なぜそんなに多くの人が毎年古代の神聖なサイトを参照してくださいか？ なぜそんなに多くの人々はイギリスのストーンヘンジ、またはエジプトのピラミッドに描かれています。 何が起きているの？

英国の古代聖地へのガイドとしての私の経験では、人々がこれらの旅を作る様々な理由があります。 いくつかのためにこのような聖杯の意味を見つけるために個人的な検索にアーサー王伝説を次のようなクエストです。 他のものに対しては我々の祖先のパスを歩いて近代的な巡礼です。 他の人は本能的に治癒が謎に包まれ、これらのいずれかの場所でそれらを待っていることを知っています。 旅行に決断を促すにせよ、この種の旅は、ほとんど常に変革です。

サインを読む
私たちの先祖は密接に地球を知っていたし、彼女の知恵を理解していた。 我々は地球の自然の力の感覚を何よりも地球にかなり近づいて交わりに生きることはきめ細かな全身の意識だった。

5000年前に住んでいる新石器時代の社会の一員としての自分を想像してみてください。 あなたが一緒に歩いていると突然、あなたの手や足のうずきまたは多分あなたの体全体のエネルギーの衝動に駆られる。 あなただけのエネルギーのホットスポットを介して歩いている。 あなたが癒しや精神的な洞察力の目的のために現在のエネルギーで動作するおそれのある構造を構築することを選択する場所です。
今日はこれと同じ神聖なサイトは、過ぎ去った時代のちょうど死んだ遺物として表示される可能性があります。 しかし、神話は別の話をする世代に渡る。 例えば、それは石が真夜中や満月で飲むために水に降りることがいくつかのストーンサークルのように述べています。 この民話は、ストーンサークル、常に存在する地下水と水によって運ばれている地球のエネルギーとの間の接続について語っている。 これも季節、月の満ち欠けや、昼夜に応じて異なります。 すべての聖なる井戸は、それらに接続されている癒しの物語がある。 我々は強力な地球のエネルギーの電流がホメオパシーレメディのようなものに水をオンにしていることを認識するとき、これらの物語は完全に筋が通っている。

神聖な空間

もともとすべてのエネルギースポットは自然の中で単にあった - 丘の上、樹木が茂った雑木林、春。 木は私たちに自然エネルギーを囲んでの結果を教えるために最初でした。 エネルギーが含まれており、たっぷり充電された空間を作成するために構築することができます。 ドルイドは、この理由のための聖なる木立ですべての儀式を行った。 私達はすべて私達がエネルギーを感じていない場合でも、依然としてこれらの"マジック"の場所を感じることができる、彼らは私たちに感謝の驚異の沈黙の意味を、作成。 ストーンサークルのビルダーは、このテーマを開発し、エネルギーを制御するために、結晶質岩を使用していました。 今日は、私たちはすべて我々のコンピュータで結晶（シリコンチップ）を利用して、私たちの先祖は、実際には異なる目的のために、異なるスケールで同じ技術を使用していた。
中世の教会や大聖堂は、しばしばこれらのエネルギーのホットスポットが彼らのキリスト教の儀式をエンパワーすることを確実に、ストーンサークルのサイトに建設された。

意図

どのような観光客の訪問と変革の経験との間の決定的な違いを作ることは私たちの目的です。 精神的な旅に神聖なサイトのスーパーチャージャー雰囲気でこの献身的な意図を組み合わせることで発生する異常なものの扉を開きます。 古代聖地のパワーと可能性を秘めている - いくつかのレベルで我々はまだ我々の祖先は知っていた知っている。 まだ、私たちの論理的な思考は、多くの場合、実際にはそうではないことができるがわかります。 我々はしばらくの間、懐疑心を静かで魔法が可能であるかのように動作するように準備されている場合、マジックは実際に可能になっていません。 アルバートアインシュタインはかつて"、彼の目が閉じている。彼は畏敬の念で心を奪われているが不思議と立って、もはや一時停止は死んだも同然誰であることができる"と述べたように

The tradition of pilgrimage has been a time-honored practice in virtually all cultures beyond recorded history, its popularity undiminished to this day. Regardless of the goal,

a basic purpose of a pilgrimage is to make a special journey to a site that offers a unique connection with the sacred, the supernatural, the mysterious or the extraordinary in some way. The journey's destination brings the pilgrim to a place “where the physical world meets the spiritual world.”

Religious pilgrimage is no doubt the most familiar kind and nearly all faiths encourage their followers in such journeys. For millennia Christians have aspired to visit the Holy Land of Jerusalem or places where Christian saints lived and performed their deeds. The annual Muslim pilgrimage, the Hajj, calls pilgrims to Mecca in Saudi Arabia to circle the Ka'Ba, the square, black-shrouded structure that houses the sacred Black Stone. The veneration of this sacred stone, thought now to be a meteorite, actually predates the formation of Islam. Hindus travel to the Ganges River in India seeking spiritual purification and believe life is incomplete without bathing at least once in its waters. In their eyes the river is a goddess, Ganga ma, (mother Ganga) who offers renewal and salvation.

