Category Meditation Nights

Channeling as a medium I can describe it as quieting your thoughts, sitting still and allowing your thoughts to quiet down. There is a moment where I use the techniques here to reach an altered state and allow my guides to enter my body, not possess and allow them to speak through me using my voice and body. Although the voice for Chamuel or Sacreah may differ it’s still my body and I’m always in control. And remember get out of your head, much as I say to students in the developmental curses. I refer to channelling as “a one-way telephone call to the spirit world”. Channelling isn’t a new thing and has been part of human history all over the globe. Such people just to mention are Edgar Casey, JZ Knight, Esther and Jerry Hicks, Leslie Fliny, and Doreen Virtue all of who have channelled and dedicated most of their lives. 

When undertaking mediumship work. Much practice is a good habit to get into. This is a time set aside to offer opportunities and allow my guides to have a physical conversation. I know they like the interaction of the weekly meditation circles we offered over the years to ask questions of clarification, and direction in their lives and even speak with someone who has crossed if the opportunity arises. ( This took many years of practice for me) Sometimes when I come out from channelling, it can make me feel a bit dizzy and out of sorts. Other times, when I try to get my bearings, I open my eyes to see everyone staring at me. Over the years, this is something that I have become accustomed to.

What it is not, is a possession as you may have seen on TV or in movies. This is a direct link with the practice and help of my guides in preparation. And not just sitting on an Ouigi board and asking for anyone or inviting anyone to enter my domain. Not such a great idea. I never indulge in any illicit drug use or alcohol either, especially since I don’t do either. I rather have my cognizance intact.

People, whether they realize it or not, often have information channelled directly through them from spirit. For example, when an answer to an idea suddenly comes to you out of the blue and helps you solve something. Spirit has and will often assist when they can, this is not to be confused with interrupting or interfering, but to help. Other examples are seen in an example of Edgar Casey – and a book written for him called “There is a River”.  Mozart, Bach, and even one of my favourite groups, Ramstein, The Doors and in other ways such as paintings seen by Michelangelo and even in your average everyday person. Your guides and spirit helpers are always willing and present to assist. These are some examples of situations in which channelling can be found. These fluctuations of spiritual assistance are just to help you that little bit as you learn. The choice is yours and always will be. So the experience and answers you seek sometimes may not be what you are looking for and may be a bit more blunt than you realize. But know this, those answers or bits of conversation are always given to you with the utmost intention of love. And to quote one of my teachers Mavis Pattilia, spirit never wastes a thought.

Can anyone be a Channeller or learn to channel as a medium? Why not, you may take a while to develop these skills, and find a suitable, experienced and trained teacher. Just remember, this does take dedication and practice.  While you may receive the basics, many people are different from each other and also is their spiritual growth. Unfortunately, there are some who, take a channelling course and are in a hurry to perform and “wow the crowd” that they are willing to skip all the spiritual lessons in an attempt to boost their egotism. 

That is why I will tell people who are interested in learning to Channel, to find a good teacher, not to rush your search and practice, practice, practice. Being famous isn’t a bad thing but being true to your intention is always a good place to learn and grow. Furthermore, always remember that you are serving spirit first and foremost! In time, things will unfold with opportunities placed in front of you guided by the spirit world, there is no such thing as coincidence. You will know when it is time and when you are ready.

I do offer spiritual development classes on this subject. As well as, psychic and mediumship development.  Classes can be found posted on my FB sites for open mediumship or spiritual medium gordon ellison. I also will send out via email when such courses are being offered and is usually a weekend course from Friday, Sat and Sunday. The cost per person is $300 with a $50 deposit required to hold your place and all payment is non-refundable. This is usually an 8 week course but was redesigned for a shorter period for easy study.

Last weeks meditation in March 2014 was about learning to connect with a new guide. That guide was also learning to connect and work with each of you. It was important that when doing the exercise, to remain with your eyes closed. While learning to relax and then through the meditation you have learned to connect via the open doorway directly behind you. The light which was bright at first, slowly dissipated as the connection became stronger. Once the connection and vibration was completed , you had allowed the information or rule of first thought to be applied. While sitting across from your partner , and leaning in, you allowed the information to begin and be told. This first voice as I will call it, transmitted the information through you from thought. The exercise was an important introduction allowing both you and that guide to practice the art of communication and hold of the shared space of vibration. One your end, the reason I was told for keeping your eyes closed was because they didn’t want you to allow your ego get in the way and interrupt the flow of information and break the connection. As some of you experienced, thoughts seemed to vanish and leaving you to open your eyes.

