Lightwork Spiritual Development

We are excited about the new sessions beginning, and all the people deepening their commitment to their spiritual growth.  A lovely benefit is that we'll be seeing more of some wonderful folks around here.  It's an exciting time.  The marvelous beauty of spring - new growth all around us, new growth in the community and new growth within.

Apprentice Corner
Reflections of Keith Grennan
 
Spring is here and my first year of apprenticeship is complete.  It has been quite a ride.  This program has challenged me to step up my consciousness, and I still feel like it's just the beginning.  My current goal is to create more flow and ease in my daily life, to support all the work I am doing.  This is an ongoing process of course, but these days I am seeing more clearly how it can be created.  Creating more structure in my life and easing my body into the next higher vibration.  Yes!

Lightwork Productions

Lightwork Productions - the creative wing of Lightwork - has been involved in a number of projects this spring.

Video footage for the upcoming website which will offer meditation classes online is in production. The concept is to offer beginner meditation classes online, using the format of half hour video classes.  The website and video content are currently in production.

The Lightwork Band has been grooving regularly, creating the sweet music known as sacred love pop.  The band is recording for the next album, working on post production, and working on writing songs too!  The band is also in the early stages of creating a music video for their latest song, entitled Ichigo.

Lightwork Ecovillage



The eco friendly low impact road building project has continued in earnest this month.  We’ve been digging rocks out of one of the hillsides on our land and driving heavy loads down to the site in order to build up the road’s surface.  This process is turning out to be easier than first thought as our hillside has an abundance of rocks and is easy to access.  So far we haven’t needed any heavy equipment whatsoever.  It continues to be very satisfying to build the road by hand especially using locally sourced materials.  We may need to bring an excavator in at some point, we’ll see how it goes.
 
Now that we’ve let go of the summer’s scheduled events the intense time pressure has been lifted giving more ease to our work parties.  As always we are working on things just for the love of it. 

If your body is keen to do some invigorating outdoor activities and touch into our beautiful Earth, join us on a weekend work party.  We are looking for a few more regulars to help move our many projects along.  Come along and give it a try. Raise the roof on your havingness for community!

  What's it Going to Be?


Relentless desire to become whole
Spirit will always transcend
It's just a matter of when

First with a nudge
Then with a shove
How much do you need to get you on your conscious spiritual journey?
To walk your path toward light and freedom

Dulled into depression
The wake-up call of illness
The endless day-to-day suffering of why
Dramatic accidents
which are never accidents

For when you are alone outside of the din
And the distraction of relation
When you are quiet and alone
Do you find Source there?
Or is just an empty silence of fear?
What will it take for you to start your journey to light?

In a state of consciousness
In the universe of free will

Bliss is a decision
Freedom is a choice

Happiness is a moment-by-moment intent
You can create anything you want

What is it going to be?
 
 

Resistance Creates Resistance, Ease Creates Ease

- An article by Scott Robinson

One of the main ways all of us create our reality is from a place of resistance.  The thing you can't stand is the thing you draw to you.  If you go into resistance, if you go into battle with something from a place of resistance, you will be battling with it until you get out of resistance to it.  In order for resistance to be present you have to have something to be in resistance to.  There needs to be a push-pull dynamic to create the game of resistance.  If one person simply opts out of the game, essentially becomes neutral, he or she has a level of neutrality where there is nothing to push against, and the resistance has to die.  This does not mean you let people or situations walk all over you, this means you hold your personal space clearly, fully grounded, fully present and from a place of non-resistance, from a place of neutrality.  If someone can get you into a state of resistance, essentially what you have done is you have handed over your power to him or her.  Resistance is hard, it is charged, it is tight, it is not a place of power.  Resistance is a body phenomena and keeps people stuck in old realities.  Ease is a state of flow, of movement, of change, of growth.  Spiritual beings of light know ease well.  Ease allows healing to happen.  You are more creative and aware.  You are more enlightened when you are in a state of ease.  There is more productivity, more amusement and more evolution when ease is present.  The more ease you create for yourself the more ease there is in the world.  Ease truly does create more ease.  You can do anything in your reality from a place of resistance or ease.  It is simply a choice.
