This is a deeply-felt
rendition of a classic. You'll be amazed at how beautiful and
touching the lyrics are when sung simply and clearly.
I see trees of green,
red roses, too
I see them bloom for
me and for you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful
world
I see skies of blue,
clouds of white
The bright blessed
day and the dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful
world
The colors of the
rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
of people passing by
I see friends shaking
hands, saying how do you do
They're really
saying, I love you.
I hear babies cry, I
watch them grow
They'll learn much
more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful
world
Dear Friends,
I am delighted to
offer you a highly effective tool for bringing peace and serenity to
your mind and heart.
For the last
several weeks, I have been feeling an extra boost of angel power
around me. I didn’t know why, but I could feel that it was intended
for a purpose. Then, when Quado enfolded it into two messages, I
began to understand that I was intended for you as well.
First, I received
a beautiful message many of you wrote to me about, “Angels Sing Your
Name.” Then I received the message below, “A Gift from an Angel,” a
guided visualization that gives you the power to bring your mind to
sweet, serene silence.
I loved “A Gift
from an Angel” so much, that I decided to record it and work with it
daily, so that I might share with you how to use it in your life.
The results were remarkable and I am delighted to share them with
you now.
I used this
meditation in several ways. I used it alone on days when I could
only spare a few minutes for meditation. I found that the seven
minutes I spent listening and visualizing with the angels had the
restful and clarifying effect of a full half-hour.
On days when I
had more time, I listened to the recording before my mantra
meditation. I found that it quieted my mind down so quickly that my
mantra meditation was much more peaceful and effective.
And the best part
of all is that by using it every day, it became a tool I could use
during the day, even under stress. Whenever I found that my mind
was focused on a worrisome thought, reciting the same thought over
and over as our minds will sometimes do, I just mentally pulled out
the angel’s wand, dipped it into the rosewood box, and touched the
light of silence to my forehead. A flood of blue-white silence then
entered my mind, giving me the space and time to regain my bearings.
I hope this
meditation
resonates as deeply with you as it has with me.
A Gift from an Angel
Today, you will
receive a gift from an angel. A precious gift that you can use
every day for the rest of your life.
Take a deep
breath in, and then release it and let yourself drift down until you
are completely relaxed.
See now that
there are two angels hovering in the air before you. They are
bright and beautiful, their white gowns fluttering gently from the
breeze created by their slowly moving wings.
The angel on the
left comes forward. She holds out a golden silk net and asks you to
put into it all of your burdens from the past. And so now, do
this. Give her the burdens of regret that you are carrying on your
back, all of the things you wish you had done differently. Give her
the disappointments and frustrations when you did not receive what
you needed and desired. Hand it all over and feel yourself lighten.
And now, reach
into your heart and remove the heavy stones of unforgiveness, every
bit of blame and anger that lodges there, deep in your heart.
Remove these stones and put them into her silken net. Feel your
heart lighten.
Now the angel on
the right comes forward. She also holds out a golden silk net and
asks you to put into it all of your fears of the future. Take every
worry and anxiety and give it to her. Remove every doubt about your
abilities to handle what may come and put them into her net. Take
your fear of the imagined future and hand it over.
And now the two
angels fly to the heavens with their golden silk nets, full of your
burdens, doubts and fears. They hold them up to the light where
they are instantly transmuted into love.
And a gentle rain
begins to fall on you, a rain of pure and cleansing love. Your
burdens have been accepted by the light and completely resolved
within it.
And now you are
deeply blessed with love.
It flows and
flows, soothing and purifying. You are showered with love and peace
as the angels sing.
And now you feel
completely cleansed, completely whole.
A third angel
appears before you, brighter and bigger than the other two, her
wings made of glowing light. She is holding an ancient and
beautiful box of rosewood inlaid with gold and silver, etched with
symbols that somehow seem familiar to you.
She opens the box
and you see a great light within, a light your mind instantly yearns
for. She dips a wand into the box and pulls out the light on the
tip of her wand. Slowly, she then lifts the wand toward your
forehead.
She pauses, looks
into your eyes and asks permission to give you this great gift. You
nod your head. Yes, yes, you will accept this gift.
And so, she
touches the wand to your forehead.
The minute the
light touches your forehead, your mind is filled with peaceful
silence. It is full and delicious, satisfying, a silence unlike any
you have ever experienced, a silence thick with peace and love. A
silence so deep and so wide, so bright and full, that all thought
recedes.
And the light
within your mind is growing brighter and brighter, as you begin to
see that silence begets silence and that even one drop of silence
from the angel’s wand can cause a brighter and brighter silence to
envelop your mind, filling it so that the old ways of being and
thinking have no home within your pure and sparkling mind.
And as she closes
the box, the glowing silence remains in your mind, peaceful and
serene.
And now she hands
these gifts to you, the box of glowing silence and the wand to pull
it out and place it in your mind. These are yours to keep. These
are yours to have forever. And as you open the box, you see that it
has been refilled with glowing light, and you know in your heart
that this will ever be so.
If the light of
silence in your own mind begins to dim, if old shadows begin to fill
it, you can simply open your rosewood box, inlaid with the symbols
of silence, dip in the wand, touch it to your forehead and instantly
your mind will be filled with peace, glowing with silence, and your
heart will have the space and time it needs to send healing love
throughout your entire body.
Ah, what a great
gift this angel has given you, the gift of silence, a treasure
beyond all imagining, and the power to give it to yourself whenever
you choose.
Angels
Sing Your Name
If all of the
love in the world were contained in one star, it would shine for
you.
If all the
answers in the world were contained in one word, that word would
speak your name.
If the full sea
of peace were contained in one drop of water, that drop of water
would be on your tongue.
You are the
beginning and the end, the alpha and omega, the source and answer,
the thought that reaches across time and the timeless beat of the
heart of God.
Your importance
is immeasurable, for you are what there is. The entire universe is
contained in one atom of your being. Each breath you take gives
life to all that is.
You do not have
to try to be this vital force. You simply are.
Now, right now,
go deeply into your heart and find the peace and love that reside
there. Now, right now, embrace yourself completely with love,
granting to yourself the right to be who you are, as you are,
without criticism and contempt, without dissatisfaction and
frustration, without blame and regret.
You, exactly as
you are, are good. You are what is needed. You are what is
wanted. The entire universe embraces you with love, and when it
does so, it simply embraces itself.
You cannot lose
the love that is there for you, for you are made of love. You
cannot lose the light that shines for you, for you are made of
light. You cannot disturb the peace that contains you, for you are
made of peace, peace and joy and light and love, all made manifest
in your being.
Simply be who you
are and you will hear the angels singing your name.
