A very big aloha.
My name is Reverend Cindy Pallas and I wanted to talk today about being a positive force for good.
I think that we've evolved to enough where we're recognizing that there's a lot of negative influences in certain places in the world that are coming from certain people in the world and that we don't have to engage in the negativity.
And there are so many people like you and others here that are positive forces in the world,
That are doing wonderful things,
That are doing amazing things.
Most of the time what you're doing and what other positive influences in the world are doing are not getting the same attention as the negative forces in the world.
And that's partly because of the news,
Because the news focuses on the bad things that are going on mostly.
Except sometimes for about two minutes at the end of the newscast they'll do something positive.
I like that part.
And I like being aware of what's going on.
But how do you be aware and not be engaged and be brought down by the negative influences?
And that's I think more important than ever right now,
Is to maintain your positive energy and your positive influences without being brought into the negative energy and being brought down by it.
I think there's so many people that are depressed about the state of the world that it makes me very,
Very sad.
And I can understand why.
I can certainly understand why.
But the last thing you need to do is be drawn down by negative influences,
When more than ever,
Positive energy and the good stuff is needed right now in the world.
Now,
On a level that you don't usually see on TV news or other places is all the amazing things that are happening.
I see it here on Insight Timer.
If you just look at all the teachers and all the people who are doing good things that are really helping,
And if you look at some of the amazing sacrifices people are making around the world to help other people in need,
It's very,
Very inspiring.
So we have to search out the positive and be aware if we're engaging and being brought down by the negative forces.
And that takes monitoring.
That takes monitoring our state of mind,
Monitoring what we say,
What we believe,
And what we engage in.
And that's an important part of learning the spiritual path,
Is being able to maintain that positive energy and your path that helps and serves others without being completely destroyed by them.
It's been going on a long time.
It goes back to the time of Jesus Christ and all those other teachers who had to deal with the same thing.
It's been going on a long,
Long time.
I think it might have intensified some since then.
And I think that is only because there is more intensity of what's going on and things are speeding up as far as how much you can do,
How quickly we can do,
And how much is received by so many means of media and everything so quickly.
And being online,
Of course,
Changes everything as well.
So we're seeing rapid changes,
But we're also seeing what's going to be happening as AI advances rather rapidly as well.
It all,
To me,
Comes back to being able to be centered and focused on what your true intent is and being dedicated to the fact that you know the good that you can do and you're responsible to share that good in any way you can.
And it can be just like doing the family things or helping family members,
Or it could be helping some nonprofits in your area,
Or it could be just staying positive by taking walks and smiling,
Just smiling,
Smiling at a person.
That positive energy is all very important.
And it may not be life-changing if it's just one person.
But if you take all the thousands of people,
And really it's millions of people who are aware of this,
And who are evolved,
And are continuing to evolve,
Now that's a wonderful thing that you can be inspired by.
And I'm seeing some inspiring movies.
I'm seeing some joint movies as well.
But there are some people who are mostly independents trying to do inspiring work with movies out there as well.
And I certainly,
Because I'm in the music industry,
I certainly know people who are doing amazing music projects and musical pieces that are just unbelievably inspiring.
And you have to search for them.
You have to kind of know where to look,
You know.
And New Age mostly,
Right?
New Age music has that,
You know.
But it's there.
So this is kind of something you just subconsciously learn.
But if you're conscious of it,
It's even more powerful.
I wanted to take a few moments here,
A few minutes here actually,
To just let you be engaged in meditation.
Isn't that a nice term,
Being engaged?
I'm going to engage.
What do you engage?
I'm engaged in connecting with my soul,
With my highest self,
With that positive influence that inspires me.
And we do this as we go into the stillness.
We take our wonderful deep breaths in,
Breathing deeply in,
In,
In,
And holding her breath.
And breathing out,
Breathing fully out.
And then breathing deeply in.
And holding.
And breathing out.
Very simple.
Breathing out all the way.
Pausing for a second.
Breathing deeply in.
Holding your breath.
And now take some time to be aware of your body's alignment.
How your body feels.
Is your spine erect?
Is everything feeling good?
If not,
Send it some energy.
And taking the time to put that wonderful,
Beautiful,
Protective white light all around yourself,
Above you,
Below you,
To the side,
And in front of you,
In the back of you.
Surrounded by this energy of wonderful,
Brilliant,
White,
Protective light.
And just breathe that in and allow that light to be completely in you and around you now.
For you are part of that wonderful light.
You don't see it as light,
But it's still.
If it was seen in a beautiful way through a microscope,
There's all kinds of marvelous things going on in that body of yours.
And that mind of yours is even more amazing.
And that spiritual part of yourself that feeds all this with inspiration is even more wonderful and more powerful.
It may not be seen,
But it certainly can be expressed in your life,
Right?
Inspiration is being in spirit.
Let's breathe that inspiration in and go to that place that's a source of all inspiration.
And just allow yourself to,
With eyes closed,
Look within to that place of that light of the third eye.
And allow that light to be filled with the colors of your soul,
Of your highest self.
And just let it expand to the point where you can receive even more in the stillness.
And I'm just gonna let you breathe peacefully here,
Being in the light of your highest self.
And I can hear the birds calling.
Ah,
Sounds so beautiful.
Symphony of birds.
And I'm gonna allow myself to get any connection in my soul that can give me any inspiration being in that spirit.
And I'm getting that I should express to you how precious you are.
How precious your presence is to that highest part of yourself.
And how appreciated you are for being able to take the time to be here now.
What a great gift that is.
What would you do with this gift,
This great gift that you are?
How would you share this beautiful,
Precious,
Beloved gift that you are with the world?
Allow yourself to breathe that in.
And take the time as you slowly come out of meditation,
Take the time to remember and write down what came to you.
And this way you're building that bridge between your conscious mind and your super conscious and your higher consciousness and your soul consciousness.
You align yourself with that inner self to the outer world.
And once you do this,
What a great gift it is.
It's very,
Very precious.
So take the time to recall and remember the gift of who you are and what gifts you can share with the world.
I am so very,
Very grateful for you taking the time to be here today.
It's so very important and so precious,
More than you might know.
A very deep bow of gratitude and love to you.
