September 17th: My GGAQ’s & Meditations on Tara

Today’s book recommendations:

  1. How to Free Your Mind: The Practice of Tara the Liberator
  2. Zen & the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

“om tare tuttare ture soha”

Tara means “star,” “planet,” or “she who ferries across.” She is a bodhisattva embodying compassion in the female form of a young goddess. She is often considered to be such an advanced bodhisattva that she is actually a Buddha.

Tara’s name is said to derive from the verb meaning “to cross” or “to traverse”. In Pali the verb tarati means “to get to the other side.” This word is cognate with the Latin “trans” (across). The word Tara also literally means “star.” – Source 

 

Good morning,

Today I am introduced to this wonderful Deity, Tara – She is the mother of all! I trust you had an enjoyable weekend. As I look forward to the coming days and weeks it seems most are anticipating a change of seasons and excited for the Fall weather. Some may not, however most of us here in Colorado are done with the heat and ready for some cooler temperatures. They are coming and I’m excited, Fall colors, temps, and snow are what I look forward to after a long Summer.

I have been giving thought to which is the aspect of quality and care. In fact a wonderful book on this very topic is, Zen and Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. It speaks to the elements of care and our need for the quality in aspects of our lives. I struggle with this as I am always looking to the end result of any project or endeavor and less about the details in which will make the project a complete success.

Part of being a high level thinker and entrepreneur is my automatic holistic bent to always look to the end result of actions and end results. Yet, I miss the important aspects of what make something worth while. Today I am introduced to Tara and I believe she has appeared in my life to be very important as to what I am working on for my next big product that will be launching in the coming weeks.

tara

I will meditate and learn to work with her – I believe she can help me to achieve the balance, the quality, and the care that is necessary to bring about the desired results. I desire the details of what I am building to truly bring change and peace to those that are suffering and in need of direction for their lives. Perhaps she can help you as you go through your day and week, recite the mantra, “om tare tuttare ture soha” and allow her to bring you peace and the ability to open your mind to higher consciousness.

Love & Light

Namaste 🙂

September 14th: My GGAQ’s & The Numerology of 14

“Gardening is not outcome-oriented. A successful harvest is not the end of a gardener’s existence, but only a phase of it. As any gardener knows, the vitality of a garden does not end with a harvest. It simply takes another form. Gardens do not ‘die’ in the winter but quietly prepare for another season.”
― James P. CarseFinite and Infinite Games

 

Good morning,
Today is Friday and it’s also the 14th of the month – I wanted to share a passage about this number from a site that has a lot of good information on Numerology and it’s relation to the tarot. Since I’m lacking the thought process today I felt this would be a good article to share and for you to be thinking about this number over the weekend as I believe it holds some very important aspects for life for you and me!
Love & Light
Namaste 🙂

The Symbolic Meaning of Number 14

The 14th card of the Tarot is called either Temperance or The Angel of Time. The image on the Temperance card reveals an angelic being bearing a golden goblet in each hand, pouring water from one goblet to the other, signifying a process of inner transformation.

Another curious detail of this card is that the Angel of Time is standing in front of the gates to the Underworld. We know the gates behind the Angel of Time lead to the Underworld because the next card in the Major Arcana series is The Devil.

It is as if the Angel of Time has appeared to reassure us as we prepare to hazard the depths in our pursuit of spiritual realization.

Balance, Harmony and Number 14

The Angel of Time on the Temperance card is pouring the water of the past into the goblet of our present day experience. This refers to a process of integrating past attitudes and impulses into our present mental and emotional experience. This is a reconciliation of sorts, resulting in a transformational process that brings about a strong, healthy and integrated personality.

Karma and the Future Pull of 14

The waters of the past that are being poured from one goblet to another in the Tarot card Temperance may be thought of as karmic debt, which ‘tempers’ the process of our spiritual development. This is why the number 14 is often associated with processes of cosmic debt.

Numerologists often warn people who have the number 14 in their chart that this idea of cosmic debt may make their present activities heavy with ‘throwing karma.’ Throwing karma is the power an event to ‘throw’ us into negative results.

