True Peace is Blissful by Ron Alexander

 
As a younger person, I was not that much interested in peace, as I thought that it would be boring.
Reaching peace in meditation and prayer, I find just the opposite. Peace can be soaring bliss, joyous love.
PEACE TO THE BODY - all the way to the cells - no anxiety, no stress, no worry, no hurry.
PEACE TO THE HEART - a peaceful heart open to give and receive love.
 PEACE TO THE SOUL - soaring in bliss
MAY ALL BEINGS HAVE PEACE!               
One must live mindfully to have abundant hour to hour peace. In that hour, those anxious moments can be stopped by Awareness - sensory and mentally leading to calming the emotions. Breathing consciously really helps CHOOSE PEACE!  Ron Alexander

 
Peace is not an idea--peace is a way of life. It is fresh and new with every moment." Claude AnShin Thomas

    Biorhythm = Divine Timing/Order?


     

    I had an interesting day. I was very disappointed to have insomnia last night for the first time in a while. Well, after reading myself to sleep a couple of times in the wee hours of the AM, I just finally got up at 5:30, got online for awhile. Then I went ahead with my morning ritual fixing tea while eating an apple. I was still hungry so went ahead with my great breakfast of oatmeal, different types of dried fruit, assorted nuts plus organic graham cracker covered with peanut butter. I decided to forego the tea, as I did not want to get caffeinated that early. However, I did go back to bed at 7:30, as I was feeling exhausted. The phone rang at 9:30, the time I was to pick up a sailor friend to go to a boat/junk yard to look for nautical treasures. I did find a fine Bruce anchor there and friend found a good teak rope ladder. However I found myself still exhausted and tried to shore up at Earthfare, a health food store and restaurant. However,  I was still tired afterwards and there was Veterans sail in the afternoon. I went sailing on a brusque windy day, and my expertise was needed as the other two crew members were disabled pretty much by age and by physical disabilities. The sail really invigorated me, and afterwards I used that energy to juice carrots, kale, broccoli, ginger, coconut water and aloe vera. I have just finished a glass of it, and froze the rest for the next few days. And now, I am here back at the computer.
    I find that if I am fatiqued, I need to just go with it and rest - my body is telling me this. And trust with patience that my energy will come around when I need it the most. Therefore, I do think that Biorhythm and Divine Timing are closely related anyway! Listening to your body is akin to listening to God - who resides in the Body Temple!

    Honey, My accidental Soul Dog

     
     Honey, My Accidental Soul Dog
    Ron Alexander


    About thirty something years ago, I had learned
    about the art and technique of visualization.  They were using it a lot in sports, where the athlete would picture successful plays in their minds.  It was found that their performance would increase sometimes dramatically.  They still use this technique today.
         I was lonely living out on "Kayoss" in Taylor Creek at Beaufort, N.C.(wild horses on other bank).  So, I decided to visualize a woman I wanted in my life.  At that time, hair color meant a lot to me, so I pictured a strawberry blonde with a slender but shapely body. Back then, I weighed considerably less.
        Forgot why, but I had a trip to Oriental(another sailboat-oriented town named after shipwrecked Chinese who settled there) going on a few days, after starting this "picturing what you want" process.  Driving on the ferry, I noticed this very happy looking black-faced golden puppy greeting everyone coming out of their cars.  I got out and she came bounding up to me.  It was love at first sight.  I asked the crew aboard the vessel - "who owns this puppy?"  The mate answered: "Don't know but we got to get rid of her, as this is state property."  I replied that I would take her to Oriental with me, and when I came back to the ferry in a few hours, that if I still liked her and nobody had coming looking for her, I would keep her."
        Honey became a great boat companion.  I have never seen a dog who liked boats so much.  Sometimes, she would lie down in the sailing dinghy until I took her sailing.  And Dolphins, they appeared to be really interested in her and her high-pitched yelp.  This was good for my charter business, as these waterborne mammals seemed to be bored with us humans.  I would always asked the boat guests if Honey was welcomed, and the few times that she was denied a sunset gourmet cruise, she would run up and down Taylor Creek following our journey from land yelping all the time.  She was also known for being one of six dogs that followed the postman around.  She would disappear for a few hours one day every week.  Near the end of our time here, I ran into this young woman, finding out that Honey was my dog, told me that she took her home for steak once every week.  Honey was doing a lot better than me.
        Honey sailed West with me, and ended up working with life-threatened kids, as she had that "dog spelled backwards" unconditional love and sensitivity that was soothing and healing.  When in a circle with these kids, she would wait out in the middle, until she somehow figured the kid in the most grief, and she went to them to lie not at their feet but on their feet.
    They loved it and her. 
        Honey was with me for twelve years, dying in my arms peacefully in California.  I hauled her carcass up to the top of a sacred mountain overlooking San Francisco Bay.  She is buried where we used to go howl at the moon and marvel at the sight.  She has never left my heart however, and many others say the same.  She is crossing her paws in the photo looking like the regal canine that she was... I will always be sailing with Honey in my heart.  If you have not figured it out yet, she was the "strawberry blonde" that I was visualizing.  I found out you have to be very specific in the picturing process.  Glad I did not know that then!

