Awaken Embodied Radiance
“We are living in a time that is calling for new models.
We are being called to claim our right role, our higher destiny, and our deeper goals.
We have the capacity to harvest the fruits of our human genius.
The challenge of our times calls us to reach up and connect to our Larger Story, so we can tap into our potential and transform our world.
We have been using a small portion of our magnificent gifts and forget all too often that we were born to accomplish miracles!”
JEAN HOUSTON, PHD
Part of living the Larger Story is to upgrade your identity from how you survived as a child. The best way to do that is to identify with the highest part of you. To know that you are made and part of a Greater Source is such a blessing.
Paula suffers from acute depression She is often identified with her pain, loneliness and the lack in her life. Because she feels disconnected and doesn’t believe in a Higher Power, she sometimes feels lost in a sea of hopelessness. Feeling separate from Source is the greatest tragedy of life.
As infants most of us suffered from some glitches throughout our developmental stages. The conclusions we made then are like ruts in the road of our psyche and are similar to deep grooves in the rivers of our subconscious. These reactive streams form our beliefs, which often make us live in smaller, more limited and contracting ways.
Paula unconsciously slips into the emotional feelings of being unloved and unsupported and is locked into those beliefs. Although she is beautiful, intelligent and gracious, she doesn’t feel worthy of love. She is locked into a small identity.
Your daily life is your spiritual ashram. It is fundamentally important to practice the “arts of inner hygiene,” where you work to cleanse thoughts and reactions. Jean Houston says, “every day you must clear away the old useless weeds of your mind.”
Once you stop identifying with your conditioning, you can let go of any programming that says, “I can’t” and intentionally open the sails of your heart to the Truth of who you are. The Truth is that we all are connected to the Divine! Luckily I believed it, but now I truly experience it with my whole body.
I have been synthesizing and writing about the Goddess Warrior on the Hero’s Journey as a new myth to awaken for
four decades. It is a wonderful model to emulate and combines the best of the Collective Unconscious and gives a step-by-step process to wake-up from conditioning.
When I was introduced to calling in Universal Energy, it was as if a light bulb turned on inside me. I realized that this was the missing piece that further exemplified the Goddess Warrior. It was so profound! I knew it was the secret of living the Greater Life, and a way and means to tune into the Infinite Resource available to us.
Universal Energy is everywhere as a cosmic field that surrounds all of us. When you tap into it, you are deeply connected to a benevolent force of goodness and hope.
Energy is the current of life and as humans we have a limited amount of it. Tapping into and embodying the Radiance is like having a juicy and powerful bank account of life force to enhance your personal energy. I find it a warm, soothing, sustaining and uplifting essence that fills me with more buoyancy, strength and bliss.
I learned to feel it by holding my left hand up and my right hand down on my knees as I sat and asked for Universal Energy to flow through me. I began to feel a trickle entering my left hand. Like a buzzing pulse, I could sense a current when I set my intention to call it in.
Eventually I felt a flowing stream filling my heart and chest. It became a blissful experience where I felt connected to my surroundings. I experienced my body being stretched as it merged with my surroundings. Eventually I learned to pull the Universal Energy into my pelvis and legs and see different colors, which I call the Rays of Radiance.
Radiance is another name for Universal Energy. This vital flow is available to you, if you call it to you. The Radiance is God/Goddess stuff. It is vital cosmic energy.
When you regularly tap into Radiance, you are drawn upward and connect with the Universal Force of Light and Love and as you bring it into your body, you will be able to manifest your dreams more easily.
Here is a simple, but effective practice to do to connect your body with Universal Energy:
Stand with your legs apart wider than your hips and your arms straight out your sides.
Place your left palm up and your right hand down.
You are in a star position.
Say and intend, “Universal Energy is flowing to and through me. I am one with it.”
Feel the hairs on your arms buzzing with the cosmic life force that is streaming into you.
Stay here a little while feeling the flow and intention.
If your arms get tired, let them drop and rest and then come back to your star position.
Try to remember to do it a couple times a day in the sunshine if possible.
While you are sitting, breathe deeply and feel this Field expand as you open to it through your upright left hand and right hand down on your knee.
Take some extensive rhythmic breaths. Imagine particles of cosmic Light flowing into your being and sense the Universal juice feeding your soul.
With each inhale draw Universal Energy into your body and feel as if you are subtly being pumped with Radiance. Focus inside your physical body.
Notice if there is a pulse or movement in your left hand. Call it in with your intention. Open to receive it and allow it to stream into your body
Imagine that you are allowing the rays of luminosity to be moved along with your breath.
As you ask to let the Radiance flow into you, let yourself be a channel and container of Divine input.
Let your left hand collect the all-embracing connection. Quietly observe some motion flowing through your hand.
Let your intention enable and empower the Love and Light.
Say “I am One with the Divine, I feel your flow and Light. I connect with the supportive Shakti of the Universe. Light fills me and I am your conduit of Love.”
If you are not physically feeling it, just imagine the Universal Flow streaming in, swirling and gushing in and filling and illuminating your body.
Allow the image of it coming into your hands and move through you as a stimulating buzz.
Many experience Radiance in the heart area, but consciously pull it fully into all of your body.
Feel the Energy stream in and bring it to your belly, womb and root. Place your hands there with your left hand cupped to continue to receive the Universal movement.
Acknowledge the desire for connection to the Divine Oneness.
Open yourself to the flow of Divine blessings.
Let the flow trickle in and ripple gently as if funneling in beautiful energizing support.
Feel the support as if the Divine Mother is nurturing and holding you as her child.
Sense it bodily as the pulsing and vibrating frequency of the Universal Light and Love and all the Divine Grace fill you and lift you.
When you are experiencing Embodied Radiance, it affects all who meet you, for you are deeply empathic. You can feel more, know more and sense more. You can manifest more and care more deeply about the earth’s ecology and its social and moral order. In spite of what’s happening, you recognize others as Divine beings hiding behind their wounding.
SoulSource Radiance System is a masterful process.It is based on the symbolism within the Goddess Warrior on the Hero’s Journey and as well as many spiritual teachings and quantum healing.
This step-by-step process is rooted in deep mythic traditions or archetypes of human motivation and behavior. One is to release fear and choose love. Using the multiple meaning symbolism of this model gives a clear and simple path to awakening to who you truly are, which is living the Larger Story.
It is more than just a psychological system or code of conduct. Embodying Radiance is connecting bodily with Universal Energy and co-creating more fully with Source.
This system and these archetypes exist within you and are available to you right now. With your intention and these tools you not only transform yourself but can also change the world.
