Songs of Serenity ... by Ranjana Paul

Green apples, purple violets

Amazing blue skies over lush green valley

Tall trees that whistle in the wind.

A roaring stream winds downhill;

Cascading waters roll over rocks.

The songs of the wild over the roaring falls.

Pretty flowers on river stones

Baby birds, cute!

Come, fly with Me!!

Spirit Walk ... by Ranjana Paul

I close my eyes and watch the purple light

It spins clock-wise in the dark.

I watch as eyes appear; single eyes and pairs.

Like a slide show, eyes just appear and disappear.

Eyes with fear, eyes with a tear;

Eyes half closed and eyes too scared;

Eyes that are shocked and eyes in prayer.

Just eyes; faceless eyes appear and disappear.

Who do they belong to?  Past lives? or ancestors?

I send healing to both and watch for more to appear.

Rarely, a face appears; eyes closed in prayer.

Serene and centered; am I there?

Feeding a Shaman's Mesa

I


















I began building my mesa as I danced the medicine wheel with 'The Four Winds Society'; I'm still building it. I cherish my mesa; it does feel personal. According to this path of the Inca Shaman, I'm my Mesa; my Mesa is me. A mesa holds a medicine woman's collection of sacred objects and stones (khuyas). This is the Medicine and is used for healing the self and clients. Each item has a different energy, purpose and ability. It is like a Native American's medicine bundle. It is my bundle that is used for healing, it is truly the Shaman's tool.

So how does one take care of one's Mesa?

I do breath work with / without it every day. My mesa sits open being fed by my breath, wishes and connection to spirit. Some times if I'm feeling agitated about something I blow that into my mesa stones and usually I do a chakra clearing following that and I feel cleared. When I feel lazy to do the chakra clearing (it usually takes an hour for me each time) I can blow the issue into my mesa or write it out and put it in my mesa and it will mikhuy (mulch) the issue for me; or, in other words, transform it for me. I'm supposed to take my mesa with me everywhere. I definitely have it with me during fire ceremonies.

A common question among energy workers who carry Mesas is if it is OK to use the Mesa stones for reiki. I was told by my teachers that it is an individual decision; one should ask the Mesa about it. Personally, I use mine for reiki healing too.

I feed my mesa ... I'd put a bunch of dry sage in there at the very beginning and also had added some lavender flowers at some point. The feed that looks wasted, I remove and feed to fire or to Mother earth. I've fed my Mesa with a box of chocolate and pack of sugar in the past. Currently I have a bunch of used cactus thorns in it to mulch a certain issue having to do with cactus thorns.

Today, we had a gathering for fire breathing at one of our Tucson Pacha and collectively, we each fed our mesas and did breath work.

I let the sage, lavender flowers, oak leaves, cedar wood shavings and a few other herbs remain in there for now. The feed that looked wasted ... fresh basil leaves and some white flowers, I removed to feed to fire or to Mother earth.

I fed my Mesa with coffee beans ... this was a first time food for my Mesa.  I also fed it with a Native American Nine Grain Mixture, Myrrh, Sunflower Seeds, Willow flowers and seeds, dried herb of rosemary and essential oils of sweet orange, lavender and lemon grass. 
I cleansed it with smudging smoke of Palo Santo, Sage, Sweet grass and a clearing mist and played bells and tibetan sound bowls over it. When done, I closed my mesa, tied the Peruvian ribbon around it and wound my pi stone around it. Then I fed it over fire; the same fire that I'd used to feed the seeds of my Munay-ki rites.

Continuing the Work after the South Class ... Part III

"We don't see things the way they are;
We see things the way we are."
... Talmud

... (Continued from 'Continuing the Work after the South Class ... Part II')

Today, I had my first full, in-person healing session with a fully gifted Shaman.  In spite of all the self clearing, I was experiencing some flat pain on my left upper torso. 

I started my focus from around the years 2004 -2005...

A cousin from my paternal had visited my Dad's and she is known to do sorcery.

Then, within a couple of months, I lost everything within a few months ... job, family, home, etc.

People have gotten in my way and taken what is mine.  Now, this woman in class openly declared she'd take what is mine.  My dad did that when I was a kid ... it's been an old pattern.

Issues List ... Stories that came up for me:

People just take what is mine

People take from me without my permission

People just grab and take from me and leave me to die.

People just take what is mine

People threaten me and make me feel unsafe

People try to put their words in my mouth

People try to bully me and pick fights with me for no reason

People steal from me without my permission

My healer used a pendulum while I talked to her about my issue.  Then, I was asked to pick a stone from her mesa.  At first, almost immediately, one stone spoke to me; then two others.  I picked the one that spoke to me first.  I blew my issues into that stone.  Then I sat and my healer removed a poison dart from the back left of my shoulder.  It had spread to my arms and upper left torso.  I still feel sore at the spot where it had entered.  This was sent by someone who'd felt jealous of me and had sorcery written on it.  