    Mary Rose Winkler Spectacular, you drew this Ron? Wow, you have got talent and I love it... you go guy... there must be tons of places where you are that would be honored to hang your precious gifts to display to the world... let me know how/if I can help in any way dear man and thank you for being you Ron
    Ron Alexander Oh no, Mary Rose Winkler, I had an illustrator - Chad Chrysler, however he sold me all of his originals, because my children's book was about the Golden Rules - not just the Christian one, which he got upset about. The dog is Honey, who was quite a sailor and quite a healer too! She flew out to California, where she helped me working with life-threatened kids at Jerry Jampolsky's Center for Attitudinal mainly based on ACIM principles. Remember his book LOVE IS LETTING Go of Fear?

    Ron Alexander Oh, Mary Rose Winkler, actually we were chanting and drumming on top of Ring Mountain. Our best "chant" was deep belly laughing by a 70 plus woman who lived on a boat with her husband in Sausalito! Thanks again for your compliments, however Honey was by far the best counselor between us!

    Meow-Meow passes

    Hi Ron,

    We missed our call yesterday evening...my precious old cat made her
    transition Sunday and I have been dealing with a heavy heart and
    sadness. It was peaceful and nearly perfect. I wished for my little
    companion that she would fall asleep but she aged and had some chronic
    issues. She is reunited with my mom, who manifested in multiple ways
    over the last few weeks to let me know she was ready to welcome Meow
    Meow into the heavenly realm.

    Meow Meow was my mom's cat - she came from a shelter and we never knew
    her history other than that somebody obviously loved her before. When
    Mom transitioned, I adopted/inherited her and we shared nearly six
    years of an intimate and beautiful loving relationship. She was an
    angel, heaven on earth, followed me about, underfoot, talked to me and
    used to sleep with me. I know you understand....she was my buddy,
    companion, and love object. Alma is my other cat and she is younger and
    a sweet cat, too. Our bond is also deep and she is happy to be getting
    more attention now.

    I am in a period of adjustment and I miss MM with all my heart. I also
    feel a sense of relief since she required a lot of care and I managed
    my life around her! Like having a child...I chose not to have children
    and cats are my family of choice.

    My life is changing...there is more symbolism to her passing and I am
    releasing some limiting beliefs and boundaries.

    I am holding affirmations, prayer and vision for your health,
    prosperity, and abundance high in my consciousness and look forward to
    our next call. We are scheduled for next week. I am traveling this week
    but do have some time on Wednesday if you would like to meet.

    With love, gratitude and appreciation for all of God's creatures.

    Nancy, Meow Meow (in photo) and Alma
     
     
     
    Dear Nancy, Ah, that is a warm beautiful compassionate story. Sweet photo too!
     I was dealing with some anger at the way this homeless vet. was conning me, so I went to a matinee and watched a sad yet very compassionate movie called Labor Day. It has a rather happy ending, however overall it is a sad poignant drama about an older romance. Anyway, it left me rather melancholy about my older Monkish celebate style of life.

    Valentine Message from Nancy - Meow Meow and Honey

     

    Nancy is my Prayer Partner from a long distance in miles but short in smiles!
    Dear Ron,
    
    Honey's soul is now part of me and my feline soul family. Oh  what a 
    touching and beautiful memorial to her and those whose life she will 
    always touch.
    After our phone conversation. She is beautiful and precious... I felt 
    like I knew her as we spoke earlier this evening.
    
    I attended an evening session on Buddha's teachings at an interfaith 
    unity center tonight...Buddha's principles were talked about and also 
    attachments, self imposed suffering. In a prayer for peace we brought 
    to mind a simple, loving relationship for human or animal being (living 
    or in the beyond) and all the unconditional loving feelings we had for 
    that being...I brought to mind Meow Meow and cradled the memory of her 
    warm, breathing body in my arms for the prayer.
    
    The prayer was for: peace and love; safety from harm; strength and 
    perfect health; and to live a noble life. After that prayer for our 
    loved one, the same prayer was for ourselves...so I prayed for all the 
    same things for myself. The next prayer was for someone in our life we 
    felt needed our prayer...that was for you. Then, a prayer for someone 
    who was a "thorn in our side" with the same loving wishes was made. 
    Finally, a prayer for peace for all living things was the grande finale.
    
    Until we meet again, may love, wonder and prosperity embrace you and be 
    yours and be you.
    
    Love and blessings, Nancy
