Will You Let Me Share Some Hope?

Posted by lima5ive

Hope breeds appreciation. Appreciation breeds gratitude. Gratitude breeds resilience. Resilience gives you the capacity to live a fearless, innocent and joyous life.

There is so much in the world today that is challenging and downright seemingly horrific. Yet there so much hope, kindness and compassion. So here is my story.

I have been able to teach, or truly awaken what is already known at this wonderful true community at Urban Yoga in Evanston, Illinois. It’s a small intimate group, but a very amazing group with astonishing teachers.

Many things happened in this week, but I got the download that we were to do something to stretch them. The fires broke out with their hellish red vengeance in Northern California, so I thought, “Let’s do a Yogi Bhajan-style fundraiser.” More on that in a minute.

I described the concept of giving to pave the road with gold for their future endeavors in sharing these teachings. They got it.

Then I spoke of the fact that these fires broke out during our last week’s training and we could be a cooling influence on those fires. We could be part of the energy to extinguish the pain. They go that too.

Then I said, “Ok, who wants to contribute money to a fund that will come from Urban Yoga’s Teachers Training class of 2017?” They got that too and climbed onboard.

I then asked who would start off stating out loud their donation amount. I got a very enthusiastic $5. I knew I had more work to do. That wasn’t going to fly.

I wanted to inspire their vast capacity to give, not berate it. So, I spoke of what Yogi Bhajan did with us when we had nothing.

This is the Yogi Bhajan model. At a Solstice, or some large gathering, he would either need money for some cause he wanted to invest in, or someone we never really knew (it didn’t really matter). He called it Bhetta. He defined Bhetta as selfless giving without being attached to the result.

He would get us to give. Give vast amounts for nothing. People would parade up with $1000 and $5000 checks and $50 checks. Now he would have square, or stripe, ready and waiting if he was still doing this.

He inspired and cajoled and teased us out of millions but… truly he woke up our giving prosperity cycle—our being got called on to lean in and push on the prosperity button.

I told these stories and then said, “Let’s start again. “Who will give $100? We got several hands, then some for $200, then $40, $50 and then $100 again, $135, and then the first $5 doubled his initial offering. In a few minutes with 11 of us, we raised $1,205 in pledges to be paid the next day.

The next day, after breakfast, I sat with the magical wooden zebra bowl in front of me and it started to fill up. No resistance anywhere in sight. Some even gave more than they pledged. We (yes, it’s we), brought in $1,357. That was so amazing to see and feel what love and inspiration can do. But wait…

There is more. The two amazing women who run Urban Yoga had decided between them that they would, yes, they would match whatever amount we gathered in this zebra-striped love bowl. When they said that, we cried and they cried.

The money was amazing, but in truth, for me, it was getting to the intent of who and what we truly are as teachers. We are the ones who get to live in the discomfort zone on so many levels because…

•     we GET to say yes to Soul first.

•     we get to say yes to heart connecting.

•     we get to say yes, yes, yes when we get it.

•     we get to say yes to breaking the confining barriers of oppressive limitations—true Freedom for the moment at least… then a longer moment till it is ours.

How we get to do that appears every moment or every day. Some days we answer with more ease and grace than others. Yet we will always get back up and face the little terrorist that lives within and without us, and hopefully, sometimes, maybe most times, remember to laugh and see what we can do together.

If You Love the Sun, Open This

Posted by Alvin 
· August 28, 2017

What is sooo special about this sun of ours? Oh, let me count the ways it loves us.

1.      Necessary to grow everything.

2.      Creates warmth, sometimes a little too much

3.      For many, it is your wake-up call

4.      Vitamin D

5.      Sun gazing at sunrises and sunsets

Endless other things. Please name your top 5 Sun Gifts

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

We know that as the climate warms, we are getting more intense sunlight. As the ozone layer thins, the Sun’s influence gets stronger and you burn more easily. I got to see this on my last trip to Akumal Mexico. This was our 4th trip there and I have never burned before. I burned royally. I had to wear long (not cute) mens swim trunks. My oceanic love trumped the burn, so the ugly trunks were the compromise with my beloved Keith. They worked and I don’t care what people think or I would have stopped wearing a turban long ago. All I’m saying is the sun was different, and, yes, I had been there in May, 6 years ago, and no burn. So, things are heating up.

