Moral Clarity Around Killing.
Seeking Wisdom around this issue.
Concerning killing, what is the Motive? asks the Teacher.
The Teacher who is Saturn – Ray 3.
Saturn clarifies.
Ray 3 – day of Divine Intelligence day.
Moral clarity day.

Today – November 18, 2023 – Sun/Mars & Moon Pluto today!
Illumination, action, the past & transformation today.
Aquarius moon day, Scorpio Sun day.
The new era.

Moral clarity around killing at all times.
And especially in times of war.
Moral clarity in terms of killing.
It has to do with MOTIVE.
clarifying in terms of killing
to understand this.
About the conflict.
About the killing happening on both sides.
The question around killing is the MOTIVE behind the killing.
And clarifying the motive for killing.
Is the motive for killing to defend oneself, one’s family or nation?
Or is the motive to destroy?
Defend or destroy? The two are quite different in terms of motive.
If it (the killing) is the latter (destruction as in Hamas’s killing) then the motive is ruled by evil.

In the Kali Yuga our minds are clouded.
We are ignorant, unable to think clearly.

We don’t often know how to choose right from wrong.
We don’t know the truth. Nor can we find it clearly.
Therefore we need clarifications in order to understand

and to think clearly.
Now we know…..love, Risa

Baking Challah for Peace & in Time of Difficulty.
Joining our Jewish sisters & brothers
who are baking Challah together – a ritual of unity in
times of difficulty –
Today is Friday, the usual day Challah is made in the Jewish community – preparing for Shabbat, tonight’s Shabbat meal at sundown, which begins the new day. Challah is always served at Friday’s Shabbat, covered with a clean linen towel until it’s time for the blessing & time to eat together.
Why baking Challah in times of difficulty.
Read more here:
https://www.myjewishlearning.com/the-nosher/the-power-of-baking-challah-together-in-hard-times/

Baking Challah for blessings & peace.
In the Torah’s Book of Number – the instructions say to reserve a portion of the Challah dough for God, focusing the mind & heart & make a blessing before discarding it (in the compost). This “law” is to be applied during difficulties, sorrows, tragedies & joy. We can say the word “Amen” & we can ask God for help & also offer God gratitude & also offer to God whatever is the difficulty, tragedy, the war, the pain, the sorrow, the joy.

World Peace Challah

Let us all do this together in the Ashram today. And in the days to come as a way of acknowledging peace & love between all peoples, all nations, all hearts & minds. Risa

“People of goodwill can come together to make things better.”
These are good words. The NGWS knows how this is precipitated. We teach this to the world.

Our Meditation
Standing together under the light of the Group Soul, facing the Christ with intention, dedication & Love, we recite these words… together…

Forgetting the things which lie behind,
We will strive towards our highest spiritual possibilities.
We dedicate ourselves anew
To the service of the Coming One
And will do all we can
To prepare men’s minds and hearts
For that event.
We have no other life intention.
Ohm Ohm Ohm.

May the power of the One Life
Pour through the group of all true servers.

May the love of the one soul
Characterize the lives
Of all who seek to aid the great ones

May we fulfill our part in the one work
Through self-forgetfulness,
Harmlessness, and right speech.
Ohm

Tomorrow – Baking Challah for Peace.
Looking forward to this posting.
love, Risa

Drop Down Ye Heavens.
(in times of war).

Day of Writing Something By Hand.
The effects of writing by hand & the Art of Calligraphy.
On this Mercury’s (4) day.

 

And so….as the war progresses (the agenda of the globalists & the false government we are living under – wars create money for the globalists).
As the Forces of Light battle with the Forces of Darkness in this
Kali Yuga time….
What does one do? How can we affect peace in our world?
Prayer is the answer.
Humanity in prayer.
For the wars on our earth. Calling upon the Lord.
Calling upon the Forces of Light.

Ye heavens above, rain down the Lord’s righteousness;
let the clouds shower it down.
Let the earth open wide,
let salvation spring up,
Drop down dew, ye heavens, from above, and let the clouds rain the just: let the earth be opened and bud forth a Savior.” –

And the Lord said/says –
“It is I who made the earth
and created mankind on it.
My own hands stretched out the heavens;
I marshaled their starry hosts.
13 I will raise up the people in my righteousness:
I will make all their ways straight.
They will rebuild my city and set my exiles free.”
Isaiah 45:8 – 13.

Today is Wednesday, November 15.
Wednesdays are Mercury’s day, Ray 4 day.

 

Prayer
To help ourselves out of confusion, fear, panic, untruths,
ignorance, despair, etc.

Let reality govern our every thought
& truth be the Master of our life.
(Treatise on White Magic, p. 239)

The Astrology today, November 15, 2023.
Scorpio (4) Sun & Mars (6) –
Sagittarius (4, 5, 6) moon till 3pm west coast time.
Then a v/c moon till midnight when the moon enters practical Capricorn (1, 3, 7).

The elements of fire & air.
They work well together as elements.
Mercury (4) speaks with love & kindness today (Venus-5).
Mercury (4) inconjuncts (150 degrees apart) Jupiter (2) this evening – (Sag/Taurus). Expansive (Jupiter) communication (Mercury). About good things, beneficent things, about love.
How the inconjunct comes together is via one of the Rays.
Which Ray? Perfect for today.