While this did happen to some, two things had happened. One, during the quiet moment, your guide was going back to ask for assistance. Remember that their also learning to communicate with you. Essentially, you lost the connection and any other information, was lost. Secondly, with your eyes opened, the opportunity for the ego was allowed to see how you did by the expression of the other person and thusly, allowed you to miss the intention of the whole experience and exercise. For everyone there there was no right or wrong. You all did very well, just remember next time you practice, keep your eyes closed and don’t allow your ego a chance, to ruin your experience in the future until your ready to part with it.

My apologies for not blogging but we missed a couple meditation nights due to our daughter having nose surgery.

I am asked sometimes after the meditation, how do I come up with the different meditations I do or have done? I remember at one particular time, I wrote down what it was I wanted to say during a meditation night. Let’s just say I haven’t since that one time did that again. Not that it ended badly, Samuel asked what I was trying to achieve and then said I should “just go with it”. I have found over the many years of doing my meditations that the best way to remember them is to just go with it. You see every night of our gathering is geared for some reason a purpose which I don’t understand until the end of the night or, partially halfway through. I have learned to let go and let God, as the angels say and allow the meditations to be as natural as they can be. And giving myself wholeheartedly to the people attending while acting as an open conduit for the Angels. I have also been privy to meditations done by other people and one of the ones I liked most was when I first went to the Omega Institute in NY to see “James Van Praagh” and “Tony Stockwell”. It was a meditation where James was leading the meditation and it involved a particular room. I liked the idea so much that he permitted me to also use it and so I have incorporated it for the second time on this night. You see the items in the room are all placed there by you, really even before the meditation even started, it has always been this way and was done before you came into this physical world. Every item has a meaning and purpose only you understand. There is meaning with all that is in here. My aim this night was not just to lead you into a serenity of soft words and music. I aimed to allow you to wake up your subconscious mind and explore the items and the gift that was given to you. That too, had a personal meaning.

Often people will ask questions which I often give right back and allow them to seek what it feels not so much what it means because I think that we can become lost in its translation by trying too much. By feeling you have a sense of awareness and feel the energy in response to how it makes you feel. Once you have that, as they say, the rest is cake. The room also was talked about and focused on brief moments of the window on the far wall. Or as I termed it, the room with a view. We so much want to see or experience something during the meditation, often that in itself will halt our experience and that is why I said let go and let God. Meaning letting go of anything we are trying to do or want in the existence of this meditation, and allow God’s energy to consume us inside the mass energy of the Universe and allowing the experience to be as natural for us as possible. Not all the time you will have an experience in your meditation, and often you may get frustrated and maybe even want to quit. But I will say if these feelings do come up in any of those times you’re meditating, take a deep breath, re-adjust your body and say in your mind as you exhale; let go, and let God and enjoy the room with a view.

I was supposed to put into this post for this night but, I completely forgot about it. A habit that my guide Samuel says, is in our nature of being human. I wanted to talk about the meditation I had about meeting another guide during a meditation at the first experience at the Omega Centre. I can honestly say that this was the top where both Tony and James was interactive on a more personal level that the last time I was there. Anyway, I was meditating and during this particular experience I was in the woods and was watching this guy walk through like he had a particular place to be. I also noticed that I was above him but not too far that I couldn’t see him. I thought it was very interesting as to where he was heading and I couldn’t keep from watching where he was heading to. I noticed he wore a tan outdoors long sleeved shirt rolled to his elbows and wearing shorts that were a bit darker with matching hiking boots. He also had slung over a shoulder a backpack and was walking with a hiking stick you would see for sale at an outfitters store. His hair was jet black and looked like he was in good shape, not too muscular but, enough to know he wasn’t small in his size. As he followed the path in front of him once in a while he would seem to catch himself whistling. I then noticed he came to what would be a small river in the woods but it seemed worn fro the previous rainfall that left behind bedrock of rounded stones with various size colour and shapes. He bent down for a moment and kicked up a fist sized stone and examined it briefly then put it back where he found it, stood up and turned left walking the path of the partially dried up river bed. The experience for me was so real, I remember even being able to smell the deep woods, the earth and feel the warmth from the trees covers of a fresh passed rain only a few hours old. My thoughts immediately went back to this individual who, was now making his way into an open field. As I looked up ahead, I noticed what seemed as I can describe as, a wall of fog stretching from the grass all the way to the sky. Then as quick as I noticed I was standing in the field on the other side of that wall as that individual walked through as a familiar everyday event and taking no notice of the fog. In the next moment I saw kids pop their heads from playing with each other a game of hiding seek all shouting within moments of each others voice and running towards this man, shouting his name; Joshua, look… Joshua is here. As soon as he acknowledged them with a slight one hand/arm hug he then looked up at me and from where I was standing; introduced himself to me and said, hello Gordon, I am Joshua, son of Gaya.