Pilgrimage journeys are often undertaken for purposes of healing, be it of body, mind, or spirit. The destination may be humanmade such as the shrine of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupre in a little Canadian town of the same name just outside of Quebec. The miraculous healings that have occurred there for several hundred years attract more than a million people every year. People stand in awe before ancient monuments such as Stonehenge in England, its towering, silent stones erected by our ancestors. It attracts over 800,000 visitors per year and several thousand gather on the summer solstice to watch the sunrise at this ancient and mystical site. Visitors from a variety of religious backgrounds have reported a strong sense of mystery and spiritual energy there.

On every continent Earth's natural wonders also are points of pilgrimage offering their stunning beauties and grandeurs as balm for the spirit. A very few to mention are the Grand Canyon, the towering plume of Old Faithful's geyser in Yellowstone National Park, and sacred mountains such as Mt. Fuji in Japan and Mt. Shasta in northern California. Ayers Rock in Australia, its native name, Uluru, like Mt. Shasta is considered a place of mystical power by native peoples and New Age practitioners alike. And circling all the continents is the Ocean herself, a source of inspiration and renewal for those of us who dwell inland.

On a smaller scale, a labyrinth is very much a place “where the physical world meets the spiritual world.” The labyrinth's gently curved path leads the walker on a quiet, contemplative journey to its center. In my work with labyrinth I have witnessed people utilizing the labyrinth's pathway for something that can well be described as an “inner pilgrimage”. So much of modern life urges us to focus on the outer world, but more and more people are seeking ways to explore “inner landscapes”. In my view, this yearning accounts in part for the resurgence of interest in the labyrinth, an ancient spiritual resource. I invite you to read my article on this at www.GoldenSpiralJourney.com

Other means to pursue a personal pilgrimage of our vast and unexplored inner world can be through meditation, journal or poetry writing, and seeking places of quiet and silence where “we can hear the soul speaking”.

Pilgrimage has always been and is still “work of the soul” from the planning, to the traveling, to reaching the journey's destination. If you do not come from a religious or cultural tradition of pilgrimage, the call is sometimes more subtle. The poet Mary Oliver poses the question, “Tell me, what is it you plan to do / with your one wild and precious life?” There is an ever-increasing desire to live our lives from a deeper place, to spend more of our time “being” and less in “doing.” Oliver's question beckons us to step outside the confines of our consumer focused, ego-driven culture. For those seeking this more conscious and spiritually-focused way of living, a pilgrimage journey offers abundant support in searching out this larger, more holistic life.

私は"私の人生の残りの部分"をどのような処理を実行するか疑問に、私の第五十年に入ったとき巡礼の私自身の経験になった。 Some truly marvelous synchronicities (a good sign you're on the right path) brought me to Glastonbury, England, and to its evocative and mystical energies. It has been a place of pilgrimage for a thousand years and more as early peoples came to drink and bathe in the healing waters of the two springs issuing from beneath the brooding hill or “Tor”. Of Glastonbury's many myths, one is that the Holy Grail was brought here by Joseph of Arimatheia who is said to have founded the first Christian church in England. It grew into a fabulous and famous Abbey that drew devout pilgrims for hundreds of years. The legend of the Grail grew to encompass the mythical life of King Arthur and Guinevere, the energies of that story woven into all the rest. Down through the centuries, the Chalice Well at the “red spring”, sacred to the Divine Feminine, maintained its presence not far beyond the Abbey walls. In the summer of 2001, just another New Age pilgrim, I set foot on Glastonbury's streets and climbed the Tor to find my own revelations.

The Chalice Well, set within its beautiful and peace-filled Garden, continues to draw people from all over the world in quest of the healing energies of its red-tinged waters, rising ever rising from its deep hidden source. During a visit there one summer afternoon, I saw a Spanish pilgrimage group clad in white outfits performing a healing ritual in the shallow bathing pool. Observing them, I was struck by how timeless this scene was and how all of us in the Garden that day were following in the footsteps of countless generations of pilgrims.

What one finds on a pilgrimage is often ineffable, and while I can only speak for myself, beyond a doubt my annual pilgrimages to Glastonbury continue to enlarge my life. I invite you to explore this ages-old pilgrimage destination by visiting my website. And since one article cannot possibly cover this tremendously large topic, I encourage you to explore further. Wonderful resources are just a mouse-click away on the World Wide Web. Enjoy your journey and Bright Blessings!

'Vegging out Vacation' or 'Getting hit with a stick in Buddhist Bhutan' – is there a 3rd alternative?

