A Compassion Meditation – Rebooting Compassion Podcast

Pema Chodrun pointed out the paradoxical truth that “Being able to tolerate a broken heart is the medicine for the pain of existence.” Yet, with all the images that will be flooding our tv and internet screens, it is wise to strike a balance. We will almost certainly be treated to 24 hours of a long string of secondary disasters ranging from starvation and water-borne epidemics to violence and even deeper poverty. So it is wise to make sure you don’t overdo it.

I have offered some suggestions in the Rebooting Compassion audio clip.  The key is to stay in touch with your heart, and your potential for the acceptance of the truth . . . as the Buddha pointed out, the cause of all suffering is wanting things to be different than they are, right now! This acceptance provides the inner peace that can allow us to see deeper, through the pain to the potential.

One sign that you may have the right balance when, in spite of the pain you feel by empathizing, there will arise a deep sense of connection to these people, an awareness of what you can do to help, and a greater understanding of what needs to be done in the world to prevent even more of these “Katrina-like” disasters.

“The evil in this world is not done only by those who commit it, but by those who stand back and watch it happening.”
–Albert Einstein

Escape-From-DepThis program may be helpful, even crucial, during the most stressful time of the year.

—>Escape from Depression Part1<—

—>Escape From Depression Part2<—

Description of Escape From Depression:

Escape From Depression weaves vital information based on clinical experience and the latest neuropsychiatric research with powerful self-healing tools like cognitive-behavioral self-therapy, meditation, deep relaxation, self-imagery, self-hypnosis, autogenic training, and prayer.

This program consists of 2 discs; CD 1 offers a new perspective on the mechanism of depression, delivered in the form of a Heart to Heart talk. In it, Dr. Miller explains depression as the state of being cut off from your spirit or heart, what has meaning for you. It is a kind of learned helplessness, based on a belief in loss and a failure to grieve properly. But because it is learned, depression can be unlearned. You can change your thinking by coming into the present.

One of the fathers of Holistic Healing, Dr. Miller introduced the world to the power of creative visualization, and the use of meditation cassettes and CD’s. The future is not somewhere we’re going, it’s a place we’re creating, in each moment, with each thought, with each image. Here’s how to intentionally choose to transform the world the way you want.

Track 1 Introduction :58

Are you ready to begin to awaken a powerful inner part of yourself, and engage it in helping to create the kind of world you want to live in? If so, continue listening to Track 2 after this brief introduction. If not, skip forward to Track 4.

Track 2 Your Deeper Mission

In a democracy, the way to keep people enslaved is to keep them ignorant of their inner power. On this track you will first learn to quiet mind chatter and distractions and gain access to the vast resources within – your love, your faith, your skills and talents. At your special inner place you will contact your inner wisdom and spiritual guidance. Listen to this side by itself to get in touch once again with the truth of who you are, or continue on with Track 3. Use daily, or as often as you like.

Track 3 Global peace Meditation  20:38

Opens with a Native American Prayer for “All My Relations,” then recalls your inner truth – your purpose and values, your resources and spirituality. Next you will apply the Master Skill, creative visualization, to create the world your heart longs to see, and empower it with your love, compassion, and enthusiasm. Add your voice to the growing chorus of hearts who are creating our shared future. Listen alone, or with others, for more power, daily or as frequently as desired.

Track 4 Creating World peace- a heart to heart talk 34:03

How can we do it? Here is Dr. Miller’s incredible answer! Discover how denial and “victim consciousness” have combined to produce a near fatal global disease. Learn the secret to global healing as passed down through  the ages, and how it has been hidden by rulers to keep themselves in power.  Gandhi said it more succinctly—“Think globally, act locally.” Your most powerful ally is the part of your adversary that knows what is right, what is good, what is Love. Here is the rationale for the wise use of imagination, and how it can create global change.