We do this dance with the Sun each day, and over a period of a year, we get closer and farther away. We rotate into it and away from it each day. We need this Sun of ours. This light-being who reminds us to stay lit, to be the light, and, yes, even to compete for who is the brightest.

This poem came to me the other day.

Sometimes Sunshine Makes Me….

Happy, slow, yearning

open to your embrace

I arise, arms lifting wide and possible

to feel your kiss as

Icarus did

sucking your warmth

hope

promises of

being embraced forever

held, healed

buttered, battered

fry me

make a warm offering

of me

to all who come to your altar.

Watch this, my love:

If you can’t be the Sun, be the lover of the Sun. Otherwise, how will you ever be able to stand up and be the light in your life and the life of those around you?

I salute your courage to say, yes, to building habits that serve you—not the ones that suck your life force out of you. Yes, a life of feeding your light—not your anxiety. Go out and stand in the sunlight during your lunch hour and soak it in. 12-1 is the best time to get the vitamin D and feel the healing light of the sun. Come on for 15 minutes. Take your lunch and eat it in the sunlight. Soak in this gift of light and healing that is necessary for all to grow, and, yes, that means us too. Store it up for the Winter time.

Wahe Guru Love to You,

Gurutej

What the @!%%&&

Which will you choose, Anxiety or Calm? Take a moment. Which one? Which one do you usually choose? Consciously or unconsciously? What tools do you have to switch you from anxiety (acceptable in society) to calm.

So many people are afraid that if they lose their anxiety they will also lose their drive. I have had people tell me they are afraid of meditation and getting to a place of calm, or worse yet, a place of blank mind. They think they will forget everything they know. They are afraid they will lose their edge—that famous edge that most people are powered by. Caffeine, sugar, stress and lots of anxiety is what we often power our divine being with. They work together as an amazing triumvirate. They are in charge of your life. Yep, you don’t choose them. You did that long ago, but see if you can just say no to them all and stay away from them!!! If you can’t, then they own you. You are addicted to keeping your anxiety alive and well.

If you should want to change that relationship, then please take 5 minutes and watch this. Don’t just watch it, do it and then commit to creating 1, just one, new habit that can expand your calm. Don’t worry about anxiety. If you leave your bad friends behind (The caffeine, sugar, and stress) and embrace this meditation, even for just 3 minutes 2x/day, you will see a big difference in just 40 days. Sound like a long time? Think of all the things you have done for 40 days. No problem.

Watch this and see if there are gifts for you inside 5 minutes max:

Love You and Blessings,

Gurutej

Birth of a Nation, Birth of You

Posted by Alvin 
· August 27, 2017 
· No Comments

 

Wahe Guru which, translated, means the beyond ecstasy, ecstatic, wisdom of the seen and unseen truth, you can claim your rebirth with that of your nation.

Birth and rebirth are always deep, challenging, timeless, awakening, vast, and so much more. Why not use this time of honoring the hard fought release from underneath the crushing power of an oppressor or what feels like oppression at that time? Your rebirth can be that as well. What, not who, is oppressing you?

Look into that with eyes and heart wide open.

Watch this video and do the meditation. Maybe you will say “Yes” to 40 days or 90 days of 120 days or even, yes, 1,000 consecutive days to claim this change.

Your rebirth can shift the planet. You can be the next Buddha, the next St. Theresa, or Mai Bhago. Say yes to doing something that will shift you in a direction your soul longs for.

I love and honor and hold you Wahe Guru.

