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.

What do you take? What do you leave?

Comedian George Carlin had a wonderful routine about “stuff” that directly addressed the issue of what to take and what to leave, i.e. if you go on a vacation, what do you take with you? Then, if while there you get invited to stay the night somewhere, what subset of your stuff do you take with you? His delivery is hilarious.

But let’s ask the same question in several other contexts?

Suppose you’re a handyman, it’s Saturday morning and you have 3 appointments scheduled. Based upon the appointments you may take a general purpose toolbox, and perhaps several other tools to fit the specific needs of the appointments. And then your wife gives you a “honey-do” list for the day and tells you to remember your lunch… and “can you bring something back for dinner?” If you wish to keep your wife and your clients happy, it would behoove you to be organized and have all your “to-do’s” written down in an organized fashion, and take with you all the tools and paperwork required.

So let’s say you get your truck loaded, you check your list, open the garage door and drive away to the day’s adventure. What did you take, and what did you leave? 1) You took you consciousness and your capabilities, you took the things you needed for the day, and all your experience and beliefs, and all your expectations as to what will happen, what time you will return, and your feelings and sensations. 2) You left the world you call “home”, i.e. house, wife, family, dog, and related categories, and all your accumulation of stuff.

You’ve all heard the question: “Would there be a sound if a tree fell in the forest and no one (and no instrument) was there to hear it?” So here’s another question. Is “home” still in existence when you leave it, taking your consciousness to another environ? Whether or not your home continues to exist in perceived “physicality”, you expect that it persists and that, for the most part, it will not have changed when you return. And dependent on the forces of the moment, you’ll get what you expect.

But let’s look at this from another angle. How are you adding to and enhancing your experience, and the experience of others, and what are your “takeaways”? What do you take with you when you leave any environ? Your experiences and your conclusions (which are experiences too), i.e. what you learn. The book of Deuteronomy has a great suggestion, something to the effect of: “I have set before you Life and Death. Therefore choose Life.” So take those experiences that come to you, learn from them, be joyful, and move on to the next experience.
