In Spirit Heals, I talk a great deal about the difference between our personality or self-critic and our wisdom mind which is our true intelligence. Our true intelligence is fed from our Spirit through our intuition or what I call intuitive perception. Let me tell you a little about intuitive perception because it is only through this channel that we can both sense the best advice and also trust the importance of following that advice. Intuitive perception is a finer gradation of intuition. We think of intuition is a means to understand when we’re headed in a wrong direction, or to alert us to the desired direction we should move. Intuitive perception tells us why we are going in the wrong direction or more of the details of how and why we need to move in a different direction.

Chile has a desert at its head, yet its feet lie under ice. How much ice? 7,000 square miles of continental ice masses and hundreds of thousands of square miles of Antarctica. Compared to other countries, Chile’s contribution to global warming has been calculated as 0.2% . Despite this infinitesimal number, the world’s contribution is melting Antarctica which will result in the flooding of Chile’s coastline.

I suggest you simultaneously address what ails you from the body, mind and spirit perspective. Consult a physician and rule out any predominantly physical illnesses; be aware that emotional distress can lead to physically disorders that can be addressed and corrected. Taking a metaphysical approach can be the source of great healing.

According to Yoga, when the sun is between the angles of 60 degrees above and below the horizon it affects the earths magnetic field as well as what could be termed the magnetic field of our own psyches. This invariably causes a dip in our energy and outlook. Its no accident that “Happy Hour” occurs at this time. This represents most peoples mundane method to uplift themselves. Because every dark cloud has a silver lining, these twilight times provide an opportunity for powerful inner growth and healing. If we can find a way to meditate between 4 and 7 AM and 4 and 7 PM we can make much progress in our inner growth. Also, the lung meridians are most open around 5AM so the benefits of breathing at that time are enhanced.

Grace is actually the healing energy of Spirit that helps our body listen to a steady, reassuring inner message, one that helps us settle our fears and struggles and turn them into food for our spiritual journey. When we put our hands over our heart center and realize that we are sending ourselves love and recognize the impact it has inside us–that’s grace. The healing response in our body is grace in action, Divine Love in action, helping us on our journey of spiritual empowerment and healing.

In time the harmony and peace we desire will no longer come and go in each passing moment. As we continue our efforts to attune and align ourselves with the God of our Heart, all that we need will be provided for us. What our lives hold is our truth. No longer will we feel the need to be beggars at the banquet of life. Our opportunity comes from holding in every thought moment a sense of the Divine presence that pervades our universe, and knowing we are not ever alone.

Jorge Luis Delgado has given us Andean Awakening: An Inca Guide to Mystical Peru. From cover to cover, Andean Awakening is a walk with Delgado through “Mystical Peru” and his own spiritual evolution. We follow Jorge as he quite unintentionally becomes recognized in his community as a chacaruna or “bridge person who helps one cross from one state of consciousness to other states of consciousness or other realms.” The story continues up to and through the life of Jorge as “Peru’s premier spiritual tour guide.”
