Aligning with Love from SDI: a spiritual practice

ALIGNING WITH LOVE This month Passover, Good Friday and Easter all took place as the world slipped further into a profound health and economic crisis. Around the world, we understandably struggle to recognize the relationship of loss and renewal in this pandemic. This simple practice is about grounding ourselves - and refreshing ourselves - in that which transcends all limitations, the creative force of the universe, love. PRACTICE 1) Find a safe and warm place. Welcome stillness. Greet all thoughts as old friends. But tell them - Maybe another day. Tell them today you need to make space for another old friend right now..... When you feel ready, welcome God, or however you name the ground of all being. 2) Read this prayer. Then close your eyes, and say it in your own words. Change anything you like. Just honour what arises deep within you as you read it: PRAYER "I will always keep trying. I will never give up. I will be present with you, God, and with all beings. In every moment. This is my intention. I will be grateful for all you give, God. I will be grateful for all I experience. I will be grateful in every moment. I will make of my heart an open window to shine your love and light. I will make of my life an open window to share your love and light. I will make of my soul an open window to be your love and light. This is enough. This is abundance. To shine, share and be your love and light. To shine, share and be the love and light inherent in all beings. I will acknowledge - and let go - all negativity I create and carry. I will align with love. I will align with love. I will align with love. And like the prodigal son, I will feel the wonder and joy of coming home to you, God, and being accepted as I am. No matter how far I stray, no matter how often I stray, I will return home. Your infinite welcome calls me. And I will infinitely respond. I will choose love. I do choose love. I am love. And love never ends." Peace to you all, brothers and sisters. Blessings to you in all you do.
