A very big Aloha.
My name is Reverend Cindy Palos.
How are you today?
I hope you're doing well.
And I thought I'd talk today about the creative spirit.
I've always absolutely been inspired by the creative spirit and directed by the creative spirit and have dedicated a lot of work including poems and videos and albums from the creative spirit.
And the creative spirit is a gift.
And if you listen to the creative spirit and if you're open to the creative spirit,
It will then speak to you and then you can use it.
If you ignore it,
It's a very elusive thing.
It can slip away.
I will have ideas for words or poems come and if I don't capture that and start writing within minutes,
It'll just go,
You know.
And it's there if you're open to it.
But if you're not,
It just can slip away.
And the amazing thing about it is that it's limitless.
I've been doing this all my life and I've never really found that it runs dry.
And you know what?
There's no charge.
It's free.
Now what you do with it,
That's another story.
That can get rather expensive.
I know because I put out albums and boy,
That can get expensive and stuff.
But the thing is,
The gift is there.
And I have to say I am so very,
Very grateful for that creative spirit and the gift it brings.
I mean,
Have you ever just listened to some idea and followed it through and then just found,
Wow,
That was inspiring?
Well,
That's because it was in spirit,
Right?
Inspiration is in spirit.
And when you're in spirit,
Wonderful,
Magical things can happen.
And I just truly am.
My whole life's been directed and dictated that way.
And it's a gift that you get when you meditate.
It's a gift that you get when you go inside and you allow yourself to listen and develop that link.
That link is there.
You just allow yourself to go to that link and allow that energy and that door to that energy to be open.
Now,
You may not always get what's there right when you meditate,
Right after you meditate,
But it opens the door to it.
You know what I'm trying to say?
It leaves that doorway open for that spirit and direction of that spirit to come through.
And you learn throughout the day that it will direct you in many,
Many ways.
It's absolutely amazing how it will direct you.
What a gift that is.
So let's go into meditation and open that doorway and see what comes.
Okay,
So we just love to go into meditation,
Right?
We just go deep inside by relaxing.
And I'm putting my feet on the ground,
Both feet on the ground flat here.
And as I go into meditation,
I sit erect and allow the energy flow to go through me.
I immediately notice my spine and how it's flowing with the energy through it.
And I put a wonderful white light all the way above and below and in front and back on either side.
A beautiful,
Protective,
Wonderful spirit white light.
And then I just allow myself to breathe.
Very simply breathing in and holding and breathing out.
That breath that sweeps the mind.
Breathing in and the breath out.
The breath of spirit.
What a gift.
What a precious gift this breath is.
It's your lifeblood,
Your life force coming through you with each breath in and the awareness of each breath out.
How precious.
Going deeply within,
Holding,
And ooh,
Cracked my neck there,
And breathing out.
Okay,
Now the energy is flowing and just allow that energy to continue to breathe in and breathe out with that wonderful flow going through you.
And as you relax and go deeper within,
You'll become more aware.
And you breathe in and you realize,
Wow,
There's this force of energy there within me.
Hmm,
Where's that force of energy coming from?
What is that force?
What is that force of energy?
Allow yourself to be directed to the source of that force.
Going back to that old movie,
May the force be with you,
Right?
Let that force of that beautiful spirit be with you.
As you breathe in that force of energy and you allow it to be with you.
Tune in to that wonderful force of energy.
And let yourself listen to the source of that force.
What would the source of that force be?
Where is that breath and that spirit coming from?
Oh,
It's precious.
That precious,
Precious gift.
Let it feed your soul.
How does that feel?
Can you feel the flow going from your soul,
From the force to your soul,
From your soul to your whole awareness of your mind and your body?
Can you allow there to be a flow of energy like a beautiful river that flows?
Let that source of that river,
That beginning of that river from your soul flow through you,
Just like a river flows through you.
A beautiful river that flows all the way through you.
Dive deep into that river.
Let the river and the water of that river refresh and renew and revitalize you.
Ah,
What a wonderful gift that is.
You are part of that river.
And you flow with that river.
And it goes on and on.
Let it completely,
Completely come to you now with the full force of the beautiful energy that it is into your mind,
Into your awareness,
Into your body.
And to think about what might come to you through that wonderful source that flows through that river.
What would it say to you if you were to hear that river talk to you?
What would it say?
Allow it to continue to flow as you slowly come out of meditation,
Being ever so grateful for that gift,
That wonderful gift of inspiration that is coming through to you from that source.
And take a moment to write down anything that might come.
Any thoughts,
Any feelings,
Anything.
Let it fill your entire energy field.
And I take a moment here to bow in the deepest of gratitude to you for being present with this wonderful flow of love.
The deepest gratitude and love to you,
My friend.
Thank you so much for being here.
