A very big aloha.
My name is Reverend Cindy Pollos,
And I wanted to talk about power.
Of being content and at peace with yourself.
We can easily check in when we do meditation.
And go to a place where we can.
Do a scan,
You know,
Kind of do a mental.
Check out,
You know,
Check out what's going on.
If you're meditating a lot,
You kind of realize when you begin to meditate that you realize the thoughts that go through your mind on a regular basis.
And I think that with what's going on more and more with social media,
That we have more and more thoughts going through our minds because there's such an amount of massive input going on right now.
So I always take an hour to meditate every morning,
But it may take 10 minutes or 15 minutes to get clear.
Be totally at peace.
And centered within myself.
And it's an interesting journey.
That you take to get to that place.
And I think it takes a matter of a great amount of confidence and realization that it's there always.
But our thoughts are doing their own little trip.
They're going through their own little motions.
It's okay.
That's what happens,
Right?
The thoughts are going to be traveling.
But you don't get too distracted or worried.
You know,
Engaged in the passing thoughts.
To get to that inner place.
Of peace within.
And when you get confident enough to know that that's there,
That's the underlying place you will be aware of in a bit.
And then you get to that place and it's like,
Okay,
What does it take to just be here now,
To be present?
To be okay.
And stay in that place.
I was talking to someone.
Who said they do?
Three-hour meditations,
You know,
Three to four hours.
Every week that they do the three or four hour meditations.
And that's interesting.
I don't know if you've ever done long meditations.
It's been a while.
Since I have.
But the interesting thing to me is that if you know you have a long time.
Maybe a day,
Maybe two days of meditation.
Your mind is aware of that.
And you may extend the time of your thoughts doing their little thing,
Because it's got more time to wander,
Right?
And I think you can.
In an hour or perhaps less,
Get to that same place within that is that very clear state of peace.
Now the question is how long can you maintain it?
In your everyday awareness because there's so much that happens in a day that we go through.
But if you always know it's there and if you're confident and that place is strong,
Within you.
Of understanding the great power.
Of that inner peace that exists in your consciousness,
In that place within.
That it will give you a certain sense of security.
A certain center of being.
And it's a great gift.
It's,
You can't put a price on it.
And you also,
You know,
You see so many people trying to get money from selling you this or this or that,
Or try to do,
You know,
All these things with them to engage.
But you don't need all of that.
You know,
It's right there within you.
And there are,
You know,
Possibly you might need encouragement.
But that encouragement still will take you to that same place.
So it's good to have the courage.
Of encouragement.
To just be aware that it's there.
This center,
This gift,
This center of peace within you.
And that you can go through so much in your thoughts and awareness,
Depending on how much you're going through in your life.
But you will get to that place of peace.
And what a gift,
What a precious.
Precious gift that peace within you is.
And that sacred peace center.
Carries an energy field.
Now,
I imagine you've been there and have experienced it,
But if you haven't,
You can imagine.
Imagine a place that is just full of light,
Full of good energy.
That is totally.
.
.
Not concerned or stressed at all,
But just a place of being okay.
Everything's all right.
Of being at peace.
And that precious,
Precious gift is there for you,
Waiting for you,
Always.
So you can call upon it now.
Some people.
Do daily meditations as I do.
Some people do two or three times a day meditations.
I think it's myself after doing this since I've been I'm meditating since I've been 13 years old but I find sometimes it's helpful at night to do a clearing as well and get once again to that place of peace and that may take going through whatever routine you go through.
And then let your mind go through whatever it goes through and just be in that place of peace.
It's a great gift that's always present there within you.
And I really would love to invite you and encourage you.
To take a little time.
And to just sit.
And be aware.
And find that beautiful place of peace within you and be centered.
And aware of it as you realize you have that ability to reach that place of peace within you anytime.
That it's always there waiting for you.
Gift that is.
And I'm so very grateful to you for listening and taking the time to understand.
Deep blessings always.
