A Message for This Year's Wesak Celebration of
the Scorpio Full Moon

By Sheldan Nidle (Representative: Galactic Federation of Light and The Spiritual Hierarchy)

This year's Wesak celebration marks the time when this realm will become linked to Heaven. During this special interval, a number of important energy exchanges are meant to occur that will declare the dawn of a new era of freedom for all Humanity. At the forefront of these events will be a special proclamation, issued by the Ascended Masters, to the peoples of Earth. In it, the Ascended Masters will reveal "a new era of divine peace for Earth". In this new period of divine harmony and gracious cooperation, humankind will end its lust for war and  realize that peace can, indeed, bring about a better humanity. The process will be facilitated by the return of many Ascended Masters, whose task it will be to show you how to manifest A new era of peace and prosperity.

Comte de Saint-Germain has said:

"Let this full moon serve as a blazing lantern in the Heavens. Let it be the sign that you are entering a new reality. Know in your hearts that this is so, and that we come to assist you in your efforts. Our help will take many forms. The most important of them will banish governments that have set up obstacles to peace and spread chaos and disorder. Moreover, untold  abundance is about to manifest in this realm. Its sole purpose is to ensure the  triumph of this new reality. You are divine Children of Light. You have come not  just to suffer, but to use your talents to better this realm. Our task, when it is divinely revealed, will be to manifest before you what you will require for your many, sacred missions.

This is a time when a prodigious series of miracles will set  you free. Use them to do what Heaven asks of you. Do it in Joy, and in full use of your many true talents! Realize in your hearts that what is unfolding is only a small part of your sacred mission. That mission will unite the peoples of
your world. It will turn your reality upside down and seem, to the great majority, like magic. You should see it merely  as a singular, heavenly  gift. This gift is bestowed only to  assure you that your success is truly inevitable! Let these events manifest, not through any negative feelings
buried deep within your emotional body, but only through the limitless, positive energy found in your integrated, Loving body."

These events are occurring despite the great chaos (war and terrorism) that surrounds us. It is important for  all of us to know that this world is changing, and that its unprecedented transformation is beginning to become evident to us all. Let us, in good conscience, step forward and support our communities, and our brother and sisters, in achieving this great change.

Finally, be aware that the wishes of the spiritual realms are mirrored by the actions of the physical. Your space families wish you to know that we have initiated a first contact mission and that it is part of the divine intervention of Heaven. Your space kin have come from afar to carry out the sacred decrees issued by Heaven.

This first contact mission has two main purposes: First, to restore you to full consciousness, and second, to enable each of you to become a full-fledged member of the Galactic Federation of Light. These tasks have been entwined with the desires of the Ascended Masters. Your first contact has become a prolonged, yet most unique, operation. Now, it is reaching the stage where its purposes, finally, can be realized. We are elated at this prospect, and rejoice in the fact that soon, we shall freely walk among you!

This process will achieve unimaginable new heights during the Wesak celebration. Use these moments to move forward and realize your goals. Know deeply that what is occurring is not only divine, but also part of the greattransformation that is swiftly moving you from limited to full
consciousness. Be reverent in your attention to your duties, but accomplish them out of the irrepressible Joy that lies within!   Selamat Gajun! Selamat Kasijaram!
(Sirian for Be One! Be Blessed in Love and in Joy!)

And on a more earthly note, here is an article from the Wall Street Journal on meditation benefits scientifically proven.  It was forwarded to me by my good friend, Marsha Green.
 
Western science has finally begun to confirm what the wisdom traditions of the Orient have known for millennia: that meditation practice literally and physically improves your brain behavior.

Robert Felix, author of "The Partners Within", has been educating on the healing power of prayer and meditation to overcome destructive emotions for the last decade. Now several scientific studies are converging to confirm this idea. As recently reported in the Wall Street Journal Science column (1/10/2003), studies at the University of Wisconsin confirmed that "meditation, Buddhist or otherwise, might change the brain and, in particular, its emotional circuitry."

The focus of these studies was on the brain structure called the amygdala. This is a little almond-shaped center that is located deep in the brain and it has been shown to be involved with the negative emotions such as fear, anger, anxiety and depression. This emotional center needs to be modulated by the prefrontal cortex; when it is not, its negative emotions can snowball into destructive behavior patterns. The psychiatric community commonly treats these poor states of mental health with neuroplastic drugs such as seratonin uptake inhibitors (Prozac and Zoloft etc.) with mixed success.

But now, according to Sharon Begley, placebo-controlled clinical studies are suggesting, "Meditation strengthens connections between the prefrontal cortex and the amygdala. Inhibitory signals from the prefrontal cortex appear to rein in the amygdala like a good yank on a kite string. The stronger or more numerous those "stop firing!" signals, the stronger the inhibition." Indeed "It appears that the inhibitory signal reaching the amygdala can be modulated voluntarily," says Prof. Richard Davidson, of the University of Wisconsin.

Most importantly, Ms. Begley continues, "The plasticity of connections between the thinking and feeling regions of the brain casts doubt on the belief that each of us has a "set point" for happiness, and that neither a Powerball win nor a life tragedy budges it for long. If inhibitory connections between the frontal lobes and the amygdala can be strengthened in an enduring way, then perhaps you can voluntarily shift that point, increasing our capacities for happiness, fulfillment and for actualizing our own unique human and higher powers."
