Shambhala

A Journey of Passion

I walked softly, into the beautiful space of love, light and energy. It was so familiar, so energizing and so filled with universal passion. "What is this spot"?, I wondered, as I stepped intimately into my flowing white gown that began to blow enticingly in the wind. It is a "holy" place. Not a religious place, but holy. It is all things and nothing all at once. It is a place of being and a place of becoming. I knew that I would and could become all that I desired. I watched closely as the waves of the ocean tide soothed my soul as the sunset graciously in the west. "I am warm, protected and alive," I thought. I dug my feet deeply into the sand and felt the warm inviting energy of mother earth in all her glory. She spoke to me in a language that I now know I remember. It is her "love" story and the breath of life came into my being through the sky. I had it all at this moment, at this place, in the realm of peace and new understanding. Here, I thought, I can fly. I can allow a fire to ignite what has been waiting for me for many many eons. This is a moment of destiny. This is the beginning of Shambhala...

What can I say about a place so intimate, so internal and so alive with wisdom and universal truth? I know the "masters" have been patiently waiting. They have spoken into my heart and yet I did not hear. The confusion of just plain life itself is enough to block out the voices that so desperately desire for us to hear. I blocked, and walked without purpose, and feeling a little less of a human and even more less of a spirit being.

I knew I was missing something so internally intimate and spiritually extraordinary but I had not one single clue as to how to get it all.

Introduction to Shambhala Energy

Then the time arrived. My introduction to the energy flow of the grandest kind. This is a healing flow and one that many masters are waiting to give, just for the asking. "How do I ignite a fire?" I asked the universe, addressing the candle that I knew had been flickering within for so very long. I felt the surge that tapped my shoulder and I knew that the fire was to be evident and eminent as I stepped just a little closer to the reality that was about to begin.

I recall my first Shambhala attunement. In fact, I recall them all. How could I possibly forget, ever, the integrating of "what" I am with "who" I am? I sat quietly with my master teacher as I viewed her on web cam in Spiritual Community and the word expecting did not seem to even come close to the feelings I was having. The flow of life began to enter in as the energy took up its residence with my spirit. My master teacher downloaded the sacred symbols into my being with passion and command.

A Vision of Dr. Usui, Founder of Reiki

I could see my sacred place all of a sudden, beautiful colors all wrapped up into an orange hue that resembled the sunset of many of my travels through the universe. In a panoramic view, I could see this place. It was all around me. It BECAME me. Ahhhh, I had to be in total awe and almost disbelief! "This is so wild" I thought. "What a triple awesome experience!" When the attunement was over, I felt the positive energy integration through my soul. I felt so surreal and so serene. I went off about my business of the day and in the grocery store, much to my surprise, was standing Dr Usui, the wonderful master that I was introduced to during my Reiki attunements! Dr Usui stood quietly in the middle of the grocery aisle and smiled at me. I heard in my being, "You have done well my daughter, and we are all so very proud of you!" Then, he faded away, but not far because I know I can call upon him any time I desire to.

With successive attunements that brought me through four, I began to see more and more of the internal wisdom that had been hiding dormant within me for so very long. The panoramic view of my special place made its way into my third eye to view on several occasions after my first attunement. I envisioned the beauty of two beautiful rivers of water flowing into my head and all through my body and blessed by a being of light who held out his hands offering up the gift of all that there is within the universe. This is to be "mine"; the hands were now open wide. I could see the violet hues all around my master teacher on web cam. I knew she was embraced by the "violet flame". "This is a flame of healing and spiritual growth for me", the voices of the masters so instructively stated. I knew that nothing was ever going to be the same. The journey of a lifetime has now begun and continues to this day without ceasing. It is a journey of truth, trust and passion and grows with each passing moment.
