Carla Rueckert: Living with the Chakra System (Part II)

• The outer heart - green / heart chakra
  • Integrating the shadow self into the heart ("Know Thyself, part 2")
    • Temple of heart is where mind becomes known to self
    • We have darkness, violence within ourselves with which we must reckon
    • We psychically negatively greet ourselves!
    • Ritual can help: confession, absolution
    • Honesty can show shadow self
    • Everything in self has merit, contains information about self that needs conservation, understanding, etc.
    • All parts of self are worthy, but one needs to love, redeem and accept them
    • Knowing self is scary and uncomfortable
  • Judgement, overcoming and patience
    • Judgement becomes a distraction
    • FORGIVENESS OF SELF
    • The work is hard
    • Patience and compassion for self / otherself is a long process
    • Demonstrating love for others = demonstrating love for self
    • "Tell world your story" - be completely vulnerable
    • The temple of the heart is guarded against premature entry
    • Heart is a source of tremendous power once it is unblocked
    • Forgiveness and acceptance is the key
    • Freedom to love = freedom from need to judge / condemn
    • Letting go of fear
    • Rest is important
• The inner heart - green / heart chakra
  • Working directly with love
    • Exercises
      • Where is the love in the moment?
      • Look into another self's eyes: see the creator
      • Look in the mirror: see the creator
      • Look at the creation (everything): see the creator
    • Balance brain work with intuition and love
    • Sexuality can be ennobled and made sacred through green ray work
      • Pure red / orange sexual experience is fleeting
      • Great potential in green ray sexual exchange
      • This exchange takes work
  • Healing
    • Heal from / within the heart
    • Draw power / guidance from green ray
    • Green ray exchange / sharing of energy is involved in healing
      • The healer offers an environment in which person can be healed / heals self
      • Must maintain attitude of non-judgement
      • Unconditional radiation of pure love / light that goes where needed
      • Healer must be unblocked to radiate best
• The blue / throat chakra
  • Honesty / open communication
  • Work on honesty with self to be honest to others
  • Is it useful to teach?
    • Yes - teach what you are learning
  • Is it useful to teach without being asked?
    • No - pure radiation is most helpful
    • Talk about what you know if asked
    • Serve when requested
• The indigo / brow chakra
  • Meditation
    • Body not used to meditation, used to activity
    • Set aside time daily - takes about a month to get in a routine
    • Backlog of messages from the subconscious
    • Many ways to work in consciousness
    • Acknowledge dark / dissonant /chaotic voices, accept them as self
    • Prerequisite to consciousness work: open heart
  • Take responsibility for your thoughts
    • Discipline of mind = crystalizing self / chakras
    • People come together to crystalize with others
    • ritual / white magic - patterns of activity / thinking / speaking to signal subconscious for consciousness work
  • What do you desire?
    • Study your desires - they offer clues to understanding self
    • listen to small voice
  • What is your service?
    • Radiation of love / light is only service
    • Every specific service is a form of this
• The violet / crown chakra
  • Contact with intelligent infinity
    • mystery
