Elvis - A Lighted Candle

[Wanda June Hill]

I hope that everyone will do this-and that we include Maia in our prayers and meditation for her health to be strong and roboust in these coming weeks. She needs the power and faith we can send to her through prayer and meditation. Ask in our Father's name, Lord of all.
Elvis said to always use water to put out the flame-wet fingers, pinch it out. blowing it out "disrupts the vibrations you have just developed with meditation." He also said never get up suddenly, as when you meditate you start with the feet, relaxing, feeling them mentally and all the way up, stopping at the chockras of the body and to the top of your head. Don't forget your hands, the palms are centers (I can't remember what he called them) and when we close the meditation time, we reverse the process and say thank you and amen before getting up. Breath deeply first he said, slowly exhale and inhale and the rise up and try to keep that peace within you all day as long as possible. Wjh

Thanks for sharing Elvis' technique with us, Wanda!

I ask also that we send Wanda some healing light during our meditations as well. She has health problems she doesn't talk about...like vomiting green bile (esp alot lately due to book stress) due to removal a gallbladder years ago.

Needless to say, Wanda's a tougher cookie than I am. If I vomited green bile just ONCE I would be ordering my URN for cremation!

Elvis: Prayer for obtaining God's help and healing.

Fold hands, fingers touching held at heart level. bow head. say: "Lord, my God, thy will be done. Please help with your almighty power, I ask for my friend ------------------,who needs you. Grant your love, heal with your firey breathe of life and give your blessings today. God, I ask in humble gratitude and give thanks to my Father in Heaven. Thy will be done. Amen."

Thanks for posting Elvis' prayer Wanda . . .
Does anyone know of any good CD's and/or DVD's to help get one into the relaxation & meditation mode. I'm such a fidgety person, always tapping my foot & leg when sitting (remind you of someone?). And have a hard time concentrating. Environmental or new age music helps, but I was thinking of something with spoken words to follow along.

LAURIE IM SO GLAD YOU ASKED THAT QUESTION, I WAS WONDERING THE SAME THING ABOUT HAVING MUSIC PLAYING? I HAD THOUGHT ABOUT HAVING SOME OF ELVIS'S GOSPEL PLAYING, BUT IM OPEN TO ANY SUGGESTIONS. BARB!!

Many thanks to Wanda for having given us the necessary information we need for the meditations! Will be sending Maia and Wanda both love and prayers for their healing.

As far as music goes, whatever anyone wants to use is fine, be it Elvis gospel or new age music: Laurie, you may find the link below useful for music/DVD's re new age:

www.newworldmusic.com

Have tried some of theirs out in the past and has been very relaxing, mindful of meditation so hope you will be able to find something there of help to you.

With love and light, Sue

[Blue Moon]

Thanks, Sue. I had in mind something of a guided meditation, taking me thru steps to relax & be able to meditate. Your link will probably have something like that.

Hi Laurie

If not, though, you might like to try:

http://www.tahya.com/meditations.html

specialising in both CDs and DVD's relating to guided meditations.

[Blue Moon]

Thank you, Sue, I will check that site out. But also, I had completely forgotten that I had a meditation CD. It's not guided but is very relaxing & almost hypnotic. It uses repetitive healing tones & and a repetitive chant. It really gives me deep relaxation. The name of the CD is "Holy Harmony" and the below link also gives you a chance to listen to a sample:

Hi Carola!

Love this song, absolutely beautiful and thanks SO VERY MUCH for sharing this with us all at ELC! Really just so inspirational and helpful towards meditation on our Father and the Lord Jesus!

With love,

Sue/White Swan

[Barbara Lea]

YES I DO LOVE AND REMEMBER THAT SONG! AND THE LOOK ON ELVIS' FACE SINGING IT! THANKS CAROLA! FAIRYTALE!

[Blue Moon]

Carola, thanks for providing the link. It really is a beautiful song. Wish it was on some of Elvis' gospel albums but can't recall any.

My meditation experience from last week:

I was walking and meditating with the Lord along a tree lined path, after sundown, so it was quiet & calming. Suddenly, I was shown a rainbow in my mind's eye.
At the end of the rainbow was a pot of gold and right next to it was a bucket of water. I saw myself, in the spirit, go over & pick up the water and walk away. At that same moment, what was imparted to me was that water is or will become more valuable than gold.

[Rainbow Light]

Interested in this, Laurie. You mean in the terms of how many people don't value water and the earth's resources? I feel that many of the Earth and God's creation is abused and taken for granted, do you think this may be an interpretation?

Please feel free to correct me or add comments etc, but just wondering is all!

Thanks!

Sue