Next, I lay down on her table and she tested my chakras to locate the affected chakras.  Chakras two, three, five six and seven were affected.  She started working on my second and then third chakras.  

While she worked on my second chakra, I felt some pressure in my sixth and seventh chakras ... this was because of some upper world pieces like vows that had been put on me that I'd no say in.  There were other pieces that were in the lower world.

Then she worked on my third chakra and found some ancestral links that were not yet ready to be worked on.  Then she did some tracking and went on to find the core issue behind this pattern that I'd attracted / had affinity for.  The core issue was "worthiness."  At its worse, this shows up in my life as thoughts and feelings like "life has no value."

Then she did a few more extractions ... one was in my diaphragm and the other was in my lower left torso.  The second one moved around and opened up a part of a deeper layer; so I now felt pressure in my throat.  I still feel like someone / something is strangling me; but she decided to end it here and asked me to observe what came up during the next few weeks while I integrated the feeling of 'worthiness' into my being.  

I loved the session and felt much gratitude for her help with the matter.

"Creation is incomplete without Me"

...

"I'm Worthy;

I'm invaluable"

Day 2: 

I won't accept this cousin's son because I hate his dad... related to my cousin by marriage.

Childhood memories / issues around mom and abandonment / rejection, etc. ... sent reiki to her without asking and had a release ... Issue still unresolved.

Joyeeta's issue in my throat ... I've some affinity there.

Control / spying dad issue resolved.

 I just finished sending 3 hrs reiki about 40 min ago... I used Aquamarine ... a very soul healing stone. Angels had recommended it for me about 2.5 yrs ago and at the gem show a vendor guy gave it to me for free. I've had it by my bed side ever since ... remembered and felt gratitude about receiving vs. people taking from me.

Continuing the Work after the South Class ... Part II

For the past few days, there has been an entity in my sixth chakra.   This is in addition to another one that I'd come across in my South class.  I'd been triggered by this one in class; but realized the nature and location only about ten days after the event.  The story is as follows...

One evening, as I was waiting to speak to my teacher, this woman just came up to me and triggered me big time ... she asked me if I was tired and I replied that I was fine.  In a mean tone she said she was going to just take my energy and walked away.  I'd never even noticed her before that.

Issues List ... Stories that came up for me:

People just take what is mine

People threaten me and make me feel unsafe

It is not safe to be around people

I don't like people

People dump their shit in my garden

People dump their shit in my river

People try to put their words in my mouth

People try to bully me and pick fights with me for no reason

People take from me without my permission

My life is in danger

I'm in danger from her; I should stay away from her and keep her away from me.

People just grab and take from me and leave me to die.

People are mean, etc., etc.

I left for dinner intending not to be anywhere near her for the rest of my stay.

About ten days   after I came home, the memory still triggered me big time one evening and work on it (People just take what is mine, they just grab it and take it without my permission ... only one issue) with my Mesa bundle.  This was a visitor / entity / attachment issue and this one was stuck to my third eye chakra in a big way!  Unlike the first one that moved around from chakra to chakra (I'd uncovered in class), this one was stuck in one place  and any amount of Illumination on self did not seem to help.    

I finally attempted to work it out of my chakra system by applying what insight I had gained on attempts on clearing out my first visitor.  I used SSR chakra clearing with some Karuna symbols.  It took a few days; because it had moved from my sixth to my seventh chakra and in a few days, moved back to the sixth and had finally cleared out to my knowledge...  

Then it was back again and this morning, my heart, sixth and seventh chakras were spinning anti-clockwise and I felt under the weather all day.  

The last few days, I had one in my heart from attempting to work on another acquaintance who had heart related issue.  I finally worked on it this morning; a routine 'Illumination' on self did not help.  Then I used my extraction crystal ... during a crystal journey to this Mother crystal, this one had shown me its purpose.  I passed this crystal over my heart, sixth and seventh chakras and got the heart and seventh chakras to spin clock-wise once again.  The sixth chakra was still spinning anti-clockwise and any amount of clearing didn't help.

Tonight, I checked on it again and tried more chakra clearing with no results.  Upon moving my sensing hand over my sixth chakra, I sensed something really heavy and wondered if it was by Munay-Ki bands or an attachment.  Then I used reiki extraction technique, asked angel Michael to take care of it and ran my extraction crystal over the area in the aura plus, I used a space clearing solution.  It cleared for a moment, but came back again; at this time I concluded that the heaviness was a blockage or entity and not my bands, the aura had felt lighter momentarily.  As a last resort for the night, I used IET with angel Gabriel and it looks clear for now ... The morning after.

Meanwhile, I've asked my Munay-Ki gifter to take a look at it... and two days later, I had my first in-person session with a full Shaman ... (Continuing the Work after the South Class ... Part III)
