to learn how to access your intuition, creative inspiration and genuine internal guidance. These aspects flow from the same place and are often couched within your feelings in the form of emotions as well as physical sensations.

The journey underneath the mind and into the sensual, emotional connection with your feelings, emotions and body is for a sacred purpose. It is a part of your path. You are one of the sacred but powerful minority that have chosen to come into a body and live consciously within it. There are plenty of bodies without a spirit really residing within, to care for, love and honor them as a sacred animal.

Fortunately this minority is powerful enough that it can keep human culture in balance. But only just! We need every single one of us that is capable, to be aware of the task and move beyond the mind into the body.

To come into your sensuality you will need to anchor your experiences. You may be blessed with relationships that are conscious enough to be interested in your journey in a constructive rather than controlling or undermining way. If so, talk! Converse! Share! If not, then you will need to be more resourceful in how you support yourself through your awakening process – at least until you attract some more conscious connections into your life. It is likely that these connections are already on their way.

You can support your own process by scheduling time for yourself and keeping to it like you would the most important date with destiny! So get to writing in your journal. Do your dances. Paint your pictures. Create your creations. Be kind to your body, listen to it and let it be alive. Even in times of pain, know that there will also be ecstasy and bliss as the process of healing and awakening continues.

Be alive! Don’t imagine you can go back to sleep. You are too awake for that now. There is no falling back into old ways. If you do so, it will be short lived and won’t feel the same as it used to. You may grieve this. You will certainly (eventually) celebrate it. You have crossed the threshold from an old way of being in an old life and try as you might, you cannot return to it. It is better to let it go. Grieve if needs be, celebrate if needs be or do both and move on into this moment. There is another adventure awaiting you now. You need a deeper connection to your own instincts, body, feelings and intuitions so that you can receive this new calling. You can trust in it, too. Embrace it and it will embrace you.

Healing process ::
Lie quietly and play some beautiful music that you love. Allow it to move through your body, as though the sound is pure energy and you are as light as air. Let the sound feel good. Let your cells receive the sound energy. Feel the music rattle about in your body, as if the sound waves are making your cells vibrate – they are!

Let there be life.

Get up and move if you wish. If you have emotion rising, be with it but don’t hold on to it. Let it rise and fall as it will.

Be in this process as long as feels right for you.

Feeling you have had enough indicates that you have completed the healing process. You may wish to repeat this exercise daily for several weeks, if so, choose music that feels right for you each time. You can then see the difference this healing process has on your wellbeing, your energy levels and the ease in which you access your intuition and feelings. Also note the clarity in what you perceive. You might be surprised at what a little music therapy, consciously received, can do for you.

I allow my hopes and dreams to become a reality.

I believe a new and better life is coming to me.

Be Blessed

Published December 2, 2021 by tindertender

Acknowledge all the areas within yourself that are praiseworthy.

Every smile shared, every good action or even thought, aids in the betterment of the surrounding area and all within that area.

When we raise the vibration of our immediate vicinity others feel it, that pure energy.

Focusing on compassion with an attempt to understand, without judgment …

What hurts one, hurts the whole. Share a smile, project the love in your heart outward.

Make someone’s day … just because you can. There is power in kindness …

What Do You Feel?

Published December 2, 2021 by tindertender

There are many opinions around you. Some are helpful but others are distracting you from your truth. Although it can be helpful to hear the thoughts of others, when it comes down to it, you will have to come to your own decision. Do you know how unique you are? How your path is your path to be chosen, lived and created – only by you? Someone else cannot become the source of your decision-making power without negative repercussions for both of you in the long run.

You have become swept up in thinking things through. You have been thinking about which way to go with a matter of importance and you have got a bit stuck in the logic of the decision-making process. Sometimes we have to accept that any path is a path forward and if it is not the best path, we can change our approach later on if needed. If we are slightly off-base with a decision, life will often shift and move to guide us back on track. We don’t have to be perfect. In fact, there is rarely ever a perfect choice to be made – just some choices that feel more heart honoring than others. Sometimes we can only really know in hindsight if we made the best choice possible in that moment. At the time of decision-making, we only really have our internal wisdom to rely upon. And that is all we need.

There is no need to punish or traumatize yourself with possible choices. Just making a choice will set things in motion. The best way to catalyze the situation you are in and bring about healing change, stimulate your creative juices and find a more inspired, energized and enjoyable approach to your life, is to just make a choice based on what you feel right now. Not based on anyone else’s feelings. Just yours. So ask yourself – what do I feel right now? And go from there.

If you cannot relate to the need to make a choice between two or more clear alternatives, know this, you are at a crossroads in your journey and the choices you make at this time – even simply choosing to do things a little differently, without much drama associated with the decision – are powerful triggers for some great magic to enter your life.

Take a different approach to something. Be open to that which makes you uncomfortable but could be exciting and interesting. Even small adventures will yield big rewards right now. It matters less that you do the most wonderful thing ever (too much pressure!) and more that you simply take action from your heart. Open up to the creative magic of life and don’t worry about how it is all going to work out. The bigger creative flow of life is sorting out all the details and you are not immune to that plan. In fact you are a natural part of it! So just spend some time with your own feelings and know that all is going to work out perfectly.

Healing process ::
Close your eyes and relax, rest your open palms facing upwards on your legs. Imagine that you have a ball of light in each hand. If you find it hard to visualize or feel, you may prefer to draw this process in your journal instead.

Focus on one ball of light first. What color or colors does it feel like? What feelings, words, symbols or qualities does it have? How heavy or light is it? How substantial? What do you feel about it? Do you like it?

Turn your attention to the second ball of light. Repeat the investigation or exploration that you did for the first.

When you are ready, choose one. There is no wrong or right choice, just whatever captures your attention, energy or heart most at this moment. The other may be there waiting for you later on, if it needs be – or it might be easily released, if that most serves your life’s path and creative journey.

You may like to take that chosen ball of light and imagine sending it our into the universe with love. If you have drawn it, you might like to add words, feelings or colors.

When you have finished, simply say, “My choices flow easily from my heart and I tread my path with certainty and grace, always within the merciful protection of unconditional love. So be it.”

When you are ready, simply open your eyes and you have completed your healing process.
