Showtime!

Some time ago I saw the movie “All That Jazz” about the life of dancer/chorographer Bob Fossi, who, always before a show, would look in the mirror, do “jazz hands” and say, “Showtime!” to put himself in the right frame of mind to give his best performance.

Being a musician, I realized that just thinking “Showtime!” was a good practice for me so that I could “put my best foot forward”  for the audience’s enjoyment, but then I realized that this could also be a reminder to radiate joy wherever I was.  Maybe people will wonder why you’re smiling, but maybe you will move their consciousness to joy, if only for an instant, and because of your consciousness, there will be more love and joy in the collective consciousness.

Time to put on a great show in your life, don’t you think?

Radiating Joy – Silent Laughing

Here’s a quick and quiet way to radiate joy as a blessing to all – laugh silently.  Laugh “in your head”.  Laugh with no reason at all as if something is hilarious.  And imagine that everyone is laughing with you.  You know what unconditional love is. This is unconditional joy. It’s a very powerful practice that can be done any time anywhere.

The inner mantra: Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha!

Go through your day laughing silently and radiating joy.

It’s loads of fun.

Your Super Powers – Haniel

Remember, the Archangels are actually powers within you, activated by invocation and intention, which assist you in creating your world, enhancing it and moving on to the next creation. These super powers allow you to create in multiple realms in this universe.

Again, the formula is:
The Archangel invokes the power of the law, working with the principle, to produce the attribute.
Haniel, pronounced HA-NEE-EL, invokes the power of the Law of Relinquishment, working with the principle of Purpose, producing Mastery.
Traditional Invocation: Haniel, Haniel, Haniel. Divine Relinquishment releases to me all my abundance and Mastery is mine.
Discussion:

Teacher Judith said, “Haniel’s name means abundance. When you are masters you live the abundant life. Is that not what you want? What other purpose?  … Mastery – that is what you are working toward, mastery  of yourself, of your lives, dominion over this gorgeous planet that you have been given to live on.

My favorite invocation for Haniel is: With Haniel I joyfully declare, “Affectionate detachment releases to me the abundance of my self-mastery.”

Discussion: This invocation format states the intention of the invocation prior to the invocation, and affirms an attitude of joy. Joy is a necessary component of the enthusiasm that is part of the fuel of creation. Here I’m declaring that I am already self-mastered and that affectionate detachment assists me in experiencing the fullness of abundance. I use “affectionate detachment” vs. non-attachment to emphasize the fact that you can release something yet still maintain a positive feeling toward it because, in fact, anything you are relinquishing has played a part in your spiritual development.

Suppose you went to Disneyland some time ago. It was fun at the time and now your good with it being a memory. You’re affectionately detached. When it’s time to move on, you can move on affectionately detached.

Another important role of relinquishment is the fact, that unless you let go of your limiting pre-conceptions, you will not be free to experience the unlimited.  Hence the Teachers advise us to examine our beliefs and their sources and to release the ones that limit us.

Other spiritual studies also emphasize the importance of relinquishment at the end of the creative process. Religious Science describes the  “Spiritual Mind Treatment” process as consisting of Recognition, Unification, Realization, Thanksgiving and Release. And Joseph of the Michael Reccia books emphasizes that we need to release the old to experience the new, and that not only is this fundamental to the creative process, the fact that humans tend to like to repeat things ties us down and keeps us from moving on to higher things.

Start experiencing your unlimited capacity.

Your Super Powers – Michael

Remember, the Archangels are actually powers within you, activated by invocation and intention, which assist you in creating your world, enhancing it and moving on to the next creation.

These super powers allow you to create in multiple realms in this universe.

Again, the formula is:

The Archangel invokes the power of the law, working with the principle, to produce the attribute.

Michael, pronounced MICK-KAY-ELL, invokes the power of the Law of Dominance, working with the principle of Appropriation, producing Feeling and Desire.

Traditional Invocation: Michael, Michael, Michael. Through Divine Dominance, I appropriate and gratefully accept the joy, the wisdom, and the support of the Universe as my life flows to the “full-fillment” of my destiny.

Discussion:

We appropriate. We take from the world around us what we need and what we want. What is the Law of Dominance? Like the Law of Gravity, it’s an observed phenomenon which, for the most part, is “ubiquitous”. People dominate people. People dominate animals. People create ways to get what they want. By focusing on and getting to know what you want in detail, you develop an intimacy with it. You start to feel its nuances and start to merge with it emotionally and consciously. Your desire comes with feelings which you get to know and can reproduce. This facilitates the appropriation because you have learned to generate the conditions necessary for the manifestation of that which you wish to appropriate.

The Teachers emphasize that the best use of dominance is self-dominance, self control, self-enhancement for the benefit of others.

My favorite invocation for Michael is: With Michael I joyfully declare, “I appropriate what I want from the Universe.”

Discussion: This invocation format states the intention of the invocation prior to the invocation, and affirms an attitude of joy. Joy is a necessary component of the enthusiasm that is part of the fuel of creation. Here I’m declaring my built-in creative ability to plan and do what’s necessary to produce beneficial things and situations from the resources available on earth. What do I want from the Universe? From the perspective an angel, I want to enhance All That Is.

So, cultivate the soil, plant the seeds you want to grow, fertilize, provide sunlight, water and weed and what do you get? What a coincidence. We reap what we sow.