Therefore, people who have the number 14 in their chart should always be careful about their life choices.

The karmic challenge for people who are influenced by the number 14 may be associated with the conflicting impulses that are sure to be a part of their nature.

The ability to integrate conflicting impulses and put them to the service of unity and achievement is the challenge for those who are influenced by the number 14.

September 6th – GGAQ’s & Thoughts on Transition & Direction

Today’s Quote“All transitions are composed of an ending, a neutral zone, and a new beginning” ~ William Bridges
Good morning,
Today’s theme is on transition and change – life has been one change after another for my life over the past several months. I was thinking the other day how much this has brought about in my life, I have literally thrown away old attachments, both physical and mental. There has been a sense of freedom and liberation from not having so much “stuff” to contend with, there is also a sense of loss though – When you remove the old and familiar there tends to be a void that you want to fill. This neutral zone is when you learn to grow and change your mental capacities.
The void can be scary and even terrifying, but then I began to think, yes, but look at all the new opportunities that are now available to me and the freedom of choice. There is a lot of joy that can be brought on by mentally being OK with the loss and moving into the new that there is for one’s life. When you know there is a change needed, how do you deal with it? How do you best remove it, and what then takes the place of the removed item, physical or mental?
It’s important to take careful aim at the things that are coming within a transition period. How will you deal and where do you desire to go? I have given this much thought and honestly it really unsettles me and causes this flailing of sorts. Your mind tends to drive it’s self in circles trying to figure out the why and how of things when that’s not it’s purpose. To live a life true to ourselves and true to our inner wisdom and guidance we have to trust in the transitions of life, to leave the unfamiliar and to embrace the new and uncertain.
Think about it, at one time the familiar was unfamiliar and you didn’t trust it, then over time with experience and trying it on for size it became what it is now, a comfortable thing in which you rely. However is it good to keep holding on? Is it limiting you from the life you see in your mind and the one you are supposed to be living? I ask myself this a lot and it’s definitely challenging but it’s also incredibly freeing when you no longer are able to hold onto the old and you jump confidently into your new life. Stop hiding and being ashamed of who you are, be bold and be courageous – point your bow confidently and shoot your arrow with intention and accept the new and uncertain transition.
Love & Light
Namaste 🙂

September 5th – GGAQ’s & Thoughts on A Balanced Life

Today’s Quote: In reaching for balance, we find alignment. ~ Sue Krebs
Good afternoon/evening,
I found myself asking, how is it already Wednesday? My goodness how the days fly by… I’m somehow always struggling with slowing down and just being in the moment rather than always having my thoughts on the future or the past, it’s actually really hard to do. For the first time of working on this for well over a year I finally had a moment in which I was present – it was so calming.
It’s a very powerful alignment, balancing the mind, wow, how challenging is that? Remember when you first where able to ride your bike without the help of someone or without those training wheels? How freeing and exhilarating that was! Balancing your life can be the same way, as I had experienced for a brief moment the other day. It made me wonder, if this is possible, how do you experience more of it in ALL areas so that you begin to live in harmony with the chaos that live is?
That’s a big question and one that makes you really begin to analyze your life and your daily decisions that are being made. It definitely called into question some details of my life that have been a literal struggle my whole life. However, as I have worked through these aspects it begun to give me a new appreciation for the true inner wisdom there is to pull from when you are faced with difficulties in life. There is a clarity and correctness in your decisions when you listen to your inner wisdom.
Perhaps this clarity has come in the two forms that I have been asking for. They come in the form of meditation daily and asking for clarity and insight to questions I have been asking recently. I have posted these to my blog so you can read through them and see my journey as I seek a new life that’s in alignment to my life’s purpose. It’s fascinating to see how that living in harmony and balance can yield so much good in life and thus the ego dies a little more.
Love & Light
Namaste

I was staying up late watching this massive thunder storm move over Denver, the lighting was intense! I was right on the edge up in the mountains and the stars where so clear above me, and then there was this crazy storm rage on the other side of me. There was this small little fox that started hanging around while I was cooking dinner and Nicki kept chasing it off, he must have smelled the good chicken and Egg plant I was grilling up for dinner!