Blessings to your courage to be reborn,

Gurutej

Cycles of Life: Use Them or Be Used by Them

Posted by Alvin 
· August 27, 2017 
· No Comments

Don’t we love the cycles we love and the ones we don’t … grrrr? We wish we could make the yummy ones last forever and the challenging ones vanish at our command. Yet we all know in some often hidden part of our being that when we are in a challenged place it will end and something not quite as challenging or more challenging or blissful will follow. Nothing is permanent.

Some cycles seem to last for a lifetime but in all infinity that is a nimic, a fraction of a second. The real question is how can we use cycles while inside of them as opposed to feeling whipped around by them? Claiming what we can learn from inside these cycles. That only happens when we relax and open instead of resisting them. The old saying of what we resist persists is Oh, so true.

We, Keith and I, were talking about the lives of Jerry Lee Lewis and Chuck Berry and what they played out. Their amazing lives and all their convoluted desires and lust. I have no problems with lust and desire. We need a lust for life or life is dry and tasteless like sawdust. We need to know the desire that is running our life and the one we want to be running our lives. Do you know that?

1.What desire is currently running your life? Take a moment or a lifetime and answer that … keep answering it.

2. What desire would you like to be running your life? These are probably not the same often not even close.

Then please watch this video so we can connect more deeply.

Blessings,

Gurutej

Embrace Courage, Heal Disease

Posted by Alvin 
· August 27, 2017 
· No Comments

Courage, wow, that is the stuff you are made of plus the juicy steel part. As I put the subject copy in I had to change the order. I had Heal Disease, Embrace Courage but realized it was the other way round. I bow to listening.

Right now the world and I’m sure many other aspects of your life is in your face. If we thought things couldn’t get any faster or more hectic, or crazed or colliding explosive ideas of how things should be then welcome to this corridor where we get squeezed as we go into the Aquarian age.

Dis-ease literally means our lack of ease has popped up somewhere in our physical, or mental or emotional, or soul body. It is asking us to pay the #$^^%& attention. Every day in every way I am more……. Fill in your blank.

If you don’t love what you are filling in your blanks with, please for God’s sake for your sake change the word, the thought, the…..Your filler counts.

Trust me I have been getting so many people with such addictions whether it’s to drugs and I mean DRUGS, or miserable abusive marriages, or jobs they HATE, or entities running their lives.

I’m begging you listen to this line I read in the Siri Guru Granth today. “ I am at ease for I have realized that everywhere I go YOU are there.” So simple as truth is. Once you get this there is nothing else to get. Literally nothing. So sit with this beautiful realization and make it your own. Lay down your dis ease embrace the ease. You can always pick it back up if you must. It will be awaiting you if you call it back hopefully you won’t feel that need.

Watch this video and do this meditation if you are ready my love.

Love to you Wahe Guru,

Gurutej

Do You Feel More….

Posted by Alvin 
· August 27, 2017 
· No Comments

Do you feel more Earth or Ether? We usually have more of one. It’s like flexibility and strength. Those who have the strength want the flexibility and vice versa. We always get to work or embrace the one we don’t really have an abundance of. the same is true with earth and ether.

Those with more ether can download more subtle information, maybe see fairies and other beings but have much more of a challenge being of the earth, earning money, staying grounded, not being effected by everything. Those with more Earth can navigate things here, planet earth very well, thank you, but you may feel Feung Shui, crystals, vegans are really out there and the unseen ha!

My mother used to say she wished she could put a couple of her children in a jar and shake them up. I never knew what she was talking about so one time I asked her what that meant. She answered. “ Some of you have so much of one thing that the others are totally lacking and they have something you don’t have.” Thus putting us in a jar and allowing us to rub off on each other.

This is one reason I want to encourage you to do something wonderful this week. Go hang out with some people that are totally unlike you. Some people who will rip you open with different ways of thinking. I won’t say it will be enjoyable but it could be. It will be life expanding if you allow it.