We used to go on vacations in order to 'vacate', to empty out our built up stress, our 'backed up' clogged up energies. We'd plop ourselves on the beach just 'vegging' and often using alcohol to force our bodies to relax. This is the old model that we are shifting out of. And then there came an 'Eco Travel' trend, or 'Adventure Travel' with mountain biking and 'ziplining' or white water rafting. All fun and energizing. But we still weren't able to 'Be still and know That I Am God' – we still weren't able to truly relax and receive. So the pendulum swung from total 'vacating, vegging out vacations' to 'Adventure Activity Vacations'- strenuous physical activity Adventures. As with all polarity paradigms the pendulum swings between the oppo-sites and eventually finds center balance.

Now there is a new balance emerging – the best of all worlds' type of travel coming forth-

Eco Spiritual Travel – where enjoying, caring, appreciating the Natural World – being in touch with Mother Nature combines with personal Spiritual growth & a rejuvenating, relaxing vacation.

Is it 'Work' or 'Play'?

We also used to have very distinct boundaries between 'work' & 'play'. We had to 'work' in order to save up enough $ and time to 'play' or 'take time off'. This model is also starting to melt, blur and merge into something new where work & play are joining into something new.

The new model is becoming more of – just Being. We are working-playing-being-doing all together at once. Perhaps we will outgrow the word 'work' and we will come up with a new word – or perhaps no word.

'No Pain, No Gain' is the old Model

When we started doing 'workshops', retreats, awakening seminars – we were still under the old model of 'no pain, no gain'. We felt in order to get something out of our 'workshop' there had to be some 'pain' involved. We had to get up early, spend most of the day in our 'work' shop with short breaks for food – and with very little time left over for just fun. These models were the right stepping stones at the time – at least we were 'working' on our Selves and not for someone else. But now things are moving towards more merging- unifying ways of being & doing in our lives.

What if we can combine Fun, Relaxing & Play with personal Awakening & Spiritual Growth? And how about we add contributing to the health of the Planet and the Ecosphere to that? This is a 'light bulb moment' when we see it -a win-win-win for everyone and everything involved.

The old model of 'if it's good for me it tastes bad or is hard and no fun' or 'if it's fun it has to be either illegal, immoral or fattening' – those days are leaving.

Eco Spiritual Travel - is travel where you go somewhere you really enjoy, can really feel good in body, mind & spirit and enjoying Nature-Mother Earth- the Eco Sphere. Part of your 'vacation' may be to lie on the beach in Kona, Hawaii but not for all day for days on end. That's like eating too much cheesecake! Instead your day might look like this – you may get up leisurely around 8-9am, enjoy the open air restaurant breakfast – an hour after breakfast you join your Spiritual Retreat Seminar being conducted under the palm trees . You do some breathing meditation and learn to feel your Inner Body more fully. After these simple timeless spiritual exercises & some social interaction time with likeminded new friends you have free time to swim with turtles, go into town to shop, or read a book in the hammock, go visit a Kona coffee farm or snorkel on the reef. Then in the late afternoon you meet back up with your retreat group and you go for short drive to a protected bay and swim with wild dolphins carefully respecting the dolphins' natural boundaries. Then a Sunset meditation at an ancient Heiau – temple area where you can feel the ancient rhythms of true old Hawaii. And back to the resort for evening dinner overlooking the protected lagoons, watching the turtles swim below you. Private time, beach time, group spiritual time, dolphin time, sunset time, food time, hammock time… true en-join-ment.

En-join-ment = the new model is that when we truly en-joy we are 'In Joy' – en'join'ing back up with God, reconnecting with our own Spirit.

The old model is that we can only reach 'God', 'Salvation', 'Nirvana', 'Enlightenment' through pain, struggle, sore backs from meditation postures, having to 'sacrifice', fighting our minds to be 'quiet',

“It's in our Pleasure we find our Treasure.”

Do flowers not en-joy opening into blooming? Do trees struggle? Does the Ocean have to 'work' when its waves move? Do Birds effort and huff and puff when flying? Isn't this effortless flow perhaps what St. Francis was pointing to when he quotes – “ Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow – they neither toil nor spin – and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.”

What is a flow-er? Maybe the Angels of Language left clues for us – a flower is a Flow-er, a flow of God-Spirit Energy erupting into our world to remind us to also surrender to this Flow of God-Source.

Sound too good to be true? To be able to relax, have fun, have pleasure all while Spiritually Awakening, respecting Mother Nature, and contributing financially to a group providing sanctuaries for animals?

It's happening now. These Eco Spiritual Vacations are a growth segment of travel for the future. They are here and available now. Small, boutique operators are creating truly connecting, spiritual experiences for small groups of travelers all over the world – that feed the travelers and the whole Eco Sphere – Mother Earth at the same time.

“It's not either/or — it's both and more!” OSHO

So why not make your next Vacation an 'Eco Spiritual Travel' Vacation – and feed your Self, re-connect with your Spirit while en-Joy-ing Nature-Mother Earth-the Eco Sphere.