I learned that he was well… a “time traveler”. And often visiting other places then, returning home to heaven and would share his experiences. This introduction also came in the next moment as I watched myself sit in the room we all were in with everyone meditating and as I watched myself sitting motionless. Joshua then stood in front of me and said this is called the fitting and then sat down exactly where I was in me.

I soon learned that there will be work done with “Joshua, son of Gaya” as; I am told how to introduce him to others. He will be also working with my Angels regarding Channelling and other related Psychic work for myself.

I have come to know of many guides during my meditations and really look forward to working with him as well.

I can say that I am glad to have been introduced this way.

Well, here we are again, a nice quiet night there was a whole of five people that showed and you may think to yourself, wow where did everyone go?  Well, its like I explained that there are two parts to a nucleus, and also in our meditation circle.

There is the core group of people who come on a regular basis, and there is a group outside of the circle who come and go.  They sometimes come out on a regular basis, or they are off and on for a while. We have come to notice that over the years of meditation that when someone from the core circle stops attending, there is always someone new to replace them.  But I look at it this way, sometimes having a more intimate circle is nice because you are not only closer to the nights topic, but it also allows everyone to have an ear or say, it’s just… nice, ya know?  I love when more people come out and join us also, but I thought to share part of the conversation that took place for tonight.

I did record the meditation, and it stopped at 35 sec into the recording, I will say that I have been experiencing a lot of weird things at home lately. I will have to double check, in all cases my dad Cliff also recorded it, maybe I can persuade him to send me a copy in the email? Many of you are probably wondering why I picked such a title and it actually went with the meditation. In short, the bowl represented the soup made by a lady in a cabin where we went in the meditation. She not only fed us, but prepared this wonderful meal for us to eat with warm home made bread. This comfort food was represented by the soup of your choice. Along with the aroma that filled the wooden cabin and immediate vicinity, was the crackling fire that provided warmth chasing way the night chill. All went well as we shared the meal with our visiting spirit guide.

The soup in our bowl represented our life’s experiences. When our bowl is full, we must first eat it’s contents before enjoying second helpings. Much is said regarding an interview where Bruce Lee has a similar example with a cup of tea. I wont explain it as it can be found on U-tube (see the link to the right). When we empty our bowls it allows for us to experience more in our lives. Also soup in general is a warm hug on our internal organs, something we don’t pay much attention to unless its too late. So do yourself a favour at least once a month give your insides a hug, empty your bowl to experience more in life as well as other areas. Eat your soup, you’ll be glad you did.

Question for the night:

1) What did your medallion look like that the woods gave to you?

2) What kind of soup did you eat and how did it make you feel?

Last night meditation was really nice.

I was glad to have the opportunity to change up in the type of music we listen to.  I am often asked what is the nights meditation going to be about, and I used to say “it depends on what comes up”. It usually consisted of what Samuel and Sacreah do at that moment.  I used to plan it out when first starting our meditation nights, even canvasing the St. Catharine’s local Chapters for people interest in learning or interested to meditate.  It was weird at first, but like anything, once you’ve done it a few times you kind of get a feel for it.  Wow,  that was about 8-9 years ago.

We first started on Friday nights, and then came Pow Wow season, so friday’s were out and we moved the meditation to Thursday’s.  Usually I would be teaching Karate classes on Thursday and wednesday nights.  I do miss it a lot but as Samuel always says, life gets in the way.

So last night was a bit different in the fact that the flow of the music was changed. It was not so slow and drawn as I normally opt to use. I do like most music, but I had been waiting since I came back from the Omega Centre to introduce the musician I fell in love with. Along with the couple of tracks that had a big influence in a meditation i experienced there, we headed down another road together. If you were one of the ones privy that night when I explained it then you will know what I am talking about. For the rest sorry, you could either listen to the meditations you missed where I may have spoken about it?

The singer’s name is  SNATAM KAUR and her CD called “THE BODY OF”.  Music as Samuel explained, does more than just moves us or influences us in some sort of way.  Furthermore, it is the type of music that we can listen to while in that mode of meditation helping the experience to be very motivating and moving.  When we think of last nights meditation how did it experience for you. Did you have a difficult time trying to hear my voice?  I would like to remind you that the idea of meditation is not always to be lead from beginning to end and this is where the meditation from here on will be changed in a way to help you achieve just that.  Now don’t worry, the temple, healing and visitation meditation’s will still be used once in a while, but for now, this is about you.

Your new journey and the experience is waiting.