The across the aisle thing the congress speaks of. Walk into some place that you would never go. Pacifists go into a gun store not to protest but to inquire. Trump supporters go speak with someone who thinks he is an ass. These and thousands of other categories that you can break down and be willing to see the other side. Or go to a protest you don’t believe in to see what those people think and why.

Then watch this video and do the meditation with me.​​​​​​​

Love to you Wahe Guru,

Gurutej

Ready to Lose the Anxiety?

Posted by Alvin 
· August 27, 2017 
· No Comments

If you know you have been carrying this burden of insecurity and anxiety around for way too long, then you are ready to drop it and cash it in for something better.

Trust me, I’m a Vatta and Vattas are more prone to anxiety than Pittas or Kaphas. That thin body type that runs on nervous energy and loses sleep at the drop of a hat can really get anxious at the drop of a hat… or turban.

So, I wanted to share what I do when anxiety comes knocking at my door, for we will always have our traits that will return to roost. It’s only if you keep inviting them in that matters.

I’m not saying, bolt the door. I’m saying, feed that calm, feed the trust, feed that which you may not be seeing. See it for what it truly is and be willing most of all—willing to shift your perspective.

Watch this video my love and see if it speaks to you:

Blessings and Deep Breaths Today Love,

What Stops You?

Posted by Alvin 
· August 27, 2017 
· No Comments

 

Have you ever noticed what stops you? We all get stopped sometimes and whether we notice this or not only just differs on how long we are stopped and for what reason.

 

How long does it take you to restart your engine?

 

What do you do to get back up that is not submitting to an addiction?

 

Here is one of the things I do. I write. I allow the Beloved to rip through me.

 

The Ultimate Game

by Gurutej

 

The ultimate game

is not to run off with someone else’s

golden ball or castel

but to gather your own courage

like a multilayered dancing skirt

and mount that raging bronco

the Divine has sent

to throw you about

with such wild love

and energy

till you say

I surrender

Let the laughter rip

RIP

Die to fear.

 

To awaken truly, we get to lose that which stands like a huge massive bucking bronco in our doorway—our doorway to life—challenging us to mount it, or back off and be trampled to death.

Awakening is not something you can do by yourself often. It is something you “get to be” supported in. There are many awakening along the way, not just in one big bang. So, invite YOU to see what bull is standing in your way at this moment and say yes to using that energy to awaken YOU.

Love to You and Wahe Guru,

Gurutej

Love Is Love

Posted by Alvin 
· August 27, 2017

To me, love takes extreme courage and, at the same time, no courage at all, just the ability to surrender and become fearless at the thought of becoming nothing. And so, I share one of my dives into Love’s Embrace. The desire to find TRUE LOVE in this moment, in each moment.

 

Surrender to Innocence

by Gurutej

So many doorways that seem

unseen…

Yet…

some reveal themselves

in oddly-lit places.

In beds

and hills

and blades of sharp grasses,

bound by all my trappings

so tightly held together

with pins and

staples

and all manner of

odd wrappings and twine.

You, with one finger

twirled me,

spun me,

till all the trappings

fell away.

I lay naked,

exhausted,

at peace,

heaving from all

the spinning on the tip

of your one glorious

finger.

Yes, your puppet.

Yes, your lover.

Yes, your…

Who can say?

Words evade

the emptiness of peace,

the softness,

the abandon caresses…

A flash of yes.

With that I share… Love always trumps Hate, yes, and now with even more chances than ever to show that. Play your heart card with fierce courage and with eyes blazingly open with a light heart.

Love is showing up.

Love is getting to calm before you speak.

Love is being on the same side not taking sides.

Love is seeing possibilities not just perspectives.

Love is the antidote to Hate.

Love is Joy.

Stay with me for my relationships guidelines. Trust me, I too get to remind and follow them. I have learned not to speak from frustration, no matter how right… Ha! What a silly concept, right? It means there must be a wrong. The just being…. given such a great view and possibility to love.

Love and Blessings to You and Wahe Guru,

Gurutej
