The ethers are buzzing and teeming with messages and one thing or somebody is
all the time making an attempt to name and appeal to our consideration to make their wants recognized. We
obtain a relentless and broad-spectrum stream of incoming alerts – starting from the
name of the Soul that seeks to information and enlighten us throughout our sojourn on Earth to
the determined cries of ache and anguish from human hearts immersed and enmeshed
in a world of struggling.
We’re being requested to register and reply to the harrowing emergencies in addition to to
the hopeful indicators of emergence and regeneration. The obvious and compelling
voice is the cry for assist every time pure disasters strike and human tragedies happen.
Our society is organized to behave swiftly in occasions of misery with groups of first
responders offering support and luxury. Nevertheless, in addition to these expert and keen
palms who can sort out wildfires, rescue individuals from collapsed buildings and have a tendency to
the wounded on the scene of an accident, there’s additionally an actual want for many who are
outfitted to supply religious first support.
The current huge earthquakes in Southern Turkey and Northern Syria come as a
stark reminder of the fragility of life on Earth and wish for us to behave out of
compassion. How do we offer fast support and luxury to our sisters and
brothers in any a part of the world whose lives have been severely disrupted by a pure
catastrophe? It’s one factor to produce the inhabitants with meals, drugs, shelter and the
fundamentals of life and but, who is ready to present the deep religious support to those that have
both misplaced their lives or misplaced their worldly possessions and their family members? That is
the place the Religious First Responder workforce enters the image.
We live in occasions of nice transition and turmoil as outdated fashions of considering and
behaving are discovered wanting and start to interrupt aside. Along with mobilizing our
sources to handle this all-systems breakdown, a religious support employee responds to the
pressing request of the Soul to generate a brand new narrative and assemble a extra simply and
joyful society that displays the innate goodness and potential of the human spirit. If
we don’t sow the brand new seeds of fiery hope and chance within the soil of right this moment, then
nothing totally different will develop tomorrow within the Backyard of Gaia.
At Meditation Mount, we’re dedicated to constructing extra soul-inspired types of
collective dwelling upon the strong basis of religious ideas and values of caring
and sharing. These tense occasions of emergency, irrespective of how painful, can be
home windows of emergence for the brand new shoots of a most well-liked future. Are you and I prepared
to grow to be religious first responders? Do now we have what it takes to reply this name?
Let me share a private expertise which occurred over 40 years in the past whereas dwelling in
the Findhorn Group in northern Scotland that impressed itself indelibly upon
my psyche and opened my eyes to the need of getting a talented band of Religious
First Responders on-call and accessible to serve our communities.
I used to be educating a day-long course on Esoteric Philosophy that included a piece on Dying
and Dying and in the course of the lunch break determined to stroll all the way down to the city and decide up a
pair of footwear that had been being repaired. Popping out of the shop with my package deal, I
waited to cross the street and an aged lady got here and joined me on the curb.
All of the sudden, she stepped out into the street and a motorbike hit her and despatched her flying.
She was sprawled on the bottom bleeding and the motorcyclist was thrown from the
motorcycle and lay in agony close by.
A neighborhood nurse witnessed the accident and instantly rushed over to the motorcyclist
to assist as a result of that was her particular ability. I instantly knew my place was with this
lady. Cradled in my arms and bleeding, she died virtually instantly. My activity as
an aspiring responder was to assist her go away – to assist her perceive that she was no
longer alive. My position was to not protect her earthly type as she’d already died. As
the accident occurred so shortly, the girl was in shock and most certainly not conscious
she was now deceased. She didn’t know what hit her. I spent the meantime
till the ambulance arrived holding her physique and reassuring her that she was secure.
Though she now not possessed a bodily physique, her Consciousness remained
and I sensed that she would really feel secure, comforted and reassured on this understanding.
Geared up with a primary understanding of the demise course of, I provided a number of easy
instructions on find out how to let go, transfer on and start the journey into the refined realms.
It was a kind of days to recollect as a result of demise was within the air – not as a morbid
cloud hanging over the city – however as a transparent reminder of the impermanence or type.
All temporal varieties are born, develop, develop after which die on the finish of their cycle.
These days now we have people who find themselves very expert at serving to individuals die and make the
transition. A lady visiting Meditation Mount lately gave me a enterprise card
describing herself as a Dying Doula – somebody who assists with ‘exiting’ and swish
transitions – similarly that midwives come to assist with pure childbirth as
a swish entry into the temporal realm. Our customer was due to this fact a pure religious
first responder assembly a specific human want.
Seeing individuals sorting by means of the rubble and pulling the lifeless and injured, who had
been buried within the earthquakes in Turkey and Syria, jogged my memory of the necessity for a
world core of servers. As now we have witnessed, throughout a devastating earthquake there’s
an pressing want for fast assist to assist rescue these trapped in collapsed
buildings, to bury the lifeless and to are likely to the wounded in addition to cope with the
emotional trauma that accompanies such occasions.
If we’re to assist others who’re traumatized and bewildered by what is going on,
then we first should be certain that our response to Life comes from a spot of deep
understanding and acceptance and that every one worry has been overcome.
Even when we aren’t there on the bottom, we will nonetheless be of nice help as a result of
‘vitality follows thought’ and love travels instantaneously to the place it’s directed by the
compassionate thoughts. We have to keep in mind that demise is a pure gateway and a
reabsorption into the continual circulate of the One Life. The place there isn’t any worry or
doubt current in our thoughts, the Soul is aware of intuitively find out how to go away gracefully.
We might help create and maintain a peaceable ambiance for these departing the temporal
world by partaking in rituals of transition. For instance, the Buddhists have a
fantastic technique of accompanying the soul because it travels the forty days by means of the
Bardo and the Jewish custom has a caring apply of sitting Shiva with the departed.
As a religious first responder we embrace the total spectrum of life from emergency to
emergence – from demise to rebirth – and are referred to as to indicate up and support and supply
solace those that undergo and to encourage those that carry the seeds of recent
potentialities. On the deepest stage, we’re being requested to answer the decision of the
Soul because it points a compelling invitation to think about and craft a brand new world primarily based on
heart-centered qualities and religious ideas. Probably the most highly effective acts of
therapeutic and hope should due to this fact be to construct an ‘up-cycled’ society primarily based upon caring
and sharing – one which manifests the innate goodness of the human spirit the place the
ache of inter-personal and inter-national battle and separation is significantly diminished.
Birthing a brand new way of life collectively on Earth that’s in harmonious relationship with
all Life is our collective and pressing project if we’re to interrupt the present closed
circle of struggling and separation and transfer upwards onto the subsequent flip of the
virtuous spiral of evolution. At Meditation Mount our Mission is to advertise and reside
the Rules and Pathways of the Realm of the Soul. These are the Rules of
Important Divinity, Goodwill and Unanimity with their attendant Pathways of Religious
Strategy, Proper Human Relations and Group Endeavor and they’re the true
cornerstone and basis upon which to construct.
