54 Day Contemplation – Passionate Passageways – Thread 7
Dear Community,
Blessings. May this exercise in Contemplation bring you into deep and meaningful places and spaces of clarity. May your heart and hara be opened, and may you ultimately join hands in the journey that is Life as Art.
Enclosed you will find a 54-day exercise. You will be examining the 7th Thread Quality, "Passion Passageway" which is found in the 12 Thread Prayer Book. It is the quality of the 7th thread which examines the Eternal Aspects: Vehicle, Home, Partnership, Family, Friends, Work and Ego/Soul Unity.
As in your previous contemplation you will need to address a specific Eternal Aspect each day, this order is determined by the order found in the small prayer book under your thread number. If you need help, please contact Teresa.
Please continue posting as is comfortable for you, writing no more than 5 lines no less than 3.
No less than 3 times per week and 5 times per week is the best. A Daily Contemplative practice develops a really healthy connection for your Ego and Soul to develop a sound Trust relationship. This trust relationship provides for clarity in understanding dreams and visions. You choose today the path that is most doable for you and stick to it. This may seem difficult to do every day; however, it is the path we have all taken for many years now and seems to work in learning the language of the soul which is not as easy as it appears. ©) It also develops an easy pathway for the lower bodies' expression of sacred art (necessary for clear pathways of visioning).
You will want to use your own quality and symbol as the outer shell of the Passion Passageway form as a symbol of embracing and allowing the embodiment of Passion Passageway into your heart and hara. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Hara, it is considered to be the Soul Heart and is located four finger breadths below the belly button Oust above the pelvic bone).
I send you blessing and deep caring love, Faithfully Knowing that each of us is exactly in the center of where we are supposed to be. May grace flow through each of us as strength fortifies our blessed journey.
Inlove,
JiMi Tao

She speaks in images, and helps me to Imagine Passionate Passageways of Equanimity,
teaching me through the nature of all relation, the beautiful ways of Equanimity.

It is early Spring here upon the river.

The banks are brown and golden blankets. remnants of grass and leaf of another time.

Barren red willow branches and some aspen trunk thrive, reminders of an inward Hope
of new life to come.

Sunlight touches the buds, giving encouragement through freezing breezes. as winter
breath stills the self in inner solitude.