I am glad you enjoyed the meditation. It was also nice to see the energy shift in such a way that many of you let go for the first time and finally experienced a meditation just for you.   Here are the questions and if you wouldn’t mind, share your experience with other’s with a little blurb or, however much you like.

1.  When you looked outside the window what did you see?

2. What was you gift and what significance did it have for you?

The Road to Discovery

Tonights meditation was about making choices. Not just in the meditation, but in life. I know we all do that already to some degree, but it is a reminder that at anytime you can choose the road you wish to be on.  During the meditation you were asked to make a choice. By selecting a path, it encouraged you to explore and help to build trust within your own thoughts.  The Road you chose had a purpose and meaning. Only you can understand this road as it opens up the opportunity to self-discovery. Was there anything that was shown to you or told to you? Did you get anything at all by trusting enough in yourself? I have always provided the tools that lead you into a meditation. This may be a good time to remind you that you have always had the tools to meditate are with you, wherever you are.

The road to discovery in any meditation or even in life for that matter is always about choice.It is important to remember that it should be your choice, and not your will or aim to please another person in its attempt.

There are always many roads in life that we either choose to follow or to lead.  Can you be this leader in your life? if not, why?  Maybe its time to step back and give the Universe a chance to do its job for you. Maybe it’s time to lead by example. By thanking the Universe for the choices provided, you will be presented with more opportunity.  The road you choose is and always will be your choice. We were given the gift of choice, with this choice comes responsibility.  You are the driver, and your destination is, and has always been in your hands.  If you don’t like how your life is going, then change it.  I hope you received whatever it was you needed in the meditation. Your  journey is a lot like the surface of a road with many types of surfaces. But once you peel back that layer it is what is underneath that is important. Your meditation is a self journey on a road with many avenues, and if your still for a little bit, close your eyes and breath the answer will be provided for you if you pay attention.

When leaving comments on this meditation, please answer the following questions.

When you were asked to select a path, were you able to continue the meditation?
Did the path lead to an expected destination?

Well here I am,  and there you were.

It was a great night as always, I always like the diversities of conversation and the meditation, growling bellies and a snore from you know who once in a while…lol

My goal for tonight was to lead you towards the state of relaxation and have you choose between the two roads to take for your personal journey. As in life many roads are traveled on a daily basis. The analogy of this was for you to relate that the choices that you make are always yours as they always have been. Often many think that they have to follow me to the letter with each word and then their body puts them in sleep mode. Some, on waking, they think that they have somehow offended me, or there don’t remember anything, of they simply did something wrong. Remember this when you are here, you are here to relax and forget about the world outside.

The journey you take once led into relaxation is yours just like the choice between the two roads you stood in front of. Which one did you take? and where did it lead you?. Did you find the answer you were searching for or maybe it was the solitude of just quietly walking?

Sharing your experiences heightens the awareness of you experience as well as the energy. Its like dipping your hand in the lake and then touching someone. The energy absorbs from the lake (universe) and then is absorbed by your body and the essence of who you are. Resonating with this collective energy is what its all about. When you wake tomorrow, what road will you take on your journey into your day? besides the physical one that takes you into work. Remember, that all roads aren’t always made of mud and stone. If you are still at times, you will see that the road on your life’s journey is just as important to pay attention to. Just don’t forget to signal and, watch the signs.

This week was a little strange given the number of people that showed up. With only 5, it was quite the comparison from the previous weeks.  If I hadn’t know any better, I would have sworn that Christmas was right around the corner, which is about that time when we consider closing down due to the holidays and weather.  It wasn’t until the next day that I was reminded I had cancelled the meditation as we were due to start our vacation this Thursday night.

I took this opportunity to introduce some of the folks to a guide that I was introduced to while away at the Omega Centre a few weeks ago.  It was during this meditation that I watched this particular person walk though the thick woods as if he had to be be somewhere at a specific time.  From what seemed to be above his head, I watch as he turned down a path that was made from the small rolled rocks lining what would be a large stream  when the rain came. As he turned and continued walking. I noticed he made his way out into a meadow. As I continued to watched there was a reflection of a soft white/grey film that seemed to come from the sky and into the ground.  With no thought from him, he passed right though it and I heard a few kids call out “Joshua is here…Joshua is here”. It was then when I heard him speak and introduced himself  saying “I am Joshua, son of Ganya”.

The meditation tonight was an exercise in preparing the circle members to understand that its not just the action of meditating, but understanding the relationship of asking for help when they need it, and to see if they can make any connection with Joshua. I wonder if people come out to meditate or escape from their world they live in?

Either way its always a good place for them to be, within their own selves.
