Questions

A number of questions have come in lately that will be addressed here.

~

Some people have been attending classes for years and others are new to the school and only know of it by the website.  That is all great.  I would like to provide as much information as I can on the website so that even people without the time, money, or inclination to travel to classes can still receive the knowledge.

~

The challenge is to write in a manner that is understood by those who are new to the school, while still saying things that are engaging to the long-term students.

~

I welcome the challenge and appreciate your emails asking for clarification if concepts and terms are used that you are not familiar with.  This will help make the website user friendly for everyone.  Some of the concepts are as subtle as they are important so please bear with me as the information is provided over time.

~

Several such questions will be addressed below.  However, understand that each is a lecture or series of lectures in itself. More thorough explanations help insure that the words are not misunderstood.  Let’s move forward together in that spirit, understanding that each answer may well create a number of additional questions.  I will address all these things in more depth in future articles, blogs, and videos on the website.

~

One question asked why Mount Soma is safer than other places during these times of earth change.

~

It is important to understand the interconnection of all things.  The environment affects your consciousness and your consciousness affects the environment.

~

The transcendent is a field of pure conscious (is-ness, being, the unified field, God…these and other terms are used for the transcendent) underlying and radiating harmony and coherence into your awareness and through you, to the environment.  As you do a meditation through which you transcend, this becomes stronger.

~

As you do this in a location where others are also doing this mediation, the effect becomes exponentially stronger.

~

At Mount Soma, additional technologies are employed to enhance this even more such as vastu, Sri Somesvara (see SriSomesvara.org), etc.  This harmony, radiating out to the environment, has a stabilizing and healing effect on the environment.  It becomes a solid ground that supports life.

~

Research has shown this sort of phenomenon to be true.  At Mount Soma, we take great care to implement this with precision and purity.  Cultural and personal biases make that a very rare thing on the planet.  The knowledge is profoundly subtle and therefore quite elusive.

~

A second question refers to a previous blog where I stated that to perceive something is to heal it, asking how that is so.

~

This involves the concept I have discussed at length called “Being, Merging, Knowing, and Doing.”  In a nutshell:  Today when something is to be accomplished, the first question is, “What do I do?  How do I DO it?”  In other words, the ‘doing’ comes first.  This is a superficial and I would have to say upside down approach.  Doing comes last.  How to do it, comes last.

~

True knowledge of anything starts with Being.  Become established in your being (the transcendent) or at least in the short term, settle down and rest into yourself… get ‘centered.’

~

From there if you have something to deal with, Merge with it.  On the level of being, you are one with everything. Find that thing within youself and merge with it.  That is what true perception is all about.

~

From that ‘Knowing’ naturally follows.  Once you have merged with something, you come to truly know it.

~

After that, the proper Doing is clear and spontaneous.  You know what to do, because you have clearly perceived from the deepest level of your being.  To perceive is to heal.

~

Third question: “How do we tell our children about the upcoming earth changes?”

~

Every person is unique.  Therefore what is best said depends on the individual child.  To know what to say comes from the same principle as above… being, merging knowing, and doing.

~

Take the time to understand your child and then you will know what to do/say.

~

To my experience, children are often satisfied with short responses that bottom line the subject.  They often go deep within naturally and receive your words on that level.  They are capable of filling in many details deep within their own hearts.

~

With respect to earth changes, simply saying that the world is purifying and as it does so, it naturally lets off steam here and there may be enough.

~

Regarding their safety, it is important for them to know that they derive a great deal of support in life quite naturally (Many adults would do well to understand that better).

~

By resting in your arms, they rest in the arms of Mother Nature and thereby receive the support of nature.  That is simply how life works and kids drink up the energy they receive from that quite naturally.

~

The unrest in the tectonic plates is born of the fear and negativity in people’s hearts.  By resting in your own being, your children will learn how to rest into there’s.

As a result, Nature will hold and support them and you.

~

Living from that place within your own being will be to best way of communicating all this to your children.