 

Writing/Calligraphy
Today is I LOVE TO WRITE DAY.
It is good to begin again to return to handwriting – to write with one’s hands and fingers.
Holding pencils, pens, etc.
The hand is connected to the functions of the brain & the head center.
Writing is an art form.
In the ancient times, one of the main disciplines in the schools was the Art of Calligraphy.

Handwriting facilitates successful reading ability in young children. Handwriting builds different neurons & areas of the brain. Using a computer for writing does not.

About Calligraphy (for all ages)
Calligraphy stimulates nerve connections/neuronal activity, acquire information quickly, increases motor memory, helping us to develop a broader vocabulary and write texts that are more comprehensive. Our haptic perception (the psychological ability to perceive things, to grasp something – a concept, an essence, etc.) becomes more acute, increasing the tactile experiences we lose when typing on mobile and electronic devices.
Calligraphy helps us focus and at the same time to relax.
Calligraphy makes one feel happy.
It is a tool that makes us feel well.
Calligraphy is an Art form everyone can access.
Writing & caligraphy have not disappeared in the mists of time.

Friday – making Challah for Peace.
love, Risa

Diwali – Festival of Lights.
Lighting our little lamps to dispel the darkness.
Light Over Darkness, Good Over Evil.
In the autumn time, as the light darkens each day (in the northern hemisphere), to maintain hope in the hearts of humanity, festivals of light are held.

Today (November 12, 2023, Sunday) is Diwali – the five day Hindu festival of light.
It is the festival marking the Good over evil, the Light over the darkness. As in….
“In the end, the Forces of Light DO control the Forces of evil.”

A prayer offered during Diwali.
On this auspicious moment of Diwali, I wish you and your family a “Happy Diwali”.
We pray that the God Ganesha and the Goddess Lakshmi bless everyone with good health, wealth and success on Diwali festival.
May Diwali light up new hopes, wishes & dreams, everything bright & beautiful and fill everyone’s days with surprise.
Happy Diwali (Lighting our Path), to everyone.

Diwali is traditionally celebrated by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains and is one of the most significant festivals in the east Indian culture.

The word Diwali means rows of lighted lamps and it is known as the Festival of Lights because houses and shops are decorated with candles and colourful lights. This shows the victory of light over darkness and good over evil.

For many Indians, Diwali honors Lakshmi, goddess of wealth and people will begin the new business year at Diwali and some will say prayers to the goddess for a prosperous year ahead.

Large firework displays are held which celebrate one of the Diwali legends, Rama and his wife Sita.
The fireworks signify Rama’s (in the story of the Mahabarata in the Bhagavad Gita) return to his kingdom after being exiled for 14 years and defeating king Ravana, when the local people set off their own version of fireworks.

Oil Lamps
Those celebrating Diwali also light traditional earthenware oil lamps called diyas which are said to help Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, find her way into people’s homes. They’ll leave their windows and doors of their houses open so that she can enter.

Art & Patterns of Beauty
People will also create rangoli artwork which are patterns created using coloured rice or powder, with the most popular pattern being the lotus flower as Lakshmi was often pictured either sitting on one or holding a lotus.

Sweets
During Diwali, families and friends share sweets, dried fruit and gifts, and many give food and goods to those who are less fortunate and in need. It is also a time when people spring-clean and redecorate their homes and wear new clothes.

Diwali or Deepavali is one of the most prominent and famous Hindu festivals of India, celebrated with great fervor. In Sanskrit, word ‘Deepavali’ means “rows of lights” so this festival is also known as “Festival of Lights”. Diwali festival starts with Dhanteras, followed by small Diwali and then main Diwali. People of all religion enjoy this festival by making vibrant rangolis, lighting lamps ‘diyas’, distributing sweets, exchanging gifts between friends and relatives and burning crackers. This festival of lights transcends religion and is celebrated by Indians worldwide.

Each year people of all communities celebrate this festival to welcome a new ray of hope into their lives through this festival, when all the negative forces are believed to be removed from both, one’s home and life. Before Diwali, people clean their home and paint it with attractive colors. Every nook and corner in the home is lighted with clay diyas (little lights) or electric lamps to expel darkness and ensure prosperity can see its way home. Children and all the ages of people burnt firecrackers to enjoy the day.
Diwali is celebrated continuously for five days.
Dhanteras (begins the festival) – on this day people buy new cloths, pots or jewelry for their family.
Bhai dooj day – (exchanging gifts of love & the love between siblings, brothers & sisters).

For Diwali festival, people do shopping of cloths and gold ornaments, which they wear before goddess Laxmi pujan. Flowers, sweets, food, amongst others are some of the ways in which people try to start a fresh and welcome a new year of bliss.

On the night of Deepavali, Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi puja has been performed everywhere in India to invoke their blessings for one’s well-being and growth. People receive the blessing of Lord Ganesh and Goddess Laxmi in the form of health, wealth, prosperity and happiness.

Apart from this, Deepawali also has a deeper significance in Jainism as on this special day, Lord Mahavira, the last of the Jain Tirthankar of this era, entered Nirvana at Pavapuri, and therefore they celebrate it referring to it as Deva Devali. In Newar Buddhism as well, this festival has relevance as Ashok Vijayadashami as Emperor Ashoka converted to Buddhism on this very occasion.

Diwali is the festival of lights, of good over evil. On Diwali festival, people wish each other by saying “Happy Diwali”.
love to everyone, Risa
